    Dude I did this in real time. As a kid I didn’t learn how to switch out my equipment til I got to costa del sol! My dad kept asking why I didn’t switch my equipment, and I was like, “chill dad, when I level up it will change to something new.” Looking back, I’m really lucky he was so patient with me.

    Of course!
    I did this when I was in High school, I did the added challenge of no materia too. So it was brutal, cait sith was the saving grace due to his ability to use magic and summons with slots. Also Vincent's LBs for stat boosts. Wad insanely hard when you get to end game, the rest of it is just grind exp to be a high level.

    • @warangelcpgamebreak
      @warangelcpgamebreak ปีที่แล้ว +1

      FF8 can easily be beaten with not upgrading weapons. Unless, you aren't allowed to make items through cards and turn them into passive skills, then that might be a problem. You don't need new weapons in FF8. You just need GFs. Base GFs( Quezocotal Shiva and Ifrit only, might be impossible. FF8 is all about GFs and making items you get from cards or Drawing.

      It was a very enlightening run, and on the whole running from combat thing, I think I maybe did it sometimes but mostly fought each fight because levels were the only way of upping damage on the characters pretty much so fighting every encounter lessened the strain of grinding even if by just a small margin. I got lucky on some of the boss fights but hojo was just a huge dps check and if I didn't outlast his mp that one time I probably would have just ended the run out of frustration tbh lmao. Definitely learned a lot with this run and also wutai is now my favorite grind location because of easy x-potions and barrier items.

      No accessories however and Ruby weapon is IMPOSSIBLE TO KoTR even IT to death at lvs over 60 so Ribbon user against it is a must.
      Ruby weapon is IMMUNE TO BOTH the Demi spells and the ITEMS that cause it and even the LASER enemy skill will FAIL to damage Ruby weapon.
      Without Magic Plus even Demi magic can FAIL against Emerald weapon but is useless Demi 3 doing 9999 to Emerald weapon won't even restore 999 HP via HP absorb making Demi completely useless.

    Why not use Enemy Skill Materia, and collect all of the best Enemy Skills? This would give 1 character a great amount of versatility.

    • @BakaBenny
      @BakaBenny  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That would work and could be really effective, but for the rules I set on myself I couldn't use any materia if it didn't come with a character when I got them :)

      @BakaBenny ahh! I thought it was just a limit on actual equipment like weapons/gear. Not allowing yourself to change materia makes it much worse.

      Yo! not to worry, I had to play it back to figure out what you meant and so - If you are referring to the health difference at the end of the game it's primarily because of all the extra grinding we did between wutai and the sephiroth fight. If you are referring to the jenova fight in the crater then it's because when Vincent uses the death gigas limit break his health doubles when using that form as well as us losing control of the character.

      if this is asking about the Hyper/Tranq effects which I am thinking is the question, Hyper puts a character into fury status which increases limit gauge fill, atb time goes faster, makes the chara take more damage, and buffs atk power at the cost of debuffing either vitality or defense. it can also cure the sadness effect. Tranquilizers on the other hand make the limit gauge fill slower, slower atb time, buffs defense at the cost of debuffing atk or strength still unsure of which it actually effects, and can cure the fury status.

      @@sir.raphimrevelator8644 it says starting equipment,which means any items the characters started with such as potions (if any ) and materia such as nanakis materia as well . Cloud didn't start with all those options and high potions and revives ,I own the game myself .if your going to buy items that you didn't start with that's not an "only starting equipment run" an only starting equipment run is not buying any items ,not opening up chests not picking up any items in the game . You use EACTLY what your character started with . He didn't give nanaki or barret grenades ,he kept tifa with her glove and armor as well . I'm just saying if your going for an only starting equipment run that locks you out of shops and world items as well.
