I was wonder what some of your guys highest boost was with some of the harder g/fs to get high numbers with? You know with like shiva. I got up to 130 with her but thats the highest. I was just wondering. I know with Eden its like so easy to get a high boost with. You can max it out so easy with how long the cinema is.

I got about 90 with Shiva, Im no good at button-bashing..
But getting 250 with Eden was squeezy! :)

239 with brothers is my most impressive. And no, i didnt use turbo or auto fire.

155 with Quezacotl.

Beat that, it isnt easy.

I managed to get 250 with DoomTrain wich is very impresive I believe.

I got Bahamut on 167 once, which was a lot of button bashing, which is quite annoying ;_;
I can easily get around 170 for Ifrit because he's the only GF I used too much and stayed on Squall the entire time which leads to 1000 compatability(points) ^^

i have shiva at 100

<font color=red face="comic sans ms">I've got Quezacotl to about 185 before. My finger hurt afterwards though... :p I can get Alexander and Bahamut to about 220-230, and can get Eden to 250 easily (I think virtually anyone could do that ;)). I've never really used the other GF's that often at all.

I got to 150 with pixie (aka shiva) hard but I got lucky and I got max with eden.

Getting a boost with Eden of 250 is simple the summon just takes a long time so u just can't fail.

Ive actually gotten Doomtrain up to 250 once. Thats it. Only once.

250 with everyone i am maxed out over 2900 hours ofnplay -Jon

i never used boost
strange h�
or not

I got Eden 250 easy, the rest I really don't care that much about, so I don't really use them that much. GFs are good for junctioning, so I just tend to junction the max possible since I hardly ever summon them anyway. There's hardly anything that you can do with GFs that you can't do with magic. Cerberus is a nice one to quickly get all of your characters and double and triple, but you can't even boost that one.

Okay, so early in the game I use Quezacotl and Shiva and GFs like that, but later on it really just takes to long for me to bother.

Well I have to use the keyboard, but while I was at my cousins on his PS1, I could manage 195 with Ifrit, but on lucky attempts, over 200 with most of the gfs.

Ive got 211 with eden which i think is great!

Geez, you guys are good. Besides maxing with Eden I got 91 with Brothers.

250 with Eden

156 With Alexander

150 with normal short summons as Shive and Ifrit

Running with a AMD Athlon K7, full installation with software mode, A GeForce 3 that does'nt like 2D textures AT ALL, 256 MB RAM and a Dual Strike....

I got Eden up to 179! Whoop Whoop! Teh l33t or what?

can somebody explain to me what the hell a boost is? i've seen them but how do u use them

You guys are the worst excusses for FF8 Boosters I've ever heard of , even though the last post was in the year 2002 :P

My friend and I are going to see if we can get into the Guiness book of world records with oyur boosting numbers being higher then 200 on every GF there is... other then those that cannot boost of cause :P

Next post we will list what we have done so far.

Ciao

180+ with Leviathan&Infrit.

Don't revive old threads.

The nooblet gets the benefit of the doubt, but you really should know better LR.

I wonder if the guys with the biggest numbers have girlfriends :-P

Oh Didn't see date my mistake.

...I thought getting them to 250 was normal? I always get 250.

Heck, I don't even use Boost but my GF's attacks were strong.

Okay let�s start on the first flame,

This is a Final Fantasy Forum; if you have signed up on this form you tend to like Final Fantasy. Am I wrong here?

Look mate, I have run several Forums my self for quite a while and I hate it when people make NEW threads just because they cannot be arsed to SEARCH!

Therefore I had searched for any thread involving 'Boost'.

Now if you don�t mind, get off my back about it its not up to you where I post only myself and those with administrative rights, and why should you care if I look for a new thread or if I make a new one? I believe that EVERYONE that had posted in this thread prior to my post hasn�t been on this website since 2002.

And you�re on about not reviving an old thread? There will be absolute no difference to me or anyone else posting in this old thread then there would be posting in a new one, other than the current people viewing it are able to see the old posts, pathetic posts on how amazing their boosts are...

Second flame,

I'm quite sure that taking up, what? 30 seconds of my time boosting a GF is going to prevent me from SPENDING TIME with my girlfriend. I'm sorry but I think that your post is a waist of people�s time reading, and i have to say that so is what I'm posting now. But shall I also add this as I'm sure your American you have a perfectly good reason for being pathetic, non-the-less I've post on this site twice now, and at GMT.

