Doesn't he have an attack called Maelstrom that can take all your party members to single-digit HPs? Knowing that, he probably doesn't mind having his enemies fight him with full HP since he can just knock their HP down with Maelstrom. :p

Lets just say it's the

1-Rotting guy
2-Turtle thing
3-Huge half naked woman
4-Free healing fool

The 4 elemental weirdos

Hey Cross, long time, no hear![/spam]

I believe Cross is right, Rubicant is honorable, not a fool. He fights with true honor.

EDIT - @Seph1999AD, no, he doesn't have Maelstrom, you're thinking of Behemoths when they conuter magic in this game. He has Glare which deals fire damage and a lot of it.

I remember this guy, yeah.

No. I don't like him. There's absolutely no reason that a "Fiend" of his likes would act this way. It's the kind of character detail that pulls the player out of the story. As impressive as it is for this to be a gentleman villain, it would be far more impressive for somebody like Golbez to have this quality. Not a monster that controls the elemt of fire.

It's wrong. It's absolutely the wrong character to have this character trait, and it's one more reason that FFIV sucked so bad. Everything in this game was just done wrong.

I beg to differ, the fact that Rubicant is a gentlemen gained my interest. It's ironic that such a destructive element is control by such a courtly person. I think Square mean for an element of irony when they developed Rubicant.

I'm with Darth Cid. I found him interesting, and a refreshing change from your typical villian.

He rocked, though I liked Scarmiglion. He felt like a real villian.

indeed.

he was definetly my favourite of the fiends. i dont even perticularly know why hes against you. he does some cool things and heals you before you fight him. so i liked him as a villain.

I also enjoy the fight against him as well. It's the longest of the Emperor fights for me, and it also implements more of the ATB system then the other three fights did in the strategy of the battle.

And, well, his cloak just looks neat. :cat:

Pretty much my thoughts on this. Something about Scarmiglione made him my favorite fiend, though Rubicante is an obvious and very close second.

xD You are my new favorite.

I always thought Rubicant was pretty neat.

His demeanor and character design are what won me over to liking him. And, like Zexy, I too would trek back to the save point, only to be healed by Rubicante anyways...

I concur.

This makes me think that you don't remember the game well enough to have that valid of an opinion. He's a major character, there's no reason you shouldn't remember him. That would be like if I went, "Oh yeah, I remember that Rinoa chick from Final Fantasy 8."

Extremely scary looking? Yes. But he heals you. :spin:
