Hey,all.This is a FAQ devoted to Guilty Gear X,quite possibly one of the very
best fighting games of all time.Sporting a very intuitive combo system,the
best graphics of any 2D fighter to date,and a killer heavy metal soundtrack,
this beast of a game is quite a package in my opinion.This game is well worth
the $50 you dish out for it.It should appeal to 2D fighter veterans and rookies
alike,as well.Also,if you are a fan of anime,like me,then I would definitely have
to recommend this game to you.Finally,this is my very first FAQ ever.I have always
been a huge fan of GameFAQS.com,so I thought it was about time I contributed to
this lovely website.^_^That said.....Welcome to the world of Guilty Gear X.

In the 22nd Century,mankind succeeded in harnessing the power of
magic,which provided for a limitless source of natural energy. Scientific thought,
as it was known,was outlawed through this world. But warring among the nations
continued,and eventually,a new breed of amazingly powerful biological
weapons was developed. This was the birth of the "Gears."
One day,from among the ranks of these slave-like Gears, a rebel appeared,
declaring himself capable of independent thought. This powerful being
possessed awesome fighting ability, and went by the name of "Justice". Enlisting
an army of fellow Gears from around the globe,he declared war on the
human race. In opposition,humankind formed the Sacred Order of Holy
Knights,whose sole purpose was to crush the Gear rebellion and wage a Holy
War against the renegade humanoids. After a period of countless battles,
which came to be known as the Crusades,Justice was eventually banished to an
impenetrable dimensional prison and the remaining Gears,now leaderless,were
hunted down one by one...
Five years later,a morbid sense of fear that Justice had been resurrected
enveloped the world. The Union of Nations,who looked gravely upon the current
state of affairs,organized an international fighting tournament to select
members suitable enough for inclusion in the Sacred Order of Holy Knights.
It was a cruel and suspicious affair,wherein criminals were allowed to compete
and the shedding of blood during battles was not only permitted,but common...
In the year 2180,Justice-the most powerful and diabolical Gear ever to have
been encountered by humans-was defeated in the international fighting tournament.
The remaining Gears,now leaderless,were hunted down and eliminated. Humankind
was finally free from the catastrophic menace brought on by the Gears.
However...less than a year after the incident,information about the
discovery of a particular Gear rose to the public's attention. The report
stated,"This Gear is functioning properly, even though its activities should be
inhibited by its lack of leadership. There are no signs of abnormalities
or physical damage. It is also noted that no civilians have been harmed,
either intentionally or accidentally. We have made several attempts to
eliminate the Gear,but due to its tremendous combat capabilities, we have
been unsuccessful. The number of casualties have yet to be confirmed. We are
currently keeping the Gear under surveillance." Gears are biological weapons
that are programmed to blindly obey the orders given to them by their
commander. In the absence of orders,they become passive and behave peacefully.
However,all existing Gears have had their memories erased by
Justice and without orders,they are incapable of doing anything. Not only do
they lack the instinct to protect themselves,they cannot even perform the
essential activities they need to keep themselves alive. As long as a Gear is
functioning properly,it should be following commands given by Justice.
Understandably,the news of this Gear that seemed to have a will of its own
stunned everyone. Humans became terrified by the possible emergence of a
second self-reliant Gear like Justice. To make matters worse,rumors were
flying that each nation was in possession of their own Gears for the purpose
of military use,driving anti-Gear sentiment among humans to an all-time
high. They would not have given up their long-awaited peace so easily,and
soon,an announcement was made:
Whoever brings about the demise of this dreadful Gear shall be rewarded
with the lofty sum of 500,000 World Dollars!

