    Achieve a 99 chain attack

    How to unlock Full Chain

    This trophy will unlock once you have achieved a chain of 99 during battle. This task may sound daunting, but it is possible against Chac, an enemy that appears as a boss on the 80th floor of Via Infinito, and as a regular enemy on floors 81 to 99. Chac is an excellent enemy to perform a chain of 99 against for two reasons: she has over 430,000 HP, allowing you to safely perform over 99 attacks without killing her and ending the battle, and she has a rather long stagger animation. This is important because as long as you are able to attack her before you stagger animation ends, your chain will still increase. This gives you a breathing room of around one or two seconds between attacks if you are not able to attack her right away. There are two methods that can be used to achieve of chain of 99:

    1. The first method involves having a party of three Thieves. Because Thieves attack twice in one turn, their regular attacks are very useful in achieving a chain of 99. Equip Yuna and Paine with the Speed Bracer for Auto-Haste to speed up their attack animations. Simply continue attacking Chac with the girls one at a time until you achieve a chain of 99, and Chac will never even get one attack in due to constantly being staggered. Be warned, however, that this method will not work if your girls are at a high level. Above level 90, you will kill Chac before reaching a chain of 99.

    2. The second method involves having a party of three Gunners, each with Trigger Happy Lv. 2 and Trigger Happy Lv. 3 learned. Speed Bracers are not necessary for this method, but are recommended. When the battle against Chac begins, wait until your three girls' ATB gauges are all filled up, then unleash the first Trigger Happy. You do not need to begin your next Trigger Happy right away due to Chac's long stagger animation, so you can give yourself about half a second or so to let your previous character's ATB gauge begin to fill. Keep repeating this process until you reach a chain of 99.

    Inflicting critical hits prolongs the stagger animation slightly, allowing you more time for your next attack to be a chain attack. To increase a character's luck, equip the Rabite's Foot accessory (rare drop from Jumbo Cactuar or common drop from Oversoul Jumbo Cactuar) to increase her luck by 100 points, or equip the Ray of Hope Garment Grid (obtained by getting an Episode Complete in Macalania Woods) to increase her luck by 30 points.

  • prolly best way is to have lv3 trigger happy ability learnt with all 3 girls then during a fight, with cursor set to memory, constantly use Trigger Happy, staggering usage so as 1 is nearing end u start another girl using so the chain doesn't break
  • I completely agree, but I found it difficult to get started because Chac is so fast. Using the Ray of Hope Garment Grid and the Rabites Foot to boost your luck means that all you need is for her to attack first, which you will almost certainly dodge, then you can lay into her. It took me about 8 tries to get it to work but once I'd used this set I managed it first try, and even managed to hold her in one attack chain for the entire fight, so barring that first move, she never got a go in.
  • she keeps cutting up my attacks. Despite her being staggered she always seems to force me to wait while i'm triggering (no matter if my mode is set to wait or active) so that she can cast stony gaze. what .. the .. hell.
  • did it 1st time with 3 gunners lvl 3 trigger happy and speed bracers equipped on 2 characters
  • Comment #2 by theslink2000 This saved my day, i knew there was something wrong because it didnt work but got it on first try after letting Chac attack me once.
  • RE: Comment #3 by spratters53 I realize that you posted this two years ago, but figured I would reply anyway in case someone else has the same issue and finds themselves here. Whether you are set to Active or Wait, if your enemy has started to perform an action (in this situation it is most likely Chac's Stony Glare), your ATB will stop charging. So, to get this trophy, you have to wait to start your Trigger Happy barrage until just after Chac has attacked you. This will guarantee that you will stagger her before she has time to initiate another action.
