Gotta try again.

Ouch. And I thought I was ahead of the game since my current party is 61~64 in the Giant of Babil. Got slaughtered by Rubicante, since I can't carry my strategy from the last fight with him over to this one. Gonna probably have to grind to 75+ to beat him, I guess.

I hope to be a pile of bones at the center of the moon tonight.

Yays! I've done it! My levels were Kain 64, Rosa 66, Cecil 67, Rydia 66, Edge 63.

That's strange, because that's what my levels typically are in the SNES/GBA version, but at area's this time around I was at strangely high levels in different places comparatively. Such as level 45 and Rubicante (first fight) when I'm usually ike 30~35ish.

So it is possible Jowy! It should actually be easier for you because your levels are higher than mine. I was 55-58ish in Giant of Babil, and 59-62ish entering the core.

Anticipation plays a great deal in the Zeromus fight.

By the way, Cid gets the "best line in the game" award: To Cecil and Rosa- "You'll have time later to get all that lovey-dovey stuff out of your system!"

Yeah, I noticed my levels being higher than usual as well. I never have Blizzaga when I get to the first encounter with Rubicante, nor Thundaga for Odin. Died again at Rubicante in the four fiends encounter, I probably just need to slow down the damage I'm trying to toss at him while his cloak's up.

I am currently at the Lodestone Cavern. I like the new translation and the throwbacks to other, recent Final Fantasy games as it establishes core themes and terminology in the Final Fantasy series.

So Jamil, what's your stance on the increased difficulty?

Yaridovich · 07-29-2008, 09:13 PM

Jowy have you finished yet?

Jowy · 07-30-2008, 02:15 AM

Nope, taking an intermission because I keep getting my head handed to me by the CPU/Attacker/Defender. Probably gonna try and pick it up tomorrow, three deaths on it today was sort of stressful.
