Final Fantasy VIII The first game in the series to consistently use realistically proportioned characters, FF8 also threw more of a futuristic mix into the old (Hi-)potion that is Final Fantasy.

Well, i found out that if you just go to "The Island Closest To Hell" or "The Island Closest to Heaven" then they monsters you need will appear very easily. =). They are much harder though. Be prepared. rofl.

Yeah, it was. :/ The drop rate was medium but encountering the enemies took some time and luck.

Energy Crystals were annoying to get. Ruby Dragons, Elnoyle and Behemoth drop them. None of them were located on the Island closet to Heaven or Hell. Need about 8 of them if you want all ultimate weapons.

Quite a few monsters dropped Star Fragments but they also took a bit of time to farm. Not as bad as Energy Crystals though.

i'm pretty sure the ruby dragon appeared on the island closest to hell, if not very often, but you could hunt them in the deep research center (also handy for curse spikes from tri-faces), and i only EVER encoutered elnoyles when the lunatic pandora had dropped monsters on esthar. I never ever got one from behemoth tho. Pain in the backside those energy crystals....

All the others just took a little patience, i always seemed to struggle abit with dragon skins and dragon fangs (i think it was dragon fangs - the ones you needed for squalls wep that you got from blue dragons) Other than that, was fine

I rarely encounter Ruby Dragons on the Island closest to hell.

The best way to find them is Sollet mountains. It's near Esthar and you need the airship to land there. The encounter rate is high.

The weapons monthly Aug/First issues tell you all you need to know but anyways;

Squall > Lionheart - 1 Adamantine, 4 Dragon Fangs, 12 Pulse Ammos

Zell > Ehrgeiz 1 - Adamantine, 4 Dragon Skins, 1 Fury Fragment

Rinoa > Shooting Star - 2 Windmills, 1 Regen Ring, 1 Force Armlet, 2 Energy Crystals

Quistis > Save The Queen - 2 Marlboro Tentacles, 4 Sharp Spikes, 4 energy Crystals

Irvine > Exeter - 2 Dino Bones, 1 Moon Stone, 2 Star Fragments, 18 screws

Selphie > Strange Vision - 1 Adamantine, 3 Star Frangments 2 Curse Spikes

I get the dragon skins by fighting anacondours, energy crystals by refining elnoyle cards/killing ruby dragons, adamantines i refine my sacred card (or is it minotaur?) Pulse ammos I refine from either 1 power generator, 2 energy crystals or 1 energy crystal & 1 laser cannon. The rest you come across quite easily either in monster drops or card refining. Oh the dragon fangs I got off a blue dragon drop & marlboro tentacles I either riefine the cards or hope that Odin will appear in a fight & do it for me

Hope that helps
