Nope, his dream was to be the sorceresses’ knight. His romantic dream is to marry rinoa, as he planned to, before he became the sorceresses’ knight
Nope, his dream was to be the sorceresses’ knight. His romantic dream is to marry rinoa, as he planned to, before he became the sorceresses’ knight
at what part of the game does seifer say that his romantic dream was to marry rinoa before he became the sorceress’ knight? i didn’t catch that part. i thought that seifer’s only dream is to become the sorceress’ knight.
OmegaWeapon
04-15-2005, 12:49 AM
Yes, it was just to become the Sorceress’ knight, not necessarily about Rinoa, well a few people said that so any one of you can post the next question.

Lukey
05-01-2005, 05:09 AM
Dark_soilder’s correct; I believe it’s as soon as you get off of the train that departs from Timber to the East Academy Station. It’s really not as hard as you’d think, I’ve done it several times.

the guy watching you

dark matter is used to teach quistis shockwave pulsur(sp?)and dont you need 100 curse spikes?
Lukey
05-02-2005, 08:24 AM
You need 100 Curse Spikes and a level 100 Siren to make one. They’re used to teach Quistis the ShockWave Pulsar Blue Magic, and can also be refined into a Luck J-Scroll or 100 Ultimas.

05-03-2005, 06:58 AM

05-09-2005, 11:41 PM
eh? i dont remember playing any tunes to fight omega
Dark_soilder
05-15-2005, 09:11 AM
first you have to ring the bell and then switch to the main party and go to where the smoke was and omega will be waiting (you only have 1 min toget ther )
Lukey
05-15-2005, 09:18 AM
You have to play a certain tune on the piano in ultimicias castle but I cannot remember the one.That organ does absolutely nothing, it’s misleading to most people who’ve played FFVII before this.
Dark_soilder
05-15-2005, 09:23 AM
yea so far if i play a tune nothing happens but if any one can correct me please do
That organ does absolutely nothing, it’s misleading to most people who’ve played FFVII before this.
To be quite honest I fought Omega weapon once and I cant remember how I fought him.
MidgarInRuins
05-15-2005, 06:29 PM
Isn’t omega weapon in the bottom of the Deep Sea facility?
I thought you drew Eden from it…
UltimateFFFan
05-16-2005, 06:58 AM
No, that’s Ultima Weapon, Omega Weapon is in Ultemecia’s Castle. You fight Omega Weapon as follows:
Get your strong party to the party change point outside the organ room. Then get your other party to ring the bell in the reception room. This will give you 60 seconds to get into the organ room and hit X. However, 10 seconds of this is wasted by a member looking up at the bell. Get your party back to a change point, and thenwith your strong party, run into the organ room, and there should stand Omega Weapon.
My question:
What do you get for beating Omega Weapon (yes, I know, I’ve done it! took me a while but I did it)
Lukey
05-16-2005, 12:24 PM
The ‘Proof of Omega’ certificate. I don’t know if that’s the correct name, though.
UltimateFFFan

malboro tentacles form malboro, remedy+ from refining 60 remedies(10 remedies for 1 remedy+), steel pipes dropped from monsters or card refine(refine 1 elastoid card for 1 steel pipe), the solomons ring at tears point in esthar.

You mean the part before you get bahamut?
Lukey
05-30-2005, 01:00 PM
No, I mean the areas on the way to meeting Ultima Weapon.
There’s 4 levels prior, each with 3 fixed battles of the same monster/s. What are they?
Oh sorry thats my mistake then.

Next Question: What’s the name of the small forest near Dollet?

so… i’ll post my question since i got the other question correct
question:

No its not tomb of the unkown king.
I think it is galbadia forest or the sleepy forest but im not sure.
With regards to julia wasnt it 5 years old
No its not tomb of the unkown king.
I think it is galbadia forest or the sleepy forest but im not sure.
With regards to julia wasnt it 5 years old
oh right… tomb of the unknown king was near deling city! sorry, i was thinking about deling city.well, i think it’s either both of your answers. but i bet it’s the galbadia forest you’re talking about.
btw, correct, jander. she died right before her daughter(rinoa) turned 5

Laguna does not have a gun blade.
he uses a machine gun
As for the gunblades i know at LEAST 3 people have wielded them in the game, Squall, Seifer and Laguna.
Laguna only has to use a gunblade during a dream sequence. Yes, he did use a gunblade, but he doesn’t officially use a gunblade. He officially uses a machine gun in the game.
And since I got Tidus 66’s question correct, I might as well just post a question.

Of course he officially uses a machine gun, but he did not ask who officialy uses one, he asked who wielded it in the game and laguna did, even if for that very short period of time, so i think that may be what hes looking for. ๐
He’s asking for the ones that officially weilds the gunblade. Anyone here can see that.
Hex Omega
06-28-2005, 04:48 AM
Seems a bit too easy.He probally asked for EVERYONE who uses a gunblade in an effort to catch you out.Laguna only uses the gunblade for about 30 seconds so most people would forget that.

It wasn’t wrong. The fact that you said that Laguna weilded a gunblade in the game, when you know he was asking for who are the ones who officially used a gunblade in the game, was wrong.
Anyway, no use in arguing over it, lets just wait till he gives an answer.

Here is what he said to jander:
no you are wrong try again
And his original question was
how many people do you see weild gunblades in the game.
PLEASE TELL ME how from his original question, you know hes asking only for squall and seifer, the 2 official gunblade users, ESPECIALLY AFTER HE SAID THAT ANSWER WAS WRONG!? Stop being so damn blind and simply read the question, the way its worded it could easily mean every person who even picks up a gunblade in the game.
I could be wrong, it may not be laguna at all, i might be completely missing something here, but to me it is obvious hes looking for more than just squall and seifer.
Sorry everybody, I dont usually make angry posts like this, but shes really being a bitch to me now and for no reason lol.

I mean just after time-compression, when your at edea’s house and there’s that giant chain thing leading to Ultimecia’s castle. There are 3 (I think) portal thingies on it. I need the name of a place one of them in particular leads you to.

Im pretty sure that there were 4 portal and that these were the places:
1.Grandidi Forest(like a chocobo holy area)
2. The plains near Centra Ruins
3. Galbadia area, near that missile base
4. A secret portal that is only uncovered once you enter from within it, found when looking for the Ragnarok after time compresssion.
I may be wrong.
NickG

I don’t think I’ve done any here before, so I’ll take one, it shouldn’t be too hard. Towards the beginning of the game, Seifer says to add Professor Trepe to "the list." What exactly is the list and tell me somebody else that’s on it.
..::RObSKi::..
11-17-2005, 12:21 AM
It is Seifer’s "Shit list"
Who else is on it? Zell i supose.
Agent0042
11-17-2005, 05:35 AM
Incorrect on both counts I’m afraid. While it could be called a "shit list," I suppose, that isn’t the correct name for it. And it’s never said that Zell’s on it.
..::RObSKi::..
11-17-2005, 01:16 PM
Oh wait, I think I know, Im not sure if this is corect but I’m sure Seifer (along with Fuujin and Raijin) were on the disciplinary committee, therefore the list is probably a review of SeeD’s and Quistis is on the list because after that she got de- ranked.
I’m still not sure who else is on the list but probably Xu.
Tidus 66
11-17-2005, 06:28 PM

Tidus 66 is correct on his, however, I’m still looking for the proper name for the list. ..::RObSKi::.., sorry, not what I’m thinking of.
Hint: Seifer tells the name of the list during the time when he’s interrogating Squall, the same time that he reveals that Squall is on it.
Tidus 66
11-17-2005, 06:49 PM

Incorrect on both counts I’m afraid. While it could be called a "shit list," I suppose, that isn’t the correct name for it. And it’s never said that Zell’s on it.
Actually, I’m positive Zell isn’t on it. If you remember, Seifer says, "Didn’t think you’d talk that easily. You’re on my ‘tough nut to crack’ list." Later, he says, "If you don’t talk, others will… or that chicken-wuss. He wouldn’t last 3 seconds!" If you don’t know who’s a chicken-wuss, it’s Zell. He directly implies that Zell isn’t on the list here.
Just thought I’d point that out.
Agent0042
11-17-2005, 11:27 PM
You misread my post. I specifically said that Zell isn’t on it. Reread it again more carefully — I siaid "It’s never said that Zell’s on it."

NickG
11-18-2005, 09:39 PM
Hope this hasn’t been asked already. Explain in (great) detail how to obtain GF Eden, your starting point should be from the first time you find the Deep Sea Research Center.
EDIT: Btw, I also know that this is a rubbish question.
Zell dincht X0
11-18-2005, 09:59 PM
The Research Center is located out in the open seas in the southwestern corner of the world. Land your ship on it and make your way into the interior of the building. Inside, you’ll see a spinning blue light that goes on and off at random. Walk only when the light is turned off and keep inching your way towards the blue core. You’ll be forced into combat should you move with the lights on. Upon reaching the center, examine it and select the 1st option. You’ll get involved in 3 consecutive battles, starting with 2 Ruby Dragons.
The Ruby Dragons have a Breath attack that can take away large amounts of HP if you’re not protected from Fire. Cast Meltdown and have Squall unleash his Renzokuken. If they drop an Inferno Fang, use it on Quistis so she can learn Fire Breath. Using GF Tonberry’s Level Down ability also helps.
After defeating the first one, re-examine the core and select the 2nd option for another fight with a Ruby Dragon. You’ll begin this one with your backs turned, so be careful. If you’re lucky, Odin will step in to help. Examine the panel again and pick the invisible 3rd option.
BOSS >> BAHAMUT
HP: 65,000 Weakness: Blind Strength: Poison, Thunder, Wind
AP: 40 Draw: Flare, Curaga, Full-life, Dispel
Strategy: Bahamut has a pretty high offensive rating and if you take too long to defeat him, his Mega Flare will take away roughly 4,000 HP from everyone. Minimize damage with Protect and Shell. Bahamut is weak against Blind. Cast Meltdown and use Aura on Squall to prompt his Renzokuken.
Once defeated, you’ll acquire GF Bahamut, plus his card. Leave the Research Center and talk to everyone (especially Zell) once you’re back on the Ragnarok. If you like, head to the nearest town (Winhill) to stock up on items, spells, save and re-organize your party (bring Zell along for the next part).
After you’ve spoken with everyone in the cockpit of the Ragnarok, re-enter the building. Use the Save Point next to the large hole in the ground where the blue core used to be. Descend the vine inside the hole. You’ll face a plethora of powerful enemies here. Should you choose to fight them, Tonberry’s Level Down ability will be helpful, along with Quistis’ Degenerator. Most of the enemies are weak against Sleep, so use it often.
At the bottom, use the Dispel DP then examine the heap of metal in the lower left corner. Choose to have the computer explain the procedure for opening doors. You’ll learn that you need to distribute power units efficiently to access the lower levels. Spend 4 units now and use the hatch in the floor to go down to the next level.
Once there, examine the terminal in front of the stairs. Spend 2 units of power to open another floor hatch and descend. On this floor, examine the terminal on the right and use 1 unit of power to open another hatch. [If Zell is in your party, you can ignore the computer on the left, which opens a door on the left.] Go down to the next level and use 1 unit of power on the computer there. Do the same thing on the next level then step on the floor plate to descend to Level 6.
When you reach the bottom floor, examine the machine in the center of the room. Choose to have Zell take a look at it (2nd option). Enter the gate on the left and move forward until you reach a Save Point. Use a Triple DP along the way and continue winding down until you get to the very bottom of the island. Use Siren’s Move-Find ability to locate a hidden Save Point then examine the red computer panel on the right.
BOSS >> ULTIMA WEAPON
HP: 100,000 Weakness: ? Strength: Earth
AP: 100 Draw: Regen, Dispel, Ultima, GF Eden
Strategy: Draw GF Eden from it right away. Apart from having a ridiculously high offensive rating, the Ultima Weapon’s Light Pillar attack can take away 9,999 HP from a single member, so keep those Phoenix Downs at the ready. When it’s not using Light Pillar, the Ultima Weapon uses Gravija, Quake, and Meteor. Cast Meltdown on it, followed by Aura on Squall so that he can unleash his Renzokuken. Have your remaining members act as healers and if you can spare a few turns, draw some Ultima spells from the boss.
phew now that took ages…

…..yeah, so did i get it right or… what?
I don’t care about the question, but i might add to whomever made that guide that the player must have Zell in their party all the way through. I wouldn’t like to get haflway down to find out that i need zell in my party. Tisk tisk. If Zell isn’t in your party, and you try the computer, you use 10 units to open the door, meaning that not only won’t there be any monsters all the way down, but also there won’t be enough units left to fight Ultima Weapon. Oh well, at least you get a triple draw point.
Also, you mentioned how difficult the enemies are on the way to the gate…wtf the enemies are piss-weak there compared to once Zell opens the gate and you’re going down the path towards Ultima! You’ll need really strong party members to fight all the enemies, especially the ruby dragons that are on that path, yet you summarise it in two lines ๐
Agent0042
11-22-2005, 01:47 AM
Kie — sorry, but you’re wrong. There is a way to get down there without having Zell in your party. I don’t recall the exact details right now, but it’s been posted in other threads here before.
Is that so? Well i wouldn’t mind hearing it cause Zell’s annoying ๐
Also, i was making the point that the guy who made the guide used the ‘Zell in your party’ way in his guide, so i was just saying that he should’ve put it up the top before entering the research center.

Basically, you just use a different number of steam at each level, and I’m WAAAAAY too lazy to go find that. I would hardly call this a trivia question, as the poster himself admitted to this. Thus, I must ask that someone else post a question.

Ok im gonna revive this as this is probably the only trivia I like taking part in.
Which weapon of Selphies requires Bomb Fragments to make?
jewess crabcake
07-07-2006, 03:47 PM
isn’t it the flail or something like that
TeknoBlade
07-11-2006, 08:21 PM
Yeah it is.
What year was Irvine born in?
jewess crabcake
07-11-2006, 08:39 PM
Yeah it is.
What year was Irvine born in?
That’s impossible to know unless… the game came out in 99′ irvine was 17 so 1982
TeknoBlade
07-11-2006, 08:44 PM
Irvine was 18 but close enough. ๐
jewess crabcake
07-13-2006, 02:15 AM
ok 1981
Agent0042
07-13-2006, 03:45 AM
Yeah, he said it was "close enough," so why not just ask your question?

isn’t that degenorator?
etoilegyrl
07-20-2006, 11:57 PM
No, degenerator is learned from a black hole which comes from Gesper/Gesper’s Card. ๐
I believe its a barrier which teaches Mighty guard or sth like that
I cant remember anymore
Ok bumping this again. This is the only trivia I like doing guys:(
What colour are Selphies original Weapons?
jewess crabcake
08-30-2006, 06:49 PM
red
jewess crabcake
08-30-2006, 08:49 PM
Well I know i’m right. So the next question is what team was selphie originally transfered from during the SeeD test?
I believe she was the messenger from Squad B
FF1WithAllThieves
09-06-2006, 03:05 AM
No, she was from Squad A. Squall, Zell, and Seifer make up Squad B, as "Teamwork means staying out of my way" is a "Squad B rule."
Free question.

How do you get the Rinoa Card?
Agent0042
09-06-2006, 07:36 PM
Doesn’t General Caraway play it? You have to play the Ifrit card in a game with him and then he might play it. I think maybe you have to lose it to him too, but I’m not sure.
Olde
09-06-2006, 08:06 PM
correct. he’ll only use it if you lose the ifrit card to him first. free question.

Hey, wait, what’s this "free question" business? Last time, I checked, whoever gets the previous question right gets the next question, unless they declare the question to be "free."
I will not be doing that, however.
Okay, my question — shouldn’t be all that difficult — when Laguna and Kiros are asked to join the Adel resistance movement, what name does Laguna incorrectly call "Adel" by, prompting Kiros to tell him to listen more closely (although he attributes the comment to Ward.)
jewess crabcake
09-07-2006, 11:26 PM
I believed he called her Abel. Most likely wrong.
Agent0042
09-08-2006, 01:08 AM
Yeah, sorry, that’s wrong, although as a tip, I’ll say that you have the right idea.
FF1WithAllThieves
09-08-2006, 01:45 AM
Ah, yes, I remember! It’s "Azel." I think Laguna is my favorite character for this reason.
Free question if I’m right.
Agent0042
09-08-2006, 03:59 AM
You’re right, it was the Adel Resistance movement, but he referred to it as the "Anti-Azel" Movement.
Okay then, now it’s a free question. I guess somebody can go ahead and answer Lionheart Reborn’s question if they want.

What GF does the asleep SeeD in Trabia Garden Use?
I dont really know O.o this is pretty much just a bump. If i just beat the game i could probably tell you but i beat it like 4 years ago and my Ps1 broke. Then my wonderful friend introduced me to emulators so now im starting to play it again. Iv’e almost gotten to disk 2 because i just leaved The tomb of the unknown kings? I think.. lol well w\e there is my bump.

What GF does the asleep SeeD in Trabia Garden Use?
I believe it’s Quezacotl… But maybe Shiva. Pretty sure it’s Quezacotl. Correct me if I’m wrong.
I didn realise any seed could use GF last time I played FF8 the only people who used gf were. Squall, Rinoa, Quistis, Selphie, Irvine, Zell and Ultemicia.

In what locations do you have to witness the UFO carrying objects before you can give Pupu his elixirs?
Oh god. I always forget one

Shear Feather?
The name’s probably wrong, but I think it’s a feather or something.

Odin?
Thats close enough. If you read it I said which of the gfs familiars:P Trying to be fancy,
But yeah its Odins horse so go for it man~
FF1WithAllThieves

double
Ketevan
09-26-2006, 06:33 PM
They all carry a sword.
They are all guarding something. Odin is guarding his castle, Squall is guarding Rinoa as her knight, and Seifer is guarding Edea/Ultimecia as her knight.
They all carry a sword.
That would be my answer.
Or they are all knights protecting someone?
jewess crabcake
09-27-2006, 05:02 PM
Hmm a toughie Xander hit it on the nose buut IDX got the gist and first but you were both right… well argue amongst yourselves.
P.S. Odin was a sorceress knight as well when you go into centra ruins it tells you his story.
I’ll give it to Xander because he got closer to it saying they are all knights. But when does it say that Odin was a knight? Was it when you go to the ruins before he joins you?
pkpeople
09-28-2006, 12:49 AM
there was a question earlier asking how many people use a gunblade.. i think it maybe 4 because when your in the d-district prison and your getting your weapons back a guard there swings squalls gunblade.. so you might wanna just consider that into thought =-0
Yeah when you first go to the ruins IDX.
Ok hows this one.
Excluding, Micro missiles, Bad breath, Degenerator, Homing lazer and lazer eye.

Wasnt she the owner of the Timber Pub? Has links with Rinoa?!?

Im going to make a cup of tea then I shall post a question. I pondered which question to post while eating toast with butter and drinking a cup of tea with two sugars.
And my question is this. Figure out the riddle.
I can cure people but I can also kill them. I am mainly thought of in times of dire need. And am used more at the start of the game then later on.
what am I?
Lukey
10-11-2006, 02:52 AM
I’m guessing something like a Potion or a Cure spell or a Phoenix Down. All can help as well as harm you under Zombie status. But they’re a little too obvious I think.
Gimme an answer and I will tell you if you are right or not.
Lukey
10-11-2006, 03:22 AM

New question from Agent
Agent0042
10-15-2006, 04:28 AM
Hrm, okay, new question…
Okay, this should be interesting — in what optional conversation does Selphie suggest that if Zell doesn’t look like a chicken, maybe he looks like a pig?
Lukey
10-15-2006, 04:32 AM
It’s around when you first meet Selphie, and they’re talking about jumping off the cliff, I think?
If so, my answer is the "You wouldn’t normally jump off a cliff" dialogue (or is it trialogue?)
Agent0042
10-15-2006, 04:40 AM
Yes, Cornesy. A bit more specific — when they say "You wouldn’t normally jump off a cliff," what does Squall have to answer?
Lukey
10-15-2006, 06:34 AM
Something like, "Yeah, I guess so…"
"You wouldn’t have normally jumped" or something.
Agent0042
10-15-2006, 04:23 PM
Sorry, neither of those choices will trigger the conversation. One of them is an answer the game allows, but it won’t trigger the conversation. The other one isn’t one of the choices.
Cornesy — normally I would have given it to you, but since you’re already doing most of the questions, you have to get a bit more in order to get the next question.
I know the answer. But I am not allowed to participate in this round. As I promised Agent I wouldn:P
Agent0042
10-16-2006, 02:59 AM
No. Here’s a hint — the correct choice conveys close the opposite.
Um….. "I guess you’re right"?

Hole in his pocket, right? I can’t recall him losing one because of sneezing, although if he did, then IDX gets the question.

11-08-2006, 04:29 AM
Ellone was Squall and the others key to seeing Laguna in the past.
And Laguna lost her.
Best guess I got,lol.
Ya, he sneezed.
I know this one because I just played that part. He puts it in his chest pocket because he knows about that whole in his back pocket. Then he sneezes and loses it again and says, "Oh well, it’s not like I’ll die."
Okay, here’s my first question!
When you’re playing as Laguna the second time and make him remove a lever to make an Esthar soldier fall through his trap, what happens when you go back as Squall?
FF1WithAllThieves
11-08-2006, 11:52 PM
You’re being vague in your question…
You can enter an area you couldn’t before.
You’re being vague in your question…
You can enter an area you couldn’t before.
Yeah, I’m sorry. I’m not that good at explaining things.
It’s more like a loose lever that’s keeping this latch in place. But Laguna removes the loose lever and an Esthar soldier falls in. The question is: what has happened when you visit that same spot, but playing as Squall?
FF1WithAllThieves
11-09-2006, 11:12 PM
I know what you meant, but your question wasn’t specific enough, so my answer was enough. Anyway, the answer is that there’s a draw point available.
Yup.
Silence is what’s in the draw point.

Okay.
If you visit Zell’s room during the occupation of Balamb sequence on Disc 2, tell me about at least two of the reactions of other characters in your party to the items in Zell’s room.
Olde
11-10-2006, 06:05 AM
is it:
Irvine takes a gun off the wall, Zell feels like he’s impressed him, and Irvine accidently fires (Squall thinks "I knew he would…")
Rinoa examines a photo of Zell’s grandfather and Zell talks about how great he was.
Agent0042
11-10-2006, 06:20 AM
Yeah, that’s good. Your go.
Ahh even though I dont answer the question. I always liked Quistis’s Reaction about the T-boards
Mr Jack
11-10-2006, 12:31 PM
i dont think i have ever actually seen any of these reactions before ;-(
—Target for next time – eh!—
I liked the part when Irvine came in as well. Had me laughing. I also liked the part where Zell tells everyone not to touch anything and Selphie just plops on the bed and Zell starts to kinda "freak out".
Olde

Well I’ve never done the Pupu thing myself but I think nothing happens if you kill him because you’re supposed to give him something in order to reap the rewards of the sidequest IIRC
We are still on the same page we were on when I left.
Yikes this needs to get some momentum people
Well I’ve never done the Pupu thing myself but I think nothing happens if you kill him because you’re supposed to give him something in order to reap the rewards of the sidequest IIRC
Wrong! You do get something whether you give him what he asks or kill him :D.
If you eat him, you get a Hungry Cookpot. Not sure if you also get that if you kill him…

Maybe we should just move on to another question? It seems to me like that’s been the thing in the past that’s often killed these trivia threads — nobody was able to come up with the answer to a particular question and eventually it just got forgotten. This is a pretty tough question, I mean, I’m sure I knew the answer at one time. And would recognize it if I saw it, but right now, I really can’t think of it myself.
Olde
04-10-2007, 03:32 AM
Isn’t it a Jet Engine, or is that only if you mug him?
I agree with Agent this thread was not long revived lets not kill it again. Give whoever made the last question 48 hours to make a new one or it will become a free question to the first taker.
Okay, I’ll just end it and save everyone the trouble :(. I actually thought that Agent would have the answer too. I’m pretty proud of myself :D!
Anyways, you would get the Pupu card if you give him the elixers. But if you kill him, you would get the accelerator.
So go ahead whoever the next poster is!

Undead enemies.

04-26-2007, 05:31 AM
Lukey’s right, although I believe if you use it on Ultimecia’s Final Form, it goes straight to the monologue, so she’s not completely destroyed yet.
Yeah. It won’t completely destroy Ultimecia’s Final Form. And if you use it everytime after that, her monologue will just continue like it would if you used a regular physical attack.

All right, it’s Lukey’s then, if he wants it.

Agent0042
10-18-2007, 07:49 PM
No, it definitely wasn’t, but it’s been five days since the question was posted and nobody else has come up with anything closer. Unless somebody else can come up with the right answer within 24 hours, I’m doing the next question.
Espanha

My obsessive-compulsiveness would not let me rest until I looked it up: Buchubuchus and Bunbuns. Order has been established.

๐ LOL, I was gonna post it anyway before I posted the next question. But yeah, it is indeed those "Buchubuchus and bunbuns that Assistant Commander Elle oh-so-hates."
Okay, hrm, a new question…
All right, this may be a bit of a challenge, but I don’t think overly difficult for anyone that knows the game reasonably well. When Squall has Ellone take him back to Rinoa’s past, what are the first two scenes that he witnesses?
bass_ace31
10-21-2007, 02:27 AM
with zell when she asks him for the ring and when shes in the truck with irvine when everyone is still at the prison.
Agent0042
10-21-2007, 02:51 AM
Yes, on both counts. Your question, then, bass_ace31.
bass_ace31
10-21-2007, 03:33 AM
alright…
name two occasions during the game where a task completed correctly results in a raise in seed level.
besides when you fight the galbadian soldier in balamb.
FF1WithAllThieves
10-21-2007, 07:15 AM
The train job in Timber and the Galbadian Missle Base (you have to choose the smallest amount of time, I believe).
bass_ace31
10-22-2007, 01:35 AM
yea thats right
other ones are saving rinoa, turning the wheel and defeating ultima weapon
Agent0042
10-22-2007, 02:15 AM
The SeeD Rank guide at GameFAQs has a few other good examples of things that will affect your rank, usually negatively, like having Squall show off his gunblade. As for the Missile Base, it’s true the setting of the timer has a big effect, but it’s also based a lot on how much finesse you show (I.E. not simply fighting your way through.)
FF1WithAllThieves
10-22-2007, 06:01 PM
Yeah, I couldn’t remember all the details about the missle base, but anyway, I’ll post the next question, a fairly easy one:
What is the maximum starting SeeD rank?
Mierna
10-22-2007, 08:37 PM
Erm…SeeD Rank 5?
bass_ace31
10-22-2007, 08:57 PM
i think its 9
Agent0042
10-22-2007, 11:47 PM
I’m not going to take this one, but I will just say that nobody is right so far.
FF1WithAllThieves
10-23-2007, 06:03 PM
Agent is right that nobody got it so far. I think this rank may be only attainable if you get the bonus, but I’m not completely sure.
McDohl
10-23-2007, 07:08 PM
I think the answer is SeeD rank 10. I’m pretty sure you have to basically do everything right during the dollet mission to get it, though.
RAMChYLD
10-24-2007, 01:39 AM
I think the answer is SeeD rank 10. I’m pretty sure you have to basically do everything right during the dollet mission to get it, though.
Yeah. Also, while waiting for your result, you may be asked if you remember why they stopped using satellite signals. The answer is because of radio interference. If I’m not mistaken your answer to that question also adds to your starting rank.
Agent0042
10-24-2007, 01:46 AM
If it does, there’s nothing about it in GameFAQs’s SeeD Rank Guide. The rank is calculated by this formula, from that guide — Initial Rank = ([500 + Sum of Modifiers]/100) + Bonus
FF1WithAllThieves
10-25-2007, 04:20 PM
Yes, 10 is correct. Just so you know, I’ve managed to get it without a completely perfect score; I got 100s on everything except attack and conduct (it takes a little bit of time for the game to let you kill X-ATM092). On attack I got a 90 (which saved me from defeating 50 enemies) and I got a 60 or so on conduct, and I still started with 10. I got the bonus, of course.
Anyway, your question.
McDohl
10-25-2007, 10:41 PM
Alrighty, I think this one is pretty simple, but where do you obtain Rinoa’s card?
RAMChYLD
10-26-2007, 01:54 AM
From her father in Deling City if I’m not mistaken. You must lose the Ifrit card to get her card, then head to FH and play against Martine to get it back.
McDohl
10-26-2007, 10:01 AM
Yep, your question.
RAMChYLD
10-26-2007, 11:08 AM

From Fisherman’s Horizon, how do you get to the Cetra ruins?
Mierna

Olde
10-29-2007, 08:09 PM
Yeah Xandy, you’re right. If for ever reason you want to downgrade Rinoa’s weapon back to her very first model, the pinwheel, you only need 3 m-stone pieces.
I don’t know if this has been asked before, but here’s the new question:
What happens when you use Rinoa’s limit break Angel Wing when she doesn’t have any magic stocked?
discodan
10-29-2007, 10:34 PM
I don’t know if this has been asked before, but here’s the new question:

If Rinoa doesnt hav any magic during Angel Wing status, she attacks physically. Kind of like Bezerk only without the strength bonus.
Kind of making it pointless.
Mierna
10-29-2007, 11:46 PM
Actually, the magic doesn’t come from her inventory.
discodan
10-30-2007, 12:07 AM
Actually, the magic doesn’t come from her inventory.
It does not remove it from your magic inven ie…. she has 100 firagas, casts firaga in Angel wings…. She will still have 100 after the battle is over, is that what ur sayin?
FF1WithAllThieves
10-30-2007, 01:11 AM

It would be very nice if Xandy would respond as to whether the answer(s) given were correct. If he doesn’t, one of you guys should take the question.

You mean the character that appears in the first scene? Dr. Kadowaki.

Ok, here’s an easy one, if you’ve seen my recent post at the "What was you latest purchase" thread (ok, not so recent, but it’s there).
How many discs does the EA Classics set of the PC version of Final Fantasy VIII come in?
I cant remember of the top of my head. But its three iirc?
jewess crabcake

Nope, Final Fantasy 8 comes on a minimum of 4 discs for the PSOne.
5, install disc = Play disc 1-4.
Nope. Close, but not it. Here’s a hint: They replaced the manual.

