Re: FFXII
I'm in giruvegan now. It looks like I'm pretty close to the end of the game, as I just beat some boss that had to have probably 250,000+ hp. I was in some crazy crystal - sky - floating place but got lost and ended up back at the start XD
Level 50, 33 hours.
And I think it was windburst that did 25,000 damage, so I'd like to see what my characters would do with black hole ^^
mild spoilers and strategy:
The boss in the fagwood is rather difficult, because if he hits you with this attack that casts disease/sap/confuse/every status effect there is in the game on everyone, you basically die. He also drains ALL of your magic power, so curing your guys with magic is useless and reviving them leaves you with 1 hp because of disease. But he has like no hitpoints, probably 75,000, so just haste all and slug him to death - and restart until he doesn't use it at the beginning. And then he'll start running and calling for backup, which is basically a dozen malabros, but just keep slugging him and he should die before they kill you.
I also recommend hammers for slugging. They deal huge amounts of damage at this point int eh game, unless you have some sort of better weapon I'm not aware of. I'm getting about 2000 average damage, maximum of 4000 at level 50.
Cid is a piece of cake if you have curaja or whatever the final cure is. Just have two people whore the rooks and have one person cast that every turn. Also, have the liscence for damage --> mp conversion so you don't run out of mp and he's cake. Don't hit him until the rooks are gone.
The bosses in giruvagen can also be beaten with the same technique. One boss does some ~2000 damage to everyone, but just stick with the tactic and he'll fall before you're out of MP. It's almost BS, the final cure is severely overpowered while hasted because the bosses can't attack fast enough to kill you (assuming they don't rely on status inducing effects, but I havn't had that problem yet other than the boss mentioned above).
