Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly - Strategy Guide (Page 06)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly - Strategy Guide (Page 06).

--KUROSAWA, 2F DOLL STAND ROOM
  Sae's ghost is hiding in here.
**********
!!-Hidden Ghost: SAE KUROSAWA (1000)
  To find the ghost, look behind the partition screen in the SW corner.  Aim
your camera down into the corner and your Capture Circle will turn blue.
**********
  After capturing the ghost, return to the Guest Room Hallway.  Go through the
door in the middle of the hall, back to the Master's Room.

--KUROSAWA, 2F MASTER'S ROOM
  On the cushions by the balcony, you will find CHRYSOCOLLA 1.  Pick it up and
then go through the N door to the Partition Screen Room, then go downstairs.

--KUROSAWA, 1F STORAGE ROOM
  You'll see some TYPE-14 FILM on top of a box here.  Get it, then head all the
way down the Cloth Hallway into the Warehouse.  Then go S into the Cell to find
a Vanishing Ghost.

--KUROSAWA, 1F CELL
  The Folklorist's ghost will appear when you approach the cell door.
**********
!!-Vanishing Ghost: PRISONER (~1200)
  When the ghost appears, switch to the Finder and aim between the bars of the
cell to capture the ghost.  You will probably need to use the R Stick to line
yourself up for a good shot.
**********
  When the ghost disappears, FOLKLORIST 11 will be left behind, as well as
LAZULITE 2.   After getting these items, return to the Cloth Hallway and go
through the double doors, back to the Family Altar Room.  As you open the door,
there will be a brief scene in which you control Mayu.  As usual, with these
scenes, just follow the crimson butterflies down the path.

--KUROSAWA, 1F FAMILY ALTAR ROOM
  The BUTTERFLY DIARY 6 will be lying here on the floor.  If you're replaying
the game, approach the altar and there will be a Hidden Ghost.
**********
!!-Hidden Ghost: RYOKAN KUROSAWA (1000) [Sense Function required.]
  Walk up to the altar and aim your Camera at the screens behind it.  Take a
shot when your Capture Circle glows.
**********
  After capturing the ghost, go downstairs (doesn't matter which side) and then
through the door.  Continue along the passage until you come to the Connecting
Corridor.

--KUROSAWA, 1F CONNECTING CORRIDOR
  Follow the trail of crimson butterflies down the W path.  A Vanishing Ghost
will appear when you are about a third of the way down the path.
**********
!!-Vanishing Ghost: WHITE KIMONO (~300)
  When you hear the chimes and see the static haze, switch to the Finder and
aim to your right over at the other path to capture an image of Sae.
**********
  When you reach the end of the corridor, you'll automatically be able to go
through the door.

--KUROSAWA, 1F LATTICE ROOM
  Pick up the TYPE-61 FILM that's lying just inside the door and then SAVE THE
GAME.  You will confront the Ceremony Master in the next room.

--KUROSAWA, 1F ROPE TEMPLE
  As you enter the Rope Temple, there will be a cutscene ... and then get ready
to do battle with the Ceremony Master.
**********
!!-Attacking Ghost: MR. KUROSAWA
  It might be a good idea to use some stronger film for this battle.  The
Ceremony Master has three different attacks.  First, he'll try to circle around
behind you and rush in to grab you.  If he begins circling, keep your eye on
him through the Finder and wait for him to start closing in.  When he does,
begin backing away so that his attack will miss.  When he makes his lunge,
you'll have a good opportunity to hit him with a Fatal Frame and follow up with
some good combo shots.  Use your Blast Lens or Zero Lens during the combo to
maximize your damage.   His second attack is to summon two Veiled Priests. 
After summoning the priests, he will disappear and let you fight them for a
while.  You don't have to defeat them before the Ceremony Master will return,
but if you can defeat them, he won't be able to use this attack any more.  His
third attack is to fling three wisps at you.  There is no Shutter Moment during
this attack, so there is no way to interrupt it.  However, if you start backing
away when he flings the wisps, there will be a brief second AFTER the attack
when you can score a Fatal Frame.  This battle is made a lot more difficult by
the many pillars, which will obstruct your view.  If you can adapt to this
ghost's pattern of attack, then you should be able to win without much trouble.
 Don't forget to use some Herbal Medicine when you get hurt.
**********
  After defeating Mr. Kurosawa, you will get the MASTER'S KEY and CHRYSOCOLLA
2.  Two new entries appear in the Memo Book: KUSABI and HIDDEN CEREMONY.  If
you're replaying the game, you'll be able to capture a Hidden Ghost.
**********
!!-Hidden Ghost: SEIJIRO MAKABE (1000) [Sense Function required.]
  Step up to the Rope Altar and aim your Camera up into the ropes.  Your
Capture Circle will glow blue and you'll be able to get a clear shot of this
ghost.
**********
  Before going through the north door, go back to the Lattice room and SAVE THE
GAME!  This will be your last chance to save before the end!  The next area,
the Spiral Passageway, contains no items or ghosts.  Just go down the hall and
through the door at the end.

