Tip for Final Fantasy VIII Provided by: Shargonysadros Oct 8, 2003 Wash Jumbo Cactaur Away! This tip is currently ranked 3.4 out of 5 by a bunch of voters. Shargonysadros has earned 3 gems! You all can thank Zellkat for suggesting that I post this here, as opposed to having to find it amidst the chats. Jumbo Cactaur is actually a fairly straight-forward fight. One character needs Revive, another needs Cerberus, and Squall (he had the highest compatibility in my group, so I'll reference him) with Leviathan. He should be devoted to summoning Leviathan. Start by summoning Leviathan and Cerberus, then have one of your two other characters cast Triple Haste, and the other, Triple Regen, to give you a speed advantage, and not worry about healing. Then, start blasting Jumbo with Triple Water. I'm not sure if it does anything, but you can draw-cast, or inventory-cast Meltdown on him to. Keep this up until the game mentions something about Jumbo hesitating. From here, it's dangerous to attack too much. The best thing to do is only summon Leviathan, and boost it as high as you can. Jumbo should fall with a few summons. To prep for this, make sure you have 100 Water on your non-Squall characters. You can refine 20 from Fish Fins, from Fastitocalons and Fastitocalon-F's, and 50 from Water Crystals, from Fastitocalons and Chimeras. Also, have Revive and Cerberus on different characters, and make sure to have G-Returners, in case Leviathan is KO-ed while Squall summons him. There you have it!

(emote): Shargonysadros, Gold Dragon of the Black Edge, breathes deeply, and muttering a spell in High Draconic, transforms back into his normal, three-dimensional self. Grinning, he puffs a large smoke ring, and artistically adds smoke to make it a smiley face.	Shargonysadros Oct 8, 2003
