Final Fantasy IX Quina's Abilities
Eat = Blue Magic
During any battle, Quina can attempt to Eat an enemy; however, the enemy must be
in a weakened state (near death) for this to succeed. After selecting the Eat
command, Quina will tell you whether the monster is ready to be eaten. If the
enemy is weak enough, Quina will simply eat it. As the monsters you encounter
become more powerful, it becomes difficult for Quina to eat them and learn
abilities. Use Dagger's Scan ability to determine the current HP of each
monster. When its HP gets low, only have your weakest attackers strike and then
keep trying to eat the monster each round. Casting spells such as Slow or Mini
will aid in the digestion process.
Quina can eat almost any kind of monster, and even some Boss monsters too. The
abilities that Quina learns enable you to perform some tricks that will help you
kill monsters and confront Bosses more effectively. Since some monsters only
appear up to a certain point in the game, try to eat various monsters as you
encounter them to learn as many abilities as you can.
Frog Catching
In addition to Quina’s Eat ability, Quina will also ask if s/he can catch frogs
whenever you enter the frog pond area of a Qu’s Marsh. There is one Qu’s Marsh
on the Mist Continent, one on the Outer Continent, and two on the Forgotten
Continent. Quina can catch frogs in any of these ponds.
As Quina catches more and more frogs, Master Quale rewards Quina’s progress with
items and equipment. When Quina catches 99 frogs, s/he must challenge Quale to
see who is the new master.
The other benefit of catching frogs is that the power of Quina’s Frog Drop
ability depends on the number of frogs that have been captured. The damage
follows this formula:[Quina's Level x (amount of frogs)] = HP Damage
For example, if Quina is at level 50 and you have 99 frogs, then Frog Drop will
cause 4950 HP damage. Frog Drop damage is non-elemental, and the attack never
misses!
Quina Frog Drop
The number of frogs s/he catches determines how much damage the "Frog Drop"
attack causes.
