FF8 Scan Guess

[Squall Lionheart]

Since not many games require much thinking, this one should be diffrent unless someone cheats...

Try identifying the scan and put your own if you're correct, but try putting it as accurate as you can...

Here's the first one:

A large venomous snake that uses squeeze attacks.
Use caution when its HP are low; it spits poisonous fluid.

Remember this is for FF8...

[John Smith]

Anacondaur.

Uses powerful magic, such as Meteor. A strong enemy that is very hard to defeat.

[Spec Highwind]

Hum... I will not participate in this spam game, but... are the scans fictional, or from the game?

[John Smith]

From the game, of course. Haven't you read the 1st post? :p

[Spec Highwind]

Yes, but... You have to be really addited to the game to remember the scans @_@

[John Smith]

Some are easy. See the Anacondaur? Its description matches it's physical appearance.

The one I made is pretty easy too, because it's one of the few monsters that use that kind of magic. I think that it is the only one actually O_o

[Spec Highwind]

But how do you know exactly what the scan says in the game? O.O Do you search for it?

[John Smith]

Concentrate on a scannable thing in FF8 and you'll remember something of the scan sometime.

[Squall Lionheart]

Anacondaur.

Uses powerful magic, such as Meteor. A strong enemy that is very hard to defeat.

I'm not sure, but normally a Ruby Dragon is the enemy that uses much meteor and has good physical stats...

[Phoenix Flame]

Yes, but... You have to be really addited to the game to remember the scans @_@

[John Smith]

I'm not sure, but normally a Ruby Dragon is the enemy that uses much meteor and has good physical stats...

Ruby Dragon uses Meteor? O_o

Ok, it's not as hard to defeat as Ruby Dragon :p

[Squall Lionheart]

Uses powerful magic, such as Meteor. A strong enemy that is very hard to defeat.

Meteor can be drawn from Ruby Dragon as well...
Then it's Behemoth...

Likes to live in forests.
Attacks with its tentacles and also uses status-changing attacks.

[John Smith]

Yes, it was a Behemoth :p

Is that one a Behemel?

[Squall Lionheart]

No, Belhelmel can be found in plains...

Notice: It has strong tentacles used to remodel weapons, but they're weaker than a Malboro's...

[Zeromus_X]

Is it Ochu?

[Squall Lionheart]

Correct...
You can ask now...

[Squall Lionheart]

Fine I'll put another one:

It's body is mostly a digestive bag.
Digests enemies by catching them with its vine.
Uses a gas attack that causes Sleep.

[dappa]

them creatures that live in the training centre. Cant remember their names

[Squall Lionheart]

It's name is Grat, you can ask now...

[dappa]

smart dragon which mirrors its enemies attacks. If your characters are using reflect it will cast reflect upon itself to mirror the attack.

(its been ages since I played this game but I'm pretty sure the scan was worded along those lines)

[Squall Lionheart]

Ruby Dragon...

[dappa]

Correct

You can guess now

[Squall Lionheart]

A large, insect-type monster that is a survivor of some ancient race. Uses its large spikes and tail to attack.

[dappa]

argghh I'm crap at remembering monsters names

I think its those creatures that live on the esthar continent (and under general cararways mansion in the sewers) which attack with bubbles.

[John Smith]

A large insect with spikes and a tail and attacks with them... That's a toughie...

[Squall Lionheart]

dappa isn't even close...

An easy hint: Sis was attacked by that monster...

[dappa]

Its not not that wasp like monster you come across in balamb garden is it?

let me think, is its name granaldo?

[John Smith]

An easy hint: Sis was attacked by that monster...

That gave it all away -_-''

Since when does granaldo have spikes?! O_O

[Squall Lionheart]

Correct, any of you can ask...

[dappa]

An easy one

Stronger than ultima weapon, It is really bad luck to come across this monster

(worded along those lines)

[John Smith]

Ahem... let me see... the only moster harder than Ultima Weapon is Omega Weapon, so I guess Omega Weapon :rolleyes:

[dappa]

correct

You can guess now.

[John Smith]

I can^? Wow, like, what? :D j/k

I'll pass :)

[dappa]

used to be a gf, but was enlisted by ultimeacia
his flare attack destroys all enemies

(worded along those lines)

[Squall Lionheart]

Tiamat...

[dappa]

yep

you can guess

[Squall Lionheart]

Esthar's defective weapon.
Attacks enemies and allies alike.
Degenerator destroys opponents.

[John Smith]

Defective?! ROFL!

No idea :confused:

Are you sure that you meant "weapon"?

[Squall Lionheart]

Yeah...I'm sure

[dappa]

He's talking about those esthar robots that look like overgrown teletubbies.

Laguna and co come across them at the esthar dig and at doc odines laboratory.

I can remember their names though.

[Squall Lionheart]

...........