Here are the special features unique to the GGX battle system:
[Tension Gauge]
The bar at the bottom of the screen.Increases with any offensive action
(i.e. attack,dash,walk towards opponent).Decreases with cowardly
actions(i.e.standing idle,backstepping a lot,repeating same move too often).
You need at least half a Tension Gauge to perform all special
techniques(Overdrives,Dead-Angles,Roman Cancels,etc.).When usable,it should
flash red.
____________________________________________________________________
[Gatling Combo System]
Allows you to easily chain together normal attacks to form devastating
combos.Try mixing in crouching attacks,dashing attacks,and special moves,
sometimes even Overdrives if you are skilled enough.
_____________________________________________________________________
[Overdrive Attacks]
Each character has at least one of these devastating moves.The effects vary,
but generally these are very large and damaging,complete with cool background
effects.^_^Your Tension Gauge must be at least half full to perform one,with
the exception of Dizzys' Ultimate Doom,which requires all of it. ^_^
______________________________________________________________________
[Dust Attacks]
A special attack that sends your opponent skyward!Very useful and also
amusing.As soon as it connects,immediately press Up on the D-Pad and wail
away on them with your best air combo.Beware of lag though...these take
almost a full second before they connect.
_______________________________________________________________________
[Dead-Angle Attacks]
While guarding an attack,immediately press F + any 2 attack buttons to
unleash a quick counterattack.This will cost 50% of your Tension Gauge also.
_______________________________________________________________________
[Faultless Defense]
This one is pretty cool and unique.At the cost of whatever energy you have
in the Tension Gauge,you can create an impenetrable barrier!While guarding,
just press and hold PUNCH & KICK and watch your opponents annoyance level
skyrocket.hehe.It will only last as long as your Tension Gauge though.
_______________________________________________________________________
[Instant Kills]
Ah,yes...This is the one thing that sets GGX appart from the others most.
Each character has an Instant Kill,which,as self-explanatory as it is,
massacres your opponent,in one swift motion,no matter what.^_^Well except
for the fact that most of them can be blocked fairly easily so thats a trade
off.During battle,press all 4 attack buttons at once to change the Tension
Gauge to the Instant Kill-O-Meter.hehe.Then while in this state,execute
your characters Instant Kill.Almost all characters have the same button
combo.Beware,this may result in unexpected tantrums or broken controllers.^_^
_______________________________________________________________________
[Roman Cancels]
The other feature that sets GGX apart from the pack.One of my personal
favorites.hehe.This super-cool feature allows you to terminate an attack,
even in mid-air,mid move,whenever,freeing you up to apply another move
immediately after.This is essential for creating some of the games most
wicked combos.It also eliminates the recovery delay after a move.It will
cost 50% of your Tension Gauge as well.

Here I will introduce to you the delightfully derranged cast of GGX.
This is one of the games strong points,as they are all very well designed
and completely unique from one another.There is guaranteed to be at least
1 that suites your taste.Did I mention they're derranged? hehe.

Height: 6'0"
Weight: 163 lbs.
Blood type: Unknown
Eye color: Ochre
Birthday: Unknown
Birthplace: America
Hobbies: Listening to Queen
Likes: The Queen album, "Sheer Heart Attack"
Dislikes: Great effort, "Doing your best."
Personal Info:
Sullen and unrefined; only speaks to others when absolutely necessary.This
is reflected in everything he does, and his fighting moves, while rough
and unpolished,are executed with absolute precision.Not a friendly man,
but not an inherently evil one.
<<<Background>>>
Once a subject of biological weapon research, Sol has spent the last 150
years living as a bounty hunter in order to conceal his past. His combat
skills easily surpass those of his human counterparts, and he is immune to
the affects of age.To avert further tragedy, he continues on his quest to
find and eliminate all Gears and the scientist who created them. After
the death of Justice, all the Gears around the world should have ceased
their activities; upon receiving word of a still-functioning Gear,Sol sets
out for the Tournament to investigate.

Height: 5'10
Weight: 128 lbs.
Blood type: AB
Eye color: Blue-Green
Birthday: November 20
Birthplace: France
Hobbies: Collecting teacups
Likes: Everyone's smiling faces
Dislikes: Sol
Personal Info:
Deadly serious, honest in work, truthful with others and devout in his
morals. A firm believer in justice, eternally trying to help those weaker
than himself. At the same time, he possesses a fragile mind that quickly
erupts when he encounters anyone who breaks his rules or disrupts his order.
In other words, he has a hard time dealing with freedom, a fact he has yet
to realize.
<<<Background>>>
A charismatic and talented swordsman, Ky was appointed as the leader of
the Sacred Order of Holy Knights when he was only 16. Since the Crusades,
he has worked in the police force to keep his vigil over mankind. Justice's
final words at the Tournament made Ky realize that the "justice" he believed
in only served human purposes. Ky, who believed all his life that Gears were
inherently evil, could neither agree nor disagree with Justice's message.
It was then that he received word of a Gear that had no intention of harming
humans. To determine the true meaning of justice, he decided to embark on
a new journey.

Birthplace: The floating continent, Zepp
Hobbies: Drawing pictures

merely for the pleasure of hurting others.
<<<Background>>>

maintains a society based on science and technology. Having taken the
rest of the slave soldiers hostage, he was sentenced by his superior to
enter the Tournament. During the Tournament,he learned that a coup d'etat
was in progress. In the end, the coup d'etat succeeded and Zepp was freed
from its dictatorship. President Gabriel, Potemkin's former instructor,
summoned him for a secret mission; to protect a Gear from the bounty

••••••••••Chipp Zanuff••••••••••
Height: 6'0
Weight: 148 lbs.
Blood type: B
Eye color: Red
Birthday: February 9
Birthplace: Insists on Japan (actually, it's America)
Hobbies: Dreaming
Likes: Sleeping pills
Dislikes: Nightmares, the Mafia, gangs, the Yakuza
Personal Info:
Short in patience and long in fighting spirit. Takes a survival-of-the-
fittest approach to life, and looks for the easy way out of everything
except fighting, where his strategies are always exceptionally well thought
out. Often flies into rages over trifling matters, although he's been
working hard to hold his temper in check under his former master's
admonitions. Wishes he could get himself to help others more often.
Has a keen interest in Japanese culture from his former master, and
possesses an image of that country that has little to do with reality.
<<<Background>>>
In his youth, Chipp was addicted to drugs and worked for the Mafia as a
drug trafficker.Eventually, his drug dependency worsened to the point where
he could no longer perform his job. No longer needed by the Mafia,Chipp
was to be disposed of when a ninja, who later became his teacher,rescued him.
Chipp began to open up to the man who saved his life, and became his
apprentice. But that peace was short-lived, as eventually, the Mafia killed
the ninja. Trembling in anger, Chipp vowed to take revenge on the Mafia.
Unable to reach the final rounds in the previous Tournament, he learned
that his heart, skills and strength were still lacking, and devoted himself
even more to his training. Upon witnessing Justice's death, Chipp realized
that deep down, even this monster that massacred countless people was
searching for help. This made him think about what a true helping hand was.
Now, he is once again ready to do battle for that which might truly save him,
and so,he focuses his interest on the story of the Gear.

••••••••••MILLIA RAGE••••••••••
Height: 5'7
Weight: 106 lbs.
Blood type: B
Eye color: Blue
Birthday: Unknown (Millia is an orphan)
Birthplace: Village of the assassins (Russia)
Hobbies: Playing with cats
Likes: Virtue
Dislikes: Zato, losing hair
Personal Info:
A cold, reticent woman, nothing ever appears to interest her. Indifferent
towards her feminine side, perhaps because of her assassin upbringing. Sees
everything in terms of black or white, and rarely makes a wrong decision.
Although her mind is like a machine, there is still a little human left in
her,and she is tormented inside by the recluse she has become.
<<<Background>>>
Losing both of her parents when she was still a child, Millia was trained
by a group of assassins to use her hair as weapon. However, her conscience
would not allow her to murder innocent people, and as a result, she left
the organization. Being constantly pursued by the assassins, she decided
that it was more efficient to put an end to the organization than to run
away from it. She entered the tournament to defeat Zato, the assassins'
leader. Her plan was technically a success and she did gain her freedom,
but her feelings-the guilt of causing her former master to be overtaken
by a shadow and the fear of having to confront him again-still troubled her.
Finally, out of her agony came a conclusion… "I must finish him off,
once and for all."

••••••••••ZATO-1ONE••••••••••
Height: 5'11
Weight: 150 lbs.
Blood type: A
Eye color: Originally blue
Birthday: January 28
Birthplace: Village of the Assassins (Spain)
Hobbies: Attempting to understand the language of the flowers
Likes: Pride
Dislikes: Women
Personal Info:
A true assassin, cool-headed and brutal. His speech is moderate and prudent,
but also scathing enough to show the listener who's boss. This is just an
act of self-preservation, however, and deep down he is just another timid
(or, to put it another way, vain) young man. There is still some goodwill
left lurking within his heart.
<<<Background>>>
Zato, the leader of an international organization of assassins, gained the
ability to manipulate shadows in exchange for his vision. Originally a
lowly assassin, he gained new power through a forbidden ritual, which
allowed him to rise to his present position. The repeated battles of the
last Tournament took their toll on him, however, and a shadow seized control
of his body. The shadow was cognizant that it was created as a weapon and
that its intentions of murder and destruction were only programmed instincts.
It had developed a will of its own-the ability to break away from its cursed
fate. This newborn soul could not understand humans, and was filled with
loneliness. While in search for others like it, the shadow came across
the rumor of the Gear.

