How to unlock the Big Game Hunter achievement in FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 - Definitive Guide
- Invincible - Spawns in the southeast section of the map when weather is cloudy.
-Long Gui - Spawns in the east section of the map when weather is sunny.
-Ochu - Spawns in the west section of the map when weather is rainy.
- Yomi - Spawns in the southeast section of the map when weather is thundery.
Most of this are not that hard, the hardest out of the four is Yomi. I found the best tactic on Yomi was this
Rav-Rav-Com
Com-Com-Com
Sab-Sab-MED
Sen-Sen-Med
Med-Med-Med
Now the tactic to this is to poison Yomi with Sab. Then try to chain break him, and get a few attacks in. Once his shields go up heal then repeat. It dosnt get to hard until he starts using his special attack. At this point it is strongly advised to go into Sen-Sen-Med, and wait for him to go back into his shield state. With a little practice you will be able to kill him.
heres a video on the fragments you need to get the begining 8 fragments before you can fight the monsters.
Edit: if ur going to vote negative please state why so i could fix it for everyone else.
If there is anything to fix, it's that. And I'd get right on that if I were you.
You only need 3 paradigms
SEN/SEN/SEN
SAB/SAB/SEN
SYN/SYN/MED
You use the SAB and the SYN one based on what state he is is.
If he has his shield up, then the SYN one gets used, to buff up and heal.
Once the shields down hit the SAB paradigm, and with the character you control spam poison, and once that hits spam wound.
Repeat until dead. (Him dead, not you)
Use the sentinel one for when he uses his big attacks.
There are four special boss-like enemies in the steppes, one for each weather type.
- Long Gui - Have the weather sunny and you can't miss it.
- Ochu - Have the weather on Rainy and talk to the Hunter that you got the story line quests from and he will give you a quest that makes him appear.
- Invincible - Have the weather on Cloudy and talk to the lady that you did the wool quest from, and she gives you the quest.
- Yomi - Have the weather on the last setting, which is with the purple sky and the lightning. Talk to the Hunter you got the storyline quests from again, and he gives you this final quest. Yomi is a weaker version of the hardest boss in Final Fantasy XIII. You need the chocobos unlocked to get to him, and I am not sure if you can even get the quest without having them unlocked anyways. To unlock the chocobos you need to get all 5 red statues, 3 green statues, and the yellow one. After getting those activated, the lady next to the chocobo pen has a dialogue.
You unlock this achievement after defeating Yomi in a fight.
The paradigms used:
SEN/SEN/SEN
SAB/SAB/SEN
SYN/SYN/MED
RAV/RAV/SYN
MED/MED/MED
You want to start the fight off in the SAB/SAB/SEN paradigm.
Allow the character your not controlling to spam Wound. While you apply Deprotect, Poison (until it lands) and then Imperil. Then change to RAV/RAV/SYN, you will most likely only get to use this paradigm for a turn or two before Yomi's shield comes back up.
Then switch to SYN/SYN/SEN to get your party's buff back up, then repeat the above process, until he switches to his special attacks, then switch to SEN/SEN/SEN. After a special attack he would generally put his shield up. Use MED/MED/MED if needed, then switch to SYN/SYN/MED to buff up before repeating the process.
In total this method can be a lengthy one, but one that finally allowed me to beat him, after many tries.
This achievement requires the defeat of four bosses in the Archylte Steppe area. You'll need to kill them all for their fragments to earn "Defragmented" as well. Once you can ride chocobos in this map (find all five statues on the map below and then speak with the keeper), you'll also be able to battle these opponents. To spawn them, use the weather machine at the hunter camp to create the right weather condition.
I suggest waiting until you've beat the game and either finished or are close to the "Supreme Being" achievement. Getting the Odinblade is a good idea as well. See "Giant's Fist" for how to obtain that. My Noel had 1000+ Strength when I did all these and they were extremely easy.
Note: Long Gui does not have an associated "quest" for killing him. The other three do (two from that man next to the weather machine, one from the sheep girl). If the quests don't trigger, try changing the weather and exiting the time and then returning. That should force them to show up.
- Immortal - Found in SE when Windy (both up). Really nothing special to this guy, just a quick stagger than a Commando pounding.
- Long Gui - Found in E when Sunny (both down). You'll need to Stagger and "kill" each of his legs for him to fall down, then Stagger his body to 999% and go full Commando. Throwing a Deprotect on won't hurt either. See "Giant's Fist" to get that achievement during this fight as well. Might take two rounds of stagger to kill him, just make sure to heal after any stomps.
- Ochu - Found in W when Rainy (left up, right down). This fight is much easier than the first game. Again, with 1000+ Strength for Noel and Magic for Serah, I just used Rav/Com/Com with a few switches to heal. Take down the adds or their damage can take a toll quickly though.
- Yomi - Found in SE when Stormy (left down, right up). Poison/Wound is going to be your biggest source of damage to this monster. Have three paradigms ready for this, one Sab/Sab/Med to cast the debuffs, one Med/Med/Med for quick full heals and one Sen/Sen/Sen that you will switch to any time he uses the "Wicked Whirl" attack. If you have some extra time, go full Commado for extra damage but I didn't bother.
