Final Fantasy IX Eiko's Abilities Information and Translations-Version 1.0 By: Red Scarlet (akaiscarlet@hotmail.com) Version 1.0 11/05/00-Created FAQ for Eiko. I keep getting a ton of emails about it, and how to view the Japanese text is in the paragraph right below the disclaimer. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This FAQ is for personal use only. It cannot be altered without the consent of the FAQ's owner (me), nor published in any magazines or any reproduced form. This FAQ is not meant for sale and is copyright 2000 Red Scarlet. If you want to use this FAQ on your Website or page, please email me for permission (akaiscarlet@hotmail.com). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This FAQ was created using NJSTAR, and to view it properly, I would suggest right clicking the page, then choose 'encoding' and choose Japanese Auto-Select. That is to view it on a PC with Windows, and since I don't have a Mac, I have no idea how to do that with them. So, sorry. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Although there are a couple of Menued versions of the ability lists and the like, I have yet to see anything actually explaining what all of them do. Usually, there is just a name for them, and I guess you simply have to know what they do by only the name. Well, some people do not know, so I am going to try to throw out a helping hand again. Hopefully this'll help y'all out somewhat. Note that most of my lists are not at 100%; I apologize, as I am only going through the game for my 2nd time at the time of writing this. Thank you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the Abilities, they will be listed as they look on the ability screen first, so their placement on the actual screen of the TV/monitor will look similar. Then the same list with their English translations follows. After that list, each ability will be translated (to the best of my ability), then the info about it will be displayed. Lastly, the actual equipment that must be equipped to learn the Ability will be in there too, but note that I have nowhere near every item, so these lists go by what I have encountered on my own way through the game. Here we go. I am sorry for the huge delay in posting this, and the US version comes out in a few weeks, but hey, its better late than never, right? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- アビリテイのエーコ-Abiriti no Eeko (Eiko's Abilities) つかう-Tsukau (Usable-Battle Commands; signified by a Red Diamond.) カーバンクル 24 フェンリル 30 フェニックス 32 マディーン 54 ケアル 6 ケアルラ 10 ケアルガ 22 リジェネ 14 レイズ 8 アレイズ 24 ポイゾナ 4 ストナ 8 エスナ 20 シェル 6 プロテス 6 ヘイスト 8 サイレス 8 ミニマム 8 リフレク 6 レビテト 6 デスペル 16 フェイス 14 ジュエル 4 ホーリー 36 Carbunkle 24 Fenrir 30 Phoenix 32 Madain 54 Cure 6 Cura 10 Curaga 22 Regen 14 Raise 8 Araise 24 Poisona 4 Stona 8 Esuna 20 Shell 6 Protect 6 Haste 8 Silence 8 Minimum 8 Reflect 6 Levitate 6 Dispel 16 Faith 14 Jewel 4 Holy 36 カーバンクル-Kaabankuru (Carbunkle) MP cost: 24.
