------------------------------------------------------------------------
About the Guardian Force
Guardian Forces are very important in the game as they can done
devastating damage to your enemies. They are similar to the summons of
FF7 and FFT. Summoning a GF will resulting a blue ATB covering the
character's ATB (ATB stands for Active Time Bar). Also, the stats of the
GF will be overlapping the character's stats. Guardian Forces' HP can be
recovered while staying in Hotels (such as Balamb Hotel)/Dormitory. You
can also make use of GF recovering items such as G-Returner and Pet
Houses, which can be bought from GF Pet Shops.
However, in FF8, Guardians Forces do not only allows you to have an edge
in combat, they also help in boosting up your characters' ability
through the Junction Menu. Your characters can become stronger through
the Junction by junction magic to boost up their abilities/attributes.
Each GFs has 22 Abilities and some of them need to be learn. There are
six classes of abilities: Command, GF, Character, Party, Menu and
Junction. Learning this abilities requires AP which can be gained by
winning battles against BOSSES/monsters. GFs have levels unlike Summons
in FF7. You can treat GFs like a character. The higher level the GF is,
the more powerful it becomes. To level up, GFs need to gain EXP points.
Why GFs is that important?
There are a total of 16 GFs (with abilities) and 6 hidden GFs. Without
them, your characters have low statistics and HP. They will only possess
the Attack ability. You need to junction a GFs to a character in order
to have commands. GFs can be gain by using an items, defeating them or
drawing them via the Draw command from BOSSES. [refer to Part I, Basic
Tutorial for more information]
_____
/ 1.1 \_________________________________________________________________
------------------------------------------------------------------------
About GF Abilities
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This has been tested and proven by me. If your GF has mastered the
previous ability such as SumMag +10% (Or it stands for Summon Magic
+10%), you will find its prequesite, SumMag +20%, covering an empty
slot. Prequesites needed mastered in order to unlock its advance
ability. Below is a mini-diagram illustrating about this:
{key: "---m--->" stands for "mastered and gain"]}
Examples:
GF HP +10% ---m---> GF HP +20% ---m--> GF HP +30%
SumMag +10% ---m--> SumMag +20% ---m--> SumMag +30%
Med Data ---m--> Med LV Up
Card ---m--> Card Mod-RF
F-Mag-RF ---m--> Ammo-RF
But sometimes the advanced ability does not appear in the GF
abilities list. The reason is that an empty slot has been occupied
with another ability [you can add an ability by using GF items such
as Steel Pipe [which allows GFs to learn SumMag +10%]. In the GF
abilities list (which will be discussed in further details below), you
will find the 22 actual abilities without any modification. Quite
confusing, huh?
Hence, here is a word of advice, don't use GF items on a GF until the
GFs have mastered the "actual" 22 abilities naturally. Once it has
mastered all the abilities, you can use Amnesia Greens [an item which
can be bought from Pet Shops] to delete an ability (but be careful as
once an ability has been deleted, you can't bring it back!). Certain
items can't be used for certain cases:
If you have a HP-J Scroll [which allows a GF to learn HP-J], you
intend to use it on a GF Quezacotl. You can't use it as GF Quezacotl
has that ability in its ability list. Get it?

/ 1.2 \_________________________________________________________________
------------------------------------------------------------------------
GF Management
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Always get ALL GFs into battles [It's not necessary to summon them,
but make sure that they are along with your characters through
Junction to gain EXP]. They can gain HP bonuses and they will inflict
more damage when they are at higher levels.
2. Always go after rare skills such as Diablos' Mug [as this ability is
pretty handy if you need to get the rare items such as Steel Pipes.]
3. Distribute the GFs evenly to all characters. Make sure everyone
has spells junction to basic factors:
<> Str-J [affects your character's attacking power]
<> Mag-J [affects your character's magic attacking power]
<> HP-J [This is basically your character's stats as once it hits
zero, your character will be KO'ed]
<> Vit-J [This similar to defense, the higher the stats is, the
lower damage done by physical attacks. Physical attacks also
includes non-magic attacks. Example, Ruby Dragon's Breath and
Malboro's Eerie Sound Wave]
4. For those GFs with Boost ability, always get them beforehand of all
other GF abilities. It is cheap and can does about 30% ~ 50% more
damage.
5. Always check what abilities that you are learning before get into
battles. Always pick those high AP skills that require to master
before fighting against BOSSES, making full use of it.
6. Use GF recovering items such as G-Potions, G-Mega-Potions to
recover lost HP of your GFs.
7. Summon GFs regulary with one specific character. Summoning a GF
many times by a character will improve the GF's compatibility with
the character. Boost will work at its best in this case. GF
compatibility affects the speed of the ATB bar of GF. [The higher
the GF compatibility, the faster the GF will be summoned!]
8. For better results of improving GF relationship, use LuvLuv G
and GF compatibility items such as Bomb Fragments [improves
compability with Ifrit by 1]
9. Don't ever use Amnesia Greens on GF's abilities such as T Mag-RF
which cannot be retrieve by using items to learn it again. Don't
use GF learning items before the GFs have mastered all the actual
22 GF abilities, otherwise you can't unlock some of the abilities.

Explanation on the GF Screen
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Select the GF option under the main menu and you should see a screen
similar to the one stated below in ASCII format.
Fig 1.3a The GF Main Screen

16. Eden
Of course at the beginning of the game, the screen will not be as
occupied as compared to the ASCII. You will get the 16 GFs along your
journey, refer to the walkthrough on how to get them.
Fig 1.3b The Status Screen of a GF
_______ _______________________________________
| Photo | Quezacotl |Status P1|
| of | LV. 1 | HP-J Complete! |
| GF | HP 300 / 300 ||> Vit-J 0 / 50 AP |
|_______| | Mag-J 0 / 50 AP |

EXP needed: 250 P | Draw Complete! |
| Card 0 / 40 AP |
| Mag +20% 0 / 60 AP |
| GF HP +10% 0 / 40 AP |
Present Skill | SumMag +10% 0 / 40 AP |
Body Strength J | Boost 0 / 10 AP |
AP 10 / 50 AP | T-Mag RF 0 / 30 AP |
|_______________________________________|
------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the above example, I had used GF Quezacotl as an example, note that
the names of abilities under the abilities screen is not the same for
all the 16 GFs. You will see a word "Complete!" once the required AP
has been met. You can move your cursor to select the ability with the
one that you want to learn.
Okay, let's start off with the explanation. After you have chosen [GF]
sub-menu, you will see the screen when there are the pictures of your
GFs. Now select the picture and you will see a screen similar to the
one illustrated above. This screen is known as the "Learn" Screen. Now
you will be able to choose the GF ability that you want to master first.
Note that if the GF had mastered SumMag +10% (it will unlock its
advanced ability) and the GF will now be learning SumMag +20%. Certain
abilities such as Card Mod-RF will be available after you have mastered
the Card Command. Computer always picks the SumMag +10%. Hence, it will
be better if you choose to master Boost ability (which is better, refer
to GF Abilities Bestiary for more details) first. Hence, some of your
choices may work much better as compared to the computer's choice.
Note: All GFs have two slots for character/party abilities except for
GFs with Ability x3 or Ability x4. How to equip commands? refer
to "Basic Tutorial" section in Part I. You can also find a basic
guide typed by Yee Seng Fu (ysf@pacific.net.sg) and it is also
found at gamefaqs. You can get more information regarding about
the basics of playing FF8.
Abilities that are being marked with a "*", are the initial abilities
that are unlocked. If you have any doubts which ability will unlock
the desired ability, refer to the Ability Learning Tree for more
details. [it is just below the list]. Names of GFs or attacks that are
marked in brackets and a T are the names that are used for the Japanese
version.

Name of GF: Cactuar [T: Sabotander]
Summon Attack: 1,000 Needles [T: 1,000 Iron Needles]
Elemental: Non elemental against all opponents.
Getting It: Head for the Cactuar Island, it's located on the south
east area of Centra Area. [there is a green Cactuar
there (actually it's the Jumbo Cactuar)] Make contact
with it and it's very tough. [Refer to Part I on

huge and massive Cactuar and its about 4 times bigger
than an ordinary Cactuar. Defeat it to get this GF.
How it works: The GF Cactuar works like this. Let's says the
Cactuar's Level is between x0 to x9 then the damage
that the Cactuar inflict will be x000. Let's says
if the Cactuar's Level is 73, the damage inflict
will be 7000 exactly. Quite a good GF. Thanks to

bubbles appears from the character's body]. You can summon this GF
using GF command but they can be summoned using the following methods:
- Appears in between or at the beginning of the battles.
- Using an item to summon it through the item command.
- Use as a command
Name: Phoenix
Summon Attack: Rebirth Flame [T: Phoenix Flame]
Elemental: Fire elemental damage to all opponents and cast Life
on all allies.

the Phoenix, and can only be use during battles.]. To
get Phoenix Pinions, you must get Tool-RF, by refining
Mega Phoenix to Phoenix Pinion in a 3:1 ratio. You can
also get one from Shumi Village quest part I and the

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Name: Odin
Summon Attack: Zantetsuken [T: Iron Cutting Sword]
Elemental: Non elemental attack against all enemies (instant dead
attack) Odin does not appear during BOSS Fights!
Getting It: First of all, you need to locate the Centra Ruins. Enter
the Centra Ruins and take left stairs. Move upwards and
proceed the elevator. Once take the left ladder and move
up to activate the power source. Next move back down and
activate the power source that's located at the lower
level. You will find a spiral-stairway and use it. Next
you will find a Gargoyle with a Eye Ruby. Take the Eye
Ruby and move up the stairs. Place the "eyes" and you
will get a five digit password [which is random]. Now
take down both the "eyes" and move back to the previous
Gargoyle. Place both and enter the password [the torch
on the right reveals a column of zeros. Using D-Pad to
switch between numbers and press Circle once you are
done. Now you will be able to unlock the secret chamber.
Enter the chamber and you will find the Odin. Defeat it
and get this GF!
Note: You need to do all this in a time interval.
Disc: 2 ~ 4
Notes: There is an official bug in Disc 3 if you attempt
to get Odin. The bug occurs if you failed to get the GF
in given time and you choose to continue, the game will
just freezes. Hence do it in Disc 2 is a better option.
NOTES: The appearance of the Odin appears randomly in battles
and appears at the beginning of battles. The Odin's
Zantetsuken is an instant death attack against all
opponents. It does not have any effect against BOSSES.
The appearance of Odin is based on the number of Death
Spirits and Luck status.
Name: Gilgamesh
Summon Attack: Zantetsuken/Excalibur/Excalipur/Masamune
Elemental: Non elemental attack against all opponents.
Getting It: You will get this if you have gotten Odin before the
battle against the Seifer at Lunatic Pandora
Disc: 3
NOTES: The Gilgamesh can even appears in between battles. The
Gilgamesh have four cool attacks [all the swords except
for Zantetsuken] are based on Final Fantasy V. Thanks
to Heero Yuy for the valuable information. It can also
appears in BOSSES Fight. [even between battles!]
Name: Chicobo
Summon Attack: Choco Fire /Choco Flare / Choco Meteor
Elemental: Non elemental attack against all foes.
Getting It: To get this, you need to find the Gyshal Greens.
One of them can through the Missing Vase Pieces quest.
To get more of these, refer to Quests Section. The summon
effect will improve if you have accquired certain levels
at your Pockestation. You can summon this through
the item command [during battles only!] Make sure that
you have at least summoned once the Mother Chocobo from
the Chocobo Forest.
Disc: 2 ~ 4
Notes: Refer to Chocobo Forests Guide in Quest section.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pocketstation GFs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: MiniMog [T: Ko-Mogri]
Summon Attack: Mog's Dance
Elemental: n/a. Restore 1500 HP for all in-battle participating GFs.
Getting It: You need a Pocketstation to do so. Get a Mog's Amulet
item and use it on a GF [use Amnesia Green and replace it
on an empty slot] Equip the command "MiniMog". Just use
it while the character has reaches his/her turn.
Disc: Disc 2 onwards
Notes: Go to GameFAQs (http://www.gamefaqs.com) and get the
Pocketstation FAQs. I can't give you that much help as I
myself do not own the Pocketstation.
Name: Moomba [T: Mumba]
Summon Attack: Moomba Moomba Moomba
Elemental: Non elemental damage against one opponent.
Getting It: You need a Pocketstation to do so. Get a Friendship item.
Next give the character the item command. Select the item
from the menu and use it. It is the same method that you
use to summon the Phoenix. The Moomba can does over the
5-digit mark surprisingly...
Notes: See above.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not-your-GFs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Giever [T: Gievra]
Summon Attack: Shockwave Pulsar [T: Shockwave Phaser]
Elemental: Non elemental damage against all opponents.
Getting It: You can't get this GF! It is with the final boss. Hmm..
it is just like the Super Nova summon used by Sephiroth
of FF7
Notes: Although you can't get the GF, you can get the GF's
Summon Attack. To be more acurate, it is actually one of
Quistis' Limit Breaks.

