04.)                         INTRODUCTION - G0400
=============================================================================
=============================================================================

Hello! I am Damir Kolar and I welcome you to sixth FFX-2 related project. Often
times a question arises on how to beat specific bosses, how to attain rare
items etc. Well, this is one of the reasons for creation of this in-depth FAQ -
to help you broaden your knowledge of lady luck dressphere and to provide you
with reasons why this dressphere is one of the best in the game in my opinion.
All that and lots of details, nowhere else but in this guide!



=============================================================================
=============================================================================
05.)                       READ THIS FIRST! - G0500
=============================================================================
=============================================================================
Main issues addressed in this section are:
=============================================================================
What are Reels and Dice skills you're talking about? ------------------ G0501
What do I need to start learning these skills? ------------------------ G0502
How do I operate the Reels? ------------------------------------------- G0503
Explaining the reels? ------------------------------------------------- G0504

Explaining the Dice? -------------------------------------------------- G0507
=============================================================================

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
A - WHAT ARE REELS AND DICE SKILLS YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT? - G0501
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Put shortly, Reels and Dice are two skills that lady luck dressphere can learn.
Reels skills can be distributed further into four subclasses: Attack Reels,
Magic Reels, Item Reels, Random Reels.

Likewise, Dice skills can be distributed further into two subclasses: Two Dice,
and Four Dice. All of these skills are explained more in depth in sections 6
and 7, respectively.


-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
B - WHAT DO I NEED TO START LEARNING THESE SKILLS? - G0502
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

You only need one simple prerequisite - getting lady luck dressphere. This
dressphere can be obtained in either CH3 or CH5. Here's how:

CH3 - visit Luca; there's Sphere Break tournament going on - your objective
     is to best three players and then challenge the other finalist, who
     turns out to be none other than Shinra; Shinra must be beaten in 15
     turns with quota of 50; it is recommended that after beating two
     players in qualifications you save your game - challenge and defeat
     third player before taking on Shinra; if you lose, simply reload

CH5 - if you failed to obtain lady luck dressphere in CH3, visit 'Luca -
     Basement B'; you'll find Shinra here - play him in Sphere Break; he's
     tougher this time around, for you need to beat him in 15 turns with quota
     of 100, but at least you can choose which entry coins you want, so all is
     not that bad; best him and lady luck dressphere is yours

Once lady luck dressphere is yours, you're half set only. Of the six abilities
this guide specializes into, only one is mastered from the start. You obtain:
- Attack Reels immediately after nabbing lady luck
- Magic Reels after accumulating 70 AP
- Item Reels after learning Magic Reels and accumulating 80 AP
- Random Reels after learning Item Reels and accumulating 120 AP
- Two Dice after accumulating 20 AP (requires 4 MP)
- Four Dice after learning Two Dice and accumulating 100 AP (requires 8 MP)

All of these abilities appear under Gamble main command when you enter the
battle. Simply select one of Reels attacks to spin slots, press X three times
hoping to get three same symbols and let it rip. If you're choosing Dice
attacks, select your target/s and confirm with X.


-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
C - HOW DO I OPERATE THE REELS? - G0503
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Operating the reels to your tastes is quite simple. All it requires is knowing
that symbols on the reels follow specific order, and that with help of START
button you can get any result you desire without too much trouble.

First thing I'll milk is the information on how are slots for all four Reels
skills set-up. For your convenience I've set up four charts which you can look
up just below.

D - EXPLAINING THE REELS? - G0504
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Does it seem confusing? Fret not, I'll explain how you should 'read' this. For
the example I shall use Slot 1 of Attack Reels. Here's an excerpt from that
slot that will appear as you attempt to stop the first slot:
