Angelo: Raising abilities

To raise Angelo's abilities, which are learned by the amount you have walked, go to Esthar, land the Ragnarok at the Airstation and run past the first screen. Turn left, and proceed to the Esthar Presidential Palace. When you get there, make your way back to the Airstation. That should be enough walking to trigger an ability.

Laguna: Lunatic Pandora doors

When you become Laguna for the second time in the game (before Galbadia Garden) you will be in a weird Centra Ruin (its actually part of Lunatic Pandora). After walking around a bit you will end up in a room with three doors on the ground. Go to the upper right corner of the first one and you can break the handle. Leave, then return and try this on the one to the far right. It will not break yet. Also try it on the one to the far left. After that, you will reach a room near the exit and a little bomb is will be on the floor. Hit the red one first, then the blue/ The other doors will open now. You cannot do anything about this until on Disc 3, when you enter Lunatic Pandora with Zell and Edea. Find the room with three elevators, go down the third one, and take the stairs to the right. Climb down the ladder and head left. Keep going and you will end up in a room with the three doors Laguna worked with. You can now enter them and get some great items.

Laguna: Timber Maniacs page

You can read the Timber Maniacs you find at the computer in Balamb (second floor class room). Go the Garden Festival page and there should be a page called Sir Laguna's Page. You can only see it after you get Selphie back from the missile base mission.

Laguna: Traffic jam

When you first enter Deling City as Laguna, go to the hotel, then immediately leave. There will be a traffic jam on all roads because Laguna parked in the middle of the road.

Quistis: Shockwave Pulsar

To obtain the Blue magic Shockwave Pulsar, gain 100 Energy Crystals from either Elnoyles, Behemoths, or Ruby Dragons. Make sure you have GF Tonberry's Rare Item ability first. Morph the Energy Crystals into a Dark Matter and give it to Quistis to learn Shockwave Pulsar.

Riona: Invincible Moon limit break

Find he Pet Pals magazine with the Invincible Moon on it. Then click on it at Riona's status screen. Leave it there and do not learn any more tricks. If you did not learn any tricks before that, every time you use Riona's Limit Break it will be Invincible Moon instead of something less useful such as Angelo Cannon.

Selphie: Always get "The End" Limit

This trick can be used for an automatic kill for any enemy or Boss except for the undead. Whenever you get Selphie's limit break in battle, open the PlayStation lid. The screen will glitch, but the area where you select Selphie's limit will be intact. During this time the enemy will not attack. Take your time and scroll through the limits by pressing the Square repeatedly until you get her "The End" limit.

Zell: Pushups

When you are in Disc 1 at the Galbadian Garden, find the area where students doing pushups. When you are leaving, go back to that hallway and you should see Zell also doing pushups.

Zell: Kickboxing

On Disc 3 when you play as Zell, stand on the world map and do nothing. He starts to kickbox.

Zell: Entering his room

When Balamb Town is invaded by Galbadia, go to the Inn. Once you cannot get in, go to Zell's house and go to his room. He will let you in this time (and any other time after you cleared out Balamb).

Zell: Armageddon Fist

To use Zell's Armageddon Fist, simply use his two weakest moves (Punch Rush and Booya) repeatedly. It only takes fractions of seconds to do each move, and with good stats, each move does around 5000 HP damage. In four seconds you can do each move five times which is 50,000 damage. With 11 seconds, you can do over 150,000 damage. After casting Meltdown, Aura, and using only one Holy-War Omega Weapon can be defeated with 15 hits of Armageddon Fist only. Note: The strength stat should be at 255 for best results.

Cast Aura magic on Zell. Perform Zell's limit break. Perform Punch Rush (Circle, X) and Booya (Right, Left) several times in a row.

Zell: Best limit break

Many people think that Squall's limit Break "Lion Heart" is the best. It is, but it may be not the best limit break to depend on. The chance for using it is so low that it is hard to use more that once during a battle, especially when fighting Omega. The most dependable limit break is Zell's limit break, but is restricted by time. His "Booya", "Heel Drop" and "Punch Rush" are best used during the battle because they are the easiest to do. They have a sequence, which is "Booya", followed by "Heel Drop" or "Punch Rush", then return back to "Booya" again. It is useless to look at the list because they will always be there. If the sequence "Booya", "Punch Rush", "Booya" is followed, it will produce the best result. Since each attack cause about 4000 damages when the Zell's Str is 230, 8+ sec can takes 44 times damage. The total added damage will be 44 times 4000 (176,000). It is more than the damage of "Lion Heart", which is 9999 times 17 (169,983), not counting the few slashes made before "Lion Heart". Zell's limit is guaranteed as long as you are fast enough.