Command Abilities (!)
========================================================================
Command Abilities are basically the abilities that appears in your
character's command menu during the game. Each character can have the
maximum of 4 commands.
Certain commands also you to do different things. However the ATTACK
command is a must. But it can be replaced if you have gotten Mug. [an
ability which allows your character to steal an item and at the same
time dealts damage.] All GFs (except for Phoenix, Chicobo, Moomba,
MiniMog and Odin) will have mastered the Magic, GF, Item and Draw
commands.
2.1.1. Magic Command
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : All except for Odin, Phoenix, Chicobo |
| Functions : Allows the equipped character to cast magic during|
| battles. When your character has the status |
| disorder of Silence, your character will be unable|
| use the command. |
| AP needed : n/a |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance:
This is one of the best commands in the game. It serves as great
importance as the command does not only provides offense, but also
helps in defense by restoring lost HP. You can cast two/three magics
in a single turn only after a Double/Triple spell is being cast on you.
But first of all, you have to stock up some magic [by drawing from
enemies or Draw Points]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In-depth Explanation of Magic
__________
|Attack | After you have select the [MAGIC] from the Command Menu
|Magic <|| you will be able to see the number of spells and types
|GF | of spells stocked up in the character's Magic Inventory.
|Draw | __________________
|__________| --> |Magic P1 NUM| TIP: Always arrange the spells
|Fire 100| such as Cure, Aura and
| |Fira 45 | Life on the first few
| |Blizzard 100| pages. [Each character has
| |Blizzaga 4 | a total number of 8 pages]
| |__________________|
|
| /_\
| ________ |
| | | _ _ _ _|
| |Normal | After Triple is being cast on your character, when
- -> |Double | you select the Magic Command, you will see a box
| | [which looks like the one on the left]. There you
|________| can select the option and you be brought to the
Magic Inventory [when you can select the spells]
OR Select Double, allows you to cast two spells of
________ the same kind in one turn. Selecting Triple will
| | allows you to cast three spells of the same kind
| Normal | in turn. You can switch targets unlike Selphie's
| Double | Limit Breaks. To cast more spells for a single
| Triple | cost, you must acquired Expend x2-1 or Expend x3-1
|________|
Notes:
* If the character is under Silence status, the command will be greyed
out.
* To know about each Magic spell, please refer to the Magic section for
more details.
* The effect of Magic depends on the character's Mag stats and the
damage done on an enemy based on the Spr stats.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.2. GF Command
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : All except for Odin, Phoenix, Chicobo |
| Functions : Allows the equipped character to summon a GF |
| during battles. Summoning a GF will causes the ATB|
| and the stats of GF to overlap the stats of your |
| character. Unable to use it when character is |
| Silence disorder. |
| AP needed : n/a |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of GF Command
In FF8, summoning a GF requires time [but you can now ignore the MP
cost] as compared to the previous FF series except for FFT. As you
summon a GF, the stats will overlap over the character's HP. There,
you will see blue ATB Bar [which will stops immediately when the GF
is killed or a Silence Spell is being cast on the character]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In-Depth Explanation on GF Command
__________ ______________________
|Attack | |GF P1| Just simply select the
|Magic | |Quezacotl HP: 457 | command [GF] and choose
|GF <|| --> |Shiva HP: 359 | the GF that you wish to
|Item | |Ifrit HP: 409 | summon. There you will see
|__________| |______________________| a blue ATB bar start to
overlap the character's
stats.
Notes:
- The character can only summon the GF that he/she is currently junction
with. He/She can't summon a GF which is being junctioned with another
character.
- The ATB of GF [represented by blue colour] is the indication of the
amount of time left for the GF to be summoned. The speed of the ATB
depends on the compatibility with the equipped character.
- The GF's damage depends on the opposing elementals, level of GF and
Summon Attack bonus [SumMag +10% is one of them], and other external
factors [such as Boost]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.3. Draw Command
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : All except for Odin, Phoenix, Chicobo |
| Functions : Allows the equipped character to draw magic from a|
| foe during a battle. The character could draw up |
| to nine kind of that spell and could use it |
| immediately [2nd option] or store for later use [ |
| 1st option]. It also could draw hidden GFs such as|
| GF Siren. Unable to use the command when the |
| character is under the Silence status disorder. |
| AP needed : n/a |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of Draw
This is really an important command in FF8. It allows you to draw
spells where you can choose to stock them or cast them immediately.
You can draw up to 100 kind of a certain spell. The rate of drawing
magic depends solemnly on your Mag stats [Edea has strong Mag stats
that's why she could draw up to 9 kind of that spell, each time she
uses the Draw Command, but you can also improve the Mag stats by using
Junction]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In-Depth Explanation of Draw Command
_________
|Attack | _________
|Magic | ---> |Fire | _________ TIP: Sometimes, you see
|GF | |Thunder<|| --> | Stock | that "Stock" has
|Draw <|| |Blizzard | | Cast | been greyed out,
|_________| |Cure | |_________| this means that
|_________| the character has
already 100 kind
of that spell.
Here is a brief explaination on how the [Draw] system works. First of
all you have to select the [DRAW] command and select the monster that
you wished to draw from [you can't draw spells from a death monster,
which results a miss. Certain characters such as Quistis have weak
ability in drawing magic at a weak rate too.]. There you will see the
list of spells that you can draw from. Select the spell and you will
see the third box.
Stock allows you to stock up magic in your inventory [you can only do
this if you have less 100 of that kind of spell and sufficient space
in the character's inventory].
Cast allows you to draw the spell and cast the spell immediately
[however only one quantity at one time.] Note that monsters such as
Ruby Dragon, what you have drawn from it, is pretty useless against
it.
Notes:
* You can draw more magic by tapping the Circle button repeatedly
while drawing magic. [This is still not confirmed, but it works
when you have low Mag stats]
* Draw is a vital command in the game and never ever go into a BOSS
fight without it as you can draw GFs from it. There are about 6 GFs
that can be obtained from this method. Hence take note. To avoid
much doubts, below is a short list of GFs
Elynole [at Communciation Towers] --> Siren Disc 1
Iguions [at the President's Mansion] --> Carbuncle Disc 1
NORG [basement of Balamb Garden] --> Leviathan Disc 2
Fujin [at Balamb Hotel] --> Pandemona Disc 2
Edea [At the Auditorium of Galbadia Garden] --> Alexander Disc 2
Ultima Weapon [at Deep Sea Deposit] --> Eden Disc 3-4
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.4. Item Command
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : All except for Odin, Phoenix, Chicobo |
| Functions : Allows the equipped character to use items for |
| healing and restore lost Life. Also allows you to |
| summon the Phoenix, Moomba and Chicobo. It is |
| important and a bit useful in game or if the |
| character has been silenced during battles. |
| AP needed : n/a |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Comments
One of the basic fundamentals in the FF series. This command allows
you to use items, which can help to restore status ailments, give
supporting aid, cast magic [via Stones] and most importantly, restore
HP. This command allows you to use MEDICINE and BATTLE ITEMS. This
command is still usable even if the character is being silenced. You
can have up to the maximum no. of 10 pages. The system of using item
is similar to the Magic command.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.5. Card Command
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Quezacotl |
| Functions : Allows you to "card" a wounded monster. This |
| command happens to miss very often and it will |
| take quite a long time. Note that not all enemies |
| can be carded by the command [example: Fujin] |
| You can only do this when the HP of the monster is|
| running low. |
| AP needed : 40 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance:
It is rather a good command if you are running out of that particular
cards. For easy usage on carding monsters, cast Demi to reduces the HP
of the monster and then used the card command.
However, it practically takes ages for you to card a strong foe such as
the Ruby Dragon. This command is still usable even if the character is
silenced.
But it doesn't mean you can't get BOSS cards! You can also get BOSS
cards as stated in the card list, you will find names of the monsters,
along with some of the BOSS names. You can get two different types of
cards from some of the monsters. As for rare cards, you need to play
or quest to get them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.6. Doom Command [T: Death Sentence Command]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Shiva |
| Functions : Allows you to cause the Instant Death status. You |
| see a counter on the top of the enemies. Once the |
| counter reachers zero, the monster will be killed |
| instantly, very ineffective against BOSSES. |
| Description : You will see a Devil appearing and spins its staff|
| and you will see a countdown of 24 seconds. When |
| the counter reaches zero, the spirit of the |
| monster leaves its body. |
| AP needed : 60 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance:
One great command against high HP foes such as the T-Rexaur. Just
simply use the command on the monster and you will see a counter
appears at the top of the monster. When the counter hits zero, the
monster will be instantly killed. To make the best out of it, cast
Blind or have the 100x Blind junctioned to ST-Atk-J so that monster
misses its attack. All you do is to wait. This command is still
usable even if the character is being silenced. But the downside of it,
is that it is a waste of time...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.7. Mad Rush [T: Rush Command]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Ifrit, Eden |
| Functions : Causes the character to have the Berserk, Haste |
| Shell and Protect status on ALL characters. You |
| will lose control your characters. |
| AP needed : 60 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance
Use this when the monster is low on HP. Your party will just keep on
attack until his/her HP drop to zero. [It is just like Lucky 7's
status of FF7, except it does not do 9999 HP damage each time..]
This command effects all characters. So it is inadvisble to use this
on high HP bosses such as the Ruby Dragons. ALL party members will be
affected even they have 100x Berserk junctioned to ST-Def-J.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.8. Treatment [T: Chiryou Command]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Siren |
| Functions : This command is pretty useful as it will remove |
| all status aliments from that character. I doubted|
| only the negative ones, such as Silence. You will |
| definitely need this for fighting monsters which |
| relies on status disorder such as Malboros and |
| Tri-Faces. |
| AP needed : 100 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of Treatment Commnad
This command works like casting an Esuna spell or using a Remedy. This
command is great as it is STILL usable even the character is being
silenced. It will remove any forms of status ailments [negative ones
only]. However the character can't use this command if he/she is
under the following status ailments: Berserk, Sleep, Stop, Petrify
and Confuse. It is really a good ability. Try to get it, after you have
acquired Boost for GF Siren.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.9. Defend
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Brothers, Cactuar |
| Functions : Allows the equipped character to defend attacks |
| thus reducing damage from offensive monsters such |
| as the T-Rexaur. |
| AP needed : 100 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of Defend command
I guess it is really bad as Squaresoft does not allow characters to
have the Defend commnd without equip anything. This command will works
well against monsters that solemnly depends on physical damage [one
good example is the T-Rexaur]. This command is quite good as it works
like the Protect [however only for that particular turn only]. It is
much better if the character could escape than withstand attacks from
his/her opponents. The command could effect until the end of the
battle, unless you changes the command of that particular character.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.10. Darkside [T: Ankoku Command]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Diablos, Doomtrain, Eden |
| Functions : This command is rather risky some HP and thus doing|
| more damage using physical attacks. Use this when |
| the enemy's HP is running low. It's rather risky. |
| AP needed : 100 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of Darkside
Hmm.. this is a risky one. This command sacrifices some HP resulting
the character inflict 3 times more damage than an ordinary attack.
This is quite good when being used properly. Using this command on
dying monsters, could result easy victories. It is still usable even
if the character is being silenced. I myself quite like this command.
For character's whose Str is about 230+, the character could do 9999
HP damage with this command and loses about 1/20 of his/her HP!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.11. Recover [T: Recovery Command]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Leviathan |
| Functions : Restores all your HP during the battle. Very |
| useful when fighting against BOSS. It's rather |
| costly as it need high AP |
| AP needed : 200 AP. |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of Recover
A lot of FF8 players think that this is one of the best GF command
abilities. This results restoring HP fully to one character, and it
works like Full-cure except it only applies to a character. A great
command for killing undead. Does 9999 HP to undead creatures if the HP
of the monster exceeds 9999. Instant killer weapon against Zombies. Do
NOT use this when Zombie is being cast on the character. Serves well
for offense and support, by restoring lost HP.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.12. Absorb
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Pandemona, Doomtrain |
| Functions : Drain off some HP from one foe. This ability isn't |
| that good against low HP monsters. But it drains a |
| massive amount of HP from high HP monsters such as |
| the T-Rexaur. |
| AP needed : 100 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of Absorb
Your character will just drain some HP from the monster, and it is
based on Mag stats, does about 300+ to weak monsters and over 1000
against high HP monsters. Quite a good command if you are lack of
Potions and healing magic. Usable even if the character is under the
Silence status.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.13. Revive [T: Sosei Command]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Alexander |
| Functions : One of the best abilities, It revives a dead party |
| member and restores fully the KO'd character's HP. |
| This has same purpose of Full-life magic. |
| AP needed : 200 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of Revive
This can also be an instant killing weapon against undeed. Generally,
this is much preferred over Item command in thus of remove KO. As you
just need to select the command and choose the character to revive and
saves trouble to search through the item pages for the Phoenix Down.
But it can be quite useless at sometime...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.14. Kamikaze [T: Self-Explosion]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Cactuar |
| Functions : At last, I have used this...but resulting a death |
| of a party member. The character, who uses the |
| command, will just rushes forward and followed by |
| an explosion! Doing 30,000+ HP damage! The |
| character will disappear and you can't use the |
| character anymore for that particular battle. If |
| you check the menu, you see that the character's |
| HP has dropped to zero! |
| AP needed : 100 AP |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance/Downside of Kamikaze
This is a very risky move! It is extremely dangerous if you have
sacrifice your best character and have run out of stock for your Life
spells and Phoenix Down. But there is one good point, it can lead to a
deadly attack against strong HP monsters such as the T-Rexaur. But you
can't revive the "kamikaze" character. The body of that character is
gone...
2.1.15 LV Down [T: Level Down]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Tonberry |
| Functions : Level down your opponent's level, thus reducing |
| their attributes. You will also gain less EXP. If |
| you have succeeded, you see a status bar at the top |
| of the screen. |
| AP needed : n/a |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of LV Down
An ideal command if you want easy battles. Using the command on a
monster, not only results a decrease in the attributes such as HP,
Str and Mag, also weakens the monster's attacks. It is pretty good
against Ruby Dragons [as they have the highest HP at Level 100]. This
command is quite good as it matches well with the Bonus attributes
abilities such as HP Bonus. LV Down reduces the EXP gain and but
allows the same amount of AP gain. Yet, it will not lower down your
score, but it is time consuming.
2.1.16 LV Up [T: Level Up]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Tonberry |
| Functions : Level up your opponent's level, increasing the stats|
| causing you to gain more EXP. If you have succeeded,|
| you see the status bar at the top of screen. |
| AP needed : n/a |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of LV UP
This is an ideal command for building your characters. Note that the
stats also goes up but make the battle more difficult. The amount of
HP also increases. Good when use in conjuction with Absorb and the
bonuses attributes. You can gain a lot of EXP by fighting easier
enemies.
2.1.17 Devour [T: Eat]
______________________________________________________________________
| |
| GFs : Eden |
| Functions : A rare move. Sorry about the misleading information.|
| Not all the time that this move will cause bonuses |
| such HP. Sometimes it results to the character into |
| disorder. After all it is still a good attack, but |
| has a crappy rate. It is an INSTANT DEATH KILLING |
| MOVE. You view some scenes similar to the opening |
| FMV. [just pictures of grasslands and seasides.] |
| AP needed : n/a |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
Importance of LV Up
This is pretty unstable, yet sometimes bring in great results/bonuses.
It has a crappy hit rate, so it does not work most of the time [result
a waste of time]. It reaps in as it does an INSTANT death attack.
(Thanks to Steven Bruck for the corrections) I myself has used this
command on Geezards and received status disorder!