So far you've only remembered one name only...

I'm not sure if that counts...

[dappa]

terrible aint it

[Squall Lionheart]

...The monster's name is Gesper

Fine...go ahead and ask

[John Smith]

Lol, they're weapons? Okay...:rolleyes:

[Cloud101]

Are they the machines that you fight inside the Lunatic Pandora!? Ya'know, when you had control of Zell, they kicked you off of it, but later you come back with control of Squall, and kill them. Is that them!?

[John Smith]

Gesper:

http://finalfantasy.gamigo.de/ff8/images/karten/Gesper.jpg

[Squall Lionheart]

What kicked Zell out of Lunatic Pandora was Mobile Type 8, a very advanced weapon from Esthar...
Gespers are an old weapon from Esthar as well from Laguna's time, he fought them twice both in Lunatic Pandora...the weapons are defective because they attack their own party members sometimes, underestimate them and their Degenerator will kill you...both weapons abilities can be used by Quistis' Blue Magic Limit Break: Degenerator from Gesper and Homing Laser from Mobile Type 8

[John Smith]

You're our FF8 Wikipedia :p

[Cloud101]

Hahahahahha!!!!!

[John Smith]

What? :p :D Is it that funny?! :confused:

[Squall Lionheart]

Enough messing around...

dappa I believe it's your turn to ask...

[Cloud101]

Make it one that will stump even the all mighty Squall Lionheart :p

[John Smith]

That'll be very easy :p[/sarcasm]

Anyway, I don't thinnk that he's coming that soon...

[Cloud101]

Yeah, he's probably working right now...

[dappa]

A Transfer student to Balamb Garden
Uses giant Shinobu and special magic

[Squall Lionheart]

Nunchaku...That's Selphie

[John Smith]

Where's your scan?

[Squall Lionheart]

Just waiting to make sure I didn't guess it wrong...
Fine here is one:

Earth GF in Tomb of the Unknown King. Recovers by power of the earth.
Attacks with large steel orb.

[John Smith]

Uh oh... I can never distinguish those two >.< Can it be... Minotaur?

[Squall Lionheart]

No...It's Sacred the younger brother who was found on the pedestal...

[John Smith]

Dude... :rolleyes:

[Squall Lionheart]

Just go ahead...

[John Smith]

Fine... :rolleyes:

A large left hand coming from the earth. Sometimes cures party members with status abnormalities.

[jedi geoff]

is it the thing you fight on the train? the one you think is president deling?

[dappa]

Its one of those monsters with the hands which stick out of the ground. Lefty and righty

Though I think the scan was from lefty.

[John Smith]

Yes, it is Lefty, dappa.

Your turn now :p

[John Smith]

*cough cough*

[jedi geoff]

*gets john smith's cough*

*cough cough*

[Squall Lionheart]

To avoid this from happening again if someone doesn't show up for 2 days then anyone else can ask instead...make sure when you say something that it's not waisting other people's time...

[dappa]

My turn.

Lives in humid places
It sneak-attacks humans that pass by
Uses status attack when fully grown.

[Squall Lionheart]

Geezard...
Fought them alot...

[dappa]

Correct

[Squall Lionheart]

Here's one...

An older type of Galbadian weapon. Has a laser cannon, but mostly punches using the steel orbs on both hands.

[John Smith]

I don't know the name, but it's those blue-ish machines that you fight when you escape from the D-District prision :p

Or not xD

Squall, surprise me :)

To avoid this from happening again if someone doesn't show up for 2 days then anyone else can ask instead...make sure when you say something that it's not waisting other people's time...

Ok...

[Squall Lionheart]

Fine...

You're wrong...

[dappa]

Is it a boss monster from lunatic pandora?

[Squall Lionheart]

Not really, but it has a chain gun...

[dappa]

It sounds like those galbadian robots you come across in the d-district prison, either the golden ones or those lizard like ones.

[Squall Lionheart]

GIM47N, the machine colored yellow...

[dappa]

Shall I put a scan or do you want to put another scan squall?

Its up to you.

[Slider]

No you shan't! :p

I wanna try:" A bug monster that flies, stays calm and attacks precisely. Not a very strong enemy" (should be something like this)

[dappa]

Bite bug

[Slider]

right :)

[John Smith]

Eh, dappa, don't you want to post a quote?

[Slider]

I'll try one!
i pasted it from somewhere, so it should be exact

"Its high defense ability makes it difficult to defeat. Owns rare items that make it worth the effort."

[John Smith]

Adamantoise?

Adamantine is rare. :rolleyes:

[Slider]

True! :eek:

[John Smith]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! =P My turn! =D

"A strong monster, but not good at using magic. Uses powerful physical attacks, relying on its strength instead."

It's not a hard one. :p

[Slider]

[John Smith]

Sorta.

[Slider]

[John Smith]

Not completely green.
