Why create this FAQ?
Why bother to create a mini-FAQ? Well, I have been recieving mails
about people saying that they have managed only download a portion of
the FAQ.. I can't really sent 500 KB over my mailbox for everyone.
That's why, I have decided to create a sub-FAQ. This will be the first
sub-FAQ. The detailed list of monsters really takes time, if you want
to use any part of the information, please give me credits. BTW, don't
read the spoilers section unless you have gotten the Ragnarok section.
Section 1.1 is a compulsory section as it gives information about the
abbreviations used in this FAQ.
Note for those whom want to contact me:
Write in with "Final Fantasy VIII" or "FF8" as your subject.
Write clearly what your problem/contribution are.
If it is regarding combat, tell me the GFs that you have found.
* I will not sent my FAQs to anyone who request through e-mail. It's
too tiring for me. (as my FF8 FAQs are a bit too huge)
NOTICE...
- Added some of "lost" strategies
- Added some of the Devour status for most monsters. [the remaining is
up to you guys to fill up. ^_^;]

========================================================================
A brief introduction about monsters...
========================================================================
As in almost all RPGs (it stands for Role Playing Games for those whom
still do not know...), there is always good guys and the bad guys. I
have been serving the web and found that most sites tends to focus on
the characters more that the monsters. [of course, there are some
exceptions.] Monsters played a vital role in RPGs as they contribute
the fun for your battles. Here is basic facts about monsters in FF8.
- The monsters don't just disappear, in fact there are some "dying"
sequences... [e.g. Defeat the T-Rexaur does not causes it to
disappear instantly [except for ST-Atk-J with 100x Death], it will
groan and fall onto the ground [negative response: Yummy, we will be
having Dino meat for dinner.. :)]
- The monsters does not allow you to get fixed EXP. This is one big
problem, I have yet to solve. The monster does not give fixed EXP.
In fact, you can gain 1,000+ EXP from a monster that nabs you only
about 600 EXP (want to know how? read on..). The longer the battle,
the higher EXP you will received. The higher the Level of the
monster, the more EXP you will received. The last person to kill
a monster will normally gets the most EXP. However the AP, you could
gain from a monster is fixed. (well how about the most AP?, read
on..). Monsters at different levels nabs you different items. So take
note. AP allows GFs to learn new abilities such as Str +20%.
- Monsters do level up in FF8.. They will gain additional moves, like
for example the T-Rexaur will have a special attack that grab your
character and swing the character into the air. [which only appears
when the T-Rexaur is Level 100).
- There is no Morph Command. Well, you can't get additional items by
morphing monsters as there is no Morph Command in FF8. Instead they
have replaced with Rare Item Ability. There is no more Steal command
too, which has instantly replaced with the Mug Command.
- Random Draw List. Well, the Draw Command allows you to draw magic
from the monsters and stock it for your own usage (which means no more
MP!). The draw list is random... for example:
Bite Bug
Level 1 ~ 15 Draw: Fire, Scan
Level 16 ~ 35 Draw: Fira, Scan
Level 36 ~ 100 Draw: Firaga, Scan
Ruby Dragon
Level 1 ~ 15 Draw: Fire, Aero
Level 16 ~ 35 Draw: Fira, Aero
Level 36 ~ 100 Draw: Firaga, Tornado, Flare, Meteor
- Cash (Gil) Problem. A lot of e-mails I have received asked me how to
get gil as they can't get gil by defeating monsters. Yeah, that's
true! You can only get gil by walking through your SeeD Level. That's
the way that SeeDs get their salaries. Need to take tests [*sigh*,
school is already killing me, yet still need to take SeeD test..].
There is an alternate way but you must have some cash inside your
inventory before you can do so.
- Some monsters return from the previous FF Series. For example, Bomb
has return from FF Tactics and Tonberry has return from FF VII. Well,
as for characters, there seems to be no methods have been proven
correct. Besides the methods that I have found, are a bit too
impossible.
- Don't expect monster's HP to be so restrained... Yeah it is true. For
example the Ruby Dragon has massive amount of HP (89,100 HP!) at a
level 100! Well now you can expect of the BOSSES in the later game.
FF8's Difficulty arises from here..
- There are three basic status of fighting and here they are:
1 Chance for first strike! - All your character's ATB will be at its
maximum.
2 Struck First! - All monsters will have their command first.
3 Back Attacked! - 1) Your characters will have their backs facing the
monsters.. Monsters will have their command first.
Equip GF Cerberus' Alert to prevent this.
2) Your characters will be facing the monsters' back,
well don't be fooled by the Imp ^_^; Initative
fall into your character's hands.
- Most monsters have cards except for certain monsters such as GIM-52A
(purple robots found D-District Prison), Raldo (remember those stone
like monsters that you face at the training center where you encounter
Ellone for the 2nd time?) and others. There are only a few to emulate
anyway ^_^;
- The bird's nest story from FF VII is back.. During Obel Lake's Quest,
you need to look for the stones right? There is one stone that is
found inside the nest which leads to an instant battle against the
Thrustaevis. For FF VII, you will face a giant ostrich at Corel Mt.
which is the mother of the chicks and get you 10x Phoenix Downs. I
have finally solved the Obel Lake and I will reveal in Part II and
also the walkthrough
- Not all precious items can be gotten from monsters. For example, to
get Glow Curtain, you can't get it by defeating monsters. Instead,
you can get this by converting 100x Malboro's Tentacle into through
Eden's GF Abl Med-RF. But you wonder how I get 100x Malboro
Tentacle? Malboro are so tough.. therefore this FAQ comes handy.
This is another reason why I make this FAQ.
- Conditions for Game Over (these words may seem....)
- All character's HP drop to 0.
- All characters are under Petrify status.
- When a monster is being pertified, you will recieved 0 EXP but still
recieves its AP. The most EXP you can get, are from the monsters found
in the Island closest to Hell/Heaven. The least EXP are from the
Cactaurs and Level 1 monsters (through Lv Down).
- You can get a ripped part of the EXP gained if you wounded the monster
in the battle from running away [hold R2 and L2]. You can also get some
items if the battle consist of more than one enemy and you have
defeated the monster. Example: Vysage usually appears with Lefty and
Righty. If you defeat Vysage and run away, you will get the items [
Lightweights or Wizard Stones].
- There are draw points on the World of FF8 and it is your interest to
get them all. Most of the quests such as the Obel Lake Mystery and
Elabeak Peninsula Mystery can only be done on the World Map. I would
also like to express my thanks to those whom have helped me in solving
the mystery.
- More battle combats.. You can get to do all sorts of new commands such
as Revive [which is equalvent to Full-life], Recover [which is
equalvent to Full-cure], Devour [instant death attack against one foe
and may gain bonuses/damage] and much more. So it will be your
interest to test them out...
- List of Status Ailments in Battles
I think it will be necessary to mentioned them..
Sleep A "ZZZ" appears on the character, ATB stops moving.
Doom A red counter of 24 seconds [basketball?], when it drops to
zero, the character will be instantly killed.
Petrify A white counter of 20 seconds, when it drops to zero, the
character will be petrified [turned into stone..] and will
be unusable if not cured.
Confuse The character will be turning around in circles.. ATB still
moves as normal, but auto-attack commands will be selected.
May does damage to oneself, enemy and even allies.
Silence A speech bubble with "....". Character is unable to use
Magic, GF and Draw Command. GF-type Commands (Recover,
Treatment, Revive, etc) will still be usable.
Darkness A black cloud surrounds the head of a character. Hit rate
reduce by half.
Zombie The colour of the character turns dull green except for the
weapons. Becomes undead [recieved damage from healing
elements.]
Berserk Character becomes red hot. ATB moves normally but as it
reaches the character's turn, the character does an auto-
attack to one.
Poison A green cloud appears. ATB moves normally but as you
excute a command, the HP drops by a small portion.
To counter these, I guess you should all know by now.. if not, feel
free to contact me.
- In the previous FF series, FF7 and FFT, there are not much emphasis on
the Elemental Arts. In fact, now they have possess a greater
importance as it allows your character to boost to its optimum
attacking power. In my own opinion, I think that Elem-Atk-J can be
very damaging if you know how to use it. Like I managed to does 9999
HP to the Jumbo Cactaur each time.. Refer to the strategies for more
details.
- One more thing to clear.. You will not necessary get Level 2 Magic
such as Fira, Blizzara, Thundara, etc. If you are just a border line
levels such as 20+. The best level to get the Magic is to attain at
least 25 for Level 2 Magic. [as you see, the draw list differs as it
based on the monster's level.] As Level 3 Magic, Level 40 would be
recommended even though you could get the strongest magic at Level 35.
- If you spot your time counter turning red, don't worry as this shows
that you have accumulated over 100 hours of gameplay.

Frequently asked questions [related to battle combat.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summoning Woes...
Why does the Odin does not appeared?
The rate that the Odin appears are random, which means it will begin at
the start of the battle. I guess the higher is your luck, the more
appearance that Odin will made. When you get Gilgamesh, this guy can
appear even in between battles... But pray that he will not use his
Excuilpur ^_^; I myself believe that Death Spirit increases
compability with GF Odin.
Is there a way to make the Phoenix appear without using the Phoenix
Pinion?
No.. Sadly to say, this great GF from FF7 [for those whom have played
FF7 before, Phoenix is really your saviour from those Weapons.] can only
be summoned using Phoenix Pinions. To get Phoenix Pinions, refer to the
strategies sections below. Phoenix Pinions can be used through the item
command. It's possible when all characters are dead and at least one
character has the Item command, along with at least 1x Phoenix Pinion,
the Phoenix will be summoned automatically.
When do I know when tap Square during Boost?
Practically, you need intution... You must feel when it is needed... As
you see the Square tap for long period, the cross will eventually appear
and that's the time to stop. It is a skill that can't be teached. You
need to try it out yourself.
Why sometimes the summon period for a certain GF is so slow and the
others are so fast?
This is due to the compatibility rating. The higher the compitability,
the faster the GF will be summoned. Note that you can build up the
compatibiliy by using GF compatibility items. [refer to Part II]. The
best compatibility item is the LuvLuv G which can obtained throughout
your journey or through Card Mod-RF.. Oops forget the card ^_^; Refer to
Part II.
Limit Break Woes..
How do I use Limit Breaks?
Typically for all characters [including Laguna, Edea, Ward, Kiros and
Seifer], you need to get to critical status. Critical status means the
character has low HP. Let's say Squall as an example...
Situation 1-------------------------------------------------------------
In this situation, it is impossible to use Limit Breaks, unless.....
Squall's HP: 9999 / 9999 --> no Limit Break
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Situation 2-------------------------------------------------------------
For this situation, there is a slight probability that you will not
excute a Limit Break. Just tap Circle and you will see a golden blinking
triangle on the right of the Attack/Mug Command. Next push Right and you
will see the name of the character's Limit Break!
Squall's HP: 880 / 9999 --> Limit Break! [880 is less than 10% of his
maximum HP.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Situation 3-------------------------------------------------------------
No matter what HP you have, using Aura spell or Aura Stone [Aura spells
can drawn from draw points found at the Island closest to Hell/Heaven,
whereas Aura Stones can be gotten through Card Mod-RF or your battles
against the Propagator at Ragnarok.] The character will be shinning
yellow and you will be able use Limit Break easily.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
How do I get Squall's new Limit Breaks?
Basically, you need to tune your weapons and he will get new Limit
Breaks. To tune weapons, refer to Part II. You will see the word,
"Renzoukuken" replacing the "Attack/Mug". To inflcit more damage, tap
R1 when you see the light shine within the box. Refer to Part II. As
for Lion Heart for every time excution, it's impossible. [well, what
are the Limit Breaks used for.] I guess Squall will only excute Lion
Heart when his HP is low as 5% of his max HP and other members are low
in HP. I guess it depends on Luck.
How do I get Zell's new Limit Breaks?
Get Combat King magazines. These magazines allow you to have new Limit
Break [or sub-Limit Breaks.]. Zell's combat can be chained unlike other
characters. Refer to Part II. For those whom want to save trouble, you
can have Auto Duel. You see the word "Duel" replacing the "Attack/Mug"
How do I get Quistis' new Limit Breaks?
This is the toughest among all characters... you need to find items
called Blue Magic Items and these items allows Quistis to learn new
Limit Breaks. It works practically like the Enemy Skill Materia in FF7,
but you get it by using items dropped or mug from enemies. Refer to
Part II for more information. You will see the word "Blue Magic"
replacing the "Attack/Mug" command.
How do I get Selphie's new Limit Breaks?
Getting hers is a bit unique. You can acquired during battles. While she
is critical status, you will be able to select spells. Out 1 of 10
chances, you make get rare spells such Full-cure, Rapture, Wall and The
End [for The End, it seems to me about 1 out of 20 chances or worse..]
There is a trick in getting her Limit Break. Just follow the steps:
1) First of all get Selphie to critical status
2) Tap Circle to change turns, have the next member use a magic and
meantime return Selphie and have her excute her Limit Break.
3) Before the other member cast the spell, open the Playstation lid
immediately!
4) The character whom is casting the spell looks freezed.. in her/his
casting pose. Now happy select your spells!
5) After finished selecting your desired spells, choose to cast.
6) Close the Playstation Lid and the freezed member will start to
cast the spell! And it is followed by Selphie casting her Limit
Break!
How do I get Irvine's new Limit Breaks?
I believed that you must get the corresponding shotgun for the
corresponding Ammo. Which means, not only you need to get Ammo, you
must tune up his Shotgun. I am not so sure about this.. need some
testing. To get new Ammo, make full use of Ifrit's Ammo-RF.
How do I get Rinoa's new Limit Breaks?
This works the same as Zell, but you must get Pet Pals magazines
instead. Just simply open the magazine and switched to the Status
Screen, press Square and it will brought up the Limit Break Manuals.
There you will find the bars next to the Limit Breaks. Just simply
select the bar that you wished to filled. Next get back to the field
[cities or the World Map] and walk around [use Diablo's Enc-None,
note this may decrease your SeeD ranking..]. The bar will start to fill
up. Rinoa has a high tendency in using Angelo Cannon or Angelo Strike
instead the Wishing Star.. I think that, the more danger Rinoa is in,
the higher the rate that she will execute the Wishing Star. I am not
sure whether it works if you drive on a car or a Chocobo that the bar
will fill up or not.. Anyway, Rinoa must be in your party. As she was
being repeatedly hit, Angelo will appear using Angelo Rush or
something else. She can get the new skill called Angel Wings while at
Ragnarok in Disc 3. Angel Wings prevent you to use her as the computer
picks the spells [even it's not found in her inventory, same applies
to Selphie.]. Angel Wings cast all attacking magic except for support
and recovery magic [except for Dispel].
How do I get Limit Breaks for other characters?
Typically, they don't have as you see only a small box appears at the
left hand corner of the screen. As for Seifer, if you could recruit him,
he could used other Limit Breaks such as Demon Slice and Bloodfest...
Well, if anyone on Earth knows how to use him after the Dollet Mission,
it will be nice if you could share with everyone in the world.
Combat Woes..
In my case, Squall can only does a merely 200 HP damage with his Flame
Saber, and his strength stats are only 40+, is there a way to improve
it?
Yes! Through Junctioning. Listen up everyone, the key difference from
FF8 along with other RPGs is this system. In FF7, you can get higher
attacking power, by getting better weapons or accessories. But in FF8,
the Junction System has replaces all these... Well, the weapons can only
give a merely +10 Str points at most. To get boost up Str, you need to
get a Junction Ability called Str-J, this ability allows you to junction
magic to boost up the character, also customize them. The Junctions
works according to its corresponding abilities. Like to boost up HP,
you need to get HP-J
Can I rearrange my characters? I don't want Squall to stand in the
middle...
This is just a small section that I have missed since the first time
playing.. You can rearrange your members! That's right. Just simply
press X on the character's name and move the cursor to another
character and you can perform a simple exchange.
How to equip commands?
This is one of the section that getting on my nerves. Just read the
Basic Tutorial section at Part I [NA]!
How do I steal from a monster?
Use Mug Command [200 AP learnt from Diablos or Bahamut], remember that
you must equip it under the abilities. Refer to Basic Tutorial of Part
I.