/ 2.2 \_________________________________________________________________
========================================================================
Junction Abilities (J)
========================================================================
In FF8, there are a few more "game" words that you are required to know
and one of them is junction. This system is very hard to explain in a
few words, but it's worth it. This system allows your characters to
become stronger and more deadly. The system make of use of magic to
boost up the character's statistics. If you want to have better
attacking power, junction magic to the character's Str through Str-J.
Refer to Basic Tutorial in Part I for more information. Typically,
there are two types and they are:
Character's Stats Junction
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* PS: For the english version, Squaresoft has use a lot of
abbreviations/symbols to denote gameplay terms. E.g. "Str" is used
to denote Strength. I would use it as it saves a lot of space. But
if you have problems refer to the list of abbreviations under the
Appendix section.
It allows you to enfuse/junction magic to the character's Hit Points
[HP], Strength [Str], Vitality(it means defense)[Vit], Magic [Mag],
Spirit [Spr], Speed [Spd], Hit [Hit rate/Hit ratio] and Eva [Evade]
The effect of junction depends on the following factors:
1. Power of the spell : Firaga will work much better to Fira.
Devastating magic such as Ultima/Tornado will
generally have a better effect of junction
as compared to Fire.
2. Number of spells : 24x of Fire will work much better to 10x of
Fire magic.
Character's Elemental Attack and Defense
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Junctioning magic to elemental attack will causes the character to do
more damage to the opposing elemental. For example, junctioning Fire
magic to Zell's Elem-Atk-J, will cause Zell to do more damage to ice/
water based monsters such as Fastitocalon-F, Glaccid Eye, etc. Junction
Fire magic to Zell's Elem-Def-J, raises Zell's defense against Fire.
Elementals are crucial important in this game. A character with Fire
junctioned to Elem-Atk-J will do more damage to Ice/Water elemental
unit as compared to a character with no elementals junctioned. See the
effect?
For elemental defense only...
However, certain spells generally only reduces the damage whereas some
spells allows your characters to absorb the damage [and received HP
instead of damage]. This is generally based on the power of spell. For
example,
Fire gives your character 50% defense against fire elemental damage.
Fira gives your character 80% defense against fire elemental damage.
Firaga gives your character 120% defense against fire elemental damage.
[i.e. 100% of damage nullified and 20% of damage absorb as restoring HP]
Below is a mini-elemental chart
____________________________________________________
| Element | Strong against | Weak against |
|----------|----------------------|------------------|
| Fire | Ice/Water | -- |
| Ice | Fire | -- |
| Water | Fire | -- |

Junctioning a status magic to ST-Atk-J such as Poison will allow the
character to causes the status elemental as he/she attacks. For example,
if you junction Bio magic to Quistis' ST-Atk-J, she will cause Poison
status disorder as she attacks her enemies. Junctioning Poison magic to
Quistis' ST-Def-J will cause Quistis to be immune against Poison status
disorder.
Status disorder can be a hinderance against your own party [which I
myself previously thought so.] but you can also use it to attack your
opponenst ("Paying an enemy back its own coin") through ST-Atk-J. The
more magic you have use, the higher the percentage that your character
have causes the status disorder. E.g. If you have junctioned 23x Bio,
there is about 23% chance that your character will cause the status
disorder, Poison. Hence 100x status spell means instant status
disorder!

Further Breakdown on Junctions
As the junction system is rather complex, I had decided to break it down
in sections for easy explanation.
First of all, you need to get used to the abbreviations. It is
typically a combination of abbreviations. Plus, they are being
frequently used in the FAQ.

Guardian Forces Abilities
========================================================================
Not only characters can gain benefits from bonuses due to junction
abilities, GF can also have the benefits but the abilities that give
them this are the GF abilities. This abilities allows them to exceed
their maximum statistics. Not all GFs can have 9999 HP, but you can
make it possible by modifying with GF items. But GFs themselves also
gain GF abilities such as GF HP +20%. Unlike party and character
abilities, tese abilities will automatically take effect the moment
that they had accquired it. Boost is regarded as the best GF ability
in the game.
Summon Magic [abbreviate as "SumMag"]
------------------------------0
These abilities allow the GFs to inflict more damage when being
summoned. [Support GFs such as the Carbuncle and Cerberus does not have
this ability as they provide support and does not attack. GF Diablos
and Cactuar are special as they does additional damage based on certain
conditions.] These abilities work like giving the GFs more firepower. It
increases the GFs' attacks. For example, it allows the GF to does 10%
more damage when it has acquired 10%. When the GF has acquired its
prequesite, the GF does not only gain an addition damage of 20% [for the
advanced ability, SumMag +20%] but it also gains an addition of 10% from
its prequisite [SumMag +10%]! The percentages are cummulative.
GF HP
------------------------------0
These abilities allow the GFs to have more HP. Not all GFs have 9999 HP
at level 100 even with all the actual abilities list. Examples are Shiva
and Quezacotl. This works like this:
As you summoned a GF, the stats of the GF will covered up the
character's HP. They will recieve damage at this moment of time, so it
is a good idea to have more HP. Once a GF has fainted in a battle [HP
drops to zero], you can't summon it anymore.
GF Boost
------------------------------0
A special GF ability, which allows you to boost up the power of the
GF's Summon Attack. Below are the key sequences and a brief description
on how to use Boost.
After you have summoned the GF, you will see the name of Summon Attack.
[a status box appears at the top screen]. Press and hold down the
Select button, next you will see a Square symbol at the right-hand
corner [similar to the Square button of your Playstation controller].
Just keep on tapping Square repeatedly to boost up the number [the
higher the number, the more damage that the GF will inflict on it's
enemies]. Refer to GF Boost for more details.

Menu Abilities
========================================================================
Menu abilities are quite interesting and great. They allow you to make
items, magic and Ammo. They also help by getting bonus items. The list
of Menu abilities can be found from Ability sub-menu. For the Japanese
names of the items, I recommend Steven Bruck's FAQ. To use these
abilities, just select it through the [Ability] Sub-Menu. At the screen,
you will see a screen of Abilities, just select one of them and you will
be to make items and magic.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Effective usage of the Ability Menu
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Magic Refinement Abilities
-------------------------------------------------------
First of all, to choose the menu that you want to use.
Next you will have the screen that look like this:
__________________________ _____________________
|Item P7 | | |
|Potion 100 | | Squall HP 2304 |
|Hi-Potion 50 | | Zell HP 1098 |
|Phoenix Down 39 | | Irvine HP 1459 |
|Magic Stone 40 | | Quistis HP 1708 |
|M-Stone Piece 79 | | Rinoa HP 1607 |
|Wizard Stone 15 | | Selphie HP 1149 |
|Spider Web 17 | |_____________________|
|Coral Fragment 9 | _____________________
|Bomb Fragment 1 | | |
|Dragon Fang 4 | | |
|Sharp Spike 44 | | |
|__________________________| |_____________________|
As you see, you will be brought to the items page where you can select
the item that you wish to be converted into magic. Just simply select
the item and then select the character which you want to make to be
stored in the inventory. Next you will see this box.
______________________________________
| Magic Stone 1x to be converted |
| 5x Thundara Magic |
| |
| Magic Stone 39 |
| Number Used 1 |
| Thundara 100 |
|______________________________________|
Here is some explainations. You will see a message on what item is
being used [including quantity, for some cases] to converted to the
statisfied amount of magic [also include quantity too.]. The first
line belongs to the stock of item [that you used for conversion]. The
second line refers to the number of that kind item being used for
conversion. The third is the number of magic that is stock in the
character's inventory [including the conversion and the stock that the
character already has].
Intermediate Magic Spells Refinement
----------------------------------------
To be exact, there are only two menu abilities of this type. After you
have select the menu ability through the [ABILITY] sub-menu, you will
see the list of characters. Select the character and you will see the
pages of the character's magic inventory. Next you can choose to convert
the magic to a higher class [certain magic can't be converted change,
that's why there some of them are greyed out.].
Shop related Menu Abilities

List of Magic
========================================================================
Magic are very often use in combats in Final Fantasy Series, especially
used in the previous series. Magic also gives you the edge in combat
against enemies. In FF8, magic can be drawn from Draw Points and
enemies.
Magic is really helpful in battles, beside they does damage to your
enemies, they also help you to restore lost HP. To use magic command,
you must equip the GF, along with the command, Magic. Refer to Command
section for how to use magic.
But in FF8, you don't need to use MP to cast magic, instead you need to
stock them and they are meant for one-time usage. You can get magic
through refinment [those refinement menus end with a "Mag-RF"], draw it
from enemies [not all spells can be drawn from the basic monsters, e.g.
Ultima] or draw it from Draw Points. In other words, the Draw Command
works hand-in-hand with the Magic Command. You can also advance your
magic to more powerful magic through menu abilities such as Alexander's
Hi Mag-RF or Quezacotl's Mid Mag-RF.
Notes:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unable-regenerate Draw Points
Certain Draw Points can only be drawn once and they will change into
blue after the initial drawing of spells. A good example is the Draw
Point at the Library of Balamb Garden.
Do you know?
It is possible that you will be able to cast 2 to 3 spells in a row,
provided that you have stocked the magic during your last command.
That is to cast Double or Triple and you will be able to cast spells
in a single turn.