••••••••••MAY••••••••••
Height: 5'2
Weight: 104 lbs.
Blood type: B
Eye color: Black
Birthday: May 5 (the day Johnny found her)
Birthplace: Unknown
Hobbies: Thinking about Johnny
Likes: Johnny
Dislikes: Baldness
Personal Info:
A mischievous and happy-go-lucky young girl. Her values are based completely
around her consuming love for Johnny. (If Johnny was on one side of a scale
and everyone else in the world were on the other, Johnny would still weigh
more in her eyes.) This pure and childlike exterior belies untold strength;
she can hoist up a ship's anchor by herself. Simple-minded and selfish,
nothing can stop her once she gets an idea into her head.
<<<Background>>>
Having lost her parents at a young age, May was picked up by the pirate
Johnny and raised as a chivalrous bandit. Though she lived a rough life,
over time she came to be charmed by her new guardian's kindness and
broadmindedness. Ever since, her life has become completely dedicated to
Johnny, and her reunion with him after the last Tournament brought her much
happiness. One day, as Johnny's birthday was nearing, the crew decided to
give him a present as a sign of their appreciation. Compelled by her growing
feelings for him, May decided to give him a gift personally, in addition
to the crew's gift. The problem was, she didn't have money... Soon after,
she learned of the huge bounty put on the Gear, and decided to head for
the new Tournament.

••••••••••JAM KURADOBERI••••••••••
Height: 5'4
Weight: Unknown
Blood type: B
Eye color: Brown
Birthday: February 8
Birthplace: China
Hobbies: Cooking, observing, researching
Likes: The kitchen, adolescence, well-built guys
Dislikes: Indecisive men, ignorant fools
Personal Info:
Annoying, self-centered, conceited and every bit a sore loser. Treats
herself with kid gloves, but rains down hatred upon anyone weaker or more
indecisive than her. (Rock stars, though, are excepted from this.)
Although she may seem hung up on all the ideals she holds dear, she is
actually a stark realist, able to look at things from a more ironic
perspective. She uses this to hide her true self from others. Her
singular battle style is a result of harsh observation and a strong belief
that her way, and only her way, is the best.
<<<Background>>>
Huma and Hanagata were both top-ranking restaurants in China, but their
approaches were completely different. Huma's pride was in bringing joy
to its customers through cooking filled with love, while Hanagata
emphasized creating the most exquisite dishes using only the highest-
quality ingredients. Even though they opposed each other like oil and
water, they were both restaurants of high repute that every cook aspired
to work for. Neither of these philosophies made any sense to Jam. She
believed that their policies were nothing but hindrances to bringing
delicious dishes to everyone. To prove that she was right, she needed to
start her own restaurant. To obtain seed money, she seeks out the reward
for eliminating the dangerous Gear.

Weight: 99 lbs.
Blood type: B
Eye color: Peach
Birthday: March 5
Birthplace: Pre-destruction Japan
Hobbies: Drinking
Likes: Tokkuri (Sake bottles)
Dislikes: Tanuki statues
Personal Info:
A spirited woman and a devoted martial artist. Her femininity has been
suppressed in the wake of her supreme goal. Gets in fights over tiny
matters; shoots first and asks questions later. Holds her beliefs firmly,
and will argue with anyone who disagrees with her to the bitter end. At
the same time, though, she is capable of changing her mind if she's
obviously wrong.
<<<Background>>>
When the Japanese institution she lived in was raided, Baiken witnessed the
horrible deaths of her parents and friends. This massacre was the work of
the Gears, but what had been burned into her memory was the image of a man
standing in flames, surrounded by his creations. Standing amidst the Gears,
he silently gazed upon young Baiken. She became acutely aware, even in the
absence of evidence, that he was an enemy. Her memory of this event has not
faded; she can vividly recall the carnage every time she closes her eyes.
She continues on her quest to find "The Man," to exact her revenge... her
people's revenge on him.

