Side questing

Why am I 100 percenting a game I hate?

All I did was several side quests to get stronger. First up was the secret underground of the Deep Sea Research Facility. Bahamut's Zordon container broke, revealing access to the depths. We'll need to power each floor with steam. All you need to worry about are the first two floors. Use two for both, and don't forget to access the steam room on the second floor. You only have one option the rest of the way, but don't let Zell use the machine at the bottom. Apparently, this activates random encounters, but I had Enc-none on. Would it have mattered? At the very bottom is Ultima Weapon!

All I did was Draw Ultima from him. After I Drew Eden, the final GF, of course. Make sure to have Quake junctioned to elemental defense and a way to revive (items or magic). Light Piller does 9999 damage no matter what, so you'll need the revivals. His Meteor spell is pathetic, and his gravity attack barely aided him. Ultima is the best magic to junction anywhere, and I'm attaching it to strength. Sadly, I accidentally killed him before getting all 300, so I spent more time between the Islands and the Shuni Village.

While maxing that out, I decided to max out (as best I could) the rest of my stats. I went in search of Reflect, Pain, and Triple. Aura is a drag to get, so I'm gonna ignore it. I also went around and did the Odel Lake quest for a Luck Junction Scroll (Rinoa). I started and finished the UFO stuff for an Evasion Scroll (Squall) and Pupu's Card to turn into Abilityx4 (Zell). I accidentally got Irvine's best weapon, leaving only Q without hers. I will not he farming forty elvorets. Sorry. I didn't mean to do those last there, but I wanted big numbers.

I'll see what Esthar's president wants and, time permitting, do Suumi's Village quest...

...tomorrow!

Shumi is boring, and I got a Phoenix Pinion somewhere else. This might take us to the end of disk three and the point of no return. This is the first time I've ever gotten all the GFs. I've never even gotten Eden before Ultemecia's Castle.