Tips on becoming an effective magic user!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before you read the section below, here is some important rules about
using magic in FF8.
1. NEVER ever use same-elemental based magic on the same-elemental
monsters. It will not does damage on them or they will absorb the
damage instead. [In other words, the damage restores lost HP]. One
good example is casting Fire on the Ifrit.
The following points are associated with elemental rules [which has
been covered in detail under the Junction Abilities section.]
2. Fire-based monsters are basically weak against Cold/Water-based
spells. This also applies vice-versa.
3. Humans basically are weak against status disorder and Poison.
Poison, on the other hand, has no effect on mechnical monsters.
4. Lightning/Water/Cold works best against mechnical beasts. Fire
works quite well on Poison-based monsters. Wind works well against
flying creatures, but there are exceptions and one good example is
the Bahamut.
5. Holy works best against undead monsters. Curative magic is good
example of Holy-elemental spell.
The following questions briefly describes the Magic system of FF8.
6. The damage inflicts by Magic depends solemnly on the Mag
attributes of the character. Example, a character with Mag 136 will
do more damage than a character will Mag 79 with the same spell.
This also effects the drawing of magic spells. The higher the stats,
the more benefits the character will do with using Magic.
7. Characters levelled do get mag points bonus [also applies to other
stats.]. However, you can also raises the stats by using sources
such as Mag Up [It's a junk item that increases Mag +1]. You can
also make use of Mag Bonus [a character ability that allows the
character to gain additional Mag +1 per level up (it must be
equipped to take effect)]
8. I have added the junction chart effect to the spell list. The chart
takes effect when there are 100x spells of that kind of magic. How
to read the chart? Here is the list of abbreviations:

How the junctioning works...
Let's say that Squall's maximum HP is 1430. If you junction Fire to his
HP through HP-J, his HP will increase by 100, making 1530! This applies
when 100x Fire is being junctioned to it. There is a great FAQ about
magic junctioning, refer to fuuie's Magic Junction FAQ for more details.
(fuuie@oldcrows.net), which is also available at GameFAQs.
Apocalypse can be only draw from the final boss. I got the spell via
gameshark.

Elemental Junction Chart
------------------------------------------------------------------------
All elementals: Fire, Ice, Thunder, Wind, Water, Bio, Earth and Holy
How Junctioning works for Elements?
** Elemental Attack
Example used: Fire
If your character attack on a monster with has a cold-elemental monster
[Glaccid Eye] and cost 230 HP damage without Fire being junctioned to
that character's Elem-Atk-J. But when 100x Fire is being junctioned to
that character, he/she will does 50% more damage to the same monster
with the same strength stats. [about 345 HP damage]. However, please
note that it work not work on the cases of Bombs [fire-elemental
monsters]. Instead the damage will reduced by 50%. Worst of all when
100x Firaga is being junction that character, he/she will inflict no
damage on the Bomb!
** Elemental Defence
Example used: Fire, Fira, Firaga
If your character receives 136 HP from the Fire spell cast by the Bomb,
it will be a different case when Fire/Fira/Firaga are being junctioned
to that character.
- Fire: Receives about 68 HP damage [that's 50% less]
- Fire 2: Receives only about 27 HP damage [that's about 80% less]
- Fire 3: Receives no damage and absorb about 27 HP! [that's a
reversal!]
This applies to the equipped elemental magic [yeah.. Not all magic can
be used in elemental junctions, examples are status magic.]. If 100x
Ultima is being junctioned to character's Elem-Def-J, he/she will
receive no damage from all elementals [Fire, Ice, Thunder, Earth,
Wind, Water, Poison and Holy]

Status Junction Chart
------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW IT WORKS:
** Status Attack
Example used: Bio
Your character will causes the status disorder as he/she attacks. The
rate of the character causing Poison depends on the number of spells
that you have junction to that character's ST-Atk-J. Please note that
Sometimes it doesn't work. Poison has no effect on mechnical beasts and
beasts that nullifies them [Malboro are a good example]. Not all the
times, that the character will cause Poison on the monsters. It depends
mostly on Luck.
** Status Defense
Example used: Death
Your character will never be instantly killed when 100x Death spells
are being junctioned. This causes the character to be immune to
instant death. You can increase the percentage of immune to death, by
junctioning both Life [20% immune] and Full-life [40% immune], thus
making that character 60% immune to Death! This principle also applies
to Elemental Attack/Defense.
Below is the chart about ST-Def-J.