--VILLAGE, B1 PASSAGEWAY
  You'll find FLOURITE 4 as soon as you enter this area.  This passageway is
very very long and several Mourners will attack you as you make your way down
it.  You can fight these ghosts if you want, or you can flee.  Even if you
decide not to fight them, you'll probably still take at least one shot so you
can stun them and run past.
**********
!!-Attacking Ghosts: THE MOURNER x8
  Fighting these ghosts in this narrow passageway is difficult.  Remember to
turn and run away after hitting with a Zero Shot so you don't get nailed by its
counter attack.  These ghost's sole purpose is to wear down your supplies
before you get to the final boss.
**********
  When you reach the first turn in the hallway, you'll find a STONE MIRROR
lying in front of the cave-in.  Continue down the passageway.  After you pass a
section with some hairpin curves, the perspective will change to a vantage
point from a hidden cave inside the wall.  If you look carefully, you'll notice
there is a big crevice in the side of the passage.  You will be able to find a
hidden ghost here.
**********
!!-Hidden Ghost: FAILED KUSABI (1000)
  Aim your Camera through the crevice on the E side of the passage at the
skeletal remains on the other side.  Take the shot when your Capture Circle
turns blue.
**********
  Just beyond the crevice, you will see some cave-ins on the left and right. 
Search the one on the E side to find some TYPE-90 FILM.  At the end of the
passage, you will come to the Sacrificial Altar.

--VILLAGE, B1 SACRIFICIAL ALTAR
  A Vanishing Ghost appears when you enter this chamber.
**********
!!-Vanishing Ghosts: ETERNAL RITUAL 1 & 2 (~400)
  Unlike most Vanishing Ghosts, these ghosts will not...vanish.  They're right
in front of you, among the ceremonial candles.  You will see two Lock Circles
when you aim at this ghost, because it counts as two entries in your Spirit
List.  The ghost will still be visible even after you've photographed it.
**********
  After capturing the ghost, switch to Type-90 Film and head down the stairs at
the S end of the room to trigger a cutscene. ... After the cutscene, your
battle with the Kusabi will begin.
**********
!!-Attacking Ghost: ROPE MAN
  When the battle starts, you'll be standing in front of a mist-filled archway.
 As soon as the perspective changes, you'll be able to move around.  Run
towards the center of the room and switch to the Finder.  The Kusabi will
approach you.  As he gets close and gets ready to make a swipe, there will be a
Shutter Moment.  If you don't take a Zero Shot at this time, the ghost will
touch you and you will die.  The Kusabi will teleport after every shot.  DO NOT
SWITCH OUT OF FINDER MODE!  If you try to run away, Rope Man will be able to
heal himself as he teleports.  What you should do is keep aiming at him as he
moves around and take Zero Shots when he comes in to attack.  Your Blast Lens
and Zero Lens will be effective against this ghost; you will definitely need to
use one of these Lenses to deliver the killing blow.  Even though he can kill
you in one touch and he has a lot of stamina, his pattern is very simple.  You
should be able to beat him on the first try.
**********
  Go down the steps and pick up the FINAL LETTER.  If you're playing the game
on Easy or Normal Mode, continue down the steps.  After a cutscene, ... you
will have a last opportunity to take a picture of Mayu.
**********
!!-Vanishing Ghost: HELLISH ABYSS MAYU (0)
  Take a picture of your sister as she stands at the brink of the abyss.  Your
Filament and Capture Circle won't react, and you won't get any points, but it
does count on your Spirit List.  If you're playing the game on Hard or
Nightmare Mode, you won't be able to take this picture.
**********
 Now sit back to watch the final cutscene. ... Congratulations, you've beaten
the game!

