haha, I found out the hard way a few years back.

I'm fighting oilboils now. This challenge just officially got hard. They've beat me four or five times within a ten minute period.

Edit: holy.. [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img]... This is boss fight alone is harder than any boss in the FFIX challenge, including Ozma. Hell, this fight might be more challenging than the entire FFIX challenge put together. The Oilboils have a [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img]load of HP. I haven't even killed one of them yet. Their attacks cast Darkness, and they can cast curse, which pretty much means certain death since these guys are practically unbeatable without limit breaks. Perhaps I am going about this the wrong way, though. Does anybody have any strategy suggestions for me? Currently I have Zell using defend, and healing if he ever gets the chance, and rinoa attacks and heals, while squall attacks unless i'm about to lose.

I don't think I've lasted much more than 5 minutes against these guys.

Double Edit: Holy smurf! I did it! I managed to beat them. Everything in that battle went right for me. I just got smurfing lucky. They didn't use sonic wave once, and I somehow managed to survive all of thier other attacks. I'm fresh out of phoenix downs, though. I hope norg wont be too tough, becuase if he is, my limited resources might make him impossible.
