Explore the Central Junction and Zertinan Caverns in final fantasy xii. Find the Lambent Hat and the Sight Unseeing technick.
Walkthrough
- 1From your starting platform in the Central Junction, cross a bridge southeast to a smaller platform, then proceed east to a larger platform. Defeat any Urutan-Yensa encountered.
- 2From the central eastern platform, take the southwestern bridge to another platform. Defeat the Alraune present and search the western end for a chest that may contain a Lambent Hat (Mystic Armor 4).
- 3Return to the central eastern platform and take the eastern bridge to another platform. From here, you can go east back to Platform 1 - Refinery. Instead, cross a bridge southwest to a small platform with Alraune, then head southeast to a small platform with three chests. The southeastern chest may contain a Soldier’s Cap (Light Armor 4).
- 4Return to the central eastern platform and take the northwest bridge. Defeat any Urutan-Yensa, reach a platform, and turn west to descend ramps to the desert floor. Defeat Urutan-Yensa and potentially their Yensa pet. To the south, a chest may contain a Paramina Crossbow (Crossbows 2).
- 5Climb back up the ramps and cross a bridge east to another platform with ramps leading east to the desert. In this section, defeat Speartongues and Danbania along the northern edge. A chest here can yield a Round Shield.
- 6To the east along the cliffs, you will find a cave entrance to the Zertinan Caverns. Enter this cave.
- 7Follow the linear tunnel within the Zertinan Caverns. You will encounter Slimes. Slimes are weak to Earth, absorb Wind, and can inflict Slow, Aero, Sleep, and Blind. They may use Divide to create more Slimes. They can drop Green Liquid, Wind Stone, Water Mote, or a Winged Helm (Heavy Armor 3). You can steal Green Liquid, Wind Stone, or Sagittarius Gem, and Poach for a Pebble or Yellow Liquid.
- 8Continue down the tunnel. Slimes will be replaced by Speartongues. At a fork, search a small dead-end to the southeast to find an urn containing the Sight Unseeing technick. This technick allows a Blinded character to perform a death-blow attack, with success depending on level difference. It does not work on Rare Game, Marks, or undead.
- 9Return to the fork. The southwestern path is safer than the northwestern path with traps. Take the southwestern path, proceed northwest and north, and ascend a Slime-filled tunnel to reach a new area transition.
