Woh, things just got real! Thanks to viewer Ryan Monteith for bringing this to my attention! It turns out, in Final Fantasy 8 Remastered you can FORCE rare enemy spawns repeatedly to mug the items they are carrying. This is clearly an INSANE discovery that means a bulk of farming time is now a thing of the past!
If there are specific rare encounters that you think are going to be really ideal to use with this method then please let us know in the comments, I am sure we would all appreciate your insight :-)

*EDIT* This works when killing the enemy too!!!!!!!
YAASS! 😁. So hyped this works!
You pronounced the name perfectly mate, and im glad its proven efficient! Thanks for the credit Fuzz!
@@satyris410 tbh im not even sure what the mob is, so i havent given it a go. I dont think ive even realised how gold this discovery is 😅. Its gotta have multiple applications.
@@drubattle mob is a term popularized from Minecraft that means "enemy". By "mob" here, they mean the enemy you are attempting to farm items from (blue dragon, tri-face, etc).
@@whiteeeveeangel ahhhh thanks man, not a Minecraft guy 😁.
I tried it there and it worked! 5/5 times i killed a blue dragon, and used the save/exit method. Insane!!!
This works even with killing? Then i'd have to say that this exploit is caused simply by the game storing the last monster you battled in its internal memory then wiping that memory the moment you initiate another random battle within the same session. But since you save and reload without getting into any other battles (thus starting a completely new session), the game dumps that stored encounter data onto you the moment you reload your file as the next thing you're supposed to fight as a means of clearing temporary memory/data.
If that's how this works, then, technically, this should work with any monster in the game that isn't a boss or PuPu. So long as it can be encountered on the world map, this should work for any monster in the game.
So it may also work if you transform him with "Card" to get even more items. Let's try :D
To add on, whichever character you equip the mug ability with, don’t press switch until that said characters bar is filled. The first attempt would be a miss but the second attempt will nail you x2 all the time. Works for me.
I always get 1 no matter what
Conclusions from testing. It saves the rare spawn period. You can take it with you by using no enc, and changing location and saving there. It doesn't matter if you kill card or run from it. If you save after an encounter and fight another but reload the save without saving again the manip will still work. So far I chained ruby dragon to t rex to blue dragon.
In 20 years of playing this game I never heard of this method. Holy crap.
That's because it doesn't work in the original game
That's the weirdest Ruby Dragon I've ever seen
Hey Fuzz I just found out that when getting Ruby Dragon to appear you don't have to keep fighting until they appear. Just go to the forest and save your game, exit and restart, and they automatically appear right away!
It's just luck 😆
Actually, it's not luck. I have always got either Ruby Dragon right away or the Blue Dragon right away every time.
All of the coolest things I’ve learned on this play through by far is RNG manipulation. It used to take hours sometimes manipulating the card rules. I would have to play over and over again to see which rule spread or was abolished. What a pain! Now, I learn that to abolish Plus on Lunar base, I need to say “no” x4 and “quit” x6 and voila! Plus is gone! Just like magic! Really cool that people have “cracked the code”! I’m sure it’s a lot harder on newer games.
Funny story. When I was a kid playing ff8 on ps1. I was maybe 8 years old? I don’t remember what point in the game I was in but it was the very very early stages of the game maybe around the ifrit encounter and as I’m running back to Balamb I run into a t-rex and my health was already very low from a fight I just had and I had no potions no cures. So I run into a trex and ofcourse I die. When I go to reload the game il go make a run for it again and I hit a trex AGAIN. No matter what I did I would always die and have to restart and the trex kept spawning and I had no idea why. I had no choice but to start a new game from scratch because there was no way to run away and I had no way to heal at all lol. All these years and I finally
Get an answer as to why.
U could have escaped????
Storm Bowling Dave Bais I couldn’t. I’d go to escape and it would hit me and I’d die before I can escape.