List of Magic
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Below is the list of magic that you can find FF8. I have also added the
description of the magic and facts about the magic. BTW, I have also add
a group symbol as magic is being classified as the following:
Symbol Actual word
(Elem) Elemental magic - magic that carries one of the 8 basic
elementals.
(ST) Status magic - magic that does non-elemental damage and
causes status disorder.
(Supt) Support magic - magic that enhances the character like
increasing defense, faster ATB, etc.
(Cura) Curative magic - magic that restores Hit Points and also
revives KO'd characters.
(Forb) Forbidden magic - magic that are rare and hard to find.
Does multiple elemental or non-elemental damage.
-------------------------------
Fire, Fira, Firaga
------------------------------- (elem)
[T: Fire, Fira, Firaga]
Fire : Weak fire-based damage against one opponent. Just a spark
of fire surrounds one foe.
Fira : Medium fire-based damage against one opponent. A blast of
a cloud of fire from the ground.
Firaga : Strong fire-based damage against one opponent. A beam of
light appears from the opponents' body and followed by
a thermal explosion!
FACTS:
Good against cold/water-based monsters. Do not use it on fire-based
monsters, as fire-based monsters could absorbs the damage or your
character can't inflict any damage. It is also pretty useless against
fire-based BOSS such as the Ifrit.
------------------------------
Blizzard, Blizzara, Blizzaga
------------------------------ (Elem)
[T: Ice, Ice 2, Ice 3]
Blizzard : Weak cold-based damage against one opponent. A gathering
of icicles at the opponents, followed by a fall.
Blizzara : Medium cold-based damage against one opponent. A huge
icicle appears from the ground.
Blizzaga : Strong cold-based damage against one opponent. A huge
iceberg araises from the ground.
FACTS:
Good against fire-based monsters. Do not use it on ice-based monsters
as ice-based monsters as these could absorbs the damage or your
character can't inflict any damage.
------------------------------
Thunder, Thundara, Thundaga
------------------------------ (Elem)
[T: Bolt, Bolt 2, Bolt 3]
Thunder : Weak thunder-based damage against one opponent. A strand
of bolt appears from the surrounding.
Thundara : Medium thunder-based damage against one opponent. Three
swift strands of lightning struck at one foe.
Thundaga : Strong thunder-based damage against one opponent. A
gigantic explosion and thus charging the foe with electric
bolts.
FACTS:
This spell is good against mechnical monsters. Use it to give them an
electric shock! It does not work against thunder-based units [there are
quite few of them] such as Raijin. Hence my conclusion is that thunder
works well most of the time.
------------------------------
Scan
------------------------------ (Supt)
[T: Libra or Scan]
Scan : Allows you to scan data and information on the targeted
foe such as their attributes for strength [STR],
intelligence [INT], dexrity [DEX], defense [DEF], spirit
[SPI] and evasion [EVA]. It also gives information on it's
weakness and a short description of the foe like its origin.
A sonar appears from the character's body and thus focus on
the monster with the words "TARGET". This followed by a
detailed information on the stats of the targeted monster.
FACTS:
You will get the description during your first attempt to sense an
opponent's data and weakness. However in the second attempt, you will
NOT received the description and the scan will just automatically end
by itself. [But you can make some ammendments at the Options screen].
You can flip or turn around units with D-Pad.
Press X to exit from information screen during the first attempt.
------------------------------
Cure, Cura, Curaga, Regen
------------------------------ (Cura)
[T: Cure, Cure 2, Cure 3, Regen]
Cure : Weak healing magic against one ally. A refreshing spin of
blue light surrounds your character.
Cura : Medium healing magic against one ally. A refreshing circles
of blue light started to enclose your character.
Curaga : Strong healing magic against one ally. A beam of blue light
appears from the character's body.
Regen : Regenarate HP slowly at a time. White strands of energy
curls and pink spots surrounds the lower portion of the
character's body.
FACTS:
This magic allows you to restores lost HP. The more powerful the
healing magic is, the more lost HP will be restored. This magic can be
used as an attack against undead monsters such as Gerogero and Abadon.
This spell is gradually weakens on a person who has Shell status.
That's the side effect. Just change it...
------------------------------
Esuna
------------------------------ (Supt)
Esuna : Average curing magic against one ally. A blue beam of light
appears from the ground and thus removing all status disorder
[those negatives ones]
FACTS:
The magic allows you to cure status disorder such as Darkness, Silence,
etc. This is an equivalent of the Remedy. This spell cannot be used
when the character is being silenced. Hence, in certain occassions, the
Remedy or Treatment is much preferred over this spell.
------------------------------
Life, Full-life
------------------------------ (Cura)
[T: Life, Raise]
Life : Works like a Phoenix Down. Restores Life to one ally. Pink
dots surrounds and followed by green light. About a small
portion of HP is being recovered.
Full-life : Restores Life and refill the MAX HP to one ally. The
screen darkens a bit and followed by a couple of reviving
feathers fall on the dead member.
FACTS:
Life recovers one dead ally and restore a portion of HP. Full-life
recovers one dead ally and restore fully of HP. This spell works well
against undead, resulting an instant death! Life/Full-life works
extremely well with 100x Zombie junctioned to ST-Atk-J Combo!
------------------------------
Reflect
------------------------------ (Supt)
Reflect : This magic causes magic that is being cast on your party
to be reflect onto your opponent. A green barrier made
of green beams covers up your character.
FACTS:
This magic allows you to force magic spells to "bounce" back onto
your opponents. This magic is pretty useful when used appropiately.
Do not cast healing magic on yourself or it will be bounced onto your
opponents. Personally, I do not quite like this spell as it provide
trouble in certain occasions. Besides, not all spells will be reflect
and those spells are those damaging ones such as Tornado and Flare.
Hence, use Medicine items to restore lost HP when your characters are
under the Reflect status.
Spells that can't be reflected:
Ultima, Aero, Flare, Holy, Meteor, Wind, Tornado, Water, Demi, Dispel,
and Quake.
------------------------------
Protect
------------------------------ (Supt)
[T: Barrier]
Protect : Generally, it reduces physical damage. This spell also causes
Vit attributes of a member to increases temporarily. It is an
averge physical defensive barrier on one ally. An imaginary
barrier surrounds the character.
FACTS:
This magic allows you to reduce damage that are caused by physical
damage. The magic is pretty useful against enemies that depends
mostly on physical damage. Generally it reduces damage about half,
based on Mag stats of the character. Physical damage refers to not only
normal swipes or claws attacks, but also includes non-elemental damage
such as Ruby Dragon's Breath
-----------------------------
Shell
----------------------------- (Supt)
[T: Shield]
Shell : This spell applies to same purposes as the Magic Barrier
in FF7. This spell reduces magic attacks by half. Magical
defensive barrier for one ally. A pink coloured shield
surrounds the character.
FACTS:
This spell is pretty effective against BOSS that solemnly depends on
magic. One good example is the final BOSS of Disc 1, Edea. Please note
that this gradually weakens all the healing spells [such as Cure] as it
reduces "damage" done by magic. To avoid that downfall, make full use of
GF Leviathan's Recover and Medicine items
-----------------------------
Double, Triple
----------------------------- (Supt)
Double : Allows you to cast a Magic twice on one ally.
Diamonds [pink] appears at four corners on the character
and the word "DOUBLE" is seen.
Triple : Allows you to cast a Magic triple on one ally. Diamonds
[yellow-green] appears at the four corners of the
character and the word "TRIPLE" is seen.
FACTS:
A very useful spell. Double allows you to cast a spell twice in a row.
Think about the damage caused if you use Ultima. Triple is even much
better as it will cause you to cast a spell thrice in a row. Think of
the Area Heal in Brigandine! Sorry about the misleading information.
I myself personally think that this spell is used to replaced the All
Materia combo in FF7. But unfortunately, only a few monsters have
these spells for you to draw. It works better if you have acquired
Expend x2-1 or Expend x3-1.
------------------------------
Demi
------------------------------ (Supt)
[T: Gravide]
Demi : Reduces a foe's present HP to 3/4. A black cloud with
blue strands gathers at the body of the opponent and thus
"magnify" the image of the monster. Works well against
high HP BOSSES.
FACTS:
Demi may does low damage due to different opponent's maximum HP
capacity. But they can do tons of reducing a strong foe to weak one.
Hence, use it wisely. Demi can't kill any enemy, but they generally
weakens an enemy by reducing the HP. [which will be in good condition
to card them or mug-and-kill.] This spell provides an headache too for
BOSSES too as it simply does 9999 HP damage against high-HP foes! But
remember Demi does not work on most BOSSES.
------------------------------
Aero, Tornado
------------------------------ (Elem)
[T: Wind, Tornado]
Aero : Averge wind-based damage against one foe. A cloud of
wind appears from the ground.
Tornado : Powerful wind-based damage against all foes. A huge cloud
of powerful wind attacks appear from the ground, raising
your characters in mid-air and followed by a thud!
FACTS:
Wind is basically the killer weapon against flying, swooping
creatures. Wind is pretty effective against most BOSS except for
Fujin in Disc 2. Tornado works well as it effects all opponents in
the battlefield.
-------------------------------
Water
------------------------------- (Elem)
Water : Average water-based damage against one foe. A bubble of water
gathers at the opponent and force the opponent into mid-air
and thus followed by as splash!
FACTS:
Water is basically a good elemental against Fire-based monsters. Cold/
Water-based monsters receives no damage from this elemental. Water
works well against most monsters in the desert.
------------------------------
Float
------------------------------ (Supt)
[T: Flight]
Float : Allows your character to float in mid-air with the aid of a
pair of giant wings [like an Angel ^_^] Your character will
float in mid-air, but will be back on the ground once you
have selected a command.
FACTS:
This spell has a temporarily effect just like Regen. The Float spell
can be used to protect your characters from Earth-based attacks! [
Thanks to Ana C.J. Carvalho!]. There is another method. This spell is
very destructive against earth-powered BOSSES such as the Brothers
[this stop them from regenarating their HP, remember that they are
earth-powered GFs !]. Thanks to Stephanus Rudiyanto Natari for this
valuable information. This spell can protect your character from
Quake and also increase evasion.
-----------------------------
Dispel
----------------------------- (Supt)
Despell : Removes positive status [Regen, Aura, Haste and much more
from the targeted character]. A blue-blue cloud appears and
followed by a breaking sound.
FACTS:
Another effective spell against Iron Giants at the Warship Island. This
spell removes the spells such as Regen, Aura, Haste, Reflect, Shell,
Protect and Float. This spell works well if you are tired of your spells
being reflected off.
-----------------------------
Meteor
----------------------------- (Forb)
Meteor : Very damaging magic, summons several meteors which affect all
foes. Non-elemental damage to all foes. A black spot appears
at the screen followed by a clashing series of meteor strike
on all foes.
FACTS:
A great spell and a damaging one. It can does tons of damaging to all
enemies [200+ with each strike and there are about 10+ of them]. Save
for BOSSES fight for its high damaging attacks. Watch out for repeating
vibration on your Analog controller!
-----------------------------
Ultima
----------------------------- (Forb)
Ultima : Obviously the most damaging magic in Final Fantasy Series.
Does 9000+ to all foes [provide you have strong magic
strength stats.] The screen darkens and beams of light
gathers together and followed by a green explosion of
energy. Non-elemental attack against all foes.
FACTS:
A great spell for junction as it raises the highest stats among all
spells. This spell works best and so stock up some for BOSS fights.
-----------------------------
Apocalypse
----------------------------- (Forb)(hidden)
Apocalyse : This spell is a secret spell. Chunks of starring energy
gathers together and followed by a blast at all foes
and an explosion! [looks similar for Ultima]. It has the
longest japanese lettering.
FACTS:
A better spell, much better than Ultima. Effects all monsters within
that battlefield. This spell is very damaging. I have obtained this
through gameshark. Provides all defence against all elements. You can
draw this spell from the final boss.
-----------------------------
Holy
----------------------------- (Forb)
Holy : Another damaging spell. Great against undead. White bubbles
gather together and thus forming a beam of white light at
one foe!
FACTS:
Quite an useful spell as it does a fairly amount of damage. It is
rather weak against BOSS such as the Omega Weapon. Holy does its most
against undead.
-----------------------------
Flare
----------------------------- (Forb)+(Elem)
Flare : Another destructive spell. Non-elemental damage to one foe.
Beams of yellow-golden light appears followed by an explosion.
Quite a damging spell.
FACTS:
This spell is very damaging and packs a punch. Stock up some for BOSS
fights. Great against BOSSES.
------------------------------
Quake
------------------------------ (Elem)
Quake : Earth-based elemental damage against all foes. The ground
started to crack and followed by a repeating shaking of
land.
FACTS:
Earth is pretty effective against all land-based monsters or foes. It
does no damage or simply misses against flying-based monsters. Quake
works well against crawler type such as the Geezards or Caterchipillar.
-----------------------------
Aura
----------------------------- (Supt)
Aura : A new spell that has been newly introduced into the FF
series. This spell allows your character to use their
Limit Breaks. Just tap Triangle repeatedly and you will see
a cursor pointing towards right next to the Attack command.
Press and hold Right and you will be able to use your
character's Limit Breaks. Golden light surrounds one ally.
FACTS:
Aura is rather difficult to find. If you have acquired, use it wisely
as they will does tremendous damage to all opponents. (indirectly).
Please refer to the "Limit Breaks" section for details. Make full use
of Supt Mag-RF and Tool-RF as you are be able to create an handful of
these! You can get this by drawing from Seifer in the final battle of
Disc 3 or at the borders of the Island closest to Hell or Heaven.
-----------------------------
Haste, Slow, Stop
----------------------------- (Supt)+(ST)
Haste : Speeds up the time bar of the effected character for a
temporarily period of time. A yellow icon with a handle
appears and the ATB changes to pink.
Slow : Slows up the time bar of the effected person for a
temporarily period of time. A purple icon with a handle
appears and the ATB changes to purple.
Stop : Stops the time of the effected person for a short period of
time. A Roman-lettering clock appears and causes the
character to freeze.
FACTS:
Haste is one of the best spells in FF series. They could help in
speeding up your time bar, which allows you to inflict more damage in
a short period of time. Slow, on the other, is a status disorder-based
magic. It will slows down the time bar of the effected person. Stop
could be extremely dangerous as the effective person would be frozen,
could not attack nor defend. All the status disorder [Slow and Stop]
can be removed by using the Remedy, Esuna and Treatment. Whereas Haste
can be removed by using Dispel.
------------------------------
Blind
------------------------------ (ST)
Blind : This magic causes Darkness on your opponent. This will
decrease hit rate of your foe. This magic causes status
disorder. A black cloud covers the character's head,
reduces the rate of Hit rate.
FACTS:
This magic can counterattacked with Esuna, Eye Drops, Remedy or the
Treatment Command. This status disorder still remained after battles
if not counterattacked. Blind is a pretty good status when junctioned
to ST-Atk-J where you can beat up the Bahamut like a wimp!
-----------------------------
Silence
----------------------------- (ST)
[T: Silent]
Silence : This magic will generate a magic that forces an opponent
to be unable to use magic. White strands appears and
surrounds the character. Now you will see a speech bubbles
with "..." appearing. Your character will be able to use
ONLY the attack command.
FACTS:
This status disorder can be removed by using Esuna, Echo Screen,
Remedy, or the Treatment command. This status disorder still remained
after battles if not counterattacked. It seals any magic-type commands
and there are only two, Magic and Draw command.
-----------------------------
Sleep
----------------------------- (ST)
[T: Sleepel]
Sleep : This magic will causes your opponent to see stars and
eventually fall into deep sleep. ZZZZ.. This will also
causes the character's time bar to stop.
Facts:
This status disorder can only be removed by using the Esuna, Remedy,
Treatment command or a critical attack. The status disorder is instantly
removed when the character is being attacked. The status disorder can
only last during the battle. A damaging status disorder as it makes the
character most vulunerable. It is also a useful spell, as while your
opponent is sleeping, summon your GFs to dealt damage or use your Limit
Breaks!
----------------------------
Confuse
---------------------------- (ST)
[T: Confu]
Confuse : One of the most deadly status disorder magic in FF series.
This magic will cause your character attack each other. The
magic will generate a huge bird [more like a Chocobo to me]
and the affected person will twirl in circles, attacking
using the attack command only. Sometimes the character ends
up attacking oneself, even his/her teammates.
Facts:
This status disorder can only be removed by using the Esuna, Remedy or
Treatment. This status disorder last until the end of the battle. This
status disorder is one of the most hazardous in FF series. The spell
results your character in total chaos, like using Blizzaga on oneself,
not necessary the attack command! You can't countered it but only
prevention by equip Ribbon or ST-Def-J <-> 100x Confuse.
---------------------------
BIO
--------------------------- (ST)(Elem)
BIO : A green gas generated around the opponent's head, thus removing
small chunks of HP in each turn. Green bubbles appear and thus
forming a green cloud.
FACTS:
This status disorder can only be removed by using Treatment, Esuna,
Antidote or the Remedy. This magic is useless against mechnical
beasts but very effective against human beings. The opponent will
received damage from the initial attack followed by repeated attacks
when the affected character reaches his/her turns. This status also
lasted even after the battles. But the character's HP is still
unaffected while on the world map.
--------------------------
Berserk
-------------------------- (ST)
Berserk : A very dangerous status disorder. When cast on an ally,
it will results the ally doing ONLY physical attacks.
The effected opponent/ally will be burning red. The time
bar also speeds up.
FACTS:
This status disorder can be removed by using Esuna, Treatment or
Remedy. This spell DOES NOT HARM! (It does not dealt any serious
damage to the character but it causes you to lose control of that
character!) Instead, you will just lost control of the effected
character and that character will just keep on attacking [using Attack
command and unable to use magic]. You prevent this by using 100x
Berserk junctioned to ST-Def-J
--------------------------
Zombie
-------------------------- (ST)
Zombie : The effect person will be greenish in colour and his/her
time bar will move extremely slow. The character will
instantly becomes an undead.
FACTS:
Sorry about the misleading information. The spell actually changes
your character in a zombie. At that time, I am still not sure what is
it's function, but when I use Recover on Zell [where the spell has
already being cast on him, Zell's HP instantly drops to zero!] You can
only counter this with Esuna, Holy Water, Remedy or Treatment command.
-------------------------
Death
------------------------- (ST)
Death : This move always misses but with it hit, the opponent will
be down to instant death. This summons a Devil from the
ground.
FACTS:
One of the most deadly magic in FF8 which will result to instant
death of enemy. To get most of these, draw from Tonberry that is found
in Centra Ruins.
------------------------
Drain
------------------------ (Supt)(ST)
Drain : This spell is rather rare and hard to get. This spell
produces purple bubbles and a part of the monster's HP is
being drain off!
FACTS:
Quite good if your characters are low on HP. This spell works well
against HP monsters such as the monsters found the Island closest to
Hell and Heaven. BTW, 100x Drain junctioned to ST-Atk-J is really a
good combo but it will definitely put your character in dangerous
position against undead.
-----------------------
Meltdown
----------------------- (Supt)
Merton: It is just a white blast of energy which stretches the
opponent. You can get this spell by drawing from Gayla when
Squall is at Level 50+.
FACTS:
According to my pal [Sung Kato], this spell does not only inflicts huge
damage and it also gradually weakens the defensive stats of a defensive
monsters. This is a good spell as your character could inflict more
damage [let's says if you can do only 3,000+ usually, not you inflict
more (about 3x more damage.)]. Meltdown can also causes a status
disorder known Vit 0 [the effected unit will be pink in colour]
-----------------------
Break
----------------------- (ST)
[T: Petrify]
Break : Grey mountain rocks appears from the ground and thus
enclosing the monster. The monster will then freezes and
resulting gaining no EXP, AP and item.
FACTS:
In fact, one of the best spells that allows you to scrap past battles
without much trouble. The only weak point is that the spell has a
crappy hit rate and it is rather hard to find.
The character will instantly freezes and a block of white coating
surrounds the character. The good point is that there is no chance of
recovery unless you have Esuna/Remedy/Treatment/Soft. Please note that
if all your characters are being petrified, it's gameover!
----------------------
Pain
---------------------- (ST)
[T: Curse]
Pain : Red wind appears and circulates around the opponent and thus
causing status disorder such as Poison, Darkness, Silence
and Confusion.
FACTS:
Sorry about the misleading information. This spell is generally a
compound of Bio, Blind, Silence and Confuse. It will cause all those
status disorder at the same time! It is also quite a good spell for
junctioning on ST-Def-J as it protects your character against most
status disorder.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, that's the end of the Magic section.

