Just any major tips you guys can think of im all for ;)
Just a question though, i cant remember why this isnt showing up...but like Quezacotl has the skill SumMag+10% as complete, yet with his GF equipped its not showing up as a skill to select...what am i forgetting here?
just download a walk-through if u get stuck
SumMag+10% doesnt need to be equipped. It automatically increases your summon magic. I think...

Wow, I haven't posted here in a while, but this should make rubah happy.
Firstly, don't forget to get your starter deck of cards. I cannot stress this enough. Not only is the card game the best sidequest of the game, it's probably the second best sidequest of any of the installments (Behind FFIX's Chocobo Hot/Cold) Play cards. A lot. I would suggest that you send the Queen of Cards from Balamb to Dollet while you're there by losing Minimog (I think) and then resending her to Balamb using the Sacred card. By doing so, when you finally reacg Deling City, you can talk to the guy dressed in black, and you'll be able to get the Kiros card (Which can be modded so that you can get 3 Auto-Hastes).
Next, always make Boost your first GF ability learned. It helps sooooooooo much, especially if you're a GF user.
Also, I suggest never using Triple magic. Cerberus can be used for that later. More importantly, it's my personal favorite Atk Junction magic, and can be obtained fairly early, and fairly easily.
Other than that, don't forget to draw GFs, Junction properly, and have fun.
The Best thing to remmeber when playing this game is that it sucks, and you shouldn't waste any more time making your brain suffer through it again.
how does it suck? :confused: i hate it when people say stuff like that. Its a great game with many reasons to play.Quote:

It's automatically added to Quezacoatl's summon magic. You can't equip it. You can't equip the Summon HP +%s either, they're applied automatically to the GF that's learned them.Quote:

Forced Plot, crappy Characters, Far to easily abusable, and again, a horribly forced plot. Can't stress that enough.Quote:

And what to you mean, I'd like to see you do better?
basically, play cards, and don't level up much, but do fight to get AP for your GF.
Yea level scaling was what i didnt like the first time i went through this game.
And i think from what i remember that i enjoyed the story, the music etc...i think its just as viable as any other FF to be honest, but im just doing this to refresh my memory and see if i can find a better appreciation for the game.
Do you guys have any particular guides you like to use? I use IGN but sometimes their guides are just not well written, anyone have any suggested ones?
Yeah seriously, cards are the way to go. Just keep a low level, always making sure you have bonuses junctioned to up your stats.
Keep levels low.
1 tent = 10 Curaga, use your first cash on that.
Learn stat-junction abilities first, then refinement abilities, along with card mod.
Refine cards into items
Refine items into magic
Cards to be on the lookout for:
Gayla: Mysterious fluid > Meltdown, and Quistis' Acid
Mesmerize: Mesmerize blade > Regen
Bahamut: 10 refines into 1 Barrier, used for Quistis' Big Guard
Abyss Worm: 1 Windmill > 20 Tornado
Blitz: Dynamo Stone > a few Thundagas
The forced plot makes it interesting!! if you don't know whats happening about SeeD and all that then you won't understand it!! and yes the characters may SEEM crappy but it just they're not as gud as others in other FF's :greenie: and one good tip about FF8 get your GF's to learn the important stuff first!! like 'boost' (that helps) and abiltlys like 'card' (Ques.)if ur planning to play the card games :DQuote:

What can the cards get me, top of the line items?
Oh, I know what was happening with seed. Didn't help make it better.Quote:

Though yes, REfine for a lot of spells to junction and focus on abilities to junction spells to stats. Fight the monsters with the highest AP output for the lowest XP output to maximise your battle prowess. Which monsters these are I don't know.
