Introduction
============
Final Fantasy VIII has hit the US shores in September'99. Being an avid
fan, i have already import the version, and now, i am replaying the
US version. In this guide, it will cover the neccessity strategies and
tips needed for you to defeat the two weapons, Ultima and Omega. Yes,
that's right. Omega from FFV has returned and is quite possibly the
game's greatest challenge, and the most powerful baddies you will ever
encounter in the world of FFVIII. Well, do not fear since with the
right strategies and tactics used, Omega isn't near to impossible to
defeat. In fact, i have already beaten Omega weapon for more than five
times, without using a single hero or holy drink. I have also written
a couples of Final Fantasy VIII faq like a limit break guide, a card
guide and a boost/compatibility guide. If you have time, you might
want to look at them.

This faq is best viewed using wordpad wrapped to ruler.

I.I)Ultima Weapon
=======================================================================
 _____________________________________________________________________
|Info|After you have gotten G.F Bahamut, exit the island, and then    |
|    |enter the cockpit of the Ragnarok by pressing Triangle. Then, go|
|    |back to the research island with Zell in your party. On the spot|
|    |where you have just fought Bahamut, you should see a save point |
|    |and an underground tunnel. The path below will lead you to fight|
|    |Ultima Weapon and obtain the last G.F, Eden.                    |
|____|________________________________________________________________|
|Note|Zell is a compulsory character and you will know why later on.  |
|    |Be sure to enter the cockpit of the Ragnarok if you have not    |
|    |done so.                                                        |
|____|________________________________________________________________|
|In the Underground Water Facility                                    |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Tips|Equip your character with Encounter-None first. You will know   |
|    |why later on.                                                   |
|____|________________________________________________________________|
|To enter the underground basement, you need to adjust the steam block|
|to 10. Examine the steam block on the bottom left corner of the      |
|screen. You can choose to read the tutorial or not. Choose not. Now, |
|initially, you will begin with 20 steam block.                       |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|You will be asked to input Square button two times. Each Square      |
|button took away two steam block, which means after pressing twice,  |
|Steam Block No will become 20-2-2=16. A hidden door to the bottom    |
|will be revealed. Proceed down the stair. Just near the stairs, you  |
|will find a steam block machine. Examine it, and you will be asked to|
|input the password. Let's say, if you choose 2, it will now become   |
|16-2=14. As usual, the door to the underground will open up. The     |
|process will be the same for the rest of the door. Repeat it.        |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Just in case, i keep you suspended about. The password is 2-2-1-1.   |
|In case, you are confused, see the number of the door on the top-    |
|right hand corner of the screen and input the password that match the|
|ones below.                                                          |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Door Number   | 1 | 2 | 5 | 9 |Understand! Your Steam Block number   |
|Input Password| 2 | 2 | 1 | 1 |should be 10 now.                     |
|______________|___|___|___|___|______________________________________|
|When you come down the elevator, you should see a huge steam machine.|
|You are given two options.                                           |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|1st Option|Allows you to activate the steam block machine, pressing  |
|          |Square two times. The Steam Block will become 10-2-2=6.   |
|          |Each Square button took up two steam block, just as the   |
|          |first one.                                                |
|__________|__________________________________________________________|
|2nd Option|This will let Zell to examine the steam block.            |
|__________|__________________________________________________________|
|In order not to make it too direct, i will give you hints as to which|
|option you should choose.                                            |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|-How do you make the Steam Block still remains as 10?                |
|-Have you been trusting your friends?                                |
|-Ask yourself why Zell is a compulsory character?                    |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Well, you should more or less get the hint already. Choosing both    |
|options will open up the door to the underground basement, but only  |
|one options allows you to fight Ultima Weapon and that option is the |
|hint as given above. If you choose the alternative option, you will  |
|not fight Ultima weapon, but you can take this chance to explore the |
|basement, and train your levels, since the monsters inside you are   |
|very strong.                                                         |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Note|Assuming you have choosen the correct option, let me warn you   |
|    |route to the basement is very tedious and long. Make sure you   |
|    |are well-equipped. There are only two save points, one at the   |
|    |entrance and one hidden near where you fought Ultima weapon. The|
|    |hidden draw points require you to equip Siren's Move/Find item  |
|    |before you can use it. Make sure you equip it and save it just  |
|    |before fighting Ultima weapon because should you lose, you have |
|    |to start the whole long, tedious process all over again. The    |
|    |hidden save point is a shiny object at the bottom level to the  |
|    |left of the machine that summons Ultima weapon.                 |
|____|________________________________________________________________|
|Credit|Thanks to  for telling me about the hidden |
|      |save point.                                                   |
|      |______________________________________________________________|
|      |Thanks to X. Calibur for telling me     |
|      |about the hidden save point.                                  |
|______|______________________________________________________________|
