best monsters have nothing to do with leveling up. you need to earn that character experience and job points.. which comes from taking their turn. Yer best bet, if you don't have mustadio and snipe yet, is get a time mage with don't act/don't move.. or hit a bad guy to the point where they just go cower in the corner somewhere, and have everyone wait and have the dude you want to level up, do something meaningless, like accumulate. do it 50 times with JP up and guess how much expereince and job points you'll have..
best monster has to be the 1st shrine knight.. can't think of his name.. but I dig the giant stomach mouth. what a way to instill fear into your enemies.. -------------------- distance is meaningless in an infinate universe |

Wow...an FF8 fan. Anyways, I know what monster what monster you're talking about. He was slightly tough with the Death Sentence and Sleep, but I beat him. Once again, there are no "best" monsters. Their level depends on your level. So, you're just going to have to fight them a lot.

I think you're talkin' about queaklain (something along those lines) and he was Count Dracalu, not a shrine knight. He was the Tainted/Impure King. The wierd stomach mouth was awesome. Freaked me out the first time I played this game and knew I was gonna die.
 And, in my opinion on which is the best monster to recruit is a dragon. *not sure if you can get those in Ch2 or not. Still the best of them all though*  This post has been edited by TAS on 24th January 2004 03:34 -------------------- CHANGE : When the winds of change blow hard enough, the most trivial of things can turn into deadly projectiles |

Best Monster to recruit = Black Chocobo. They got looks, movement, and skills. Choco Ball is a nice ability, and Chocobos in general have great movement. I like the Black one because it can fly!

My favorite monster is the Red Chocobo...though I wish they had left it like the black ones so that it could fly...but Choco Meteor is an awesome monster skill!

although i never have monsters in my party (except ones im breeding of course) i think that the hardest monster to fight against is easily yellow Chocobos, although their abilities aren't very good later in the game, they are a real pain to fight against in ch1, because they always run away and heal each other

Yeah but you can also use yellow chocobos to your advantage
 But i would have to say that the best monster is the black chocobo. The ability to fly and use choco ball as well as swim make it easy to attack you opponent. Plus it cure status affects with choco esuna and with monster skill it can use Choco Meteor! |

Irregardless of the chapter you're in, the monsters you fight in random battles will be easy or difficult depending on your level. For instance, even in Chapter 2, if your level is above 50, there is a random battle at Baurius Hill where you are faced by every type of dragon and behemoth (with the exception of the Tiamat).
Black Chocobos received some cheers but, they are not even the strongest type of chocobo and chobobos aren't the stongest type of monster. Red chocobos are much faster, stronger and have far greater hp than the blacks. Nevertheless, I thnk that a duel between a Red Chocobo and a Tiamat would end in victory for the latter. |

my favorite monster is Red Chocobo.
and since the guy asked about Mime, I'm going to point out that to attain Mime job class, a character must be Level 8 Squire and Chemist, Level 4 Lancer, Samurai, Summoner, and Mediator. I always thought Mime was kinda retarded anyway though. -------------------- look into my eyes tell me what you see someone real? this is real! what you wish to be! ...O P E N Y O U R E Y E S........ ...open your eyes, open your eyes.... |

Tiamats are acceptable for me.
Also all the chocobos must recieve a compliment they're the traditional monsters in the FF Trilogy you can't go against that.  I know how to get these jobs, and I did what the info said on the net but it didn't work I want some Ninjas! & maybe samarais too...

I like the Tiamat its awsome. But the only way ive figured out how to get it is by being lvl fifty at the hill.

If we're talking about the best monsters to recruit in your party, I'd go with the aforementioned Tiamats and Dragons, etc., plus the Red Chocobo. The Red Chocobo has some great movement range and Choco Meteor, which is probably the best attack out of the Chocobo line. Plus, you can get a Red Chocobo fairly early in the game, assuming you leveled up your Mediator appropriately.
When it comes to truly irritating monsters that don't really do anything when they fight for you but mess you up when they're against you, I'll go with all of the Mind Flayer derivatives. Until you're well-prepared for their Confuse, they can really screw you up; I've been taught too many times that my Level 60 Ninja is as good at killing me as he is at killing the enemy. -------------------- "I always have a quotation for everything - it saves original thinking." ~Dorothy L.

Mind Flayers are good but their movement and speed suck. The Red Chocobos however are very good with Choco Meteor. A lvl 15 Red Chocobo can do up to 100 damage to a lvl 30 monster.

sacreds are pretty good, and you can poach some sweet items off them if i remeber correctly (ie stone gun), but im pretty sure you either hafta get really lucky in a random battle or get them the easy way... breed them

Sacreds are hard to find... I've only bumped into only one in Zeklaus desert... but when i got the Sacred's treasure chest I only got an X-potion... what a suprise I don't get good stuff I'm cursed. I like Arahiac Demons and Ultima demons they're powerful with their short charge of dark holy and Ultima woah!  -------------------- Auron might be good, but I'm better...=p* My first visits....: *Returning from home-Returner *Trying to find a Cactuar Costume for Halloween-Cactuar *Treasure hunting for more shiny things, & candy-Treasure Hunter Current Location: *Crusading hell, I want to assasinate Satan but don't tell him what my plan is okay....?-Crusader |

Gusts are pretty good too. They can move anywhere on the board.

They do have teleport, yes. But it is not the Teleport2 that Elmdoor and Altima have. Therefore they don't act any differently than a human unit with teleport, i.e. try to move all the way across the board with them and you will probably fail.

Nope, nor archaic demons or apandas and I think a couple others.

Archaic Demons, Ultima Demons, and Apandas, sadly, cannot be captured. The game would be a hell of a lot more exciting if you could invite special monsters, but it doesn't work.
Think of doing Lifebreaks and Nanoflares on your unsuspecting archers! It's almost too good to be true. I guess we'll have to settle for Behemoth monster skill additions for such things =/ -------------------- It's gonna be a glorious day I feel my luck can change |
