Omega Weapon

[Vyk]

Hahaha that kicks ass. I did that cheat where I kept backing out and trying again or whatever. I forget how it went, but I never lost the turn and kept going until I got "The End" but that's what I was aiming for. You got yours at random, guess the game wanted you to win that one XD

[Ultima Shadow]

While I only consider invinsible items cheap, I think The End is nothing but CHEAT.

[tranvanhieu]

Haha, i think neither "HolyWars" nor "The End" is cheat.
You can use them if you want.But in my opinion,It's a little unfair using them.Poor "Omega Weapon"-He can do nothing to prevent.
Why don't you try to beat him without them?
Keep your LV at low as possible fron the beginning,then use "Str Bonus","Mag Bonus",.......and you 'll exceed maximum power.Use "Devour "also.In the battle with omega,use "Defend" and you'll be all right!A feeling of victory without being considered as a cheater!
Worth to try!

[Ultima Shadow]

Bah! All you really need is 9999 as max HP and decent speed + the Defend command. With that stuff, anyone should be able to take him down.

[Shadow Bahamut]

tranvanhieu is correct in what he says. the method he prduced is actually one of the proffesional ways to beat Omega, only i used Irvine Zell and Squall, cuz they all have multi hit Limit breaks...

Lol - I came across this "cheat" - if you open Selphie's slot and start scrolling through it, then press the button to open the disk cover on your Playstation (must be playstation 1, not 2) then the battle slows down to a stop, but you can keep on scrolling through Selphie's slot until you get to The End. Then just close the cover to allow the game to carry on again at normal speed. After this then click ok for Selphie's slot and you've defeated him.

Very easy way to defeat Omega Weapon, just give Selphie Aura and you're more or less sorted!

PS - I did NOT use this method to defeat it - though I did use Holy Wars. I tested this method out on Diablos and it did work!

[rubah]

It does'nt have to be a ps1.

It works fine with a ps2. Except it's scary how the spell animations repeat themselves over and over.

[lionhearted]

lol - you think that's bad? Remember how Diablos would do that weird thing with his hand just before he cast Gravija - I froze him just when he was doing that - it was like he was stroking the air around him - VERY WEIRD!

Is it me, or does it seem like cheating if you have to use holy wars to beat Omega Weapon? I tried over a hundred times without it, but nothing worked and i had to resort to using holy wars. Thoughts or comments?

Same thing with me... I defeat that monster using this tactic:

- My party was in the level 90-94
- I have the GF Cactuar with the Kamikaze ability, which will provoke a damage of 45000 (well… sort of...)
- And then I had to use the 2 other fighters to summon the GFs until he's done. But I also used the Holy Wars as well.

Well I had to get the Gilgamesh card to get 10 Holy Wars... to get this item, I had to:

1 - Having the Odin card and I had to fight Seifer, on the cd 3... and then Odin will be defeated and Gilgamesh will take his place...

2 - This one is annoying... play cards! I had to defeat Quistys to obtain the Gilgamesh...

At that time was the only safer tactic that I had to do... well if I didn't defeat the Omega Weapon I could not have access to the final GF Eden!

1) You are talking about Ultima Weapon, not Omega Weapon.
2) You can get Eden from Timat. That's actually the easiest way to get Eden.

Yeah! You're right! I get a little confused. The Ultima Weapon is form the Deep Sea Research Center (the one I was talking about...), the Omega Weapon is from the Ultimecia Castle (that's a harder one!). Well I'm sorry for the mistake!

*newbie excuse*

Well... at least I tell you how to beat the Ultima Weapon. Now for this one:

You have to unlock all options and have all ultimate weapons before starting this battle. Junction the Auto-Haste ability (from Cerberus) to Squall. Junction 100 Hastes to each character's speed. Also junction Revive and Recover abilities to your party. Keep as many X-Potions, Mega Phoenixs, Elixirs, and Megalixirs (this one I get from Bahamut card) at hand as possible. Two characters must have 9999 HP and one above 5000 in order to keep your party alive. Holy Wars (from Gilgamesh card) it's essential. If any of your characters have a level that is the multiple of 5, junction as many Death magics to status defense. With your characters set in this manner, use all your abilities to inflict damage.

Now for the battle:

Cast Meltdown on Omega Weapon, following with Aura (you have to get a lot of Auras to do the work...) on Squall. Use Squall's Renzokuken (if you also have his Ultimate Weapon he can use the Lionheart) on Omega Weapon repeatedly. Always keep Squall's HP at maximum. When you're attacked with Medigo Flame, quickly revive and restore your party members HP. Afterwards, you'll be attack with Gravinja, decreasing your HP greatly. Finally, he'll attack with Terra Break (18000+ damage to all). Make sure that you use the Holy Wars to all your characters. Whichever character survives should quickly revive all dead party members after the Terra Break. Continue to use Squall's Renzokuken on Omega Weapon. Keep the rhythm until he's defeated. You can also use the Kamikaze ability to do some heavy damage.

Now I didn't make any mistake now!

I hope that tip could help... :rolleyes2

Actually... I consider Ultima Weapon harder than Omega.

But I'm sure most people around here have got bored of discussing that.

[Mercen-X]

You guys all beat him!? I couldn't even FIND him! He's supposed to be hidden and you play a piano or something and about a rosetta stone. I bought a strategy guide on it but the damn thing referred me to the BradyGames FF site . . . THAT WASN'T EVEN UP!!!!!! I hate BradyGames and I think that the people who publish it should all die horrible deaths!

[rubah]

Actually you tug on a bell and he shows up next to an organ.

Go figure.

[Luthien]

I'm sorry, and I don't mean to offend anyone here, but I smell bull-poo, and I'll explain why:

The ratio of Omega's level with your own has nothing to do with the fact that he's faster and stronger than you at any level. Personally, I had my characters maxed out at level 100, the best junctions on everything, best weapons, holy wars, quistis left in yellow for that attack she does there, the whole nine yards, and I FINALLY managed to beat him. I cannot imagine going into a battle like that, let alone beating Omega, without serious preparation. Granted, it did take me a couple of tries, and I imagine it took most people a couple of tries, so I can't honestly believe that someone can breeze thru it. If there's a trick to it, maybe. If you are SUPER lucky, maybe. Then again, I may just suck.

During the game, I mugged 3 heroes from Seifer and... I don´t remember right now, but here´s my strategy:
1. Squall, Rinoa and Irvine in my party, with Lv 100 and all their stats up (specially str, hp, spd and spr). NO Elem-Attack Junction (so Omega can´t absorb their attack). Last weapons and all limits.

2. Squall has Item, Gf and Magic command. Rinoa: GF, Magic and Revive. Irvine: GF, Magic and Recover. All of them should have the basics: hp+..., str+..., return damage and initiative.

3. Once the battle begins, the first round you should cast triple on each of them. Then the next round, the first character cast protect over them all, the second cast shell, and the third, aura.

4. Now, Squall use a hero over each of them, while the other 2 use their limits on Omega (after casting a Meltdown on it). NOTE: I strongly recommend using AP Ammo, cause it´s quite powerful, and is faster than Pulse Ammo.

5. Once the aura wores off, continue attacking (that´s why I didn´t use Elem-Attack) and after the hero wores off, cast aura again, and wait until Rinoa uses Invisible Moon. When she does, continue the strategy until you kick Omega´s big ass.

See, no Holy Wars...