|Even with Encounter-None, it can only minimise your chances of enter-|
|ing into a battle. There are five areas which you need to go, before |
|reaching Ultima Weapon at the very bottom. With Encounter-None, you  |
|will encounter three battles for each area, which mean to say you    |
|will have to fight 15 rounds of battle continously. Note that you    |
|will fight the same enemy for three times in an area.                |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Before that, look at some of the requirements:                       |
|1)Squall's LionHeart (Must)                                          |
|2)Junction 100x Ultima to Squall and Zell's strength. (Must)         |
|3)Junction 100x Silence to Status Attack to at least one character.  |
|4)Junction 100x Poison and Blind to Status Defense to all characters.|
|5)Junction Sleep, berserk etc to Status Attack. (Recommended)        |
|6)Junction 100x Haste to all your characters' speed.                 |
|7)Have Aura, Full Life, Meltdown. (Recommended)                      |
|8)Have plenty of Phoenix Pinions. (Recommended)                      |
|  =>Refer to Miscellanous on how to get more Phoenix Pinions.        |
|9)Equip any character abilities like HP+80%, Spd+ 40%, Vit+40%, most |
|  importantly, increase your characters' HP, Speed, Vitality to the  |
|  maximum as much as possible. Consider equipping Auto-Haste and     |
|  revive command also.                                               |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|1st Area|Tri-Face                                                    |
|________|____________________________________________________________|
|It is a three-headed beast, and will sometimes cast poison on you. If|
|have already junction poison to status defense, you do not need to   |
|afraid of him, if not, you can use items/magics to remove poison. If |
|100x Ultima is junctioned to Squall's strength, you should be able to|
|kill it within a few attacks.                                        |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|2nd Area|Grendel and Imp                                             |
|________|____________________________________________________________|
|Grendel |He uses lightning attacks and looks more of a lizard. But,  |
|        |again, he is not that difficult to defeat, if you have met  |
|        |the requirements as above.                                  |
|________|____________________________________________________________|
|Imp     |He can also be found in Esthar area after the lunar base    |
|        |incident. He is not hard to defeat, and will use blind magic|
|        |on you. If you have junctioned blind to status defense, this|
|        |shouldn't be a problem, if not, use items/magics to remove  |
|        |it. For the last fight(Third fight), Imp will cast his final|
|        |attack, Holy on a character who kills him.                  |
|________|____________________________________________________________|
|3rd Area|Behemoth                                                    |
|________|____________________________________________________________|
|He uses magics like Meteor very frequently, causing some massive     |
|damage on you. To stop him from using any magic, meteor, junction    |
|Silence to Status attack. After some time, he may or may not use     |
|barrier on himself, thus reducing any physical or magic damage on    |
|him. Nevertheless, he is helpless when he is silenced. Also, you can |
|get Barrier from him, which is one of the essential item for Quistis |
|to learn Blue Magic, Mighty Guard.                                   |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|4th Area|Ruby Dragon                                                 |
|________|____________________________________________________________|
|You should be very familiarised with Ruby Dragon since you fought him|
|before fighting Bahamut and during one of the Laguna Scenerios. His  |
|deadly attack, possibly Breath, does the most damage, along with     |
|other attacks like flare, meteor. My strategy is use one Aura or keep|
|Squall and Zell at low HP, and finish him as soon as possible before |
|he casts Flare on you using Limit Breaks. If not, keep on drawing and|
|cast Meteor on him. To ensure that Meteor reach the max effectiveness|
|, consider switching 100x Ultima from Strength to magic first, then  |
|switch back after that. To end the fight more quickly, consider using|
|meltdown on him.                                                     |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|5th Area|Iron Giant                                                  |
|________|____________________________________________________________|
|You will encounter two Iron Giants in each battle, making it a total |
|of 6. Basically, Iron Giant does a great deal of physical damage, and|
|it is advisable if you have high Vitality. With Sleep junction to    |
|status attack, you can make Iron Giant fall asleep, while focusing   |
|your concentrations on the other one. To make things simpler, you may|
|consider using some aura spells and finish them off quickly. Also,   |
|Iron Giant will cast Barrier on himself too.                         |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Make sure you take Ultima magic from the draw point just before you  |
|leave the 5th Area. Now, you are on your way to fight. Examine the   |
|machine on the top-right corner. Ultima Weapon will arrive shortly.  |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Note|Remember to draw G.F Eden.                                      |
|____|________________________________________________________________|
|Ultima Weapon is very easy, and can be defeated by executing a few   |
|of Squall's limit break. Basically, his most fearsome attack is quite|
|possibly the Light Pillar, which will kill your party member at      |
|instant, regardless of your defense, but rest assure, it only attacks|
|one party member, not all. Start off by using Aura straight away on  |
|Squall and Zell, and let them use their limit breaks. Use Zell's     |
|Limit Break, Armageddon Fist (duel). Refer to miscellaneous strategy.|
|Have Squall keep on using Renzokuken. You should finish Ultima weapon|
|very easily. If Ultima Weapon uses Light Pillar, quickly use Revive  |
|command or Life/Full Life to revive the dead ally. Don't hesitate!   |
|Ultima Weapon uses Light Pillar very frequently, sometimes giving you|
|little time to revive your dead ally. Good Luck!                     |

