Worst Malboros - Page 2

X malboros make me run away screaming like a little girl, and the great malboros are even worse. I once tried to fight a malboro for the hell of it...it confused and poisoned my entire party...soooo I just said fekk it and reset the game <.< Thank god for first strike.

I hated FF VIII's malboros. I can always stop everything except silence, poison, and darkness. So I just sit there and slowly die. And the malboros in XII are so easy its almost a waste of time. I wonder why they are different in the other series. And with what poison said...It does remind me of cigs. Maybe it's their way of showing what bad effects cigs can do to you.

X's Malboros are worst. I didn't even try to fight the one in the Monster Arena... *shivers*

In any of the games anymore if I come up against a Malboro I just try to run away instead of taking the chance of getting a game over

Oddly, whenever I fight a malboro I rarely die. Suddenly one of my characters are ok so I make them escape. There's this other, easier way to destroy a malboro. That is by summoning

Ugh it's defo the ones from VIII for me....ny heart sank whenever I encountered one, but unless I was going to refine a shed load of cards for marlboro tentacles I knew I had to face them.....I

relied heavily on Zanmato....altho later on when my speed improved & also equipping auto haste I could sometimes sneak degenerator in before he could bad breath me.....alas, not very often tho

Then the thought hits me, why didn't I just use initiative..... >.<

For me it's the ones in VIII, the only ones I've died at the hands of. I think it was partially because the seemed to have an astonishingly high sneak-attack ratio by the time they'd levelled up. They're the reason I stuck mainly to Island Closest To Hell for levelling up in that game.

FF8 definitely had the nastiest incarnation of these guys. However in a recent playthrough, i found an easy way to beat them. I cant remember the exact details, but basically it involved game breaking and Zell being uber fast and strong. Ill ask my mate and if he can remember ill let you know.

Also just want to say that the ones in FF12 were a joke! midget little things with low HP and werent really that nasty. The again, FF12 did breat free from all FF tradition.

I wondered what happened between the ones from VIII to XII. In VIII they towered over you and were about the size of a house but in XII they were half as tall as you and just looked like little beach balls with tentacles.

Then you, Miss Shiva, are probably the luckiest FF player ever.

They would have been a little tougher if their Bad Breath had a better hit rate, but it missed almost all the time. Even when it did hit me, most of the statuses would miss, so I'd always end up with poison or sleep. Big whoop.