List of Abbreviations
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay.. let's get to work.. I will first start off to tell everyone that
be expected of a lot of abbreviations [it will be very tedious to type
out every word..]. Here is the legend:
Legend
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key Defination
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name - Name of monster
LV - Level of a monster from its minimum level to maximum level
HP - monsters' minimum HP to maximum HP
Taste - the effect by using Devour command to that monster [Eden]
Refreshing/Delicious/All systems go!/Increased morale -
Gained HP, Bonus, fix status ailments.
Awful/Barf-Bwahh... - lost HP + abnormal status according
to the monster
No Taste - typically applies to all mechanical beasts.
AP - AP point gained to that monster [this is very important..]
Steal - Item you will steal from that monster by using Mug command
ability
Drop (') - Item that you will find after battle
Rare Item - Item that you can find when equiped with Rare Item.
Attack (^) - list of monster's attack
Draw (*) - magic you can draw/gained to that monster by using Draw.
Descri. - description, what monster look like or similar to
Where - the locations of the monsters.
Card - using the card command.
NOTE - my battle strategies ^_^;
Info - the list of words that I noted while scanning...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
^ Notes on the attack list
Monster also get new attacks when they level up same as your characters.
One major difference from FF8 between other RPGs, is that the monster
too also get Level Ups and have more HP at a higher level. Usually the
key factor that causes this will be Squall's Level. To fix this, uses
Tonberry's LV Down. At lower levels, you will see the monster using that
tactic. Attacks are being enclosed in the brackets are names that I
think of it myself. [quite creative, huh?]. The monster also uses
spells, just BOSSES, some of them even use Blue Magic Items...
' Notes on Item Drop
You can get better items by equiped the Party Ability, Rare Item which
can be obtained from GF Bahamut. Most of the time, you will get GF
items than Junk Items with this ability equiped. So make full use of
this. You can less better items, if you perform LV Down or LV Up.
Below is a slight scenario..
Bite Bug
Level 1 ~ 10 M-Stone Piece [draw list: Fire, Scan]
Level 11 ~ 25 Magic Stone [draw list: Fira, Scan]
Level 26 ~ 100 Wizard Stone [draw list: Firaga, Scan]
NOTE: Rare Item does not mean that you will get the item always.
Without Rare Item, you can also get rare items. The Rare Item only
helps to increase the success rate. Piss.. really have a hard time to
get the Devour status..
One more thing about this.. You can only get items from a monster if
you did not use the Mug Command. So it is like a double-edged sword..
* Notes about the Draw List
Here is the explaination. As you see, whenever monsters level up, you
will get new spells such as Firaga, Tornado, Curaga, etc. This spells
can be obtained from strong foes. For those whom want to take a short

Upon your jounery to Lunar Base, Rinoa (possessed by the future witch
Ultimecia) has freed the Adel (whom is sealed inside the ice chamber..),
which causes the Lunar Cry which struck several years ago to occur once
again. From the "Realm of Evil", the Lunatic Pandora (which has settled
at the Tears Point), absorbs the energy of evil, thus causing the
following areas become infested with more powerful, devil-looking
monsters. The Lunar Cry has occured once and it forms the Centra Crater
where you find the Centra Ruins.

wants Squall's ring (with Griver engraved in it.)] Galbadia Garden is
also full of monsters too.. the Sorceress generally wants to prolonged

Yeah.. the Ultima Weapon is back from FF7.. This Weapon is far one of
the strongest in FF8. This weapon has a couple of damaging attacks. It's
Light Pillar is indeed a killer (well, Irvine at Level 100 is more a
killer ^_^;). After getting GF Bahamut at the Deep Sea Research Center,
you will see a hole down the path.. this leads to the basement where
Squall can gain access to the Deep Sea Deposit. You need make use of the
Reserve Steam Pressure to reduce the crystal that is encovering the
Ultima Weapon. Just have Zell, in the party. Head down to the hole.
Examine the steam machine located on the left and you will have a short
briefing about the scenario. Just do in 2-2-1-1 RSP usage and have Zell
to handle the last steam machine (refer to Part II for more details).
Upon that you will be able to access to the Deep Sea Deposit and a whole
hell of them are awaiting for you...

Defeating Malboros
by Qiao2324
Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Malboros can be defeated! Just meet the following requirements
- Berserk, Confuse, Sleep and Death (Pain will be quite good...)
- 3x Initiative (c) [Pandemona, Tonberry, Cactaur]
- Spd +40% [Pandemona, Cerberus]
- Spd J [Cerberus, Pandemona]
- Auto Haste [Cerberus]
- Aura [gotten from the Draw Points at the borders of Island closest
to Hell/Heaven or the shoreline at the tip of Long Horn Island.]
- Squall's Lionheart or Quistis' Degenarator]
- Meltdown [needed if using Lionheart, draw from Gayla]
- Treatment or Esuna [drawn from Mesmerize]
- Str-J [if have Lionheart, junction to Squall's Str until 255]
<> With Lion Heart
Have all status ailment magic junctioned to ST-Def-J to that
character and give that character the Treatment command. First of
all, have the first character to cast Meltdown to weaken the
Malboro. Next after the Malboro have used the Bad Breath, have
that character use the Treatment to cure others and have the
members casting Aura on Squall. There will be a high probability
that Squall will use Lion Heart on the Malboro....
Note: Malboro will not use Bad Breath if a character is still
under the status ailments.
<> With Degenarator
As you go into the battle, cast Aura on Quistis and have she
cast Degenarator [first item on the 2nd Specials page.] This
strategy works well against tough cookies such as the Ruby
Dragon.
<> As a Party (NEW!, added by Scott Ong)
Pretty amazed by this strategy.. You can get 2x Elem-Def-J x4
One from Alexander and the other one from Doomtrain. Just
junction 100x Sleep, Confuse, Pain, Berserk to the character and
give the character the Treatment command. Once the Malboro has
used its Bad Breath, have that character cast Treatment on the
remainding characters. Draw Demi from the Malboro and use on it.
It will does 9999 HP damage each time.. Attack!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Status Elemental Strategy
by Markweb Jimenez ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Junctioned 100x Zombie to the 1st character's ST-Atk-J.
- Junctioned 100x Pain to the 2nd character's ST-Atk-J
- Junctioned 100x Death to the 3rd character's ST-Atk-J
Commands ASCII Diagram
__________ __________ __________
|Commands | |Commands | |Commands |
|Attack | 1st |Attack | 2nd |Attack | 3rd
|Magic | |GF | |Magic |
|Recover | |Draw | |GF |
|Draw | |Item | |Revive |
|__________| |__________| |__________|
Start off with the 1st character attacking the monster [make sure
that it is not undead]. Have the second character used a Phoenix
Down, if it misses have the third character used the Revive Command.
And the monster will be instantly killed! (if you do not have
Revive, just used Life Magic) If the monster is instantly undead,
used a Phoenix Down for an easy kill. Death works well against most
monsters such as Behemoths.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fighting against Undead
by Markweb Jimenez ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't bother to attack, just use a Phoenix Down or cast Life on the
monster. [Life can be drawn from Mesmerize] Note that you can make
undead with Zombie, refer to the strategy above for more details.
Zombie does not work on plants-type monsters such as Ochu and of course
the undead.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fighting against the monsters found at the Island closest to Hell
by Scott Ong ([email protected]).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In summary, here is a brief list and their toughest rating. Please read
as it is kinda important for survival. Currently, I am still figuring
out a better objective in defeating the Ruby Dragon. So watch for the
next update. [well, it can't be possible using Degenerator everytime..
unless you are willing to keep Quistis at low HP..]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name Difficulty Rating
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ruby Dragon *****
Malboro ****1/2
Grendel ***
Hexdragon ***
T-Rexaur ***
Blue Dragon ***
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strategy:
Ruby Dragon - I think it is the most dangerous monster in FF8. It's
Breath [when it is at Level 100] does 9999 HP to any
character who has less than 100 Vit Stats. Currently, I
am still thinking a way to prevent that. I guess the best
way is to use Degenerator and summon GF Doomtrain.
Malboro - refer to the strategy above.
Grendel - Junction Death/Sleep/Blind to your characters' ST-Atk-J along
with Elem-Atk-J [Quake, Aero* or Blizzard*]. Well, just
attack. Blind junctioned ST-Atk-J is very important.
Hexdragon - Make sure you have high attacking power. Junction Firaga to
your character's Elem-Def-J to nullify its Breath Attack.
T-Rexaur - Make sure that you have accquired Blizzaga junctioned to
Elem-Atk-J. Blind junctioned to the ST-Atk-J is vital or you
will be its prey.
Blue Dragon - quite weak against status such as Blind, Death or Sleep.
Quite an easy foe, so no fear.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Defeating the T-Rexaur
by Rob Strokes ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The T-Rexaur is weak against Ice. Junction 100x Blizzaga to your
character's Elem-Atk-J and he/she can does as much as 4000 even with
the Str stats of 100+. This is due to the weak defense of the T-Rexaur.
Also junction 100x Blind to your character's ST-Atk-J so it is
defenceless or use Doom to have the monster met his "doom".
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sleep ST-Atk-J Strategy
by Markweb Jimenez ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all you must gotten spells such as Sleep, Haste, Slow
<> Sleep: Funguar
<> Slow: LV 20+ Caterchipillar
<> Haste: Iron Giant, Cactaur
Junction 100x Sleep to Squall's ST-Atk-J and make sure that he has high
Speed stats. Give him also Auto-Haste. Junction 100x Slow to another
character's ST-Atk-J. As for the last character, junction 100x Pain for
his/her ST-Atk-J. Give that character with Slow, the Initiative ability
first. Just keep on attacking with the third character summoning a GF
and have the character with Slow, does the attacking first and followed
Squall doing his job. In this way, you can conserve most of the HP of
your GFs for BOSS fights.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy defeat Iron Giant
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Very bothering with the Iron Giant attacking your characters with the
Grand Sword which can inflict a minimum damage of 1000+ to all
characters? Here is a method:
-> Junction 100x Sleep to every characters' ST-Atk-J!
-> Junction 100x Thundaga to every characters' Elem-Atk-J.
-> Equip GFs Diablos, Quezacotl, Lv100 Cactaur
Now as soon as your characters reaches his/her turn, attack the Iron
Giant and it will be instantly under the Sleep status. Once under the
Sleep status, summon Diablos and Quezacotl which should last about 2
summons for each GF (unless superb compatibility). Have one character
do stocking of Haste, if you don't have or have that character wait
until the Sleep status wear off. And start to attack again. In this way,
there is no chance for the Iron Giant to does damage on your characters.
It also works on monsters such as Behemoth. Blind also workes well.

Easy gaining EXP and AP through escaping
by Prasetia Gunawan
------------------------------------------------------------------------
You must have gotten Ragnarok and have GF Odin. Head for the Island
closest to Hell. The monsters give a handsome sum of EXP. Just simply
junction 1x Initiative for each character and run once you begin a
battle [press L2 and R2 to escape] If you are lucky, you will experience
Odin entering the battle. It is Zantesuken doing the job.. works quite
well for repeated battles.