<<<Background>>>
Faust was once a good man and a great surgeon-one of the best in the world.
After committing a simple mistake that cost a young female patient her life,
his mind broke and he went on a murderous rampage. He was captured and sent
to a dimensional prison after taking the lives of scores of innocent people
using the most indescribable of means. The previous Tournament gave him a
second lease on life, and now he has returned to his former self. Wishing to
punish himself for his past, Faust resolved to take his own life. Not only
would this act finally atone for his sins, but he realized it was the only
way he would be able to escape the painful feelings that haunted him day
and night. But just as he was about to end it all, Faust learned that the
young girl's death so long ago was no accident, but rather a cold-blooded
murder carried out by a third party. Finally seeing the light, he now sets
out on a new journey to discover the truth behind the girl, saving as many
lives as he can along the way.

••••••••••JOHNNY••••••••••
Height: 6'
Weight: 159 lbs.
Blood type: O
Eye color: Blue
Birthday: October 24
Birthplace: America
Hobbies: Chasing beautiful women
Likes: His cherished guitar collection
Dislikes: Guys who don't "get" jokes
Personal Info:
Light-hearted in spirit and florid in tongue. Endlessly chasing after women.
His apparent aloofness to the world is just a part of his foppish demeanor,
and he is far more shrewd than he appears. Both knowledgeable and experienced,
he can get past any tight situation without so much as breaking a sweat.
<<<Background>>>
When Johnny was thirteen, his father-the only person who cared for him-was
killed by a Gear. Johnny's reluctance to open his heart to others became
stronger after this incident; his fear of losing love again forced him to
withdraw into himself. One day, he discovered that there were many other
orphans just like him, and came to realize that they might not be strong
enough to continue on living. From then on, Johnny chose to follow his
father's path and live as a man of compassion. It doesn't matter to him
if they are humans, animals, or even Gears; it is his duty to help those
in need. Johnny decides to visit the Gear in person, to see if he can offer
support. He hides his intentions from his crew, telling them that he is
going after the bounty.

••••••••••ANJI MITO••••••••••
Height: 6'
Weight: 150 lbs.
Blood type: B
Eye color: Black
Birthday: January 1
Birthplace: Pre-destruction Japan
Hobbies: Vigorous sports, traveling
Likes: Faith, freedom
Dislikes: Obstinance, deception
Personal Info:
Just as his fighting style is smooth and dancelike, his actions are dictated
more by feeling than by logic. His character is a combination of movement
and silence. A straightforward man, he worries little of future consequences
before acting-not because of optimism, but simply because he rarely thinks
things through enough. Has little sense of justice, but isn't hung up about
fighting against what rubs him. Enjoys playfully needling people as a way
to seem friendly.
<<<Background>>>
Anji is one of the few that have inherited the precious Japanese blood.
Because there are only a handful of Japanese in this time period, they are
under government protection. Thus, they are viewed as international
treasures, and do not receive the same treatment as regular citizens.
Within the Japanese community, there are those that accept this treatment,
and those that reject it. Anji is part of the latter; rather than being
concerned about the preservation of his race, he wants to regain his freedom
as a human being. Because of this, he disguises his nationality and travels
the world in pursuit of "The Man"-the creator of the Gears and the one
responsible for the destruction of the Japanese people. However, he
pursues him not out of hatred or revenge...

••••••••••VENOM••••••••••
Height: 5'10
Weight: 146 lbs.
Blood type: A
Eye color: Blue
Birthday: Unknown (Venom is an orphan)
Birthplace: Village of the assassins (England)
Hobbies: Reading, Chess
Likes: Zato, sympathy
Dislikes: Blood, those who oppose Zato
Personal Info:
Although he works as an assassin, his mind is pure and he has trouble hiding
things from others. His actions are calm and scientific, but his thoughts
are more on the romantic side. Raised in a cold environment, he has few
desires in life other than to preserve his own while he searches for some
meaning to his existence. His hatred of murder comes from the heart, and
taking human lives outside of work is tough for him to bear.
<<<Background>>>
Orphaned at a young age, Venom was taken under the wing of a group of
assassins. However, his sensibilities hindered his growth as an assassin.
As time passed, he pondered the meaning of his existence. Before long,
the organization saw him as worthless and ordered him to be executed.
However, just prior to his execution, Zato, the new leader of the
organization, recognized Venom's talent and spared his life. Venom pledged
his loyalty to Zato out of deep gratitude for saving his life and giving
him his raison d'etre. Zato soon fell out of favor, though, and rumors of
his disloyalty abounded. Venom, who had served as Zato's right-hand man
for many years, knew that this slander was not true, but the evidence
against him was very strong. As doubts continue to rise, Venom receives
some information regarding someone thought to be Zato, and departs to
investigate.