  IF, however, you are playing on Hard or Nightmare Mode, you're not quite
finished.


J. CHAPTER ZERO: HELLISH ABYSS
******************************
  You only see this chapter if you're playing on Hard or Nightmare Mode.

--VILLAGE, B1 HELLISH ABYSS
  There will be a cutscene ... as you enter the Abyss.  In order to trigger the
final battle, switch to Finder mode and slowly begin walking toward your
sister.  When you are about six or seven paces away, she will come at you. 
Keep your finger near the shutter button, because there will be a VERY SHORT
Fatal Frame moment as she approaches.  If you do not get the shot, she will
grab you and you will die EVEN if you have a Stone Mirror.  If you do succeed
in getting the shot, then you will proceed to the final battle versus Sae. 
(This shot of Mayu will not be put on your Spirit List.)
**********
!!-Attacking Ghost: BLOODY KIMONO
  Sae will spend most the battle enveloped in a cloud of red mist.  She is
completely invulnerable whilst inside this cloud.  After standing and laughing
at you for a while, she'll start walking toward you.  When she begins to get
close, she'll lunge for your neck.  Make sure you are facing away from her as
she starts to approach.  Then, as she begins to make her lunge, run!  If you
time this properly, her attack will miss.  Even if she does grab you, you can
use the Evade function to hopefully avoid taking damage.  She will repeat this
lunging attack three times.  After the third attack, she will appear and the
red cloud of mist will disappear.  Aim at her through the Camera; when the
Shutter Moment occurs, WAIT.  At the end of the Shutter Moment, there will be a
short opportunity for a Fatal Frame.  This is when you should strike.  Start
off the Combo with your Zero Lens or Blast Lens to inflict maximum damage.  If
you're using Type-61 Film or stronger, and you can succeed in chaining together
a couple of combos, you will win the fight.  Don't let the occasional tremors
bother you--they will slow you down, but they will slow Sae down as well.
**********
  There is a Hidden Ghost that you can find DURING this battle.  You must
capture it before the battle is over if you want it.
**********
!!-Hidden Ghost: SWALLOWED BY DARK (1000)
  To find the ghost, stand at the far edge of the Hellish Abyss (the S edge). 
You will get a blue glow from your Filament when you are near the right spot. 
Aim down into the Abyss to find the ghost.  You'll get a good opportunity to
find this ghost when Sae is laughing, before she starts her lunges.
**********
  After the battle, you will still be confronting Sae near the edge of the
Abyss.  Switch to Finder mode and give her one last parting shot. 
Congratulations!  Sit back and watch the final cutscene ... !

4. NIGHTMARE MODE: Ghosts inflict maximum damage and have strong resistance to
your Camera.  Herbal Medicine is not as effective.  Only available after
completing the game in Hard Mode.

C. MISSION MODE
***************
  Mission Mode becomes available after you have cleared the game in Easy or
Normal Mode.  When you load your Clear Data file, this Mode will be one of your
new choices.  It consists of 25 different capture challenges that you can try. 
Each Mission has its own unique requirements, which I have detailed for you
below, along with some tips on clearing them successfully.  During each Mission
you can use all the Lenses, Equipment, and Upgrades that you have installed on
your Camera, but the type and amount of Film and Healing Items will be limited
depending on which Mission you choose.  There are even some Missions where you
do not start with full health!  As you complete each Mission you will receive a
Ranking and a Spirit Point award.  The Spirit Points you receive depend on the
Mission and is independent of your rank; you only get the Spirit Point award
the first time you clear the Mission (you don't get to keep the points you earn
during the Mission itself).   The ranking system is based on the following
grades: C, B, A, S, and SS, with C being the worst and SS being the best.  If
you barely meet the minimum requirement for clearing the Mission you'll get a C
rank.  Getting an SS or even an S rank is very very difficult.  The Mission
screen will show you statistics on how many Missions you have cleared and how
many S or SS ranks you have scored.
  In order to complete these Missions, you will definitely need to have to
maxed out the Basic Functions of your Camera.  It will also help if you have
upgraded some of your Lenses, especially the Slow Lens, Blast Lens, and Zero
Lens.  Since you can't play Mission Mode without completing the game, you
shouldn't have had any problem making these upgrades.  For most of these
battles, earning an SS rank will be practically impossible until you have
beaten the game in Hard Mode and acquired the Stop and Crush Lenses.
  A useful technique for earning the huge scores needed to obtain an S or SS
rank is to combine your high-damage lenses, such as the Blast, Zero, or Crush
Lens, with a Fatal Frame Combo.  If you begin a Combo chain, save your Power-Up
Lens for the third shot in the Combo and you'll get a massive score.
  [NOTE: Ghosts captured in Mission Mode do not count toward completing your
Spirit List.]