Correct, FF1WithAllThieves! There are 6 discs: The Installer disc, 4 game discs, and in the place of the manual, a sixth disc with a soft copy of the manual in it.
Your turn to ask the question.

Which well-known Final Fantasy song outside of FFVIII begins with the same theme as The Successor? (~ 0:33 – 1:20)
FF1WithAllThieves
11-30-2007, 06:34 AM
Would you mind telling me where in the game that one begins? I’m sorry, but I just don’t know many of them by name.
Agent0042
11-30-2007, 04:12 PM
"The Successor" is the tune that plays when Squall ends up back at the orphanage of the past after the Ultimecia fight and Edea inherits Ultimecia’s powers.
FF1WithAllThieves
11-30-2007, 04:32 PM
I went and listened to it, and I know it, but I wanna give everybody else a chance in case somebody knows it without having to go listen to it.

Actually, I hear more than one musical device used in other games, but one of them is just an accompaniment figure while another appears in the melody.

Im guessing The Nightmare’s Beginning From VII….
IDK and I cant really think of anything else that sounds like it…it has a similar run
FF1WithAllThieves
11-30-2007, 09:34 PM
That’s the melodic one I heard. The accompaniment figure with the scale degrees 5, #5, 6, #5 appears in the forest music of FFVI.
Olde
12-01-2007, 01:28 AM
The one I was hoped someone would choose was Vamo’ Alla Flamenco, from FFIX, however, I’m accepting The Phantom Forest, as FF1WithAllThieves found, because it also begins with the same chord pattern as The Successor (as Thieves said, 5, #5, 6, #5). Thus, the question goes to him.
FF1WithAllThieves
12-01-2007, 11:35 PM

Can’t really accept that, since she was King until she passed it on to Quistis (who is also not the right answer).

Well, several other people have guessed, and I don’t know of any specific rule against guessing again… so. I think AllThieves hint put me on to the right answer… Headmaster Cid?
FF1WithAllThieves
12-03-2007, 05:07 AM
Yes indeed! (Yeah, that’s an enemy attack in Chrono Trigger, I know).
Headmaster Cid was the correct answer; I suppose it’s a little piece of the dialogue that you guys must have missed (paraphrased because I don’t remember it completely):
"It’s been a long time since anybody defeated us!"
"Ever since Headmaster Cid."
So anyway, it’s Agent’s question now.
Agent0042
12-03-2007, 05:51 AM
Actually, I kinda remembered it once I saw your hint.
All right, new question, let’s see… okay. Let’s see if anyone can get this one. In Shumi Village, the Sculptor names six great features of the moombas when Zell refers to them as "beasts." Name… oh, at least three of those features.

Agent0042
12-05-2007, 05:06 PM
No. All right, tell you what, you’re all released. Here are the six great features of the moomba…
Sculptor: "Did you not see their noble features? Their gem-like eyes revealing innocence! Their bright red hair symbolizing passion! Their spectacular hair signifying power! Their soothing, adorable cries! Their mighty hands with incredible strength! Their proud posture demanding respect! Everything about them is great!"
I release it. Anyone can have a new question if they want it. IDX Rider, I suppose you get first dibs, since you were closer than anyone. You mentioned hair twice in a way and so did the Sculptor and you also said the red part again.
FF1WithAllThieves
12-07-2007, 08:55 PM
Alright, IDX had his chance.
Name all of the player cards that are tied for the highest sum of all of their numbers (A=10).
I did indeed miss my chance. That’s what I get for not being on for a day.
That question dont make sense. FF1 but from I remember, Squall and Seifers add up to make the same and they are probably the highest.
FF1WithAllThieves
12-09-2007, 06:17 PM
You just add up all four numbers on the card and count As as 10. Squall and Seifer are two of three, can you name the other one?
Mierna
12-09-2007, 07:03 PM
Squall + Seifer + Zell + Kiros: Their cards equal 29.
Rinoa + Edea: Their cards equal 26.
Irvine + Quistis + Laguna + Ward: Their cards equal 27.
And Selphie’s all alone…
FF1WithAllThieves
12-09-2007, 08:23 PM
Yes that’s right; somehow I had forgotten that Kiros was up there too, but your question.
Mierna
12-12-2007, 12:27 AM
How come Squall and Rinoa’s last names (Leonhart and Heartilly) are never mentioned when they say their names?

I am under the impression that there isn’t an answer to that.

Same thoughts with FF1WithAllThieves, but my other thoughts is that their surname was was thought up by Square’s marketing only after the game was completed, and they didn’t feel like making any further changes to the script.

Ok, I’ll post one, just to keep the thread alive.
You need to be of a certain level to be able to beat X-ATM092 in Dollet. True or False?
FF1WithAllThieves
12-20-2007, 06:08 AM
Completely false. You simply have to have the means to take down its HP before it repairs itself, and you have to do it multiple times on the bridge. Junctioning Tornado to Squall’s Str stat and using Renzokuken will do the trick nicely.
RAMChYLD
12-21-2007, 05:38 AM
Correct, although you don’t really need to take it out at the bridge- You can do it on second encounter after you run away from the first.

What is the status that you have cast on T-Rex to defeat him the first time?
FF1WithAllThieves
01-11-2008, 09:32 PM
Well, you don’t HAVE to cast any kind of status on him; I beat him in about two hits, thanks to the fact that I junctioned 100 tornado’s to Squall’s str stat and gave him str+40%. However, the SUGGESTED status effect that Quistis tells you about is sleep, I believe. If I’m not mistaken, she gives you a full tutorial of status attack, and suggests junctioning sleep to it.
Hmmm, I thought it was blind…
FF1WithAllThieves
01-12-2008, 01:40 AM
Blind is certainly helpful against T-Rexaur, but I’m fairly sure the tutorial on status atk is sleep. Then again, I always just canceled out of it immediately because I know the junction system better than the game does.
discodan
01-12-2008, 01:43 AM
Sleep is correct, per the tutorial…. at that point in the game at least.

What do you have to do in order to get the Lionheart gunblade on the first disc (including items you need, who drops them, if you need to refine items then tell me what that item is and what does it refine into, and the monsters that drop the items)?
Meltigemini
01-19-2008, 06:03 PM
Ok…
First you will need to get your average party level somewhere between lv20-29 and fight T-Rexaurs to get the Dragon Fangs (they only drop them at these levels and I think they’re the only enemy on disc 1 to drop them).
You’ll then need to get to over lv30 and get an Adamantine from the Adamantoises on the beach near Dollet.
In the second Laguna sequence (assuming you’re already lv30) fight in the screen with the staircase and get an Elastoid every second battle (they’re pretty rare anywhere else if I remember) and mug to get Laser Cannons. You’ll need 3 of these to refine into 5 Pulse Ammo each with Ammo-RF and you need 12 total for the weapon.
Then you’ll need a bit of money too, 2000 is it? Or 1200… can’t remember the amount. But you’ll have that anyway. :p
And if this is anywhere near right I’ll be amazed because I haven’t played this game in years.

Agent0042

I’m going to take a gamble at this — Slow, Haste, Silence, Blind, Confuse and Aura. Probably not right — if not, can you give me how many were correct, since nobody else seems to be trying?
RikkuYunaRinoa
04-29-2008, 10:04 PM
I wouldn’t have said slow, because some bosses are immune to it arn’t they?
I’ll say..
Haste,Float,Regen,Reflect,Shell,Aura
??
I’ll also ask the same as Agent, please can you let me know which ones are correct. Thanks
What would Aura do to most enemies? The only thing I can recall it doing is getting Raijin to use "Raijin Special" and getting that robot at the end of the prison place use Gaitling Gun.

No idea, probably. Your answer may be closer to the mark — I guess we’ll find out.
As for Aura — I seem to recall that it could be applied to enemies, it was just that it worked differently. Gave them a boost, somehow.
Read his question. It says anything in the game. Not just enemies.
:rolleyes:
Obviously not JUST enemies, but "everything in the game" does include enemies… :rolleyes: I don’t get what you’re trying to prove here.
I just was wondering how if every enemy in the game (including bosses and such because they’re also "anything") could have Aura cast on them, how there could be a special move each of them uses when in has it, since Aura on allies doesn’t really affect stats, it helps them use certain abilities.
Same with Aura when Raijin uses it on himself, as does that robot in the prison. I guess Agent’s answer makes sense that it boosts stats of most enemies rather than help them use a move. The above two actually use it themselves, so it makes sense that it would help them use a move, and there may be more enemies like that.
RikkuYunaRinoa
04-29-2008, 11:15 PM
It looked like you were saying that Aura couldn’t be one of the statuses, because it didn’t do much to enemies. And iirc, it still did something. So we’ll see.
discodan
04-30-2008, 12:02 AM
What about Meltdown?
I know its not so much a status magic, makes vit = 0, i seem to remember that it worked on all enemies and bosses after u can draw it..
never cast scan on em, but they all turned purple!!!
Noobinabox
04-30-2008, 02:51 AM
Aura, Meltdown, and Shell are three of the six that have been mentioned by Agent, Discodan, and Cookie.
Agent0042
04-30-2008, 03:32 AM
So.. none of the others were correct then. Interesting. All right, if Shell is one, how about Protect? Hmm… I’ll go Doom also, although that’s probably not right. And I’ll try Poison, though I’m pretty sure that isn’t right.
Damn, this is a tough one.
If I’m wrong on any, then just say which are right again, and I’ll bow out for at least twelve hours to give someone else a crack at it.
What kind of status change does Shell do?
Agent0042
04-30-2008, 04:03 AM
Well, "Shell" is considered a status. A protective status, but still a status.
What about protect or reflect? Would they count as well? I also believe Curse is a status ailment too.
Noobinabox
04-30-2008, 08:24 AM
Good Job, Agent, on the deductive reasoning.
Protect is now added to the list.
Protect
Shell
Vit0
Aura
Only two more.
Reflect isn’t one? That would have been my next guess.
I’m gonna hazard a guess at Berserk, seeing as it’s viewed as more of a positive status than a negative one.
Hmmm… Silence also appears to be a possibility, but probably isn’t right…
discodan
04-30-2008, 07:04 PM
Haste?
Dispel?

Regen has already been said, Float, however, I don’t believe has. Neither "Dispel" nor "Cure" are statuses. Haste I think may have been said, but if it hasn’t, I don’t see it as likely. Could be wrong, though.
Noobinabox
04-30-2008, 10:00 PM
Nice brainstorming!
Since it seems like everyone is lost, I’ll provide a hint:
Vit0 is the only status of the six that does not benefit the inflicted (character/monster/boss/etc).
Ummmmmm…. Invincibility? Throwing Heros at whatever, works?
EDIT: wait. Double and Triple! How can we have missed those? It has to be them.
RikkuYunaRinoa
04-30-2008, 11:00 PM
Haha, damn. I would imagine its them aswell. I forgot about them to.
I hope it is, I’m getting intrigued as to what they are.
Noobinabox
04-30-2008, 11:42 PM
Gj, Zak.
The six were:
Protect and Shell
Double and Triple
Aura
and Vit0.
I’ll give it to Zak if no one objects.
If you were wondering…here’s the distribution of people who first guessed the status.
Protect – Agent
Shell – Cookie
Aura – Agent
Double – Zak
Triple – Zak
Vit0 – Discodan
So, it’s technically a tie between Zak and Agent. However, Zak got the two less obvious ones that nobody else guessed.
Hmm… well, I want it since I just sorta joined this thread. Sorry Agent, hope you don’t mind… probably would have let me have it anyway.
Okay, I hope this isn’t too tough a question:
There are two tracks on the OST whose titles are names of locations in the game. However, there is one other location in the game they play which isn’t the one in the title. What are the two and what are the other locations they’re at?
Like for example, say there was a track called "Timber", and aside from being played there, it also was in Galbadia Garden (completely fictitious example, there isn’t even such a track). But that’s the general idea. Two tracks with location-names, and places they’re played which aren’t said locations.
And to be fair, I’ll probably also give it to whoever gets the last detail, but we’ll see.
Fisherman’s Horizon and Galbadia GARDEN are the tracks with town names.
And I believe Shumi Village is where they also played Fisherman’s Horizon. Because I’m a little confused at what you’re asking, are saying that only 1 of these tracks are played elsewhere or both?
Noobinabox
05-01-2008, 12:54 AM
Let me confirm this. You’ll get credit if its true.
Edit:
I haven’t found fisherman’s horizon music at Shumi Village just yet.
I did find the music they play from Balamb Town in Shumi Village. However, there is no track named "Balamb Town."
Edit:They also play the Balamb Town type music in chocobo forests. I’m not sure if its all the forests though.
…but…Ahah! I got one. They play a guitar remix of "Balamb Garden" when Selphie and friends visit Trabia Garden.
IDX – Both these tracks are played elsewhere other than their corresponding location, the question is what are these tracks and where.
And to answer your questions, "Fisherman’s Horizon" does not play in Shumi Village. Good try though…
I know they play some kind of music in the village, just can’t remember which piece it was, but Fisherman’s Horizon came to mind.
Oh, and Noobinabox, I didn’t see your edit, but if it’s a "Guitar remix" of Balamb Garden, it’s a different track. There are so many variations of Balamb Garden on the OST and so many of Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec as well as of Eyes On Me. I mean the specific track. For instance, the one in Trabia is called "Where I Belong".
Noobinabox
05-01-2008, 01:35 AM
But, the name of the song must include the location where it is first played?
In that case, I have 6 songs that are also locations:
Balamb Garden
Galbadia Garden
Fisherman’s Horizon
The Salt Flats
Lunatic Pandora
The Castle
If you consider "Timber Owls" a location, then I know they play that track when Laguna is making his "movie."
"Dancing with the BalambFish" is originally played in Dollet. However, you can hear it when your party first heads to the lunar station.

Yes the name of the song must include the location it is first played, like the ones you listed would be good candidates for the ones I’m looking for. But I actually don’t consider "Timber Owls" a location, because that’s a name of a group, plus that track is not played IN Timber regularly. Good reckon though, keep thinking.
The funny thing though in FFX there’s a track called "Macalania Forest, which is only played in the couple screens bordering on Bevelle and the Calm Lands while the rest of the actual forest plays a different track throughout the whole game.
But none of the VIII tracks are like that.

05-01-2008, 02:27 AM
It’s freakin’ EYES ON ME. It plays in Laguna’s dream sequence and in the Shumi hotel.
EDIT: Never mind. I dont reed good.
It’s freakin’ EYES ON ME. It plays in Laguna’s dream sequence and in the Shumi hotel.
You completely misunderstood the question. First of all, there isn’t a place called "Eyes on Me" last time I checked, so there you have it. Aside from that, the two places you mentioned don’t even play "Eyes on Me", you’re thinking of "Julia". EYES ON ME is the vocal one.
There are other versions of Eyes On Me, but they have different names.
Agent0042
05-01-2008, 08:12 PM
All right, let me see if I have this straight. Would I be right in thinking that the names of the two correct answers have already been mentioned, and now we have to ID exactly which ones those are, and where they play other than the locations they’re named for?

Unless Noobinabox missed one when listing them, exactly.
But… oh, alright, yes, they’ve both been mentioned already. And everything else you said is correct.
Agent0042
05-01-2008, 09:02 PM
Right, okay. Well, I’ll take a crack at it…
It’s a toughie. Would it be all right if I try to pin down the two exact songs? I’m going with Fisherman’s Horizon and Lunatic Pandora. And I’ll say (probably not right) that Fisherman’s Horizon also plays in Dollet at some point and Lunatic Pandora plays in Esthar.
Noobinabox
05-01-2008, 09:32 PM
I got one of them.
"Fisherman’s Horizon" is played at Winhill (when you go there as Squall)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdrFpcFJ3Fw
Nice one, Noobinabox! That’s the easy one… FH plays in Winhill.
Good guess Agent, but the other one is a different song.
Noobinabox
05-03-2008, 01:18 PM
I’m not spending any more time on this. Too much game footage to search through.
But, I’ll take credit for the FH/Winhill answer.

05-04-2008, 03:49 AM
I gave up, but as I said earlier, I’d be glad to take credit for half an answer.
RikkuYunaRinoa
05-04-2008, 12:24 PM
Okay, I’m pretty sure i am way off.
But its not "The salt flats" is it?
Meltigemini
05-05-2008, 12:35 PM
I think you’re right actually, it plays in the Sorceress memorial before the Lunar Cry if I remember right… you can have the next question if it’s right though, I won’t steal it. ๐
Nice one guys, that’s it… I dunno who to give credit for the answer, haha any one of the three of you can take it.
It was The Salt Flats in the Sorceress Memorial.
Noobinabox
05-05-2008, 09:25 PM
I’ll take it.
What is one scenario in which a character under the effects of Hero (or Holy War) gets knocked out (i.e. HP gets reduced to 0).
Noobinabox
05-07-2008, 03:28 AM
no, doom isn’t it.
RikkuYunaRinoa
05-07-2008, 03:31 AM
Zombie?
My guess is there’s a certain boss that uses something that exploits it.
Hmm, what if you’re fighting Odin… and because when you fight him he always uses Zantetsuken only when the timer runs out, and the point is to defeat him before he uses it (since he doesn’t do anything else). If everyone’s invincible there, I find it hard to believe they’d still survive Zantetsuken since it’s connected with the timer.
Is that it?
Noobinabox
05-07-2008, 03:55 AM
Actually, that was a good guess.
But, it’s not the answer I’m looking for.
I should specify to say that this situation (of the character being knocked out with the effects of hero) can be reenacted in a random encounter or a boss fight.
Agent0042
05-07-2008, 03:56 AM
My guess is that isn’t it because that’s technically just a Game Over, not a KO. I’m gonna go with Petrify for now, though it’s probably not right.
Noobinabox
05-07-2008, 05:30 AM
Here’s a big hint:
The KO’d character is not KO’d because of any actions made by the boss/monster.
Agent0042
05-07-2008, 05:34 AM
Hmm. I’d say they attack themselves or other characters attack them, but that almost seems too easy. Yet I can’t think of anything else — I was gonna say Poison status, but that has to be inflicted by the monster first. So I guess I will go with self/party attacks.
RikkuYunaRinoa
05-07-2008, 11:57 AM
Confuse maybe? Though I think that’s what Agent meant.
I should point out that I’m extremely tired at the moment.

05-07-2008, 06:38 PM

While a player is under the effects of Hero, magic has no effect on that player.

05-07-2008, 10:31 PM
Wild stab in the dark. Using the ability Darkside?
Noobinabox
05-07-2008, 11:54 PM
Good Job Ketevan. Using the ability Darkside will eventually kill a character, even if that character is under the effects of Hero or Holy War.
I dunno if Kamikaze is the same though. Would be interesting to find out though.
I believe Kamikaze would still kill them. They don’t take damage, they just blow up to the point where you can’t even revive them until the battle is over.
Agent0042
05-08-2008, 03:09 AM
Man, I really need to play this game again. Though, then again, I never really used Darkside anyway…
Noobinabox
05-08-2008, 06:05 AM
I heard Darkside works really well if you have Drain junctioned to ST-J Attack.
Hm, I wonder if a command like Darkside is counterable by tonberries.
I know that GF’s cannot be countered as well as limit breaks. (Everyone’s grudge does hurt sometimes).
Man, I really need to play this game again. Though, then again, I never really used Darkside anyway…
qft
But Shaiya isn’t going to play itself, so that’s where I come in. So I’m almost always occupied to the point where I can’t get around to playing this again….yet.
Ketevan
05-08-2008, 10:03 AM
I didn’t think I’d get it first time. ^^
Okay, I’ll pass the next question to somebody else for the time being seen as I’m pretty busy at the moment.
Alright… I will take it then.
Hmm… challenge… let’s see.
Name five fake items mentioned in the SeeD tests (on false statements obviously). Yep, a total of five fake items.
Noobinabox
05-08-2008, 11:07 PM
So far, I’ve resented all of your trivia.
Anyway, here are the five:
Blue Spike, Hi-Potion+, Bandit’s Hand, Phoenix Heart, and Torama’s Beard.
While searching through all of the questions, I found one that said
1. No magic removes Doom
Ans: Yes
Which isn’t as true as they say it is. The effects of doom can be prevented by a character afflicted by zombie or holy war/hero.

Hah, cause it’s lame or cause it’s hard?
For the record all my trivia’s gonna be like this.
Anyway, four of those are right. Hi-Potion+ is a real item, it just doesn’t do what they say it does. So that leaves one left…
Also I think they meant they’ll still be in Doom status but nothing will happen. Like, there’s still gonna be a countdown no matter what, but you can stop them from dying.
Agent0042
05-08-2008, 11:27 PM
I didn’t know we were allowed to search through or check the game. Though you’d almost have to on something like this.
In that case, how about the Gauntlet? Or do fake weapon names count?
Wait, never mind. The Gauntlet is a real weapon for Zell… But what about the "shinobu"? … No, I guess that’s real too…
Noobinabox
05-08-2008, 11:59 PM
I have a list of "fake" things that they mentioned.
Sorcery, Action Point, Magic Sword, Ability Tone Black (ATB), Blue Spikes, Walk-Gil, Watera/Waterga, Bandit’s Hand, Phoenix Heart, Torama’s Beard.
This trivia is alright, but the OST one was frustratingly difficult. Like, there’s challenging difficult, and there’s frustratingly difficult.
Agent0042
05-09-2008, 12:14 AM
Magic Sword, then?
Nah, good try, I don’t consider weapon names items. Also, Noobinabox, you missed "Double GF" and "Garden Fighter" and the "GraBia" monster as well… and my item.
EDIT: and you also missed "Kenzokuken".
Oh and technically "Sorcery" is something because it’s Edea’s Limit Break category thing.
And yeah I was gonna do another OST question since it’d be tough but then I thought of this.
Agent0042
05-09-2008, 05:07 AM
Right, I think I have it. "Dinosaur Fang"?
Yep Agent, that’s it! Feel free to have the next question, or Noob can have it.
Agent0042
05-09-2008, 05:52 AM
Noob got four out of five — it’s his unless he doesn’t want it.
Noobinabox
05-09-2008, 07:28 AM
Hey thanks, alrighty then.
What are all of the benefits and detriments for the status of zombie?
There are 5 total for player controlled characters and 6 for computer controlled enemies (the same five as the players’ plus another one).
As you get the obvious ones, I will give you hints as to how I classified them.
Grr… I can’t stand your trivia as well, I’m so gonna get you if I get this one. Hah..
First of all, are the five player ones the same as 5/6 of the enemy ones? Or you don’t want to tell me, that’s alright.
Okay, obvious ones:
Pros:
-Immune to death (both)
-Immune to "The End" (enemies, unless that’s the same as Death but it isn’t really)
Cons:
-Can’t be cured.
-This might not be one, I forget if this was the case here or in IX or in both, where if you’re KOed, revival spells and Phoenix Downs won’t work until you take away the status.
-Regen becomes Poison.
I don’t know..
Noobinabox
05-09-2008, 12:34 PM
Alright, Zak, you got quite a few…
Regen, Phoenix Down, and all of that I put under the category "curative" because they are all very obvious once you think on the level of raising the HP of another player.
So Zak has:
Cannot be Cured
Immune to Death Magic
Immune to Selphie’s The End
All of the player-controlled character benefits and detriments are the same as the non-player controlled benefits and detriments (The End was an extra one for the non-player controlled characters)
So there are 3 more that need to be mentioned.
Ketevan
05-09-2008, 12:41 PM
Cons:
Holy causes more damage (x2/x3?)
Fire, I believe also causes more damage but I’m not sure.
I think there was a question on the SeeD test saying that Fire causes more damage and it was false.
Noobinabox
05-09-2008, 09:35 PM
True, Fire does not cause more damage, but holy does. (I think by a factor of 2)
So we need 2 more.
RikkuYunaRinoa
05-09-2008, 09:44 PM
Immune to doom?
Noobinabox
05-09-2008, 11:27 PM
Yea, that’s another one down. One more to go.
Meltigemini
05-10-2008, 01:17 PM
I know this is true in some other games, but I can’t remember if it is in FF8. Here goes anyway…
If someone (enemy or ally) casts Drain on a zombied character, the character casting the spell takes damage and the zombie is healed. This would make it a positive. ๐
Noobinabox
05-10-2008, 02:18 PM
I considered that too, but I also considered it as a detriment for whatever casted the drain rather than the one who was inflicted with zombie.
If you have ever taken chemistry, this comparison might work:
I’m only counting the benefits and detriments of the system, not the surroundings.
Physical attacks are weakened if you’re under the Zombie status.
One-hit KO when using Phoenix Downs, the Recover/Revive abilities, etc on an enemy who’s under the Zombie status.
Noobinabox
05-11-2008, 09:40 PM
Physical attacks are weakened if you’re under the Zombie status.
One-hit KO when using Phoenix Downs, the Recover/Revive abilities, etc on an enemy who’s under the Zombie status.
Other posters have already mentioned that cure has the opposite effect. And, I’ve categorized all of the Cure magic/items/commands under one detriment.
Though, your first statement comes close to a correct answer.
I’m gonna just throw this out there and guess that Magic is less effective.
Noobinabox
05-12-2008, 02:40 AM
False.
Noobinabox
05-17-2008, 02:56 PM
Ok, looks like everyone has given up.
The last one was a benefit: Increased Strength while under the influence of zombie.
Alrighty, lets tally up the correct answers
Zak has 3
Ketevan has 1
Cookie has 1
*Puts 5 pieces of paper into a cup*
Zak wins…darn.
Alright, sorry for the delay, was trying to think of a challenge and got distracted and then almost forgot about this.
I still can’t really… well, alright. Another OST question: Name all SIX places where "Find Your Way" is played. Half should be obvious…
Meltigemini
05-21-2008, 12:45 AM
Fire Cavern
Tomb of the Unknown King
Centra Ruins
Second Laguna sequence (Lunatic Pandora)
Shumi Village entrance
Can’t think of the last…
Yep those are all correct, one more… it is rather tricky.
Wasn’t it somewhere around Great Salt Lake (for some reason, I don’t think that’s what it’s called)?
UnlimitedBladeWorks
05-21-2008, 04:33 AM
What does "Find Your Way" mean?
jewess crabcake
05-21-2008, 04:37 AM
It’s the name of a song. OST means Official SoundTrack
Agent0042
05-21-2008, 04:50 AM
For some reason I’m thinking another of the Laguna sequences — perhaps in the one where Laguna fights the Ruby Dragon, just after the part where Laguna has to fight it solo, if you go to get geared up.
Agent – that’s a REALLY close guess, but not quite. Both the Slideshow tracks play.
Meltigemini
05-21-2008, 11:10 PM
Ah, I think I remember now. You can actually revisit the canyon where that Laguna sequence happened, doesn’t it play there?
There’s nothing to see there at all by the way, if you never went there. :p
Noobinabox
05-21-2008, 11:22 PM
Yea, it’s called Trabia Canyon
Yep, Melti, you got it! You have to go there as Squall, and it plays there. Of course, it serves no purpose and is much forgotten anyway.
I guess since you got all six it’s only fair to give you the next question.
Noobinabox
05-22-2008, 01:44 AM
Whew, that was relatively painless.
Meltigemini
05-24-2008, 12:31 AM
Alright…
I can’t really think of anything too challenging at the moment, so this is probably really easy:
Name all magic spells which can only be drawn from one enemy in the game, and the enemy they are drawn from. Also, name all enemies which can use those particular spells in battle.
Noobinabox
05-24-2008, 02:01 AM
Alright, I’ll take this one.
Apocalypse can be drawn from the lower portion of Ultimecia’s final form.
Apocalypse can only be used by Ultimecia’s final form.
Agent0042
05-24-2008, 02:07 AM
I’m going to go with Aura — I seem to recall that it can only be drawn from Seifer, and I don’t believe there’s any enemy that can use it.
Noobinabox
05-24-2008, 04:05 AM
A prison guard at the desert prison uses it when Squall and friends are trying to escape.
I’m not sure if I misread the trivia, but I believe that its a really optional question. As in, there are many correct answers?
Meltigemini
05-24-2008, 11:04 PM
Sorry if it wasn’t clear, I did mean for it all to be answered, as I thought the first part was pretty easy. Apocalypse and Aura are both correct, and yes, there is a prison guard that uses Aura. Those are the only two magics, but there is still another enemy that can use one of those which hasn’t been said (includes bosses and non-bosses here).
Noobinabox
05-25-2008, 12:46 AM
Then, I’m thinking Aura is used by another enemy because Apocalypse doesn’t really appear until the end of the game. Wonder which enemy that is…
Agent0042
05-25-2008, 01:51 AM
Grendel?
UnlimitedBladeWorks
05-25-2008, 04:28 AM
What about Ultima for Ultima Weapon?
Noobinabox
05-25-2008, 05:59 AM
I think there are a few enemies that will use Ultima as a final desperation move. Anyway, we’re searching for only 1 more monster/boss that uses Aura or Apocalypse (probably Aura).
Raijin is the other enemy that uses Aura, I’ll add that much for now.
EDIT: Or is that all that’s left? Hah.
Meltigemini
05-26-2008, 12:14 PM
Yep, Raijin was the last one. Ultima can be drawn from both Ultima and Omega Weapon, so that didn’t count as an answer.
Seems like a few people chipped in here but it looks like Noobinabox had the most right answers so.. away you go :p
Noobinabox
05-26-2008, 02:00 PM
Zantetsuken, Rapture, and Degenerator (collectively) will fail against boss-class foes and 9 other enemies in the game.
What are the 9 other enemies that Zantetsuken, Rapture, and Degenerator will fail against?
They actually work on the Propagators…
Anyway, I’m assuming most are undead enemies? In that case, Vysage and Forbidden, for one… and Righty and Lefty, do you count those seperately?
Meltigemini
05-26-2008, 09:43 PM
I know that Degenerator doesn’t work against Grats, for some reason. :p
Noobinabox
05-26-2008, 10:14 PM
Yes, anything that can be separately scanned counts as a different enemy.
Vysage, Lefty, Righty, and Grats are all correct.
Swift
05-26-2008, 10:19 PM
Gerogero?
Noobinabox
05-26-2008, 10:23 PM
There are definitely more than 9 bosses in the game that are immune to Rapture, Zantetsuken, and Degenerator…
Also, let me clarify what a Boss-class foe is:
A foe for which the screen does a funny "in-and-out" animation as opposed to the normal "washed-out" entrance.
Wait, so they work on Forbidden? Are you sure? I thought Forbidden is undead.
Noobinabox
05-26-2008, 10:51 PM
I’m pretty sure that rapture will work on forbidden, let me check my guide.
BradyGames guide says that Forbidden has an 80% chance to be "blown away"
Oh, of course… it doesn’t work on Tonberries!
Tonberry King is boss class though, correct? If not, I guess that’s one…
EDIT: What about the Slappers?
Noobinabox
05-26-2008, 10:59 PM
Ok, granted, Tonberry King is a boss-class foe. Bad clarification on my part.
Slappers isn’t one of them. Tonberrys is another correct one.
Noobinabox
05-27-2008, 04:44 AM
Correct! Cactuars is one of them. Only 3 left.
Blood Souls perhaps…? They are undead, after all. Though I feel like I might have Raptured them once, not sure.
Meltigemini
05-27-2008, 11:57 PM
I don’t think undeads are specifically immune to Rapture, just The End.
I seem to remember Rapture doesn’t work on Adamantoises now, for some reason, am I imagining that? Also, this one is a complete guess, but does Rapture not work on a Fastitocalon (or Fastitocalon-F) that is still under the sand?
Noobinabox
05-28-2008, 12:21 AM
Heh, nope. I’ll throw out a hint:
Two of the remaining "enemies" are enemies that any skill-level player can defeat. These enemies do not attack you. These two enemies are also related…very closely. They are not a main part of the storyline (i.e. found in a sidequest).
The third enemy becomes an ally (of sorts) after a point in the game (meaning that the enemy was once a foe, but later is not).
Meltigemini
05-28-2008, 12:34 AM
Of course, PuPu and the UFO. :p
I can’t think for the last one though. :/
Damn, I was gonna say PuPu and the UFO. Anyway for the last one, I don’t know if this is considered boss class but how about Rinoa, when you’re fighting Adel? She’s a target so she’s an "enemy", and catch this. "The End" only kills Adel and not her!
Noobinabox
05-28-2008, 01:06 AM
PuPu and UFO are correct. 1 more.
I think I have it.
The "Sorceresses" in the Time Compressed world? They aren’t really bosses (except for the last big one)…

Nope, I’m pretty sure that they are categorized as Boss-class in Brady Games. And, it doesn’t fit in with my hint.
EDIT: I just saw your Rinoa post, and it’s not correct either. I’m pretty sure she is also classified as "boss-class." Also, the "foe-to-friend" transition isn’t a "friend-to-foe-and-back-to-friend" transition.
As an additional hint, this enemy appears in a random encounter at some point in the game.