Height: 5'10
Weight: 172 lbs.
Blood type: B
Eye color: Blue
Birthday: December 25
Birthplace: England
Hobbies: Billiards
Likes: His girlfriend from his own time (Megumi)
Dislikes: Preachy types
Personal Info:
The eternal optimist. Rarely thinks deeply about matters, believing that
]everything works out eventually. His lust for amour knows no bounds. He
does have the ability to calmly examine and solve problems, but that's
just not his style. A kind man by nature, he can never find it in his
heart to kill anyone-not even the most evil of villains.
<<<Background>>>
Axl actually hails from the 20th century. Born in the slums, he placed
himself in the middle of gang warfare to bring peace to the area, and
with his extraordinary physical prowess he was able to achieve his goal-
without any casualties-in six months time. Some time later, due to a
cruel twist of fate, he was forced to travel 150 years into the future.
Hoping to gain passage back to his own time, he entered the Tournament.
Instead, he was sent to another time period for a year's time. During
that period, he was bounced around in the time-space continuum for an
equivalent of three years. Throughout his journey, he learned that in
each time period, there were always rumors of another time traveler like
him. Axl believed that by pursuing the traveller known as "The Man," he
could come upon a way to go back to his own time once and for all. Sensing
the presence of "The Man" behind the incident with the Gear, he decides to
check it out for himself.

Height: 6'1
Weight: 161 lbs.
Blood type: Analysis Failed
Eye color: Red
Birthday: May 9
Birthplace: Switzerland
Hobbies: Thinking
Likes: Kliff Underson, potatoes
Dislikes: Sol, Saitou-style martial arts
Personal Info:
A gentle-hearted and charitable man, willing to sacrifice everything to
help others. He especially likes children, and has taken in several orphans
in the past. To him, a criminal should not be punished for his crime,
but forced to reassess his evil ways instead. His curiosity knows no
bounds, but his hatred of violence borders on phobia.
<<<Background>>>
Testament was involved in a conspiracy and converted to a Gear irrespective
of his intention. Bearing strong willpower, he managed to maintain his
consciousness and memory but was forced to conform with the command of
"mankind erasure" which was implanted compulsorily, and as such, he
turned his fang to mankind. With the death of Justice in the previous
Tournament, Testament recovered his original character but was tortured by
the depth of his sins and felt despaired to live on his life as a human
being. He wandered around in despair, until one day he got lost in the
woods and stumbled upon a place the people called "the devil's living place."
It was there that Testament met Dizzy. After hearing the narrative of her
life, her existence became his reason to live. The only thing he could do
is protect her from enemies. Not for the destruction of his opponents but
rather "to protect his precious one," Testament holds his scythe once again...

••••••••••DIZZY••••••••••
Height: 5'6
Weight: 123 lbs.
Blood type: Analysis Failed
Eye color: Reddish Brown
Birthday: December 25 (unconfirmed)
Birthplace: Unknown
Hobbies: Grooming her wings
Likes: Foster parents, forest animals
Dislikes: Poachers
Personal Info:
Born from a Gear and a human. Her growth has been dramatic, and despite
her appearance, she's only just turned three years old. Her thirst for
knowledge is ravenous, however, and her mental age is already above 20.
Separated from others, her distrust of humans is the only blemish upon her
soul. Enjoys interacting with nature and other people, but hates warfare
with a passion. Far from a pacifist, though, she sees the existence of
humans and their destruction of the environment as just a part of a natural
cycle-one that's dealt her a cruel fate to fight against.
<<<Background>>>
It is said that when Dizzy was abandoned in the village as an orphan,
she was just a human child. An old couple with no one to depend on took
care of her. After half a year, the people of the village became scared
of her because of the speed at which her body and mind developed. One day,
Dizzy found that she had wings and a tail. It was then that the villagers
decided to expel her as a Gear. But her foster parents did not agree, so
they hid her in the woods, away from the people of the village. She was
placed in an area called "the devil's living place," a place that no one
dared to approach. Living alone there in a cave, her shelter was eventually
discovered by humans and she was put away in confinement. The humans tried
to hurt her several times but she always drove them away without seriously
wounding anyone. To escape the cruel abuse, Dizzy finally decided to leave
her dear old home...

