I love selphie, Quitis, Squall, the snippper the princess.
Seifer is a major jerk so is the empress.
The only bad guys that are bigger jerks them are that guy from the early games that posioned the lake water.
Seperoth is definetly the biggest, smartest of all the jerkss that are villians in the franchise. by how ive seen him potrayed in all the music videos.
some of sub quest I think your forced to do. Like early in disk 2 I think your forced to watch the concert that Sophie and the others put one I think. I know getting diablos and the brothers summons are opoitonal boss fights.
...I generally leave ATB to wait... cause enemies cant do anything while your selecting magic and stuff... so you can also run while your doing that... and it comes in handy when you NEED to run... like from a T-Rex (Btw, some of them carry Ga level Fire/Thunder spells, good way to get powerful early on without Lionheart, I'm at lv 40 before Ifrit.)
@L3onH3ar7 In his case, he pressed O instead, since he switched the buttons.
By the way, train on the enemies at the beach near the fire caverns, the enemies give 3 AP each, and come in sets of two every time, which gives 6 AP. AP is used to make your GFs learn skills.
You should learn SumMag +10/20/30% and Boost before the SeeD invasion of Dollet to kill a monster that can give your GFs 50 AP each time you kill it (not counting initial battle)
There are a couple of subplots you can get started in Balamb Garden as well. Go to the Cafeteria to see a somewhat humourous introduction to Zell and the Disciplinary Committee, but the objective is to talk to the Cafeteria lady on the left choosing the 3rd option everytime. The other, is going to the library and talking to the Girl with a Pigtail (it's actually a french braid, but oh well).
Also, I prefer junctioning Shiva to Squall for two reasons: 1) Quistis' limit break is magic based; Quezacotl has the Mag-J ability, 2) I like to go the No-Levelling way so Squall's main intent is to be the one that takes out Ifrit since you control when you want a critical and Quistis will be in charge of keeping them healed.
The enemies level is based on average of your entire party. That's all... 6 (?) characters, not just the 3 you use in battle. Needless to say, this can make the battles _even easier_ than it already is if you get 3 characters to level 100 and leave the other 3 at their base levels. That means that (with the exceptions of about 3 bosses; Ifrit, Ultima Weapon, Omega Weapon. The first is always level 6, the latter two are always level 100) all enemies will be around level 55.
It was really nice how you edited out the Quistis Junction explanation, thats one of those things you can't skip in the game and I hate it so much lol.
Ah, FFVIII. The Final Fantasy I never finished. :/ I got to the final boss, and died. And never bothered to try again. maybe this LP will get me going again.
ooo i forgot to say one more thing thereee an occult mag in the library i dont actually know if youve got it but it allows you to get hints on gettin doomtrain who allows the weapon upgrade ability thing i forgot to get first time lol
oh ya forgot about the occult mag lol. I don't think its there till later on though, anyway I already know how to get Doomtrain :D I know a bit about FF8, I just don't know it as well as I do FF6, we'll see how things go :D
Actually it is there right away, and you should probably mention that when you draw-cast a spell the damage or healing is random. Oh and there is a hidden esuna draw point in the train tunnel were you can get i stock of and another esuna draw point in the library.
I knew about the one in the train station, didn't remember the one in the library. I was actually gonna go get the train station one in episode 3, but I decided to wait till I actually have to go to Balamb town to pick it up I'll look for the one in the library latr
hi 5 doing ff8 im plyin it at the moment started 2 days ago. im at the missile base. and how do you grind for your magic? do you use card refinery into magic refinery or do you just use the items recieved and tents etc.?
Mostly I just look for enemies that have the spells I want and just spam draw. I sometimes though draw 100 level 1 spells and use the magic level up ability 2 thunder = 1 thundara ect
the monsters in the game only match the weakest ally you have, thats why i had squal as lvl 80 and everyone else 16 and 20s

Well, I guess there's supposed to be 6 charas at any time, since one character is in your party as long as another one is "taken out"
jecapeter 2 years ago
They do not level if they are not equipped. Just so you know. And EXP is split between how many GFs you have junctioned to the character.