I was actually looking in the Brady Games guide myself which I have, and it has the Sorceresses not as bosses… hmm, alright then. But it’s not Tonberry King you say?
In that case it’s not any of the GFs because that’s the only one that you randomly encounter rather than have a fixed encounter like with Cactuar, and… as for the fake ones, let’s see, you don’t encounter MiniMog, you don’t encounter any kind of Chocobo in battle in FF8, and you don’t see Moombas battle. None of the people in this game ever pull a Yuffie, either. Odin is a set boss, and you don’t fight Gilgamesh. Oh, and you never fight Phoenix either.
Angelo is an ally too, but he doesn’t fight for the other team ever either.
So I take it this thing you’re looking for doesn’t appear on a card?
Noobinabox
05-29-2008, 01:32 PM
Yea, it isn’t a card.
Eh… is it one of the G-Soldiers? Or a kind of Soldier?
Also, they never really appear as targets (the UFO doesn’t either though) but you see them on the battle field as if they are… the faculty members?

I can only narrow it down so much. I’ll tell you that this enemy is one that will fight and damage you (vice versa)
Dude, I just skimmed the whole Bestiary in the BradyGames guide, and everything that’s not a card either has been guessed or is part of a boss fight, like the NORG pods or the Dromas. Other than that it’s just the Sorceresses, Adel, the soldiers… none of them become allies anyway.
I’d guess the Raldo, but the guide says it can be blown away.
Maybe GIM52A? It’s not a card (GIM47N is) and unlike 47N it has a Blue Magic so maybe that’s what you mean by ally… bah. It could probably also be blown away.
Either you missed something, or the guide missed something, or the guide lied about whether something works. But the guide even lists the UFO which you can’t even attack!

Zantetsuken, Rapture, and Degenerator (collectively) will fail against boss-class foes and 9 other enemies in the game.
What are the 9 other enemies that Zantetsuken, Rapture, and Degenerator will fail against?
The third enemy becomes an ally (of sorts) after a point in the game (meaning that the enemy was once a foe, but later is not).
As an additional hint, this enemy appears in a random encounter at some point in the game.
Yea, it isn’t a card.
This always helps me (seeing all the hints at the same time).
But I still can’t think of anything…

All right, I Googled the answer and apparently it’s "E-Soldier (cyborg)." I hope nobody will mind too much me calling bull, because there is no enemy in the game actually called "E-Soldier" that I know of. The only Interne references I can find it to it are this question (which was pulled verbatim from an FAQ.) I think everybody got everything that can really be come up with, and Zak even said "or kind of soldier," which seems to me to be good enough. I don’t see how anybody else would have really come up with anything further, especially after the answer about it being "some sort of soldier" being shot down. I think it’s time we moved on.
(Oh, and I really don’t get the whole "enemy turned ally" thing either, although I suppose maybe it’s meant to refer to the Estharians becoming your allies.)

Esthar’s soldiers are Laguna’s enemies when Laguna works as a soldier for Galbadia (seen especially in dream sequence 2). They later work under Laguna after he overthrows Adel…making them his allies.
And, I never officially "shot down" Zak’s guess.
Esthar soldier (cyborg) is an opponent in Brady Game’s Bestiary guide.
I’d like to see if Zak could have the next trivia because he seems to have put the most sweat into finding this one. Agent?
Edit: All within one minute…haha.
Agent0042
05-30-2008, 02:03 AM
I don’t have any problem with it if nobody else does.
And I know that you didn’t "shoot it down," but you didn’t specifically indicate that there was anything right about either, which would I figured would tend to direct people away from the idea that it was a soldier.
The guide says the Esthar cyborg soldiers can be killed with Rapture, maybe that’s a mistake but still… how are they "allies" later?
Okay, let’s aim for a challenge here… the only other ones I can think of are a couple of OST questions I have in mind, but since I did two already I’ll save them for another time. So this will probably be easy.
Okay, um… as far as "doing everything possible" goes, what’s the most about of Blue Magic Quistis can have before going to the fire cavern? Which ones are they… or which ones aren’t they? (list whichever is less).
EDIT: Added to the question, tell HOW you go about getting them whether they’re from a mug, a drop, or a card, or something else… and WHICH monster/card.

Agent0042
05-30-2008, 03:14 AM
Right, now to see if I can find a list that has them all without saying where to find them. ๐ Actually, I suppose I could just check the game itself…
Agent0042
05-30-2008, 03:28 AM
All right, back again. I guess I’ll start with the ones I’m pretty sure of:
+Ultra Waves
+Homing Laser
+Aqua Breath
+Fire Breath
-Ray Bomb
-Shockwave Pulsar
-Mighty Guard
-Degenerator
Those are the ones I’m pretty sure of (though not entirely certain) are and aren’t right. I’ll add Electrocute and Acid to the list of ones that can be learned. I’ll surrender if somebody else can do better within 24 hours. How’s that?
I’m not sure which you meant are and which you meant aren’t, but all I know is that some are incorrect because as a matter of fact in both the top and bottom four you said there’s at least one that is and one that isn’t.
EDIT: I’m an idiot, didn’t notice the plus and minuses.
So… yeah, at least one incorrect for each.
Know what, to be fair, say how you think you can get them. That would make things a lot more fair, rather than just randomly guessing.
Agent0042
05-30-2008, 05:47 AM
Oh, well I’m certainly not just randomly guessing. I know at least one or two can be obtained through normal item drops or stealing — Ultra Waves I know for sure by item drop. Some of the other more obscure ones I know are obtainable to a smart card collector. Otherwise there would be no way you could get them that early.
Good reckon… well, at least one of them isn’t.
Hmm, let me reword the question and edit the original post with it: I’ll ask this: Which cards and which drops? That way I can get give credit more easily, and like if someone claims something is from a card and is actually from a drop or from something else, then no credit, ’tis the fairest way. Because… it’s just that I don’t want to say quite yet WHICH is/are incorrect. That’d be too cheap. Also, this way I’d be able to say more fairly which is incorrect, cause if you said, say "You can get Ultra Waves from a Grat card" I’d deem it incorrect, but that wouldn’t mean it’s not one of them.
So, reworded the question.
DreinIX
05-30-2008, 03:38 PM
OK, you said before going to the Fire Cavern. Let???s see.
Ultra Waves from a Spider Web. Caterchipillar drops it and you can refine it from it???s card.
Degenerator from Black Hole. Refine Gesper???s card.
Bad Breath from Malboro Tentacle. Refine Malboro???s card x4.
Fire Breath from Inferno Fang. Refine Ruby Dragon???s card x10.
Acid from Mystery Fluid. Refine Gayla???s card.
Electrocute from Coral Fragment. From Creeps??? card I think.
LV?Death from Curse Spike. Refines from Tri-Face???s card.
Gatling Gun from Running Fire. It???s SAMO-something. It???s from a robot???s card anyway.
Aqua Breath from Water Crystal. Refine from Fastitocalon???s and Fastitocalon-F card.
Mighty Guard from Barrier. Refine Behemoth???s card x10.
I???m pretty sure these are all you can learn at that point.
Yep, that’s all 11 of them! Nice… guess I’ll give you the next question!

I guess it’s my turn now..
What element is Blobra weak against, and how much more damage the element does?
There are 3 correct answers.
DreinIX
05-30-2008, 10:58 PM
Yeah that was kind of a trap question.
It’s weak against Fire, Blizzard and Thunder though not at the same time. I think it’s random in which element it will be weak against each time. As for the other part for the question I’m not sure how to define it. I believe that if your physical attacks do close to 50-60 damage the attack from one of the (right) element will do damage close to 300-400.
Also is it certain that the elements are only three? I thought that Blobra was weak against any element at random.
Meltigemini
05-30-2008, 11:54 PM
At low levels it will be one of Fire, Ice or Lightning, but at higher levels yes they can be weak against any element.
Swift
05-31-2008, 12:48 AM
I’m looking for the damage increase in multipliers, in example Diablos, he’ll take 1.5x of wind damage, so a 50% increase.
Also, the level range would be nice.
Melti has part of the whole question right, they can indeed be randomly weak to any element at higher levels.
Agent0042
06-04-2008, 03:58 AM
Right — it’s been four days. I’d say we just declare Melti partly right and keep things going, except that Melti hasn’t been on the Shrine since he posted that answer.
So… in the interest of keeping things moving, a new question. Maybe this one will be a bit easier, we’ll have to see:
At the beginning of the game, if you check the tutorial/info console, the Library Committee reports that what two books are overdue (I’m looking for the exact names), and who has them checked out?
Swift, since we’re apparently stumped on yours, you can tell us the answer.
Raijin checked them both out, but the names escape me… I remember they had to do with the same thing. Was one "The Sorceress’ Knight"? or something
Meltigemini
06-04-2008, 11:22 PM
Raijin had "Goodbye Pupurun" too.
I know it’s over now, but I remember for the last question it’s something like:
Lv 1-19: Weak against one of Fire, Ice or Lightning
Lv 20-29: Weak against one of Fire, Ice, Lightning, Wind or Earth
Lv 30+: Weak against anyone element
Exception: MD Level – always weak against Fire there.
I don’t know the multiplier but it’s something like 5x the amount of an element it’s not weak against… or about 2x the normal damage to any other enemy. Though they’re not exactly comparable anyway…
Agent0042
06-05-2008, 04:12 AM
Actually, they didn’t both have to do with the same thing. "Goodbye Pupurun" is correct. "The Sorceress Knight" wasn’t overdue — it was one of four on reserve (to unspecified patrons) and ready to check out.
Melti has one answer — still looking for the other book. I’ll give it a day or so.
Swift
06-05-2008, 05:52 PM
The damage multiplier is 7x.
”Insect Guidebook (Color Edition)”
Had to actually load a very early save to get that piece of info ๐
Agent0042
06-05-2008, 10:24 PM
I’m giving it to Melti because I really didn’t mean for anybody to look it up — I can see where looking stuff up could almost be considered reasonable on certain questions, where it would take a fair bit of digging to find anything anyway. But this was relatively easy to look up — even if you didn’t have an early save — you coulda just started a new game.
So it’s Melti’s if he wants it.

Oh man, thinking of questions is so troublesome. Oh, wait I got one (and hope nobody asked). How many rare cards are there in the world (the ff8 world of course)? Since it is also asked in a Seed test I want to justify your answer.
DreinIX
06-07-2008, 08:32 PM
Yes it’s one. You got the first part right. But I want to tell me how come it’s only one (mainly because I’m sure many players don’t know that small detail and also because I wanted to make the question a little more spicy – just a little).
I remember thinking it was weird that that was the answer after trying every combination when answering "no" to that question, and I actually still don’t get it. Good to hear that someone knows what they mean, cause I’m interested, but for now I’ll hazard a guess.
I assumed they mean one of each rare card, like every lv 8, 9, and 10 card is one of a kind in it’s own. Right?
DreinIX
06-07-2008, 09:19 PM
I assumed they mean one of each rare card, like every lv 8, 9, and 10 card is one of a kind in it’s own. Right?
I thought so too at first but it’s actually something different.
Oh, and guys if you can, try to find it up to Sunday night cause I’ll probably won’t be able to check in until Thursday.
Just tell me this: Is it a specific card they refer to, or is it a general type of card they call rare?
Well… hmm, I have a guess. The PuPu card is the only card below level 8 that’s one of a kind, could that be it?
It’s also the only one unavailable in Disc 4 from the queen or CC group.
DreinIX
06-08-2008, 12:13 AM
Yes it refers to a specific card and yes that card is the PuPu card. And you’re pretty close with the justification. But I just don’t want to give it away yet cause maybe others know exactly what makes that card rare.
Well, here’s a hint. It has to do with the Queen of cards and the CC group.
Drein, did you read my whole post? Maybe you posted at the same time as I edited.
I said you can’t get it from either in Disc 4.
DreinIX
06-08-2008, 01:07 AM
Of course I read it ๐ Don’t get confused. What makes PuPu the only rare card has something to do with the Queen of Cards and the CC group (and other things as well) but not because of it’s unavailability. There’s something more specific I want to see written.
Hmm… if you lose it to them you can’t get it back?
DreinIX
06-08-2008, 01:27 AM
Probably you can’t get it back but it’s not that.
Agent0042
06-08-2008, 03:06 AM
It’s the only rare card not reobtainable from one of the two sources you mentioned? Because I believe if you card mod one any other rare card, then you get it back from one of those sources, but with the Pupu card, nothing doing.

It’s what I’ve heard, although I haven’t actually tried it myself. I’m just taking a very good guess as to the possibility that it’s right based on what I recall seeing mentioned around these boards before. (I recently started a new FFVIII playthrough and I think I will try it once I get towards the end.)
I guess we’ll find out if it’s right or not soon enough.
DreinIX
06-08-2008, 11:29 AM
Yes, that’s it. If you complete the Queen of cards sidequest on disc 3 and on disc 4 you find the Ragnarok and all the CC members are on board you can refine the GF and character cards and challenge the members to get them again. But I believe that the second time you get them is also the last time you will but I haven’t really checked it now that I think about. Anyway that’s why the PuPu card is the only rare card since you can get all the other cards at least twice. OK, next question goes to Agent0042 (although I could give it to Zak too since he tried so much). ๐
Hmm, I’ll let Agent have it since I’ve been doing a lot.

It’s not "Have you seen the light" is it?
DreinIX
06-08-2008, 10:14 PM
LOL. I just passed that part five hours ago. But I don’t remember the exact words. It was something like that. Is it really necessary to entomb those that died after such a long and tiring journey in life? (Is that valid?)
You know people will be looking it up ;).
As for me, I have no clue but I think it does lie around whant DreinIX said.
Agent0042
06-08-2008, 10:49 PM
No, it’s not "Have you seen the light" — I believe you’re thinking along of the longs of the whole perceiving the resonance thing that was said when you have to solve the light puzzle to reach the battle with the Ruby Dragons and Bahamut.
It’s something rather more thoughtful than that.
You know people will be looking it up. ๐
Well, bully for them then, if they look it up and then answer. Cheaters! ๐
I’ll give two days max and then if somebody wants to look it up, they can. But surely there’s somebody here who knows this?

TeknoBlade
06-10-2008, 03:16 AM
The answer should be 65,535 since it’s the maximum value in hexadecimal form. It makes more sense to think they allowed it to max itself instead of having to write a code that stops it at 60,000. But I don’t know since I don’t remember getting nearly that much.

Excellent. Well, I think I’ll have one more shot at this. I remember the basics of this sequence pretty well, so it’s just matter of narrowing it down then. So many different choices though, even though there’s plenty of ones I know it definitely isn’t. Let’s see — for some reason I’m also thinking "Waltz for the Moon" and maybe "Timber Owls."
"Waltz For the Moon" is right. One more!

Sweetness. Well, seeing as nobody else is guessing, how about "Force Your Way" – the boss battle theme. I’d been avoiding this one since for some reason I didn’t think it was right. But I keep thinking there’s at least one more "intense" one and neither of the other choices I made in that general area was right.
Nope, not that one… good guess.
But I’ll hint by saying that it’s indeed an upbeat and intense one.
Agent0042
06-12-2008, 08:37 PM

All right, let’s keep this moving. Let’s see, a new question…
Oh, what the heck? How about this?

Hmm… yes, correct. Which is interesting because it actually wasn’t the answer I was looking for. The script I’ve been using, which seems to be accurate in pretty much all other aspects, makes reference to a "shellsuit." ROTFL. I guess I don’t really know where that comes from, since a Google search ends up turning up only a scant few references to it.
All right, your go, if you want it. I just ask no more soundtrack questions for a while, please.
I ran out of ideas for non-sountrack questions… But anyway… there’s a version of the game where the monkey says something else? That’s pretty weird.. anyway, I guess I’ll do four more before another OST question.
Um.. okay, this is probably be really easy, but what’s an item in this game that’s in two locations at once, rather than being two different ones? i.e., you pick it up at one location, it disappears at the other? Kinda like the Zodiac Spear chests in XII which are all like one chest and what you get depends where you open it.
Meltigemini
06-21-2008, 01:01 PM
There’s a Timber Maniacs magazine at the Balamb hotel and another one at the station, and if you get one the other disappears. Though I don’t think they are exactly the same, I’m sure that I’ve noticed differences on Sir Laguna’s Page depending on whcih one you get… and I don’t know if that affects the story of the first Laguna sequence either, whether he falls asleep or not, or if that’s just related whether you pick up either magazine or not. Anyway I’m getting off the point a bit here, I think that magazine is what you’re after. :p
Yep, it is!
Really there are differences? As far as I know they’re both at the hotel in the picture… I could be wrong though, what differences did you see?
If there really is a difference then I suppose it functions exactly like the Zodiac Spear. Except for the fact that no one really cares. ๐
Um, Melti… are you gonna do one? Or should I think of one.
Agent0042
06-24-2008, 12:42 AM
Melti hasn’t been on the Shrine since he posted that. Just saying. I suppose you or somebody else could do one if they wanted, seeing as he’s just not around.
Noobinabox
06-24-2008, 05:02 AM
I’ll go…this one’s a quickie.
How many lights are visible from the screen/window in the Shumi Village elevator as Squall and friends ascend/descend into the village? (Do not count the bright white light that fills the entire screen at the surface).
Swift
06-27-2008, 12:49 PM
I think I once counted them all out of boredom… My guess is 18.
Noobinabox
06-27-2008, 03:48 PM
Lol, everyone counts those lights…what else is there to do in the elevator? But, it’s not 18…Close though.
Swift
06-27-2008, 06:57 PM
20!
Noobinabox
06-29-2008, 03:21 AM
I counted 21 (the last one you stop on), but whatever, close enough…this was too mundane of a question to really nitpick over.
Swift has the floor.
Swift
06-29-2008, 02:07 PM
How many times will Squall say ”whatever” during the game?
”whatever…” and all varieties do count.
Noobinabox
06-29-2008, 03:58 PM
Oh damn…
Swift
06-29-2008, 04:22 PM
It’s not that great number after all. It’s closer to 1 than it is to 50.
Agent0042
07-01-2008, 05:56 AM
If it’s "closer to one than it is to 50," then I’ll go with 20. Fair question, though — are you only after instances where actually says it out loud or does thinking it count too?
Anyone can throw out any number… I’ll say 18.
Swift
07-01-2008, 09:53 PM
I counted all the times the word ”whatever” was being shown from Squall.
ALL ”whatever” words got counted ๐
24 more hours before I reveal the answer.
Hint: FAQs.

Same here, snaker, you’re driving me nuts.
Let’s see, new question… What is the "special something" that the Shumi feel that Laguna has (and thus the reason they chose to build a statue of him)?
DreinIX
07-03-2008, 11:41 AM
I believe that special something was not mentioned because the Shumi couldn’t figure out what it was and so they decided to build the statue and maybe they would figure it out then.
Swift
07-03-2008, 12:10 PM
Yeah, like in the making of the statue, they’d remember it.
Agent0042
07-03-2008, 10:05 PM
No, sorry, not what I’m after. Yes, the Elder did say they don’t know exactly what it is, but right before that, he did say something specifically that he felt the "special something" was. Sounds like doublespeak, but there it is. So that’s what I’m looking for. There definitely was something that was mentioned.
snaker1
07-03-2008, 11:57 PM
…..whatever
Noobinabox
07-04-2008, 12:34 AM
The "special something" that Laguna has is the "power to attract people," – or more eloquently put – charisma.
Might I add, charisma is something Snaker lacks…immensely.
Agent0042
07-04-2008, 12:43 AM
Yep, that’s correct! Your go, if you want it.

I thought Omega Weapon absorbs all elements.

Okay, this should be fun. How many Curse Spikes do you need to make 99 Holy Wars?
DreinIX
07-05-2008, 09:54 PM
Fuck. I think I know the answer. Give me a second.
DreinIX
07-05-2008, 10:05 PM
100 Curse Spikes give 1 Dark Matter
1 Dark Matter can give 1 Shaman Stone
100 Shaman Stones give 1 Hero-trial (or was it just 10 – fuck)
10 Hero-trials give 1 Hero
10 Hero give 1 Holy War-trial
10 Holy War-trial give 1 Holy War
Assuming I didn’t make any mistakes the number of Curse Spikes is 990.000.000
Olde
07-05-2008, 10:14 PM
sorry, I can’t give it to you just yet. There’s one error you made.
DreinIX
07-05-2008, 10:29 PM
The Shaman Stones were 10?
99.000.000 then?
Olde
07-06-2008, 12:07 AM
yeah, now it’s right. 99 million Curse Spikes are necessary for 99 Holy Wars. Your go.
DreinIX
07-06-2008, 12:16 AM

Noobinabox

Lol at Snaker1, he just posted in a 4-year-old Trivia.
Anyway…
What time(s) in the game can you run around in Balamb Garden with only Squall in your party?
Please be as specific as possible.
Swift
07-06-2008, 10:24 PM
Before you complete Fire Cavern, when you’re supposed to go to meet Quistis at training centre, and any time when you decide not to have any party members?
oh, and when the garden is being harrassed by G-Garden.
Noobinabox
07-07-2008, 04:20 AM
Well, I thought you can’t "decide" to not have party members. Like, if you have three slots, you have to fill them up, even if the players are KO’d.
Other than that, there’s one time you haven’t mentioned. I’ll tell you right now that it is not part of the main storyline…meaning that you could miss it if you tried.
Also, the moment when Squall goes to the FH Concert with Rinoa doesn’t count.
Agent0042
07-07-2008, 05:04 AM
Well, I thought you can’t "decide" to not have party members. Like, if you have three slots, you have to fill them up, even if the players are KO’d.
Yeah, Balamb Garden, basically any time you’re there after a certain point and you go visit Squall’s room, instead of choosing to rest, you choose instead the "Just leave me alone" option. Necessary in order to get Quistis to show up in order to battle her as the CC group King.
Swift
07-07-2008, 09:24 PM
So, what’s the correct answer…?
Noobinabox
07-08-2008, 01:11 AM
Agent0042 gets it. It’s during Disc 2, once CC Quest is available.
I was really looking for the "Leave me alone" answer. It was the trickiest.
Swift
07-08-2008, 02:41 AM
Isn’t CC quest doable during disc 1? IIRC I’ve done at least up to the one before Xu
Isn’t CC quest doable during disc 1? IIRC I’ve done at least up to the one before Xu
No it isn’t.
Agent0042
07-08-2008, 03:50 AM
I would say this goes to Swift — he pretty much got all the essentials of the answer — I just filled in that last part.
And, agreed, CC just isn’t doable until Disc 2 — it’s simply not made available until then, even if you fill the 20 games prerequisite.
Actually disc 3 is when it first becomes available.
Agent0042
07-08-2008, 04:22 AM
Oh no, now that’s definitely not true. CC quest becomes available as soon as Garden becomes mobile (you can begin it any time after Squall first receives the summon from NORG.)
(And yes, I just checked I know there are several guides out there that say "Disc 3." These guides lie. I’m on Disc 2 right now and I have completed it. This (http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/file/197343/10404) guide from GameFAQs has it right.)
Noobinabox
07-08-2008, 12:24 PM
I just completed it too, BradyGames lies.
Agent0042
07-11-2008, 11:00 PM
I guess Swift isn’t around, so I’m going to take the question, then.
Name me every time that the game presents you with a choice to either try a task over again or give up and choosing the second (give up) option results in automatic game over. (As far as I know, there are four and those are specifically the ones that I’m looking for. Anymore than that is a bonus, I guess.)
Meltigemini

Which boss enemies can be fought later in the game as random encounters, and where? (I define any boss battle here as one where Force Your Way plays)
Noobinabox
07-12-2008, 03:25 PM
Well, the GIM546 (wrong numbers) are fought at the Desert Prison in order to escape. They’re later fought at Balamb Garden in random encounters.
The G-Soldiers that you fight at Balamb with Raijin are also fought in Balamb Garden in random enc.
Uh, those are the only ones I’m thinking of now.
Meltigemini
07-13-2008, 02:52 PM
Yep, those are all right, though there’s a few more. Sticking with the Galbadian theme, there is one more there, and there are also three monsters I am thinking of.
Swift
07-13-2008, 03:02 PM
Sorry for not being around, but I could drop in a question as an addition to the current one.
How much HP do the anacondaurs have in a no level game during Dollet mission?
(and of course afterwards, too) (rough number wanted, rounded uo/down to 50’s)
Isley Of The North
07-16-2008, 07:15 AM

Your forgetting the guys u fight in the trainning place & the oil things.
Noobinabox
07-17-2008, 03:30 AM
Raldos and Granaldos?
And Oilboylies.
Oh wait, isn’t the T-Rexaur a boss when you fight at Balamb?
Agent0042
07-17-2008, 04:18 AM
No, the T-Rexaur only ever appears in random battles. It’s just made a point of because it’s such a tough monster. If you encounter it in the forest outside Balamb Garden, Quistis warns that sometimes it’s better to run. And when you go on the late-night Training Center thing, Quistis will ask if Squall’s ever fought it before and mention that junction to status attack is helpful.
Noobinabox
07-17-2008, 05:02 AM
But, when you’re rescuing the kids (a bit before the Garden becomes mobile) the Garden Faculty set a T-Rexaur on you.
Agent0042
07-17-2008, 05:04 AM
Oh yes, I forgot about that encounter, but I don’t believe "Force Your Way" plays during those battles, and so they’re not really counted as bosses. I mean, after all, they set a lot of other stuff on you, too, a lot of it being crap like Grats and Bite Bugs.
T-Rexaur is not a general boss monster seeing as it’s encounterable in the Training Center and the Island closest to hell. But yeah, it’s more of a CHASE battle, it doesn’t play the normal battle theme either (I think it was The Mission or Only a Plank)
Agent0042
07-17-2008, 08:43 PM
I’m sorry, but I’m afraid not. "The Mission" does play while you’re running about, but the normal battle theme plays during that sequence either anytime you encounter a random battle, or when one of the Garden Faculty set a monster on you, including the T-Rexaur. I checked.
Noobinabox
07-18-2008, 12:42 PM
How about Vysage Lefty and Righty?
I know they turn into Gargantua eventually, but before they make that transformation, are they counted?
FF1WithAllThieves
07-18-2008, 05:17 PM
No, they’re more of a random encounter that sneakily turns into a boss.
I know you can fight Raldos in the Castle…
Iguions, maybe?
Shadow mage
07-19-2008, 09:57 AM
I dont think u can encounter Iguions again. They are Bosses because you draw Carbuncle from them.
Meltigemini
07-19-2008, 11:43 AM
Yep, Granaldo and Raldo can be found in Ultimecia’s Castle, and Oilboyles are in the Deep Sea Research Center. I wasn’t counting the Balamb Garden battles, I was careful to word the question as such. Iguions aren’t seen again after the boss fight with them.
This question’s been going long enough I think. The other Galbadian one was Elite Soldier, which appears with those GIM52As in the prison.

Gerogero – darkness, silence, poison, curse
Iguion – gradual petrify
Base leader / soldiers – confuse
Oilboyle – darkness
NORG – silence
Cerberus – silence
Edea – curse
Abadon – darkness, confuse
Then I’m sure there’s some statuses from bosses in Ultimecia’s castle too but I don’t remember anything from there…

I don’t see how anyone could do that while that sequence was happening, it’s so damn boring that they’d have to be totally enraptured in order for the effects to be canceled out. I hated that limit special.

