yeah, i took on that swamp thing because i got tired of trying to catch the stupid chokobos, you know, i figured i could do it.

with coud and tifia and that flower chick acting as a healer i was sure i would be able to wear it down over a long period of time. i have pleanty of eather, phoenix down, and potions to go around.

things started out well, it was a proven system. well, i got overzealous and had the flower chick fight instead of heal, and it all went to hell in a hand basket.

cloud is level 17ish, everyone else is 16

i had not realized that the all modifier materia only works a few times. i was counting on it to heal all my characters all at once, this would keep my healer perfect health and everyone else okay too.

but seriously, is it even possible to kill the swamp snake thing? it flicked tifia out of battle with it's tail (something that i thought wasn't possible) then i still continued to kick ass with my superior though deteriorating strategy until the damn thing went into like...beta mode or something and dealt a massive 1200 something attack to all party members. that's more than twice anyone's maximum health!!!

i don't think i can beat it now, but if i try to level up alot over the next week, i mean solid leveling, just running around fighint the same stuff, and assemble the same team except maybe with beret this time because tifia's limit break is like the lotto, win and loose, with beret it's always good. big shot works great, but mindblow hasn't matured enough to be effective.

i just want to strike down the beast. it has to be possible!!!
