How to Maximize Your Basic MP and Attack Point in FF VIII



Final Fantasy VIII, the most unique series among all Final Fantasy series, in this game, if you do the leveling until the top level without using any walkthrough, you wouldn’t get much of a progress. Well, I have a good news, I have a unique trick to maximize your MP and Attack. But, you need a lot of effort and time to do this trick, let’s get started.
First, follow the storyline until you arrive on the story when Squall has to go to Timber to fight Galbadian soldiers. Stick with the storyline and don’t do any leveling until you meet the spiderlike robot that would chase you.
Second, this is the most sacred part. If you follow the first step, you must obtained 3 Guardian Forces (Ifrit, Shiva, and Quezacotl) now. Now lock the Ifrit’s  ability, Attack + 20%, and lock the Shiva’s ability, Magic + 20%. After choose the abilities, fight the spiderlike monster and keep beat him even he was done already to gain 60 AP. After beat that monster for the first round, you have already unlocked the abilities you locked. Well, then keep do the same thing and keep repeat it until you unlocked the ability Attack Bonus and Magic Bonus.
Third, this step is quite hard, you have to go to Exercise Center to do the leveling until the maximal level. Don’t forget to equip Ifrit and Shiva to use their Attack Bonus ability and Magic Bonus ability. The function of Magic Bonus ability is to increase your Magic point up to 1 each time your level increasing, and Attack Bonus ability has the same effect but it increasing the Attack point.
Fourth, do step 3 to every playable character to maximize the MP and the Attack. If you’re in a party of three, kill one or two of your friends and let them dead and you have to equip the Shiva and Ifrit while doing the leveling, keep repeating this step to all characters.
