    Default Ochu like thing in omega ruins - easy way?

    hey,

    just wondering if there was an easy way to beat these? I personally think i am at a high enough level to beat these but bad breath always gets me, i recovered from that once and killed it in 2 attacks, but most of the time my charactors always kill themselfs or eachother and then its game over for me.

    any help with this would be great as im attempting to go and kill the omega weapon, but these ochu things keep getting in my way

    Fist Strike, and ribbon too if you can get it on your version

    An overdrive or too might be handy too

    Other than that, I can't remember any decent methods against this fiend...

    Even the strongest can be taken down with bad breath O.o yeah it's just a matter of first strike and/or ribbon and maybe a bit of luck lol. Malboros sucks.

    Have the character with First Strike use Provoke on the Great Malboro. No more Bad Breath unless that character leaves the battle.

    First strike a must (customise weapon with i think a return sphere)

    Then have/do one of the following...

    Provoke - will prevent him from using Bad breath

    Ribbon - Bad breath rendered useless against you

    Beserk proof, confuse proof, sleep proof and silenceproof/darkproof/poisenproof - Protect from the worst, Beserk and confuse mainly

    Summon - Bahamut with doublecast have have him beat fast

    I always equipped Tidus with First Strike also, then used Provoke. The Great Malboro will then use a physical attack on the party, not that strong if memory serves.

    Auron should have Provoke already, by now. But I'm sure that one could use a Special Sphere and save yourself the trouble of having to have Auron gain all of that tasty experience. Boardwalk fries and taters, mm'hmm.

    Isn't that an indication to save often?

    basically, have protection against beserk and confusion, and you'll be fine.

    I hope you know that in the Omega Ruins, the place where you start is right next to a save point, and is the area of the Ruins where you are most likely to encounter at least one of all of the enemies that can be found (except the Weapons) within twenty minutes. You won't lose anything by staying near the Save Point, and you're probably MORE likely to not encounter Greater Marlboros.

    Don't forget your +AP equipment, when possible. The Arena drops a great many of these, if you can actually beat any of the enemies at this point.

    Ummmm, if tidus is in your party, why not customize a weapon with a return sphere to get first strike, and use him for provoke?
