[COLOR=deeppink]Ahem... Spoiler, possibly. Dunno if it counts.


Use Doomtrain right away. Ultimecia is weak to poison, and Doomtrain also causes weaker defense. Try an Aura Stone/Rensokuken combination. With two of those, you can beat just about any of her forms with two.

Don't try and spread out your GF's, put them evenly on three of your people. If you don't get these three, don't worry. Just heal the ones with GFs and let the others be absorbed into time.

The final form will wipe out a GF in one hit, so concentrate on your Renzokuken and other Desperations.

Hope that helps.[/COLOR]

[B][COLOR=deeppink]Yeah, I got the Lionheart, but is there like, a way to make sure you get THAT finishing move? 'Cause I always get Fated Circle or something else completely worthless.[/COLOR] [/B][/QUOTE]


[COLOR=deeppink]Nope, it's pretty much random.


Try stocking up on Meteor or Ultima from "The Island Closest to Heaven" or the "Island Closest to Hell". Just make sure you have No Encount on or you'll be in for a long time getting those draw points.


As soon as you get enough, junction them on Strength. That would help. Also, use Pulse Ammo or Destruction Ammo with Irvane.[/COLOR]

Ultimecia wasn't too hard...hm...just summon doomtrain to weaken her defenses, have Squall use Renzokuken (even w/o lionheart it's strong), and zell or irvine (w/ AP ammo) do the most damage, then just....set up shell and protect, and heal, don't bother w/ meteor or Ultima, limit breaks are the way to go

there is a draw magic which makes you do your limit, I can't remember what it was called, aura I think, concentrate on using this on squall all the time and keep doing renzokuken, also, have some hero's ready to make your characters invincible for a while....

[color=red][size=3]Some tips...
1) Cast Aura on everyone to allow you to use Limit Breaks.

2) Get Eden. You'll want the 130,000 points of damge it can cause.

3) Make sure you have everyones ultimate weapons, especially the Lion Heart.

4) Start off with Cerberus, then use triple to cast Haste, Protect, Shell, and Aura on everyone.[/color][/size]

Here's a common strategy that I found on the net for beating Ultimecia. It's quite effective and reliable.

[I]You may want to take out the use of Holy Wars to make your party invincible, because Rinoa can sometimes get the same basic thing when using Angie. I believe the attack was called the Invincible Moon. If nothing else, I suggest you have a lot of the Aura spell available, so that you can use Limit Breaks every turn. It also helps to have Squall?s Lion Heart, because it causes around 100,000 points of damage when the Lion Heart Limit Break is used.

You may have noticed that the last couple of forms of Ultimecia can kill a GF in a single shot. Don?t use your GFs unless you?re protected by Holy War, Invincible Moon, or Hero. These make your characters and your GFs invicible to any attack. Outside of that, you must keep everyone?s HP up and ensure that everyone is as fast as possible. If you boost everyone?s speed through Junctioning and then cast Haste on the entire party, you can attack nonstop. Also, cast Triple on everyone (or at least summon Cerberus) at the start of the fight. This should make it a lot easier to heal everyone and to cast Aura on your entire party.

Also, don't try to equip everyone before the battle with Ultimecia. You?ll spread yourself too thin if you equip absolutely everyone with GFs. Equip only the three you want to use the most, and then let everyone else get killed and absorbed. Soon enough, you?ll have your main party of three and then you can really unload on her.[/I]
