[@Silver Fox] Yeah, FF9 was super dependent of the gear.
Disc one is only 6 hours long, and there are not too many battles. But when you start disc two. (Which was Twice as long if I recall?) 
You could learn before Treno if you buy the right gear. Even if you didn't learn- you're stacked with PD's. 
Really that is all the machine does is a Phoenix down. It isn't like "I have half heath."

My memory is foggy, I'm currently playing it again when I'm bored on my Vita and just hanging around. 6 hours, deefinetly not close to that. But that's because I grind forever. 

Well a raise is still a raise xD 

Though I don't think all raises go to half health. Don't remember. I just know I heal pretty fast if I need it. Which is rare now a days.

[@Aerandir] Yay! We've now caught up to all the collar had to offer xD *waits for posts*