MISSION 1
*********
SPIRITS: Miyako Sudo [Wanderer] & Masumi Makimura [Rest in Piece]
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 2000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: Osaka House, 2F Study
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (30), Herbal Medicine (3)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 3000

The best tactic here is to quickly eliminate one of the ghosts with normal
shots, stocking up Spirit Power as you do so.  It doesn't matter which one you
get rid of first, for it is fairly easy to get a Zero Shot on either ghost as
it moves in to grab you.  To get the best score, use the Zero Lens or Blast
Lens to increase your damage.  Getting a Fatal Frame with either ghost is
somewhat tricky, since the chance for each ghost only occurs after it has made
a lunge.  This means you must run away while it lunges at you, then quickly
turn to get the Fatal Frame while the ghost is recovering from its attack.  You
can easily score over 2000 without trying to get the Fatal Frame.

MISSION 2
*********
SPIRITS: Broken Neck Woman
TO CLEAR: Defeat the ghost within 45 seconds
RANK: Best time
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 2F Doll Stand Room
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (10)
HEALTH: 50%
AWARD: 3000

In order to clear this Mission you will definitely need to use your Slow
Function.  Take a few quick shots to stock up your Spirit Power, then hit her
with the Slow Lens.  This will make it much easier to score a Fatal Frame Combo
when she lunges in for the attack.  Getting the Combo Shot is key to ending the
battle quickly.

MISSION 3
*********
SPIRITS: Drowned Woman [Sunken Woman]
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 1000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: All God's Village, Whisper Bridge
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (15), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 2500

An easy mission.  If you score a Zero Shot, you are pretty much guaranteed to
get a little over 1000 points, even without using any special Lenses.

MISSION 4
*********
SPIRITS: Veiled Priest (3)
TO CLEAR: Get a total of 5000 points or more
RANK: Total points
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 1F Great Hall
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (50), Type-Zero Film (5), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 3000

The difficulty in clearing this mission lies not so much in scoring 5000 total
points, but surviving the assault of 3 Priests at once.  If you are having
trouble outlasting these guys, I recommend equipping the Type-Zero film right
off the bat and trying to eliminate one (or two, if possible) of the priests
quickly.  Then switch to the weaker film to finish off the last priest, and use
the Zero or Blast Lens to boost your damage and your score.  If you are going
for a high rank, then use the weaker film first, saving the Type-Zero Film for
your best shots after you have accumulated Spirit Power.

MISSION 5
*********
SPIRITS: Broken Neck Woman & Woman in Box
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 2000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: Tachibana, 1F Regular Tatami Room
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (20), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 3000

The same tactic for Mission 1 applies here.  It's easiest to take out Broken
Neck first, since she is the fastest and attacks most often.  You should be
able to charge up your Spirit Power as you take her down.  Then, use your
accumulated Power to get a big score on the remaining ghost with your Zero Lens
or Blast Lens.

MISSION 6
*********
SPIRITS: Children Playing Tag (4) [Boy Playing Tag (2), Girl Playing Tag (2)]
TO CLEAR: Capture all spirits within 5 minutes
RANK: Clear time
LOCATION: Osaka House, 1F Sunken Fireplace Room
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (30), Type-Zero Film (4), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 3000

There are four ghosts to capture in this battle.  They only appear two at a
time however, which makes survival fairly easy.  It is difficult to capture
these ghosts because they aren't vulnerable very often and they like to
teleport around.  When they call out "Over here!", that is your time to take a
shot.  You may have to keep sight on a ghost for a long time before a Shutter
Chance appears.  Since your goal is to end the battle quickly, use the Blast
Lens or Zero Lens for maximum damage, and don't hesitate to use the Type-Zero
Film.