Not quite 90 seconds, that’d make us bore to death, literally.

You’re right– now that I really think about it, 90 second is way too long. It just seems like 90. Still, I think it’s rather more than 20, though. I’ll put in for 45.

He gets his hoverboard confiscated. Just before Cid gives you the lamp containing Diablos. I’m not sure if that’s what Meltigemini is referring to though. I don’t know why, but i have a feeling its something to do with him getting into an argument with seifer. It is because he is a "chicken-wuss" ?
I’m sure its something that isn’t actually an arrestable offense. Its just the Disciplinary Committee abusing their power?
jewess crabcake
09-04-2008, 12:16 AM

Nope. It isn’t exactly a title that you would instantly relate to Laguna.
Ok I know its also a song name but, Is it Roses and Wine?

What is the earliest disk in which Squall’s ‘Lionheart’ gunblade is obtainable?

Disk 1. I forget how to get pulse ammo, but everything else I know how to find.
FF1WithAllThieves
10-02-2008, 01:19 AM
The hard way. You have to get something like 20 Elnoyle cards just to get 2 Energy crystals, and then you mod those into Pulse Ammo.
Noobinabox
10-02-2008, 03:50 AM
Oh yea, I’m running a no-level up game, and I forgot to utilize Seifer for leveling up Ifrit (for Ammo-RF).
Do I get another chance to level up Ifrit and Siren when I have control of Edea later on? (it’s not a trivia, just wondering).
Agent0042
10-02-2008, 04:25 AM
I guess so, if you’re not playing a "pure" no-level up game. The No Level Up Walkthrough at GameFAQs indicates:
"5. You CANNOT gain proper Ammo for Irvine (who will just happen to be
your highest level character), and he will just have to stick with Fast
Ammo or Demolition Ammo (some people say that Fast Ammo is his best
Ammo. Unfortunately, you run out of Fast Ammo faster than anything
else…)."
So I guess under the criteria used by it, you’re not allowed to level up your GF, nor Seifer or Edea. But if you’re not following those rules, I don’t see why not.
7alentine
10-02-2008, 04:56 AM
Yes, Jeff, Disk 1 is correct.

Moving on, what is the one monster you can stock Pain from in the Garden?
7alentine
10-02-2008, 05:06 AM
Grenaldo, and you first encounter it alongside 3 Raldo’s when you are searching for Ellone in the Training Area.
jewess crabcake

http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/file/197343/21241
hit CTRL+F and type in ‘#0036 – GRANALDO’ then look under ‘High level Draw List’.
In fact, the only enemies that Pain can be drawn from are: Granaldo, Ochu, Elnoyle and Tri-Face.
And of those, only Granaldo is found in the Garden.
jewess crabcake
10-02-2008, 05:42 AM
Actually at that point in the game, you shouldn’t really be that high leveled… if it’s all the same I’d like to keep it going. I’ll specify: Which monster can you stock both Pain and Flare from at an early point in the game (Disk 2) In the Garden.
7alentine
10-02-2008, 05:47 AM
Dude, none.
There is no enemy in the entire game that actually stocks those two magics simultaneously except Tri-Face and I think Ultima Weapon!
Besides, I was right the first time.
Noobinabox
10-02-2008, 05:53 AM
Tri-Face are found on the MD level when you’re going to activate the Garden’s flying mechanism.
7alentine
10-02-2008, 06:01 AM
I got pwned…
I apologise, but I was right about Granaldo so I think I should be able to claim Victory. =]
And Victory I shall claim!
NEXT QUESTION!
What is the ONLY attack in the game that can break the 9999 damage limit?
jewess crabcake
10-02-2008, 06:06 AM
lol, since you did say Granaldo, and showed knowledge of Tri-face I’ll give it to 7alentine.
Noobinabox
10-02-2008, 06:23 AM
lol, he already took it.
The new question isn’t worded too well.
There are many (!!) attacks that break the 9999 damage limit.
Let’s look at GF attacks:
Eden’s Eternal Breath (Max 60000)
Cactuar GF’s 10,000 Needles (Max 10,000)
Other Attacks
Boko’s ChocoBuckle (Requires Pocketstation)
Kamikaze command (Character’s Max HP x 5)
Quistis’ Shockwave Pulsar

10-05-2008, 07:23 AM
It’s a two part question!
What do the three red characters seen in Odin’s Zantetsuken attack translate into?
And, when Seifer defeats Odin, a new set of characters appear.
What is the translation of the new set?
7alentine
10-05-2008, 11:35 AM
Odin’s kanji appear and translate into Sever
After defeating Odin, Seifer’s kanji appear and translate into Reverse.
Noobinabox
10-06-2008, 12:49 AM
The website I found regarding this matter said that his Kanji is "Zantetsuken" which literally translates into "iron cutting sword"
and later turns into "Zantetsuken Reverse"
Close enough though. Translations get pretty ambiguous. Your turn.
7alentine
10-07-2008, 05:23 AM
Yeah I read up on mine and it seems pretty reliable cause when Sever is flipped and ‘E’ is added, it becomes Reverse, hence the extra kanji after Seifer’s attack.
But I’ll claim victory either way.
What personal item does Squall give Zell during Galbadia’s attack and why?
Sorry, it’s lame I know but I can’t think of any others.
paarish
10-07-2008, 04:40 PM
He gives him Griever and because Rinoa wanted it to make a copy or summin like that…
jewess crabcake
10-07-2008, 09:05 PM
actually he gives him his huge ring.
7alentine
10-07-2008, 11:11 PM
I’m going to give it to paarish because although he wasn’t spot on, he did describe why as well as vaguely what.
jewess crabcake
10-07-2008, 11:21 PM
Umm griever and his ring are 2 different things. Griever is the attachment to his gunblade, his ring has an etching of Griever’s face. Also he gives it to Zell because Rinoa wanted "one just like it" not to make a copy. Zell was simply playing match maker.
Noobinabox
10-08-2008, 12:06 AM
Griever is the default name for the ring.
Yeah I read up on mine and it seems pretty reliable cause when Sever is flipped and ‘E’ is added, it becomes Reverse, hence the extra kanji after Seifer’s attack.
I’m pretty sure the translations between those Japanese characters and English letters have no direct correlation.
Anyway, here’s my source.
斬鉄剣 (Zantetsuken):
* 斬 (zan) means "cutting" or "beheading"
* 鉄 (tetsu) means "iron"
* 剣 (ken) means "sword"
斬鉄剣 返し (Zantetsuken Kaeshi) does mean "Reverse Zantetsuken" or "Counter Zantetsuken," I think.
jewess crabcake
10-08-2008, 12:22 AM
No, the name of the lion on both figures is griever.
7alentine
10-08-2008, 12:50 AM
You’re all wrong! Griever has 5 appearances! Not 2, not 3, not 4, but 5, if not more!
From what I can remember, he appears as –
– Squall’s Pendant
– Squall’s Ring
– Etched on Squall’s ‘Revolver’ gunblade
– Modelled in Squall’s ‘Lionheart’ gunblade
– Ultimecia’s GF
That is beside the point, paarish’s answer was the closest to the answer I wanted! If he doesn’t ask a question soon, Jeff can take the turn.
FF1WithAllThieves

I cant remember the names of the tunes but I can tell you where they are played.
The opening titles obviously, When you see Edea, Also when Rinoa is possessed and speaks to Seifer as far as I remember.
I think you should give the titles, because I’d need something more specific than "when you see Edea" because you see her a lot.
But anyway one of those is wrong… and one you missed.

Four of those are correct.
Starting up is ALMOST qualified, except it’s played in the scene where they’re talking to the fake president on the train.
Dead End… well, I’m pretty sure there was dialogue in it’s scene in Dollet, but it’s used again in the scene with the Fisherkid and in Deling.
The other four are correct though…

Name 2 things Pulse ammo is used for.

1. Irvine’s Limit Break, specifically, Pulse Shot
2. Creating Squall’s Lionheart

11-17-2008, 02:14 AM
woops! That is correct. Sorry about that.
its ok i figured you may have forgot, Anyways as olde didn specify if he wanted the question or not im gonna just ask a random card.
In the card classification level you have 10 levels, I want someone to name me a card from each level, Can be any card but there has to be one from each level.
Agent0042
11-17-2008, 04:32 AM
That’s fine, Baby Boink, but it’s still Olde’s question if he wants it. I think normally it’s assumed that if you have the correct answer, you do want the question, unless you specifically say that you want it to be free if you’re right. But we can go ahead with this in the meantime until we hear from Olde.

This one sounds fun, so I’ll give it a shot:
1: Bite Bug
2: Creeps
3: Bomb
4: Tonberry
5: Tonberry King
6: Elvoret
7: Ultima Weapon
8: Minimog
9: Eden
10: Squall (this level’s pretty easy, isn’t it?)
I’m pretty sure about all of them except 2-4.

It’s okay to let the next person to get it right carry on.

YEah there is a mistake there.

Tonberry King is lvl 6 IIRC

Um… well, thanks. In that case…
1: Bite Bug
2: Creeps
3: Bomb
4: Tonberry

9: Eden
10: Squall (this level’s pretty easy, isn’t it?)
FF1WithAllThieves
11-23-2008, 01:49 AM
Tonberry King is NOT level 6, as a matter of fact. You reposted my mistake, actually.
Agent0042
11-23-2008, 01:52 AM
Rightio, well, in any case, why don’t you just have a go at another question? You were the only one who even attempted it and apparently you only made one mistake. We’ve been siting on this one long enough, so let’s get moving again.
FF1WithAllThieves
11-23-2008, 02:12 AM
Fair enough. My mistake was that I switched Bomb’s and Tonberry’s levels. Everything else was right.
Aside from Ultima, which magic spell junctions best to Vit?

Meltdown, it is. Your question.
Olde
11-23-2008, 04:56 AM
Alright, we all know that Tiamat is the counterpart to Bahamut, at least in FFVIII. However, its large, most powerful attack isn’t called Mega Flare. What is it called?
Olde
11-23-2008, 06:10 AM
yeah, that one wasn’t hard at all. your go.

Okay… kinda easy I don’t know.
What is the earliest point in the game, story-wise, that it is technically possible to learn Shockwave Pulsar?
Agent0042
11-25-2008, 12:28 AM
Hmm, if I’m not mistaken, story-wise, that would be after the events up in the communication tower in Dollet.
FF1WithAllThieves
11-25-2008, 01:59 AM
Sounds right to me, but that’d require a lot of Tri-Face cards.
Sorry didn’t notice this got replies… but yes that’s correct.
A lot of Tri-Face cards is right, but that’s a walk on the beach compared to leveling Siren to 100 (which can be done as well)!
Agent0042
11-27-2008, 04:04 AM
Thanks, Zak. And yes– that’s exactly what I was about to say– yeah, getting the Tri-Face cards would take a while, but it’s definitely the leveling of Siren that would make it pretty exhausting to try to obtain Shockwave Pulsar at that point.
Hrm, all right, new question, then. I guess this one shouldn’t be too rough…
For what reason does Laguna decide to give Ward the "Cuchi-Cuchi treatment"?
Ceidwad
11-27-2008, 01:39 PM
Is it for suggesting that they’re doomed in Centra in the face of Esthar Soldiers, just before they leap off the cliff?
May be completely wrong here, I’m acting on a very fuzzy memory of the game.
Ceidwad from what I remember that would have been my guess as well.
Agent0042
11-28-2008, 03:14 AM
Yeah, you got it, Ceidwad. He says something like "It’s been fun, you guys" and Laguna says that it’s not cool to say stuff like that and gives him the "Cuchi Cuchi treatment."
Your go, if you want it.
Ceidwad
11-28-2008, 11:51 AM
OK. This may seem a bit obscure, but it’s the first thing that came to my head. In Esthar in Disc 3, after the Lunatic Pandora incident, there is a non-random, non-compulsory, non-boss encounter you can take part in somewhere in the city. What monster can you fight?
It’s an Elnoyle… I remember that thing annoyed the shit out of me it seemed like it had infinite HP! You talk to one of the soldiers and he’s one in disguise.
Kblargh
11-28-2008, 08:56 PM
*plz ignore this post, i answered the wrong question. i’d delete it if i knew how
(I concur with the answer above, btw.)
Ceidwad
11-28-2008, 10:21 PM
Zak’s right, all the way down to the minor details. Your turn.
Alright…
During the last stage of the Ultimecia battle, how many times does she talk before she dies?
Olde

Is it…four?

05-15-2009, 04:42 AM
Let’s have some more FFVIII Trivia.
Somebody tell me this– when is it possible to get a Game Over even if Phoenix shows up after your entire party has been KOed?
When everyone’s a Zombie?
Agent0042
05-15-2009, 08:49 AM
Good guess, Zak, but no dice I’m afraid. When a character is KOed in VIII, any negative status that they were under goes away, including Zombie. Any other guesses?
Ahh… racking my brains a bit, I think I got it. If any negative status goes away, at first I thought there might be a status where HP can’t change, and that’d be Invincible, but how would you get a game over in the first place. I also considered the "automatic Game Over" possibility like with Banon from VI, but there is no such thing.
Then I thought it was something to do with Phoenix’s damage, maybe if Fire fails to hit it seems unlikely, but that doesn’t make sense, it’s gotta do with Phoenix’s damage.
And that leaves one option, seeing as it never somehow reflects back on you, it’s gotta be a target you can’t kill. In the Adel battle, it can kill Rinoa. Which is SORT of like killing Banon except she’s not in your party.
Agent0042
05-15-2009, 09:35 AM
Erm… you’re overthinking it. And if nobody gets it, you guys are gonna slap yourselves once I reveal the answer. ๐
Anyway, I have no idea if that’s that true or not, but not what I’m looking for. However, if nobody can come up with the answer I’m looking for in, let’s say 24 hours, I’ll award it to you, seeing as it probably is true.
If you run out of time, Say in the missle base during the battle you die in?
Agent0042
05-15-2009, 04:20 PM
Again, not something I would have thought of, but again not what I’m looking for. Another good catch if true, though.
RikkuYunaRinoa
05-15-2009, 04:56 PM
If the time limit runs out when you’re trying to switch the trains around?
Although, i might be wrong in even thinking there is a time limit.
Agent0042
05-15-2009, 07:21 PM
There are no battle sequences during that section of the game, so, sorry, no.
Hint: The answer I’m looking for has nothing to do with time limits or statuses.
non-canon sousaphone
05-16-2009, 02:31 AM
The last battle? I know that if you take too long to revive a character, they disappear. So if Phoenix was summoned if your party all died at that point, would you vanish before it’s effect kicked in?
Agent0042
05-16-2009, 02:41 AM
Any character vanished by Ultimecia is just replaced by another one, if available. So no. However, you’re so hot, you’re almost on fire. You’re closer than anyone else has been to the answer. Still, if nobody else can get it within the next couple ours, I’m gonna have to award it to Zak.
Agent0042
05-16-2009, 04:42 AM
All right, I have to give it to Zak. Your question Zak, if you want it.
And the answer that I was looking for is that Resurrect is one of the eight functions sealed inside Ultimecia’s Castle. Until it’s unsealed, your characters can’t be revived while inside the castle. So if Phoenix appears, his attempt to revive the characters will simply Miss. Game Over. How do I know? It happened to me.
Really… wow, I’m surprised it wasn’t the Adel battle, because I believe that DID happen to me, everyone was dead, Phoenix came, killed Rinoa, and I got game over. So yes, it is true.
I like my answer better because Phoenix actually causes the game over. ๐
But, um…. I can’t think of a question. I’m all out. Someone else can have it.

Ok, question time it is.
During the original planning of FFVIII, Rinoa’s character had another name. What was it?
Jarosik
05-23-2009, 03:53 PM
Correct!
Sounds like washing machine liquid. I wonder if they changed it because of that?
haha free question people!

05-24-2009, 01:29 PM
Lenore’s a real name, I know of an actress named that.

major hint: it’s something positive.
jewess crabcake
06-06-2009, 12:06 AM
OOOOH you meant affects you! I thought you meant affects the enemy, I was like, "I didn’t know invincibility had an affect on any attack connecting". But if it’s you I’m gonna have to say Aura.
Shadow mage
06-06-2009, 06:15 AM
Oh sorry guys if u thought my question was vague…terribly sorry. Aura is incorrect.Sorry.
Agent0042
06-06-2009, 03:35 PM
Just to clarify, you did mean "invincible," right? Your original question says "invisible," which I don’t believe is even a status in this game.
Jarosik
06-06-2009, 06:53 PM
Something I also pondered Agent. Figures really.
Full Cure is what I meant lol.
Jarosik
06-06-2009, 09:09 PM
I’m going to guess ‘Haste’ magic.
Shadow mage
06-06-2009, 11:36 PM
YAY!!!!! IDX Rider got it.
Again i apologize about the vagueness within my question. Next time ill do a better job.
Sweet! You saying it was a good thing made it seem obvious :).
Free question to whoever claims it first.
sefiroslionheart
06-07-2009, 02:20 AM
Okay i’ll take it. might be easy and its kind of a riddle.
Their is one place Squall never goes to and the storyline never guides him their for any reason, whilst their there is no story available to you or special things like Bahamut, where is it?
(Not chocobo forest or weapons facility)
Isley Of The North
06-07-2009, 02:33 AM
Is it the place where Laguna’s statue is?
sefiroslionheart
06-07-2009, 02:38 AM
nope coz that does have a purpose, you get the random GF phoenix. like i said when squall goes to this place it has no story for him.
Agent0042
06-07-2009, 03:33 AM
I’d say there are any of a number of places in the game that seem to have no purpose, but is it Trabia Canyon– the place where Laguna and Kiros (and in some cases Ward as well) were at with the play? I know that you can go back there, but there’s nothing to do there.
sefiroslionheart
06-07-2009, 04:11 AM
okay that one isnt what i was getting at but ur on the right track
jewess crabcake
06-07-2009, 04:51 AM
Shumi Village?
Olde
06-07-2009, 05:02 AM
Is it the basement of Dr. Odine’s laboratory?
I was going to say Julia’s room.
Jarosik
06-07-2009, 04:05 PM
There are quite a few of these.
Agent0042
06-07-2009, 10:43 PM
Yeah, I’m tossing this– this question is stupid. Free question.
sefiroslionheart
06-07-2009, 11:25 PM
*sighs*
Its winhill. Squall technically never went their. and never has to go again ever for no reason whatsoever.
You said no special things. Can’t you get a Phoenix Pinion there?
Or are you making it a sliding scale based on some obscure criteria as to what is special and what isn’t ๐
Agent0042
06-08-2009, 03:17 AM
I thought Trabia Canyon was a better answer. Free question.
Shadow mage
06-08-2009, 07:26 AM
Hey there is a side quest in winhill in which you get a holy stone…so u cant count as insignificant.
Anyways..next question.
Jarosik
06-08-2009, 10:18 AM
During the 2004 Olympics, one of the American synchronised swimming teams used a score of music from Final Fantasy VIII. What was it?
Shadow mage
06-08-2009, 10:22 AM
OUCH!! This is hard.
Im gonna guess eyes on me…cuz once i heard a piano player play it in an american shop once.
Jarosik
06-08-2009, 10:25 AM
Incorrect.
Agent0042
06-08-2009, 05:06 PM
I have no idea, but I’m going to guess "The Landing."
Isley Of The North
06-08-2009, 06:47 PM
"Liberi Fatali" was played during the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens during the women’s synchronized swimming event.
Jarosik
06-08-2009, 07:39 PM
Correct Kratos, your turn.
Agent0042
06-08-2009, 10:02 PM
Dagnab, "Liberi Fatali" was actually going to be my next guess.
That was going to be my first guess because I think it’s more popular than Eyes On Me.
Isley Of The North
06-09-2009, 03:33 AM
Name the only enemy that can be taken out in one blow. (Hint) Its encountered super early in the game.
Agent0042
06-09-2009, 03:46 AM
Er, yeah, Zantetsuken, Death or even normal physical attack. Kratos, you’d better explain what you’re on about quickly or this is going to get tossed to a free question.

Isley Of The North
06-09-2009, 05:13 AM
Im asking about a certain monster that has 2 digit hp that can be killed in one blow.
Agent0042
06-09-2009, 05:42 AM
Well, then your question is disqualified since there’s certainly more than one enemy that has two digit HP at its lowest level. And you can’t just expect people to make random guesses, that’s moronic.
Free question to anyone that wants one.
Shadow mage
06-09-2009, 06:57 AM
Isnt the answer Red Bat cuz its so easy to kill even at the beginning with no training.
Agent0042
06-09-2009, 07:37 AM
It doesn’t matter what the answer is for the reason I already stated. One other good example is Buel.
Jarosik
06-09-2009, 08:35 AM
I was thinking PuPu – didn’t the little fella have a ridiculously low amount of HP at any level?
Anyway, moving swiftly on.
In the magazine ‘Occult Fan I’, what was the old man making a fence with?
Okay, here’s a kind of easy one. Well, to be fair, no looking at any FAQs.
Some GF’s you may obtain by fighting them, while some GF’s you may obtain by drawing from bosses, and some you may get by doing niether and something miscellaneous (Doomtrain).
But what’s the one GF that you may do both to acquire? (by both I mean either since you only really need to do one). As in, there exists a boss fight with this GF itself, and there exists a boss that carries it to Draw.
Jarosik
06-09-2009, 08:48 AM
The answer is Cerberus. You also missed my question.
Shadow mage
06-09-2009, 09:05 AM
Jarosik the answer to yours is ‘Steel Pipes’.
Jarosik
06-09-2009, 10:58 AM
Correct ๐
Shadow mage
06-09-2009, 11:20 AM
Okay i cant think of anything ATM…So free question i guess?? Wait is it even my right to declare that?
Jarosik
06-09-2009, 11:27 AM
Zak or yourself. Agent is the authority on this usually, so hopefully he will be about at some point.
One would think that it would go to the person who answered the RIGHTFUL question master. And because Jarosik was the question master, then it’s up to the person who answered his question to make one of their own or make it into a free question.
Agent0042
06-09-2009, 01:44 PM
Right, Jarosik’s question was asked first and was answered correctly by Shadow mage. Shadow mage declared a free question, so there you have it. Free question to anyone that wants one.
Isley Of The North
06-09-2009, 07:00 PM
This one isn’t confusing.
What are the two limit breaks Seifer uses during the final fight with him? (one depends on if u got a certain GF)
I know one of them is that Bloodfest one. And I heard a few years ago that it’s Zantetsuken something. It adds another character at the end of Zantetsuken; but because I can’t read Japanese, I have no idea what it says…
Isley Of The North
06-09-2009, 10:21 PM
you pretty much got it Bloodfest and Zantetsuken Reverse
I remember it was Zantetsuken-zen or something weird.
Anyways, here’s my question.
How many outfits does Squall wear throughout the game? It’s an easy one and I can’t think of anything that get people scratching their heads.
3?

06-11-2009, 10:38 AM
Yay! I knew talking to random people in the game would help me eventually.

You have to avoid obtaining a specific issue of Timber Maniacs? Erm– do I have to say where it’s located, because I always forget that. Though I think it’s the one in the Shumi Village hotel. If you view it from the computer, Selphie comments that she wonders why Ward isn’t in the picture.

Agent0042

All right, this shouldn’t be too rough… how many SeeD members accompany the cadets on the training mission in Dollet?
non-canon sousaphone
06-11-2009, 06:44 PM
4, two in the bar, one down the road from the bar and Quistis.
Number667
06-11-2009, 07:26 PM
Aren’t you forgetting Xu?
Agent0042
06-11-2009, 10:04 PM
Sorry, not correct.
sefiroslionheart
06-12-2009, 02:15 AM
thats a bit of a dodgey question, u seen how many ships their were on that cutscene?
Theirs a few blocking the road (i think) 2 in the bar, theirs also (when u run away) 2 more. erm damn, uv lost me…….
coz technically ur asking about seed members, people already initiated into seed and everyone on that mission is a cadet.
So…… Xu and Quistis. 2 members.
Agent0042
06-12-2009, 03:05 AM
It’s not a dodgy question– one of the characters specifically states "You will be accompanied by # SeeD members. Should you fail, those members will get the job done. They always do." It is that number I am looking for and no other will do.
And no, 2 isn’t anywhere close to correct.
Agent0042
06-12-2009, 03:51 AM
No, not 20.
Shadow mage
06-12-2009, 05:07 AM
Is it 12?
Agent0042
06-12-2009, 05:33 AM
Sorry, neither correct.
Number667
06-12-2009, 07:32 AM
I’m going to say 6. There is a seed assigned to each task force, and I believe there were four of them. So, that’s 4 SeeDs, plus Quistis and Xu, which would make a total of 6. Except that Seifer’s team didn’t have one, so scratch that.
5?
Agent0042
06-12-2009, 07:33 AM
No. And I’m off-Shrine for right now. I’ll be back sometime later today and check again…
Shadow mage
06-12-2009, 08:57 AM
Damn i was gonna say nine as well. O well you got it first.
Agent0042
06-12-2009, 02:01 PM
Yes, exactly! Cid himself says that 9 SeeD members will accompany the candidates on the mission and that they’ll get the job done if needed. They always do. All this stuff about trying to count up who was with each group, I don’t know. Cid coulda very well pulled that number out of his ass, but it’s what he said, so it’s what we have to go with. Your question if you want it, Zak.

06-12-2009, 10:51 PM
Well, no need to rip my head off then either. Isn’t sorta on you if you come in and say that someone’s posting a "dodgy question" when really you have no idea what you’re talking about because you haven’t played the game in ages?
Jarosik
06-13-2009, 11:30 AM
Girls, please. Would someone post a question?
Shadow mage
06-13-2009, 12:36 PM
Well we’re currently waiting on Zak. Agent0042…should someone else post a question or should we keep waiting?
Agent0042
06-13-2009, 12:48 PM
We should wait. For one thing, it’s the weekend, for another, it’s only been a little less than 24 hours since I said Zak was correct.
I give up… can’t really think of one, but… okay, what two enemies in the game can use Aura on themselves and what does it do?
Isley Of The North
06-13-2009, 11:46 PM
Aura allows the mechanical monster GIM52A to use the Blue Magic Ray-Bomb and allows Raijin to use Raijin Special.

What is Ultimecia’s ultimate attack and how does she attain it?
Agent0042
06-14-2009, 02:31 AM
Well, I suppose it depends on your definition of "ultimate attack," but if you mean Apocalypse magic, she draws it from part of her own final form.
I think it’s Hell’s Judgment, considering it depletes your HP to 1. And she obtains it…through time? Or she just does it because she already has it.
That’s my guess.
Shadow mage
06-14-2009, 04:36 AM
The question is kind of vague but by ‘ultimate attack’ i suppose hes talking about an ability she uses as her final move in attempt to destroy you. In this case it would we Apocalypse as mentioned by Agent0042. If the question didnt say "how does she attain it", I would’ve thought it was somthing else.
How much damage would that do? She never used it on me. And it always did less than 9999 when I used it an any creature (when my characters all maxed out).
Shadow mage
06-14-2009, 12:34 PM
It’s useless compared to Hell’s Judgement and possibly Great Attractor. The thing is they couldn’t make it too powerful because you can use it yourself so it would’ve made the battle way easier and would’ve provided an easy way out if it was shockingly powerful.
Agent0042
06-14-2009, 12:40 PM
Great Attractor could easily be the correct answer. The only reason I didn’t think it was Hell’s Judgment was because of the bit about "how does she attain it?" I suppose we’ll find out soon enough.
Shadow mage
06-14-2009, 12:46 PM
Yea. Its a major give away. But if he didnt add that bit init would.ve been too vague and just another meaningless question(But not in a bad way)
Agent0042
06-14-2009, 12:55 PM
I think it’s time to put a new rule in place: Your question cannot be vague. I repeat your question cannot be vague. You’re entitled to make a mistake, such as I did before, when I asked about how it was possible to get a Game Over with Phoenix and it turned out there was more than one correct answer. But terms such as "ultimate attack" and "taken out in one blow" are obviously vague and therefore not valid. In fact, I think both of these have been posted by Kratos. Kratos, we’re going to have to disqualify you from questioning if you don’t start posting better quality questions.
Isley Of The North
06-14-2009, 11:54 PM
It was apocalyse and it was attained from her mind.
Agent0042
06-14-2009, 11:59 PM
Right, yeah, from her mind. Well, I guess that means it’s my question, then.
Okays…
This should be easy. What were the two things that the Galbadian Soldier on the train wanted to give to his girlfriend and felt that he had lost following the fiasco that occurred?
!!! I swear I was gonna ask about that.
I’d answer, but unfortunately I can’t think of any more questions at the moment… guess I’ll stop participating until I come up with new ideas.
Never heard of Great Attractor either.
What’s that do?
EDIT: Sorry, the link brought me to the previous page. Ignore plz.

Umm I know he wanted to buy her a ring. Was the other one flowers.
Agent0042

Nope, ‘fraid not. And I need both to award it as a correct answer.
Shadow mage
06-15-2009, 12:08 PM
OH i remember now. It was a ring and the other was a special dinner(I think).
Agent0042
06-15-2009, 12:31 PM
Yeah, that’s the one. Your question, if you want it.
Shadow mage
06-16-2009, 07:14 AM
Uhh okay. This one’s gonna be strange.
Ultimately, whose actions made the Squall and Co. end up in Desert Prison?
I’m not sure I understand what the answer you’re looking for is. Who orchestrated the actions, or who executed them… it really is a debatable question. Unless for some reason the answer you’re looking for cannot be argued.
Shadow mage
06-16-2009, 08:32 AM
Okay ill try and re-phrase.
Who actually is responsible for making Squall & Co. end up in Desert Prison?
Meaning that a person(or people) acted/decided upon something and the party ends up in Desert Prsion.
The creators of the game because ultimately, there is no way of getting around going there?
Shadow mage
06-16-2009, 08:59 AM
In terms of the game story and characters.
HINT: One NPC in the game actually mentions it directly.
jewess crabcake
06-16-2009, 11:42 AM
Edea Kramer, sent them to the prison to protect them from her, should Ultimecia take over her body again.

