Navigate the Gates of Antiquity in Final Fantasy XIII. Learn enemy weaknesses, find valuable items like Gil and Digital Circuits, and overcome challenging encounters.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Defeat the Crusader, noting it sustains half damage from physical attacks and benefits from preemptive strikes.
  2. 2
    Defeat the PSICOM Executioner, noting it is fast, agile, and sustains half damage on all attacks.
  3. 3
    Proceed up the stairs to face another Behemoth; sneak up on it for an easier fight. Deal with it like previous Alpha Behemoths, aiming for a quick Stagger before it switches to Exterminate mode.
  4. 4
    Search the nook to the right for 600 Gil.
  5. 5
    Proceed up the next set of stairs to face an enemy group of Watchdrones and a PSICOM Ranger.
  6. 6
    Find 2 x Digital Circuit in the northeast corner.
  7. 7
    Collect the items and run up the broken bridge until you reach the top.
Tips
  • For the Behemoth, push for a quick Stagger before it switches to Exterminate mode.
  • Sneak up on the Behemoth if possible to make the fight easier.
