alrighty, i'm at the point where i'm really bored and i want to play god for some reason...
i need to max out my characters' HP, Strength, Magic, Vitality, Speed, Spirit, and Luck (through obtaining items: HP Up, Str Up, Mag Up, etc. -or devouring certain monsters that raise your abilities by one each time) but i don't know where to get an abundant source of all of these and i need suggestions on what monsters to defeat or devour to get them

<font color=red face="comic sans ms">If you're not level 100 yet, equip the Str Bonus, Vit Bonus, Mag Bonus and Spr Bonus abilities to increase your stats by 1 every time you level up. If you're already at level 100, it's too late for that now. The best way to increase stats is by Devouring the following monsters:

Ruby Dragon - HP +10
T-Rexaur - Str +1
Adamantoise - Vit +1
Behemoth - Mag +1
Malboro - Spr +1

You can also devour PuPu for a Spd +1 bonus, but then you don't get a card or an item. You can also devour Rinoa in the fight against Adel for a 10% boost to HP, but then it's game over. :D ;)

And the enemies listed have to be at L30+ to give you any stat boosts. :)

thanks, you're really sweet for helping me out there.:D
...is there no other way to max out my speed other than with what you've suggested?
-because those monsters are "once-in-a-lifetime" occurances (and there is no spd bonus ability)
if you don't know for sure, i think i can refine some items into
Spd Ups (but it would be better if there was an easier way)

<font color=red face="comic sans ms">Yeah, the fastest way is to get a speed increase is using Spd Ups. It takes a lot of refining to get these. I think the fastest way is to get 100 Cactus Thorns from Cactuar Island which will refine into a Hundred Needles. This will refine into a Spd Up (I think... :uh?: )

But yeah, that's the fastest way to get your speed stat up I'm afraid. :\ You can also use Spd+40%, Auto-Haste, and junction 100 Triples to your Speed stat; that's about the best way...

100 needles - gf learns retun damage ability!!!!
wots that?????

i woz kinda hoping devourin cactuars would give a speed +1 but it just give you full life!!!!
