Final Fantasy VIII Riddles again

[Shinwa Tsuki]

Nope.

Hm.... You might not see the yellow version at all in game - but it is around.

[BG-57]

The Garden logos?

Balamb has a blue background, Galbadia has red, and Trabia has yellow.

[Shinwa Tsuki]

Yep, that's the answer. BG, you're up. I think the differently colored things are crystalline in nature.....

[BG-57]

Cool!

Here we go:

Subtle as a sledgehammer
Go to the southwest
Not a surgical tool
But good for a triple bypass

[Shinwa Tsuki]

Hm..... 1000 Needles?

[chionos]

Southwest immediately makes me think of the Underwater Research Facility. "Subtle as a Sledgehammer" could refer to Ultima Weapon's difficulty. I don't have a clue what the "not a surgical tool" refers to exactly, but if you steal from Ultima you can get Three Stars (triple bypass) which I think gave the 3-1 ability. .

It's not Ultima Weapon.

[Hollycat]

the boulder trap?

[BG-57]

Nope.

[Shinwa Tsuki]

How many external references do we have here? I am certain that this one contains such.

[BG-57]

You'll need some basic medical knowledge to know what a triple bypass is.

[Shinwa Tsuki]

Are we looking for an item? Or something else?

[chionos]

It's not really a triple bypass, but what about playing the organ in ultimecia's castle to get past the gate?

Or perhaps something about Zell Quistis and Selphie being locked up during the parade?

[Hollycat]

I can't think of a single thing in 8 that makes me think triple bypass, and I was a med student for 3 years!

Your riddles are always hard.

Challenge accepted.

No and no. One guess at a time, please.

Sorry about the difficulty.
