The GF Cerberus!

Hello everybody!

This Cerberus thing looks like he's never gonna be defeated :mad:

Can you tell me please how could you beat him? :confused:

I mean his lv. is only 17 & he won't give up no matter what! He's so mean with his 3 big empty heads :eep:

one of the first he tries to do is to cast triple on himself, so when he does, have someone cast dispell on him to remove it. he tries this alot, i believe.

he also beserks you, but just use esuna.

other than that, id try to mug him for his speed-j scroll (i think its speed), and just pound him with meltdown, then physical attacks. also draw out all the triples you can (great to juntion)

its been awhile so i dont know if he has triples at every level. i never remember having any trouble with him, only that i beat him before i can mug from him :)

hes 1 of many ff8 bosses that seem hard on my first play but r a push over on your second.

but yeah, just stop his triple, that is the key thing to do and your be fine. of course auras and meltdowns if u have them that soon r infinitly useful.

Thaaaaaaaaaaaanx alot for u guys I've just beated him :D

Well I have another question, why do I have to collect all of those GFs?
I mean when I fight in battles I need only 3, so why bother? :mad:

Also, what's the use of Siren? I never got used of him at any battle!

You don't have to get all the GFs, they're just very handy.

siren is a GIRL lol, and casts silence on all the enemys but most bosses and hard enemies will be immune. it does damage 2 but very little.

though to be honest all the gfs by the end of the game except eden, cerberus and doomtrain will be of little use in battle. but you need them to master the game,

plus u should get at least 6 to keep your characters junctioned all at once, and the best gfs give wicked junction abilities for your characters in terms of stats and status/elemental protection, as well as refining those cards into items :)

Juctioning GF's also make you more powerful, make you HP go up and give you some awesome ablilites, so thats why its good to get them all, so you can get all there ablilities etc.

Thank you all :D

Then SHE can be useful sometimes, that's better for her :D

Till now I have missed 2 GFs, Alexander and Pandemona, this won't be a problem, will it? :sweatdrop

by the way where's the Sorceress? after I've beated Seifer she disappeared & I think that Squall said something but I didn't notice it :mad:

It shouldn't matter if you have missed those 2 too much. Its all good. Umm it depends where you are up to in the game, if you are at galbadia garden and have just defeated Seifer, go back down the elevator and keep going straight and go to the auditorium, its not to hard to find!

Hope it helps :D

by the way, u can get the pandemona tornado thing on disc 4 from a boss and u HAVENT missed alexander! u can draw it from the edea when u find her.

forgot about that :D yup!

Thank you very much rusty angel & aeris, that really helped me alot, I found Edea & I'm still trying to beat her!

the battle with her is really very long & after all, I'm the one who lose :mad:

Any advice?

I remember that bastard dog..... I lost on my first try too ;_;. I can't remember what I did exactly but I remember leveling up a whole lot (i think to 30?).

For edea... use cerberus! haste and GFs. I thought fighting edea was much easier than cerberus... maybe because i was more prepared? *shrugs*

Well it's good for u that u lost on ur first try only, actually, I was able to beat him at my 11th try:D

oh really? I can't wait to try it :D I'll tell u if it worked or not!

Thanks Kami :)

On my first time he was hard until Angelo used Invincible Moon.

On my second time, Zell had a Str of 255... one hit KO. Just make sure to Mug his Spd-J Scroll
