FINAL FANTASY 9 CARD LOCATIONS LIST Made by Barubary (barubary@lfx.org) Completed 01/22/2001 (Revision 2) (C) 2000-2001. Redistribution permitted, provided that this notice is retained. Modification then subsequent redistribution is prohibited. All other rights reserved. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a complete list of all cards in the game, and, more importantly, where to get them. This list is great when you're at the end of the game, trying to find the last few cards. The purpose of this list is not to teach you how to play the card game. It is to help you find every card in the game. If you want help playing the card game, please go to another FAQ. I'm not trying to blow you off. I just think that the other FAQs out there have a perfectly good explanation of how to play the game. This list is all about my "perfect game" project - getting 254/255 items (excludes Tin Armor) and 100 cards. Since you're in a rush to get to Excalibur II, you simply don't have time to pick up everything along the way. Every card except one (Namingway) can be received after getting Excalibur II, when the time pressure is off. Only one card must be received before Disk 4: Namingway. You can get this on Disk 3 before you go to Terra. There are 4 main ways to get cards: - "Buy it": Some cards can actually be bought from someone. - "Win it": You get these cards by playing with someone and winning the card. - "Acquired": This card is dropped by enemies sometimes. - "Get it": It's in one of the Chocobo treasures. Exceptions Legend ** You can't get this card at the very end of the game, so get it earlier. ## There's only a finite number of these cards, so don't lose them. If you know of an "infinite" method to get a card on Disk 4, or a way to get Namingway on Disk 4, email me. Please don't tell me about playing against Gilgamesh (the four-armed man in Daguerreo) - he disappears as soon as you have an S rating so I don't count him. For me, that happened to be the first time I talked to him. I get 4-5 emails a week telling me about it, so I've made this notice more clear. Look for a similar list for items soon. -- Barubary 1 Goblin Buy it in Treno outside the Card Stadium 2 Fang Buy it in Treno outside the Card Stadium 3 Skeleton Buy it in Treno outside the Card Stadium 4 Flan Buy it in Treno outside the Card Stadium 5 Zaghnol Win from "Drunk" in Treno/Knight's House 6 Lizard Man Win from "Drunk" in Treno/Knight's House 7 Zombie Win from "Self-Proclaimed Artist Michael" in Lindblum 8 Bomb Win from "Self-Proclaimed Artist Michael" in Lindblum 9 Ironite Win from "Self-Proclaimed Artist Michael" in Lindblum 10 Sahagin Win from "Self-Proclaimed Artist Michael" in Lindblum 11 Yeti Win from "Thug" in Treno/Gate 12 Mimic Win from "Thug" in Treno/Gate 13 Wyerd Win from "Thug" in Treno/Gate 14 Mandragora Win from "Thug" in Treno/Gate 15 Crawler Win from "Weimar" in Alexandria/Steeple 16 Sand Scorpion Win from "Ashley" in Alexandria/Alley 17 Nymph Win from "Weimar" in Alexandria/Steeple 18 Sand Golem Win from "Weimar" in Alexandria/Steeple 19 Zuu Win from "Ashley" in Alexandria/Alley 20 Dragonfly Win from "Girl" in Treno/Walkway (outside Tot's tower) 21 Carrion Worm Win from "Mario" in Treno/Treno Slums 22 Cerberus Win from "Young Woman" in Lindblum's Business District 23 Antlion Win from "Young Woman" in Lindblum's Business District 24 Cactuar Win from "Young Woman" in Lindblum's Business District 25 Gimme Cat Win from "Young Woman" in Lindblum's Business District 26 Ragtimer Win from "Card Freak" in Lindblum's *Theater* District 27 Hedgehog Pie Win from "Card Freak" in Lindblum's *Theater* District 28 Ralvuimahgo Win from "Card Freak" in Lindblum's *Theater* District 29 Ochu Win from "Card Freak" in Lindblum's *Theater* District 30 Troll Win from "Scholar" in Daguerreo/Right Hall 31 Blazer Beetle Win from "Adventurer" in Daguerreo/Left Hall 32 Abomination Win