Queen of Cards: HELP! She won't stop going to Esthar!
I just got the mobile Balamb Garden, and I'm trying to mop up the rare cards. I've been chasing the Queen from Balamb to Galbadia, and now she's in FH.

No matter how many times (30+), she keeps heading to Esthar, which I don't have access to yet. How do I get her to go somewhere else? She's only supposed to have a 62.5% chance of heading there, so how have I gotten 30 in a row? Can I manipulate the RNG? I only even wanted her to go to Dollet so I can get rid of the Random rule.

Look yup Hyne, the save game editor or cheat engine table to get the game to do what you would like to in some cases such as where the Queen of Cards is.

You have to be patient, very patient, with her in F.H. It doesn't matter how many times you fight with her, keep trying. You've taken the long path, but it's possible to do :cactuar:

I know this is an old thread but I ran into this problem and figured out how to solve it, at least for me. Did it 4 times in a row and got the same result each time. Sadly this is also how I learned there's no soft reset in the remaster.

I read the old RNG manipulation guide and messed around to find this method. Was surprisingly easy.

1. Save in FH next to the Queen.
2. Hard reset. As there's no soft reset, just quitting to title screen is enough.
3. Load the FH save and check the draw point (Regen) near Queen once. I believe it doesn't matter at all, but I didn't actually draw, just checked it.
4. Challenge Queen and say yes. I couldn't mix rules so hopefully you can't either.
5. Lose a rare card (i.e. Minimog) or win a previous lost rare card back from her.

She should say she's moving to Dollet afterwards.
Ain't RNG dickery great? Now only if I could figure out how to RNG my way into rare monster drops.