06-17-2009, 04:43 AM
You know what. I’ll actually accept NORG cuz its quite close. This is the dialogue said.
Garden Faculty 2: The sorceress retaliated. Just as we suspected. No
doubt, it was the sorceress who ordered the missile attacks. Something
must be done to calm the sorceress’ anger. In order to do so, we needed
to hand over those involved in the assassination to the sorceress. We
had to show Balamb Garden’s sincerity.
Im accepting NORG cuz he was one major component of garden.
So FF1WithAllThieves got it
Shadow mage
06-17-2009, 08:41 AM
Aww dont be like that. Its just a random question that popped into my head when I was struggling to come up with one.
Jarosik
06-17-2009, 10:29 AM
Irritating that the question had no fixed answer. Not trying to police things here as Agent does a splendid job otherwise, but consider for everyone taking part, to be competing with open ended questions is annoying to say the least.
You know what. I’ll actually accept NORG cuz its quite close.
Shadow mage
06-17-2009, 10:45 AM
Okay sorry.
*gulp* i wonder what Agent will say now.
*Breaks into song*
LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME!
FF1WithAllThieves
06-17-2009, 07:31 PM
The question was a bit vague, but since you accepted NORG, I don’t think it was too unfair. Anyway:
Which Triple Triad card refines the least efficiently; that is, it takes the greatest number of cards to refine into 1 item?
Agent0042
06-17-2009, 08:28 PM
Hmm… is it the Tri-Point card?
Creeps!
Or was it the item they drop? Either way, you need 100 of whichever item it is to get just one Dark Matter. If not 100, then just basically a shitload.
Right?
Agent0042
06-18-2009, 02:56 AM
Er– that was the item they drop, Curse Spike.
Oh, right.
Nvm then. I’m going to guess Bite Bug then if Creeps isn’t the right one.
I’m pretty sure Agent got it anyway.
Shadow mage
06-18-2009, 04:37 AM
Yeah it is the Tri-Point. You need 40 for one rocket engine(or was it jet engine)
I never refined cards that much… Maybe I will next time.
I refined the Bahamut card for holy wars, I think it is. And, I was able to win it back from the Card Queen or one of the CC members on the Ragnarok. Totally weird, but MUCH APPRECIATED!
Doesn’t the Bahamut card refine into 100 Megalixirs?
Not that that’s not better than Holy Wars… well, 10 Holy Wars. Don’t think anything refines to 100 of them… something does for 10 at most.
Well, whatever. It was something that I used in the Omega Weapon fight.
I remember I managed to beat Omega Weapon without using Holy Wars. It was fucking hell!
Agent0042
06-18-2009, 03:45 PM
All right, normally I like to wait for the questioner to confirm the correct answer, but everyone seems to agree that I was correct, so…
How about this? What are the colors of all the rocks on Esthar-Mordred Plains, some of which talk nonsense or say the opposite of what they mean?
Oh– and I beat Omega Weapon recently without Holy Wars too. Squall —> Renzokuken / Lionheart, Zell —> Duel "Armageddon Fist", Irvine —-> Shot. Managed to defeat him before he even had a chance to execute Terra Break.
Jarosik

All right, I’ll have a go at this.
Name at least two battles where having a permanent character take experience points is absolutely unavoidable.
Um… all the Balamb faculty members when the garden’s in chaos?
I’m going to assume when Seifer and Edea are in your party?
For some reason, I have a hard time trying to figure out what exactly you’re asking. The main character pretty much gains EXP in any battle outside of the boss battles.
Olde
06-22-2009, 02:55 AM
Um… all the Balamb faculty members when the garden’s in chaos?
No, in my game those were EXP-free battles. Edit: Those monsters can all be carded, anyway (except for the Raldos in the Granaldo battle, but that battle can be avoided entirely by choosing "Let them handle it").
I’m going to assume when Seifer and Edea are in your party?
For some reason, I have a hard time trying to figure out what exactly you’re asking. The main character pretty much gains EXP in any battle outside of the boss battles.
Let me expand upon my question. In a no-level-up game, it’s possible to avoid EXP almost entirely by gaining the Card ability only through AP given in boss battles, and then continue through the game by carding all monsters found in random encounters (AP is awarded after carding enemies, but not EXP). Alternatively, if you inflict petrification on an enemy, they will not give EXP either. Some battles that give EXP are mandatory, and you can’t card or petrify the enemies, for instance, during the Seed mission in Dollet; however, you can give all the EXP gained to Seifer, and keep none for Squall and Zell, by killing Squall and Zell. So my question is, where are there two mandatory battles that give EXP where you can’t card or petrify the enemies and you don’t have a non-permanent member to take the EXP?
I understood the question but I thought those battles give you EXP since they include normal monsters. Are the Paratroopers one, since they’re un-Card-able?
Olde
06-22-2009, 03:03 AM
No, because they can be petrified, which also won’t give EXP.
Agent0042
06-22-2009, 03:31 AM
– Battle with Estharian soldiers (Laguna dream world)
– Battle with GIM52As– the battle at the end of the Missile Base.
Sketchy on the first, pretty sure about the second.
Aren’t GIM52As Cardable? I’m pretty sure there’s a card of them…
FF1WithAllThieves
06-22-2009, 04:18 AM
The soldiers in the missle base that recognize your wrong salute are one battle. If Agent has the other half, give it to him.
Shadow mage
06-22-2009, 06:15 AM
the purple robots? they dont have a card. I’m pretty sure.
-GIM52A’s has been mentioned
-What about the blue Galbadian soldiers you have to fight during the Dollet Mission.
Olde
06-22-2009, 04:10 PM
Agent, sorry, but wrong on both. The Esthar soldiers I assume you are talking about (correct me if I’m wrong, I think you were talking about the battles in Lunatic Pandora) are petrifiable. Also, the battle with the Elite Soldier and GIM52As won’t award any EXP since it’s a boss battle. Furthermore, the Elite Soldier (and, I believe, the GIM52As too) can be petrified, although neither can be carded.
Shadow mage, the Galbadian soldiers in the Dollet mission were mentioned in my clarification (you can end up giving all the EXP to Seifer).
FF1WithAllThieves has got one of the battles right so far.
The battles before you get the Card Mod ability or the Break spell?
Olde
06-23-2009, 05:02 AM
Considering Card Mod doesn’t have any effect on enemies, no. ๐
ftr, the battles before getting the Card ability can all be avoided as well.

Shadow mage, the Galbadian soldiers in the Dollet mission were mentioned in my clarification (you can end up giving all the EXP to Seifer).
FF1WithAllThieves has got one of the battles right so far.
Let’s see though. The only accesses to Break are:
-One Draw point in the game on Lunatic Pandora AFTER Seifer, so Disc 4.
-The only monsters that have it as a "Low Level Drawable Magic" are Imps, which you don’t find until Disc 3, and Iguions, which you get near the end of the first disc (so you better prolong the battle and stock them up).
-Refining Cockatrice Pinions… which I THINK you can get from Cockatrices somehow without getting EXP, maybe stealing or their card… but does Petrifying give drops? Well, regardless, you need Diablos’ ST Mag RF to do that, so you must have Diablos.
-Selphie’s Limit Break. This is the usual way to rely on it.
But during the Laguna dream sequence, you obviously haven’t been to that part of LP, you haven’t fought Iguions or Imps, and I’m pretty sure you don’t have Diablos, and Selphie is Kiros so you can’t use her limit break. So therefore they’re unpetrifyable, the soldiers.
Agent0042
06-23-2009, 12:31 PM
Okay, I know there’s an FAQ that discusses this matter over at GameFAQs. I’m going to sort to the bottom of this… Although as for refining via Cockatrice Pinion, I think you’re forgetting about Triple Triad. Oh, and Diablos is obtainable just before setting off for the first SeeD mission.
Okay… guide confirms that the Missile Base soldiers are a correct answer.
In that case, how about one of the battles during the final Laguna dream sequence in the prison?
The first battle at Ultamecia’s castle is the other one?
I think not… bosses don’t give EXP.
Right. I never thought they were considered as boss battles.
I’m going to make a final guess: in the prison again right after you get your weapons back.
Olde
06-23-2009, 11:52 PM
[…]how about one of the battles during the final Laguna dream sequence in the prison?
Exactamundo. Actually, both of those battles must be ended with kills seeing as the cyborg soldiers can’t be petrified or carded, the battle can’t be escaped and it’s not a boss fight. The mandatory battle with the cyborg soldiers in LP (the one that ends with the move that brings Ward’s and Kiros’s HP to 1) counts as a boss battle. As far as I am aware, these two plus the battle at the Missile Base are the ONLY battles in the game that require you to get EXP.
Good job Agent, it’s your turn now.
Zak, as resourceful as your argument was, the no-level-up game almost requires a crap-load of hours playing cards to get magic like Meltdown, Break, Quake, Pain, and third-level elemental magic all extremely early on.
If anyone’s interested, I should point out that the mandatory battles that award EXP that can also be avoided include the battles at Balamb Garden in the first half of Disc 2 (by carding), the Ruby Dragon at the beginning of Disc 3 (by carding), the Ruby Dragons in the fight with Bahamut by carding (although those are not really mandatory), the battles with Dollet soldiers (by giving EXP to Seifer), and all human enemies afterward can be petrified (for instance, the Esthar soldiers in the Laguna sequence in LP, the guards in the Dollet prison, the first battle with BGH251F2, the paratroopers at the end of Disc 2, etc.).

FF1WithAllThieves
06-25-2009, 10:11 PM
I’m pretty sure you can refine break from softs, which, you know, you can buy.
Anyway, I guess I’ll come up with a question, then:
What is the only life-threatening (time runs out = game over) time limit in the game which you can reset without restarting the game or getting a game over?
Is it when Squall and co. are undoing the train cars when they’re trying to kidnap the President of Deling (which ended up being an impostor that could be killed easily) as a mission due to Rinoa requesting help from SeeD that Cid said she can use??
FF1WithAllThieves
06-26-2009, 08:01 AM
Nope, not that one. If I wasn’t clear about this, completing whatever you have a time limit for doing and starting a new timer doesn’t count.
Agent0042
06-26-2009, 12:31 PM
"Rinoa was lost in space… forever."
Try again?
Nope, not that one. If I wasn’t clear about this, completing whatever you have a time limit for doing and starting a new timer doesn’t count.
You weren’t. But it would still fulfill the requirements considering it can be "restarted" without a game over or restarting the game and it would be game over if it ran out.
FF1WithAllThieves
06-26-2009, 07:33 PM
Ugh, this question seems to be difficult to clarify. By "life-threatening" I meant that you can’t simply restart the mini-game if time runs out.
Agent0042
06-26-2009, 07:33 PM
So then my answer isn’t correct? It’s not the outer space sequence? Save Rinoa?
FF1WithAllThieves
06-26-2009, 07:35 PM
Well, you can’t restart the timer without losing it or restarting the game, right? It definitely isn’t what I was looking for.
Agent0042
06-26-2009, 10:41 PM
Is it the Missile Base mission?
FF1WithAllThieves
06-26-2009, 10:50 PM
Nope, it’s a game over if you run out of time, and you can’t reset the clock while it’s running.
Agent0042
06-26-2009, 10:55 PM
Thinking… aha– duh. Very first mission with Squall and Quistis, right? Retrieve GF Ifrit.
That was gonna be my next guess. I never ran out of time though but I couldn’t think of anything else.
BTW, on the train sequence, if you let one of the guards see you and choose "Ah…it’s nothing" or whatever it is, it practically restarts the timer and you don’t get a Game Over either.
I don’t think you can reset that, once you’re in, you’re in… assuming I understand the question correctly.
So is it getting Odin? I know that Zantetsuken is used when the timer runs out, and it’s a place you can leave while the timer is going, so it fulfills those two requirements. Though I’ve never seen what happens when the timer runs out before you get into the battle, so… kinda a loose end there I guess. Unless the Zantetsuken making it at least half "life-threatening" qualifies…
FF1WithAllThieves
06-27-2009, 07:57 PM
Zak got it, it’s Odin’s tower. In that one, there’s a timer as soon as you enter, but if you leave before you fight Odin, he gets pissed off and yells "DISHONOURABLE WRETCH!" at you. When you re-enter, the timer will have reset, and it will be as though you were there for the first time.
Okay… this might be easy but I noticed that a lot of people actually do not know this:
What is Eden supposed to be?
I have heard different ideas/suggestions, but there is a specific answer I’m looking for which I think you would agree makes the most sense and was indeed the intention.
Shadow mage
06-28-2009, 11:59 AM
Ive heard its meant to be representation of The Garden Of Eden. Now that I think about it. The garden here could reference to one of the gardens in the game. Maybe its supposed to be a futuristic garden. Anyway sorry my guess is that it’s Garden Of Eden.
You got it! Hah, everyone I’ve run into always acts so surprised when I tell them that. I have mentioned it on this board before a while ago and got a bunch of "oh wow, I never noticed that".
But yeah, to be more specific, the answer I was looking for was that, because in the VIII universe, the places where SeeDs and soldiers and whatnot train, are big round field/buildings called "Gardens", and the GF Eden itself does look a lot like a giant "Garden" by that definition, got the round shape and other "Garden"-like features, hence the name Eden.
So not exactly THE Garden of Eden, but the GARDEN of Eden, like Balamb, Trabia, Galbadia, etc.
Anyway, your go, Shadow.
Jarosik
06-28-2009, 07:38 PM
The game’s most poweful GF is called Eden. This is actually the name of the paradise, "Garden of Eden" (Hebrew "Gan Eden"), from where Adam and Eve were expelled, according to the first book of Moses from the Old Testament. Why is the most powerful GF a garden? Because the universities where the heroes of the game study and train are called gardens. It is logical the most powerful garden is also the most powerful weapon.
Shadow mage

Well Explained Zak and Jarosik.
This queston is potentially easy:
What three monsters does are not affected by Blue Magic Degenerator?
Grats, Vysages and… I think Forbiddens?
Shadow mage
06-30-2009, 04:57 AM
Oooh 2 of them are right. However one is wrong.
non-canon sousaphone
06-30-2009, 09:28 AM
He’s probably missing Tonberry.
Shadow mage
06-30-2009, 10:48 AM
Yeah Ionic Warrior You got it.
Umm Zak or Ionic Warrior who wants. I think Zak should take it because he listed more monsters.
Agent0042
07-05-2009, 05:34 AM
If neither Zak or Ionic Warrior takes it within the next 24 hours, it’s open to whoever wants it.
I can’t think of a question… but which one of mine was wrong?
Shadow mage
07-06-2009, 08:34 PM
Forbidden.
sefiroslionheart
07-06-2009, 11:21 PM
okay, i got an easy one, how many griever items does squall usually wear?
Shadow mage
07-07-2009, 01:00 AM
one..just his ring.
jewess crabcake
07-07-2009, 01:12 AM
2 the ring, and his pendant on his gunblade.
sefiroslionheart
07-07-2009, 02:19 AM
sorry, no and no. I honestly expected it to be done in 1 guess.
Agent0042
07-07-2009, 02:27 AM
Two — his necklace and his ring.
sefiroslionheart
07-07-2009, 02:40 AM
again, no, but so close. i honestly wonder if you people just toy around with the obvious questions…..
Victorthebattousai
07-07-2009, 05:25 AM
What do you mean? The pendant on his necklace is reaver, as well as the pendant on his sword. I’m looking at a pic of them right now. Unless we’re talking about his seed uniform, in which case it’s 0, because he doewn’t wear any of that.
Shadow mage
07-07-2009, 11:35 PM
Umm what about his Gunblade case. I think i recall seeing on it Griever’s symbol.
sefiroslionheart
07-07-2009, 11:44 PM
sorry, the answer is 3.
The ring, the necklace and the sword pendant hanging from the handle.
thought that one was fairly simple. funny thing is, between you, you got em all, u just kept saying 2.
anyone who wants to take it, take it.
Okay I got one. What final weapon(s) is/are impossible to get on Disc 1?
Note: Seeing as there are six and you can just say all six of them, I’m not gonna wait for all of them to be mentioned, as most usually do for "list" questions. Instead, I’ll wait for a post that includes all of them and only them, no more and no less. So, if you guess some along with others that aren’t it, then I’ll just say wrong. I won’t even say "X of those are right".
sefiroslionheart
07-08-2009, 03:03 AM
(Two guesses here)
Isn’t it them all because it’s impossible to obtain any of the final weapon magazines on disk 1?
March, April and May are the only ones you can get on the first disk.
If your going to be really wide about this then here goes, if my memory is correct it is:
Lionheart, Ehrgeiz, Strange vision, Save the Queen, ermmm…..shooting star (i think) And Irvines is……is….Exeter.
OR
Is it just the Exeter because moon stone cant be refined by card mod or done by GF abilities?
Okay, since you split the guesses so separately, I’ll give it to you, the second option is correct. It is only the Exeter, because of the elusive Moon Stone.
Not having magazines doesn’t stop you from making them. As long as you have the proper items, if you complete the recipe before getting the respective Magazine, that will add them to the Junk Shop as well. I had the Twin Lance unexpectedly appear in my Junk Shop early.
Everything else, as time consuming as it may be, can be obtained on Disc 1. Those early Energy Crystals are a doozy.
Anyway, your question if you want it.
sefiroslionheart
07-08-2009, 03:37 AM
well actually na, i was about to get some rest, and my minds at a blank. besides, their was one problem with ff8, why would i need the lionheart when i can junction water to strength and do 4000+ damage right after the field exam with ifrit?
nope, cant think of a thing that i wouldnt have to look up to know the answer to. its all yours zak.
Victorthebattousai
07-08-2009, 04:22 AM
Hold on, 3? You kept telling everyone "no and no" whenever they responded with the two. :/ Ohhh welll….
Agent0042
07-08-2009, 04:49 AM
And I don’t see how a pendant hanging from a sword counts as "wearing."
Anyway, sefiros, if you’re not taking the question, that doesn’t mean it goes back to Zak, that means that it’s open. So I’ll take it, since rightfully I should have a question anyway, since a thing dangling from a sword is not wearing.
Let’s see… this shouldn’t be too hard. Why was it that Laguna didn’t know about "Eyes on Me" when Raine mentioned it during the conversation with him and Kiros in the Winhill Pub?
Because he had not yet met or heard of Julia?
Agent0042
07-08-2009, 05:14 AM
No, sorry, not it. The Winhill sequence occurs well after Laguna’s having met and talked to Julia in the hotel room.
jewess crabcake
07-08-2009, 05:27 AM
I believe he was off on a mission and couldn’t really hear music or something like that right?
My next guess was gonna be something similar. He was busy doing his army stuff while her newest album was released. He had already heard her play it on the piano, but that was before it was popular.
Agent0042
07-08-2009, 05:42 AM
Much closer to the mark, but I’m looking for the specific reason Laguna gave in-game why he didn’t know how it goes, and that’s not it.
I dunno… he never heard the album itself?
Agent0042
07-08-2009, 06:00 AM
Again, correct in the essentials, but he had a usual, specific Laguna-whiny reason why he hadn’t heard it. But that’s essentially correct, so it’s your question in 24 hours if nobody can come up with the exact correct answer.
Dammit, all your questions involve exact direct quotes from small details… I just looked up the actual answer on youtube and I doubt anyone would have gotten it, but I guess we’ll see in 24 hours.
FF1WithAllThieves
07-08-2009, 03:41 PM
Isn’t it something to the effect that Raine has the song but didn’t know he listened to music?
Agent0042
07-08-2009, 03:57 PM
Looks like somebody did get it, then, because that’s correct. Yeah, his excuse is that Raine never played it for him. And yeah, she says she didn’t think he listened to music. Your go if you want it, FF1WithAllThieves. Otherwise, it reverts to Zak and if he doesn’t want it, it’s a free question.
FF1WithAllThieves
07-08-2009, 10:14 PM
Alright, sticking with the Laguna theme, when is the first time he visibly notices that something is different as a result of the main characters’ presence due to Ellone’s power?
Edit: I made the words a little bit clearer. Does nobody know this one?
Shadow mage
07-11-2009, 08:15 PM
The question is really confusing. I only understand half of it. :[
FF1WithAllThieves
07-12-2009, 03:53 PM
There are a couple of times Laguna alludes to "the Faeries" during the Laguna sequences, and I want to know the first time that he visibly notices that there’s something like that going on in his head.
Agent0042
07-12-2009, 04:19 PM
Isn’t that during the third sequence, when he’s asking questions and you have the option to choose one as Squall, and he says that he thinks the faeries are there and so the battles should be easier?
When he said he’s afraid of waking up somewhere else??
FF1WithAllThieves
07-13-2009, 05:21 AM
You have the right idea, but it’s earlier than that. If this one’s too hard, I’ll give you a hint.
Agent0042
07-13-2009, 05:22 AM
Okay… when we he first notices the weirdness with the old key in the second Laguna sequence? Or do we have to go all the way back to the first one?
sefiroslionheart
07-13-2009, 05:27 AM
Okay is it when he’s with Julia and squall says something totally negative and i think he starts having a total mind job where he argues with himself.
I honestly don’t know, your wording on the question is poor (no offense, i only say it because i know I’m not the only one struggling to comprehend what you mean)
I thought it was in the bar with julia. Pretty sure he hears them there…
If not, it’s on the way to the galbadia frozen base (before the old key bit).
Agent0042
07-13-2009, 06:05 AM
Oh my goodness, Kie — it’s been so long! Glad to see you back!
No one escapes the pull. No one. wbwb.
FF1WithAllThieves
07-13-2009, 05:54 PM
You’re still on the right track, but I can think of a specific example a little bit before what you’ve mentioned. The kind of thing I’m talking about is, for instance, the dialogue in Winhill when you have a list of things to talk about, and one of the options is to say something from the perspective of Squall, which makes Laguna comment on the presence of the faeries. In the event I’m talking about, though, he simply reacts strangely rather than commenting on their presence.
Agent0042
07-13-2009, 07:42 PM
Well, then I’m thinking that would have to be in the bar within the hotel. I think it was at the part where he’s trying to muster up the courage to walk onstage and talk to Julia and there’s a "Squall option."
FF1WithAllThieves
07-14-2009, 11:49 PM
I’ll say that’s close enough. It actually comes up just before Laguna has the waitress show them to the table. You have the option of getting a table, continuing to walk around, or "what’s going on?" in darkened print, which makes Laguna clutch his head in confusion. I apologize if this was too obscure, but it seems like we’re running out of material for questions that aren’t too easy.
sefiroslionheart
07-15-2009, 12:43 AM
sorry, but honestly, that isnt visually anything. Anyone agreeing?
i think we should put all the trivia into one massive thread in the general section.
After 1738 replies, i think maybe you should venture into more complex questions like say "How many locations are their in all the Final fantasy’s on the PS1?". Just as an example.
FF1WithAllThieves
07-15-2009, 01:49 AM
Laguna doesn’t do subtle movements. Ever. When I say he clutches his head, I mean he does it really obviously, to the point that someone would probably think he’s having a seizure. Also, you were talking about my questions being vague? The example you posted is the most vague trivia question I’ve ever seen, and I do trivia very frequently.
Agent0042
07-15-2009, 01:57 AM
sefiros, sorry, but fail again.
FF1 – all well, whatever. Let’s just move on…
Okay, this should be easy for any true fan of the game, so no looking it up. Name me every ability that’s sealed when you initially enter Ultimecia’s castle, exactly as they’re worded in the English version.
I hope that by "Exactly as their worded" you don’t mean in order.
I can think of eight bosses so I’m assuming there are eight in total, but the only ones I can think of are…
Magic
GF
Save
Revive
Item
Limit Break
Draw
I can’t think of what the last one is…
Agent0042
07-15-2009, 03:25 AM
Six correct, one worded incorrectly, one missing. Your question in 24 hours if nobody can do better.
I have hidden your answer set behind a spoiler tag– if anyone else wants to play, I ask that they play fair and not peek.
FF1WithAllThieves
07-15-2009, 03:53 AM
Alright, it helps me enough to know that there are eight. I’ll give it a shot:
Draw
Magic
GF
Resurrect
Item
Save
Command
Limit
This is my best guess. Hope I didn’t screw up.
Agent0042
07-15-2009, 04:02 AM
FF1 — correct in the essentials, not completely correct in the wording. It’s now yours within 12 hours (since you are essentially correct) unless someone can get closer.
I think Command is wrong. You missed Ability, maybe that’s what replaces Command. Not sure if it’s resurrect…I remember it being revive.
Agent0042
07-15-2009, 04:14 AM
Resurrect is not the correct wording, but neither is Revive. Command is wrong, but so is Ability.
Is it Life then?
So it’s not ability…how about GF Ability? lol, i remember the word ability.
Agent0042
07-15-2009, 04:19 AM
No, and no. And Kie, if you wanna play, you have to post the full list. But if you’ve already peeked at the spoiler, it’s too late.
Well i’m not really playing this one, i’m just trying to figure it out lol.
is Resurrection one of them?
Agent0042
07-15-2009, 05:12 AM
Yes.
I have two guesses at what the other one is, let’s try one at a time.
Is it Command Ability?
Agent0042
07-15-2009, 05:26 AM
Yeah, that’s it. Okay, I guess it’s your question if you want it. You’ve earned it.
Okay. What Blue Magic isn’t actually ever used by any enemy?
sefiroslionheart
07-15-2009, 06:18 AM
isn’t that one called "degenerate", or "degenerator" or something to that effect?
(playing ff8 right now)
Nope, the Gespers in the dream sequence use it.
sefiroslionheart
07-15-2009, 07:26 AM
Then i suppose ill go with the obvious and say gatling gun.
Though honestly, i’d never seen it used in that dream sequence, but take your word for it.
It does, and instead of killing a party member it removes them completely.
And no, Gatling Gun is used by those blue robots in FH that drop Running Fire.
Shadow mage
07-16-2009, 04:52 AM
Ooh i cant remember too well. But is it Fire Breath?
Yep!
Well, that’s the answer I was looking for. I consider any Lv#Death to count as Lv?Death, and Belhelmel’s "Counter Laser Eye" to me counts as Laser Eye.
Everything else but Fire Breath is used word for word. The Ruby Dragons (where the Inferno Fangs come from) have an attack called "Breath", but it’s not close like the other two examples as it isn’t even Fire elemental.
Your question, Shadow.
Shadow mage
07-16-2009, 03:46 PM
Okay, im not exactly in a good position to think up a question…so ill ask a very basic one.
When you are using Laguna, during the Ruby Dragon scene, the location you are in has two possible names(from what Ive read and seen).
What are the two names?
FF1WithAllThieves
07-18-2009, 07:10 PM
One of them is Trabia Canyon, but I can’t think of the other one.
Shadow mage
07-24-2009, 04:43 AM
Ok "Trabia Canyon" is correct. I have seen another name though.(ive ony seen it on the ne not in the game).
Not in the game? How’s that fair?
My thoughts exactly. It’s like saying the Obel Lake beast has a name that wasn’t mentioned in the game or official strategy guide.
Agent0042
07-26-2009, 09:39 PM
Right yeah, enough of this. Question awarded to FF1WithAllThieves.
FF1WithAllThieves
07-26-2009, 11:13 PM
I always thought Trabia Canyon was a really cool geographical feature because it’s the gateway to Esthar. Anyway:
We all know that Squall has the highest natural hit% (eventually 255 without junctioning anything). Who has the lowest?
Edit: Just found out it’s actually a two-way tie. If you guess either one, I’ll set a mark of 6 hours for someone to guess both of them. If you guess both of them, well, then you win. Please put your answers in spoiler tags for this purpose.
sefiroslionheart
07-27-2009, 12:34 AM
i’m honestly thinking its Irvine and Rinoa, using projectiles just seems the likely choice. Though im probably wrong.
Agent0042
07-27-2009, 12:42 AM
I was going to go with Rinoa for general suckiness in battle and Zell because while his fists may be tough, they aren’t necessarily accurate.
FF1WithAllThieves
07-27-2009, 05:36 AM
Alright, since you guys didn’t use spoiler tags, I’ll go ahead and tell you that IDX got Selphie right and Agent got Zell right. They each start with a hit% of 98, whereas Rinoa starts with 99. Squall actually starts with 255, by the way. Whichever of you can post a question first gets it, I guess.
I would’ve just said that we both had one character right and let the question still stand until someone had them both in one answer.
BUT! That’s not the case so I’ll post I guess:
Near the end of Disc 1, what do you do to release a ghost from his tomb and what does this ghost say?
Agent0042
07-27-2009, 05:23 PM
You defeat Sacred and Minotaur and the ghost asks why people feel the need to confine souls in tombs after such a long journey through life. He’s the unknown king.
FF1WithAllThieves
07-27-2009, 09:17 PM
That one was pretty easy, but kudos to you, Agent, for getting the wording down so exactly.
Agent0042
07-27-2009, 09:54 PM
Well, I guess you missed that I already used that one as a trivia question not too long ago. ๐ Unless somebody responds, I’ll edit this post with a new question in 2-4 hours.
Edit– okay, here’s the new question. During the Balamb rescue sequence, there’s a guy who sells tips. What are the three types of tips and how much do they cost each?
He said the brothers BUT THAT’S OKAY!
Meltigemini
08-01-2009, 02:30 PM
Bronze 1,500
Silver 5,000
Gold 20,000
Not so sure on the amounts considering I didn’t go near him since the first time I played :p
Agent0042
08-01-2009, 03:56 PM
Correct on the types, not correct on at least one of the amounts, but it’s yours since nobody else is playing at the moment.
FF1WithAllThieves
08-04-2009, 05:40 PM
I always looked up where to find "the captain" on the internet so I wouldn’t have to waste gil, so I had no idea.
Meltigemini
08-08-2009, 12:10 AM
Alright, sorry about the wait.
What enemy always resorts to using only its weakest attacks when there are only one or two characters alive in the battle?
Uh, Diablos? I don’t know because none of my characters have died since I first played the game (back when it first came out).
BUT I’LL KEEP ON GUESSIN’!
Meltigemini
08-08-2009, 12:23 AM
No, if anything he just seems to pile on the physical attacks when it’s getting tough.
Maybe I should clarify the question anyway, I’m thinking of a non-boss (regular) monster.
Oh. Then I’m not gonna guess because I haven’t fought every regular monster in the game. Let alone trying to name them all in hopes I’ll get one right.
Agent0042
08-08-2009, 12:30 AM

…doomtrain he is pointless…
Correction.
Doomtrain allows for ST-Def-J x4, Elem-Def-J x4, the Forbid Med-RF ability and also the Junk Shop ability. Given that Ultima and Aura are two of the games most useful magics, the forbidden magic refine ability is far from pointless.
Sorry Agent, I can not answer your question. I just wanted to put this chap straight.
alonelikethewolf
08-11-2009, 10:06 PM
i can see where your coming from Jarosik but cant you get forbidden magic refine another way like Eden or someone. Also its not the only junk shop in the game you can get, i just think that for a gf who takes all that hassle there should be only abilities you cannot get otherwise
Let’s not forget his Vit 0.
Jarosik
08-11-2009, 10:13 PM
I actually got that wrong, I apologise.
Forbidden medicine is the ability. Not magic. Bahamut provides that one. However, the 4x slots for status defence and elemental defense is invaluable.
alonelikethewolf
08-11-2009, 10:16 PM
yea your right about that, dont i feel sheepish ๐ i guess i took him for granted, he was a pain in the ass to get though. I guess it adds to the feeling of accomplishment getting him ๐
Jarosik
08-11-2009, 10:22 PM
As a GF he isn’t actually that bad. The meltdown effect is useful against most, if not all opponents with bosses included. The other status effects are a hinderence too. Think about how much a pain in the arse the Malboro is to take down, and reverse the direction.
I figure that most people develope much quicker, more convenient and more efficient methods of taking down their opponents, so Doomtrain does become somewhat surplus to requirements in terms of battle. The GF abilities though are certainly worth the effort required to ascertain him.
Also worth mentioning this too that the Forbid Med-RF, combined with the right battle tactics will provide a player with stat increasing items (Str Up, HP Up etc).
Agent0042
08-11-2009, 11:57 PM
Okay, thanks, topic please. Only further posts if somebody wants to answer the trivia question I’ve posted. I’ll give it 24 hours though and then release it if nobody can answer, since it seems to be a stumper.

