Final Fantasy VIII

Easy experience:
----------------
Equip one character with Auto-Haste, Initiative, and Junction 100 Pain spells
to their attack. They will go first, and blind/poison/silence the target monster
(this works well against Behemoths). Have another character cast Zombie on the
helpless monster, and have the third character use the Revive ability on the
Zombied monster. Behemoths cannot see to counter attack, and Silence keeps them
from using their high-level magic. In all Final Fantasy games, undead monsters
are injured by curative magic, and killed by Life spells, Phoenix Downs, etc.
Use this technique when fighting the Behemoths in the Deep Sea Research Center
on the south-western-most corner of the world map to accumulate experience and
build your characters. Note: This only works on monsters that are susceptible
to Death magic. Bosses are immune to this trick, as are Ruby Dragons and Imps.
Those opponents must be killed by traditional means; however the Diablos summon
kills most Imps in one hit.

By using hex cheat,you can get 99 items of rank A or any rank you want
each time you transfer Chocobo to your game.
First, open hexeditor,open a chocobo's save files in where you setup your
FF VIII (example: C:\SquareSoft INC\FFVIII\), then in the first line, you
will see the number of Item you can have at rank A, B, C D and also your
hitpoints, current levels, etc... Change them to 99 and each time you
transfer data, you will get any item you want.I dont remember exactly
the address where HP, number Items and Level store, but i'm sure it
extremly easy. You can find it by yourself

When you travel past the balamb garden, you will encounter T-Rexaur, the
dinosaur that is extremely strong in that garden. It's hit points is about
11,000 whereas Squall's is just around 600-700. So this is very difficult
to destroy him you may escape but your stats may go down. The T-Rexaur hits
with its tail and bites his enemies that causes a considerable amount of
damage say about 200-300 hit points. In order to defeat this bad one, just
use the blind spell on him so that he becomes totally blind and again cast
the sleep spell that makes him doze. Now summon the GF (Guardian Force)
Leviathan that causes water damage and other GF which causes Ice damage
(I forgot the name of the GF but you may know). This will kill him easily
and you will get M-Stone Piece that contains high magical power. If more
doubts persists, Mail me.

For unlimited free random items open and play Chocobo World
after you've got your Chicobo and accumilate a few items
(I sugest you get a few of each as it makes it easier).
Then with Chocobo World (its best to go into the menu
otherwise you may encounter problems if you accidently
go into battle) still running open FFVIII and bring your
Chicobo 'HOME' and you'll recieve some random items, then
send you Chicobo to 'WORLD'. Press Alt-TAB to switch to
Chocobo World and press Ctrl twice to go out and back into
of the menu and you'll see you still have the items, so go
back to FFVIII and just repeat the process as many times as
you like as long as you don't bring you Chicobo 'HOME'
without Chocobo World running.

NOTE: I sugest you save once in a while as this cheat may
crash your game

Low level advantages:
---------------------
Since the enemies level up as you do, try to keep your
level as low as possible for easier battles.
As long as your magic is good, defeating your opponents
will not be a problem. Draw high level magic when your
level is low to increase your status.

Increasing stats:
-----------------
You can increase all your stats by using GF Eden's Devour
ability by eating the following:

Hp: Rinoa in Adel + 10 HP, Ruby Dragon + 10 HP
Str: T-Rexaur + 1 Str
Vit: Adamantoise + 1 Vit
Mag: Behemoth + 1 Mag
Spr: Malboro + 1 Spr
Spd: Pu Pu + 1 Spd

Easy gil:
---------
Tonberry's Haggle and Sell High abilities as well as
Carbuncle's Recovery Medicine Refining ability must be
learned for this trick. Obtain 75,000 gil and by 100
Tents from any shop. Refine them into 25 Mega-Potions,
which can be sold for 7,500 gil each. This results in
a profit of 105,000 gil.

Build a high speed level, the Rare item ability, hit at
255%, and a high strength stat. Go to Cactuar Island and
fight Cactuars. You will usually acquire an item called
Jet Engine, which can be sold for 150000 gil.

Ending scene:
-------------
Allow the credits to complete after the final FMV sequence
to see Squall and Rinoa.

Quick movement in Balamb Garden:
--------------------------------
When first at Balamb Garden, after you give the tour to
Selphie, approach the the directory and press Action.
When the directory screen appears, move the pointer to
where to wish to go and press Action. You will appear in
the hallway in front of that location. Note: This only
works at the beginning of the game.

GameTip:
--------
DO NOT GO ON TO THE TRAIN IN THE TOWN IF YOU DO NOT HAVE
GOOD FIGHTING TOOLS

Hints
-----
Draw, draw, draw. Always take the opportunity to siphon
some of your enemy's power with at least one of your
party members during a battle. You never know when your
opponent is going to have something vital or cool.

When you get a new party member, remember to junction a
GF to him or her and try to give the new member some
abilities that will help you out in fights. For example,
it helps if at least one person in your party can use the
Item skill in combat.

When you're fighting the big monster boss at the top of
the communication tower, don't forget to draw on him. He
has Siren, an important GF, and if you don't draw it from
him in that fight, you won't find it elsewhere in the game.

Dancing soldiers on control panel:
----------------------------------
You can toy around a bit with the Missile Control Panel.
Choose to go to the equipment inspection screen to see the
equipment used by the Galbadian Army. Hold Triangle + Square
and press Up or Down. The scene will switch to either a dancing
Galbadian Soldier or Elite Soldier.

In 1st disk, after defeat the boss on the communication tower, u'll be given 30
mins to run to the beach. But on the way there, u'll encounter a robot spider
(i don't know it real name). This is a great chance to increase your GF's AP.
This is the tip for u to get the AP. Firstly, remember to set your GF before
going down the tower. When you encounter the spider, attack it until it is down,
then attack it until it stand up (if you wait for it to stand up, you won't get
any AP), and knock it down again, then run. every time you do it, you 'll get
50 AP. For 30 mins you can knock it 6-7 times, means 300-350 AP (such a lot huh?).

Hidden song:
------------
Place the game disc in an audio CD player and play track two to hear the
song "Eyes On Me" by Faye Wong.

More HP:
--------
Have magic Full-Life, learn GF HP-j and HP +80%. Equip Full-Life on HP Magic and
have Ability HP +80% equipped.

Low level advantages:
---------------------
Since the enemies level up as you do, try to keep your level as low as possible
for easier battles. As long as your magic is good, defeating your opponents will
not be a problem. Draw high level magic when your level is low to increase your
status.

Saving money:
-------------
This trick will save 50,000 Gil. When Balamb is under Galbadian control, go to
Zell's room and save the game. Go to the Harbor. You will find a Tabloid Reporter
hiding behind military vehicles. Pay him for all the information he has then reset
the game. You will have all the information, and still have your money.

9999 Health:
------------
Get to level 43 or higher and draw or refine an item into 100 Curaga. Do not level
up. Instead Junction 100 Curaga to HP. If you are not at 9999 HP, put on HP +20%,
HP +40%, or HP +80 %.

Lunch Lady's kid:
-----------------
if you talked to the Lunch Lady to the left in the Garden, she will tell you about
her son and how he went out on his own. You can actually meet him after the Boss
Battle in FH (with BGH251F2). In this part of the game, you will be left alone.
Meet up with Irvine at the top of the elevator, then go back the area where you
just fought the Boss and talk to the teenager in yellow.
If you ask if he is the Lunch Lady's son he will board the Garden.
