Final fantasy 9 where to find chocographs

This page covers the Chocograph side quest , which involves treasure hunting out on the world map using a Chocobo, cryptic clues, and maps known as - you guessed it - Chocographs.

Unearthing the treasure for each Chocograph is a fairly easy task, though actually gaining the Chocographs will take a little bit of time. On occasion, you will also dig up a Chocograph Piece. There are 6 Chocograph Pieces; when you have all 6, the Mist Ocean Chocograph that wields the ability to fly will finally be yours. While actually getting the chocographs is simple enough, knowing where they are is a little more complicated, and that's where the time sink comes.

The map features basic color-coded blobs - the yellow dots are Chocographs. Also, the blue ones are ocean bubbles , and the red ones are mountain cracks. You can dig cracks and dive at bubbles by using a Dead Pepper item, while regular Chocograph hunts simply require a Chocobo.

Every so often as you dig up Chocographs you'll be transported to a dream world which fits into the wider Chocobo quests.

Completing the Chocograph side quest specifically will unlock you a wide range of powerful items that'll make your journey through FF9 much more bearable, but also on modern versions of the game locating all 24 Chocographs will unlock the Diggin' It Trophy or Achievement. From there, press the [Triangle] button to open the Chocograph menu, select the treasure you want to search for, and exit the menu. Each Chocograph also lists the skills your Chocobo must possess in order to find that treasure.

The Chocograph will appear grayed out on the menu until Choco has the proper abilities to find it - and abilities are unlocked via other Chocograph treasures. Now toggle the [Select] button until the mini-map appears in the lower right-hand corner of the screen. The picture of the treasure's location should appear just above the mini-map. Ride Choco to that location and begin searching for the treasure by pressing the Square button.

Choco will make similar sounds as in the "Chocobo Hot and Cold Game" to indicate the proximity of the treasure, ranging from "Kweh. Below, we break down the location of every Chocograph and rewards for finding each.

Do keep in mind that the order listed is the order in which you'll obtain Chocographs, but you might not be able to actually obtain them in that order. For instance, the 4th Chocograph is far easier to obtain much later in the game. Find Chocograph 1, Streamside, on the Mist Continent.

Follow the river to the ocean, near where a bridge connects the two sides of the river. Get to digging for the chocograph on the beach shore to the western side. As the description tells you, you'll want to get yourself sandwiched between two mountains that flank a path to the ocean on the south-western side of the Mist Continent. It's near the Lindblum plateau. This is a nice, easy landmark to find, but you can use the screenshot, video, or map to help if needed.

This one is also near the river. It's on a darkened, marsh-looking patch of fertile land to the side of the river, not far from the Evil Forest. Find the 4th Chocograph on the Healing Shore, which is in the north-western quadrant of the Mist Continent, just along the shore.

This is the first chocograph chronologically that sees you leave the Mist Continent - it can be found on the Outer Continent the top-right continent on the world map on a beach that's fairly central on the island. It's just south-east of Qu's Marsh. Chocograph 6's Cold Field is found on the Lost Continent the smallest continent in the top-left.

Yeah, I've yet to beat it myself. I can barely beat the last two bosses. They are horribly overpowered. User Info: AoiKaoru4. Took me an hour to get all 9 from Chocobo forest. I guess the RNG was on my side. This current playthrough it took me all of about 45 minutes to dig them up. It also helps if you have a decent strategy at quickly finding the dig points so you get the bonus time. Obviously the more time you have the better your chances are of finding a chocograph.

The worst thing is knowing you have one in your dig, but having time run out about 1 or 2 pecks away from obtaining it. I would definitely try it out again if you can turn your luck around. Not only do you get some of the best equipment in the game, but you can't fight the uber boss of this game without a gold chocobo. And don't forget about the best armor in the gameHawaiian Shirts.