Tha'ts possible you probably run to the woods when you were about to go to the cavern to get Ifrit. Also happened to me
Oh wow that's insane! What a nice trick. Did not know that for myself. Clearly the best of farming those rare monsters :)
On Disc 3 in the Deep Sea Resarch Center, by going down the Fixed Encounter Route you can actually indefinitely farm the Tri-Heads(Mug Curse Spikes > Mod into Dark Matter) without ever leaving the Map with the Savepoint
How this works (for me, 100%)
You go down the Fixed encounter Route
You reach the map with the first fixed encounters (Tri-Heads)
Theres a Savepoint, and right before it a fixed encounter.
You hit the savepoint > go into your menu > go to the switchmenu > go INTO the switch menu and just quit out of the menu alltogether.
Take a few steps back > BAM fixed encounter again.
This sped up my Darkmatter farming tremendously as i never needed to reset the map by leaving and rejoining.
Sadly this only works for the Tri-Heads afaik/tested
Brilliant, perfect timing too as I was working my way down the Deep Sea Research when I saw this! Currently farming like crazy, thanks for the tip 😎
Amazing discovery.
Alternative for farming auras though--just farm steel pipes from Wendigos. They can refine into 2 Aura stones, and farming steel pipes is easy as pie.
If I had to guess, this works because the game's memory has loaded a specific fight for you to win. In this case, the Blue Dragon. But since you don't actually defeat it, and instead steal, save and reload your file, the monster somehow gets saved into the game's memory as the next fight for you to undertake since you didn't actually kill it or immediately trigger a random battle right after running.
Kind of reminds me of that one exploit in gen 1 of Pokemon where you could use the Old Man to force your game to store temporary data on the cart, then use that temporary storage fact to brute force encounters with certain Pokemon on the coast of Cinnabar Island. Or less (perhaps even more) known, using Trainers to force an encounter with Mew.
Wrong, it’s to do with the ff battle algorithm.
This still works when you defeat or card the monster.
If you’re like me and already defeated the Ultima Weapon and can no longer farm Curse Spikes from guaranteed Trifaces, this method should make mugging Curse Spikes from them on the Island Closest to Heaven much MUCH easier.
For those that don’t know, 100 curse spikes refine into Dark Matter, a very valuable refining item.
Was thinking exactly the same. Awesome method, if it works for all monsters.
Yup, same here!
That means their wont be much reason skill ultima weapon. I usually skip him completely to farm the fixed encoubters
I used this method when I'm in the stairway going down to Ultima weapon. If you want to farm 100 barriers, star fragments, curse spikes, energy Crystal's, and so on, you can do this method. You can use this method for Devour as well, to gain 255 stats.
@@akinamori1615 cant behemoths be found in the fields of esther? If not, I'm perfectly fine with farming barriers near ultima then killing ultima.
I fought like 12 T-Rexaurs in a row at balamb I wonder how that happened
I noticed this spawn system before actually watching this video and can confirm that it actually worked for me! Very very useful! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 On top of that you can also turn the dragon in a card an then turn 4 cards (with transcard) in a fury fragment for extra aura gems/magic!
Another possible use that I will be trying:
Next to the Chocobo forest in southeast Centra, the patch of forest there spawns ruby dragons. Good way to fill up with meteor right after you get garden mobile
Defintely seems useful for spawning T-rexsaur at the beginning of the game to level up quick or farm his items/card for magic refinement.
If u wa t to level up fast, there is a U shaped spot against mountains by timber or something in a dirt area where u will only fight Vysage, Lefty, and Righty. You can achieve over 1000+ xp in a fight...thats the fastest spot to level...i may ha e to make a video to show you butits super OP..
Well, in the right side of the training center of balamb garden, if you go up there, there (to the left of where Joker appears)is an oval patch of grass right underneath the fence. I was counting, staying there gave me in like 40 fights an encounterrate of 50%. In the left side of the training center is no Rex at all. Maybe someone will find the exact spot that made me counting and being attentive, ´cause at first I walked somewhere there with 9 Rexaurs in line, but I never found that spot again... That´s for the ff8 classic players among us ;)
@@Grievance87go through the door on the right as you enter the Training Center. From the rusty bridge you first cross to those 2 or 3 little, rock islands has the highest spawn rate for T-Rexaurs. That’s where I go to farm AP after getting the Card ability.
