"I'll cut them off" O.O
|
I don't think you should restart your game. Unlike any other Final Fantasy games, FFVIII's bosses level up as you do, so it's difficulty level-wise is going to be the same.(Meaning everything is basically the same level as you, your level won't matter much) The only other thing you could do differently is get better items, weapons and magic for use in battle. I wouldn't restart the entire game just to collect a handful of items and magic just to beat a certain boss. Just keep trying, you'll end up with a good strategy after a while. I think I actually had trouble with Adel too. But I always have trouble with certain RPGs since I usually use a full attack party. I almost always use all people who potentially do the most physical damage, and just keep supporting their attack and HP stats. I like tankers. =) High attack and HP, low intelligence and MP. As for a strategy, if you're really having a hard time, use two people for curing(both rinoa and your party) and one person for attacking. It'll take longer but it raises your chances of beating her. And usually if I'm really having a hard time on a boss, I'll go through a test round and see what kind of attacks(or magic) the boss is weak against. I'll see how many items(and magic, since FFVIII's magic system is basically like using items) I have in stock and make sure I know when it's okay to use them. Then I figure out the most effective strategy I can think of at the time. And with some skill and luck hopefully I can beat the boss the next time around. Takes some time, but it helps. |

I have a DS, but I can't recall my code at the moment. I'll have to check it when I get back from my piano lesson. Bye for now, everyone! |

Yikes, you're right- I didn't think about her getting stronger. That certainly does throw a huge wrench in my plans.I am afflicted by your same problem- I'm a heavy offensive player and I tend to not think too much about defense, though I do ok with magic (but Rinoa was my main magic girl, and obviously she's out of commission). Hence, why I'm having so much trouble with Adel. I can't just mow her down with the awesome power of my GF's- I have to be more subtle about it. I did start my game over, but I still have my original game and I keep trying to beat her. The best strategy I've come up with is one I believe illwaitforever1 offered up to me- I'm using Zell and his Limit Breaker to attack Adel, and having Squall heal Rinoa and Irvrine Cure everyone else. But so far I keep coming up short. I have gotten really close, but her friggen Meteor attack and Ultima keep wiping me out. *shakes fist* I do have 2 Heros to make my character's invincible for a time, but they only stall the inevitable defeat. Darn subtle fighting style! If only I could cut her chest open and pull Rinoa out of the way, then unleash my GF's. . .

:lol: Thanks but maybe you can just recommend me some of their best songs and I'll download them myself. ![]()
As I've noticed! :lol: There are fans in the Clerith LJ community who make fan soundtracks and most of the songs that are popping out are either from Steve Conte or Within Temptation. ^_^'
Have you tried downloading it from Limewire? |

AH! Okay, I remember that fight now. I didn't have a problem with Adel, I had a problem with killing Rinoa. I think I just casted regen on Rinoa and went out on a full attack on Adel with Squall and Zell. You can use Renzokuken on Adel, but just don't use the trigger so you won't activate the special Limit Break. Try keeping your people shielded.(I don't remember the shield names, Barrier? Protect? Use the ones that don't reflect) Cast aura on squall if you have any. Use Renzokuken on Adel.(Renzokuken Only) Cure Rinoa whenever you can. And usually what I do, is when I feel it's nearing the end of the battle I'll go all out and attack with all of my characters, kind of like a last spurt to the finish line. |

Oh, but that's so hard! All of their songs are so different. Their style in their first CD is completely different from their newest one and the one before it. I don't know, I'd definitely recommend Angels, Somewhere, Memories, The Howling, Hand Of Sorrow, Restless, Mother Earth, and Ice Queen. I could come up with some more later - if you don't count the music videos, I have fifty-five songs by them.

I would, but Limewire is full of viruses. I used to use it quite a bit, but then it killed my laptop. :angry: MistaCloudStrife:
*nods slowly* Ok, yeah, I think that sounds doable. I shall give that a couple of tries and let you know how that works out. I think I might have better luck with my second game since I've been getting all the summons and raising a good team that has a decent backup character for when I loose Rinoa. Lol, see, I wouldn't have a problem with Adel if I didn't have to worry about killing Rinoa in the process. <_< |

Divine Rose>> Thanks! :lol: I guess I'll just ask my "minions" to search for CDs for me. Haha. ![]()
It is? :o I never really noticed. The program itself is full of viruses or the downloaded files are the ones with viruses? *gets worried*

I went to Dear Friends and it was OK. Not great but not terrible. I wanted to bonk this chick dressed as Aerith who started acting all emotional and praying during Aerith's theme but eh. I absolutely wanted to run up on stage and claw JAT's eyes out. <_< I posted the guide book. It's here. It cost me $20. Hardly worth it when it comes right down to it. XD |