The Demi HP-Calculator
by Markweb Jimenez ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
You may know the monster's current HP by looking at the damage done by
Demi spell. Example if the damage inflict is 3,600 and you know that
Demi does 1/4 of damage. Multiply by 3 and you will get 10,800 HP and
you don't have to trouble yourself in using the Scan spell.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meteor Destruction
by Sung Kato ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
An old strategy which I have forgotten to mention. Firstly you must have
acquired GF Eden and have Expendx3-1 [or use the Three Stars which can
be stolen from the Ultima Weapon, or the Card Refinement of Squall's
Card]. Stock Meteor from your fight against Ruby Dragon. Do here is the
fun. Junction 100x Sleep to every character's ST-Atk-J and cause them in
Sleep status and summon GF Cerberus. Once the Triple Status is on, cast
Meteor and you will be able to summon it thrice for the price of one
without the monster attacking.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The deadly of Doomtrain!
by r_rjonah
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Have Squall being equipped the Initiative command from Pandemona to get
the first turn in battle right. Make sure that Squall was junctioned the
GF Doomtrain. Make sure that Squall has a high compatibility with
Doomtrain is about 1000! Once the battle began, summon the Doomtrain!
BOOM!! almost all of the monsters have the SLOW, PETRIFY, SLEEP,
DARKNESS, DEATH, BERSERK, POISON, VIT 0 all in one turn!!! Once it has
happen just kill the monster IN ANY MANNER YOU WANT!!! But some
monster are immune to the above effects (one good example is the
Malboro) but many strong monsters are affected like the RUBY DRAGON,
IRON GIANT ,BEHEMOTH and almost any other monsters will be affected!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Murderer..
by r_rjonah
------------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all, have the following magic being junctioned to the
character's ST-Atk.
Squall --> 100x Death spells, will arise 100% for Sudden Death!
Zell --> 100x Zombie spells, will arise 100% for Zombie!
Irvine --> 100x Break spells, will arise 100% for Petrify!
Make sure that Squall is protect from Confuse (otherwise, you will be
dead meat in no time if the other characters does not have 100%
protection against Sudden Death. If the opponent is under Zombie
status, use Recover for a quick kill. Revive will be much better.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Stealer of HP
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pretty amazed when I first time discovered this. You can get HP too, by
using this superb combo. 100x Drain junctioned to ST-Atk-J. But it is
pretty weak and sometimes causes a huge damage.. Here is a brief
summary. Typically it seldom works on BOSSES, that's I did not
mentioned in the walkthrough!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monster's Element Elem-Atk-J Effect
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Absorbs Fire Fire* reduces HP
Absorbs Ice Blizzard* reduces HP
Absorbs Earth Quake reduces HP
Absorbs Wind Aero/Tornado reduces HP
Absorbs Poison Bio reduces HP
Absorbs Thunder Thunder* reduces HP
Fire no effect Fire* 0 HP
Ice no effect Blizzard* 0 HP
Earth no effect Quake 0 HP
Wind no effect Aero/Tornado 0 HP
Poison no effect Bio 0 HP
Thunder no effect Thunder* 0 HP
Holy no effect Holy 0 HP
*Weak against Fire Fire* / n/a increase HP
*Weak against Ice Blizzard* / n/a increase HP
*Weak against Thunder Thunder* / n/a increase HP
*Weak against Wind Aero/ Tornado / n/a increase HP
*Weak against Earth Quake / n/a increase HP
*Weak against Holy Holy / n/a increase HP
*Weak against Poison Poison/ n/a increase HP
Undead any element reduces HP.
Blue Dragon any element 0 HP.
Chimera any element except 1/2 of ATK.
Thunder/Poison/Water
Strong BOSSES any element 0 HP.
Weak BOSSES any element 1/2 of ATK
(e.g. Fujin and Raijin)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Any element will support the case, unless the monster can absorbs the
element damage. Example:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Snow Lion Absorption Success Elements
Weak against Fire Elem-Atk-J: Fire/Wind/Earth/Thunder/Holy/Poison
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notice that I did not include Ice element? Because the Snow Lion
nullifies Blizzard*. If you don't have any magic junctioned to
Elem-Atk-J, it will be still a success. Happy stealing..
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ruby Dragons? No Fear!
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ruby Dragons are extremely tough at high level as they could does an
astonishing 9999 HP damage to any characters with a Vitality less than
100. The Breath carries no element unlike the Japanese version. Just to
reduce the damage, you must get a couple of important magic. Protect is
generally a must as it reduces physical/non-elemental damage by half.
You must also get GF Cerberus or you need to have a lot of Triple. Make
use of Expendx3-1 as it saves Magic. You need magic such as Regen,
Firaga [junctioned to Elem-Def-J], Blizzarga or Holy to Elem-Atk-J,
Aura and GF Doomtrain [if you don't have 100x Sleep to ST-Atk-J and
100x Meltdown.] Ruby Dragons are strong against Darkness, Poison,
Petrify, Stop, Silence except for Slow, Vit 0 and Sleep. [if you have
100 quantity of that magic.] Drain to ST-Atk-J works well, but it is
not quite advisble. Instead prefer to use ST-Atk-J with Sleep
junctioned. Just cast Protect on all characters, after casting Triple
(summon GF Cerberus.). Attack the Ruby Dragon with the characters that
has Sleep to ST-Atk-J only and followed by summoning Doomtrain [or
Meltdown]. The Ruby Dragons will be greatly weaken and you can easily
killed it off by summoning GFs such as Bahamut and Eden. You can also
choose to eliminate the Ruby Dragon with Limit Breaks.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usefulness of Darkside
by Psyco Schizophrenic <[email protected]>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is one useful tip. Typically it only works on basic monsters such
as Ruby Dragons except for BOSS (exceptions: Fujin and Raijin). Just
simply has 100x Drain junctioned to ST-Atk-J. Equip Darkside command.
Now just use Darkside [which allows you to attack thrice as much and
also suffer a deflict of 1/10 of the current HP), you will be able to
drain the HP back while inflict as much as 3 times!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reduce EXP gain
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A helpful strategy for those whom want to train your characters. I
myself typically started training when he has accquired LV 20. [for him,
his Strength stats is really good. LV 100, he can already gotten 175+
and that's without any bonus!]
Just give him Str Bonus while he have accquired Str Bonus. There is
generally three methods to reduce EXP.. and gain a lot of AP:
1. Run! - don't quite like this method as your hands will generally got
sore if you do that every moment. You will still get a portion of
EXP if you have attack the opponent.
2. Fight Cactuars - yep.. They give low EXP and at the same high AP.
Seize the opportunity to master Str Bonus for Ifrit, Mag Bonus for
Siren, HP bonus for Brothers, Vitality Bonus for Carbuncle and Spirit
for Leviathan.
3. Use LV Down or LV Up. LV Down will reduce greatly the EXP gain. As
the lower levels, the more easier is the fight. The higher EXP, the
faster the character will level up.

The Well of Souls

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Phase: After Departing Timber/Before Laguna's
Dream Sequence #2
Location: Due West of Timber in brown area bordering
mountains, between ocean and train bridge
Monster: Vysage, Lefty, Righty
Requirements: Squall at Limit Break
All characters stocked with Silence and
Blind magic
Preferred Abilities: All characters with ST-ATK-J
Squall with Silence
2nd Character with Silence
3rd Character with Blind
Order of Attack: Squall, #2, #3
Target Priorities: Silence Vysage
Silence Lefty
Blind Righty
Blind Vysage
Blind Lefty
Strategy:
First Round
Squall casts/attacks Vysage with Silence
#2 casts/attacks Lefty with Silence
#3 casts/attacks Righty with Blind
2nd Round (assuming all 1st round attacks succeeded)
Squall casts/attacks Vysage with Blind
#2 casts/attacks Lefty with Blind
#3 waits for 3rd round OR
Subsequent Rounds
Draw and stock magic
When the Head begins to use Curse (usually at higher
levels and long after you have stocked all available
magic) use Squall's Limit Break in the first round
to KO the Head or Righty. The Curse cannot be
summoned unless all three are parts of the Vysage
are there. Silencing or blinding the Head does not
stop the Vysage from casting Curse.
Each successful battle yields 12 AP and special items.
The most prized of the special items are Life Rings
and Regen Rings. You can also get Lightweights.
Using Siren's L MAG-RF, you can convert the Life
Ring into Life magic and the Regen Ring into Full-Life
magic at this early stage of the game. Otherwise, you
have to wait until the Esthar phase to grab/win these
items or after the Lunar adventure to fly to the
Island Closest to Heaven/Island Closest to Hell to
get this magic from the hidden Draw Points.
100x Lightweights can be converted to 1x Accelerator
after gaining Eden's GFAbl Med-RF in order to have a
GF learn Auto-Haste.
This is also an excellent opportunity to level-up your
characters, level-up your GFs, and add GF abilities.
Coming back at intervals before Esthar will help you
get those costly GF abilities in a short amount of time.
Depending upon your character's levels, you can draw
magic now from the Head (Esuna, Haste, Bio), Lefty
(Bio, Demi, Quake, Regen, Blind, Drain, Slow), and Righty
(Shell, Protect) instead of having to bog down through
later sections drawing from other monsters.

Well of Dark Matter
by [email protected]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Phase: Deep Sea Deposit, Battle Area #1
Location: Battle Area #1
Monster: Tri-Face (occurs at three locations all the time)
Behind column before reaching Save Point
Top of 2nd small stairs
Top of stairs to next screen
Note: All monster locations can be reset by doing one of
the following:
Going to next screen and returning.
Going back to Save Point and switching party
members. Switching junctions is not required.
Remember to keep Quistis in the middle position.
Requirements:
. Quistis at Limit Break (Blue Magic - Degerator)
. Siren at Level 100 with Tool-RF Ability
. Move-Find Ability
Preferred Abilities:
All characters with ST-ATK-J and Blind magic junctioned
All characters with Initiative, Auto-Haste, and/or High
Speed Junction
Order of Attack: #1, Quistis, #3
Strategy:
#1 attacks Tri-Face with Blind
If Quistis's Limit Break activates, Quistis casts Blue
Magic - Degerator [auto-victory]
If Quistis's Limit Break does not activate, press "O" to
go to #3.
#3 attacks Tri-Face with Blind
Continue to press "O" until Quistis's Limit Break
activates, then cast Blue Magic - Degerator [auto-
victory]
Each successful battle yields 8 AP and special items (8x
Poison Powders, 8x Curse Spikes, or 3x Star Fragments).
The occurrence of Poison Powders/Curse Spikes is about 50/50,
with the Star Fragments being infrequent. Another Rare Item
is Tri-Face's Card.
Using Siren's TOOL-RF, you can convert 100x Curse Spikes
into 1x Dark Matter. The Dark Matter can be used to:
. Have Quistis learn Shockwave Pulsar
. Refine 100x Ultima Magic (Bahamut's Forbid Mag-RF)
. Refine 1x Luck-J Scroll (Eden's GFAbl Med-RF)
. Refine 1x Shaman Stone (Eden's Forbid Med-RF)
. Refine 1x SHaman Stone into
. 1x Rosetta Stone (Eden's Forbid Med-RF)
. 1x LuvLuv G (Siren's Tool-RF)
Using Siren's ST Med-RF, you can convert 1x Poison
Powder into 3x Antidotes. Using Call Shop, you can sell the
Antidotes for cash.
In fact, this is an another, excellent location to level-up characters,
GFs, and GF abilities. You simply run up and down and use the local
Save Point to assist in resetting the monster locations and switching
out characters that achieve level 100 with others that haven't.
Remember to equip any Bonus Abilities (HP, Mag, Hit) to specific
characters in order to get those additional levels in addition to
experience levels.
I was able to accumulate 7x Dark Matters before all my characters
achieved Experience Level 100. That provides enough Rosetta Stones to
have every character have Ability x4 after modification and distribution
of GFs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Power-Up with Bonuses
by [email protected]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
What you need to do is get through the game on the smallest level
possible, what I recommend is getting everyone to level 30 and stopping
there. You'll have to use enc-none or run to avoid getting exp. Then
once you get the 4 bonuses from jumbo cactuar give them all to one
character, kill the other members of your party and level him up till
level 100. Then revive another character and give the bonuses to
him/her and do that until everyone has gotten the bonuses and are at
level 100. This will add 70 to you base stats. Don't put on the hp
bonus though. I've played around with the different spells and I think
I've got a pretty good junction now. Junction the spells like this:
HP- Ultima
Str- Meteor
Vit- Meltdown
Mag- Flare(mag isn't that important),
Spr- Reflect
Spd- Triple
Eva- Tornado
Hit- Double
Luck- Aura.
Elem-Atk- None
Elem-Def- Shell, Life, Full-Life
ST-Atk- Pain,
ST-Def- Death, Holy, Esuna, Reflect (But if you're fighting Malboro
make it Confuse, Sleep, Beserk, and Silence)
Now that you have all magic junctioned up set your abilties. The two
must have abilties are Vit+%60 and Spr+%60. If you have those the
ruby dragons breath attack only does 400 damage(pretty good huh?) and
the last boss becomes a joke because the most damge she ever does
aside from Gravija is 300 or so. Str+60% is also important on two of
the characters but the other one should be a healer. What I have on my
characters is Squall: Vit+60, Spr+60, Str+60, Spd+40 Zell: Vit+60,
Spr+60, Str+60, Spd+40 Rinoa: Vit+60, Spr+60, Expend3x-1, Spd+40
If you followed my advice you'll have the most powerful characters
around. Enjoy never fearing any opponent(except the weapons which can
still kill you with ease)

Fast Levelling Up with Death Combo!
by [email protected]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a strategy for beating practically ANY enemy (the only ones
i've yet to see it work on are Malboros, Hexadragons, and Ruby Dragons,
and bosses of course.)! Simply junction 100x death to all of your
characters' attack. Watch the enemies drop!! It kills them in one hit,
although sometimes it won't work until 2nd or 3rd hit. It will inflict
no damage and the monster just fades away in a red transparency (kind
of like how bosses died in FF3.) GREAT for leveling up, I gained 40
levels in one day with it!! I'm not exactly sure but I think my rare
item chance has gone up significantly when using this strategy..
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Perpetual Squall's Limit Break.
by Fong Liu <[email protected]>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
To do this all you need is:
Aura OR Really low HP for Squall + Hero/Invincible Moon
The method is based on one simple realization: there is a chance for a
limit break whenever you press Circle [that's to change turns for your
characters] while in combat. Every time, you select Squall by pressing
the Circle button, you give him a chance to use his Limit Breaks.
So here is one possible way to utilize Squall's Perpetual limit break:
(Pre-combat) Make sure Squall has no elemental junctions on his weapon
1) Get Squall as fast as possible--haste, speed etc.
2) Aura Squall somehow. or get him at low HP
3) make the other 2 characters busy (summon a GF or something)
4) Keep pressing the Circle button really fast until you hear the
little ring that signals a limit break (you may have to
practice this so you don't miss the ring). Use the limit break
quick! Don't miss your triggers!
5) Repeat 4 until the other two characters are done with their
action. When they are done with their actions make them busy
again and keep repeating 4.
Squall does the most damage with his limit break if he's at 1 HP...
so against Omega Weapon, wait for a Terra Break before you use Hero on
him.
Otherwise, with this technique, EVERY BOSS is eliminated very easily...
INCLUDING Ultimecia. Omega is the only challenge.

