Alright I bought FF3 a couple days ago. I've played it about 3 hours. However I still can't figure out how to save. I keep getting to the first cave and dying then restarting all over again. I'm beginning to get annoyed with the quicksave because as soon as you die your back at square one. So I want to know how you save and where to go to save. Do I have to defeat the Djinn first or what, please help I'm really getting annoyed!

you might have missed the save point, i dont remember, but yea saving is a bitch in that game

You save on the world map, like any older Final Fantasy don't you?

you do encounter save points within dungeons every blue moon or so, i remember in the final dungeon i lost 3 hours of gameplay because i ran into one of those colored dragons, crummy luck...haven't gone back to it ever since

you should go to ign or gamefaqs dude, this game is ridiculous without some sort of guide so you don't get blindsided and lose hours of gameplay

You're right. You can only save out in the world map.

It took me a while to figure that out, also, since it was my first-ever FF.

Alright I have another question. I'm at the small gnome town but I can't seem to use the mini spell. I looked online and somewhere read you have to be level 8 or higher. Well half my team is level ten and two are level nine. But I still can't turn mini!

You need to buy the spell.

I would make sure that at least 3 of the 4 are a magic-using class when you go mini. Your physical attack prowess is greatly depleted, and you have to do a whole dungeon that way.

yeah I hated that part because the crystal sickness really screws you over. You might want to have at least on black mage. They should be able to learn any spell that you come across until late game.

In FF3 spells are based on this level system. A black mage can learn up to level 8 but you only have three slots per level so choose wisely.

I wish you could battle other people in FF3, my guys are pretty godly. I grinded like crazy in that game.