from "Adventurer" in Daguerreo/Left Hall 33 Zemzelett Win from "Adventurer" in Daguerreo/Left Hall 34 Stroper Win from "Adventurer" in Daguerreo/Left Hall 35 Tantarian Win from "Scholar" in Daguerreo/Right Hall 36 Grand Dragon Win from "No. 189" in Black Mage Village/Pond 37 Feather Circle Win from "No. 44" in Black Mage Village/Pond 38 Hecteyes Win from "No. 44" in Black Mage Village/Pond 39 Ogre Win from "No. 44" in Black Mage Village/Pond 40 Armstrong Win from "No. 44" in Black Mage Village/Pond 41 Ash Win from "No. 56" in Black Mage Village/Cemetery 42 Wraith Win from "No. 56" in Black Mage Village/Cemetery 43 Gargoyle Win from "No. 56" in Black Mage Village/Cemetery 44 Vepal Win from "No. 44" in Black Mage Village/Pond 45 Grimlock Win from "Straight Shooter Shak" at Treno Card Stadium 46 Tonberry Win from "Straight Shooter Shak" at Treno Card Stadium 47 Veteran Win from "Straight Shooter Shak" at Treno Card Stadium 48 Garuda Win from "Straight Shooter Shak" at Treno Card Stadium 49 Malboro Win from "Malboro Master Joe" at Treno Card Stadium 50 Mover Win from "Beast Master Gilbert" at Treno Card Stadium 51 Abadon Win from "Beast Master Gilbert" at Treno Card Stadium 52 Behemoth Win from "Beast Master Gilbert" at Treno Card Stadium 53 Iron Man Win from "Beast Master Gilbert" at Treno Card Stadium 54 Nova Dragon Win from "Master Phantom" in Memoria/Stairs of Time 55 Ozma Win from "Dark Phantom" in Memoria/Stairs 56 Hades Win from "Master Phantom" in Memoria/Stairs of Time 57 Holy Win from "Magic Master Thalisa" at Treno Card Stadium 58 Meteor Win from "Magic Master Thalisa" at Treno Card Stadium 59 Flare Win from "Magic Master Thalisa" at Treno Card Stadium 60 Shiva Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 61 Ifrit Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 62 Ramuh Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 63 Atomos Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 64 Odin Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 65 Leviathan Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 66 Bahamut Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 67 Ark Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 68 Fenrir Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 69 Madeen Win from "Strong Phantom" in Memoria/Lost Memory 70 Alexander Win from "Eidolon Master Leyra" at Treno Card Stadium 71 Excalibur II Win from "Weapon Master Hunt" at Treno -

Revision History ---------------- Revision 0: 12/25/2000 - Initial release. Revision 1: 12/30/2000 - Removed Carrion Worm from Disk 3 only list. - Dark Phantom's Ozma, thanks to Erik Strawn. - Rewrote beginning paragraphs. - Added note about how to play against Lani. - Found another way to get Dragonfly. - Found another way to get Wraith (Erik Strawn). Revision 2: 01/22/2001 - Changed all the "acquired" cards except Gargant to winning in Black Mage Village. - Removed Lani because all her cards are in Black Mage Village too. - Moved Tiger Racket to Black Mage Village. - Made note about Gilgamesh more clear. - Deleted Seaways Canyon and Sacrobless Island from "weird locations" list. Credits ------- - Aaron Tadeo, for his excellent walkthrough/FAQ on GameFAQs. This list tries to mimic his card list, except with every card's location. His list told me where to get the majority of the rare cards. Not to mention how helpful his walkthrough was for the rest of the game. - PlayOnline (Square) for their ridiculous enemy list. - Erik Strawn, for telling me about where to get Carrion Worm on Disk 4, and an infinite number of Ozma cards. He also says that the Fat Chocobo will use Fat Chocobo against you sometimes, but after 50 games with him, I haven't seen it yet. :( (I confirmed Carrion Worm and Ozma, however.) He also told me an alternate (and much easier) way to get Wraith. - "Novabird", for telling me that you can get a bunch of cards more easily in Black Mage Village.