Elynoles Extinction!
by Vox Necros <[email protected]>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This sure-fire strategy can be done by juntioniong 100x Zombies to
ST-Atk-J, which seems to have a 95% chance of zombying the Elynole.
Then just cast Life on it, and *poof* you win. I've noticed that
Phoenix Downs always seem to miss it, but haven't had a problem with
the spell yet. I usually take the thing down before it even gets a
chance to act, and my characters does have have Initiative ability
equipped

Bosses Strategies
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some of the strategies from the contributors. They are pretty efficient.
If you have a problem in battling a BOSS, I will add it here. Just
submit the status (include GFs you have, level of your characters, name
of weapon) to me and I will try.

Armagedon Madness I: Defeating the GF Jumbo Cactaur
by Akuma20000
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basics Requirements:
- Level 60. Have Zell in the party and have his HP keep at the critical
status, yellow in color. Have tons of Phoenix Downs. Have the other
characters with the item and Draw.
- Magic needed:
100x Ultima - junctioned it to Zell's Str stats through Str-J. Triple
works quite well too. Get this from the draw points found at the
Island closest to Hell/Heaven and the draw point found at the second
floor of the windmill at FH. You can get a lot of this at the Shumi
Village but it is rather costly.
Meltdown - you can get that from the BOSS or you can get that by
drawing from Gayla.
Slow - you can draw this magic from the Caterchipillar.
Protect - most monsters have them, refer to Monsters section for more
details.
Haste - draw from the GIM52A while at D-District Tower or the Iron
Giant.
Curaga - draw from Caterchipillar while your characters are at
Level 60+. Mesmerize will be a preferred choice.
Water - draw from the Grant Mantis. Stock 100x Water and junctioned
to Elem-Atk-J. If Zell's Str Stats are 255, you can do 9999 HP damage!
Steps in defeating the Jumbo Cactaur
1. Draw Meltdown from the Cactaur and cast on the BOSS, this will
decrease the defensive stats of the Cactaur.
2. Have one character cast Slow on the Cactaur.
3. Have the others cast Triple and followed by Haste and Protect
4. Now just keep on using Zell's Limit Break [tap Circle repeatedly
until it appears and each of his hits will take over 1000+ and if
you're lucky, the rate of critical that will be about 3000+
5. Just using the normal moves, such as Rush Punch and Booya. Let's
say you can get 9 seconds for Zell's special technique and for each
second you get around 3 hits (each hit giving around 1500 damage)
that's a total of 4500 for 1 second and if you can get nine seconds,
Zell can easily cause around 40,000+ HP damage!
6. Meanwhile have the other two characters, for healing lost HP and
drawing. Don't bother to heal Zell and just keep him at critical
status so that you can use his Limit Break each time. Just make
sure that the other characters have maintained their HP above 3000
(just in case, the Cactaur uses its elbow drop!) If Zell dies
just use a Phoenix Down or cast Life on him and that'll be enough
OTHER STUFFS
- This strategy isn't meant for people who want to beat the Cactaur
at low levels. This method has only one aim, that's this consume
items and magic spells [such as precious Aura]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Armagedon Maddness I: Defeating the Bahamut
by Akuma 20000
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basics Requirements
- Have Zell at Level 60 and have him at critical status. Junction
powerful magic to boast up his Str stats. Equip Auto Haste and
3x Initiative [each for one character..]
Magic needed:
- Slow -> Draw this magic from the Caterchipillar
Meltdown -> Draw this magic from the Gayla
Steps in defeating the Bahamut
1. Cast Meltdown and Slow while have Zell doing his limit techniques.
Kept everyone's HP above 4000+. You will be able to finish of the
Bahamut with just two Limit Breaks [9 seconds... it is
indeed a killer.] Have tons of Phoenix Down in your inventory.
Meanwhile seize the opportunity to get spells such as Full-life.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The War against Jumbo Cactaur with Water
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Have you seen Squall does 9999 HP everytime, you uses the Attack
Command? It is possible.. But you need to get the following ^_^;
Water - draw from the Grand Mantis found at the Lenown Plains. Get 100x
of this and junction 100x Water to Elem-Atk-J. [well, the
Cactaur is weak against that.]
Revive - just in case the BOSS uses its 10,000 Needles.. The Revive
Command restore the character's HP back to full health!
Get Squall's Str stats to 255. [Ultima will be the best choice. If you
can't junction Str +20%, Str +40% to boost it to that status.] Have
Squall in Critical Status and you will see the might. I have defeat it
with the Lion Heart as I have uses Irvine's Pulse Destruction and
Zell's Armagedon Fist Madness. Lion Heart will be the top option.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Defeat the Odin in less than 3 minutes
by Markweb Jimenez ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all, have Squall equipped with Str +20% and Str +40%. This will
make Squall's Str stats to be increased by 60%! Next have him does
attack [making him in critical status] and have him using his Limit
Breaks on the Odin. You will be able to finish the Odin in a turn or
two.. [this will help to conserve some precious Aura magic] There is a
way of get Squall in critical status, first have Squall being killed in
a battle. Next revive Squall with a Phoenix Down and you will be able to
use Squall's Limit Break easily when you tap Circle repeatedly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gun-Destruction Fire against Bahamut
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course, you need the character that most people does not like most..
Irvine Kinneas. But he is relatively one of the most strongest as you
used the ultimate level up technique (mentioned in the Miscellaneous
section)
For Irvine.
100x Pulse Ammo - you can get Energy Crystal fast and easy... by defeat
the Elnoyle at Esthar City (refer to Monster Besitary for more info.)
100x AP Ammo - you can get this, by refine Chef's Knife through
Ammo-RF.
100x Triple/Meteor/Ultima - this works well, if you junction to boost
his Str-J.
100x Blind - draw from the Grat, or heck, search through the Besitary.
Junctioned it to other character's ST-Atk-J
Initative
Have Irvine in critical status (aka. yellow HP.) and tap Circle
repeatedly to use Limit Break. Note have him attack with a normal
attack first to inflicit the Darkness status on the Bahamut. Next uses
his Limit Break. Start off with the AP Ammo and then the Pulse Ammo.
You will be able to finish it off within a minute...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy Defeat of Diablos (later stages.)
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Diablos are indeed tough in the later stages. It has awesomely strong
attack against your characters.. (about 2000+ HP for that charge if you
battle it at Level 100). Junction 100x Blind and Sleep to each
character's ST-Atk-J. Stock up Demi and use the "stocked" Demi and it
will counter with Curaga. Once your characters are on critical status,
attack with Limit Breaks and it is all over.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Defeating Adel (Disc 3)
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wonder why I keep on getting e-mails on how to defeat Adel? It was
beginning to annoy me.. I guess I think I know what's wrong. Remember
that Adel has Rinoa being embedded in her? You can easily defeat her if
you concentrate on her and keep on maintaining Rinoa's HP. I guess the
guy's team will be fine for this battle. Have all GFs junctioned to all
the characters. Particularly make Zell's and Irvine's Str up to at least
190. [For Irvine, get a lot of AP Ammo]. Just keep have Zell and Irvine
doing the Limit Breaks [Irvine: don't use his Flame Ammo and Shotgun
Ammo as it will inflict more of Rinoa and Adel]. Why not Squall as the
key attacking character? Occassionally he may unleash his Blasting
Zone.. [remember it does 9999 HP..] Rinoa's HP is at only up to the
maximum as 9034... So do considerate and don't be too dependant on
Squall. Instead have Squall as the healing party. [BTW, he can also be
a good healer!] I have notice a lot of people has problems in fighting
against Adel as due to low levels and low-level weapons...
Solution:
- Make sure you have at least 3x HP-J and junctioned it with your second
strongest magic. [Full-Life gives the highest boosting.. which you
can stock it from Master Tonberry, Fujin [disc 3 at Lunatic Pandora],
and Bahamut [he is a worm if you know its weakness..].
- Get as many Ultima to junctioned to either Zell or Irvine. They are
the best fighters besides Squall. Of course, you should have at least
3x Str-J. Have Zell excute the Armageddon Fist.
- Get as many Curaga as possible. Life is more useful compared to
Full-Life as it gives your characters revived from K.O and in critical
status. If you don't have Life, you better get Phoenix Downs. Always
kept Squall in his highest HP.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy Fight against Ultimecia
by Joshua Banker Rock Hill, SC ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Towards the end of the game, everyone should be maxed out with all the
GF abilities. Give everyone Auto-Potion and sell off anything that's
weaker than an X-Potion. Make 100 X-Potions by using Med LV Up. Also,
give one person Treatment and another member the Recover command. Don't
waste time with Revive. If you do things right, you won't need to
Revive or even use a Phoenix Down. Make your party Squall (duh), Rinoa
and Qusitis.
A: Squall... two words, Lion Heart. Nuff said.
B: Rinoa... Limit Breaks Wishing Star (massive amounts of damage) and
Invincible Moon (like a Woly War). C:
C: Quistis... Mighty Guard and Shockwave Pulsar (obscene amounts of
damage, possibly the third or fourth most damaging attack in the
game).
To begin with, waste off anyone starting in the party who is not one of
the three mentioned above, or let Ultimecia do it while you summon
Doomtrain (for the Vit 0 effect if nothing else). Once you have all
three up and running, cast Aura or use Aura stones on everyone and
start hitting away.
Once the attacks start rolling in, Auto-Potion should kick in. This is
especially helpful when hit with Demi, Gravija and Maelstorm. Also, you
might want to use the Luck + 50% ability to raise you chances of
getting Gilgamesh and the stronger Limit Breaks.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy Battle against Bahamut
by Sami "Elvenlord" Hautamaki ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
First put Ifrit to Squall and use Str bonus ability. Level Up in order
to get more strength. Then change Str bonus to Str+20%, Str+40% and get
HP +80% from Diablos. After that put strong magic to Hp-J (Meltdown is
good) and very good magic to strength (Ultima is best to this. Get 100x
of both magic.) Now you should have HP about 9000+ and massive strength
of 255. Next put good weapon to Squall and give high HP and strength to
Zell and Irvine.
How I fight. That's dead simple. Use Aura to Squall and use Limit Break.
Make one or two perfect Limit Break and you should have one badly
beaten GF.
You can use this tactic to all other boss too. It's more effective if
you give Zell and Irvine high strength stats and HP. They are the
probably the only characters who can do multiple damage when using
Limits.
Where to get Aura? You get them from Fury Fragments. 1x Fury Fragment
can be changed to 5x Aura magic with Supt Mag-RF. It take some time but
you can get lot of them when you are waiting that Ultima draw point to
recharge.
Hint. If character doesn't get limit change characters with O button
until they got it.

Easy Fight at Centra Ruins
by Christopher Ong Boon Siong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
For this to work get Odin first to remove the time limit.
Junction to Squall the following: Attack, magic, item and GF only.
To the 2 other characters: Attack, magic, item and GF. If you have
recover and/or revive you can replace magic with them. Magic need only
to be junction if you have Life or Full-life. Junction 100x Death to
ST-Def-J.
Basically the idea is to have Squall use his Limit Breaks constantly on
the Tonberry by maintaining a low HP for Squall. As Squall's Limit Break
generally have a total damage hit of more than 9999 if you trigger it
perfectly and with a chance to include a finishing blow. Thus it is much
more damaging and faster than the GF Diablos animation. If Squall is
killed, just use a Phoenix Down or use Life to revive him with the other
2 characters. This method have another advantage being that Squall's
Limit Break automatically jumps into battle the next turn even though
it is not his turn yet. Thus you don't have to spend a long time to
kill the 20 Tonberries. Just remember to save every time and then and
definitely after the 19th Tonberry. The only danger is not saving and
have your entire party killed.
As for the Tonberry King, the above method can also be use but it is
recommended that the other 2 characters have full HP constantly to
withstand the junk attack of the king, so as to be able to revive Squall
after the attack or just alternate healing after the attack and GF
attacks on the king when the entire party are at full life.
I accquire the GF Tonberry after getting Odin before atttacking Galbadia
Garden and finished disc 2 with Squall at level 100 and with his
Punishment, using both Zell (Ehergiz) and Quistis (Red Scorpion) for the
battle.

