tantarian

[cloud21zidane16]

i was just wondering whether you defeated tantarion(big book) on disc 2,3 or never, i always defeat him on disc 2 but a lot of sites ive been on says never battle him on disc 2 as he is way to hard

[Quindiana Jones]

Wooo I'm the other 50% again!

He was easy with Steiner.

I beat him on disk 2 most of the time I play through... but if I feel lazy I will wait till disk three that way there is no time limit. The only real reason to beat it on disk 2 is so you get the running shoes earlier which allow everybody to learn auto haste.

It use to always be Disc 3, but only because I used to physically attack Tantarian, rather than use Magic, so doing it on Disc 2 was a lot tougher. It's possible to beat him on Disc 2 if you stick to Magic, but then you've got to watch out for the timer.

I was hardcore, I did him on Disc 2, but only after powering up Thievery.

[Crimson]

funny, i found him easier on disc 2, i had steiner attack with his magic sword with vivi, zidane healer, i had vivi use bio via oak staff, i forgot wat freya did :P

btw, i did not cheat for the oak staff, it is obtainable on disc 1 through chocobo hot and cold (the only chocobo game in any ff i like)

well youre supposed to find him in disc 3 during the attack on alexandria... in the library the farthest left bookcase.

ive never really tried. i think i should next time i play through the game though. ive never beaten tantarian or ozma (ive beate hades but thats not much to brag about.) and i intend to. the only problem is that my disk 2 is broken and i need a new one.

I fought it on Disc Three. Killed a damn killer book for no reward...though I don't no why I was surprised.

Same here.

I'm not totally sure, but I think it was on Disc 2 when I beat him. I mean, when I got to the Alexandian Castle on Disc 3, I usually just head straight to rescue Dagger and Eiko. It took me quite long to even realize you can explore the Castle after you've landed there.

[Crossblades]

I could never beat him:(

[Christmas]

I can't bear to kill such a cute little being. :(

I've always beated Tantarian on disc 2. Or then when you have the first chance to do it. I think it's pretty tough. I have to use at least two elixirs every time. I didn't know you can beat Tantarian on disc 3. Shame. I've had Amarant, Zidane, Vivi and Freya everytime with me in that battle - is there even possible to have other characters?
