( Adel )
Form a new party and head south to where you fought the
robot. Youll notice on the right that the structure has dropped a bridge. Cross
over and climb the ladder all the way to the top to find Rinoa and Seifer. Meet
Adel. Hes a bit rusty after all those years of confinement. This battle is
tricky cause you might end up damaging Rinoa. Stay away from your GF that
inflict damage and Spells to more than one enemy. Draw Regen from Rinoa and cast
it on your party including Rinoa. Cast Cerberus and use normal attacks and magic
spells on Adel and make sure you have Shell status cause Adel can cast Ultima.
Continue healing Riona and your party, recast Regen when it wores out.
( Witches )
Its time for compression. When you get to the Save
Point, only the first one is real and the rest are fakes. Save your game. Now
you must fight a long and continous battle against a number of witches. The
normal witches only have a few thousand HP and are easy to dispose, the final
ugly witch is a bit tougher. Use this chance to stock up on some Holy Spells.
Make sure you have Protect status cause her counter attack inflicts massive
damage. Also make sure you have Shell status cause she can also cast Ultima. Use
haste, triple and dont give her a chance. Also Aura driven limits will do
wonders with her.
( Ultimecia's Castle )
The entrance to the Castle is on the beach. Climb the
chain to the entrance. Once you step inside her castle your abilities will be
sealed off, you must form 2 parties. Leaving the castle will temporarily break
the seal, use this tactic to heal your party and save the game. You must earn
your abilities back by finding the monsters that sealed them and destroying
them. Make sure you junction the most powerful spells to your strength and also
it would help if you junction either Death or Drain spells to your "Sts-Atk-J".
After earning each of your abilities make sure you head outside and save. While
inside the castle you can switch to your party thats closest to the exit door
and if you have them exit out, everyone else will automatically exit out, use
this tactic as well to heal your party and save your game.

Sphinxara at the top of the stairs. This boss is easy, just keep attacking it
and it should fall down soon enough. Unlock one of your abilities.

door at the top, this places you above a huge chandelier. Get on it and it will
plummet to the room below. Theres a hatch door on the floor that leads to the
basement, youll find Tri-Point there. This boss counter attacks with a
Thunder-based Mega Spark that causes major damage. If you junction Thunder to
your "Elem-Def" youll be able to absorb his attack and heal
yourself..... like taking candy from a baby. Unlock another ability.

You need two parties for this one. From the entrance
have your "dummy" party go up the stairs through the door at the top.
Get on the chandelier, and after it falls head to the right at the glowing green
circle that you use to switch between party members. Stand on it and it will
automatically activate a lever that stops the chandelier from falling. Now
switch to your "real" party and have them go up the stairs through the
door at the top and across the chandelier and through the north door. Meet
Krysta. Doesnt have alot of HP but has a very high defensive power. Cast
Meltdown or Doomtrain, and use your most powerful GF except for Shiva. Use
protect to lessen its counter attacks, and watch out for an Ultima spell. Unlock
another ability after defeating it. Make sure you save your game.

stairs to your right. Examine all the paintings. Theres a total of 12 small
paintings and 1 huge paiting. Go up the stairs to your right and examine all the
paitings up there. When your done upstairs go back down and examine a few
paitings just to the right of the north door and some on the southeast side of
this screen. The huge paiting is on the left side of this screen. It is
important that you have examine all the paitings. Now go to the huge painting
and name it. VIVIDARIUM ET INTERVIGILIUM ET VIATOR, or In the Garden Sleeps a
Messanger. Once you finish naming the painting youll notice that theres a
monster behind you. Meet Trauma, and thats what he will give you. Its main
attack is Mega Pulse Cannon and boy can it burn your asses down. He has very
high defensive power so use Meltdown or summon Doomtrain. He can call on little
Dromas to help him but dont worry about them, they are not powerful, just
concentrate on Trauma. Use powerful GF and Triple spells and make sure you have
a character on standby for healing purposes. Aura driven limits works great.
Once you gave Trauma a taste of his own medicine, unlock one of your abilities.
( Red Giant )
Head to the art gallery. Once in the art gallery, take
the north door. Once your outside take the stairs down to the basement armory.
Enter the door on the left. Youre locked in!!!! Take the prison key from the
corpse's hand and the Red Giant will appear. This boss has extremely high
defensive power. Use Doomtrain to blind him and weaken its defenses, or use
Meltdown to weaken its defenses. Use GF and Protect. Gravity-based attacks will
do wonders against this boss. Give him a good beating to unlock one of your
abilities.

and find the key washed up in the stream). If you succeded in getting the key,
you still need to go back to the basement armory and unlock the door on the
right. Enter the door and youll find a Vysage waiting in the back. GF Siren
works great against them, it will silence them and prevent them from using any
magics. When you defeat the Vysage, it will crawl out from the ground. Now meet
Gagantua. Watch out for his counter attack or he will make a gargantua out of
you. To easily beat him, Junction Earth to your "Elem-Def" and Berserk

Youll need two parties on this one. From the entrance,
take your "dummy" party up the stairs. Once on top of the stairs head
left. Continue left and enter the door on the left. Enter the north door and
continue on north pass the tilted room until you see the "party
exchange" green circle on the elevator. Stand on it and change to the other
party. Take your "real" party to the basement armory entrance except
dont go down the basement, instead take the stairs on the left and continue left
past the Save Point until you see your "dummy" party. Get your
"real" party on the other elevator. (If both elevators dont move, it
means you did not examine all the paintings in the art gallery). Now take your
"dummy" party and head left to the room and find the Flood Gate Key.
Now take your "real" party and the Flood Gate Key down the basement
armory. Youll notice a lever right next to the door on the left. Use your Flood

light. Half way across the hallway is a door on the left, use your Treasure
Vault Key to open it and enter. Youll see 4 coffins, open all of them, its a bit
tricky, just mess around with it and eventually all 4 will open. Catoblepas will
come out and play. This boss has alot of HP and uses Thunder attacks. Start by
summoning Doomtrain to give you an advantage. Avoid using lightning-based
attacks. Draw Meteor and cast it on him. Before he dies he will cast a final
spell Ultima so watch out and make sure your party's HP is high. Unlock another
ability.
( Tiamat )
Return to the room with the organ and go up the stairs to the right. Cross the shaky bridge and enter the door on the left. Climb the tower until you see the giant pendulum. Youll notice it swings left and right, position your party on the left side and when it swings towards you jump on it and swing across to the other side. Go right, through the gap and meet Tiamat. Tiamat is a wanna be Bahamut but not strong enough. He only uses one attack called Dark Flare, and a very powerful one. Make sure you use Protect or youll be toast. Summon Doomtrain to slow him down and weaken its defenses. Stay away from GF Ifrit, Quezacotl, and Pandemona. As long as you keep your HP up and have Protect status you should be fine. Unlock your last ability. Go back to the pendulum and swing across the other side. Continue climbing the tower. Walk across the clock's hand and down the ladder. Head right and down another ladder.