No woes in fighting Sorceress Edea!
by Shawn Nicholas ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A way to defeat Sorceress without being touched... Just junction Sleep
to ST-Atk-J in one of the character's weapons or cast Sleep on her.
Boy, what can I say, Edea is sleepy. She'll sleep throughout the battle
and all you need is to do is to cast Diablos which drains about 3,000 to
4,000 HP each turn. The funny thing is that, she still sleeps.. maybe
under reaches her coffin!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Getting Diablos before the train trip
by Omega 2003 ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Diablos' vital statistics: HP: 9200 ~ 9400
Attacks: Demi > removes 1/4 of the character's HP
Gravija > removes 1/4 of the entire party's HP
(charge) > physical attack on one member.
Recommended Party: Squall, Selphie and Zell
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zell Command: Attack GFs: Ifrit
HP-J 100x Esuna Magic - 100x Blind
Str-J 100x Fire Draw
Elem-Atk-J 100x Thunder GF
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Squall Command: Attack GFs: Siren, Quezacotl
HP-J 100x Esuna Magic
Mag-J 100x Blind Draw
ST-Atk-J 100x Sleep Item
ST-Def-J 100x Silence
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Selphie Command: Attack GFs: Shiva
Str-J 100x Fire Magic - 100x Blind
Spr-J 100x Esuna Draw - Full-cure acquired
Item
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just keep on casting Blind, until GF Diablos is under Darkness status.
Just draw in Demi magic and stocked until it is about 150+ Demi. While
drawing GF Diablos will be using his Gravija or casting Demi. Don't
heal your characters as these magics only reduces the HP. Once the
characters are in critical status, have Squall unleashes his
Renzoukuken and Zell doing his Duel. While Selphie should be cast
Full-cure on the entire party through her Slots Limit Breaks. Just
repeated the process and you will be able to kill off GF Diablos in
no time. Full-cure is essentially as there is an odd chance of GF
Diablos using the charge..
Hints: stock Blind from the BOSS Fight against Granaldo
stock Fire from Elite Soldiers, G-Soldiers during Dollet exam
stock Esuna from Biggs while battling at Communications Tower
stock Silence and Sleep from Grat found in Balamb Garden-
Training Center.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy defeat of GF Diablos with GF Carbuncle
by [email protected]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you don't want any risk in fighting this mean GF. Just get GF
Carbuncle which can be drawn from Iguions. Demi can be reflected by
the Ruby Light! But make use you uses item as your healing items so that
you will not lose out that much.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Foolproof against Adel
by Jason Kennedy ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is possible to defeat Adel at level 40. With a party combination of
Squall (at level 41), Selphie (at level 21), and Irvine (at level 23)
To beat Adel at such a low level, Cerberus must be cast, and you must
have at least 50 Cure spells (preferably Curaga) with each player. A
Cure spell must also be cast on Rinoa every so often. Ok, here is how
you do it...
1) Cast Cerberus
2) Cast Haste on all three players (repeat this when necessary)
3) Have Squall do the attacking
4) Have the other 2 players cast Thundaga or Firaga
5) Cast Curaga when necessary
I only had one character die once with this method, and that was
because I didn't cure when I should've. It seems pretty foolproof.

Defeating the Weapons
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Weapons are the most toughest BOSSES in Final Fantasies as the
nightmares such as the Diamond, Ruby, Ultimate, Emerald and Sapphire
Weapon from FF7 and Omega Weapon from FF5. I myself have come up with
some strategies. Whom is going into the battles? Actually for myself,
I believed that every character is good!
----[ Character Analysis ]----
Squall Leonhart
Of course you don't have the choice of not using him. But he is indeed
a great character and perhaps the most damaging Limit Break (physical)
when you have gotten his Lion Heart. Extremely dangerous if you have
junctioned his Str to 255. How to get Lion Heart, refer to Part II or
the Weapon Upgrading Guide (sigh..)
Zell Dincht
Don't look down on this super hyperactive kid. He has great Speed
stats and can does a handful amount of damage when you chain his
moves when executing his Limit Break. Hmm.. Armageddon Fists.. (the
chain between Rush Punch and Booya)
Irvine Kinneas
The most well-rounded character with decent attacking power and
defense stats. He could easily knocked down any formidable foe if you
have Pulse Ammo in the inventory. Best if you have junction Drain to
his ST-Atk-J! He can be a superb character if you have train him with
Cactaur junctioned with all the bonuses. Simply a dangerous man..
Quistis Trepe
She is also a great character plus she has a move [Mighty Guard] that
could cause Haste, Protect, Float, Shell, Regen and sometimes Aura!
Best of all, her Shockwave Pulsar could does over 9999 HP damage to all
foes! Monsters (except for certain monsters such as Tonberry) have the
most fear for her Degenerator.
Selphie Tilmitt
Probably the best support character. Even though her offense isn't
great compared to Quistis, but she could make something like cast
Full Cure and Wall on the entire party. She can does more damage with
her awesome trademark "The End". However her Rapture does not work
that well... Her Strange Vision has an amazing hit rate of 255%!
Rinoa Heartilly
I would recommend her if you does have enough Hero. Make sure that you
have acquired Invincible Moon and Angelo will be able to cast
Invincibility on the entire party. Her Angelo Cannon is also rather
massive, could does over 9999 HP damage when she has acquired high
levels.
I myself have made the following combinations (they may not 100%
worked, so don't sue me ^_^;) but most of them worked for me.
Top Combinations of Party!
___________________________________________________________________
| | | | | | |
| Squall | Squall | Squall | Squall | Squall | Squall |
| Irvine | Quistis | Selphie | Zell | Zell | Irvine |
| Zell | Rinoa | Rinoa | Rinoa | Quistis | Selphie |
|__________|__________|__________|__________|__________|__________|
ESSENTIAL WEAPONS
Preferred if you have gotten their best weapons. Lion Heart is a must
when battling against Weapons. Refer to The Weapon Upgrading section
for more details. I myself think that characters such as Zell and
Irvine will not be great if they does have their ultimate weapons. I
have noticed that the better the weapon, the better the hit rate.
ESSENTIAL MAGIC
Magic is really important.. if you don't have them, your attacking
power will not be too good.. So here is the list where you will get
the spells.
<<< Curaga >>>
An important factor for tough battles as they could recover most of
damage. Make sure that all characters have them. You can get this by
drawing from Mesmerize at high levels or Caterchipillar.
<<< Meltdown >>>
This magic can lowers the defensive stats of the BOSS, thus weakening
them. For example, if Squall inflicts 4000+ HP damage with his
Renzoukuken, now when Meltdown is being cast on that foe, he can do up
6,000+ damage. You can obtain this spell by drawing from Gayla.
<<< Full-life >>>
This magic is great as it could revive a death character back to full
health. You can get tons of these from the Draw Points found at the
borders of the Island closest to Hell/Heaven. You can also stock up
this from your fights against the King Tonberry and the Bahamut.
<<< Aura >>>
A very important magic. This magic will allows you to unleash the
character's Limit Breaks! You can get this from the Draw Points found
at the borders of the Islands closest to Hell/Heaven. You can also
stock up during the last battle against Seifer at the Lunatic Pandora.
<<< Haste >>>
It is impossible to have three Spd +40% [if you are willing to sacrifice
Irvine's Card..], This magic will do it's best as you will be able to do
a lot of turns before the Weapons have reaches their turns. You can
draw this from the Iron Giant and GIM52A
<<< Regen >>>
This magic allows you to restore HP once the character have reached his/
her turn and this magic works its best against the Omega. You can draw
this spell from the Behemoths. Quite good support [however I still
prefer the previous Regen where it restores 1 HP for every second..]
<<< Ultima >>>
Used for junctioning to your characters' stats thus bolstering them up.
You can get most of these from the Draw Points found at the borders of
the Island closest to Hell/Heaven or pay 5,000 gil at the Shumi Tribe
[where you find the elevator]. There is another one found the second
floor of the windmill in FH.
<<< Triple >>>
Quite a good spell in bolstering your character's abilities. You can
draw this from the BOSSES fight against Cerberus and the Odin. You can
get this magic by converting 5 Double Magic to 1 Triple Magic through
Hi-Mag-RF Menu ability [Alexander]. You can get Double magic by drawing
from Grendel. It works like the All Materia in FF7
<<< Meteor >>>
Quite a good spell when comes to junction against the character's Str
stats. You can get this by drawing from the Ruby Dragon. I would
recommend to draw from the draw points found at the Island Closest to
Hell/Heaven.
<<< Death >>>
You need this spell to protect your characters from death-type attacks
such as LV 5 Death [Level 100 characters will die instantly.] You can
draw this from the Tonberry.
Essential GFs [don't bother to summon it unless the character has high
compatibility against it, use GF comptability items to do this. To
improve comptability such as Eden, summoned them frequently!]
________________________________________________________________________
GFs FOR Squall Leonhart
<> Cerberus --- of course you have seen it appearing in most parts of
my strategies against BOSSES. Actually while fighting against
Weapons, there is no need in summoning it but make sure that it has
the following abilities:
- Auto Haste (c), Spd +40% (c), Spd-J (j), ST-Def x4 (j)
<> GF Quezacotl, Shiva, Bahamut, Tonberry
- HP-J, Mag-J, Str-J, Str +60%, Mag +60%, Auto Protect, Ability x4,
Initiative, Vit J [make sure that it has hit at least 200]
________________________________________________________________________
GFs FOR Second Character [the character whom has lower Speed stats]
<> Pandemona -- Another great GF when comes to Speed. This fact actually
allows your characters to select his/her commands before the BOSSES
does its turn.
- Spd +40% (c), Initiative (c), Str-J (j)
<> GF Brothers, Alexander, Carbuncle, Doomtrain
- HP +80%, HP-J, Vitality J, Revive, Ability x3, ST-Def x4, Str-J
________________________________________________________________________
GFs FOR Third Character [the character whom has higher Speed stats]
<> Cactaur -- Another great GF which can helps in building up a
strong character with all bonuses such as Str Bonus, HP Bonus
and much more. Train the character with Vit Bonus equipped.
- Initiative (c)
<> GF Ifrit, Diablos, Leviathan, Siren
- HP-J, Str-J, HP +80%, [Enc-None], Str +40%,
ST-Def x2 (junction against Death), Ability x4 (use a
Rosetta Stone if you have one, just eliminate SumMag +10%

Speed Battle against Ultima Weapon
By Sung Kato ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The best way to tackle the weapons is to acquired Squall's Lion Heart [
his ultimate weapon which can does 17x 9999 HP damage to any foe at the
Str Stats of 255.] Don't bother in summoning GFs because even though
they does damage, but now that your characters can do comparable damage.
Summoning a GF requires time, and speed is the key to victory in
defeating the Weapons. Start the battle by cast Meltdown [all your
character's ATB Time Bar should be full as you can automatically
selects the command immediately as you started the battle. Cast Haste
on the characters with the lowest Speed stats. Have Squall or someone
else casting Aura on Squall and have him does the Renzoukuken. If your
party is being hurt by the Ultima Weapon, use Recover to restore lost
HP and cast Full-Life on death characters [which can be drawn from the
BOSS]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Light of War
By Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Speed is everything for this war.. Junction 100x Ultima to Squall's
Str-J and make sure it is 255. Make full use Lion Heart as it will be
the most damaging attack. Junction 100x Quake to all character's
Elem-Def-J. Make sure that you have all GFs (except for Eden or you can
get that....) Okay make sure you have a couple of Aura magic or Aura
Stones. It is very important. How to get Aura, scroll to the essential
magic section.
- Give every character Initative (from Tonberry, Cactaur, Pandemona)
- Junction Spd-J for every characters (Auto-Haste is a top option for
Squall)
- 1000 compatibility with Cerberus for Squall.
- Juntion 100x Quake to every characters' Elem-Def-J.
- Make sure you have aleast 50x Regen, Aura, Meltdown.
- If you have gotten Quistis, make sure you have Mighty Guard. and she
must be in critical status.
- 50x Mega Phoenix in your inventory or Phoenix Down. Phoenix Pinion
is essentail in case of accident ^_^;
Starting off...
- Cast Mighty Guard or having in this sequence.
Summon Cerberus and have the two character cast Meltdown on Ultima
and the other character cast Regen on all characters.
- Next turn, cast Aura and Curaga to restore lost HP from the sword
swipe attack. Use Phoenix Down (if one character is down) or Mega
Phoenix if other two characters are down.
- Once in Aura, use Squall's Renzoukuken... Continue to have other do
the healing [Zell and Irvine can also join in the fight too, but
make sure at least one of them do the healing]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ultima Weapon to be finished in 2 minutes.
by BoBaFeT & Sephiroth <[email protected]>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
First of all, you must have Aura magic. Next you must have Irvine in
your party. You also need to have AP Ammo which you can buy this in
Esthar. You must use Aura in battle on Irvine this way he will get his
Limit Break every time you can choose him. Now you must use AP Ammo and
you will shoot 9999 points of damage every time you shoot on the Ultima
Weapon. Irvine's strength must be 255.

