About Cards

[Dazlar Bynon]

I must say that some characters don't want to play there rare cards! I'm not talking about Genaral Carraway, because you have to loose Ifrit to him first! But Zell's mom doesn't want to play Zell's card, only after kicking her *behind* a lot she finally played Zell! The guy in the yellow raincoat is supposed to have a GF-card but he doesn't want to play it either, but Iknow I've done it before!

This pisses me off...
[start directing my anger towards Zell and out of nowhere Selphie starts joining me]

I have this problem too, and it seems to be random which cards appear rarely. I know I have the problem with Zell's mom, I think someone said you need Zell in your party but it still appears rarely.

I also never seem to finish the Card Quest, and where is that Chocobo shrine supposed to be? I just can never seem to get all the cards!

I had to repetedly play against that kid doing laps around the Garden to get the 3 Iron Giants needed to make a star fragment, I was dueling him for about 5 hour straght untill he gave up his Iron Giants. I had the punishment by the end of disc 2.

The Chocobo Shrine is in that huge forest north of Esthar. You've got to go there after finding treasure in every Chocobo forest.

As for the other rare cards... there are some you can't get without finishing the card quest - the part in Dollet, where you have to intentionally lose cards to the Queen so that her father can base new cards upon them.

I found it much easier to(SPOILER) beat the CC group, then play them aboard the Ragnarok - and the Card Queen at the escape pod landing site - in disc four to get all of the remaining cards.

[Dazlar Bynon]

Then I guess you had Minimog as well, since he's carieing that one! But you might also try to get Quistis which is a little better. I always seem to have to fight Trepe Groupie #3 for that, even though it should be possible with any groupie, I don't know!

[Erdrick Holmes]

Wait a second when you get to disc 4 you (SPOILER) cannot go anywhere else you can only figt Adel, once disc 4 begins you cannot enter the Ragnork and leave the Lunitac Pandora, disc 4 is a piont of no return

[Spatvark]

The CC group are ON the Ragnarok; when you find and take off in it on disc 4, press circle and then hold triangle. It'll take you to the hold where you'll find Xu. All of the CC group will onboard the Ragnarok now so you can play them all you want... though it gets really hard (but if you're cunning, then you can do a whole lotta funky stuff)

[Sephex]

Yes, thats why I kind of stopped playing cards...it just got to time consuming for me. I know the cards help out in a bunch of ways but when I went through FFVIII, I did the most half-assed job in the world and STILL had an alright time beating it. Side quest stuff is so over-rated.

Better to fight for the goods than play a stupid game.

I agree(assuming you on my side by saying 'playing the game' meaning the actual game not the card game).

[Dazlar Bynon]

Yet it is a part of the game, you can try and take advantage of it (if that what you call it!), or play for the card quest, or ignore it all together. The choice is up to you, you can have any opinion about it you want, just don't try to force your way upon anyone here, please, thanx!

[Erdrick Holmes]

But once you get on disc four you cannot get back on the ragnarok. What the hell are you talking about.

Who the hell said I was forcing my way on anyone? Thats pretty sad if you felt you had to listen to me just because I said something. Okay, "plz thx".:rolleyes2