MISSION 7
*********
SPIRITS: ???? [Limbo Man, Limbo Woman, Man in Dark, Pole Bearer]
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 2000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 1F Great Hall
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (30), Type-61 Film (10), Type-Zero Film (5), Herbal
Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 5000

When you start this battle, all the ghosts except Man in Dark will be
surrounding you.  There is a simple strategy that will make completing this
mission very easy.  First, use the Type-61 Film to take out the Limbo Couple
first, since they are the most aggressive.  Then take out the Pole Bearer.  Do
not approach the Man in Dark, who will stay off in a corner and won't attack
you if stay away from him.  Once you have charged up your Spirit Power by
fighting the other three ghosts, switch to Type-Zero Film and use the Blast or
Zero Lens to take a massive shot on the Man in Dark.  If you train your Camera
on him without getting too close, you can score a Fatal Frame as he stands
there looking around.  Mission complete!

MISSION 8
*********
SPIRITS: The Mourner (3)
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 1000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: All God's Village, Kureha Shrine
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (40), Type-61 Film (10), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 5000

Fighting three Mourners at once is hard enough without having to worry about
getting a high score!  You have fought this type of ghost before, so hopefully
you are familiar with the techniques that you must use against this particular
type of spirit.  (If not, see the strategy for this ghost in the walkthrough
section.)  Since you are in a somewhat cramped room, it's not too hard to get a
Double or Triple Shot against these guys.  This will help you attain the high
score.  If you use the Type-61 Film, a good Zero Shot should easily meet the
requirements of this mission.

MISSION 9
*********
SPIRITS: Man in Dark (4)
TO CLEAR: Defeat all spirits in less than 2 minutes
RANK: Best time
LOCATION: Kiryu House, 2F Connecting Corridor
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (20), Type-Zero Film (3), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 4000

This is a tough mission because of the very tiny space you have to maneuver in
and the large number of ghosts surrounding you.  When you start, you will be in
the center of the bridge with 2 ghosts on either side of you.  Quickly switch
to the Type-Zero Film, then snap a picture to one side or the other before you
get grabbed, if you can.  Try to run through the ghosts while they are
recovering from your shot so you can get all the ghosts on one side of you. 
Then take aim again and keep shooting; don't wait for the Zero Shot!  You want
to defeat all these guys as fast you can.  The only advantage you have is that
these ghosts are weak; they can't cause a lot of damage and they don't have a
lot of stamina.  If you get seriously hurt, however, don't forget that you have
one dose of Herbal Medicine that you can use.

MISSION 10
**********
SPIRITS: ???? [Man in Dark, Seeker, Pole Bearer, Broken Neck Woman]
TO CLEAR: Get a total of 8000 points or more
RANK: Total points
LOCATION: Kiryu House, 1F Entrance
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (50), Type-Zero Film (3), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 3000

This is an unusual battle, because Mayu is here with you.  She is on the other
side of the torn screens in a side room, and the ghosts will appear in there
with her.  You must use your Camera to defend her from the attacking ghosts,
which will pretty much ignore you and concentrate on attacking your sister. 
You can't get into the room where Mayu is, so you must make all your shots
through the holes in the screen.  The ghosts will appear in three waves: first,
Man in Dark; second, Seeker and Pole Bearer; third, Broken Neck Woman.  Getting
over 8000 points shouldn't be too hard if you use the Blast or Zero Lens to
make some good shots.  Furthermore, since the ghosts usually won't attack YOU,
can score a Fatal Frame as the ghosts launch attacks on Mayu.

MISSION 11
**********
SPIRITS: Woman in Box (9)
TO CLEAR: Capture all spirits within 7 minutes
RANK: Clear time
LOCATION: Below Kurosawa, Underground Cellar
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (20), Type-Zero Film (5), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 50%
AWARD: 3000

That's right, there are NINE of these ghosts to defeat.  Fortunately, they
won't appear all at once, and they will all appear in the same place: crawling
out of the well.  They will appear at roughly 30-second intervals.  If you keep
your camera trained on the well, you can defeat the ghosts as they emerge.  The
main challenge here is that you have only a limited amount of film.  Because of
this, you must pay close attention to your timing of the Zero Shots.  If you
waste more than a few frames of film on missed shots, you won't have enough
film to complete the mission.  Use the Type-14 Film first, and save the
Type-Zero Film for last.  Also, use the Blast or Zero Lens to get some extra
mileage out of your film, but don't waste it on a ghost that's nearly dead.  If
you time your shots well you will complete the mission.