So its your go Agent.

Hrm, okay, been a while since I did this. I’ll try not to make it too obscure… Well, all right. Name any instance of a grammatical error within the game’s script. Unlike with FFVII, which is riddled with grammatical / Engrish errors, there are only five known ones within FFVIII.
Oh man. I know there was one near the beginning of the game but I can’t remember when it was! I remember because after reading it I thought to myself "how in the hell did I miss this?"
I feel like at least one of them is related to the Obel Lake sidequest… can’t think of any right now…
Agent0042
09-09-2009, 12:12 AM
Well, you are right about that, Zak…
FF1WithAllThieves
09-09-2009, 02:24 AM
You brought up something interesting, Agent; when I read your question, I thought of several FFVII examples immediately, but I can’t think of one for FFVIII. Much more polished translations. I’ll have to think about this.
Shadow mage

Hey is Quistis’ line "There seem to have been some rumors flying around since yesterday" IIRC she misses out the ‘s’ on ‘seem’. I cant remember too well. But its what i can recall for now.
Agent0042
09-09-2009, 10:34 AM
No, sorry, that line was correct and she included the second "s."

Yeah, you got it. That mistake is fixed in some releases, but that’s definitely one of them.
Here are the others:
"Perhaps we should’ve made contact with the the outside and shared our vast knowledge."
"They’re kind gesture just came out weird, that’s all. But at least they tried. I think overall, it was a decent, heartfelt welcome."
"…You’re last ‘Help me’?"

There is a cutscene in the game that you can’t see unless Rinoa is in your party. At which time does this take place and what happens in the cutscene?
Agent0042
09-12-2009, 11:23 PM
It’s the Balamb Garden sequence when the Garden becomes mobile. When Cid tells you to go take a look outside and you get to see Rinoa and the birds flying by and the tune "Blue Sky" plays.

That’s weird, I thought I posted a question. Anyways, what is Squall’s unspoken response when Flo states ""We believe that any problems can be settled by discussion. If you reach a mutual understanding, there is no need to fight."
Word for word, please.
Isn’t it "You can’t reason with these people?"

"Perhaps we should’ve made contact with the the outside and shared our vast knowledge."
"They’re kind gesture just came out weird, that’s all. But at least they tried. I think overall, it was a decent, heartfelt welcome."
"…You’re last ‘Help me’?"
The blue-faced whispers "Some of us just say the opposite of what we mean."
Your go, paarish, if you want it.
I’m just wondering, maybe I’m missing something, but I don’t see what’s wrong with any of those phrases with the exception of the "Help Me" one. What’s wrong with the others?
Agent0042
09-15-2009, 08:32 PM
First one– repeated "the."
Second one– Grammatically incorrect "They’re" (They are)– it should be "Their"
Fourth one– Should be "The blue-faced rock" and not simply "The blue-faced"
Oh wow, don’t know why that went over me, I read the sentences over and over… heh.
I think the last one about the "blue faced" is kind of weak, wouldn’t really call it a mistake.
Agent0042
09-16-2009, 01:13 AM
It is when you consider that all of the other ones in that area say "the red-faced rock" or "the green-faced rock," etc.

Sorry about that, I was drifting yesterday reading quickly. Thats what I get for procrastinating. And Agent your sig should be done today, it’s a little difficult since the pics are smaller than I’m used to. I figure you’ll see this so PM me if you have any questions
Free question to whoever wants it.
Meltigemini
09-18-2009, 12:24 AM
I think Buel and Bomb are both right… each boss card can come from two different monsters and I thought of both of those myself.
Anyway… free question.
Most visible draw points refill while hidden ones turn blue and don’t refill. Where can you find a visible draw point that doesn’t refill? (obvious assumption that you’re not using move-find)
Oh god… never played the game with Move-Find aside from before obtaining it.
That’s a very good question. I thought all of them (except one on the world map) refilled. I’m going to guess at the draw point in the library of Balamb Garden.
Shadow mage
09-18-2009, 08:33 AM
Yeah I can Only think of the Esuna drawpoint in Balamb Garden Library.
Meltigemini
09-19-2009, 11:30 AM
Yeah, that’s the one. IDX got it first. ๐
Haha! Hell yeah!
Uh, free question.
Renegade-X
09-21-2009, 10:31 PM
Wasn’t there that Full-Life draw point in the orphanage that didn’t refill too? I remember always going there and always checking the draw point but never getting anything after the first go, so I recall.
Agent0042
09-24-2009, 01:47 AM
All right, I guess I’ll take the freebie…
When the group was breaking into occupied Balamb and they needed to get past the soldier who wanted them to tell him info about Ellone, what was the excuse that Squall gave as to why they should be allowed inside?
Rin: Ah, how is your progress with our language?
Tidus: None too shabby! Check this out! "Hela du saad oui." ("Nice to meet you.")
Rin: Just repeating what I’ve said is not talking, now. But your pronunciation’s quite passable. You’ve been studying, I see.
Shadow mage
09-26-2009, 11:52 PM
I thought Squall just said he knew info. about Ellone.
Agent0042
09-27-2009, 01:51 AM
Sorry, not what I’m looking for. The soldier specifically orders Squall to tell her who she is, at which point Squall gives a bullshit excuse as to why they should be allowed in that nevertheless somehow manages to satisfy the stupid soldier.
I think you might have stumped me. I can’t think of anything :(.
Agent0042
09-27-2009, 04:41 AM
Okay, well, if nobody can get it by let’s say, sometime tomorrow afternoon / early evening, I’ll start posting hints.
I see no hints yet :mad:!
Agent0042
09-27-2009, 11:32 PM
Hey, I said "sometime tomorrow afternoon / early evening." Anyways, the first part of Squall’s response is "Kind of, but…" and right before the soldier challenges him directly, he says "You said the town was off-limits… … Does that mean we can’t deliver a message either?"
I know the part in the story but I can’t remember anything about the conversation :(. And this isn’t something I can just guess at and hope it’ll be right either.
Darn.
Agent0042
09-29-2009, 10:55 AM
All right, the excuse that Squall gave was that they needed to get inside the town to confirm something.
Freebie to anyone who wants it.
Renegade-X

Ah damn, I am a week late, I knew that one!
Since you did, why don’t you come up with a new question?
balthu
10-21-2009, 12:00 PM
Probably has been already said but what is Seifers "The List" where he orders Quistis to be added?
You know, I don’t think I ever knew. I don’t think the game even says what it is because I don’t recall it being mentioned again.
Shadow mage
10-21-2009, 11:32 PM
Isnt that list the "Tough-nut-to crack" list. I think he mentions it in Desert Prison.
balthu
10-24-2009, 12:17 PM
It would probably be found in Ultimania. Anyone knows japanese? ๐
Agent0042
10-24-2009, 12:43 PM
This question has been asked before, I think possibly even by me. It’s generally accepted that "The List" refers to the "tough-nut-to-crack list." That is what you meant to be the correct answer, isn’t it, balthu?
balthu
10-29-2009, 12:24 PM
Yes that’s what i meant. ^^ Sry bout that, but over 70 pages so i figured i’d just go with it rather than browsing every page.

11-01-2009, 04:25 AM
When Squall is being interrogated/tortured in prison about the true purpose of SeeD, you get the options "Just let me die" or "I have to live, I’ll lie".
If you choose to live, what is the story Squall tells to the guard so he stops electrocuting him?
Shadow mage
11-01-2009, 09:12 AM
Something to do with seeds growing into flowers.
That SeeD was created to plant flowers throughout the world to end conflict?
jewess crabcake
11-01-2009, 10:22 PM
That SeeD was created to plant flowers throughout the world to end conflict?
I think it was sowing the Seed of Peace, And while the world was in peace SeeD would be activated as the sorceress’s personal military.
Agent0042
11-02-2009, 12:48 AM
It’s one of my favorite moments from the game, actually. Squall responds "Flowers…" and then when the guy presses him for more information he says that seeing flowers saps people’s will to fight. "Then, we invade…"

Since you gave the most detailed answer, it’s your turn, Agent.
Agent0042
11-02-2009, 04:44 AM
Ah, mellifluous tupperware can go ahead and have it if he wants. His answer was first in and he was correct in the essentials.
I haven’t played this game in a while so I can’t really think of a good one. So I’ll ask an easy question:
What did the elder in Shumi Village present Squall and co. as a gift and what was the meaning behind it?
And please, call me IDX :D.
balthu
11-04-2009, 09:47 AM
The gift of "nothing" by showing them his hand. The real meaning was that the elder knew it wasn’t going to impress them and saw the same look on Squall’s eyes as Lagunas and wanted to make them feel welcomed, only it came out weirdly. Touche.
balthu
11-04-2009, 09:48 AM
K, my turn. What are all the hints that suggest Laguna as Squall’s father?
And again, i don’t know if this has already been asked..
Q-Tip Trepe
11-17-2009, 06:50 PM
That’s too subjective to be a question.
Shadow mage
11-17-2009, 10:15 PM
Yea, nobody has bothered answering it since it was asked DX.
Agent0042
11-18-2009, 02:20 AM
The basic set of hints that are acknowledged as pointing to the parenthood are the Moombas reacting to Squall as if he were Laguna (moombas sense by their blood), the water-themed names of various characters (Squall, Laguna, Raine), Laguna’s carrying Squall’s Triple Triad card, Squall always assuming the role of Laguna in the flashbacks and the comments from Kiros and Ward that Squall looks like his mother, but he should be glad he doesn’t really look like his father.
According to the times given in-game, how many years ago was it that Esthar sealed itself off from the world and the worldwide signal interference began?
Smarty
11-18-2009, 04:05 PM

Choose one.
Shadow mage
11-18-2009, 11:14 PM
I always thought it was 17 cuz i know i saw that number one time i played the game.
Agent0042
11-18-2009, 11:27 PM
I have to give it to Shadow mage. Should’ve been more decisive, Smarty.

11-23-2009, 10:18 PM

No its okay Agent, you can take it if you want.
Agent0042
11-24-2009, 05:11 AM
Okay… let’s see… assuming you did everything possible right in the Missile Base mission, what is it that finally gives Selphie and her party away as intruders?
7alentine
11-29-2009, 07:57 AM
Sorry about my other question BTW, the answer WAS Occult Fan III + Megalixir.
Agent0042
I believe it is the salute Selphie gives the Base Leader? She does it wrong and he’s like "HAHAHA WRONG SALUTE" and attacks you.
Argus Zephyrus
11-29-2009, 09:44 AM
Isn’t it that Selphie and the others give themselves away purposely even if you do everything right?
I found this point in the game interesting, so saved right before it after a restart and went through it several times to see the possible results.
You are given a choice I think whether you want to fight youe way through or try and sneak around. I can’t remember but I do know that 7alentine is right with the salute.
Agent0042
11-29-2009, 10:54 PM
Yep, 7alentine got it. The "proper" way to do the mission is to sneak around, which will give you an increase in your SeeD rank. But eventually they are found out because of the incorrect salute.

he created a toy? i know he made the Odine Binding items, the Junction system, and the Ellone Imitation system but i dont know about any toys…
Agent0042
12-02-2009, 08:04 AM
He referred to the Ellone system specifically as being a "toy" (his word) because it wasn’t actually really working yet, but he knew that in the future it would become an impressive machine. However, I’m disqualifying this question because it was FF1WithAllThieves’s turn and it wasn’t fair for Renegade to say he was "bumping" the thread when less than a day had gone since FF1’s answer was certified as correct. Next question goes to FF1WithAllThieves and let’s give it at least 48 hours this time before declaring him to not be around.

Oh my, how moronic, last time I checked, this was a trivia thread that didn’t have any ‘turn’ rules. You know, it goes like this if you didn’t know, someone asks something, someone answers, you move on and anyone can ask, I don’t know where you adopted these(or this) "rule" where the person who got it right had to answer or go next, since this was an open Final Fantasy Vlll trivia to begin with. Also, you’re not the creator of this thread and there are no rules on the first page of this thread, so what you say about these rules are pointless and nulled.
But if you need clarification, the word ‘bump’ is subjective and differs from person to person. I call a bump when something goes unanswered for at least 10 hours, if you check the time stamps, it was almost a day between my post and the post before mines.
Continuing on, I’ll repost my question since it is a legit question to begin with and it went unanswered; What was the toy’s name that Dr Odine creates and what did it do. I’m specifically looking for the name he gave it and what it does, which the latter half is easier thanks to Agent’s post.
Agent0042
12-03-2009, 01:04 AM
I might not be the creator of the thread, but I am a moderator for this section and while that rule may not have been originally in place, sometimes rules can evolve and it does seem to have become the generally accepted custom to allow the person who got the correct answer to post the next question. However, I’ll go ahead and allow this one, since FF1WithAllThieves doesn’t seem to be interested in posting a question.

i’ll ask a question.
How many potential endings are there to the encounter with PuPu and what items do you receive each time?
There are 2 possible endings (I prefer to call them outcomes but whatever).
1. When he asks for Elixers, you give it to him. Because you’re feeling generous and have plenty to spare (or have easy access to them through one of your "connections") and in return, you get his PuPu card.
2. When he asks for Elixers, YOU KILL THE BASTARD BECAUSE IT’S A TOUGH WORLD! IF YOU WANT ELIXERS, THEN YOU GOTTA EARN THEM!! THIS SHIT AIN’T CHEAP, SUCKA!! Then you get the Accelerator item and no card.
7alentine

After encountering the UFO at Winhill Bluffs, Mandy Beach (South of Timber), Kashkabald Desert and Trabia Penisula, head back to where Balamb Garden once was (Alcauld Plains), you’ll encounter Pupu. The two outcomes are:
First: He asks for 5 Elixirs. Give them to him and he will give you the Pupu Triple Triad Card.
Second: You fight him, and get a Accelerator.
In short, what mellifluous tupperware said.
(I just completed the ‘Alien Encounter’ in FFVIII today. I saved before the encounter in Alcauld Plains, to check the outcome. They are only two outcomes.)

You know, I’m thinking you hacked the game to add a third outcome :mad:!
Back in the day, I’ve beaten this game religiously (too bad my memory sucks when it comes to the finer details of the game) and I’ve never heard of anything else besides the two outcomes me and Xiahou Dun have already stated. I’m sure Agent might know the answer (if there really is more than two) when he decides to answer, but I’m almost positive there is no more.

2 – You can kill him and receive an Accelerator
3 – You can devour him and your character will receive a +1 Speed stat increase.

I just had another look, both on the Final Fantasy Wikia and in the guidebook. I’m not discounting that. However the actual Alien Encounter itself, both in the guidebook and on other sites, specifically state that there’s only TWO outcomes/rewards for this event. I refer to the following examples taken from their relevant sources/sites:
Taken from FF Compendium:
PuPu
A cute widdle alien what has lost his way and got stuck on earth. The end result of a convoluted UFO quest which results in either you giving him Elixirs and him giving you his PuPu Card, or you killing him and getting a neat item instead.
Taken from Final Fantasy Wikia:
PuPu is an enemy in Final Fantasy VIII. It appears in the crater where Balamb Garden once stood once the UFO? enemy has been destroyed.
When dealing with PuPu, the player has two options: either give it five Elixirs, or attack and kill it. By giving it Elixirs, PuPu thanks the player, and they receive the unique PuPu card. The PuPu card can be turned into a Hungry Cookpot, an item that can only be received through Card refining method, and teaches a GF the Devour command.
If the player attacks PuPu, it drops an Accelerator instead. The Accelerator is a relatively useful item, and can be used to teach a GF the Auto-Haste ability. However, it can be obtained through other means, whereas the PuPu card and the Hungry Cookpot are one of a kind.
Taken from Gamewinners.com:
PuPu: Look for UFOs to pass by during a battle in the following places (you must have Diablos’ "Enc-None"):
* 1. Outside Winhill Town
* 2. Mandy Beach, northeast of Timber
* 3. Heath Peninsula, east of Trabia Garden
* 4. Kashkabald Desert.
* After sighting all four, fly the Ragnarok to the rocky cliffs above the Chocobo Shrine. Encounter a UFO and defeat it. Then, head to the crater where Balamb Garden used to be. You will encounter a PuPu. Feed him five elixirs and you will be rewarded. Its only a level 5 card, but is definitely the hardest card to find.
I could list more info from other sites if needed, but I trust my point has come across.
If you want to talk about technicalities, then ok, the speed boost is fine… but officially there are two outcomes only.
Taken from the guide itself:
Now return to Balamb and explore the area where Balamb Garden was once positioned (Alcauld Plains). Here you’ll encounter the alien known as Pupu. The alien will ask you for an Elixir. Use an Elixir on the Alien, and it will continue to ask you for more Elixirs. Give the Pupu a total of five Elixirs and it will give you the Pupu card.
You can fight the Alien if you want to win an Accelerator, however, giving the Pupu Elixirs is the only way to get its one-of-a-kind card.
It would seem to me, that the mainstream answer to the question are the answers mellifluous tupperware and myself stated. Still, if you want to be technical about it, BOTH answers are true, from a certain point of view.

Anyway, the Headmaster of Balamb Garden is Cid Kramer. Galbadia Garden’s Headmaster is named Martine though (or Dondoona in the Japanese version – extra points if you can name what that is a reference to ;)).

Well XD you can come off a little….punch in the face. ๐ But I don’t think it warrants that reaction. By the way the Headmaster’s name is Cid! Yaaaay!
Anyway, you can call it a technicality if you want, but it’s still an aspect of the game. The point really isn’t the speed boost and whether or not it’s effective, it’s about the actual opportunity to Devour it to begin with.
I stand by my earlier post, the main reason the guides and those websites don’t have it listed is because it’s relatively pointless to do, as you can use the Pupu card or even the Accelerator more effectively.

12-10-2009, 03:48 PM
I admit freely I’m blunt and to the point. I can’t be bothered with ‘dancing around’ when faced with a topic. If that’s a crime, then lock me away.
True it is an aspect of the game, I’m not denying that. All I was doing was providing evidence to back my information, that’s all. Is there anything wrong in that?
In the end, it’s up to what the player themselves wants to do, how they want to play it. To be honest, when I first played FFVIII (and even FFVII and every other FF game I have) I played them with no guides, no information from game websites etc. I played them bereft of any helping information, as the game was intended initially to be played. After the first playthrough, then I’ll look for any info (either on websites, guidebooks, etc) and then play again, glancing at the info if needed.
Granted I probably came off as a arrogant tosspot in that response, but that was not my intention and I apologise if it was interpreted that way.
Seru_Kai
12-11-2009, 08:49 AM
I’m not knocking the bluntness, just giving an outside opinion. ๐
As for the gameplay you mentioned, I’m the same way. I play through a game, usually without going off the storyline path, without any outside help. On a second+ playthrough, usually months afterward, I usually buy the guide for a collection sort of thing, and it comes in handy when doing the sidequests or getting items you can miss.
Also, I’m not a big fan of stat maxing, so Devour and Morph (VII) aren’t really attractive to me, and I had no idea that that was a third way for this whole Pupu thing. From now on we should declare a rule (that seems obvious now) to give exact questions (as in there are three ways I’m looking for) along with exact answers. It should help avoid most of these arguments, which are opinion based as not everyone even thinks to Devour the end of a sidequest.

Xiahou Dun I think you owe me an apology.
You still haven’t answered me as to why I owe you apology earlier, yet at this point in time, I think it’s you who owe me an apology. In regards to your inane question, here’s my answer.
Balamb Garden’s headmaster is Cid Kramer, the husband of Edea Kramer who ran the Orphanage most of the core characters in the party, were at when young (Squall Leonhart, Zell Dincht (before he was adopted by the Dincht family), Irvine Kinneas, Quistis Trepe, Selphie Tilmitt, Seifer Almasy and Ellone (granted the last two aren’t technically party members, with Seifer only as a Guest)).
Galbadia Garden’s headmaster is Martine, also known as Dodonna a obvious reference to the Rebel General of the same name in the first Star Wars movie.
Trabia Garden’s headmaster wasn’t mentioned in the game.
And all that without googling either… my god, is this because I actually do recall the information from my hazy memory? Or, and much more likely, due to the fact that I’ve just recently played the game again…. for the umpteenth time.
Awesome answer Xiahou Dun! That little Star Wars reference they threw in sure was sneaky too!
I didn’t know that. Maybe because I don’t like Star Wars.
You can blame the nerds. I punched one last week actually because I said Star Wars sucks and this guy wouldn’t stop yelling about how wrong I was in my ear. I told him to back away but he didn’t listen.

Woaaaaa, that’s a really tough one :O It’s been so long for me playing that part, I don’t recall.. I’m gonna go with Enkidoh and guess that at least a few character names from past FF’s pop up from time to time? Boy I don’t even remember now :O

"IAMALIVE" (I am alive), "IWILLNEVERLETYOUFORGETABOUTME" (I will never let you forget about me), and "BRINGMEBACKTHERE" (Bring me back there). The signal distorted by Adel’s tomb in space and responsible for the worldwide radio interference. IMO, those words are Adel’s, resonating through her tomb and spiraling back to the planet lol.

Well, I haven’t played the PSX version since 2000-01, and only in the last few weeks started again on PC so I can’t really say for sure. I do know I had to use screen capture to study the image. When that scene played out, I don’t know why but something caught my eye hence the screen capture. It was only after looking at it for a while, as well as looking online about it, I came up with those responses.

It sure must be. Personally I can’t know because I haven’t played the PC version. As for PSX, I started a new game just to find out whether there actually is something and from what I could see it’s just random words on the screen. Either that or I’m blind.

Ya, same for me too. I never was into the tiny details of anything except when I’m making music because, like any person doing their own work, everything must be PERFECT!!

There are any number of secrets within all Final Fantasy games, some more difficult to extract than others. We could probably go on about them for a fair while, but that’s not really the topic. We still have an active trivia question, so let’s get on with it– Enikdoh, if you’re reading, would you go ahead and post a hint or award to someone who has posted one of the partial answers? (Personally, I don’t know the answer.)
(Oh, and P.S. — part of the reason why the message is just plain so difficult to see is because it’s constantly scrolling when you see it within the game. So, really, unless you’re very good at deciphering that sort of thing, it’s very hard to make it out if you’re looking at it in-game.)
Enkidoh
12-17-2009, 10:17 AM
Wow, that is spooky. I knew the TV interference was caused by Adel’s Tomb, but I always believed it was the tomb’s technology itself that was the case, and not Adel’s magic ( I seem to recall a technician on the Lunar Base stating that the tomb uses an immense magic suppression field which is so powerful, it affects communications on the planet below). Anyway, that is an awesome find XD. ๐
*dons anorak and engineer cap* ๐
As for my question, both Shadow Mage and XD came close, but they only stated some of the routes available. In total, there are six separate train routes on the Western Continent (although one of those is no longer running):
Timber – Balamb
Timber – Dollet via East Academy
Timber – Esthar Border/Great Salt Lake via Horizon Bridge and Fisherman’s Horizon (trains are no longer running on this line by the time the game takes place and is abandoned.)
Timber – Deling City via Desert area/D District Prison
Timber – Deling City (direct route)
Deling City – Galbadia Garden
Incidentally, only trains on the Timber to Balamb and Timber to Dollet (but only as far as East Academy) lines have to be ridden on to progress the storyline – the rest are optional. Note also that the Timber Owl’s personal train doesn’t count in this list. ๐
Anyway, the next question is open to either XD or Shadow Mage, seeing as how they both came close. Whoever gets in first feel free to post. ๐

Gilgamesh’s attacks are Zantetsuken, Excalibur, Excalipur (Excalipoor) and Masamune. Zantetsuken is exactly the same as Odin’s version. Excalibur does strong non-elemental damage, whereas Excalipur (Excalipoor) does just 1 damage. Masamune does high non-elemental damage.

The way I see it, a good question is the one that can’t be answered with the help of Google. Why don’t you pay a visit to the FFXII Trivia and try to google the answer of the current question there? I’m pretty sure you can’t.
Now as for XD’s question: He either expects to remember every single component of every ultimate weapon of every character in the game (Highly unlikely if you ask me) or he thinks we’re stupid enough not to use Google to find the answer to that ridiculous question.

I don’t know, we seem to have the same 10 people in all the trivia sections, seems pretty wasteful to sit here when no one is going to post it. I do think questions like these should be excluded, seeing as you need picture perfect memory, have a save game when able to customize (technically cheating), or use google/strategy guide (certainly cheating).
The main problem with a question like this is that when someone rattles off the answers in pristine form, everyone would think they cheated in some way. There have been some questions (in every trivia thread) that really test information you’d gain only from playing the game, and not by google. There have also been plenty of questions that were over the top on the scale of technical (this question), difficulty, or reseach-required.
I say XD just asks a new question, and in the future no questions like these (at least not for every character at the same time).

I’ll take a crack at the new one, though I’m not sure if my answer is what you are looking for:
Renewable – Spells will regenerate at the draw point every so often and you can draw from it again
Non-Renewable – Spells at these draw points will not regenerate, you can only draw from them once
Hidden – These draw points can only be seen if you have Move/Find equipped, or in the case of ones on the World Map, can’t be seen at all. They can be renewable or non-renewable.

Using the Card Mod ability to refine cards into items needed for it’s construction (the Minotaur card can be modified into 1 for 10 Adamantine), as well as/or using Tonberry GF’s Level Up ability to get certain monsters at the required level for item drops (IE the ‘Level Up’ ability) on Blitz’s near the Centra plains (Near the forest shaped like a Hammer I mainly found them, but also in the general forested area) for Laser Cannon/Energy Crystal drops (one Energy crystal can be refined into I think 10 Pulse Ammo, and a Laser cannon can be refined into 5 or so), Blue Drago/Hexadragon/Grendel for Dragon Fang drops.
Q-Tip Trepe
01-01-2010, 05:12 PM
Is he forgetting the amounts? You need 12 pulse ammo, 4 Dragon Fangs, and 1 adamantite. This means 3 Laser Cannons from Belhelmels on the plains near Galbadia (5 Pulse Ammo each). Dragons fangs are gotten from Grendels in the forest separating Timber from Galbadia at low levels (under 20 i think) and Adamantine is from the adamantoises north of Dollet. erm. High level ones I think, above 30?
Then you synth the weapon, of course. So you need 2000 gil.

Smarty
01-01-2010, 05:43 PM
Actually I wasn’t thinking about Belhelmels at all.
T-Rexaurs in Balamb Garden drop dragon fangs if they are lvl 1-20. So you have to get it from them. Grendels would also be on the table, however you need to be below lvl 20 for them to drop them. And that’s not possible since the very moment you enter the only place they can be found on disc 1, the 2nd Laguna sequence initiates, for which you’ll need to be at least lvl 30.
Except now that I think about it, the only Elastoids on Disc one are in Laguna’s dream, and that’s before you can have Diablos to be able to Mug from them, right?
Nope. Cid gives you the magic lamp once you leave Garden to go to Timber. Beat Diablos immediatly and have him start learning Mug. It will take a while but it is possible. After that you need to level up so that the Elastoids in the 2nd Laguna sequence are lvl 30 or higher, so you can steal laser cannons from them.
After that you can use Card mod to refine 10 adamantites from the Minotaur Card, when you get it after beating Brothers. By the time you reach Galbadia you’ll have the Lionheart.
Ammounts weren’t really the issue here. I would’ve given the question to anyone who described the process correctly.
This is just one way. Belhelmels/Grendels/Adamantoise would work too, I suppose, although I haven’t tried.
What 7alentine was missing was the levels at which the monsters had to be to drop the specific items. Q-Tip Trepe mentioned the levels. So I think I’m gonna give it to him. Your question Q-Tip Trepe.

And Xiahou Dun, sorry, but not sure what you mean. You mentioned using Tonberry’s Level Up ability / visiting Centra region and you definitely can’t do either on Disc 1.

