bahamut/ ultima weapon

[Elitist1]

[ff 8 windows pc version]

something is wrong with my game and bahamut and ultima weapons's difficulty level is set at extremely easy.

bahamut's scanned hp is 90,000 (isn't it supposed to be more ?), but he dies after i hit him for about 15,000 hp and utima weapon's supposed to have a million hp or more but he dies after i hit him for about 100,000 hp.

besides that, despite being scanned at level 100 they act like they're level 1; bahamut doesn't do mega flare over and over again and ultima weapon doesn't try to instakill my characters over and over again like they're supposed to.

its destroying all the fun of the game; how do i fix this ?

utima weapon's supposed to have a million hp or more but he dies after i hit him for about 100,000 hp.

[...]

and over again and ultima weapon doesn't try to instakill my characters over and over again like they're supposed to.

No, Omega Weapon's supposed to have more than a million HP. Ultima does have about 100,000.

Does Ultima do the Light Pillar? That will take 9999 off of one character only. Only Omega is likely to slaughter all your characters instantly using his Terra Break.

[Elitist1]

i remember ultima weapon having more (doesn't ?? at the scan screen instead of an actual number mean a milion or more hp ?), but the real issue is their defense; i tap them on their pinky toes and they lose 9999 hp.

that isn't right.

also,  mega flare, quake, and meteor used to almost kill me every time.

now it hits for about 12 hp. yes i said 12; what's with that?

how do i fix this problem?

[Synergy Blades]

What're your character stats like? It's entirely possible if your Attack and Defense stats are high enough.

just finish them all with: aura on selphie keep rerolling her limit break till "the end" comes up. its the ingame version of the final movie and u won the battle instantly :p

[Elitist1]

i used an editor " after " they were even easier to raise my level to 100 so that they would be level 100.

i can try to lower my stats but leave my level at 100 but even if that works it doesn't solve the hp thing.

i'm believe means 1 million hp or more because only ultimecia, ulitima weapon and omega weapon scan like that and tiamat scans at about 800,000 hp at level 100.

if there anyone else who might be knowledgeable about hp?

[Elitist1]

ye-roon wouldn't using something as cheesy as the end be counter-productive to the entire topic of this post?

I can confirm that Ultima Weapon only has around 100,000 HP because I remembered killing it with LionHeart (Pure luck!) in the first round.

When I fought Ultima weapon for the second time , I started drawing 300 ultimas from it.

As for bahamut's mega flare... I cannot remember but I don't really think bahamut uses it all the time.. and yes when bahamut doesn't have a lot of HP.... I remembered when I played FF8 for the first time bahamut only had 50000-ish HP (My chars were at lv.70 something).... I used Kamikaze to kill Bahamut I think  

[ye-roon]

yep thats why i put the :p at the end

[Elitist1]

so only omega weapon and ultimecia have 1 million hp + ?

how much hp does the lionheart take?

shouldn't they have good enough defense at level 100 so that even if you were to use powerful moves they would only hit for half of what they're supposed to?

thats the way i remember it on playstation; i stayed up late at night and early in the morning trying to beat them and i didn't beat them until days later.

now i say boo and they offer to spit-shine my shoes.

long live the playstation.

can anyone help, please?

[Elitist1]

if you use the character editor from cheatplanet.com and:

1. set your level at 100

2. set all your stats at 255 except ;

3. strength must be at 0 ;

4. and both hps at 9999

5. junction 100 ultimas to all characters evade.

6. squall must " NOT " have the lionheart.

you will have a very entertaining game against ultima weapon.

[Synergy Blades]

Personally I prefer getting my characters up to a good level and ability, without cheating, and beating the Weapons any way possible, including Summons... more entertaining and satisfying that way, knowing you've done it yourself.

[Lieron]

the ? in the hp only means you cant tell the hp, not that its too high to count, and lionheart does liek 9999 times like 30 or so.... i lose count of it

[atzn]

No I don't think Lionheart does 30 hits.. no more than 20 ... Possibly 17 to 18 hits, can't remember.

[Lieron]

i cant keep up with it.. it jsut looks like a bunch of nines flying out lol

[Elitist1]

" Personally I prefer getting my characters up to a good level and ability, without cheating, and beating the Weapons any way possible, including Summons... more entertaining and satisfying that way, knowing you've done it yourself. "

i mentioned previously that the first time i was only level 40 without cheating and they were too easy so i had to improvise, but i beat them on playstation legitimately and it was hard because the difficulty level was set correctly.

[Lieron]

jsut use the aura(on squall), hast squall, then meltdown on the mob(s), and just cycle through squalls actions till you get his limit.... best if you have his lionheart

[Elitist1]

lieron, wouldn't using something as cheesy as the lionheart be counter-productive to the entire topic of this post ?

i mentioned previously that the first time i was only level 40 without cheating and they were too easy so i had to improvise, but i beat them on playstation legitimately and it was hard because the difficulty level was set correctly.

So it's only your problem I guess, since it seems it's okay for the rest of us, and the Lionheart and Summons come in very handing in defeating the likes of the Weapons.

[Elitist1]

it's not a problem, it's a point of view/ perspective conveyed in my own topic.

what is it that you dislike so much about me or am i imagining it ?

[Synergy Blades]

I think you're imagining it, I'm civil to everyone online that's civil to me.  

[Lieron]

i p[aly rpg's for storyline, not to perfect my character in every way

[Elitist1]

i completely agree, but i don't like super easy games.

[atamand]

I remember those two being harder for me, especially Bahamut.  Mainly Bahamut.  Maybe a glitch.  Maybe you're just really good (high strength, defense, etc.).

[Elitist1]

its the game, they were difficult on playstation when i had similar stats.