Current time now is 23:30, look at the time stamp when this was posted and you can do the maths.

Kind regards to all that love this game and actually view this post to see what the highest boost is.

So far we can get 250 on all except those which cannot boost and Quezacotl, Shiva, Ifrit and Tonberry.

To those who haven�t played FF7 or 8, Play 8 first reasons being that people who tend to play 7 first don�t tend to like 8, however there are a few who would argue against this.

Kind regards to all

Happy gaming!!!

I feel like an idiot but I never learned how to boost lol can someone tell me?

I used to use a turbo controller to boost. I learned that most guardian forces are impossible to boost to 250.

But i forget what was my maximum for each with and without it

Yeah of cause :P

Once one of you're Guardian Forces have learned the abillity 'Boost'; during combat, once the GF ATB bar has depleated press and hold select, you will noticed a small icon in the bottem right hand corner of you're screen.

Now tap Square as quick as you can making sure not to press Square as the icon shows a Red Cross over it.

The Boost count starts at 75, and the aim is to reach 250, which is the max.

The GF's which cannot learn boost are (in order and why):

Diablos - This GF's damage is determined by the amount of Hit Points the enemy currently has. Though however, this can miss on certain bosses. ( Will edit when I remember which bosses these are :-D )

Carbuncle - This GF casts reflect on all allies, therefore there is no damage needed to boost.

Cerberus - This GF casts Triple on all allies, therefore there is no damage needed to boost.

Cactuar - This amazing GF damage is based on it's level. Ratio = level:damage 10:1000.

Good luck and happy Boosting!!!

I used to use a turbo controller to boost. I learned that most guardian forces are impossible to boost to 250.

Well as i've posted before in my long flame against two other users of this forum, i said :
So far we can get 250 on all except those which cannot boost and Quezacotl, Shiva, Ifrit and Tonberry.

and thats without the use of a turbo controler.

What was wrong with the edit button?

Because I can't really spell the names right, just bear with me here:
Quetzacotl- 178
Shiva- 175
Brothers- 193
Bahamaut- 250
Doomtrain- 250
Leviathan- 236
Alexander- 211
Eden- self-explanitory

What was wrong with the edit button?

238 with Siren...So Easy with Siren...hardly any crosses!!!

demolo --- if by any case you're still reading, I don't know that anybody's necessarily trying to "flame" you for what you did, although it's possible. However, for future reference, we have a standing policy on this board not to revive "old" threads --- defined as any thread not currently on the first page in a section. You're welcome to create a new topic and reference the old one in a link though.

What counts as an old thread then? No seriously think about it? Does it matter?

Ok let’s see, if I did what you have suggested, i.e. create a new thread with a link to this one, what does that do? 1: place the new thread as unread (i.e. on the top, so its viewable) 2: (link) if in the new thread i linked this page, people would have to do 2 things, one, read my newly created thread which is the sole purpose of clicking on it in the first place, and two, click on another link so they can view some posts in which the last was in the year 2002. - That’s your idea.

now, if I post in this thread, (which may I add hadn’t had a post in 4 years) people are able to view one thread, see other peoples posts, view mine, and add their own if they wanted. Saves time, bandwidth and database space.

Common, 4 years since the last post, old it may be, but that doesn’t make a difference to creating a new thread and linking this thread to the new one.

Also if it were a policy to which we all must obey, then it should be viewable when one registers on this forum. (Which it currently is not – if it should be, then by all means correct it.)

Admins and most MODs have the power on forums to close threads (unless the software that FFShrine is currently using is out of date, which I'm quite sure its not) which would be more sensible if there really was a policy.

Once again, I’m sorry to all those whom wish to view this thread for the sole purpose off the title name and have instead had to read a load of gibberish.

If you haven’t played Final Fantasy VIII then do so!

Kind regards to all, happy gaming and don’t forget to Boost!

238 with Siren...So Easy with Siren...hardly any crosses!!!

Yeah, actually its funny that, Siren was the GF (when i got her to 250) that had inspired me to get 250 to on all of them all those years ago.

hehe gota love it.

(sighs)

I have played Final Fantasy VIII, and apparently you have too, so here's something you should be able to understand pretty well:

... ... ... ... ...

I can get 250 with most of the GFs. i just put the controller in one hand, and I kind of scratch the button up and down with my nail on my other hand.