MISSION 12
**********
SPIRITS: Mechanical-doll Maker [Doll Maker]
TO CLEAR: Capture all spirits within 3 minutes
RANK: Clear time
LOCATION: Kiryu House, 1F Hanging Doll Room
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (20), Type-Zero Film (1), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 50%
AWARD: 5000

Your low health is a liability in this mission, but if you know how to defend
yourself against the dolls it shouldn't be a problem.  (Remember that you can
render the dolls inert if you take a picture of the Doll Maker while they are
chasing you.)  A good strategy is to use the weak film to take as many shots as
you can as quickly as you can, don't wait for the Zero Shot.  Do this to build
up your Spirit Points.  When you have three Spirit Points accumulated, switch
to the Type-Zero Film and hit him with the Zero Lens.  This one big shot should
be enough to finish the battle.

MISSION 13
**********
SPIRITS: Child Running By
TO CLEAR: Capture the spirit
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: Tachibana, 2F Sliding Screen Room
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (1), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 3000

This fun mission is a nice change of pace.  All you have to do is take aim
through the gap in the screens, then wait for the ghost to run by.  You'll want
to aim downward a little bit; place the crosshair over the candle that's
visible in the gap and you'll be just right.  As the child streaks past the
gap, the Capture Circle will turn blue.  Quickly take your shot at that time! 
That's all there is to it.  This is definitely the easiest mission to get an S
or SS rank in.

MISSION 14
**********
SPIRITS: Miyako Sudo [Wanderer] & Masumi Makimura [Rest in Piece]
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 1000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 2F Flickering Room
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (30), Herbal Medicine (1), No Flashlight
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 4000

This is a fairly straightforward mission, very similar to the Mission 1.  You
are in a smaller space, though, and that makes it more difficult.  Both ghosts
like to rush at you, but this makes it easier to get a Zero Shot in against
them.  If you get a Zero Shot, you will most likely score the 1000+ points
needed to meet the mission requirements.  Once you have this shot, don't waste
any more time!  Keep shooting the ghosts whenever you can so they will be
stunned and you'll have a better chance of survival.  Remember that you have
one dose of Herbal Medicine to use if you get grabbed!

MISSION 15
**********
SPIRITS: Chitose Tachibana [Crimson Kimono], Akane & Azami Kiryu [Twin's Spirit]
TO CLEAR: Get a total of 5000 points or more
RANK: Total points
LOCATION: Tachibana, 1F Regular Tatami Room
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (30), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 4000

This is a tough battle because of the combination of 3 tricky ghosts and the
confining space.  You will want to try to take out Chitose first because of her
blinding attack; if she hits you with it you are sure to be grabbed by one of
the girls.  But mostly you will want to take shots quickly and whenever
possible so you can accumulate Spirit Power and use your Blast Lens or Zero
Lens to get a nice score.  Another good strategy is to use the Slow Lens or
Stun Lens to make the girls easier to manage.  If you can survive the battle
you should easily have accumulated enough points to meet the mission
requirements.

MISSION 16
**********
SPIRITS: People in Dark (3) [Man in Dark (2), Woman in Dark (1)]
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 1000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 1F Grounds
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (1)
HEALTH: 10%
AWARD: 5000

This is a very tricky mission.  You have to kill 3 ghosts, but you only have
ONE frame of film!  Furthermore, you only have a sliver of health!  How can you
do this?  When you start the battle, the three ghosts will be standing in
various places around the grounds, but they will be too far away from you to
see you.  To win the battle, you must run by the ghosts so that they start
chasing you, but don't get too close because one touch is enough to kill.  When
the ghosts begin slowly shambling after you, run around them in a big circle to
herd them into the center of the area.  Then get a good distance away and take
aim.  Use the R2 button to ZOOM OUT (remember the Zoom Function that you
unlocked when you beat the game??).  You should be able to get all 3 ghosts in
your Capture Circle as they file toward you.  If they spread out, then start
running around again to get them grouped together.  When you have them all in
your sights, wait for the Zero Shot.  Bam!  Triple kill!  And that's how you do
it!  You'll have scored over 1000 points quite easily.