/ Omega Weapon \________________________________________________________
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Defeating The Omega Weapon
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The nightmare from FF5 is back.. more powerful and it's a killer. When
I first play against it in the Japanese Version, I thought that it was
just like the Ultima (not that though).. but surprising it is a killer.
My party HP is less than 9999 as I have just fought the Tiamat.. Here
you will find the strategy to kill it! If you defeat it, you will find
the Proof of Omega.
Some Shocking statistics:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Omega Weapon
Level 100 HP: 1,161,000 (if Squall's Level is 100)
Str 255! Mag 255! (well, quite shocking huh?)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Attack List of the Omega Weapon
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LV5 Death (all)
Description: A devil rises from the ground and attacks all characters.
Damage: n/a (if fully protected), Extreme (if not protected)
Avoid: Anyone with levels,multiple of 5 will be killed. Junction
100x Death to ST-Def-J to prevent this.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meteor (all)
Description: The characters are being transported into space and thus
a meteorite shower is formed.
Damage: Average
Avoid: Just simply increase Vit-J and Spr-J
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ultima (all)
Description: A green ball of energy appears just like a explosion of
energy.
Damage: High
Avoid: Increase Mag Def by junction magic to Spr-J
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gravija (all)
Description: The Omega Weapon summons a black ball of Gravity energy
that attacks all members.
Damage: Medium ~ Extreme
Avoid: Can't but he is helping you to get critical status ^_^;,
But make sure that your character's HP are kept at its
fullest!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Light Pillar <Licht Saule> (single)
Description: The Omega Weapon launches a beam of light energy from its
torso. (rapid firing)
Damage: 9999 HP, Danger!
Avoid: Use a 9999 HP GF as your block shield.. Or resurrect your
characters using Mega Phoenix or Phoenix Down.
Invincibility from Hero works well..
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Megido Flame <Megid Flamme> (all)
Description: The Omega fires a beam that attacks all characters.
Damage: 9998 HP to all characters, Extreme
Avoid: Same as above. But it will be better if you have some
Phoenix Pinion in your inventory.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Terra Break <Terra Brake> (all)
Description: The Omega leaps in mid-air and blast down with flames of
energy on the entire party.
Damage: Does random, multiple hits. Medium to Extreme damage.
Avoid: Very hard to dodge. High Vit can minimize the damage to
200 HP only.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Conditions:
- All characters' HP must be 9999 HP.
- Get all GFs to Level 100, As for Eden, LV 70 is already more than
enough.
- Get 3x ST-Def-J.
- Get 100x Ultima for each character and junctioned to Str-J. Add some
Str +20%, Str+40%, Str+60%, to reached 255.
- Get aleast 2x Phoenix Pinion - you can get more through the following
method.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Getting Phoenix Pinions
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why need this? You are facing the toughest BOSS in FF8 and you need to
guarrantee that you can stay in the battle for a long time.
(1) 50x Phoenix Down -> 1x Mega Phoenix [or buy at Esthar Shop]
(2) Get 3x Mega Phoenix [use Quick Gil Cheat... refer to Part II]
(3) Convert it Phoenix Pinion (3 Mega Phoenix :1 Phoenix Pinion) through
Tool-RF (GF Siren)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Getting Holy War (it is rather tedious..)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah.. This is rather tedious. You need to get a lot of items (
especially Cursed Spikes) where you can get Heroes through several
refinement sections. However, there is an alternate way and that is
through Card Mod-RF where you can change:
BTW, a Holy War is equalvent to 3x Heroes..
Card Mod-RF
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gilgamesh's Card: 1x -> 10x Holy Wars
Laguna's Card: 1x -> 100x Heroes
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The tough way..... (extremely tedious)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In summarising, you need to get 10,000 Cursed Spikes to get 1x Holy War!
(1) Get 100x Cursed Spike (win from Imp [rare], Forbiddon [rare],
Tri-Face)
(2) Convert 100x Cursed Spike in 1x Dark Matter through Tool-RF (GF
Siren must be at Level 100)
(3) Tool-RF List (GF Siren)
1x Rosetta Stone --> 1x Shaman Stone (Water Gate Incident)
1x Hungry Cookpot --> 1x Shaman Stone (UFO Incident)
1x Mog's Amulet --> 1x Shaman Stone (Pocketstation)
1x Dark Matter --> 1x Shaman Stone (the tedious method..)
Scott: "Don't be shocked.."
(4) Forbid Med-RF (GF Doomtrain)
10x Shaman Stone --> 1x Holy War Trial (^_^; feel like crying huh?)
Scott: "The next step will make you vomit blood"
(5) Med LV-Up (GF Alexander)
10x Holy War Trial -> 1x Holy War
So in "5" steps you can get a Holy War ^_^;
------------------------------------------------------------------------
So now you will know the importance of the Card Game? The Pocketstation
also plays a vital role in the game, as you can get these items easily..
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Speed Battle against Omega Weapon
by Sung Kato ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This method works with the Offensive Team [Squall, Zell and Irvine]
Have Zell as the healer for this battle. Make sure that everyone has
100x Death being junctioned to the character's ST-Def-J. Make sure that
both Irvine and Squall's Str stats has hit 255. First of all, have Zell
casting Triple on himself, have the rest does the attacking. Have Zell
cast Aura on the entire party. Next have Squall and Irvine executing
their Limit Breaks. Meanwhile, have Zell cast Haste on the entire
party. Continue your attacks until the party's HP have drop to one..
Next have Irvine casting Recover on Squall while Zell [whom have Mag
255] casting Curaga on Irvine and himself. If the Omega has killed one
of the members, revive him with Revive or Full-Life [if you use Life/
Phoenix Down/Mega Phoenix, has that character summon a HP 9999 GF to
withstand the damage for him. Continue your endurance and you will be
able to trash the Omega.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Extreme Combat
by Scott Ong ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*EVERYONE'S HP MUST REACHED 9999 **
Members required: Squall, Quistis and Zell
Others: - 100x Ultima junctioned to Str and get 255 for both Squall and
Zell.
- Get about 40x Aura
- 100x Death and junctioned it to ST-Def-J
- 100x Triple or high affection with GF Cereberus. (refer above)
- 100x Haste
- Mighty Guard (use Barrier (steal from Behemoth)
- 3x Intitative (Pandemona, Cactaur, Tonberry)
- Lion Heart (ugh.. if someone asked me about this.. I gonna to
kill him. Explain a couple of times already...)
Start off..
(1) - Cast Aura on everyone.
(2) - Have Quistis cast Mighty Guard. Squall using Renzoukuken and Zell
uses Armageddon Fist. [Switch turns, don't have both to attack at
the same time.]
(3) - Omega should be casting the Lv5 Death already. Cast Regen on
everyone. (hopefully that you are lucky..) Have Squall continue
attacking.
(4) - Omega will now be casting the Meteor. STOP Attack! Use Recover and
Curaga and keep HP to its maximum.
(5) - Omega will be using its Megid Flamme which does 9998 HP. Use a
Megalixir/Recover/Mega Phoenix (if someone's killed)
(6) - The Omega may switch its combat tactics from now onwards.. So be
carefully of Gravijia. Again use Recover and Curaga to restore
back to full health. If it uses Licht Scale.. revive that
character immediately. It has to be a 3 on 1 fight.
(7) - Next the Omega will uses a series of spells such as Ultima,
Demi to attack. So seize the opportunity, still have Quistis as
the support member.
(8) - Once the Omega has uses Lv5 Death once again.. it is back to
(1). Keep up the edurance and you will be able to beat it!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rush Hour.. Holy War Attack!
by [email protected]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Firstly you have to level up all GFs and characters until it reached
level 100 and the GFs have learned all the abilities (not necessarily),
and you must have gotten the best weapon.
After that, junction the GF to your character as you wish, try to get HP
with 9999, in example; here is the character i've used,
Zell at HP 9999 and level 100
Squall at Level 100 and his best weapon Lion Heart
Irvine with hp 9999 and level 100
Don't junction Eden to Squall, because Squall's only attacking arsenal
is his Limit Break. Remember that, you must have a lot of Holy Wars,
which you can obtained from by using Card Mod on Gilgamesh card.
Get a lot of Aura spells which can be gotten through Supt Mag-RF [1x
Fury Fragment [mugged from Blue Dragon] --> 5x Aura]
During battle,
The first thing you do, cast Aura onto Squall and have the other use
Holy Wars and another summon a GF [note: you must cast Aura to Squall
first before using the Holy Wars, if your magic will cause a miss)
After that, continue with Squall unleash his Limit Breaks and summon GF
Eden without worry getting hit with the enemy. But don't forget to cast
Aura on Squall again, after the effect of Holy Wars have worn off, and
used another Holy War. Keep on continuing using this pattern, and the
Omega will be dead meat in no time..
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fighting Omega without Aura
by oDiN ([email protected])
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. All you need is your three best characters (I really don't care who,
besides Squall and Zell of course) equipped with Initiative and the
BEST junctions (probably all best magic junctioned to Spd-J, Str-J,
Spr-J, Eva-J and Vit-J).
2. Characters at Level 100 and 100 Deaths at St-Def-J and at least
everyone must have the Item command and Holy War as first selection
in the Battle.
3. EXTREMELY LOW HP (probably 800-1000 HP is enough) but be sure that
your characters have their max base HP (1000/9999). Remember this:
you want Zell's 12-second Duel, Squall's Lion Heart and Irvine's
slow Time Bar do you? And since you may want the idea of not
wasting any Aura spells because it's junctioned to a stat, a low HP
increases the chances of a better Limit Break rather than an Aura
spell (heck, its my opinion)
4. A couple of Holy Wars or Rinoa's Invincible Moon (for the holy wars:
Card Mod Laguna card, then Med Lev Up all 100 Heroes into 10 Holy
War-Trials, then 10 Holy War-Trials into 1 Holy War or Card Mod
Gilgamesh card for 10 Holy Wars).
5. Speedy characters but leave a weak character because you want him/
her to do the Holy War thingies and probably a cast of Meltdown to
lower Omega's vitality stats (junction 100 Triple to Spd-J plus a
couple of Spd+% percentages, it's up to you plus the Initiative
ability for all three characters from Pandemona, Cactuar and
Tonberry).
START THE FIGHT!!!
If Omega Weapon will use a Physical Attack at the start of the fight:
Answer : Junction lots to Vit-J plus lots of Vit+% percentages and lots
to Spd-J and Eva-J if you don't have Vit-J junction.
If Omega will use LV5 Death at the start of the fight:
Answer : Junction 100 Death to St-Def-J beforehand or any level that's
not a multiple of 5.
1. Use this character lineup:
First : your average fighter, probably a support member for using
Holy Wars and casting Life/Phoenix Downs/Mega Phoenix
Second : Squall
Third : your next strongest fighter, also a speedy, but fighting,
character
2. Your first member must use the Holy War (scrap Aura, you'll have
low HP and higher chances of a stronger limit break).
3. Heck, you know what to do right now, do you? If not, cast Meltdown,
then LION HEART! DUEL! SHOT! Those interactive Limit Breaks can
surely bring Omega Weapon down easily.
4. If you lose Invincibility status, use any of your characters to
Holy War (you have speedy characters, so you may outrun Omega
Weapon's attacks before he uses the deadly Mendigo Flame (9998
damage) or Terra Break (meteor-like attack that deals 5000-9000).
5. Well, that's about it! Just repeat these four steps and Omega'll
go down fast. (Lousy suggestion : since you'll be gaining 250 AP
afterwards, I suggest that you move Eden's learning to Expend-3x1,
that is if you're not done researching all those high-priced
abilities. Lousy, isn't it? :)
NOTE that you can _lower_ the damage done by the Terra Break IF you
junction to 255 Spirit (magic defense). One time Krysta (the
crystal boss in the balcony at the back room of the chandelier)
casted Ultima on me and did about 200 damage!
ALSO NOTE that above I said 'the BEST junctions (probably all best
magic junctioned to Spd-J, Str-J, Spr-J, Eva-J and Vit-J)'. It's
actually optional to junction to Eva-J and Spr-J/Vit-J but it's
better to play safe in case you lose Invincibility status and Omega
suddenly attacks you.

Defeat Omega at Ease
by [email protected]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: Refer to Power Up with Bonuses for the preparations section
After fighting him several times I think I found a pretty good strategy
that works. You need to refine the Gilgamesh card to get 10 holy wars,
Laguna too if you want extra insurance. This strategy is a bit risky
but overall it kills him fast and is easy to pull off. Simply go into
battle with Squall at about 400 or 500 hp to eliminate the need to
cast Aura on him (and he seems more likely to pull off Lion Heart the
lower his HP are). When the battles starts have the first character
cast haste on Squall and the second character cast meltdown on Omega
and then the third use Holy War. Then just hit round after round of
Renzouken. Squall doesn't seem to like using Lion Heart on Omega Weapon
so don't expect him to use it too much. Of the three times I fought
Omega Squall only used Lion Heart once. The Holy War seems to wear off
of Squall before the others using this strategy so either use Hero on
him or just use another Holy War. You should only have to use 3 or 4
Holy Wars because Squall can get in about 5 or 6 limit breaks every
Holy War.

Ultimate Weapon Upgrading Guide
========================================================================
First of all, I need to start off with the following facts [some of
them are good news and bad news..]
1. You don't necessary need the Weapon Mon Magazines to get the
weapons. I have actually play back an old file [which I have
forgotten to get the magazine, Weapon Mon 1st Issue]. As a result,
I ended training and gotten numerous amounts of ingredients for the
Lion Heart. As I was about to tune up Irvine's weapon, Exector,
which is found Weapon Mon Aug. I found the Lion Heart is
upgradeable.. as I have gotten the requirements! So it is not
necessary to get them unless you have gotten the requirements.
2. Squall's Lion Heart can't be gotten in Disc 1... Why? In Disc 1,
you are only limited to travelled within the Galbadia Continent
which makes it impossible to get to the ingredient, "Dragon Fang"
However, it's possible to get it at Disc 2 onwards. I have found
another place to encounter Blue Dragons. Plus it applies to almost
all other characters. You may need to play card intensively.. by
getting over 20x Elynole's Card [that's mad..] and converts them
through Card-Mod-RF. Still, I would prefer to get the first few
weapons before that fight begins.
3. Rare Items such as Moon Curtains, Med Kit, Doc's Code can't be
gotten from battles, instead you need to undergone a couple of
refinement process. This makes me earned for the Accessories to
come back. This will work much easier if you have gotten a
Pocketstation. [unfortunately, I don't own one.]. For those whom have
read the Monsters FAQ (also found in GameFAQs), you will seen the
ultimate disaster in getting 1x Holy War..
4. Certain weapons required items are very hard to get... Examples are
Adamantine, Energy Crystals etc. [the monsters that own them are
even more tougher. One good example is the Ruby Dragon, which has
an awesome HP of 89,100 at Level 100] But it's possible to defeat it.
Locations of Junk Shops
-| Balamb Junk Shop - left of the screen of the town centre.
-| Deling Junk Shop - in the Parade road
-| Dollet Junk Shop - found within Noutilus
-| FH Junk Shop - found on the right of town centre, cross the
| planks
-| Esthar Junk Shop - it's Don Juan's Shop!
-| Man at Garden - it's the Card Magician Joker! You will find him
at the Training Center (randomly)
I hopefully you basically know the menu set-up look like. If not, refer
to the diagrams below [this diagram looks identical to the Junk Shop
menu]:
___________________________________________________
| Title of Junk Shop |
|___________________________________________________|
| Squall Leonhart |
|___________________________________________________|
| | |
| Steel Pipe | Revolver 100 |
| 1 (3) | |> Keer Trigger 200 |
| | Cutting Trigger 400 |
| Screws | Flame Saber 600 |
| 2 (30) | |
| |___________________________________|
| | Strength 45% -> 48%^ |
| | Accuracy 255% -> 255% |
|_______________|___________________________________|
Well, time for some explanations. The numbers in the brackets are
those that you have in your ITEM inventory. If the numbers on the left
exceed the numbers in the brackets, then you will be unable to perform
an upgrade.
In case, my English is a bit too hard to understand...
_ _ _ _ _ the name of the ingredient
____/_____________
| Adamantine |
| 1 (0) |
| \_ _ _ _ _ available in your item inventory
|__ requirements
In this above case, you can't perform an upgrade. The weapon [as you
may guess it's the Lion Heart]. Why, you don't have the item produce an
upgrade. (0) is definitely less than 1. It is pretty easy to understand.
If that's not clear, there's nothing I can do...
Note that you can de-graded your weapon back to it's original form, but
the used materials will be gone forever. If the number 48 is yellow in
colour, that means there is an increase in attacking power. But if the
colour of the digits is red, which means that your previous upgraded
weapon is much better than the weapon you have chosen to upgrade to.
[For example, Flame Saber is obviously a better weapon compared to the
Cutting Trigger.]
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE (regarding combat)
You can't get an item from a monster by winning IF you had steal from a
monster during combat. How to equipped Mug? Refer to Basic Tutorial.
Examples:
1. You fought 2x Adamantoise and you mug one of them [get an item,
let's say Whisper for an example.]. You will not get Adamantine
even though you have defeat the other one. Adamantine can be ONLY
obtained if you defeat BOTH Adamantoise and do not mug them!
2. You fought 1x Ruby Dragon and you mug it [get: Inferno Fang] and
when you defeat it you get nothing.
3. You fought 1x Ruby Dragon and defeat it. You will mostly get Fury
Fragment or Inferno Fang [between level 20 ~ 40] or Energy Crystal
[level 80 and above]
Okay, time for the requirements..

