I Used to Like Garudas
Posted by Mike Blitz on March 20th, 2007
But no more.
For the third time, the damn Garuda bird ripped us apart. However, we almost made it this time, as our jumping Dragoon was doing some serious damage. However, once Garuda starts dropping lightning around like some freak thunderstorm, we go down for the count. One hit with chain lightning is ripping us apart for 400+ hit points on each of our four characters. Since he gets two attacks per turn, it doesn’t take much for our 900-hit-point party members to be lying around dead.
Normally I’d take the advice of one of my favorite Despair.com posters, which says: “Winners never quit and quitters never win. But those that never win and never quit are morons.” Point is, it’s time to run away and come back later. But I’m stuck in this damn town: the gates are locked and the Enterprise is in pieces. To get out of here, we’ve got to take down Garuda Badass.
I’ll try adding another Dragoon, and I’ll take the party back to the Tower for some leveling up. Surely with two Dragoons and another level of experience, we can take this guy out. Tomorrow, yes, tomorrow is the day. It better be, as I’m running out of Garuda photos.

If it comes down to it, you can always try with 4 dragoons, if you’re lucky (or really lucky) your 4 caracters will be in the air when he chains his lightnings. By he way, he IS one of the hardest bosses in the game, so don’t give up!

Yeah, as far as I know, four dragoon’s is the most effective tactic against this boss. It’s not like you can’t switch back to your favored team after the battle…