II.I)Omega Weapon
=======================================================================
 _____________________________________________________________________
|Omega Weapon can be found in Ultimecia Castle. First, have the main  |
|party gather at the fountain, that is the party that is going to face|
|Omega Weapon later on. For your second party, at the main entrance of|
|the castle at the hallway, head upstairs and enter the door on the   |
|right. As you go down the spiral staircase, you will noticed a party |
|changing spot and a handle at the southwest of the screen. If every- |
|thing is ready, examine the handle, and the bell will ring. You will |
|notice a timer at the top-left corner, giving you less than 50 secs. |
|Quickly, use the party changing spot, and switch to the main party.  |
|Now, head north and enter the room where the organ is supposed to be.|
|As you enter, an enemy who resembles Ultima Weapon appears before you|
|and he is Omega Weapon. (The differences are only the colour and that|
|Omega Weapon doesn't have a sword like Ultima Weapon.) Go near him   |
|to fight Omega. Good Luck!                                           |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Additional Info:                                                     |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|-Every time, you enter the room, did you notice a purple colour form |
| of cloud. That's actually Omega. (Sort of) He will appear only if   |
| the bell is rang. (Don't know how should i describe that 'Cloud'!)  |
|-Notice the timer in the top-left hand corner? You will need to REACH|
| Omega weapon before the time runs out, after which he will disappear|
| into the 'purple' cloud again.                                      |
|-Note that the timer will still go on, if you happen to encounter a  |
| battle.                                                             |
|-Once you have defeated Omega, you will get the 'Proof Of Omega'.    |
| Just go to the menu, select tutorial, then information and you      |

|Squall  |With best gunblade, LionHeart equipped, Squall's limit break|
|        |is extremely lethal especially if he uses LionHeart as      |

|How to Defeat Omega Weapon                                           |
|_____________________________________________________________________|
|Omega will initiate the fight by casting L5 level Death on all your  |
|members. If you have junctioned 100x Death to status defense, or your|
|characters' levels are not multiple of 5, you do not need to worry.  |
|Start out the fight by using Aura on all your characters. Have Squall|
|keep on using limit break, Renzokuken and Zell on using Armageddon   |
|Fist, his duel limit break. Refer to miscellaneous strategy section  |
|for more detail. When Quistis has cast Aura, use her blue magic,     |
|mighty guard. This will cast protect and shell on all your party. Let|
|Quistis concentrate on healing by using Blue Magic, White Wind, and  |
|occasionally use Shockwave Pulsar to attack. Keep your characters' HP|
|at 9999 as much as possible, and use Full Life to revive any dead    |
|ally. Make sure that all your characters are in protect and shell    |
|condition all the times, if not cast Mighty guard again. Terra Break |
|will do very lethal damage, doing multiple physical hits and if you  |
|have cast Mighty Guard, or equip abilities like defend, auto-shell,  |
|auto-protect, it will reduce the impact of the attack, giving you a  |
|higher chance of survival. Should your party gets wiped out, fear not|
|since if you have Phoenix Pinion, you should be able to summon G.F   |
|Phoenix, and revive all your party members. However, since Omega     |
|weapon can absorb any fire magics, G.F Phoenix will heal Omega, re-  |
|gaining a small amount of his HP. Repeat the same strategy using     |
|Squall and Zells' Limit Break, and if you find it hard, you may      |
|consider using Hero or Holy War Drink. Good Luck!                    |

