[Necron]

I'm on disc one, i've just got Irvine

Squall: Lv.34
Rinoa: Lv.30
Zell: Lv.33
Quistis: Lv.25
Selphie: Lv.24
Irvine: Lv.13 (i've only just got him)

I also have 100 curas, thundaras, Blizzaras, Firas and floats for Squall, Rinoa and Zell.

It took me ages to train up so i want to know if its all been worthwile.
I know a mate whos Squall is at level 35 on disk 3.

So am i doing well, what level were you at this part of the game?

[redxiiii]

I think your doing very well, I`ve started playing the game myself and i`m on disc 2, and you`ve got better magic then me and your characters are lvled higher, my party is Squall-19
Rinoa 16
Zell-17

Levels dont mean squat in this game. Keep your levels as low as possible. Usually nobody in my squad is over level 14 by the time I reach disc 4, but I'm very anal like that. You want to keep your levels low as later on you'll want to take full advantage of the level+ abilities from certain GFs. Most monsters get stronger as you level up, usually a LOT faster than you usually would in terms of your natural stats, unless you use the +stat bonuses upon levelling up as early as possible.

[rubah]

I would say stop levelling now, if you can.

[Destai]

I guess now would be a good time to tell you the more you level up the more the bosses level up. Have fun!

[tranvanhieu]

Yeah,they are right recemmending you stop leveling(do you know why?)
And if you 've got Tonberry,use his "LV Up" command to get more powerful magics from your enemies.

[XxSephirothxX]

You're playing FFVIII--so far I'd give you a zero.

[tailz]

your doing pretty wel but not to say im good in it or something but i have the habbit of not leaving balamb till i got al the aga's and qauke cause these spels are very handy for junctioning cause if you got those you can get tornado once your near galbadia garden wich are very good for hp or strenght

im not telling your not doing good but just an advice take sqaul and 3 others train them till lvl 40 (i know you cant do it but the best place is in b. garden) then aga's should be on teh menu together with qauke and tornado

[Mo-Nercy]

Zero. Irvine should be your highest level character. Please stop leveling.

I'd give your mate 1.

[Zellaw]

Like everyone else says maybe you should stop leveling.
Why? Because the game is made so when you level the bosses, monsters, ect level with you. Further down the road it helps when you get twords the final boss, its eiser to fight a low level boss then a level 100 one.

In FF8, bragging rights about your characters comes from:

(1) How good your junctions are and how you've used them.
(2) How low level your characters are.

However, the levels you've listed are decent ones to finish the game with, but it certaintly is possible to go lower if you tried.

[rubah]

or 3) How high your unjuntioned stats are.

Unjunctioned: Rinoa, Squall, and Selphie at level 100.

HP: 6031 | 5197 | something lower than thosexD
STR: 191 | 127 | 149
VIT: 111 | 91 | 107
MAG: 141 | 86 | 122
SPR: 71 | 44 | 93
SPD: 37 | 40 | 37

and for fun^_^
when they're properly junctioned:

HP: 9999 | 9797 | 9170
STR: 255 | 255 | 255
VIT: 255 | 239 | 187
MAG: 255 | 186 | 222
SPR: 232 | 162 | 221
SPD: 87 | 110 | 107
JNC: STR/MAG+60%, SPR/VIT+40% | STR/VIT/SPR +40% | SPR/STR+40%
SPL: I dunno. stuff.

makes me wish I had a pocketstation thoughxD

I think Level 41 is the absolute perfect level to fight the final boss, if memory serves. But of course, as you're on Disc 1 of 4, that's a loooooong way away.
