No I actually got 3 sprint shoes from dismantling the Tetraiadic accessories. Like fobi0 wrote, they have to be Star level before dismantling.
Nah. There really isn’t one in the game.
If you save after beating the game, you’ll be in the save point right before the boss. So all you have to do is backtrack out of there and you’re good.
Oh and max Hyades Magnums = GG. For way cheaper than upgrading to max Total Eclipses, Hyades gets 1140 STR, whereas Total Eclipse (Pleiades>Hyades> upgrade) you get only 1150.
After dicking around doing quests and stuff, I decided to beat the game so I can get the full crystarium and have a better chance for the tougher quests. It was a lot easier than I expected, final boss went down after 2 staggers (1st stagger took off 60%). It was easy to stagger and once staggered I used Sahz’s Cold Blood, then just attack the shit out of it. Though I did have 3 Seraphic crowns or whatever they’re called on my leader so I had 94% resist death.
I think he means, that you don’t need to dismantle 3 accessories before the crown/tiara. You can just get them to star level and the dismantle them
Sup Neochu?
Spam Death for 15 minutes…“oh, shit, it worked…er, time to fight…”
I take my Growth Egg over hard.
That’s not what I’m talking about. Motoki posted up earlier, like on page 8 or some shit, that in order to get sprint shoes you have to upgrade the tiatridic (or however you spell it) to star level and then dismantle three accessories, not back out of the menu, and then disasemble the tiara. You don’t have to disasemble three accessories. You just have to do the tiara.

edit Here’s what he posted from another forum.
That part about needing to dismantle three accessories isn’t true. I tested it last night 4 times. A fully upgraded tiatradic or (however you spell it) tiara will give you sprint shoes outright, without needing break down three other accessories.
About to try this out, thanks for the tip.
EDIT: I might be doing something wrong, but Method #2 (using the Crown), doesn’t work out. You get a bunch of items and Hermes’ Sandals, not Sprint Shoes.
You’re better off getting a Tetradic Tiara since that actually works.
@Ronin- My bad mate, sorry ^_^;
With Sprint Shoes…if you get Hermes Sandles that you can upgrade to Sprint shoes with a perovskite componet as your catalyst.
So no sweat if you get Hermes sandles, you just have a lil upgrade b4 you get sprint shoes.
I just wanted to say F that Plant shit Neochou!!!
Now i dont want the growth egg…lol.
My Snow Sazh and Vanile were chilling sitting on 999,999 cp thought i could hang nope. after getting one shotted like 25times i went and max 3 roles for them.
Now Im going back. hopefully i can get lucky like peeps do with death. I’ve survived to get off 3-4 death spells then im toast.
But now I got all types of buffs with peeps. So vanille Snow and Hope are gonna have to get this ish done…lol.
I haerd you can use Impreil first but Im like i can barely get 2-4 death spells how the hell am I suppose to hit him with that first b4 death fuck that!!..lol.
So think my new team is gonna work out for this mission 55 b.s.
What do you guys have on Snow? Of course Im gonna max his Sent role other than that i think he could be a 6th man Commando.
i’m on the same mission. same situation. shit’s taking me forever.
vanille, fang, snow
starting out with sab, com, sent. spam out imperil. then mash death.
i’ve been on it for about an hour (with the fight lasting ~5minutes before i die ) and i cant seem to kill neochu(sp?)
Be patient guys you’ll get it ;3 The feeling of joy at killing that fat bitch is pretty satisfying…assuming u had come prepaired for taking out the gremlin after killing Neochu 
Ronin, if u go back and read, I actually quoted your post earlier (a few days ago) and told u that the info was incorrect. I went and dismantled a crown and a tiara at max level to see what I’d get since I have a few of everything in my inventory and I told u what u had to do to get sprint shoes (although I think I had the crown and the tiara switched). I even edited the orginal post (which is on page 1 not page 8) five days ago to stop any confusion since it’s in the beginning part of the thread and somebody might wonder about it after coming across it. I guess you didn’t read either post, tho.
I finished chapter 13 and proceeding to play the missions now. Fuck Orphan…that is all :].
closing in on my treasure hunter achievement, got all accessories, now it’s time to hone in on the last 2 ultimate weapons and then level 2’s of everything else.
one really easy trick to keeping upgrade costs down for accessories and low level weapons is to spam mission 34 (the tonberry fight that gives you access to the fault warrens), the mission takes around 1 minute to complete from the time that you click the cie’the stone and enter the fight etc, and it gives up 7 bomb cores each time which work great in low level upgrades (they have a base exp of like 1k or something). so for most elemental resist and status resist accessories you just feed 5 cores and bam it’s max level and ready for it’s transformation item.
nice tip, gonna try that after class today
You’re doing it right, Hermes’ Sandals upgrades to Sprint Shoes like Rodimus said.
Right now though, I’m stuck on Vercingtorex(SP?). I got greedy during one attempt and tried to stick out Highwind before he finished Wicked Whirl… needless to say, he finished first and I didn’t. He was at 2.1m HP too q_q.
EDIT: Another easy mission to do for bomb cores would be Mission #7 : Bitutius. The cie’th stone and the mark are right next to each other and Bitutius has a chance to drop tetradic crown and tetradic tiaras. You get, I think, 5 cores per run.
got lucky on the growth egg mission and killed him with death.
ironic part is that i didnt think it’d hit so my paradigms were all fucked up.
i changed my team from vanille, fang, snow to vanille, hope, snow
at least i got the egg and it’s making lvling up a hell of a lot easier
What paradigms do you recommend for neocho (growth egg mission). I’ve beaten him on the titan mission with Sab, med, sent (death spam ftw!) but in that version he doesn’t have his little “coconuts” with him. And you don’t get growth egg 
So what paradigms did you guys use for him? I figured I need around 5 million cp to complete the remainder of crystarium, so growth egg would be really useful right now!
P.s; I freaking love the sabotuer role.
Oh, it’s all good man. I was just posting because I showed my friend the trick the other day, because he read some where that he had to do the same thing that you posted, initially. Just wanted to clarify.
