Final Fantasy VIII Triple Triad Hints
Find
Ko-Chocobo card in Disc 4
In order to find this card, you must have
defeated all the CC group members, the Card King, and have met at least one time
with the Card Queen. On the chain in Ultimecia's Castle, head to the northern
door (nearest to the castle) to return to the world map. There is a Chocobo
forest near here. Go and get a Chocobo, then head to the island where you found
Edea's home. There is a desert on this island where you will find the Ragnarok.
Enter and you will find Shu near the entrance. Start a card game with her after
the short dialogue, . Save before playing against her, as she is a difficult
opponent.
Find level 8 Chicobo Card
Go
to the beginners Chocobo Forest and find the mother Chocobo. Use the
"Zinner" for finding Chocobo's and listen carefully until you hear a
sound. Use the "Zinner" again to "Catch Chocobo" and
the mother Chocobo will dig up some items for you. Repeat this at all six
Chicobo forests, then head to the Chocobo Sanctuary in Esthar by using the mother Chocobo you get in the Chocobo forest on
the Plains in Centra. When
you arrive, all the mother Chicobos will do a dance. Talk to the baby Chocobo and
he will give you the card.

Find the Gilgamesh Card for Holy Wars
It
is very easy to get Gilgamesh's Card to get Holy Wars. If you have gotten the
card before Disc 4 from Card King, refine it into 10 Holy Wars when you reach
the Ragnarok in Disc 4. Make sure the rule use earlier is not too complicated.
Open, Sudden Death, Elemental are acceptable. "Same" is still
acceptable, but if "Plus" or "Random" is applied, it will be
more difficult. Both Xu and Quistis have the card in the Ragnarok. It is up to
you to play with either of them, but since Xu uses the rule applied earlier, it
is an advantage to play with her instead of Quistis (who uses all the rules). Xu
uses the card very frequently -- if it is not in your hand. It is possible to get
100 Holy Wars by this method.
Card game tips
Save
the game before playing an opponent you have not played before. If you use rare
cards someone might defeat you and take them. Card many enemies so that you can
card-mod them to get items. Also, play many people to get items, such as wizard
stones. Never give up a rare card - keep trying until you are successful. Be
patient if you cannot card a good enemy, just keep trying.
Once you get
Quistis and some Bomb cards, go to Balamb near the docks. You will see a man
leaning over or a girl and a dog in the area. Challenge them for level5 cards.
To create the best strategy for them, have 3 Marlboros, one Elastoise and one
Biggs & Wedge. First, use one Marlboro to the DL corner. Use another to the CL.
Use the Elastoise to either the UR or CR corner. Do the CR only if you cannot
place it UR. Then, depending on where they put their last card, is where you
should use the Biggs and Wedge card or the final Marlboro card. Using this
strategy, you will never lose with these two opponents. The worst you can do is
tie. However, this is only for the beginning parts of the game. The best time to
do this is immediately after the Fire Caves. You can get Squall's second best
sword easily by doing this at the very beginning of the game.
Missed cards
The
following trick can be used to get cards missed during the CC Quest and the Queen
of Cards Quest. On Disc 4, all the CC members are scattered around the Ragnarok,
but only if you have defeated the CC King earlier in the game. To get cards
missed in the Queen of Cards Quest, you will find the Queen on the southern
peninsula of the Esthar continent. She is not visible on the world map, so you
will have to do some searching. Note: The CC members use various rules from
around the world. The Queen will always use all the rules.
You can
find the Card Queen on the Abadan Plains, south of Esthar. She will have any card
you would have obtained during the Queen of Cards side quest in the previous
discs. Go to any of the CC members or the Card Queen and win any rare card from
him/her. Using Quezacotl's Card Mod ability, you can refine it into a rare
item(s). Repeat this to get many rare items.
Get a card back
To
get a card back, challenge your opponent again. There is a 50%chance that he or
she might use the card you lost.
Obtaining Rare Cards
To
obtain rare cards like Iguon, Tri-point, Gargantua, Jumbo Cactuar,etc. just look
at the bottom right corner of your card stats when you win one. A list of two
monsters will appear. Keep carding the first monster until you get the card which
has the monster listed. Once you have got the card and you want another one, keep
carding the second monster until you get one. Then, repeat this process.
Easily Removing one card Game Rule
Go
to the region that you want to remove the rule. Ask people to play the game.
After the menu that shows the region, "Trade Rule" will appear. Quit
the card game without playing. Repeat this several times until the menu displays
that the rule "... is abandoned from this region".
Play cards with Zell
When
Squall takes charge of Balamb Garden, compose a party without Zell. If you go to
the first floor, you will find him near the library. You cannot play cards with
him. He is not a great opponent and he does not have good cards. |