It works on ruby dragon by lighthouse, n adamantoise by long horn island, n torama in esthar, at least
And as far as it goes for me you dont have to run into them first, you can do it right away, i have been doing this for devour myself
And if you go into the menu first you spawn something, but its always the same too
Island of heaven, it seems tri-face spawns, winhill spawns vysage
This is awesome. There are a few tweaks (even if unintentionally) like this that make this remaster actually worthwhile. Thanks a bunch!
You could actually use this method to farm Chimera for early Full Life after the FH Arc then get Tonberry LV Up. Either drop rare Regen Rings or Chimera Cards. L Mag. You have Full Life.
There´s Chimera at the desert prison... so even more early ;)
@@Grievance87 Yeah, However, That One Is Super-Rare. Also To Add On To That, You Can Encounter Vysage, Lefty, And Righty On Disc 1 In An Alcove Just West Of Timber If You Stick To The Cliff. Lefty Has The Spell "Drain" To Draw On Disc 1, I Did A Video On It.
I think you can do this strat too to get a fixed 13 ultimas in the ultima draw in shumi village in disc 2...
I dont know how really RNG works but this is how i do it...
Put squall j-mag to 65+ value, and do your roaming strat around shumi village... I roam until S-RANK salaries have popped up twice...
After this i will save the game then enter the shumi village and draw ultima using squall, note that it will have you a static 8 ultimas... After this should exit and reenter your save file... After this, draw again the draw point and it will give you static 13 ultimas
PS: I dont really know if im lucky but i farm the blue dragons by hugging the mountains behind shumi village and the chocobo range
You Can Encounter Mesmerizes In The Plains In Trabia And Level Them Up Above Level 30+, And They Can Drop Regen Rings Which Are Very Good For Full-Life. Do A Video On That Too! It Might Work On Ochus In Timber-Roshfall Forest Or Ruby Dragons In Centra Forests. :D
Does not work on Ochu in Timber. I've tried several times and for some reason it won't allow them to respawn after doing this method
@@TyroneDonald Make Sure It's Timber-RoshFall Forest Your Trying To Find Them In. I Think They Are Also Findable In The NON-SNOW Forests In Trabia-Hawkwind Plains As Well.
@@RedMarioXIIINanaki36 yup I tried that part as well as the the one by Mandy Beach and Yaulny Canyon in the forest. For some reason 2 Anacondaurs appear with 1st strike. Kept trying it for hours now
@@TyroneDonald The Anacondaurs Are Useful If Your Trying To Win Some Dragon Skins Drops From Low Level Ones For Zell's Gauntlet Or Ehrgeiz Weapons. And With 2 You Have A Fair Chance. It's "When" You Finish The Battle That The Game Determines What Item Drops You Get.
@@RedMarioXIIINanaki36 yeah I got Zell's Ultimate. Trying to get Rinoa's Ultimate before the end of Disc 2. But you're saying "when" you finish a battle determines your drop. So you mean how fast I beat an enemy depends on its drop?
I've been farming T Rex east of Balamb by hard reset the game... Stumble this by accident 🤣
In the ps1 console and emulator I did this trick the blue dragon spawns kinda fast less than 3-4 mins. Thanks Mr Fuzz..
Does this work on Elnoyles for Energy Crystal's??
Probably so. There’s a better trick for them, though. Just go to the screen with a guy in green that laughs “Hehehehah” when you talk to him in Estar, and you’ll fight an elnoyl. If you leave the screen and come back, the guy respawns.
There's 3 ways you can farm Energy Crystals.