========================================================================
The Card Game - Triple Triad
========================================================================
A brief introduction...
In FF8, you get to play a card game! You could collect cards of
monsters, BOSSES, GFs and even your character's cards. Please note that
the card game is really popular among the townfolks in FF8. You can
played against players in cities and towns. Before you can begin a card
game, please talk to the man [CC Group Spade] at the elevator early in
the game. He will give you a couple of cards, about 7 of them. With the
cards, just press Square and you will be able to challenge players
around the world.
The game is being played on 3x3 Board. You need to play the card
adjacent to each other to attack. The card which has the higher number
will causes the defending card to be switch to your side. Of course,
the card game will not be this simple. Generally, there are additional
rules in different areas of world. You need to have at least five cards
in the game. Before I begin with the card game rules and objective,
let's proceed on the breakdown of cards.
_____
/ 4.1 \_________________________________________________________________
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Types of Cards
------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can access your cards from the Card sub-menu from the main menu. You
will find the type of cards that you have owned and the number of cards
you have gotten. You can get multiple cards of the same card type. But
as for the GFs and characters' card, you can only get new copies in Disc
4.
When should I start to collecting Monster and BOSS cards?
Before you start to collect rare cards. You need to have them to as the
supporting cast to complete your collection. Try to get as many cards
once you have gotten Angelo's card from Watts.
........................................................................
Monster
The most common lot of the set of cards in FF8. You can obtained this
set of cards by winning card games or use the card command on Monsters.
Overall, this type of cards is really easy to get as you can even get
them by winning battles.
Don't look down on them [due to their low attributes status]. They can
be rather damaging against poweful cards (provided additional rules
have been used. Such as PLUS and SAME rules are being set]!
The cards ranged from level 1 ~ 5. There is a rare card under this set
of cards and that's the PuPu's card. [this card is extremely rare but
you can get it by solving the UFO Sighting Incident]. But remember
that King Tonberry's card along with Biggs and Wedge's card are not
considered under this category. They are BOSS cards.
........................................................................
BOSS
There is probabilty that you can change a BOSS into a card through the
card command. This can be an headache as they has the highest stats of
8! They can only be obtained through card battles. [Level 5 ~ 7 (page 5
including the Biggs and Wedge Card and the King Tonberry's Card]. Refer
to Steven Bruck's Card FAQ for the stats. Page 7 Cards are commonly
found with "good" players such as Dobe and Flo, Card Master of Dollet,
Card Queen, CC Group, Martine, Watts and Zone. BOSSES card stats can be
found at Steven Bruck's Card FAQ.
........................................................................
GFs
Hey! Is Angelo considered as a GF? The card is found along with the
GFs. Cards, like the Brothers [very good-corner cards], can be obtained
as you have defeated them. GF cards are considered rare as there is
only one of it's kind [until time compression]. Many people dislike the
idea of changing these cards for special items, but do you know? Even
if you have a sacrificed a card [provided that you completed the card
collection, the star (which represents certificate that proves that you
have completed the cards collection) will still remains! Refer to
Precious Cards Section/Steven Bruck's FAQ /Eugene See's FAQ for details
in getting the cards. The highest stats ranging from 8~A! You can
recover them at the Ragnarok during Disc 4.
........................................................................
Character
These cards are the most unique and very difficult to get as they
possesses astonishing stats such as 9 and A! They are extremely diffcult
to beat if the weak points of the card are being sealed off. They have
gradually weak points, especially against Plus and Same. I myself did
not quite like Rinoa's card has weak ends and can only be used if the
corners are sealed. These cards are hard to obtain, and you are going
to take a long time to get them. Refer to Precious Cards Section/
Steven Bruck's FAQ/ Eugene's FAQ for more details.

========================================================================
Frequently Asked Questions
========================================================================
Q1: How do I obtained the cards ?
A: Cards can be obtained in the following ways:
1. Beat the Card Game against other opponents
2. Defeating the monsters [rare]
3. Talk to the people [rare]
4. Defeating GF monsters
5. Defeating BOSSES [rare]
6. Use Card Command.
7. Completing Quest [rare]
Q2: How do I played the game?
A: The rules and methods of playing the game is listed below. A brief
ASCII art of the game is being illstruated below:
ASCII ART OF THE BOARD
___________________________________
| | | | Your deck of cards will be

ASCII ART of a Card [not drawn to scale] <In Card Menu>
______________
| ____ |
| * | | | LEGEND=========================
|* * | | | * Cards attacking power and
| * |____| | attributes
| | [] Picture of the Monster
| E | E Elemental of Monster. E.g.
| | Bombs has elemental of fire.
|______________| ===============================
Each Card has four numbers/attributes, written in 4 directions: North,
South, East, West. The numbers play a major role in the game. As the
higher the number that the card has, the more powerful it will be. [
But it will be a different story if you have consider Full Wall/ Same
and Plus] The numbers also depend on the monsters' abilities too.
Oops I had forgotten to mention in the last update that you can get
those lost "rare" cards from the people that you have lost to them.
Forgotten their name? You will find the name of the person, who
currently owned the card at the AREA section. There is a status bar
located down there.
Q3: What is the purpose of Elementals?
A: They are elemental icons which are found the boards. They could
boost up the stats of the corresponding cards if the card of the
same elemental is being placed on it. [E.g. Ifrit's stats will
increase by 1 when placed on a Fire elemental.] However there
are also side effects about these elementals. Example: If the
Ifrit card is being placed on other elementals, the stats will
go down by 1.
========================================================================
Tips in playing the game / Basics
========================================================================
1. This depends on the rules of the game, you may get to pick your own
cards, that you have in your deck. If so, choose your cards very
wisely. Let's says if you have lost your best card, I suggest that
you better retreat from the game. Otherwise, your cards have a high
chance of being losed.
2. Firstly, one of the player is randomly choosen to go first. At
this moment, the card can be placed to on any spot of board. Next
the other player will allow to place his/her card on the board, not
necessary being placed adjacent to the opponent's card.
3. Once a card is being placed next to the opponent card, the numbers
that are in place are being compared. The attacker's attributes [the
numbers] is higher, the defending card changes its colour and will
be taken by the other player until it is being flip over.
4. It is possible for a card to take 4 other cards in a single move
(if placed properly, in middle spot). But that's near impossible.
5. At the begining of the game, you will be asked to choose five of
your cards. (proved that the Random rule is not being enabled)
If you have less than 5 cards, the player will not played the game
with you. (before the card game.
6. Your colour section will be blue while your opponent's colour
section will be pink.
7. You can only change the colour of the card on attacking. Rules
such Same /Plus will come so sudden that you don't believe that
you had turn so many..
8. If you win the game, you will be allowed to choose your opponent's
card. If you have lost the game, the computer will pick one of your
cards. Sometimes it does not apply! [based on trade rules.
9. When the Elemental rule is being applied, you will find elements on
the board. If a card of a different element/no element is placed on
the board, this will produce a negative effect [number minus 1]. On
the other hand, if a card with the same element is placed on it, it
will produce a positive effect of +1.
10. I myself has invented a SURE-WIN strategy and never has a loss
[unless Plus or Same is applied]
First of all, you must have accquired the Ifrit's Card, Diablos'
Card, The Brothers'[Minotaur and Sacred] Cards and a Tonberry's
Card or better. Here are the 3 start-off points:
1. Place Minotaur in Square No.9
2. Place Sacred in Square No.3
3. Place Diablos in Square No. 1
Refer to the ASCII art of the board game. In this way, you
will seal off most of the weak points leaving only the good
ones against your opponent. [This strategy does not work
quite well when Plus/Same/Same Wall is applied]
11. When the Random rule takes effect, the computer will not allow
you to choose your own cards, so play at your own risk! Instead,
the cards were being chosen at random.
12. There are special cards such as cards of GF and even cards of
the cast for the game. A is best and 1 is the weakest.
13. There is a person called the Card Queen. There is also a card
organisation called the CC Group (very powerful and difficult
to beat.)

not be turn if placed to cards which has more powerful attributes.
Example No. 3
LEFT: Attacking Card RIGHT: Defending Card
Description:
The left card's number 3 may be smaller than the right card's number 7,
but there will be NO colour change.

Now I guess you should have understood the basics of the card game,
hence let's proceed to the intermediate rules.
Terms used in the game.... [ADVANCED MOVES]
This section can be found in the Tutorial menu. The guide is about 13
pages. Thanks to Jesus Zhu for the corrections.

________|________|r2________
| 4 | | (4) |
| 2 (1) | <---- |(1) 6 |
| 7 | | 2 |
|________|r1 |________|b1
This is rather a special rule. As the blue card is being placed at that
spot, both r1 and r2 will change it colours! As r1's 1 is corresponding
to b1's 1 and r2's 4 is corresponding to b1's 4.

________|________|r2 ________
| 4 | | (4) |
| 2 (5)| <---- | (2) 6 |
| 7 | | 2 |
|________|r1 |________|b1
One of the most destructive rule that you must know while playing the
card game. Here you need to do some mental calcuations. As the sum is
the same [7], both the red ones will change it's colour.
** C O M B O **

| 4 | | 4 |
|_________|r1 |________|b1
| 1 |
| 2 6 |
| 7 |
|_________|r2
This will causes all the cards to change into blue colour. b1's number
3 is more powerful than r1 which in turn, the transformed r1's number 4
is more powerful than r2's number 1.

A great rule as you see the corresponding numbers [5] is in line with
one another. As a result all the red ones will change blue!
Guidelines...
Here is some guidelines for playing the card game:
1. Take note of the rules of the card game before you begin to play
the game. This is very important.
2. Think what could your opponent do when the card is being placed
down. Some players are very smart!
3. Hide the weakest point of your cards in corners or the edges of
the board. Attack the weakest point of a strong card to gain
possession. Make full use of PLUS and SAME rule. So never look down
on lousy cards.
4. The summary of rules is given before the card game. I am trying to
make a translation of it. Need help...

