I have reached the point in the game in which the gardens collide and invade after a narrow victory in the previous section of the game I am worried that this could be a real pain if I reach a boss here and am unable to defeat it. Therefore, I would like to ask for a bit of advice on how to prepare for what is coming in a general way, without actually revealing what I will face.
Problems that may be resolved:
1) Weapon upgrades. I've gotten Squall's flame-looking sword, Zell's second weapon, Riona's Rising Sun, and everyone else has their initial equipment. This seems, relative to the other FFs I've played (All before VIII), that I am behind where I should be. Is this an issue? Will upgrades be of great use? I have the designs, but not the materials.
2) GFs and junctioning. Everything is always junctioned to someone. The problem is, I seem to have one set up that results in decent damage (300-500+), with everyone else floating around 100 or less. I am assuming this has something to do with both a need to draw more spells for other characters, and a need to get GFs with the appropriate commands to add to attack. What should I look for? My GF "picture chart" has no holes in it, though I am going back a few steps to recover Pandemonium, which I missed somehow, and Diablos and Brothers I got later than I should have, so they lag behind. I am assuming I need to add to Str, and look for elemental attack ability paired with a good spell or some such. If so, I'm unsure what spell to use. My "decent" damage set up uses one of the second tier elementals at 100 paired to attack. I've only enough to supply one character as such, so in any event, I'll have to go around drawing. Any advice would be appreciated, as I've a long boring process ahead of me, and would hate to waste my time on something redundant or useless.
Thanks for any advice.