MISSION 17
**********
SPIRITS: ???? [Limbo Man (2), Limbo Woman (2)]
TO CLEAR: Get a total of 8000 points or more
RANK: Total points
LOCATION: All God's Village, Kureha Shrine
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (30), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 4000

When you start the battle, all four ghosts will appear behind you.  Run forward
before turning around to start taking your shots.  Charge up your Spirit Power
with Zero Shots, then use the Zero Lens to score some big points.  The battle
isn't too hard, since these ghosts are aggressive and give you lots of
opportunities to get Zero Shots.  If you use the Zero Lens, though, you will
easily get the score needed to complete the mission.

MISSION 18
**********
SPIRITS: ???? [Broken Neck Woman, Fallen Woman, Woman in Box, Sunken Woman]
TO CLEAR: Capture all spirits within 4 minutes
RANK: Clear time
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 1F Great Hall
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (30), Type-Zero Film (3), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 5000

In this mission, you must fight all four ghosts at once!  This is a tough
combination to battle against.  When you begin, Woman in Box will be right in
front of you, and you can quickly take her out with the Type-Zero Film to make
things easier.  Your next target should be the aggressive Broken Neck Woman. 
Switch to the Type-14 Film after you have used up the Type-Zero Film; don't
wait for Zero Shots and keep taking pictures as quickly as you can.  There is
no substitute here for good camera skills.  Good use of your Slow and Stun
Lenses will help keep you from being ganged up on.  Four minutes is plenty of
time to defeat this quartet of ladies...if you can survive.

MISSION 19
**********
SPIRITS: Man in Dark (1), Woman in Dark (2)
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 3000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 2F Flickering Room
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (50), No Flashlight
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 5000

This is a hard fight because of the poor lighting conditions and small space. 
Fortunately, you have a large supply of film.  You will have to rely on the
Lock Circle to help you aim your shots, because most of the time all you will
be able to see through the camera is an amorphous, inky blackness.  To get over
3000 points, use the Zero Lens during a Zero Shot to inflict big damage.  When
the ghosts start closing in on you, take a shot and run to the other side of
the room while the ghosts are stunned.  It is hard to see in this room, which
makes maneuvering difficult, but these slow ghosts shouldn't give you too much
trouble.

MISSION 20
**********
SPIRITS: ???? [Broken Neck Woman (3)]
TO CLEAR: Take a photo worth 2000 points or more
RANK: Best shot
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 1F Connecting Corridor
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (30), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 4000

This is another Mission in which you must defend Mayu from the ghosts.  You
will appear on one side of the Corridor, while Mayu stands helpless on the
other side.  The three Broken Neck Women will appear one after another, which
makes fighting them much easier.  You can get a big score if you wait for them
to attack your sister; cruel though it may be, this will enable you to get a
Fatal Frame shot.  If you can combine this moment with your Zero Lens, your
score will be huge.  This mission is fairly easy.

MISSION 21
**********
SPIRITS: Children Playing Tag (4) [Girl Playing Tag (1), Boy Playing Tag (3)]
TO CLEAR: Capture all spirits within 4 minutes
RANK: Clear time
LOCATION: Kurosawa, 1F Great Hall
EQUIPMENT: Type-14 Film (50), Type-Zero Film (3), Herbal Medicine (1)
HEALTH: 100%
AWARD: 8000

This is a very difficult mission.  Unlike your prior battle with these children
in which they timidly hid from you, in this battle the children will
immediately begin swarming all over you, and their assault is relentless.  You
will want to immediately switch to Type-Zero film as soon as the battle starts.
 This film will kill the ghosts in one shot.  You can try to quickly take a
shot right at the start of the battle as the children close in on you and
hopefully eliminate one or two of them.  If this doesn't work, run!  Avoid the
walls so that you don't get surprised by a child leaping through them.  Keep
running until you have a good lead on one of the ghosts, then quickly turn and
take your shot as fast as you can.  You will probably get mobbed by the ghosts
a few times in this battle, but if you can eliminate just one of the ghosts
early on it will make things a little easier; getting your first kill is the
hardest part.  Fortunately, these children have low HP...but this is your only
advantage in this difficult battle.