Rounded to the nearest integer.
Darth Revan

I may be wrong here, but as far as I know Curse Spikes don’t refine into an item to make a Holy War. They can be used for Quistis to learn LV?Death and with the ST Med-RF/Tool-RF/ST Mag-RF into Remedy/Dark Matter/10 Pain.
To create a Holy War, need 10 Holy War-trial’s and used the Med LV Up, to get a Holy War. Or use the Card Mod ability and refine the Gilgamesh card to get 10 Holy Wars.

The Final Fantasy VIII Official Strategy Guide by David Cassady, states that to create a Holy War by refining items, you need 10 Holy War-trials and the ‘Med LV UP’ ability to make one Holy War.
You better look again real closely because we don’t want to be looking like bafoons again. You have read every possible…area that deals with obtaining/refining/making items?
Darth Revan
01-03-2010, 04:20 AM
Unless Q-Tip Trepe meant to refine them via the whole process of refinement from Curse Spike –> Dark Matter –> Shaman Stone –> Hero Trial –> Hero –> Holy War-trial –> Holy War, which is a long process. Need to have Doomtrain at 100 to change 10 Shaman Stones into 1 Hero Trial. So… 100 Curse Spikes to refine into one Dark Matter. 1 Dark Matter can be refined into a Shaman Stone. 10 Shaman Stones to refine into a Hero-trial. You then need 10 Hero-trials to refine into one Hero, then 10 of them to refine into 1 Holy War-trial then 10 of them to refine into a Holy War.
So, 1000 Curse Spikes to get 10 Shaman stones, and one Hero Trial. 10,000 Curse Spikes to get 10 Hero trials. 100,000 to get 10 Hero. 1,000,000 to get 10 Holy War-trial.
To get one Holy War… via this method, you’d need 10,000,000 Curse Spikes. Give or take.
But seriously, who’d take that route?
But you didn’t answer the question. How many Tri-Faces would you need to mug?

Hmm… a fuckin lot. That’s also taking into account on sometimes you may not get anything, as there were sometimes I’d use Mug and got nothing (Though… that could be the result of my PC copy being screwed up). I’d guestimate at least double the amount needed to get a Holy War, that’s taking into account of being able to mug at least one curse spike from a Tri-Face per battle and succeeding, while in another battle you use Mug, and get nothing.
Lol I didn’t know what to call it and everything I came up with didn’t sound right. So I pulled a Squall and said "whatever" to myself :P.
Darth Revan
01-03-2010, 04:33 AM
I’ll post a guess anyway… 10,000,000 Tri-Faces mugged and getting a single Curse Spike successfully each time you Mug one (Yes, I know you can mug more than one at a time but w/e. If you can mug 10 from one, then it’d be like 1,000,000 Tri-Faces you have to Mug. So somewhere between 1,000,000 and 10,000,000 is my official guess).
Seriously though… who the fuck would spend all that time to do so, when there are other simpler and faster ways to get them?

Nothing wrong with the Xbox 360. Has some great titles, but I’m not gonna get caught up in the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 debate (that’s what started the whole ‘thing’ between myself and another member who I won’t name).
Anywayz, my question:
Squall’s initial SeeD rank is determined via his Judgement during the Fire Cavern Event and his Conduct in the Dollet Mission. To get the maximum 100 points for both events, how much ‘Remaining Time’ do you need for both?

Seru_Kai is correct regarding the Fire Cavern event (0:00-0:07 to be precise), and for the Dollet mission, to get the maximum amount, 100pts, need to have 25:00+ remaining.
If you get to the beach with 20 Minutes remaining, you’ll get 70pts 7alentine. Anywayz, Seru_Kai, as you got the Fire Cavern part right, you won the question. Next question to ask is yours.
Edit: (off topic response to Seru_Kai) That’s ok, everyone has their opinion about which one they like the best. There’s nothing on the PS3 which interests me, and as the Knights of the Old Republic games came out on the Xbox, that’s what drew me to Microsoft’s console lol

Fleeing battle also decreases your rank. Basically being slow, dying, sucking, getting hit a lot etc etc.
Whatever. I give up, I really don’t know.
Seru_Kai
01-04-2010, 09:39 AM
Hahaha yea, shit question really.
As far as I know, dying, being slow during timed events/storyline, fleeing from battle, making bad decisions involving dialogue could diminish the ranking.
I’ll leave it open to whoever wants it.
cheema201
01-04-2010, 10:31 AM
ok i have a question..
Pretty extremely easy i think..
What is the easiest way to take advantage of limit breaks early in the game?? by early i mean the first disc.
Seru_Kai
01-04-2010, 10:34 AM
You could use junctioning to purposefully put your health in the yellow ‘critical’ status, being able to use limit breaks freely.
I don’t know if any form of aura is available in disc one.
cheema201
01-04-2010, 11:40 AM
exactly right… i used to refine tents into curaga’s on disc one to take my health up to around the 3000 mark. then put myself purposefully in the yellow. Which is of no danger because you can easily survive. and destroy lives with constant limits
Seru_Kai
01-04-2010, 07:28 PM
Oh yea, good times abusing that system.
I just woke up, and I certainly can’t think of a good question to ask, so I’ll leave it open.
Smarty
01-04-2010, 08:37 PM
I’ll take it then:
Quote question:
In the orphanage Irvine mentions he has better memory than the rest of them because he has never used GF’s before. Quistis responds to that saying what?
Hint: Anyone who wathced Spoony’s review should know this.
cheema201
01-04-2010, 11:37 PM
Quistis: "Well fuck you Irvine, We have the power of gods at our hands at the loss of our memory! You couldn’t even hit Edea when you had an open shot. The fact that she used her magic is irrelevant, you should have remembered that fact and used a bullet that could penetrate her magic shield. You are a douche bag."
Something along those lines
FF1WithAllThieves
01-05-2010, 12:41 AM
Looks like Cheema took my first guess, but I’ll throw out another one.
I don’t remember her exact words, but Quistis states that it must be a rumor spread by anti-GF activists because Headmaster Cid would never allow the use of something so dangerous.
Smarty
01-05-2010, 07:31 AM
First of all:
Quistis: "Well fuck you Irvine, We have the power of gods at our hands at the loss of our memory! You couldn’t even hit Edea when you had an open shot. The fact that she used her magic is irrelevant, you should have remembered that fact and used a bullet that could penetrate her magic shield. You are a douche bag."
Something along those lines
This doesn’t even come close, although it would be awesome if it did.
Looks like Cheema took my first guess, but I’ll throw out another one.
I don’t remember her exact words, but Quistis states that it must be a rumor spread by anti-GF activists because Headmaster Cid would never allow the use of something so dangerous.
Actually she said something about GF-critics not activists but close enough. Your go.
Man, I kinda remember that part now :O I’m gonna go with FF1WithAllThieves’ answer (but if he’s right give it to him not me).
edit: HAHA, what timing!
cheema201
01-05-2010, 09:57 AM
I must have a different version of the game
FF1WithAllThieves
01-05-2010, 04:55 PM
Alright, here it goes:
Name all of the areas that start out with the "random" rule. Note that I’m referring to the areas that people refer to when you challenge them to card games (i.e. Timber is part of Galbadia).
Seru_Kai
01-05-2010, 09:44 PM
That start out with the random rule I only thought there were 1 or 2. My guesses would be Dollet and Fisherman’s Horizon? I know it’s easy to spread the rule, but I didn’t think there were that many places that forced you to play it when you initially get there (without purposefully changing the rules.
I remember walking to Dollet early in the game to get them to drop that damn random rule.
As for the areas they refer to in those places, I have no idea. World Maps/Territories are not my speciality.
Agent0042
01-06-2010, 12:13 AM
Dollet I know has it. Fisherman’s Horizon I believe actually doesn’t. I think there are two others and those are Centra region and Lunar Base.
FF1WithAllThieves
01-06-2010, 12:30 AM
Not all of the correct answers have been mentioned yet, and not every answer mentioned is correct; I won’t tell you anything else in case someone knows the full answer.
Edit: I thought someone would know this one, but it’s been a while now. If nobody gets it in 24 hours, I’ll give it to Agent because he was closer.
Seru_Kai
01-08-2010, 09:52 PM
Can we get the answer? I’ve gotten the urge to replay VIII solely to play the card game from the start…..but I’ve been able to keep that urge at bay so far.
Edit: Oops, didn’t see the time of your edit at first! ๐
I remember that Trabia has it.
Trabia, Dollet, Lunar, and Centra?
Hah, I’m remembering the places I tried to abolish it from…
EDIT: It’s been well over 24 hours since you posted last… so if I’m right does Agent still get it?

I missed that too, it’s only been a few hours over that deadline. I don’t remember playing too much in Trabia myself, but it does have a random rule, I remember having to get a specific card and being frustrated at the random rule…:(

Zak is correct. Agent had just missed Trabia. You can have it, Zak.

Yeah, go ahead and take it– I never saw the edit and you definitely got it, so go ahead.
Alright…
In most games, "Blue Magic" is skills used by enemies and learned from them. But in this, Quistis’s Blue Magic is simply from items and don’t require encountering a monster with said attack. But, most of her Blue Magic is used by various enemies, but what I’m asking is, which one(s) aren’t used by ANY enemies throughout the game? I’m not gonna say how many there are.
Get exactly all of them, no more, no less.
Also, just to clarify, "Lv?Death" I would obviously count any Lv # Death used by an enemy as that.
Meltigemini
01-10-2010, 04:14 PM
I can think of two:
Laser Eye – Funguar and Belhelmel do use similar attacks but they are tecnically nameless
Fire Breath – There are a lot of dragons and a lot of different breath attacks, but none are actually "Fire Breath"
Think that’s all…
I think I’ll give you this one!
Technically the answer I was looking for was only Fire Breath, because I did count Belhelmel’s "Counter Laser Eye" as Laser Eye, because that’s basically the same thing, almost, but that’s arguable and you mentioned it anyway. What Funguar move are you thinking of?
Anyway, your question.
Meltigemini
01-13-2010, 01:54 AM
Now I think about it the Funguar just has a very generic looking laser attack, I think anyway, been a long time since my last playthrough. Belhelmel was the main one anyway. :p
Ok, this is probably an easy one… you’re fighting a low level Wendigo. You draw and cast its only magic it holds on it. What is the next move it will use?
Is it that one where he throws you in the air?
Darth Revan
01-21-2010, 10:08 AM
The last response was on the 13th of this month, Meltigemini I think it’s time you reveal if IDX got your question right or if he was incorrect and post the answer. Been long enough now.
Smarty
01-23-2010, 08:30 AM
So uh are we gonna keep this going?
I agree. If somebody’s going to bother to ask a question, they need to stay current with the thread.
Meltigemini
01-23-2010, 04:42 PM
Sorry, been away a bit. Site was down when I tried to get here the other day.
The move I was thinking of was Power Bomb, which IDX did elude to, the magic you draw is Berserk and it always uses Power Bomb after that. Next question for IDX ๐
Good. Bout time. I probably would’ve stated the name if I remembered, but I’m working my way there playing FFVIII on my PSP (my 16gig memory stick came in finally :D!). Just got done doing the Dollet mission.
Anyways, free question to whoever wants it until I play the game again and remember a good majority about it. Otherwise, my questions would be both silly and easy.
Darth Revan
01-24-2010, 03:13 AM

FF1WithAllThieves is correct. Next question is yours.

FF1WithAllThieves
01-25-2010, 03:02 AM
Which magic spell junctions best to the speed stat?
Smarty
01-25-2010, 12:19 PM
Haste? I think that’s a little too obvious, but there isn’t any other one I can think of that would do a better job. I kept Hatse junctioned to speed through the entire game.
Agent0042
01-25-2010, 10:26 PM
I’m going to go with Triple. I seem to recall reading somewhere before (perhaps somewhere on here) that that actually does the best job of it, though I usually preferred to use Triple with something else.
FF1WithAllThieves
01-26-2010, 12:12 AM
Agent is correct. Triple junctions the best to speed, followed by Ultima, then Haste. Your go.
Agent0042
01-26-2010, 04:11 AM
All right… what is the first known mention you can find in the game of the possibility that use of GF can lead to memory loss?
Isn’t there a disclaimer about it in the study panel at the beginning?
Agent0042
01-26-2010, 05:22 AM
Yep, nice little disclaimer they put in for themselves in there. Your go!
Okay.
When’s the earliest access to Level 6 Boss Cards?
Meh, hopefully not too easy.

Ifrit’s cave place has Bombs, which can be carded into Krystas.

Oopsie. Well, an easy one in return. Who’s the only character in the game that you can actually win their Triple Triad card from?

Melti can have it. I’m having a hard time thinking of good trivia questions ๐
Meltigemini
01-29-2010, 01:15 AM
Me too ๐
Where do you fight a set battle (not a boss fight) but only if you haven’t already encountered one of the monsters in that battle already before you reach the point where the battle is set? Bonus points if you name the monster though not necessary I guess :p
I’m gonna guess it’s some kind of tutorial battle. Is it the one for Irvine’s Limit Break on a Thrustaevis?
honokasa
01-29-2010, 06:38 PM
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say in balamb gardens training area, and with a t-rexuar? That’s that only battle I can think of that matches what you’re describing ~_~
it’s been ages since I played VIII, but i’m gonna binge out on it when it comes to Europe on the PSN.
Well, there really isn’t a "set" battle with a T-Rexuar. He is a random encounter as far as I’m aware. I was going to say him too but I’m not so sure it is.
Meltigemini
01-30-2010, 01:12 AM
It is a tutorial battle yeah, though with Irvine if you don’t use him when you first get him he’ll just tell you about his limit break when you fight the Iguions (not the same enemy ;)) so I’m thinking of a different one.
You don’t actually have to fight a T-Rexaur, if you take the left path in the Training Center you won’t run into one.
frodo660
01-30-2010, 07:55 PM
i have absolutely no idea, but i’m very interested to find out.
I thought it could be the propogators on ragnarok because i know Rinoa learns Angel Wing. but i don’t think any of those battles were tutorial ones. hmmm
Enkidoh
01-31-2010, 12:25 PM
Is it against a Bomb in the Fire Cavern during the initial exam at the start of the game? I seem to recall Quistis giving Squall advice during at least one battle in that area so I can’t remember anymore. So it’s probably wrong. :p
Meltigemini
01-31-2010, 12:28 PM
Yeah, Bomb is right. ๐ If you haven’t already encountered any by the time you get to the end of the screen with the draw point, you get the set battle with two Bombs and two Red Bats. If you’ve already had the tutorial that battle isn’t there.
Enkidoh
01-31-2010, 03:11 PM
Heh, and to think I totally fluked that. :p
Anyway, now for my question (it should be an easy one).
Name the 3 GF’s that can be gained from the southern islands (Centra Ruins and nearby areas).
Enkidoh
02-01-2010, 01:02 AM
Got it in one. ๐
Odin and Tonberry from Centra Ruins and Cactaur from Cactaur Island (appropriately enough). Like I said, a real easy one. ๐
Anyway, IDX got it. ^^
Do I get extra points if I say that the Cactuar Island is actually technically part of Esthar and not Centra, region-wise? Same with Kashkabald Desert, the other area where you can encounter Cactuars on the east part of the Centra Islands… if you go to the menu, it says "Esthar – Kashkabald Desert" and I THINK it might say "Esthar – Cactuar Island", but it certainly doesn’t say Centra. Plus it’s right off the coast of that desert that’s part of Esthar, so it’s safe to assume that this is too.
Enkidoh
02-01-2010, 04:35 AM
To be honest, it’s been so long since I last played FFVIII that all I remembered about it was that Cactaur Island was ‘in the south’. So, that’s why I kind of grouped it in with Centra.
But anyway, good job picking that up. ๐ IDX still got the question though, so it’s his go. ๐
I wasn’t sure about Cactuar which is why I put the ? next to it. But it was the only one I can think of around that area so I put it up anyways :D.
When the party has their first "Laguna dream", what does Squall say that he dreamed of?
Pretty easy if you ask me ๐
Smarty
02-03-2010, 08:57 PM
A moron.
Enkidoh
02-03-2010, 11:44 PM
To be more precise, he dreamed that he ‘was a moron’. Which is kind of redundant due to the fact that he already was a moron. ๐

A moron.
So he dreamed of a moron?
To be more precise, he dreamed that he ‘was a moron’. Which is kind of redundant due to the fact that he already was a moron. ๐

Besides demotion to lesser rank, what is the standard punishment for troop incompetence in the Galbadian Army? (Hint: Galbadian soldiers often whine and complain about it during the game)
Meltigemini
02-13-2010, 12:19 AM
They don’t get paid for a (week? month? don’t think it’s ever stated) anyway they miss a paycheck.
They have to do push-ups?
Enkidoh
02-13-2010, 04:35 AM
Meltigemini got it. Basically, they lose a month’s pay, which seems a bit harsh. One of the soldiers on the Presidential Train loses something like three months worth of pay in five minutes simply because his CO is in a bad mood.
Anyway, Melti was right, so go ahead when you’re ready. ๐
Meltigemini
02-13-2010, 02:54 PM
Keeping with the same theme, and because I can’t think right now, what was that soldier on the presidential train going to spend his next pay on?
Enkidoh
02-14-2010, 05:24 AM
He wanted to buy his girlfriend a diamond ring and treat her to a romantic dinner to propose to her (in keeping with Valentine’s Day ;)).

Timber?
Enkidoh
02-18-2010, 09:33 AM
Nope. Next guess. ๐
Enkidoh
02-18-2010, 12:52 PM
Correct!
Or, more specifically, the bridge leading from the Dollet town square to the Communication Tower – you can get into random battles with Galbadian Soldiers, although you can’t go any further than the beginning of the next area after the bridge (a broken spider mech blocks the path up the mountainside beyond).
It’s still fun to run around on the bridge to get into fights with them though, just to unleash Doomtrain on the poor unsuspecting fools. ๐
Anyway, IDX got it, so your go. ๐
Sweet :D!
But I’m lazy and have to get ready for work so free question to whoever wants it :).

Okay.
If you miss certain GFs (generally ones that have to be drawn from bosses), they can be drawn a second time from the bosses in Ultimecia’s Castle. What GFs’ can be drawn and which bosses have them there?
FF1WithAllThieves
02-24-2010, 11:20 PM
I could name the GFs, but I have no idea which goes with which boss.
I could just answer by going to gamefaqs.com, but that’s cheating! Mainly because I get all the GFs before reaching that point so I never had to draw them from those bosses. So naturally, I wouldn’t know by memory.
Enkidoh
03-11-2010, 06:00 PM
Oh my goddess, I completely forgot about this thread!
As it’s been over three weeks without any concrete guesses, I may as well wind this question up. For those who are wondering, these are the GFs that can be drawn from the bosses in Ultimecia’s Castle and which bosses have them:
Siren – Tri-Point
Leviathan – Trauma
Pandemona – Red Giant
Carbuncle – Krysta
Cerberus – Gargantua
Alexander – Catoblepas
Eden – Tiamat
Anyway, I’m giving this away as a free question to whoever wants it. ๐
Renegade-X
03-12-2010, 10:29 PM
That was definitely a lot, I don’t recall ever having to draw them in the castle so I wouldn’t know at all.
Agent0042
03-13-2010, 12:52 AM
I guess I’ll take the freebie– when you arrive at Balamb Garden during the inter-Garden conflict, a member of the Garden Faculty asks Squall "Do you swear your allegiance to Garden Master NORG?" What are the two choices as to how to respond?
FF1WithAllThieves
03-17-2010, 05:41 AM
"Yes, for now", and "what’s going on?" Something like that.
Agent0042
03-18-2010, 02:57 AM
Close enough. It’s actually "I guess for now" and "I don’t get it," but seeing as nobody else was even attempting to answer, those are close enough. Go ahead with a question, if you want it.
FF1WithAllThieves
03-21-2010, 08:55 PM
We all know Squall has the highest natural hit% stat by far, so, just tell me simply who has the second-highest.
Enkidoh
03-22-2010, 05:28 AM
I’ll probably take a wild guess here and say Irvine (I was going to say Seifer, but he’s not in your party for very long). Otherwise, I have no idea.
Olde
03-22-2010, 05:44 AM
It depends on the weapon. For instance, Squall always has 255%, but Selphie also has 255% once you get the Strange Vision. If you’re talking about initial weapon hit-%, though, I have no clue.
FF1WithAllThieves
03-22-2010, 07:12 AM
Enkidoh is right, unless Selphie has the Strange Vision. In that case, Selphie wins, but otherwise, it goes to Irvine. So I’ll leave it up to the honor system: if you feel your answer was correct enough for you to deserve it, post a question. ‘Cause I think you probably both deserve it.
Olde
03-23-2010, 05:32 AM
I can’t think of anything at the moment, so Enkidoh can have it.
Enkidoh
03-24-2010, 02:25 AM

Anyway (this should be nice and easy):
What is the special parameter of the Cactuar GF’s ‘1000 Needles’ attack?
I know, but I’m having a hard time trying to word it out. Which totally sucks.
FF1WithAllThieves
03-24-2010, 06:03 AM
Every 10 levels (Cactuar’s level), the amount of damage it does increases by 1,000. So for level 30, it does 3,000, for level 6, it does 6,000, and for level 100, it does 100,000.
Enkidoh
03-24-2010, 12:34 PM
FF1 got it in one. ๐ Good job!
Post a question when you’re ready to go. ๐
For some reason, you made it seem rather easy to explain. When I was typing it just didn’t really make sense on what I was trying to say :(.
Olde
03-25-2010, 02:08 AM
So for level 30, it does 3,000, for level 6, it does 6,000, and for level 100, it does 100,000.
lol, 100,000 would be nice!
FF1WithAllThieves
03-28-2010, 07:03 PM
lol, 100,000 would be nice!

04-07-2010, 02:08 AM
Well, I know for a fact that it has appeared at least twice in FF games since FFVIII, in both FFX and FFXIII as swords for Tidus and Lightning, but I’m not sure if it’s appeared in any other FF game other than them (Dissidia and the KH games don’t count though because, well, they’re spin-offs :p).
Something tells me that it has also appeared in FF Tactics Advance and FFTA2, but I have no idea for sure though.

FFX, as a weapon for Tidus which has the ‘Double Overdrive’ ability (I remember as I deliberately went to get that weapon in a playthrough a few months ago).
FFXIII, as a weapon for Lightning I believe. Obtained via a later chapter or something…
FFTA, as a weapon for Paladins. I think for two other job classes, but not sure…
FF Dissidia, appears as Squall’s weapon during his EX mode. It increases attack by some obscene amount (50-70) as well as increases EX Force amount absorbed by 30% as well as giving Squall ‘Sneak Attack’.
Side note: I was told it’s appeared twice in the Kingdom Hearts series. In the first as ‘Lionheart’, and in the second under the name of ‘Sleeping Lion’. Don’t know how accurate that is though as I distrust the source (my cousin.).
So in answer to your question, 4 would suffice, but if you count the two times it can appear in Dissidia, ‘Lionheart’ has been replicated 5 times in 4 FF games since FFVIII.
@Neji666:
Before you can ask a question, you have to answer correctly the last question asked and wait for that person to say if you were correct and can post a answer.
This is easy, but it can be viewed as difficult if you don’t remember:
Besides saying his name, what was Squall’s first line in the actual game? If you want to do it from complete memory and are stumped, here’s a useless hint: He was talking to Dr. Kadowaki regarding Seifer and their "morning training"
? ? ? ?

As we all know, the gunblade weapon type first appeared in FFVIII as Squall and Seifer’s weapons. But, how many other Square Enix games have featured gunblades since?
Darth Revan
04-10-2010, 10:56 AM
Gunblades have appeared in the following Square Enix games:
Crisis Core
Dirge of Cerberus
Final Fantasy VIII
Final Fantasy XII
Final Fantasy XIII
Dissidia Final Fantasy
Parasite Eve II
as well as appearing in Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, used by Yazoo and Loz (Where did SE get the names from…)
Side note: They’ve also appeared in World of Warcraft as well, and Rinoa wielded one in Dead Fantasy called something Star… I think.

Gilgamesh in FFXII has a Revolver Gunblade amongst his weapons, with a chocobo imprinted on the blade (whereas Squall’s had Griever). There’s also the Ras Algethi, which looks similar to the Lionheart. I think there’s another gunblade in FFXII, but the name eludes me at this time.
Anyway… my question is this:
Irvine Kinneas’s birthday commonly falls on the same date as which American Holiday?

Given that he said it "commonly falls," I’m thinking that it’s one of those holidays where the actual date of the holiday changes from year to year because it falls on a particular day of the week instead. So I’m just going to take a guess and say Thanksgiving.
Darth Revan
04-11-2010, 01:09 AM
Agent0042 is correct. Irvine’s birthdate is the 24th of November and is a common date on which Thanksgiving falls. Zell Dincht also has a birthday on a holiday, March 17, St Patrick’s Day.

Techchild

nope
Olde
05-09-2010, 12:57 AM
I believe it’s Meteor, by using a buffed-up Rinoa’s second limit break Angel Wing.
The End is one-hit-kill though. And using glitches to obtain it, it’s the strongest spell.
Techchild
05-09-2010, 10:53 AM
It is indeed Meteor. The End is also known as Apocalyspe due to bad translation.
The End = Apcalypse. They are the same spell.(different area of release)
Your go Olde
Then….what would Ultimecia’s spell be called then? I’m not going by translation but by the English game so to me, The End and Apocalypse are totally different.
Agent0042
05-10-2010, 02:24 AM
Yeah, they’ve always been two different spells to me. You can even draw Apocalypse from Ultimecia and use it.
Olde
05-10-2010, 04:01 AM
I think IDX got it. The spell he’s referring to is the command from Selphie’s Slots. While it’s not technically a magic spell per se, I see what he’s saying, and in that case it is the strongest spell in the game if you use glitches.
Your go, IDX.
Anyone can have the question. I was just curious about how it couldn’t be the strongest spell.

but the question was ‘apart from Ragnarok’.
FF1WithAllThieves
05-11-2010, 05:59 AM
Is it confirmed that those 3 and the Ragnarok are the only ones in existence? Because it doesn’t seem like they would have invented spaceships so advanced without having launched more than 4 of them into space throughout their space program’s history.
They could’ve been built solely for the purpose of sealing Adel. Did they even talk about the history of those ships? I can’t really remember if they did.
Enkidoh
05-18-2010, 11:10 PM
Well, I just relied on my memory of the game when I asked the question so I’m going to award Alexanderthegreat the question, as his second answer was correct (I remember seeing 2 other Ragnarok-class spacecraft besides the Ragnarok itself during the Adel’s Tomb launch scene, so three ships total.)
What happened to them after though is anyone’s guess – I suppose they were probably left in orbit like the Ragnarok. But anyway.

Excluding Minimog, which is more an ability than a summon, what are the three GFs that cannot be equipped by characters but can only summoned using specific items in battle, and what are the items needed to summon each one?
And no, Odin/Gilgamesh don’t count either, as they’re uncontrollable when they show up (nor do they have items to summon them).
Techchild
06-07-2010, 08:26 AM
Pheonix, moomba, Boko.
If I remember correctly you can obtain 2 Fire Pinions in the game itself but you need the Pocket-Station to Aquire the Freindship potion (moomba) and Gyshal Green (Chocobo).
Wasn’t it also possible to summon Mini-mog using a GF ability you can only get from Pocket station as well?
Enkidoh
06-07-2010, 03:30 PM
That’s right on all counts. Although I didn’t include Minimog because it’s indeed an ability you can have any regular GF in the game learn by using Mog’s Amulet. Equipping this ‘ability’ to a character allows them to summon Mog in battle, who restores a GF’s HP in return for gil.
And yes, Mog’s Amulet can only be gained from the Chocobo World minigame, along with the Friendship item needed to summon Moomba. Chocobo World can only be played using an imported Pocketstation for the PSX version, although it’s included as a separate program with the PC version of FFVIII. But I digress…
Anyway Techchild, you got it so it’s your question. ๐
Techchild
06-07-2010, 06:03 PM

That, and the fact that there’s a picture of it in the strategy guide. By the way, for extra trivia nonsense, the choice options with Edea change from Yes/No to Yes, please and No, thank you.

I’ll take it – what is the name for the term used in the game for "magic used by regular humans"
Commands? ๐ I don’t know.
BTW I think the "cuchi cuchi" treatment is also threatened by the artist in Dollet, on his son.

If omega doesn’t post anything within 24 hours, it’s a free question to whoever wants it.
FF1WithAllThieves
11-17-2010, 07:15 AM
I believe the answer’s actually supposed to be Edea, since you win her card from her, but Agent’s answer is technically just as correct, since Edea no longer has her card after Squall wins it from her, whereas Squall only does have his card after he wins it from Laguna.
I think it should be Agent’s, but if he doesn’t want it, I don’t want it either, so if I get credit for it, then free question.
Edit: IDX beat me to the punch with the second answer, looks like.
Agent0042
11-17-2010, 01:29 PM
IDX can have it.
omega911
11-17-2010, 06:00 PM
I was thinking about Agent’s answer and how it kinda IS true, but I decided to go with who’s the only person who carries their own card before Squall gets it and I couldn’t think of anyone but Edea. Besides, it’s good to have different answers.
But anyone can have the question.

Didn’t Seifer idolize Laguna as a child and wanted to become a knight because Laguna was.
Yes, the more detailed story is that the movie Laguna did (in Disc 3, with the Ruby Dragon) Seifer loved as a child, and is what inspired him to be a Sorceress’ knight, and to use a gunblade. Your turn. ๐

Latias, before you can ask a question in this thread, you have to answer the last question correctly.
Secondly, far as I know there is no way to accurately answer as to ‘What/Who is the real identity of Ultimecia?’ There are a lot of theories (one saying it’s a version of Ellone, and another saying it’s a alternate form of Rinoa), but nothing 100% concrete.

I see. Perhaps the question can be deleted though.
About the question, It was found that there is a real identity of Ultimecia though. The answer lies in the final and the beginning of the game though.
Darth Revan
11-20-2010, 09:59 AM
‘In the final and the beginning of the game’? You mean Edea Kramer? She was possessed by Ultimecia, so unless you want to go into a long theory reminiscent of a script from Star Trek, let’s leave it at that. Also, to discuss ‘that’, create a new thread or something… this thread isn’t for that discussion.

