Acquiring
Draw from the Ultima Weapon in the Underwater Reactor.
To acquire Eden, obtain Bahamut at Battleship Island, return to the Ragnarok and talk to your group. A save point will be available outside along with a large climbable tree. Take it down to the underwater facility.
Upon entering will be a save point and a draw point containing Dispel. To the left will be a large computer console. Your party will store 20 data "blocks" for moving throughout the facility. Use 4 to open the door to the next room.
There are two ways to move throughout the facility based on your party members:
(with Zell in party)
Go down and check the computers close to the stairs. Use 2 blocks each on the first two computers and 1 block each on the two afterward. You'll approach a much larger machine giving you a choice to use 4 blocks or have Zell repair it. Choose Zell to repair it to save your remaining blocks. You should have 10 left. Enter the left door that opens.
(without Zell in party)
Check the computer close to the stairs and use 2 blocks. The door will open, revealing another computer. Ignore it. Head to the computer on the left and use 4 blocks. The door with the signal 'O' will open. The glowing computer will add 7 blocks. Go back to the computer you previously ignored and choose the first option. Repeat it until you come to a large machine. Use 4 blocks on it to open the next area.
Through each area as you approach your destination you will encounter the same monsters. However, if you have 'No Encounter' equipped, you will fight every 8 steps. With 'Half Encounter' equipped, you will have to fight every 4 steps. If you have neither equipped, you must battle every 2 steps.
Equip someone with the Move-Find ability to reveal a hidden save point. Save prior to using the machine nearby. Make sure to Junction your party appropriately for an extremely tough battle against Ultima Weapon.
