ff8 instant death moves

dukenukem · June 23rd, 2002, 07:14

i bagn playing ff8 again today and maxed all my character's at level 100,man forgot what a bad idea that is,especially for the bosses starting in disc 3 and then in ultimecia's castle,started playing through on both those discs,had them all maxed out to be resistant against those death attacks but somehow that stupid boss where you get eden always manages to blow me away about every time,geesh.Took me 55times to beat that sob and again i would get slaughtered against that other boss in ultimecia's castle,that stupid horse guy that uses meteo when you fight him at the fountain area and haven't managed to beat the punk yet on epsxe,man i managed to beat him easy when playing it on the psx,must be the keyboard giving me bad luck,any one else get blown away like that?

in your elemental defense junction ultima, fulllife, life, and shell and if you have max stats for vit and spirit even meteor will only damage you for less than 100 and dont forget to use a ribbon for each of your character, you can get a lot of ribbon in chocobo world and if you want to get revenge to the bad guys that give you a hardtime in ff8 you can use my savegame all characters are at max stat except for 2 stat the lnk is here somewhere in the board

REi_FoX · June 23rd, 2002, 10:46

heres a simple trick to build up any characters stats... beat every enemy in a few rounds here...

first dont use the character you want to build up ex. squall...

always have him dead... so he wont level up until you got a GF that has a strength + like ifrit and magic +

junction it to him and level him up to 100

you'll see that even if you dont junction any magic to squalls strength he'll hit 7000-8000 per hit in his limit break giving a maximum damage of 759000 damage!!!

then junction what iran told you to do...

dont use GF its WORTHLESS TOTALLY!!! i finished the game casting them only once of course just to see them...

If you have lots of that Aura spell youre alomst invincible with lionheart. The game's unbalanced because you could use your (limitbreak,trance,whatever was it) whenever its your turn with Aura. Its a cheap way to beat bosses , but its there to use anyway

Quatro · June 23rd, 2002, 18:23

You can get aura on the forbidden island... but be sure that you are on a high level to foght the enemy there

another useful trick is never to junction
any to elemental attack
you might accidentally heal your opponent
nothing is more annoying than when
your most powerful char attacks are healing
the opposition

There's an easy way to get auras. Just go to the "island closest to hell" (western island on the map). There hundreds of hidden draw points, some with auras. Just keep walking and pressing X to find them. (equip no-enconters to make this job easier.)

thats a harder way!!!

this is the easiest way...

first go to esthar to the shop buy an item there that cost about 5000 or less (forgot the name) convert it with tool command by siren you'll see he can convert it into AURA STONES AND THEN CONVERT IT TO AURA THAT EASY!!!

about money?

heres the trick battle mesmerize loacated at selfies garden...

then mug it got 8 mesmerize blade refine it...

come up with 40 mega potions sell it for 1 to 5000 THAT EASY!!!

i found this trick playing with the refine thing of siren... try it....

Yeah.. Don't waste your time fighting and drawing those spells only if you have to.. Use your tool and other magic and item skills to make as many aura spells as you need.. I was able to get 100 aura spells for all characters.. You can also get many holy wars by using your tools skills combined with other item mod skills.. I had 100 of em by the end of the game.. The trick is to know which items can mod into other items and which magic can mod into items and where to find them. Sometimes monsters drop them, and sometimes you can morph monsters into them... You can also mod cards into rare items.. I played the card battle a lot in the game.. Beat everyone even in the forth disk against the card queen with all rules enabled.. Remember, you can also mod items over and over.. Change an item into one thing, then change that item you just created into something else.. I killed those last nasties by first setting auto haste to everyone in the party, all characters at max stats, and junction a high power magic to speed and strenght.. Then when in the fight, cast aura on everyone.. Then cast holy war.. Then just keep skipping characters until one of them gets a limit(doesn't take very long since everyone is fast and on autohaste).. Easy win.. 4 to 5 powerful limits will do..

yes, what is lacking would be the cool mini games of FF7.

That card game makes up for most of the minigames in FF7.. It's pretty good once you start winning the rare and powerful cards..

Some of the mini games in FF7 was too short anyways and too easy.. The card game in FF8 actually takes some skills early on in the game.. Later, when you have all the powerful cards, it gets rather easy..

But FF7's minigame was SO much fun like the snowboarding things and many more. Sometimes, the card game makes me bored when I lose some of my valued cards, forcing me to use savestate during card games!

I agree and I think that ff9 has the
worst mini game ever created
I am not referring to the chocobo quest
but to the card game
it is so primitive that you barely need strategy
skillsto win all you need is luck

I agree with you on that one about the card game... but its fun

It be much better if they display the hp
of the card how the hell can you plan your move
if you did not know its hit points

whats the hp for... there are numbers and letters representing each card. If you want to know if there high or low, consult a walkthrough abotu te card game, that should clear it up.