Sending a Question
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This problem has given me much problems from my previous FAQs. I have
tried my best to answer when possible. Also don't ask me questions which
answers can be found in the FAQ. First of all, read the following before
sending an e-mail to Scott:
- Remember to add in "FF8" as your subject in the subject field of the
e-mail. I have gotten countless e-mails for FF8 and it will help me if
you classified it with the game titles.
- Next state your question as clearly as possible. If I find the e-mail
quite hard to understand, I really don't know how to help it.
- Make sure that words are not in CAPS lock [capital letters], which is
quite rude, anywhere it doesn't matter to me. But try to avoid it
when necessary. Once I was really in a bad mood that I deleted all
e-mails that written in CAPS lock..
- If a question is too frequently asked, I will add it to the FAQ under
frequently-asked section.
- Don't expect me to give answers which can be found in the FAQ. Or it
will be useless for me to type it out so concisely.
- If you have problems in locating a shop/building, refer to the Maps
section to settle out those problems.
- BTW, unlike other FAQ writers, I have only one motive and that's to
help you guys out there by writting the FAQ as concise as possible. [
in order to give the help that I could]. Anyway, the usefulness of the
FAQ can be proved by judging the amount of e-mails.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most Frequently Asked Questions [FAQs].
------------------------------------------------------------------------
- READ THIS BEFORE SENDING AN E-MAIL. Well, I do accept complaints and
comments for my FAQs. I would prefer complaints as it allows me to
know what changes can be done for the FAQ. If you have a comments,
free to drop an e-mail. [it helps to urge me on!]
Q: Can I post the FAQ for your website?
A: Sure as long as the following steps are followed:
- the disclaimer, including my name and format of the document is not
altered.
- No changes should not be made to the FAQ.
- No HTMLizing of document, as this is same as editing the document.
You can't place banners on top of the FAQ.
- If you link to GameFAQs, don't link it directly to the FAQ, instead
link it to the Final Fantasy VIII FAQs database at GameFAQs.
Q: Where can I get the latest revisions of the FAQ?
A: At GameFAQs. If you want your site to be added to the addresses where
this FAQ can be gotten, you need to seek permission from me.
Q: Can you sent me the FAQ?
A: No. Otherwise, I would not have to post it to GameFAQs. Remember that
this FAQ is a bit too huge to be posted via e-mail. Remember that you
need to get the latest revisions yourself at GameFAQs.
(http://www.gamefaqs.com)
I know that some guys out there have problems in access to Internet
due to personal reasons. But it can't be helped. Anyway, you can
always count on a friend to get it for you. I felt quite sorry for
WebTV users as they can access a maximum of 170 Kbs. Don't worry, I
will try my best to keep this file small. Or I may spilt the FAQ in
separate FAQs.
Q: What other FAQs that you have written?
A: Quite a lot, you can check it out at my Contributor page anyway.
Q: Why you haven't answered my e-mail?
A: There perhaps may be a few reasons:
- school [I still got tons of assignments/projects/tests]
- the answer can be found in the FAQ [if you haven't received the
e-mail for two weeks]. I always check my e-mail during weekends/
holidays, unless I am really busy for that week.
- Other things may coped up.
Note that if you can't contact me, feel free to contact other FAQ
writers for the particular game. But I will be free most of the time
during school vacations.
- I may be busying playing the game to uncover more secrets.

Frequently Asked Questions
========================================================================
For this section, you will find all those frequently asked questions and
the key events of the game. Note that these are the questions, which I
will not reply anymore. BTW, if you have problems regarding BOSS fight,
please check out both Part I/II for the guides that you need.
Last Updated: 14/10/2000
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Questions
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The list may be expanded depends on the number of e-mails that I have
recieved on that particular topic.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. How do you junction commands?
A: You can ONLY junction commands (such as Magic, Item, Draw, etc.)
and abilities (Mag-J, Str-J, Str+20%, SumMag +20%, Counter, Cover,
etc) if you have a GF equipped for the characters. To equip a GF,
select the character and Junction from the main menu. Next pick a
GF and you will be able to equip the command! You can more help
from the Tutorial Menu in the game.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. How many GFs are there?
A: There are a total of 16 GFs [GFs with abilities] and the