=======================================================================
III)Miscellaneous Strategy
=======================================================================
In this section, it will include detailed informations of using Zell's
Armageddon fist, how to get Phoenix Pinions, Hero Drink/ Holy Wars etc.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
III.I)Crisis Level
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Limit breaks are special moves that characters can perform under
special situation, for example when they are low on HP. Some causes
massive damage while some can boast the party's power. For the
japanese version, limit break is known as special or special arts
in Final Fantasy VIII.

Basic Requirement:
1)Present HP is at or below 32% of max HP.
=>Applies to ALL CHARACTER, except SEIFER.
=>Seifer's HP must be at or below 84% of max HP.
2)Aura Condition.
3)Special Condition (Refer to b and c)

When either one or both conditions are satisfied, a > mark will appear
randomly on the right side of the "Attack" command. Hold right while
pointing the cursor at the "Attack" command. Then choose the limit
break(s) you want to use.

Note:When in curse condition, the > mark will never appear, meaning
     you won't get a chance to use any limit break(s).

Aura
====
Aura is a magical spell when cast on a character allows him to use
limit breaks even though his HP is not very low. When in Aura
condition, you will notice your characters turn golden yellow
colour. Aura allows your character to use limit breaks temporarily
and how long Aura condition last, depends on your Crisis level. The
higher your Crisis level is , the longer the time your character will
be in Aura condition.

How to get Aura spells?
=======================
You can get it by drawing Aura spells when fighting with Seifer in
disc 3 at Lunatic Pandora. You can also draw Aura spells from draw
points found in Island Of Hell or Island Of Heaven. Simply equip
Siren's Move/Find and Encounter None and walk in the island(s).
Island of Hell is found in the western part of Galbadia, which is
that long stretch of coast in the most northwest part of the
world map. You can find Island of Heaven in the northeast part of
the world map, just north of the Grandidi forest where chocobo
Holy is.

Crisis Level
============
Each character has an internal perimeter known as the crisis level,
which works like a gauge bar in FFVII. It affects the chances of
using a limit break. As crisis level increases, chances of using
limit break increases. Below shows the various ways of increasing
your crisis level:

a)HP is decreased.
b)Negative Status Condition.
c)Party member(S) is dead.
 ________________________________
|Negative Status Bonus|Crisis(Up)|
|_____________________|__________|
|Slow                 |  +  6%   |
|_____________________|__________|
|Petrify              |  + 12%   |    The table on the left
|_____________________|__________|    shows how much your
|Blind                |  + 12%   |    Crisis level will
|_____________________|__________|    increase if your
|Poison               |  + 12%   |    characters are in any
|_____________________|__________|    of the negative status.
|Silence              |  + 12%   |
|_____________________|__________|
|Death Sentence       |  + 18%   |    Refer to below for
|_____________________|__________|    more explanation on
|1 Party Member down  |  +  8%   |    how this negative status
|_____________________|__________|    bonus works.
|2 Party Member down  |  + 16%   |
|_____________________|__________|

So, in the example of character with Poison and Death Sentence, one
party member down, and HP at 32%, the value is (32 (basic value) + 12
+ 18 + 8 )= 70% chance of > appearing.

Acquiring New Limit Breaks
==========================
Different characters have different ways of acquiring limit breaks.
It can be through reading magazines; upgrading to a more powerful
weapon, or even finding certain items. If you want to know more
about the details of how each character acquires his or her limit
breaks, please refer to my limit break faq. Details of every
limit breaks for each character will be covered individually
at various sections in my limit break faq.