A. The guy in the back at the Cafeteria. Play cards. 20 El's give you 1 EC.
B. Do this video's RNG trick in the lanes of Esthar outside the city (works with EVERY rare encounter in game)
C. There is a guy who laughs 'hehehe' in Esthar (its 1 screen to the left of when Lunatic Pandora passes through the city at Point 2). Kill that guy, leave the screen and return. He respawns. Unlimited Moon stones (for Irvine ultimate) and EC's (For Squall Ultimate)
@FuzzFingerGaming Disc 3 after lunar cry. West of Esthar - between intercontinental train bridge and Westend of Estar road. Between the Red road and Blue Road, there is a white texture on the road. ELNOYLES spawn there. Good for HOLY draw and ENERGY CRYSTALS
and talk to the man in black , elnoyles battle and you can respawn him. just leave the screen and come back
It actually works everywhere.(and you do not need to encounter one first . . . Just go to the area. save. quit. and reload) Adamantoises on the beach . . . Ruby dragons in the woods on Centra. Chimeras in the Kashkabald Desert, T-Rexaurs in the woods by Balamb and so on and so on!
If you do anything other than walk after you reload (enter the menu etc.) It messes it up! Battle. save. quit and reload and Boom! another rare monster!
Another strategy is levelling up ruby dragons & carding them for either their 2 fury fragment common drops or their 2 energy crystals rare drops. Using the rng manipulation to guarantee it spawning.
I actually took this strategy and used it on tri-face on island closest to heaven along with the x3 speed was able to farm curse spikes.
Best place to farm cursed spikes is in the second save area at deep sea lab with enc-none. 5 fixed encounters everytime you reenter the screen.
So we've got confirmation that this works on the world map. I wonder if this would still work for indoor areas when near a save point. I see no reason why it shouldn't but if anyone knows for sure, lemme know! I'm about to check for myself, so if no one confirms before then (or if I just missed a comment somewhere), I'll come back to update and edit my comment.
EDIT: Can confirm that this still works on indoor areas as well. I tried it both escaping and killing mobs. 5/5 escaped from 2 Grats in Balamb Training Center and then 5/5 killing 2 Grats in Balamb Training Center. I think it's safe to say that no matter where you are, as long as you save, exit, and reload between each desired enemy encounter, it will repeat after every reload.
Happy farming, Final Fantasy fans!!
Brilliant, all this new info you guys have tested and discovered since the video went up makes this RNG method even more useful!
And given the fact that you can turn off enemy encounters with the touch of a button, anyone can easily get their desired encounter, mug and/or kill, turn of battles, and then run to a save point anywhere, save, quit, load, an repeat for literally any encounter anywhere. Just depends on how motivated someone is to farm whatever it is they're looking for.
At least you should be able to in theory. In the Balamb Training Center, I had to load a new area between where the battle occurred and where the save point is located and that didn't appear to make a difference.
wow, this only works with the remastered version. Not the original version steam sells. eyeroll lol
Go to the island closest to hell for good monsters.
Oh so this is new I found the blue dragon spawn on accident
This should work anywhere with a Behemoth encounter right? I'm you can use it for fixed Devours even after killing Ultima and drawing Eden, which would be AMAZING. Can't wait to try it.
If this technique can work with any monster on the world map this would be a great way to farm 4 cactaur every fight
@FuzzFingerGaming we need Snow Lion Silver Mail drop 😭😭.
For Silver → Gold → Diamond → Elem Guard
THUMBS UP! Worked on Ruby Dragon in the forest next to Edea's house. Heap thanks! ^^
You're welcome :)
I found a specific forest spot that allowed me to save quit and reload then go in a clockwise circle everytime I got a blue dragon I also realism that by using the atb cheat that attacking with Zell, squall mug , then Rinoa then squall mug,followed by Rinoa card always yielded 2 fury fragments and garentees a successful card so the attack order also likely affects the RNG
wish i knew this when i farmed my 100 curse spikes in balamb md level... took me forever and tri face either shows up or avoids the crap out of me, very tiring after only 1 hour.... does this work on him? i like shockwave pulsar but omg this is so long and tedious...
I believe it only works on the world map so your efforts weren't in vain. I wish I didn't forget to farm tri-faces in MD Garden. I just finished it god damnit
It doesn’t seem work if trying to respawn enemy Grendel. 2 Anacondaur instead that’s spawn. Correct me if I’m wrong! Nice video btw
You can make Grendel spawn 100% of the time with out Random number generator manipulation. The forest near Galbadia garden hug the left mountain side and just run back and forth but just stay in the forest. The will spawn every encounter with out fail. If you get something else it’s because you weren’t touching the base of the mountain or you left the forest or something. That’s the best way to get the Tiamat card early.