Rules of The Card Game
(contributed by Jesus Zhu)
========================================================================
Information On The Card Queen by Steven Bruck/Jesus Zhu
The rumour on the Card Queen is true! In fact you will meet her at the
entrance of the train station [Balamb Town]. She looks quite similar to
Aeris of FF7. She has a couple of great cards and a formidible opponent!
As you talk to her, you will be given the following options:
1) Change / Add Rules in the area
She will tell about the current rules in the area. If you want to
edit, pay 30,000 gil and she could change or add the rules if you
wished to. Note that you can't specific the rule that you want to
remove or add.
2) See current trade rule
3) Tell me about the rules.
List of Rules and their brief description:
______________________________________________________________________
| | |
| RULES | DESCRIPTION |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| Open | The computer and Squall will play the game with the |
| | cards uncovered. |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| Sudden | If the game ends in a draw, you will have to play |
| Death | another card game, until one wins. Note that the card |
| | that you have won from the previous is NOW in your deck|
| | if the game ends up with a draw. For example, let's say|
| | that you are getting the MiniMog's card from the boy. |
| | You managed to convert the card, but the game ends at |
| | at tie. In the next battle, you will have the MiniMog's|
| | card in your deck! Same applies if you lost the Ifrit |
| | to your opponent in the previous battle. The opponent |
| | will control the Ifrit's Card, not you. |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| Elemental | If this rule is active, you find icons representing |
| | elementals like fire, ice, earth, wind, thunder, etc. |
| | Just say if you see a fire-elemental on the board and |
| | place the Ifrit Card on it. All sides of the Ifrit will|
| | increases by 1. However if you place the Minotaur card |
| | on the fire-elemental. All sides of the Minotaur will |
| | be minus by one! |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| Same | If this rule is active, if you attack with a card with |
| | the same numbers for each end it'll change the colours |
| | of the defending ones. Refer to advance moves for more |
| | details. |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| Plus | If this rule is active, you can change the colour of |
| | defending cards if the addition of the numbers for each|
| | end is equal. Refer to advance moves for more details |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| Direct | If this rule is active, you will be able to get the |
| | converted cards from the battle whether you have win or|
| | lost the game. The computer will picks those cards that|
| | have converted into yours. I found this rule when I |
| | play the card game against Quistis. I have lost the |
| | card game, but managed to convert the Gilgamesh's Card |
| | So this rule sometimes do bring some good news! |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| All | Winner will receive all the cards from the defeated |
| | player. I generally like this rule when you are trying |
| | expand your card collection. |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| One | Winner will be allowed to select one card from the |
| | defeated card player's five cards. |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| Diff | Winner will receive defeated cards from the loser |
| | according to the Card's Score |
| | Card's Score |
| | Win lose Choose a card |
| | 7 - 3 = 2 Winner could choose 2 cards |
| | 6 - 4 = 1 Winner could choose 1 card |
| | 9 - 1 = 4 Winner could choose 4 cards |
| | 8 - 2 = 3 Winner could choose 3 cards |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
| Random | If this rule is active, the computer will pick the |
| | cards for you. This is rather lousy as the computer |
| | will give those "not-so-useful" cards [but they are |
| | great for PLUS and SAME rules!]. If you are lucky, you |
| | can get an ultimate combination! |
|_____________|________________________________________________________|
You need to lose a rare card before you can played that maddening card
quest... Refer to Card Queen Quest for more details.

entrance of the Dormitory and the Cafeteria.

Dr Kadowaki and choose to sleep alone at the
Dormitory. It seems to me that you can only play
cards with "him" at Disc 3 onwards [he is actually
Quistis, no sense....] Quistis will automatically
appears there during night time and it is an instant
challenge. This doesn't matter if you have meet them
in order. If you could not win, just head for the
controls and challenge a card game with Quistis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most of the Page 7 Cards can be obtained from the CC members. Some of
them got the rare cards such as the Leviathan and the Gilgamesh, so it's
not advisible to miss them. They have the best collection in the world.
You can meet them at Ragnarok at Disc 4, refer to Part I for more
details.

Some more information about CC Group by Markweb Jimenez

Note that you can play cards with CC Group Heart (Xu) after you have
defeated the CC Club, Diamond, Joker and Spade. Talk to Xu and she
will tell you about something (that's is there is player called the
CC Group King.] There you will be able to play the card game with the
CC Group King.

Card Queen's Quest
(contributed by Eugene See )
========================================================================
For details on getting the "rare" type cards, refer to Eugene See's
Rare Card FAQ. I have seek his permission to use this section in my
FAQ. Anyway, I have just reformated the section. For the Japanese
encoding, please refer to his FAQ.
The Card Queen has no relationship with CC Group. She is just a woman
who loves to play cards. You will first encounter her at Balamb Town,
outside the train station. She is dressed in pink and have red cloak
over her shoulder [looks like Aeris of FF7]. Just play a Card Game with
her and lose any of the Level 8 Cards [Level 8 Cards and above are
considered rare] and then she will move on to the next area and she
will refuse to play the card with you and will talk about the places.
So head for the places. Check the giant World Map for the names of
places OR refer to Eugene See's Card FAQ.
Procedure:
Just give her the card that she wants and note where she is going, and
head for the place [or around the world if you are unlucky] until she
return back to Dollet. There she will reveal information on the card,
so head there and get the card. You can ONLY get the card if the Card
Queen says so!
Here is the list of area/places [The area is actually the codes for you
to figure where she is going; anyway it is given to you, so no
headaches ^_^;.]. She will either move if you win OR lost a RARE card
to her.
1. Balamb: In front of the Train station. You will meet her there.
2. Dollet: On the second floor of Dollet's Pub where you find the
Timber Magazine. This is where she will begin the Card
Quest.
3. Deling: Inside the Galbadia Hotel.
4. FH You will find her at the damage train where you find the
Draw Point and the Save Point.
5. Centra: You will find at the hotel [Flower's Restuarant of
Winhill]
6. Esthar: The Grand Hall of the President Building [the place where
Squall will have a conversation before talking to
Professor Odine.
7. Anywhere: You will find her at the Lunar Gate
8. Trabia: You will find her inside the Hotel of the Shumi Village.
Save your game before losing a RARE card to her. As you may not like
the way that she is heading towards, you could reset your Playstation
console. Note that you are questing for the cards, you will usually
have to go through quite several locations before you will ended up at
Dollet again.
List of Cards to be collected:
You must lose the card so that you obtained the card from the places
below. The Card Queen will specifies what is the card she wants and you
will have to lose the card before she will leaks the information on
where to collect/get the "rare" card.
Card to be lost: MiniMog
Card for Exchange: Kiros
Where to get it: Head for Deling City. Enter the place where you
find the signboard that says "Galbadia Street
Parade" Obtain the card from the man dressed in
black suit.
Card to be lost: Sacred
Card for Exchange: Irvine
Where to get it: Head back to FH and enter the Windmill.
Get the card from Flo [Dobe's wife]
Card to be lost: Chicobo
Card for Exchange: Chubby Chocobo
Where to get it: You can get the Card from the guy on the bench
found in front of the Balamb Garden's Library.
His appearance is random.
Card to be lost: Alexander
Card for Exchange: Doomtrain
Where to get it: You can get the Card from the owner in the Timber
Pub. He is just behind the counter.
Card to be lost: Doomtrain
Card for Exchange: Phoenix
Where to get it: Head back to the Esthar Presidental Building. Look
for a man dressed in blue.
ALL cards that are lost on purpose [example: Alexander], can be
obtained from his son who is found with the Card Artist. He is just
one screen from the Save Point at Dollet. Any other cards can be
gotten back from the Card Queen herself,
OTHER WAYS.....GETTING RARE CARDS
I have completed my cards collection, thanks to this method and
Franksiskus Febrainto for this great news! You can get back all the
cards that you have missed throughout your journey at Disc 4. Simply
get back to Ragnarok. Press Triangle and hold X and you will meet up
with Sue at the haul of the Ragnarok. Next all CC members are back!
Challenge them and you can get back the "rare" cards that you have
missed throughout your jounery except for PuPu's Card!

The Card List
========================================================================
Here you will find the list of cards, excluding the methods to gain
them. I have listed their attributes and the Card Mod-RF exchange rate.
I have also added the elements of the card.
Basically, the cards have been categories into four sections:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
M o n s t e r s Page 1 ~ 5
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Generally, there are the cards of all monsters. However not all
monsters are included in the game. They are Raldo, Esthar Soldier,
G-Soldier, Flapper, Elite Soldier, GIM-52N and Esthar Soldier [Cyborg].
Pupu's Card is a rare card. Refer to Getting Rare Cards for more
information. All monster's card except for PuPu's card can be gotten
through defeating other players or Card Command
------------------------------------------------------------------------
B O S S Page 6 ~ 7
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cards for all BOSSES found in the game except for Ultimecia and Griever.
Cards of BOSS can be gotten by defeating other players and uses the
Card command, refer to Monster's FAQ or Monster Bestiary for more
information.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
G u a r d i a n F o r c es Page 8 ~ 9
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cards of your GFs. Most of them can be gotten through defeating a GF.
You may also need to defeat some of best card players found in the game.
GF Cards can be gotten through quests such as Chocobo Forests Quest.
Refers to Rare Cards List for more information.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
C h a r a c t e r s Page 10
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cards of main cast of the game. Including the Dream Party member's
card, along Seifer and Ward's Card. These cards are pretty hard to get
as they got great attributes. Refer to Rare Cards List for more
information
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, let's continued with the card list and of course, it will be quite
tiring to type out in full, hence I have made used of abbreviations and
symbols:

========================================================================
The Complete Shopping Guide
========================================================================
Note: I have also included the discount costs and non-discount costs.
One common factor in RPGs, your characters could buy items from shops
and sell it to others [in a lower price, always half-price for FF
series]. First of all I will describe the details about shopping:
_______________________________________________
| Name of Shop | Well if you could
|_______________________________________________| imagine it in English,
| | What would you like to | it should be something
| Buy Sell Exit | buy? | like this. Choosing
|______________________|________________________| [Buy] will show the
| Facts on the item, basically on its functions | items that shop has
|_______________________________________________| offer. Choosing [Sell]
| Item P1 Price | | will show you the list
| Potion 100 <|| Stock | of items that you have
| Hi-Potion 500 | 75 | in your stock and how
| Phoenix Down 500 | | much the shopper has
| Antidote 100 | | offer [usually half
| EyeDrop 100 | | of the selling price]
| Soft 100 | | Choosing [Exit] will
| Echo Screen 100 | | leave the shop. Note
| Holy Water 100 | | that you can only
|<______________________________>|______________| carry up to the
| Total Gil | maximum of 100 kind

Junk Group
========================================================================
This section is probably the toughest. I myself did not know much about
Japanese and most of these translated by sheer guessing and some taken
from Steven Bruck's Card FAQ. Junk is rather the most easiest to find
and the most difficult to translate. They can be obtained by using
Mug, a character ability to steal an item while attacking or win it
from battles. So it is highly recommended that you have mastered
Diablos' Mug command once you have gotten it.
Some of the hardiest items can be obtained by using Quezacotl's
Card Mod-RF [which is explained in the monsters besitary.] That's why I
would recommend that you play cards very often. [However, many e-mails
did not like this method, me too!, So I work hard for it in search for
new method which is mentioned below]
_____________ _______________________________________________________

that have it. Here is the fruit of my hard work! Selling Price are
based on the Tonberi's Sell High.

GF Item Group
========================================================================
NOTE: All the costs are stated without Tonberry's Haggle. The selling
price are stated with Tonberry's Sell High [those that are stated
in brackets]
These items are used to restore lost HP. Certain Junks that provided GFs
affection such as Bomb Fragment, Venom Fang and Dynamo Rock. They are
listed in the Junk Group [which has been discussed in Section 5.4].
Whereas GF items are harder to get but GF recovery items can be bought
from most Pet Shops such as Timber Pet Shop and Esthar Pet Shop.
However G-Potion, G Hi-Potion and G-Returner can be bought from all
shops. As it's name states, these items can be used only be used on GFs.
But there are some requirements:
- Make sure that your GF's ability pages are not full, as each GF can
only learnt up to the maximum of 22 GF abilities. If you do additional
slot, use an Amnesia Greens to remove it. But please be caution as
there is NO way that you can get back eliminated abilities unless you
have gotten the item for it. Eliminate those weak ones such as SumMag
+10% and exchange for a good ability such as SumMag +30% or HP +80%.
- Not all GFs can use all GF Items! This is proven true as you can't
have the GF Quezacotl to learn HP-J, which the GF has already learnt.
This applies to all GFs too. GFs can't have two same abilities. I.e.
GFs can't have two SumMag +30%.
- These items are HARD to get and EXPENSIVE! They are very hard to get
as you need abilities such as Mug [Diablos and Bahamut] and the Rare
Item Party Ability. These can only get the basics items. Next you
must make use of the GF Eden's GF Abil Med-RF. To buy some of GF items
such as Orichalcon at a cheaper price, make use of Tonberry's Haggle
ability.
- If a GF item is used, that ability is automatically mastered. I.e. you
do not need to earn AP to master that skill.
- Not all abilities can be acquired from GF items. Examples include
Alexander's Med LV Up, Eden's GF Abil Med-RF, etc. My advice is that
you should try to get all GF abilities before you get the item.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frequently Asked Questions
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are frequently asked questions that I have recieved through my
e-mails about G.F abilities.
Q1: I have accidentally removed one of SumMag +40%.. Is there a way to
get it back?
A: No. However, you can make use of Eden's GF Abil Med-RF. You can get
the item (Samantha Soul) that allows you to learn SumMag +40% or
changes Quistis' card for it.
Q2: Where can I get the Amnesia Grass?
A: You can get by buying it from shops. If you are in Disc 4, you need
to get GF Tonberry's Call Shop menu ability. Next, choose the shop
[Esthar Pet Shop or Timber Pet Shop] and buy it.
Q3: Why I don't see the Call Shop menu ability in the list of GF
abilities for GF Tonberry?
A: It can be two possible cases:
- You have used up the slot, which is meant for the space as the
GF does have acquired its prequisite.
- You have accidentally use a Amnesia Greens on it.
- If your case is the second one (bottom one), you could say
goodbye to the ability. If yours is the first case, just simply
used a Amnesia Greens to remove a useless ability (such as SumMag
+10%)
Well, enough of the briefing, let's proceed to the list.

List of Monsters
========================================================================
Typically, the information that found all here are taken from my precise
Monsters FAQ. However, some of the Devour status are still not added.
First of all, here is a briefing about monsters:
As in almost all RPGs (it stands for Role Playing Games for those whom
still do not know...), there is always good guys and the bad guys. I
have been serving the web and found that most sites tends to focus on
the characters more that the monsters. [of course, there are some
exceptions.] Monsters played a vital role in RPGs as they contribute
the fun for your battles. Here is basic facts about monsters in FF8.
- The monsters don't just disappear, in fact there are some "dying"
sequences... [e.g. Defeat the T-Rexaur does not causes it to
disappear instantly [except for ST-Atk-J with 100x Death], it will
groan and fall onto the ground [negative response: Yummy, we will be
having Dino meat for dinner.. :)]
- The monsters does not allow you to get fixed EXP. This is one big
problem, I have yet to solve. The monster does not give fixed EXP.
In fact, you can gain 1,000+ EXP from a monster that nabs you only
about 600 EXP (want to know how? read on..). The longer the battle,
the higher EXP you will received. The higher the Level of the
monster, the more EXP you will received. The last person to kill
a monster will normally gets the most EXP. However the AP, you could
gain from a monster is fixed. (well how about the most AP?, read
on..). Monsters at different levels nabs you different items. So take
note. AP allows GFs to learn new abilities such as Str +20%.
- Monsters do level up in FF8.. They will gain additional moves, like
for example the T-Rexaur will have a special attack that grab your
character and swing the character into the air. [which only appears
when the T-Rexaur is Level 100).
- There is no Morph Command. Well, you can't get additional items by
morphing monsters as there is no Morph Command in FF8. Instead they
have replaced with Rare Item Ability. There is no more Steal command
too, which has instantly replaced with the Mug Command.
- Random Draw List. Well, the Draw Command allows you to draw magic
from the monsters and stock it for your own usage (which means no more
MP!). The draw list is random... for example:
Bite Bug
Level 1 ~ 15 Draw: Fire, Scan
Level 16 ~ 35 Draw: Fira, Scan
Level 36 ~ 100 Draw: Firaga, Scan
Ruby Dragon
Level 1 ~ 15 Draw: Fire, Aero
Level 16 ~ 35 Draw: Fira, Aero
Level 36 ~ 100 Draw: Firaga, Tornado, Flare, Meteor
- Cash (Gil) Problem. A lot of e-mails I have received asked me how to
get gil as they can't get gil by defeating monsters. Yeah, that's
true! You can only get gil by walking through your SeeD Level. That's
the way that SeeDs get their salaries. Need to take tests [*sigh*,
school is already killing me, yet still need to take SeeD test..].
There is an alternate way but you must have some cash inside your
inventory before you can do so.
- Some monsters return from the previous FF Series. For example, Bomb
has return from FF Tactics and Tonberry has return from FF VII. Well,
as for characters, there seems to be no methods have been proven
correct. Besides the methods that I have found, are a bit too
impossible.
- Don't expect monster's HP to be so restrained... Yeah it is true. For
example the Ruby Dragon has massive amount of HP (89,100 HP!) at a
level 100! Well now you can expect of the BOSSES in the later game.
FF8's Difficulty arises from here..
- There are three basic status of fighting and here they are:
1 Chance for first strike! - All your character's ATB will be at its
maximum.
2 Struck First! - All monsters will have their command first.
3 Back Attacked! - 1) Your characters will have their backs facing the
monsters.. Monsters will have their command first.
Equip GF Cerberus' Alert to prevent this.
2) Your characters will be facing the monsters' back,
well don't be fooled by the Imp ^_^; Initative
fall into your character's hands.
- Most monsters have cards except for certain monsters such as GIM-52A
(purple robots found D-District Prison), Raldo (remember those stone
like monsters that you face at the training center where you encounter
Ellone for the 2nd time?) and others.
- The bird's nest story from FF VII is back.. During Obel Lake's Quest,
you need to look for the stones right? There is one stone that is
found inside the nest which leads to an instant battle against the
Thrustaevis. For FF VII, you will face a giant ostrich at Corel Mt.
which is the mother of the chicks and get you 10x Phoenix Downs. I
have finally solved the Obel Lake which I will reveal in Part II.
- Not all precious items can be gotten from monsters. For example, to
get Glow Curtain, you can't get it by defeating monsters. Instead,
you can get this by converting 100x Malboro's Tentacle into through
Eden's GF Abl Med-RF. But you wonder how I get 100x Malboro
Tentacle? Malboro are so tough.. therefore this FAQ comes handy.
This is another reason why I make this FAQ.
- Conditions for Game Over (these words may seem....)
- All character's HP drop to 0.
- All characters are under Petrify status.
- When a monster is being pertified, you will Received 0 EXP but still
recieves its AP. The most EXP you can get, are from the monsters found
in the Island closest to Hell/Heaven. The least EXP are from the
Cactaurs and Level 1 monsters (through Lv Down).
- You can get a ripped part of the EXP gained if you wounded the monster
in the battle from running away [hold R2 and L2]. You can also get some
items if the battle consist of more than one enemy and you have
defeated the monster. Example: Vysage usually appears with Lefty and
Righty. If you defeat Vysage and run away, you will get the items [
Lightweights or Wizard Stones].
- There are draw points on the World of FF8 and it is your interest to
get them all. Most of the quests such as the Obel Lake Mystery and
Elabeak Peninsula Mystery can only be done on the World Map. I would
also like to express my thanks to those whom have helped me in solving
the mystery.
- More battle combats.. You can get to do all sorts of new commands such
as Revive [which is equalvent to Full-life], Recover [which is
equalvent to Full-cure], Devour [instant death attack against one foe
and may gain bonuses/damage] and much more. So it will be your
interest to test them out...
- List of Status Ailments in Battles
I think it will be necessary to mentioned them..
Sleep A "ZZZ" appears on the character, ATB stops moving.
Doom A red counter of 24 seconds [basketball?], when it drops to
zero, the character will be instantly killed.
Petrify A white counter of 20 seconds, when it drops to zero, the
character will be petrified [turned into stone..] and will
be unusable if not cured.
Confuse The character will be turning around in circles.. ATB still
moves as normal, but auto-attack commands will be selected.
May does damage to oneself, enemy and even allies.
Silence A speech bubble with "....". Character is unable to use
Magic, GF and Draw Command. GF-type Commands (Recover,
Treatment, Revive, etc) will still be usable.
Darkness A black cloud surrounds the head of a character. Hit rate
reduce by half.
Zombie The colour of the character turns dull green except for the
weapons. Becomes undead [Received damage from healing
elements.]
Berserk Character becomes red hot. ATB moves normally but as it
reaches the character's turn, the character does an auto-
attack to one.
Poison A green cloud appears. ATB moves normally but as you
excute a command, the HP drops by a small portion.
To counter these, I guess you should all know by now.. if not, feel
free to contact me.
- In the previous FF series, FF7 and FFT, there are not much emphasis on
the Elemental Arts. In fact, now they have possess a greater
importance as it allows your character to boost to its optimum
attacking power. In my own opinion, I think that Elem-Atk-J can be
very damaging if you know how to use it. Like I managed to does 9999
HP to the Jumbo Cactaur each time.. Refer to the strategies for more
details.

/ 6.1 \_________________________________________________________________
------------------------------------------------------------------------
List of Abbreviations
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay.. let's get to work.. I will first start off to tell everyone that
be expected of a lot of abbreviations [it will be very tedious to type
out every word..]. Here is the legend:
Legend
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key Defination
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name - Name of monster
LV - Level of a monster from its minimum level to maximum level
HP - monsters' minimum HP to maximum HP
Taste - the effect by using Devour command to that monster [Eden]
Refreshing/Delicious/All systems go!/Increased morale -
Gained HP, Bonus, fix status ailments.
Awful/Barf-Bwahh... - lost HP + abnormal status according
to the monster
No Taste - typically applies to all mechanical beasts.
AP - AP point gained to that monster [this is very important..]
Steal - Item you will steal from that monster by using Mug command
ability
Drop (') - Item that you will find after battle
Rare Item - Item that you can find when equiped with Rare Item.
Attack (^) - list of monster's attack
Draw (*) - magic you can draw/gained to that monster by using Draw.
Descri. - description, what monster look like or similar to
Where - the locations of the monsters.
Card - using the card command.
NOTE - my battle strategies ^_^;
Info - the list of words that I noted while scanning...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
^ Notes on the attack list
Monster also get new attacks when they level up same as your characters.
One major difference from FF8 between other RPGs, is that the monster
too also get Level Ups and have more HP at a higher level. Usually the
key factor that causes this will be Squall's Level. To fix this, uses
Tonberry's LV Down. At lower levels, you will see the monster using that
tactic. Attacks are being enclosed in the brackets are names that I
think of it myself. [quite creative, huh?]. The monster also uses
spells, just BOSSES, some of them even use Blue Magic Items...
' Notes on Item Drop
You can get better items by equiped the Party Ability, Rare Item which
can be obtained from GF Bahamut. Most of the time, you will get GF
items than Junk Items with this ability equiped. So make full use of
this. You can less better items, if you perform LV Down or LV Up.
Below is a slight scenario..
Bite Bug
Level 1 ~ 10 M-Stone Piece [draw list: Fire, Scan]
Level 11 ~ 25 Magic Stone [draw list: Fira, Scan]
Level 26 ~ 100 Wizard Stone [draw list: Firaga, Scan]
NOTE: Rare Item does not mean that you will get the item always.
Without Rare Item, you can also get rare items. The Rare Item only
helps to increase the success rate. Piss.. really have a hard time to
get the Devour status..
One more thing about this.. You can only get items from a monster if
you did not use the Mug Command. So it is like a double-edged sword..
* Notes about the Draw List
Here is the explaination. As you see, whenever monsters level up, you
will get new spells such as Firaga, Tornado, Curaga, etc. This spells
can be obtained from strong foes. For those whom want to take a short
cut, you can get them by using the Tonberry's LV Up and you will get
new spells. Refer to Guardian Force Section found in Part II for more
details.
Situation #1
Fire* - this denotes that you can draw.. (it is not 100% accurate, it is
just an estimation.)
-> Fire from Level 1 ~15 Monsters
-> Fira from Level 16 ~ 35 Monsters
-> Firaga from Level 36 and above Monsters
Situation #2
[Death] - this denotes that you will get this new spell as the monster
has gain its level.
[Death]- you can draw Death from the monster from Level 16
onwards, but can't below Level 16.
{Death}- you can draw Death from the monster from Level 36
onwards, but can't below Level 36.
Situation #3
{Scan -> Dispel}- this denotes a spell replacement..
[Scan -> Dispel]- you will draw Dispel instead of Scan from
a monster that is Level 16 onwards, but could only draw Scan
from the same monster below Level 16.
{Scan -> Dispel}- you will draw Dispel instead of Scan from
a monster that is Level 36 onwards, but could only draw Scan
from the same monster below Level 16.

Monster Besitary

first before.. If you don't.. don't expect get help from me! It will be
very frustrating and you will be provoking a volcano...
Most of these monsters can be encounter mostly inside Ultimecia Castle
at disc 4 in random, except for monster on the list at the last part.
So, Let's start our hunting or knowing the monster... ^_^; as the
saying "Knowing one foe, half the battle is already won." Okay on with
