I'm 65 hours in FFXIII now. Just cleared the Titan's trials last night and 5 starred everything first try except for challenge 51. Only got 4 stars on him so I'll have to go back at least one more time.

Got 50 (5 stars) and I still have a ways to go on upgrading everything and maxing out all my stats. Made the mistake of letting 2 characters that I'm not using hit 999,999 CP so I was losing extra experience gained over that. DOH! Hopefully it wasn't like that for too long, I wasn't paying attention.

Question to people who are further or have the plat. What's the best spot to farm for money and CP for someone around my level? I almost have all of the 3 primary roles maxed out. And can I synthesize of get a rare drop on the item needed for unlocking the max weapon for most of my characters. I only noticed I could buy it in one of the shops for 2 million gil. It's called the Trapezohedron I believe.

Thanks!

If you can kill the monster that drops it, the Adamantoise, keep killing it.

1) Dont buy traps, you need the 2 mil for other things

2) You'll also need money to finish treasure hunter. Adamantoises also drop Platinum Ingots, which you want.

3) In the process of farming enough Platinum Ingots and Traps, you'll likely end up with enough CP to max your characters.

So you're killing 3 birds with 1 stone. In my experience, the Adamantoise at Eden Hall is the fastest. If you don't need to summon, to respawn the Adamantoise all you need to do is run to the top of the stairs that lead to the next section, or save and reload at the really close by savepoint. If you need to summon to kill him, you can fight the soldiers around, and 2-3 fights will give you 3 TP, then reload/enter the next area to respawn the soldiers as needed.