This is even better than I thought. Did the T-Rexaur trick and carding. Worked everytime but I never got the Shumi card. Fought two Glacial Eyes with one of them carding to the Jumbo Cactuar card the other one just the normal one. Did the trick again, Two Glacial Eyes, one giving me the normal card the other a Jumbo. Order does change(sometimes first one give the Jumbo and the second giving the regular card and vice versa.) But 5 times in a row, will keep testing.
13 in a row, so it seems to be working. Now I'll try with a single enemy. There's something strange going on. After carding a single enemy and getting the Jumbo, now after resetting I always get in battle with two enemies but the second one always has the Jumbo card. Currently 1 hour and 40 minutes playtime with 28 Jumbo Cactuar cards.
Saving twice over the same file before resetting will break the RNG.
T-Rexaur isn't working thinking that has to do with the amounts of attacks before carding. Will try it out.
@@Zhadum456 I can get 100% encounter no matter how it's killed, as long as it's a world map monster and I am running around in circles in a small area close to the place I last encountered the monster after loading the save. This game uses a pseudo RNG for everything. The RNG used for encounters, RNG used for angelo searching, RNG used for item drops, RNG used for mugging, RNG used for card rule manipulation etc etc all act individually and independently of each other but in the end it's not true RNG. It's a fixed pattern which you can replicate. I'm not kidding about this. You can do a fixed pattern of killing monsters in a battle to manipulate drops as well.
Explanation: This is rather technical stuff which most won't understand. The reason why you have to save and hard reset for this to work is that RNG value is also reset to its initial position when you do a hard reset. So let's assume you killing T-rex is the last known position of this RNG value. When you save the game right after killing T-rex without doing anything else, this data is also saved. But without saving, if you move around to a new location right after or encounter another monster this RNG value is moved to a new position. Therefore you won't get the same previous encounter. Hard resetting and loading the save, loads the exact RNG position you last saved at so the encounter happens again as long as you don't stray too far from the location you saved at. This same concept applies to every single RNG manipulation in this game because that's how simple Pseudo RNG works. Picks off from the last known/saved data and treats that as the new initial position. PRNG is most of the time reproducible as long as outside factors are similar. So you can actually call this Pattern Matching as repeated patterns is what's happening here.
Does exiting the game do a hard or soft reset? I'm playing the original game and it doesn't seem to work.
this isnt working for me, what could i be doing wrong?
I concur.I discovered this while farming Elnoyle after I unlocked Odin on a low level play through. I would save after every Elnoule fight in case Odin appeared. Soon I noticed that every time I loaded my save I would get an Elnoyle fight.
Dude elvoret? Or Elnoyle?
@@ronaldmaynes4514 Elnoyle, idk what I was thinking.
Does anyone knows u can encounter vysage outside timber near beach. I accidentally encounter them while grinding items using mug attack
Have you tried this method in Kashkabald Desert? It force spawns Chimera's (card mod 10 -> 1 Regen Ring)
Does this one work on the PSX version of FF8? I am currently playing that one.
Damm mate. It works. So hype. Thanks👍
It doesn't work for me at all, Help.
Isnt it just quicker to buy a bunch of hypno crowns (i think) from the esthar shop and refine them into aura stones>auras?
Why not put this video before the aero video in your playlist? You say in the video how nice it would be to have known this, yet this method is several videos later in the playlist.
it also works on behemoths if ur attempting to devour for magic stat boosts
does this works on the remaster version?
He wants his Fury Fragments back, man.
It works if you card it after mugging it
Tripel visage for flare and rare item maybe. When the gardens fight each other you will face at least one. I usually try to be in 30ish lvl range to have a chance on flare but lvl. Up plus this method might be better. Dunno if ot works there, though.
that also works with Edea when getting Malbora
Does this work with the original PSX version?
