Figitng Malboro

benoit · 01-18-2006, 12:02 PM

Hi man, I would like to know that if anyone have any tips on fighting malboro, because to me, he is the hardest monster to fight

Squall Leonhart · 01-18-2006, 01:58 PM

Get status-jx4 on Squall and junction 100 pain, confuse, break, and 100 sleep.(100 on all junctions or it won't work!!!!!!!) Squall will be on berserk and take up more damage.(also try to junction 100 drains to Squall status attack for healing purposes.)

believe me, that monster gave me more than my fair share of frustration. (especially trying to make the solomon's ring for doom train.)

if youre too afraid to fight it, (which is perfectly understandable), equip "initiative" and "mug" to a character, and just try and steal the tentacles. if you fail, run away, and try again. (you can run away when statused.)

at least, thats all i saw the point of fighting marlboros. or try junctioning all of those spells. (but good luck getting them all...)

That's not difficult at all, Zeromus

Zeromus_X · 01-18-2006, 06:56 PM

i guess i was just too lazy drawing magic

then again, alot of those spells could be found on the islands closest to heaven/hell..so not so much work.

I spent my time drawing Pains from that big wasp thing in Balamb 2nd disc with 100 to Squall, Zell, and Irvine

yeah he is a pain in the ass lion heart i agre with you drain is good sleep is ok pain i not use that on him .

Squall Lionheart · 01-24-2006, 01:07 AM

I would prefer to junction Pain,DEATH,confuse,& probably berserk.....
then again Initiative & high Luck Junction would help more than you think in Battle...
I for myself add treatment so I don't loose control of the fight...
Finaly, there is always the desperate Mad Rush

I hate them malboros. If you go to grandidi forest early in the game which I tend to do for power levelling you dont have all those status juncions *4. So it was kinda frustrating and time consuming fighting them especially if the computer decides to throw severall of them in a row.

neokiller · 11-28-2006, 08:16 AM

why dont u use ribbon its a lot better

dappa · 11-28-2006, 03:11 PM

Ribbon? there is no armour in ff8

Though it would sort out all your probs with malboro if it was possible

John Smith · 11-28-2006, 05:24 PM

You can use Ribbon.

If I'm not mistakened (Ido believe that I am XD), it's an ability that you can train from Bahamut

dappa · 11-29-2006, 09:09 AM

But dont ribbon protect from all statuses.

If thats the case you wouldn't need status junctions.

I suppose there may be different things in different area region versions

Squall Lionheart · 11-29-2006, 11:24 AM

Ribbon is an item and ability, but it's not learned by GF Bahamut, and it's not an armor either...
