Final Fantasy VIII Tonberry King & Tonberry Optional GF Battle

Ok, the quest for the final GF! I got Doomtrain right before this after getting the Steel Pipes and Malboro Tentacles I needed to use the Soloman Ring.

The recording starts with a battle against a regular Tonberry. I made short work of him with a Renzokuken, then the Tonberry King drops in to avenge his fallen friends (20 Tonberry's). For the purpose of this battle, I summoned Cactuar and Eden, just to show their animations. I also tried to summon Doomtrain, but he gets killed with a "It's Sharp!" attack and killed, and you hear my frustration, lol. After that, I casted a meltdown and killed him with physical attacks. Then you get to see the funny following scene that makes him join your party. Enjoy!

Are Tonberry's the only enemy in that area?

When you move closer to Odin, there are different enemies. I know there are Forbiddens. I don't recall what other enemies are there though. But you'll only encounter Tonberry's on the first screen (and maybe the second).

what level are ur characters?

also u got eden and bahamut already?

wow~!

[blakstang98]

For this battle, Selphie is at 20, Squall is at 36 and Zell is at 23 for levels I mean. Yes, I try to get Eden and Bahamut as quickly as possible to get them leveled up as high as I can while I level my own party. Cactuar is a must early too because he is only a level 20, but Tonberry is a level 30 so I get him last.

which disk are you on when u get all the gfs? Diak 2 or 3?

[blakstang98]

I get them all on disc 3. You can get Tonberry on disc 2, once the Garden is mobile, but you can't reach Bahamut, Eden, Cactuar or Doomtrain until disc 3. Getting Tonberry on disc 2 would mean you could kill Tonberry's fairly easily without endangering your party. Personally, I get Odin on disc 2, but come back to Centra Ruins on disc 3 after getting the Ragnarok and the other GF's, for the reasons above.

i easyly defeated the them with a lv 34 squall on disk 2 useing his limit break back to back take a total of approx 10000 full only thing was my squall kepy getting hit with 6400 from knife while slepihe and zell was getting hit with 324s

Thanks ^^ I was going to get Odin and Tonberry at the same time, but guess not.

[DJYC21215]

Ok that is good advice considering my Squall is on level 22 and he lacks the spells foud later in the game such as arua and meltdown, plus with only 3000 hp the Tonberry kings knife attacks could kill me pretty easily. I did get oldin however.

[blakstang98]

Yeah, I usually get Eden to deal about 35000 damage when I'm done with the game on full boost.