Ah,yes. Guilty Gear Mode.This is probably the place in the game where
you will have most of your fun.Also,it seems no one has covered this subject
in-depth in any of their FAQs yet,so I thought I'd contribute.In this mode,
the battles are noticeably faster paced and much more feirce.First off,here

--Air Dashing can be done extremely close to the ground

Alright,now that we've got that down,here is a list of new and enhanced

So there you have it.Guilty Gear Mode in all its awesome glory.
This mode is very fun.Check below on how to unlock it.I personally think
there should have been more enhancements to each character,but I suppose
that's made up for with the Shadow characters.I'll explain that later.^_^

UNLOCK TESTAMENT & DIZZY
The easy way:
---At the title screen,press D,F,F,U,START.You should hear Dizzy's voice
as a confirmation.
The real way:
---Enter Survival Mode.When you reach Survival Level 20,you will face
Daredevil Testament.Defeat him to unlock him.At Survival Level 30,you
will face Daredevil Dizzy.Defeat her to unlock her.
SPECIAL BATTLE INTRODUCTIONS
---At the beginning of a battle,there is a small quarrel between
certain characters.Some of them are actually pretty cool,too.
Millia vs. Zato-1One
Venom vs. Zato-1One
Johnny vs. May
Sol Badguy vs. Axl Low
Sol Badguy vs. Ky Kiske
Sol Badguy vs. Dizzy
THE COSTUMES
---Each character in Guilty Gear X has about 10 different costumes.
Some of them are downright awesome.Some of them are not.Also,most of
the good ones are unlocked in Survival Mode.I personally think the
Guilty Gear costumes are the best.They are noticable by their unusually
bright coloring and sharper lines with a slightly 3-D look.Also,the
Shadow costumes are great,as they are the best as far as enhancements
go.Here are all the button combinations that reveal new costumes.
1•SQUARE
2•TRIANGLE
3•CIRCLE
4•X
5•START(Gold Costume once unlocked)
6•SQUARE + TRIANGLE
7•SQUARE + X
8•X + CIRCLE
9•TRIANGLE + CIRCLE
10•hold START(Shadow Costume once unlocked)
---Here are the effects of the costumes.
GOLD COSTUME
•Speed is increased
•Damage is increased
•Defense is increased
SHADOW COSTUME
•Speed is doubled
•Damage is doubled
•Defense is doubled
•INFINITE TENSION GAUGE!!!
UNLOCKING COSTUMES
---Gold costumes are unlocked by completing Survival Mode.The Shadow
costumes are obtained by completing Survival Mode in under 10 minutes.
All other hidden colors are unlocked by defeating an opponent wearing
that particular costume during Survival Mode.Once that battle is over,
regardless of whether or not you win,that costume becomes selectable.
UNLOCK GUILTY GEAR MODE
1st Way---Set the Time Limit to 60 seconds.With Testament and Dizzy
already unlocked,clear Arcade Mode without losing a single round or using
a continue.Then Guilty Gear Mode will be in the Options Menu under "Game
Options".It can be set to affect only 1P or 2P,or both.
2nd Way---Clear Survival Mode.
ENDLESS SURVIVAL MODE
---Once you defeat Daredevil Zato-1One at the end of Survival Mode,press
and hold all 4 shoulder buttons.You will continue fighting in "Endless
Survival Mode".It is extremely difficult,as you will face some new,harder
opponents.This includes Shadow characters.This also includes the very EVIL
Daredevil Johnny and Daredevil Sol.Daredevil Johnny's Mist Finer can kill
you in ONE hit.Daredevil Sol is ALWAYS in Dragon Install.Have fun.^_^