Easy Limit Break
=================

1)Tap the switching member button until the > mark appear during
  battle. [The default button should be circle for the US version
  if i am not wrong, but i prefer it to be Triangle.]

When the > mark appears, you should hear a clink sound. If your reflex
is fast, you should immediately stop tapping the switching member
button once you hear the clink sound.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
III.II)Armageddon Fist
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Zell's limit break is by far the most unqiueness. I believe the
concept of Zell's limit break come from Final Fantasy VI(Final Fantasy
III in the US). Remember Sabin's Blitz command. Zell's limit break is
quite similar to Sabin's Blitz but this time, there is a time limit
and you can chain combos. In another way, his moves are quite similar
to Final Fantasy VII Tifa's limit breaks. Even some of the names of
the limit breaks are the same like Final Heaven.

Just like Squall's limit break, you can let the CPU control Zell's
limit break or execute it manually. if your reflex is slow, i suggest
you let the CPU control. The disadvantage of letting CPU controlling
is that you may not get the combination of combos that you want or
the CPU may not perform the moves as fast as you do.

ARMAGEDDON FIST -Contributed By Kaze Yagami
===============
It is actually a chain of near-infinite combo and can be pull off very
easily. How to do is very simple: Simply keep on repeating Punch Rush
and Booya. Reason, because when a chain starts, it will begin with
either one of the both, and then it will loop back to the first one.
Punch Rush and Booya are easy to execute and since they remain in a
loop, you can perform the move in 0.1 seconds or even less. If you
are fast, you can execute about 3 to 9 combos in a second. Each combo
can take about 1000 to 4000 damage. Think about it, how long do you
need to input the buttons for complex moves like My Final Heaven.

Let's do a simple calculation:
=>At max str of 255, and max time, 12,00,
=>you can do about 36 to 108 combos.
=>Each combo does about 1000 to 4000 damage
At max, it could mean:
4000 x 108 = 432,000 damage.

Note:Armageddon Fist is a name came out by Kaze Yagami. The name the
     Japanese came up, was Choukyu Bushin Hakken. (Lit, Super Ultimate
     War God Breaking Punch).

 to 100x Hero Drink.

 into 10x Holy War Drink using Quezatcotl's Card Mod ability.

this tedious, long process.

Note:I have changed the names to the US version. So, there shouldn't
     be a problem for reading it.

Info
====
Actually, Holy War Drink works exactly like Rinoa's Invisible moon.
Hero Drink has the effect of invincibility on a character, and Holy
War has the effect of invincibility on all characters. When in
invincibility state, characters are immune to all kinds of attack,
even Omega's attacks like Light Pillar, Terra Break, Megido Flame etc.
"Trial" version works exactly the same, but works only 50% of the time.
Also, using the above method, DoomTrain must be at Lv 100.

IV)Song Lyrics
=======================================================================
Below are the lyrics for Eyes On Me and Liberi Fatali.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Eyes On Me
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Composer:Nobuo Uematsu
Vocalist:Faye Wong

Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar 
         
My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Oh, did you ever know?
That I had mine on you 
         
*Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer 
         
So let me come to you
Close as I wanna be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you 
         
Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming  

*Repeat

Credit:Thanks to Heero Yuy for allowing me to publish the lyrics
       in my faq.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Liberi Fatali
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Excitate vos e somno, liberi mei.
Cunae non sunt.
Excitate vos e somno, liberi fatali. 
Somnus non eat.

Surgite.
Invenite hortum veritatis. 

Ardente veritate
Urite mala mundi.
Ardente veritate
Incendite tenebras mundi.

Valete, liberi, 
Diebus fatalibus. 

Children of Fate
----------------
Wake up, my children, 
The cradles are gone. 
Wake up, Children of Fate,
The peaceful sleep is over. 

Rise up
Search for the Garden of Truth

With fiery truth
Burn off all the deceit of the world
With fiery truth
Light up the dark world. 

Goodbye, children,
The next moment of meeting is the moment of fate.

       lyrics, as well as doing the translation for Liberi Fatali.

How? Do you like it? Are you interested about the specifications of
these vehicles? Hopefully, you don't think it as a waste of time.
I spent the time to type everything out. Hey, come on! Some
appreciation, please? Thanks! The specifications look really cool, in 
my personal opinion but it is true in the game or in real life, i
honestly don't know. What do you think?
