How Do You Kill Garuda?

**KasaiDraco** · 03-05-2007, 01:10 PM

I just got this game Thursday and I'm up to the point where you have to kill the Garuda. All my party members are at level 13, but I keep getting Game Overs after about a minute. What is an easy strategy to kill him?

Use those berries you got from the Jawa-things in the desert, and it'll take a chunk of it's HP off. As for the fight itself, I had Balthier and Penelo going BOOM HEADSHOT with guns and bows while Ashe spammed magick. Not a hard fight if you can actually damage the bastard.

Same thing you do in every most JRPGs when a boss is too hard to beat: level up.

The berries that you get from the flower by the save point >_> some good eatin'. Long range weapons and magic (the oil / Firaga trick is all leet like.) Can always do a couple of quickenings to end it fast.

who has oil and firaga at raithwall's tomb? xD(oil maybe, but firaga? :O)

Maybe Fire? Jeez rubah get off her back =(

Like most bosses in Final Fantasy XII, my strategy was "OMG ZERGRUSH". I was a winner.

Level up, you are way under leveled for the tomb. I was level 22 there but people have had success at level 17.

**Hazzard** · 03-05-2007, 05:03 PM

yeah get to level 18 (Everyone at least 16), make sure that you get the berries from the side quest in yensa areA.

**eternalshiva** · 03-05-2007, 05:10 PM

I didn't have much trouble with it I was lvl 30 (yes I spent too much time in the mines...) by then >_> Fire / firaga, same type of spell. Didn't take more then 2-3 minutes to beat it and I had all my thingies opened lol

/is a loser ._.

I was level 17, and I did it without the berries, 'cause I didn't know they existed. I also beat it at my first try, but with only two characters alive in the end.

I had Penelo and Fran with Bows, and casted some magic with the others. Basically, I used everyone but Penelo and Fran as human punchingbags for Garuda so Penelo and Fran could attack undisturbed.

I was stuck on that stupid bird for ages

But yeah the berries seemed to do the trick

**No.78** · 03-05-2007, 06:09 PM

Um.... I killed it with a single quickening chain. Wtf XD

**Chloe.** · 03-05-2007, 06:34 PM

I found it pretty easy.

I think i was level 16 or something. The berries helped alot. xD

**Sergeant Hartman** · 03-05-2007, 06:41 PM

I must be on hard mode

**Hazzard** · 03-05-2007, 06:54 PM
