i have finished the game again who thinks the boss is too easy even my first time was easy
Every singel boss in FFVIII is too easy! The entire game is too easy!
yes, if you understand the junction system that is, apparently many people dont...
and of course, knowing the location of insland closest to hell is a huge advantage

yes bosses are far too easy
its all done based on your levels of COURSE its easy you can complete the game on level 1, no worries
agreed, she [and Griever] are too simple. she's such a pushover that i once gave her a chance to kill me...
yep way 2 easy
The hardest part about Ultimecia is that she selects three random characters from your party. But I'm sure we all knew how to get around that. Griever and third form Ulti can cause some problems but it's really nothing that can't be Curaga-ed/Recover-ed out of. Also you can't die in the fight at all, because there's no way to revive the character that died. But then again, it's very hard to die in this battle and even if you lose a character, you'll usually pull up fine.
I think I know what her problem is. I've found that final bosses in many RPGs tend to annoy you by bombarding you with status effects. Necron and Safer Sephiroth both did this and both proved to be more challenging than Ulti. Damage could never really be a major concern but that's pretty much how Ultimecia attempts to beat you with moves like Shockwave Pulsar and Hell's Judgement.
Doesn't mean the battle wasn't fun though. It was a nice way to end the game.
Agreed. I though it was, in fact, the most entertaining final boss battle out of all the FFs.Quote:

I don't think it's that people aren't good at it. It's just that they're too lazy to do it. And I can fully understand if someone can't be arsed sitting there for 20 mins drawing a hundred of everything from one particular enemy or boss. Or if someone can't be arsed playing Triple Triad for 5 hours just so they can refine some awesome magic.Quote:

With him the battles are easy and you gain lots of AP and Exp.
NOO!!!!!Quote:

I did this myself on my first couple of plays. Don't think 20-30 something magic on each junction is going to work. You need to draw until all your magic is stocked to 100.
Go the Island Closest to Hell or Heaven. Turn on Enc-None and bash X while you walk around. You'll find a tonne of random draw points stocked with awesome magic that'll uber your characters within a few hours.
An ideal game of FF8 will end with your party on about Level 30. That's what I think. I have played games where I finish in the 20s. To put it simply, monsters in FF8 will level up with you. If you're level one and it takes two hits to kill a Bite Bug with no junctions, it'll take you two hits to kill a Bite Bug with a level 100 character with no junctions. Junctions will be what defines your strength in this game. Picture a level 20 Squall with 100 Ultimas on Strength. His Str stat would be 255 (the max). A level 100 Squall with 100 Ultimas on Strength would still be 255. What's the difference? A monster/boss you fight when Squall is level 20 will be around level 20 itself. A monster/boss you fight when Squall is level 100 will be around level 100. Make the right choice. Play FF8 like it should be played.
Easy, you say? I'd like to see you complete a Lv 1 game considering Squall starts at Lv 7 and Quistis at Lv 8.Quote:

and that is a good way to get ap right?well it's best one i know
and no-mercy if i didn't level up i wouldn't get bpast the lion he's just too strong of course i know how to beat him now that im level 80 and for any 1 that dosent know how to beat a hard monster(not boss) use degenerator whith quitsis it sould work speacaly on islands hell/heaven
I beat FF8 on my first way through at Level 48. I've beat it a few more times at lower levels now I'm going to attempt to beat it at level 100 to see if it beefs up Ultimecia a little more. Does anyone know how much harder it will make her?
Also, if you're looking for more of a challenge go through the game without junctioning...so far it's been relatively easy for me but I've only gotten as far as the SeeD ball so I dunno if it'll get much harder...also I'm still only level 8 (during the battles at Dollet I couldnt escape I accidently leveled up Squall once).
EDIT: I mean not junctioning to stats...My challenge right now (my first one too) is to get through the game with no stat junctions, only junctioning GFs in order to give me access to commands (draw, magic, GF, etc.) also I'm not equipping any of the +20% abilities...because it's kinda like stat junctioning.
tell me is that level up with the monsters thing happen on all ff's or just on 8

Just 8, it's the only one it'd work well with because of the Junction system.
