How to Capture Rare Monsters in Final Fantasy XIII-2

February 4, 2012 by Ian Miles Cheong

The video guide shows you how to capture all the rare monsters in Final Fantasy XIII-2.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 is finally out and unlike its predecessor, it's a much more open ended game. Offering large, open spaces instead of cramped hallways, the sequel is everything the original game should've been. 

Every large open space in the game is populated with monsters, some of which are rare, all of which the player must do battle with. These monsters—both rare and normal varieties—can be captured by the player. They can then be summoned in future battles as allies. To first capture them however, you'll need to pick up the Monster Collector fragment skill. 

Step 1 :
First Save Your Data Manually, Press Start Button then Save.

Step 2 :
Now to Capture Monster Easily You Must Use "Sychro Drive" of your Ally Monster as a Final Strike (Attack) to Defeat and Capture the Crystal of That Monster.

Step 3 :
If You failed to Capture the Crystal, Load Your Data and Try Again. Till You Get the Rare Monsters.

This video has a few indespensible tips on how to capture those rare and elusive monsters. Just be sure to save before making the attempt. 

Final Fantasy XIII-2 is available on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Much like its predecessor, there are no plans to bring it to the PC.