Nope not at all.
So you said it probably doesnt working you kill it (I havent tested but i agree it does seem that way) but can you Card them? Because carding isnt technically killing and doesnt net you exp
I just tested it. Killed a blue dragon, saved/exit, and another blue dragon first time. Worked 5/5 times!
I haven't tested it, but I would assume carding wont work because it puts the enemy in a "defeated" state, which would in turn, likely move the game's RNG onto the next random monster encounter once initiated. "Defeated" doesn't technically have to mean killed. "Defeated" means anything that triggers the victory fanfare to play and the characters to do their victory poses. So while carding will not kill the enemy in question, it will "defeat" the enemy in question, resulting in battle victory. Which I would assume will break the RNG and ruin this exploit.
I think the reason this is working is because instead of winning the battle, you're running from it. This in turn causes the game to store the last enemy you battled into memory until you either beat it or initiate another random battle within the same session to break the RNG chain. Since you're saving and reloading, the battle data is saved into your file then dumped as the "next enemy you fight" once you reload your save. Thus, you will always fight it until you have either won or immediately seek out another battle.
@@crawlingkhaos8970 but what if you were card farming something that didnt appear alone you could card one enemy then run right?
Edit: apparently it still works with killing (according to a pinned comment on this video) so guess it works either way lol
this isn't working on steam version :( can anyone confirm?
can this be applied to tri-faces?
I don't have exit menu why?
I farmed isle of heaven and hell for 80 % chance to spawn ruby or Isolde dragons in the PS1 version .
Why this is not the right farming route?
I mean I can find 20dragons by the time you get 1
I can confirm it does not work on the PS1 discs when played on the PS1 and PS3.
It doesn't Work on the Original PS1 version
Holy FF8!
what level do you have to be at to get blitz to drop power generator? cuz i messed up during the Laguna dream effect by not opening all three levers in Lunatic Pandora
Lvl 30+ and it has a 5% chance to mug it. It doesnt drop them.
i'm not sure the level required but getting them to drop that item ...... gonna take weeks of farming
Where do you encounter the blitz enemy?
Blitzes can be found in Lenown Plains, big forest very close to Edea’s house. It also houses Ruby Dragons.
Did he junction cure magic to his attack?
Does this work if you card the baddie?
Yes, it does.
I tried this and it didn't respond, but I killed the enemy
Has this been tested on the ps3 version?
Is this game has a "save game plus" after you finish the game?
No. X-2 and Lightning Returns are, as far as I know, the only Final Fantasy titles with NG+. The remaster of FF12 (Zodiac Age) sort of has a NG+ option, but only in the sense that it starts you off at level 90 or so, but you don't get to keep anything from your previous playthrough. So it's more of a "Strong Mode" and less of a NG+.
lol if this game had a NG+ mode it would be no fun at all because you would be so OP you could literally finish it in like a day or less.
@@crawlingkhaos8970 NG+ is avaliable also in XV, although I dont think the is worthy to play twice.
It works great with T-Rexxar when you start devouring for stats, also good for malboros when you have edea and you wanna power level your gf's
I went to island of Hell but I think it works on Ruby Dragon. (Devour)
Can anyone confirm if this works on the PSX??
@Bush Ninja Thanks for the reply, I'll have to try it out when I replay it. I remember finding it hard to come across rare enemies, this will help!
Dont work
Its work on every monstwers in every forests?
will it works on my psvita?
Where can I find Marlboro every time
USE this RNG method outside of Esthar BEFORE the Lunar Cry disc 3 events and it will trigger 100% Malboro encounters on disc 3.
Who is Alren Jae and why are we trying to manipulate him?
Does this work on the original psx version?
*EDIT* Doesn't look like it does = (
No :(
@@broncofan99 Oh ho ho.. I see you are playing. Enjoy the very convoluted plot! lol

How were you able to keep such a low level up to this point? I haven't gotten there yet as I just started disc 2, and my characters are about level 36. Anyhow thank you for your videos.
