    Yea, that's what I mean. And when Doomtrain is used, it's mainly because of the stats effects, not the dammage. However, Malboros are immune to everything but Meltdown.

    Lets see... Doomtrain can be kind of spotted in the Occult Fan magazines, which give hints on how to get it. To get Doomtrain you need the following items:
    - Solomon's Ring: found on Lunatic Pandora's base, that platform which has huge stone cubes and a Budha statue. It's lying on the floor.
    - 6 Remedy+: Refine them with Alexander's MedRef ability.
    - 6 Steel Pipes: Those ugly, green, Hulk-like monsters which can play basket with one of your party members. On the forest near Dollet, where Mr.Monkey is, you can find them.
    - 6 Marlboro Tentacles: You already know.

    If you have all the listed above, select the Solomon's ring from the inventory, and you should hear a kind of howl, and Doomtrain will speak.

    And you need to get Solomon's Ring before the Lunatic Pandora incident. Otherwise, you're gonna have to wait till Disk 4.

    The islands also have about 655957542166456206549031646 draw points each. You can just run around and hit the action button and BAM, you'll get tons of para-magic.

    Yeah, all you need is the Enc-None ability, and you cna run around getting Ultima, Triple, Holy etc.

    Great way to make yourself a juggarnaut!

    To get the tentacles, I always just put as many status defense things on everyone as I could. Especially my mugger. If you have that, just mug it right in the beginning, and run. I don't relly think it's that worth it to try and kill it. They're a pain in the ass. Can't you refine the tentacles from some item, too? Or maybe I'm wrong...

    You could always just run straight away, hoping Odin comes along first and kills it. He seems to do that every once in a while for me.
    What is life? What seperates the greats from the almost greats? Is it skill? Power? Luck?

    Or is it the fact they won?

    You can refine from the Malboro cards. But I prefere to kill them. You don't need to kill 6 of them to get 6 tentacles, one singel high level Malboro can drop 6 tentacles. However, just make sure to junction the 100 confusion, sleeps and berserks and you will have full control of your characters, then cast Esuna or remedy to heal stats and finally, have Quistis use Degenerator, or whatever else to kill them.

    Thanks ^_^'!

    I'll pray for Odin to appear and to do what you've just said me Ultima Shadow!

    I think that Malboro is the only monster that I don't like to kill and Odin only appear when I'm not in trouble!

    But the best of all is when the new Odin appear and only take away 1 HP from the enemy!

    Now by the way where do I get those Ocults Facts Magazines?

    Heh, scary picture! Yea, Malboros is pain in the ass... atleast when they have first strike.
    However, those Ocults Facts Magazines, I only know that one of them is found in the Balamb Garden library. But you don't need to have them to get Doomtrain. Just bring the Items and you can get one of the coolest and most usefull GFs in the game.

    Oh, and the "new Odins" name is Gilgamesh.

    Same here. I'd get everyone to level 100 with it.

    Here's a map of the world for everyone to help you find the island. I know these maps help me.
