      @@kevintappminville195 Exactly! Serious though... Junction and draw are very good.
      I realized that FF8 actually wants their players to play in exploration and farming instead of grinding. We farm the magic from monsters and quickly ran away. And if we're lower level with powerful magic equipped, we're actually stronger than the bosses because all of them scaled to our levels.