salary. You will get your salary, once Squall has become an
official SeeD member after Dollet's test at Disc 1. The SeeD level
will change if you do any of following:
SeeD Test
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Method Effect
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Answering SeeD tests with correct answers. Access Increase
SeeD test from Tutorial menu --> TEST menu. SeeD level.
Continue with the story of the game Increase
SeeD level.
Finish Train sequence in Disc 1 upon first try SeeD level
+1
Walking around the world map, field terrains without Decrease
doing anything. SeeD level
-------------------------------------------------------------------
SeeD levels do not increase every time. In fact, it increases
based on the number of steps that Squall walk on the terrains.
Hence, do not try to not overdo it as it will decrease your SeeD
level.
The higher SeeD level, the more cash [in gil] that you will
receive each time. For the test answers, refer to the walkthrough
for disc 1.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. I have seen a UFO moving around in a random battle and nothing
happens.. What was that?
A: It is the UFO Sighting Incident. There are four sighting spots
which is being marked on the world map found at
<http://risland.virtualave.net>. Just go there with Diablo's
Enc-None and move around to have a random battle. For more
details, refer to the World Tour under the Disc 3 Walkthrough.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Why I can't convert 100x Curse Spikes into Dark Matter through GF
Siren's Tool-RF, in order learn Quistis' last Limit Break,
Shockwave Pulsar?
A: In order to do that, GF Siren must reach LV 100. Otherwise, you
will not be able to do the refinement. As for the help in getting
Curse Spikes, you need to defeat the Imp, Forbidden or Malboro.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. Is it true that you can't have both items obtained from stealing
and defeat monsters?
A: Yes. You can get only get one of the items. For example, let's
says you encountered a battle with 2x Adamantoises, you defeat
them without any characters using the Mug command. You will get
the item won from battle, such as Adamantine, Whisper, Orichalons
based on Squall's level.
If you mug any of the Adamantoises, you will DEFINATELY NOT get
Adamantine [which can only be obtained by defeating both
Adamantoises]. Instead, you will get other items such as Whispers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. How do I get Squall's ultimate weapon and Limit Break, Lion Heart?
A: To get Squall's ultimate weapon, you must have the following
items:
1x Adamantine
3x Dragon Fang
12x Pulse Ammo
<< Recommended Methods >> - these are the easiest methods
Adamantine - you can get this by defeat Adamantoises found shores
of Dollet, Long Horn Island [to find the location of Long Horn
Island, view the world map at http://risland.virtualave.net].
Dragon Fang - head towards Trabia area where you find the Shumi
Village. Note that from the world map's point of view, you will
find a row of mountains behind the village. Just walk closely
against mountains and you will encounter Blue Dragons. Defeat it
to get Dragon Fang.
Pulse Ammo - you need to get Energy Crystal. Get 20x Elynole's card
via card playing and you can convert them into 2x Energy Crystals
through Quezacotl's Card-Mod RF. Next convert the Energy Crystals
through Ifrit's Ammo-RF. You will get 20x Pulse Ammo.
Now go to any of the junk shops found in the game and pay 2000 gil
to remodel Squall's gunblade into Lion Heart. I have explained in
more details under the Ultimate Weapon Upgrading section.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. Where are the Islands closest to Heaven / Hell?
A: It is kind of difficult to explain using words. You can get find
the locations of them on a world map at my website
<http://risland.virtualave.net/map.html>.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. I can't locate the Deep Sea Research Center! Where can I find it?
A: To locate the Deep Sea Research Center, you need the Ragnarok
airship. Pilot the airship to the extreme low-left corner of the
world map.
Move the Ragnarok low by press Down button. When you move the
Ragnarok, you should see water splashing... Next navigate around
that corner and you should find the Deep Sea Research Center. If
you have any problems, get the world map mentioned in the above
URL.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Why is there a screen showing "censored" when I used the Devour
Command?
A: It was just like that! ^_^;
------------------------------------------------------------------------
13. Question on Card Games
A: Well, it consists of a huge portion of my e-mails. Here is a
section for it:
Rare Cards - it is true that there is only one version of rare
cards, not after time compression has occurred. To get back the
lost rare cards, you need to defeat the CC Group Members at
Ragnarok airship in Disc 4. (provided that you have defeat them
in Disc 2.). You can get them back even after you have refined the
card using Quezacotl's Card-Mod.
Card Queen - the Card Queen is really tough as she changes the
card rules and moves from areas to areas, which made her an
extremely tough opponent. If you need more help, get FF8 FAQ
Part II at http://www.gamefaqs.com and refer to the Card Queen's
Side Quest.
Obtaining cards - besides getting it by winning the card game,
you can also get cards by defeating enemies or using the card
command to convert dying enemies into cards [does not work on
BOSS and human beings]
Card Rules - It will be very difficult to explain the rules in
a few sentences, hence there is a need to read the Card section
of FF8 FAQ Part II.
Abolish a Card Rule - a lot of gamers get frustrated regarding
the random rule as it will force you into a bad situation in the
card game. To abolish that rule, you can either play in a region
where there is no such rules. One perfect example is Balamb area.
Rules will be added as soon as you started in an area where there
are new rules.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
14. Tough Battles - answers found at my Monsters FAQ @ GameFAQs
A: It seems that a lot of people are having trouble regarding combat
in FF8. There are a few reasons for the toughness and one of them
is that monsters levelling up as your character does. There are
few methods to be stronger than your enemy:
The hints are:
- by remodelling the characters' weapons
- get stronger spells via item refining.
You can get a lot of rare items via cards. This means if you want
an easy life in the game, play cards often!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
15. Can I get into the cities during Disc 4?
A: There is no way that you can get into the cities in Disc 4. Those
barriers do not allow you to make contact with the city. I know
the following question will definitely pop up if this happens...
* how do I remodel my weapons? - you can remodel your weapons by
using GF Tonberry's Call Shop or Call Junk Shop menu ability via
the Ability menu.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
16. I have sold the Magical Lamp. Is there any other way to get it?
A: Finally found the answers for this... You can't draw Diablos from
any of the bosses [bosses at Lunatic Pandora and Boss Sphinxaur in
Ultimecia's Castle]. Once you sold it, you got to reset if you
don't own a Pocketstation or Gameshark. It is still possible to
complete the game without GF Diablos, but it will definitely be
tougher.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
17. Where are weapon monthly magazines?
A: You don't need these items as it is compulsory to remodel your
characters' weapon. In fact, the weapon's name will appear in the
Junk Shop's menu once you have obtained its requirements. Here is a
short list of weapon magazines:
Weapon Monthly March - you will get this by defeating Elvoret at
Dollet's Communication Tower in Disc 1.
Weapon Monthly April - you will get this from Squall's desk after
completing the sequence in Training
Center. (after the ball dance)
Weapon Monthly May - you can find this in the sewers while
controlling Rinoa. Refer to walkthrough for
more information.
Weapon Monthly June - defeat BGHZ51F2 at Missile Base
Weapon Monthly July - found it in Balamb Garden's Training Center
after Disc 2.
Weapon Monthly August - found it near the Gargoyle in Trabia
Garden.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
18. Why I can't get the second vase piece (found at the statue) in
Winhill?
A: Well, this is really my error and thanks to those whom have help me
in solving this and that is you really need to have Irvine in your
party. I guess it was perhaps due to the itching hands of
Irvine ^_^;) Remember the time when he messes up the guns in Zell's
room [for those whom have Irvine in your party]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
19. Where can I locate the Tomb of Unknown King?
A: It seems that this type of question is one of hardiest for me to
answer. Imagine explaining the location using words. It was
actually located on a peninsula, which is northeast from Deling. The
tomb is quite small in size and if you still have the problem, get
the world map found at <http://risland.virtualave.net>.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
20. How do I use the character's Limit Breaks?
A: First of all, your characters need to get to "Crisis" conditions.
It will be fulfilled when:
- the character's HP turns red/yellow
- Aura is being cast on the character
Next to use the Limit Break, just tap Circle button (menu button)
and you will eventually see a golden triangle on the right side of
"Attack" or "Mug". Press right and you will be able to execute the
Limit Break.
General Tip on getting Aura.
Aura is a magic that allows your character to get Limit Breaks
easily. To get Aura magic, you need to get Fury Fragments which
can be mugged from Blue Dragon found at the mountains near Shumi
Village. [you don't need to stand on the mountain, just go near
it]. Next just convert the Fury Fragment into 5x Aura magic
through Leviathan's Supt Mag-RF
------------------------------------------------------------------------
21. How do I return back to the Lunatic Pandora after I have finished
the "Ragnarok crash scene" in Disc 3?
A: You can choose to exit the Pandora after your Ragnarok has made
its way to the Lunatic Pandora in Disc 3. To exit, just to talk to
Selphie. From there, you can enjoy yourself for the quests or do
some level up. After you are done, proceed to the bridge [or
controls room] and talk to Selphie and you will be back at the
Lunatic Pandora!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
22. Is it possible to do the Lion Heart Limit Break each time once you
have acquired the Lion Heart gunblade?
A: No. The occurence of the Lion Heart Limit Break depends on chance.
You can't control it. But Lion Heart seems to appear more
frequently, once the entire party is down to critical status.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
23. How do I get Limit Breaks for every characters?
A: Squall - Upgrade his gunblade and Squall will learn new Limit
Breaks. [see Part II for more details.]
Quistis - Get Blue Magic Items [refer to Part II item bestiary on
how to get them] and use it on Quistis.
Zell - Get Combat Kings and select the item and Zell will learn
the new Limit Breaks automatically.
Selphie - Get it from her Limit Breaks. While you are choosing the
type of spells, you can find her Limit Breaks [including
those that are not uncovered.]. Cast it and Selphie will
have that Limit Breaks.
Rinoa - Get Pet Pals and select the item. Next check the status
screen and select the limit break that you wish to teach
Angelo. Hence walk around on the terrain for a while.
Once the gauge has built up, Rinoa will learn the Limit
Break!
Irvine - Get the Ammo and he will have new Limit Breaks. Some of
the rare ammo are quite hard to get.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
24. How do I enhance my character's statistics?
A: Through the junction system. The junction system is a system that
could enfuse magic to your character's atttributes, hence making
them stronger. See Basic Tutorial for more information. BTW, the
effects of Junction are affected by the following:
. Number of magic: The more you have, the better the effect of the
junction system.
. Types of spell: The stronger the spell you have, the better the
effect the junction has on the character.
Junction also allows your characters to equip commands and
abilities. There is no accessories/armor in the game. Please read
the Basic Tutorial thoroughly. You need to have junction abilities
[i.e. abilities that are ended with "-J"] for boosting your
character's statistics.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
25. How do I upgrade my weapons in FF8?
A: You can't buy new weapons instead you can tune them up through Junk
Shops. But in order to do this, you need to have specific
ingredients such as M-Stone Piece, Sharp Spike, Dragon Fang, etc.
Of course, not everything in the world is free. You need to pay a
small sum to upgrade them to new models [you can choose to upgrade
or downgrade.] Everytime you attempt to remodel the weapon, the
ingredients will be used up. If you want to upgrade back to the
same weapon, you need to get new ingredients. To upgrade a weapon in
Disc 4, just get GF Doomtrain [Call Junk Shop menu ability] and do
the following:
1) Activate your menu.
2) Select the Ability header.
3) Select Call Junk Shop
4) Do what you normally do at Junk Shops.
It's pretty simple huh? BTW, don't try to force your way in the
towns, as it is impossible!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
26. How I mug an item?
A: This one is pretty hard to explain if you don't know anything about
junction commands or abilities. First of all, you need to get a GF
ability called "Mug" [from Bahamut or Diablos, requires 200 AP to
master]. Next equip GF Bahamut or Diablos with the mastered Mug
ability. After you have equipped the commands, you will be able to
select the type of character/party abilities. Choose Mug and add it
to one of the ability slots. If you equip the ability, you should
see the attack command is being replaced with Mug. If that happens,
you are on the right track.
Just go to a random battle and look for the monster that you want
to steal an item from. Remember to watch for the top status bar
after your character has performed the attack.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
27. How do I junctioned commands?
A: Before I start this, I need to explain that GFs are extremely
important as they worked like Materia in FF7. Without them, you
can't have other commands besides attack. First of all, you need to
get a GF. [If you have seen through the ability list in Part II, you
should noticed that all the 16 GFs have Magic, GF and Draw.]
To equip a command, do the following step-by-step and make sure that
you are in the main menu.
1) Select Junction from the main menu
2) Select the character who you want to junction GFs with.
3) Select Junction command from the Junction Menu. Select the GFs
that you want to equip with. Press Triangle once you are done.
4) You should be brought to the Auto screen if you have magic in
that character's magic inventory. Choose either Atk, Def or Mag.
If your character don't have any magic, you will be brought to
the Ability sub-menu directly. Press Triangle once you are done.
5) At the ability screen, you should see the command list of the
character with the slots along with ability slots. On the right
is the list of commands available (if the cursor is pointing at
either one of the three command slots, they are found under the
Attack command) and list of abilities available (if the cursor
is pointing at either one of ability slots.) Just pick and choose
from the list. Duplicate commands will only appear once. [For
example, as I had mentioned earlier, that all 16 GFs have the 3
basic commands, GF, Magic and Draw. These commands will appear
only once even if you have more than 1 GFs equipped.] Press
Triangle once you are done.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
28. Where do General Caraway go after he had brought you to the Gateway?
A: It is pretty funny that I got such e-mails more than twice ^_^;).
After Caraway have move away from the Gateway, head towards the left
side of the screen. You should be brought to the front screen where
you see crowds and the gateway. Notice that there is no people on the
left side of the crowd. Just walk down and exit from the screen. You
will meet Caraway there.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
29. Who is Squall's father?
A: This may be a piece of spoiler [heck, anyway by typing out the FAQ,
I had already spoiled the game...]. There is my evidence to support
that Laguna Loire is Squall's father!
A) If you re-visit Winhill, you will found out that the photo of the
family (Laguna, Raine, "Squall" and Ellone) is missing. The photo
is found at Raine's House [next to the pub]
B) Laguna has probably left Squall in the hands of Edea before
leaving for his journey to rescue Ellone. You had see sequences of
Squall standing in the rain feeling bored and Laguna talking to
Edea... (btw, this may be wrong as it is my own assumption)
C) If you talk to Ward or Kiros, you make get more information leaked
out about Squall and Laguna [that's a pretty good hint by the
way...]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
30. Have you heard any rumours about FF8?
A: Definitely yes! Of course, FF8 is such a great RPG and there are
also have some loopholes just like FF7 and so you can expect some
rumours about the game.
A) Getting Cloud Strife
Well, I myself is also a fan of Cloud. But I don't have sufficient
proof that Cloud is in the game. But based on gameshark, it is not
possible to have Cloud. This always works btw. But here are some
rumours [they seems a bit reasonable...]
1) Have 16 gameovers at the Island closest to Hell. Upon the 16th
continue, Cloud will appear...
My Reply: This is definitely not true!
2) During the battle against the Iron Clad [the BOSS at the missile
base], you can mug an item from the BOSS which allows you to
summon Cloud Strife! [Cloud will appears and do his Omnislash
Limit Break!]
My Reply: Haven't tested it yet as my party was too strong...
I have killed that stupid Iron Clad with a few attacks...
B) Getting GF Griever/ a hidden GF
You can get GF Griever in Lunatic Pandora. You must have all the
weapons, 666 items or something to that nature. Also in Balamb,
next to Zell's house, an old man makes reference to an old story/
legend.
My Reply:
. About the ridiculous 666 item:
This isn't true as it is impossible to have 666 of an item type.
So give up your hopes... [That 666 items requirement is actually
taken from Occult Fan III, which refers to GF Doomtrain ^_^; If
you break the numbers up along with other issues, you should get
6x Steel Pipes, 6x Malboro Tentacles, 6x Remedy+]
. An old man...
Well, I guessed this may be partly right... I'm not sure about
this anyway. But since half of the rumour is wrong, it is just
as good as the rumour is false.
C) Getting Seifer after Dollet Mission
I know that there will be a lot of Seifer's fan hoping that this
could be true. Well, I have recently received a rumour regarding
this...
Luckily for us, FAQ writers for FF8, Rinoa did not die in the game...
Otherwise we may be facing problems like resurrecting Rinoa... *Phew*
I have excluded some of rumours to save me from e-mails probing...
BTW, here is a point of advice from me and that is don't be cheated by
rumours. (Provided that there is sufficient proof to prove it... at
least a screenshot of the rumour. Like showing Cloud fighting against
any monster that's included in FF8.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
31. Why can't I equip Card Mod-RF on my character?
A: You can't equipped that on a character. There are several types of
abilities and below is a short summary on the abilities types:
Type How to use it?
Character You need to equip it to enable its effect. Go to
Junction menu and choose the fourth tab, Abilities.
GF Automatically takes effect once the GF has mastered
the ability. Note that the learnt ability only applies
to that GF, which has the ability in its slot.
Junction It allows some of the Junction options to be enable on
the Junction status screen. For example, if the
equipped GFs does not have any Str-J, the Str option
will be greyed out. There is no need to equip the
ability, just equiped GF to enable its effect.
Menu One of the abilities that can't be equipped. You can
access this ability under Ability sub-menu of the main
menu. [Card Mod-RF is a type of menu ability]
Party Same as character ability, need to equip, followed the
same method as character.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
32. Is it possible to defeat the BOSS at lower levels compared to the
statistics that you have given in the FAQ?
A: Of course, you don't need to go to that extreme ^_^;). This is one
of the reasons which makes FF8 different from FF7. Monsters,
including BOSSES get level up as your characters level up [in
proportion to Squall's level.], which means the higher Squall's
level is, the more HP or level will be the BOSS.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
33. How do I get Mog's Amulet?
A: This is one time that can only be achieved by playing the Choco
World. Besides, I have stressed on this many times...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
34. How do I get more Rosetta Stones?
A: To get more Rosetta Stones, you can either use the refinement method
or search method. Rosetta Stones can be refined using a Menu
Ability. [please refer to Menu abilities, FF8 Part II FAQ]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
35. How do I get Zell's Armageddon Fist?
A: This is actually a move that invented by one of FF8 gamers, Kaze
Yagami [beats me why everyone choose to use to this name...]. It is
actually a chain between Punch Rush, Booya, Punch Rush, Booya....
[I guess you should know that flow...]. It is named this, because of
its killing effect.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
36. How do I exit from Ultimecia's Castle in Disc 4?
A: A simple analogy... How do you exit from your home? Of course,
through the door! or the window [unless you are Spiderman or theft,
otherwise I have no comments ^_^]. Just go back to the main hall
and exit the door. Go to the chain and choose any of the doors to
get back to the world.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
37. Must I followed the story sequence based on the walkthrough?
A: YES! All except for World Tours [or sub-quest which other FAQ
writers call it.]. If you don't follow in order, like going to
Galbadia Garden before you have finished up with Timber story
sequence, you will find Galbadia Soldiers surrounding the building.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
38. Does Ultimecia's castle contains every single enemy?
A: YES! You can find virtually all the monsters that is available in
the game. But some of them don't appear that frequently like
Malboros, Tonberries and Elynoles. I have managed to encounter an
Elynole on my trip up the clock tower...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
39. When and where is the best place to level up all your characters?
A: It depends only on your character current level. IMO, I guess it is
best not to stress on your character's current level, as certain
enemies are really a killer even it is only a level 15 monsters.
The area where you get most EXP is from the enemies in the Island
closest to Hell and Heaven, don't know where it is? Refer to the
maps found at my website <http://risland.virtualave.net>!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
40. No Alexander, No Doomtrain? --> Getting Remedy +
A: Getting Doomtrain is one of hardiest feature in FF8, you need to get
in pursuit of items and met its requirement to get it. First of all,
you need to get all the requirements of 6x Steel Pipes, 6x Malboro
Tentacles and 6x Remedy+ (!). After gotten the requirements, use
the item "Solomon's Ring" to get GF Doomtrain. The key link between
Alexander and Doomtrain is the requirement of Remedy+. If you don't
have Remedy+, you can't get GF Doomtrain. To get Remedy+, you need
to use Med LV Up [menu ability] to convert 60x Remedy [which can be
bought from shops]. As for the other requirements, please refer to
the walkthrough or FF8 FAQ Part II.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
41. Gilgamesh interrupted my fight against Adel and kill Rinoa!
A: One comments: The gamer is really unlucky ^_^;) You really needs to
depend on luck and pray hard that Gilgamesh does not appear.
Actually, IMO, I guess you need to make sure that at least one of
members has most of the HP as this reduces the appearance of
Gilgamesh.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
42. How to get back Odin after I have gotten Gilgamesh?
A: Sorry pals, as there is no way to get back Odin after Gilgamesh...
Odin is already killed in half by Seifer in the battle at Lunatic
Pandora [Disc 3], that's why Odin can never appear, beside its
sword is already taken by Gilgamesh ^_^; so how is it going to
attack? Besides in FF8, there is no lance for Odin...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
43. How does the Rare Item takes it effect?
A: It is one of doubts which still remains a mystery for me...
Typically, Rare Item is party ability and takes effect after you
have finished the random battles and just increase the "chances" [
I don't how it was being measured, but according to my gameplay, it
seems to give me more GF type items and rarer items, but decreases
the rate of junk items (which is more cheaper...)]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
44. Why I have never found Selphie's Limit Break <The End>?
A: IMO, you need to take a lot of patience in getting this. The End
appears about 1 out of 100 tries while using the Slots. You need to
press "Do over" [1st option] and switch and switch... until you
found the spell... But if you miss it, it WILL take you more longer
to find it again in next try! Besides you can't use The End at your
will since it is an instant killer spell!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
45. Is it possible to complete the game without all GFs?
A: Of course, the completion of the game depends on your will. If you
want to have an easy fight, I would recommend you to get all GFs. In
other words, it is not necessary to get all GFs to complete the
game. The aim of this walkthrough is just to give you a clearer
picture.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Important Notes
Things can't be done without a gameshark/pocketstation:
- Get Apocalypse magic before the fight against True form of Ultimecia.
- Get another Magical Lamp besides the one you get it from Cid.
- Get Ribbon/Mog's Amulet/Friendship item.
- Rare GF Abilities such as Supt Mag-RF, Discount, Awarness, etc.
Things that never can be done...
- Enter towns in Disc 4
- Find the gateways to the chain road in front of Ultimecia's Castle
before Disc 4.
- Find the white SeeD Ship after you return from space visit.
- Read the Girl Next Door (it is a junk item...)
