Hints and tip for Final Fantasy VIII

If you want all your GFs to learn abilities a lot quicker, head to cactuar island.

This can be found off the south-east coast of the esthar continent.

If you equip all of your GFs to your main party, they will learn abilities a lot quicker with every battle you get in, because the only enemies are cactuars.

Cactuars are very weak enemies and 20AP is given for each cactuar killed.

If your characters are at a high enough level, you can try and challenge the Jumbo Cactuar, just look for the green lump that pops up out of the ground on the island.

This has got quite a lot of HP and some fairly strong attacks, but i killed it easily with squalls lionheart attack and irvines shot limit break,using A.P. ammo.

When you kill it you can use cactuar as a GF. You can also find the island easily simply by looking for the green lump that keeps popping up, but you can only use the ragnarok to get on the island.