Keeping a low level is a challenge in itself. It's much easier in the Remaster though since you can simply toggle random encounters on and off without having to get Diablos to learn Enc-None first and wasting an ability slot.
After that it's a matter of avoiding EXP when grinding AP by using Quetzacotl's Card ability, or avoiding XP in other forced encounters by casting Break on the enemies which turns them to stone and nets you 0XP.
Other than that, everything flagged as a "boss" gives 0XP to begin with. The reason you're level 36 is because you are fighting random encounters normally.
I did the seifer challenge you level him up to 100 while your other party are k.o. during the dollet mission then draw all your encounter with high level magic up to max then use it as a junction to raise ur stats now junction one of ur player a card ability so everytime u encounter a monster lower their hp then use card ability so u would not gain any experienced to level up
doesn't work on switch
Doesn't work on Cactuars. Every time I try it I get a chimera to spawn lol..what a shame too
You can 100% spawn cactuar on disc 2. Go to the Kashkabald Desert head SOUTH until the location changed to Cactuar Island. (although you are not in the island itself, the location name will change) cactuar spawns 100% of the time

You gave the great Diablo to Rinoa, he belongs to squall 😎
That is pretty cool. One thing I don't understand. What is the MUG ABILITY and how I get it? Which GF has it? I ask because I am from Austria and I play the German Version of the game and I don't know what the Mug Ability called there.
Diablos has the mug ability
Mug is from Diablos
Oh ok. I thank you both :) I will try it later :)
Bahamut also has the Mug option plus the Rare Item option which is very helpful
Ok. Sadly I don't have Bahamut now. I just started with CD 3. But good to know :)
Devour monsters for stats INTENSIFIES
Can anyone confirm if this works on all enemies???
Evan Mino yea he confirmed it at the end of the video
I seem to recall a method to get curse spikes early when I was a kid playing on ps1 but i cant remember details.
probably galbadia garden attack
@@KnightzANT maybe. That feels right but I'm still just after dollet so I cant test atm
You can farm them from card if ur into the card game.
@@chathao1315 there's two really good spots to farm curse spikes, a certain level in the Hidden Research center and the room with Cerberus in Galbadia garden
@@KnightzANT you can get it before the ifirt fight I'm just saying you dont need to farm it off mob n just card all day
Oh..but you can card it for the biss card as well so..
you can utilize the auto save function instead of saving every time. junction pain to your mugging character's attack to help things along
If you buy 60 power wrist absurd I know. But refine those into 10 aura stones. Way faster!
True, but this can be done on disc 2, where you can't buy Power Wrists until disc 3...
@@whiteeeveeangel If you get Tonberry and learn his Familiar ability, Power Wrists can be bought in certain shops making it possible to buy them on disc two, I used this same method to get the bracelet needed for Rinoa's Ultimate weapon when the only other source for it is from the pupu spaceship drop which can only be encountered on disc 3 as well.
@@blakearmentrout7717 Umm... No they can't. The only shop that sells them is the Esthar Pet Shop, which isn't accessible until disc 3 (and still requires Familiar to have access). You also can't refine Power Wrists until you have the GFAblMed-RF ability, which is only accessible from Eden, which also isn't accessible until disc 3, so Fury Fragments are your only consistent bet to get Aura spells on disc 2...
@@whiteeeveeangel I level Tonberry' Familiar and buy Force Armlets for Rinoa from Timber Pet Shop on disk 2 by using the Cactaur farming spot in the desert, Trust me you can, now as far as buying Power Wrists I have to double check if there on the list as well, according to the guide you can also get them from the spider in dollet rare chance, and steal them from grendal at lvl 30 which can be found on disc 2, and you dont need Eden ether, you can turn 1 in into 10 Aura using Tool-Refine, you need Eden if you are going to make the power Wrists using scrolls, you had your recipe backwards im afraid
@@whiteeeveeangel yeah I just checked, you are indeed correct atleast about not being able to buy them before Esthar Pet Shop even with Familiar, however you can still steal them from the lvl 30 grendals if you wanted them sooner. guides.gamercorner.net/ffviii/items/power-wrist
