On disk 3 after you get the Ragnorak but before you go back to Edea's house, is it still possible to fight Marlboros in Esthar? The monsters have already been replaced with the stronger ones from the moon. If not here than is there anywhere I can gight them. I still need some Marlboro tentacles. (Yes, I know it's really spelled Malboros, but meh...)
Is that the one on the left or right?
the right. near esthar.
and it's really malboro. But marlboro is so much more cooler+a statment ;)
just remember your x4statdef junctions- confuse, berserk, sleep, and something else (bio, blind, esuna, death/full life, holy)

They are actually easier to find on Island Closest to Heaven.

I fought all mine on the Island Closest to Hell - they were so powerful, however, I just boosted my Luck stats and waited for Odin to show up, which he did about every other battle or so. He'd vanquish the Malburro, i'd get my tentecles, and I'd save my game and try again. Easy. I ended up with a ton of those things.
Nope, YOU are wrong.Quote:

Im quite sure Ive read/heard somewhere that all enemies/bosses are the same level as your character with the highest levels.
And im almost certain i remember meeting enemies on ICtH that wasnt level 100...Apparently, Im misstaken :-/
Yep, the Island closest to Heaven and Hell are the places to find them. I found there was more on the Island closest to Heaven though.
All but Omega Weapon and the enemies on those 2 islands level with your characters... if you play the PS version.Quote:

Avoid fighting Malboros at all costs! You're better off trying to win them as cards
malboros (marlboros!! thats so cool!) are my favourite baddie in all FFs!! i love them!! :love:
i just went to the islands closest to heaven/hell and mugged! so handy!!
:love: :love: :love: irvine!! :love: :love: :love:
Why? That would take forever!Quote:

Is that so? I always tought that the creatures on the Island Closest to Hell and Heaven are at the same level as the charachters. And that Omega Weapon always was at 100. By the way there doesn't excist a level 100, it's level 99 then. And Malboro's are very very easy. I never had a problem with them after I did the (SPOILER)freeing of RinoaQuote:

I don't know about you, but in my game, it goes up to level 100.
which is why you junction statdef=death when fighting omega;)
Marlboros are annoying before you have doomtrain. but you need to get the stupid tentacles to get him.
However, soon it's easy to demolish their 142000 hp (or 140000 if you want to devour them:D really easy, because they have demi:D Spr+ on the house!!)
Well, ok, but I think I am right from the laughable easy Malboro's. After that event which I named earlier I beated then after three turns. They were really easy. I don't know what I used. But they were very very easy. I think there are harder monsters troughout the games, like Behemots etc. Or that boss-related monsters from Evrea.Quote:

Malboro's are satan's wenches...only way u can hoper to beat them is Junction Bezerk to status defence & have 'Treatment' then pound it quick & fast. The most difficult monster in the game, the only 1 to have me saying 'fcuk no' as i seen it. The Exp & Tenticles arent worth it, if u need the Tenticles, junction 'Initiative' to a character with 'Mug' Steal & Run.
PS: they can be rarely found on the 2 Heaven & Hell islands & Grandidi Forest.
Dude, marlboros are *very* worth it.
berserk+confuse+sleep status guard isn't too hard to have,
Sometimes they drop the mag+60 (I think. Maybe it's +40) item,
Whittle them down with THEIR OWN DEMI to about 2000 hp and devour for easy (but drawn out^^) spirit+1.
and they're just about the thing I run into the most often on island closest to heaven.
All I do to stomp all over malboros is junction qusitis to protect from silence, berserk, sleep and confuse. Mug to get tentacles and the use her limit break degenerator to win. The End. I got my tentacles in a couple of fights. Easy.