I always thought the first Ulitimicia you fight (red dress) is the Junction-machine-Ellone that Dr.Odine says he started making presently, but is a full working machine in the future. Its this version that you see possesing Edea in G.garden.
Anyway you say theres a question??

Well, it is not Edea as well, but it was related to her.
I will put a new thread for that. Since you have the answer for this one, Death’s Head, let that consider Rinoa is correct. Perhaps for the correct owner to put the following question.

What is the name of Lagunas theme?
everyone knows it so first person to get it ask a question.
Agent0042
02-02-2011, 09:13 PM
I can only assume you mean the battle theme, which would be "The Man With the Machine Gun."
Ya I think Agent has it. As far as I’m aware, it’s the only theme that’s dedicated to Laguna (quite the catchy tune I might add :)).

Nah, I guess I was sort of waiting for Baby Boink to say it’s okay, but I can’t think of anything else that could possibly be Laguna’s Theme, so I’ll go ahead and ask a question…
What location is the train that the party takes out of Timber bound for?

Galbadia right? or that area rather

No, sorry, not Galbadia. There’s a specific location name that I’m looking for.

If I remember rightly, that particular train they catch from Timber runs to Dollet. Squall and his party only travel as far as a station called East Academy however.

I think the ‘T’ in ‘T-board’ stands for Turbo. Somewhat akin to the Mattel Hoverboard Marty McFly used in Back to the Future II and III.

Heh, methinx Agent0042 has a promising career in song… similar to maybe the parody songs of Weird Al Yankovic?

No, Malboro is also a rare appearance on Hell. Tri-Face was the other one of the three.

I’ll go ahead and take it. It’s an easy question though lol
At which point in the game does Squall give Zell his ring?
JohnnyMercyside
02-17-2011, 10:16 AM
When they’re at the quad in Balamb Garden I believe. I’ve just arrived at Disc 2 and haven’t played the game in some time. ๐

JohnnyMercyside
02-17-2011, 03:20 PM

It’s considered a courtesy before moving on. However, I think I’m going to make a new rule. And this applies to any trivia thread, from now on. After someone posts an answer, anyone may confirm it if they know it to be correct.

Apparently it used to be!

Well, at some point, some people started moving on and just going ahead and posting a question, but some people still wait.
I’ve noticed when it came to obvious answers that the person who answered it would just ask a question. My question was relatively easy (maybe it wasn’t as clear as I intended) and I assumed that whoever answered would’ve just asked another question.

Name all the bosses in the game that come in twos. By that I mean there is just two of the same enemy, and no other different enemies.
There’s those lizard things, the oilboils (sp?), and…can’t think of anything else.
Yeah there is the Igiuons and the Oil Boyles, I know if Humans are included but if they are you have.
Biggs and Wedge, Fuijin and Raijin also Seifer and Edea. Again dont know if they count but Trauma and Dromas which he creates.
Thats about me done for this. I may not be about for a few days so if I Am correct this is a FREE QUESTION to whoever wants it.
JohnnyMercyside

IDX got it, although Baby Boink terms the lizards Iguions. I’d say IDX should ask the next question. ๐
I agree I was only giving the name as I knew it :). I also misread the previous question so excuse the random answer.
Someone else can ask a question.
Agent0042
02-21-2011, 03:18 AM
If you choose to have Squall lie when the guard is torturing him in the D-District Prison, what does he say that SeeD’s plan is for taking over the world?
Enkidoh
02-21-2011, 05:45 AM
That SeeD’s goal is to ‘grow flowers all over the world to promote peace’, or something like that. Clearly he was tricking the guard into believing Garden is a hippy commune. ๐
But it’s funnier to have Squall defiant and taunt the guard instead of lying. :p
Agent0042
02-21-2011, 07:17 AM
You got it. He says that seeing flowers saps people’s will to fight. Then, SeeD invades.
Your go.

Enkidoh
02-23-2011, 04:35 PM
Following Sorceress Adel’s defeat by Laguna, and her resultant confinement in cryogenic suspension above the world in orbit, long range radio and analog TV transmissions become unusable due to the tomb’s containment field causing severe radio interference on the surface.
What replacement technology is stated as having therefore become the standard means of communication in FFVIII’s world?
JohnnyMercyside
02-23-2011, 04:54 PM
It’s the HD Cables isn’t it? It lets them do short ones but not continental or global broadcasts. Something like that anyway, I’m on Disc 2 and have vaguely forgotten already ๐
Enkidoh
03-06-2011, 08:01 PM
Yep, it’s stated as being HD Cable – presumably some kind of ADSL/digital stream technology, as computer terminals are widespread yet TVs seem to have become scarce on account of the radio interference. Galbadia’s attack on Dollet was to connect this HD cable system to the old radio transmission tower to broadcast Deling’s deceleration of ‘peace’ to people in countries whose HD connections had been damaged or severed due to monster attacks and war.
Anyway, you got it, so your go Johnny. ๐

JohnnyMercyside
03-13-2011, 12:46 PM
Okay as no one has answered this in 6 days I’ll answer. It’s in the Missile Base, when you choose to walk past the first guard, he demands your attention to tell you that walking in a straight line is fantastic manners, and that your parents must have raised you well.

03-13-2011, 06:00 PM
Yeah, you got it. Your go.
JohnnyMercyside
03-13-2011, 06:59 PM
Under what circumstances can you get the Lionheart ultimate weapon on Disc 1? Without cheating of course.
Enkidoh
03-23-2011, 08:28 PM
Well, Ifrit gains the Ammo-RF ability at lvl 10 (necessary to make Pulse Ammo for the weapon’s synthesis), Adamantite is dropped by Adamantoises found on the beaches and plain near Dollet, and the Dragon Fang can be dropped by Grendels found in the forests near Timber, so theoretically the earliest is when Squall and party are heading to Galbadia Garden after getting off the train at East Academy (and after a little GF levelling too of course :P), however, the item required to synth Pulse Ammo (Energy Crystals) isn’t found anywhere in disc 1 to my knowledge (neither is the Weapons Monthly magazine needed for it to even appear in the Weapon Shop for synthesis too for that matter).
Prove me wrong though. :p
Agent0042
03-23-2011, 11:49 PM
Actually, it is possible to get the Energy Crystals and synthesize the Lionheart on Disc 1 – those have to be gotten using Card Mod – offhand, I believe you they come from Elynoyle Cards. And Weapons Monthly magazines don’t matter – it’s always possible to synthesize a weapon even if you don’t have the correct magazine for it, so long as you have the required items and the pittance of gil.
However, other than that, I believe Enkidoh’s answer is correct, including the specifics of it being once you get off the train at East Academy, so this one should be awarded to Enkidoh.
JohnnyMercyside
03-24-2011, 03:35 PM
You can also get Laser Cannons from Elastoids on Disc 1, when you are Laguna in Lunatic Pandora. You can refine Laser Cannons into Pulse Ammo. But apart from that Enkidoh is correct and he can ask the next question. ๐
Also, you don’t need the magazines to get weapon modifications, the mags just tell you what you need. If you have the items, you can mod your weapons at any time.
Enkidoh
03-25-2011, 06:23 AM
Ah, no problem, it’s been ages since I last played FFVIII so I couldn’t remember. :p
Anyway…
What reward do you get for saving the kid who falls onto the train tracks in Timber from an oncoming train in disc 3?
7alentine
04-14-2011, 03:55 AM
as no-one has answered this in like 3 weeks, i think its safe to say no-one knows Enkidoh lol, mind giving us the answer?
meanwhile I’ll ask a question just to keep the topic going…
What is the first ever instance of an enemy using the spell ‘Aura’ ?
Enkidoh
04-14-2011, 04:52 PM
Sure. To be honest, I completely forgot about it anyway. :p
The answer was all you get for saving the kid from being run over by a train is you get a free stay at the Timber Inn, plus Squall’s heroic actions are immortalized in an online news flash.
As for your question 7alentine, I remember vaguely first being able to draw it around the time I visited Trabia Garden for the first time, but I can’t remember what enemy I drew it from. So I have no idea.
7alentine
04-14-2011, 05:55 PM
no no no i mean the first time you see an enemy USE Aura, not simply have it available to draw.
Agent0042
04-14-2011, 11:12 PM

which spells (or spell families) are available to be DRAWN (not refined!) before the "Dollet" mission right at the start of the game?
you must have ALL of them.
EDIT: Yes this is a hard one, yes take into account that creatures level up, and as a hint; there are 11 spells.

Fire/Fira/Firaga
Blizzard/Blizzara/Blizzaga
Thunder/Thundara/Thundaga
Cure/Cura/Curaga
Scan
Slow
Stop
Quake
Water
Sleep
I thought of Meltdown as well, but didn’t put that as I’m pretty sure the enemies in the Fire Cavern don’t level up.
EDIT: Just remembered the right answer for no. 11 – Esuna from the draw point in the library!
7alentine
04-17-2011, 01:50 PM
sorry i miscounted, theres actually 14
Meltigemini
04-17-2011, 03:40 PM

04-17-2011, 06:52 PM
you cant draw Quake. only one left
7alentine
04-19-2011, 02:10 PM
lol ok obvious this question was a little TOO hard; heres the list of the 14 spells.
Fire, Thunder, Blizzard, Water, Drain, Cure, Esuna, Scan, Sleep, Meltdown, Slow, Stop, Silence and Berserk.
I’ll give this next question to Multigemini, he actually took a shot at it
Meltigemini

Name all of the enemies that you ever fight as Laguna.
Agent0042
04-20-2011, 02:11 AM
According to Final Fantasy Wiki, high-level T-Rexaur does have Quake.
7alentine
04-20-2011, 03:01 AM
I was just grinding on them, from lvl 30+ they only have Firaga and Thundaga, you must steal and refine Dino Bones to get Quake.
Enkidoh
04-20-2011, 04:06 AM
Although the FF Wiki isn’t always accurate though Agent, the official strategy guide indeed lists Quake under the T-Rexaur’s spell list for level 30-100, so it’s possible. But anyway.
Answering Meltigemini’s question, Laguna can fight the following enemies in his various sections of the game:
Fungaar
Geezard
Esthar Soldier (both human and cyborg versions)
Gesper
Elastoid
Caterchipillar
Bite Bug
Ruby Dragon
GIM52A
I think that’s all of them (but there might be one or two that I missed).
Meltigemini

Looks good – I don’t ever remember fighting any Galbadian robots as Laguna but the rest of the list is what I was looking for. ๐

04-22-2011, 02:20 PM
No problem, I think in hindsight I’d confused the GIM52A with the Estharian Gesper (they’re both robots used by enemy soldiers), even though I’d also mentioned the Gesper anyway. :p
Anyway…
What is the trick to avoiding President Deling’s guards while hijacking his carriage from his Presidential Train on disc 1? (the ones who appear at the windows of the carriage Squall and his party run across)
JohnnyMercyside
04-22-2011, 04:04 PM
Stay still when the blue guard is there, move when the red guard is there. The former listens for sounds, the latter for temperature. I hope that’s the right way round… ๐

You’re only supposed to ask a question if you answer the previous question correctly first. You can’t just jump in and post one.
Enkidoh
04-23-2011, 06:29 AM
Although Johnny’s answer wasn’t actually what I was looking for, in hindsight it is correct given I worded my question wrongly. :p
I meant to say what actually happens when you try to avoid the guards on the Presidential train, hoping someone would actually realize I’m being a smart ass and that it’s a trick question. ๐
Johnny’s answer is what the Forest Owls tell you is the correct method for avoiding the guards, but in actuality, when you try doing that complex strategy, the guards on the train belatedly discover their supposedly hi-tech sensors aren’t working! Meaning you can just run across the roof at your leisure regardless (I always ran across the roof anyway immediately, and always managed to reach the next screen before the guards had even appeared at the window so it’s a moot point).
Anyway, I’m sorry for the confusion – you basically got it Johnny so it’s your go. ๐

Hehe so the answer you wanted really was "nothing" ๐
I never noticed it not working, I always tried to do what they suggested!
Anyways… my question…
There is one character in the ending FMV (the credits) that hasn’t got a name. Where in-game do you meet this person and what is the relationship that they have to one or more of the characters? If that’s too vague ask and I’ll elaborate ๐
Enkidoh
04-23-2011, 06:25 PM
I think you’re referring to the ‘Pigtailed-Girl’, the Garden student who is smitten with Zell, and who appears in the ending sitting next to him lovestruck while he scoffs down hot dogs. :p

Enkidoh – you just taught me something – I never knew that either! I always just ran across that part myself, before they ever had time to actually activate anything. LOL. That might be fun to try sometime, just to see that. And just when you think you’ve discovered all the little secrets like that…
Enkidoh
04-24-2011, 07:05 AM
Hehe, the only reason I even knew about it in the first place was that it’s mentioned in the Brady guide book, and that they even mention not to bother with the Forest Owls’ strategy. But yeah, I normally just floored it myself anyway across there. :p
How much HP does the alien PuPu have when you encounter it at the end of the UFO quest, and what do you get for defeating it?
7alentine
04-24-2011, 08:10 AM
it has 10hp, regardless of level
two ways to defeat it; give it 5 elixirs – receive the ‘PuPu’ card / attack and defeat it – receive ‘Jet Engine’
Enkidoh
04-24-2011, 09:00 AM
Yup, that’s correct. (although the guide book states you get an Accelerator upon physically defeating PuPu rather than a Jet Engine, but I never killed it, instead completing the quest properly so I have no idea which is true – I’ll still give you the next question anyway 7alentine :D).
Anyway, your go. ๐

there is only one GF that is completely missable if you don’t do the right thing at one point. which is it and how can you miss it?
Meltigemini
04-24-2011, 07:31 PM
Cerberus, if you don’t fight it in Galbadia Garden on disc 2.
Enkidoh
04-24-2011, 10:06 PM
That’s not correct – Cerberus can be drawn from Gargantura in Ultimecia’s Castle in disc 4 if you missed it the first time.
I think 7alentine means Gilgamesh, as you can’t ‘gain’ him if you hadn’t already defeated Odin before reaching the end of disc 3 (Odin can be gained on disc 4 if you didn’t gain him earlier however).
7alentine
04-25-2011, 04:37 AM
nope, sorry it isnt Gilgamesh
Enkidoh
04-25-2011, 07:03 AM
The Brothers then? It’s optional to gain them and completely missable if you don’t go deeper into the Tomb of the Unknown King when you’re there on General Caraway’s little collection errand. However, I thought even if you missed it then you could easily return there and gain the GF at a later date (even in disc 4, as I’m sure the Tomb isn’t sealed off due to it being a dungeon and not a town).
Other than that, I have no idea.
Meltigemini

In Galbadia Garden’s Ice Rink, what is written on the red banner?
Enkidoh
05-09-2011, 10:17 AM
‘Keep on Rockin’ in Galbadia’, I think.
Ironically enough, a similar line was much later used in FFVII: Advent Children on the Meteor memorial – both are references to the title of Neil Young’s song Keep on Rockin’ in the Free World incidentally (song references show up repeatedly in FF titles, so this one isn’t surprising.) ๐

What route number is shown on the front of all buses running in Deling City?
Meltigemini
05-09-2011, 08:18 PM
45
Enkidoh
05-15-2011, 02:43 PM
I’m sorry for the late reply, but that’s not actually correct.
In hindsight, I worded my question wrongly – there is actually no route number on the buses in Deling City – the number I was actually referring to is on the roof of the bus, not the front. So I guess it was a trick question (but not intentionally).
Anyway, if anyone wants to guess the number on the top of the Deling City buses, go ahead. ๐
Otherwise, I’ll open the next question up to whoever wants it.
Alm???ranos

Yes, I think we should. As for the last question, the answer’s on his website. I’ll admit, I didn’t know it. "Flare becomes accessible after the second dream the team have (that forest before you enter Galbaldia Garden). Once you have completed the dream with Laguna and co run along the sides of the forest that are touching the cliffs, here you will fight only one monster which is a Grendel. Card 100 of these and the 101st card you will receive will be a Tiamat. The Tiamat card can be modded into 10 Flare Stones and then into 10 Flares using Ifrits F Mag-RF."

To get this thing rolling, easy question, what does "Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec", the words mentioned in the beginning "Liberi Fatali" (the intro song of the game), mean?
Enkidoh
07-08-2011, 12:17 AM
That’s really easy.
Despite the rest of the lyrics being written in Latin, ‘Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec’ is actually an anagram of ‘Succession of Witches’, a reference to the sorceresses in the story, with four letters remaining left over, which spell out the game’s central theme: ‘love’.
The inlay jacket for the FF S Generation CD album mentions this by the way. ๐

At the crossing, there’s a little ‘chicobo’ running around. If you kick it multiple times (by simply running into it), the Mother Chocobo will appear and take the young one away.

There were two old keys… nothing cheaper than something free.
One is definitely a LuvLuvG, I think the other has an Ultima draw point.

There are two ‘Old Keys’. One does lead to a LuvLuvG and the other leads to a Silence draw point, not Ultima. Still, you got one right so next question is yours Meltigemini.

Sorceress Adel speaks only three lines in the game… what are they?
EDIT: It’s been four days and no one has answered, so here’s the answer. Adel says the following three lines of dialogue: "What is going on?" "Where?" and "You thought I would fall for that trick?"
As no one answered, the next question can be asked by whoever posts next.

Geez, I normally give it a month for people to have a try at answering. :p Although to be honest, I couldn’t remember exactly what she said anyway. ๐
Anyway, I’ll have a go at giving a new question.
What mythological creature (and frequent FF monster) is depicted on the front gate of each Garden? (for Trabia Garden, it’s a statue in the ruined fountain).
EDIT: okay, it’s been a month so I’m gonna wind it up. Gargoyles are depicted as statues at the entrances to each Garden.
Anyway, free question to whoever wants it.
JohnnyMercyside

09-21-2011, 11:24 PM
If you mean the Fastitocalon-F’s then no. But I realised I didn’t phrase the question properly, I meant physical draw points *facepalms oneself*
I’m playing through the game again and I stocked 100 Waters from enemies. And since I’ve done this with all magic since the beginning, most of the draw points won’t let me draw anymore (I’m on disc three and the only draw point I encountered where I didn’t have 100 of was Full-Life on the Ragnarok). But in all honesty, I don’t even remember there being a Water draw point. But if I must guess, I’ll guess try Winhill lol
JohnnyMercyside
09-25-2011, 08:29 PM
No it’s earlier than that. The first time you can draw Water from a draw point is in Laguna’s first flashback, in the Timber forest before they arrive at Deling City.

02-05-2012, 06:57 PM
I admit that as it’s been so long since I played FFVIII, I have absolutely no idea. I keep having this image of a moomba saying a ‘coo coo’ sound, but that’s probably not the right answer. :p
So I have idea what it could be.
JohnnyMercyside
02-06-2012, 04:31 PM
Well it’s insinuated that the Moomba asks you which floor you want a shortcut to be set on when in D-District Prison, but after checking the script I can’t find any official text that is directed as coming from the Moomba itself. So maybe I was wrong.
Other text otherwise found in the actual script other than the term "Laguna" is "rrrrrgh!", when the Moomba poses when Zell, Quistis and Selphie get their weapons back, and when the Moombas help when finding squall, one of the Moombas say "srrr srr Laguna!".
Free go for anyone as I kinda buggered that one up! ๐

I may as well ask a question if no one else wants it. ๐
Apart from the mobile Gardens, and the Ragnarok and it’s sister ships, what is another example of an aircraft/flying vehicle in FFVIII’s world? (There are several examples which can be classified as a ‘flying machine’ that I’m aware of, but just give one if you’d like). ๐
JohnnyMercyside

T-boards and those flying vessels the people in Galbadia Garden use in the opening FMV there are two I remember.

Jetpack thing of Galbadia soldiers, the mobile seats and cars in Esthar.
Enkidoh
02-11-2012, 05:39 AM
Johnny got two that I remembered (the Galbadian paratroopers’ jetpacks and t-boards), but I admit I completely forgot about the hovercars and seats in Esthar, so good catch Szczepan :)).
I would have also accepted the Galbadian missiles as well, as they resemble jet aircraft more than missiles (they have wide wedge shaped bodies with long wings and literally fly above the ground rather than simply streaking towards whatever target they’re fired at).
Anyway, either of you can have the question as you’re both right. ๐

Okay Johnny, it’s been over a month, and I don’t think there’s going to be any takers (I admit I can’t remember what he says during that scene, other than saying ‘this is like talking to a wall’ to her), so I think you should wind this question up okay, otherwise this thread is doomed to obscurity. ๐

Enkidoh
04-03-2012, 07:42 PM
Not quite. :p (although Squall’s reaction can kind of be thought of in that way, in a manner of speaking). ๐
Seriously though, she asks Squall to meet her there to inform him that she’s been fired as a Garden Instructor, although she still remains a member of SeeD. She also basically pours her heart out to him, subtly revealing her feelings for him.
As is well known in any event, Squall rebuffs her by famously telling her to ‘go talk to a wall’, no doubt making thousands of dateless Japanese male players angry in the process. :p

Phoenix Down
As I cannot find the answer to this on the first page:
Am I even allowed to answer right after? S:
Enkidoh
04-04-2012, 08:23 AM
No, your answer is right. You got it! ๐ Well done! ^^
It’s an old trick that has been in the series almost since the beginning, in that curative items and spells harm undead (because they’re classed as having a ‘holy’ effect). Hence a Phoenix Down (or Life/Raise spell), an item which is meant to revive from ‘death’, naturally, against an undead this would therefore have the opposite effect, and destroy it.
In fact, with the Zombie spell it opens this trick up with even enemies who aren’t actually undead (namely, normal human enemies – a good battle in FFVIII for this is the second Biggs and Wedge battle in the D-District Prison – cast Zombie on them and when they try to heal themselves they just end up harming themselves instead). :p
Anyway, I’ve rambled on long enough. You got it Phoe, so next question is yours. ๐
Phoen-IX
04-04-2012, 08:13 PM
Whoopwhoop! Sometimes, I found, life and/or phoenix down don’t work though. Probably ’cause they find it too easy, but the cures/potions etc have never failed.
Woaahh that casting Zombie-tip is a new one for me! Never even thought of it! Never thought I’d be having this noob-ish realisation over something in FF8. WOAH! XP

That’s what I was thinking – as far as I was aware he didn’t have a brother.
Unless you’re confusing Gilgamesh as Odin’s brother (because Gil gains Zantesuken after all). But Gilgamesh and Odin aren’t actually related at all (Gilgamesh is from FFV – his FFVIII appearance is a direct crossover).
But that’s a long shot.
Phoen-IX
04-11-2012, 12:53 AM
In norse mythology it is mentioned that Odin has two brothers.
However, Odin has no brother in FFVIII and it’s a FFVIII-Trivia after all..

Closest thing to a brother would be the Tonberry King. You know, living in the same hellhole and all. ^^

Is this a serious question? There is no mention what so ever of Odin’s brother in the entire game, unless like Enkidoh suggested, you’re confusing Gilgamesh as his brother! O.o

While there’s no healing springs in FF8, there is a place where you can drink water from somewhere and it heals your party to full HP. Where is this?

Yep, Pos got it right. Your go ๐
Well, it’s been a while and I think I’ll just go ahead and ask another question to keep this going. It’s pretty easy so I’m sure whoever will answer first will get it right.
At what point in the story does Squall finally do something out of his character in terms of going out of his way instead of just "going with the flow" as he always has done?
JohnnyMercyside
06-30-2012, 09:24 AM
I suppose it’s open for debate but the scene I always think about and suppose fits your criteria is when all the characters think Seifer is dead and start talking about him in the past tense, it makes Squall flip out, something he had never really done before until then. ๐
Yeah I’ll go ahead and take it. Your go :D.

07-01-2012, 02:50 PM
I don’t know if I made it clear but it doesn’t matter, I didn’t do much research on my question and when I did, I found that the only character that has their own card was actually Edea…
Free question.

Free question.
I would’ve kept silent honestly; made it a clever trick question lol. I had a feeling only Edea had her own but the way you worded your question made me do a double take lol. I don’t look up the answers (because I like a challenge) but was curious as to who else. Honestly, I started thinking maybe Kiros and Ward might be one of them because I don’t remember how to get their cards.
Olde
07-01-2012, 10:27 PM
According to the official strategy guide, the only human character who carries his/her own card is Edea. Actually, though, if you count non-human creatures as characters, Ifrit, Sacred, Minotaur, Diablos, PuPu, Bahamut, and Odin (and, perhaps, Chicobo too) also carry their own cards. All the other character cards are attained through other means.
JohnnyMercyside

Great Hyne story is a reference from some other FF. Which one and why?
FF3, I think.
In 8 there’s a guy who tells you the story of the magic God Hyne and how he gave people half his body after a battle, and in 3 there is a magician named Hain who is a magician and is a skeleton.
I think that’s right.

What are Gilgamesh’s first line said after Seifer kills Odin?
Enkidoh

"You gave me the fourth one."
He says more after that. But the ‘fourth one’ naturally refers to Zantesuken which Gilgamesh naturally had just acquired moments before.
Gysahl Greens

Correct!
Your go, Enkidoh.

During the battle against Adel on the Lunatic Pandora at the end of disc 3, when Adel junctions Rinoa to herself, how much HP does Rinoa have, revealed by using Scan? (if no one knows the exact amount I’ll award the next question to the closest amount guessed.)
JohnnyMercyside
07-04-2012, 01:35 AM
Haha, no idea what the exact amount is, I think it’s around 2800HP? A complete guess. ๐
Enkidoh
07-05-2012, 01:56 AM
Nope, it’s actually much higher than both of those amounts.
I also made a slight error – I thought her HP was fixed but after looking at the official guide book I belatedly discovered it can actually vary depending on your party’s level when you fight Adel (like regular enemies). So the first person to get close to the lowest or highest amount her HP can be I’ll give the next question to. ๐
Gysahl Greens
07-05-2012, 06:06 AM
well, when i fought her, sqaull was level 80 sumthing, and if i remember… 6,300 HP?
I dunno im probably wrong XD
Enkidoh
07-05-2012, 08:53 AM
According to the guidebook, her HP can be between a minimum 6021 and a maximum 9036. So you got it really close Gysahl. Well done! ๐
Your go.

That’s correct!
Your go IDX
Enkidoh
07-12-2012, 07:00 AM
Depends on context really. As far as I knew, Griever was essentially a symbol of Squall’s ideals and dreams technically – a lion, symbolizing honour, pride. loyalty and strength. It was also his idea of the ‘ultimate’ GF, hence Ultimecia’s use of it against him in the final battle of the game – she scanned his mind and found Griever’s image, and gave it a twisted form to (presumably) demoralize Squall. Naturally, it didn’t work. ๐
I presume that’s the answer you were looking for.
Enkidoh
07-14-2012, 06:58 AM
This might be somewhat pervy, but ah well:
According to the woman manning the souvenir kiosk in Timber, which character is stated as having a ‘naughty magazine’ collection in the game? ๐
Phoen-IX
07-17-2012, 03:09 AM
Zone! If you give him one you get a Rename- and a Shiva card in return <:
Enkidoh
07-17-2012, 04:41 AM
That’s correct! I would have also accepted Irvine as well, seeing as he leaves one for Squall and Rinoa during their ‘date’ in Fisherman’s Horizon, which Rinoa finds funny but Squall is embarrassed about. ๐
Anyway, it’s your go Phoe. ๐
Phoen-IX

Why is the little kid crying in front of the pet shop in Timber?

that question is random lol im guessing ur at that part of the game right now lol
if i remember correctly i think he lost his dog in the petshop?
Phoen-IX

Lol, no. I just wanted a question that was not that easy to google ๐
I played the game too many times not to remember random stuff like that, haha.
But you’re right! His dog was in the petshop but the petshop was closed, so he couldn’t get his dog and got all crybaby on our asses q;
You’rrrrrrrrrre up!
Well, he’s actually crying because his dog is locked in the shop because the owner is on vacation. Not necessarily because the dog got lost in there lol

It all comes down to the fact that he lost his dog. Doesn’t matter how, when or why to me. And I’m the one that asked the question <;
So, FF7genie, you’re going to have to cook up a question. *evil laugh* [:0
I didn’t answer because I don’t come here everyday and it was an easy question so I wanted to give someone else a chance. Besides, I prefer answering than asking.

Sorry Genie that’s not right, but it’s been 8 days so I’ll just say.
1. You have to give the right information to the guards and not lie
2. Avoid all the choices to fight for as long as possible
3. Setting the self destruction to go off at 10 minutes, no longer amount of time will work.

On the PSX version, get the GF Siren to level 100, refine 100 Curse Spikes (with the Tool-RF ability I think it’s called). into the item Dark Matter. IIRC, there is another way via the PocketStation but I’m sure about that.

There are three game elements that are affected by the amount of steps the player has taken. What are they?
Meltigemini
12-20-2013, 12:12 PM
Getting paid
Learning Angelo’s skills for Rinoa
Not really sure about this third one but… advancing the storyline when trapped in the Missile Base? (I think it really just advances once you explore the entire screen, but I can’t think of any others…)
JohnnyMercyside
12-21-2013, 11:14 AM
Yep, spot on with both of those ๐
The other thing is draw points, these too are affected by how many steps the player has taken.

Alright, well since I know my answer is the correct one I will go ahead with a question.
How do you obtain Gilgamesh? Please be somewhat detailed in your response.
MisterSir
01-14-2014, 09:43 PM
You need either the Garden to be mobile or you need the Ragnarok, then you go to Centra and find the Centra Ruins, once you enter the Ruins you have 20 minutes to solve a puzzle and find Odin, In the fight Odin will not attack you at all (easiest boss ever.), when you defeat him he wont be a GF in the technical sense as you can’t junction him, but he will come randomly in battles and kill things for you. Anyway when you have him, go and fight Seifer at the end of disc 3, Odin will try to kill Seifer but Seifer will end up killing Odin, Odin’s sword will fly into the sky and Gilgamesh will catch it, at the end of that battle Gilgamesh will knock Seifer away saying "You gave me the fourth one. Huh was it you?", and after that battle with Seifer Gilgamesh will take Odin’s place in your party.