This section is all about my favorite characters,and also some help in
picking your favorites or picking characters that are best suited for
a particular portion of the game.Believe me,with a game like this,chances
are everyones top 5 will be different.I hope this may help some of you
out with that though.
MY TOP 5 CHARACTERS
[01]. BAIKEN
---I just simply love Baiken.OK,so she's a very complicated character,but
once you get used to her unique fighting style and master her,you WILL be
killing people hard.Her moves are fantastic,she has just the right amount
of range,and her counterattacks can really get you out of a serious jam
when used correctly.Her overdrives are something else,I tell you.One is
simple yet VERY efective>It involves dashing forward while executing 3
very powerful slashes.The other is her ultimate counter.This awesome move
has 4 different forms,one for each attack button.One of them disables your
opponents ability to use special moves,and another even disables their
ability to jump!This Overdrive can and will turn the tables in your favor
VERY quickly.It's all in how you use her,basically.Plus,what could possibly
be better or more intimidating then a one-armed one-eyed samurai??
[02]. CHIPP ZANUFF
---Ok,first thing's first.CHIPP IS FAST.Like,unbelievably fast,especially
once you master him.With his array of moves,and the right hands,you can
take out your opponents before they even know what happened.^_^His moves
are all useful in their own way,his Overdrives are very potent,and his
speed and manueverability is simply unmatched.His ONLY weakness in my opinion
is his extremely low defense.This is no major gripe,as his speed and ability
to easily confuse his opponents more than make up for that.
[03]. JAM KURADOBERI
---Jam is totally cool.While not as useful and potent as the others I use,she
is very fun to play with,and has some very nice moves.Plus she can be funny
at times.The main thing most people overlook is that her 3 main special moves
can be "supercharged",put simply.This is done with Breath of Asanagi.Those 3
moves,when charged up,can easily end a match in the right hands.Her moves are
are very specific in a sense,but this is a good thing.No matter what,she ALWAYS
has a move that can completely avoid or even counteract any move dished out to
her.Her overdrives aren't bad either.The Psycho Burst is more useful as a
counter attack then anything else,but a good one at that.Rise of the Phoenix
is a very flashy supercombo ending in an upwards attack with a phoenix exploding
over the whole scene.All in all a great character,although her range is a bit
short,but not enough to call her a short-ranged fighter,as she has a few long
range attacks.
[04]. DIZZY
---Dizzy is just plain cool.As far as actual fighting goes,I still prefer the
others,but Dizzy has one of my favorite character designs in the game.She is
also a complete powerhouse.If you are not extremely careful,she will annihilate
you in seconds.She has a varied stabled of moves,all with good range.Her Overdrives
are very very powerful,and quite awesome as well.They have to be,to make up for the
fact that she doesn't have an Instant Kill like the rest.One is very very long range,
one is very short range,and her last one is a real kicker.If you can get it off(it
requires a full Tension Gauge!!),then say buh-bye to that opponent of yours.Ultimate
Doom,when it connects,hits an astounding 29 times,and will take off about 3/4 of
their life bar!Overall,Dizzy is the reigning queen of coolness,and can kill in
seconds when used correctly.
[05]. MILLIA RAGE
---I present to you my anger character,a.k.a. the character I use when I get rocked
evn with my best characters.It is pure coincidence that my anger character's last
name happens to be Rage,but it adds a nice touch.^_^When mastered,she can downright
piss you off beyond belief.Bad Moon is just plain cheap.It frustrates people like
you wouldn't believe.Used in conjunction with Maximum Velocity and Iron Saber,it
is bound to not only anger your opponent,but give them a slow painful death as well.
They don't do a terribly large amount of damage,which is the trade off for them
being nearly unavoidable and unpredictable.Millia is also the second fastest
character in the game,after Chipp of course.Her speed combined with Bad Moon
makes her a deadly adversary.Besides,she fights with her hair.That's just cool.
---If you want to clear Arcade Mode very quickly,use Potemkin and his Instant Kill.
If you use it correctly,you wil fly through arcade mode like it was nothing.
---For Survival Mode,I highly recommend Dizzy.She is the only one i could beat it
with.Not even with Baiken could I clear the EVIL Survival Mode.This is mainly
because her moves make the AI retarded.Try this combo to start with:
QCB + HEAVY SLASH,dash in,KICK,SLASH,SLASH,QCF + HEAVY SLASH,dash in,F + HEAVY
SLASH---This combo is very very effective in Survival Mode,although it won't
get you through all of it.Also,start performing the QCF + HEAVY SLASH command
during the 2nd SLASH,so it comes out immediately afterwards without delay.
On top of that,make sure that 2nd SLASH lasts long enough to push Dizzy back
far enough,otherwise the QCF + HEAVY SLASH will not hit them,as it has a set
range.You need to be about sweep distance.Keep this up,and add your own flavor,
and you should be fine.Good luck!
