How do you open the ascetics door on final fantasy 12 on ps2?
First, you must defeat the Vyraal mark. From this you will receive a Dragon Scale. Go to the Cerobi Steppe and examine windmill no. 10. A Wyrm Philosopher will appear, talk to him and he’ll give you an Age-Worn Key in return for the Dragon Scale. Now go back to where the door is in the Sochen Cave Palace. Look at the map and you see you’re in or next to a diamond shape made of corridors, in the middle of which is a + shape of paths. You need to go to the eastern room of the diamond shape (go through the + to get there, do not open any doors marked Door of Hours). From here go clock-wise around the diamond shape, opening all the Doors of Hours (there are 8 in total). Do this correctly and you’ll hear a chime. You can now use the key on the Ascetic’s Door. And unless you’re quite powerful I’d save before going in.
