Make sure you grind whenever possible. Make sure you get the double growth weapons so you can level up your Materia very quick. There is a hallway in the Ancient Temple where you can farm massive amounts of AP with the double and triple growth weapons. Oh, and the enemies at that spot drop Turbo Ethers. Stay until you get 99 of those.

Make sure you stay away from Ruby and Diamond Weapon until you max everything out...

That works...if you want to get slaughtered by the end-game bosses.

This is the reason I've never been able to finish a FF game. I can't stand walking around slaying random monsters for hours on end so I can level up to get the one move I need to defeat the next boss. Probably my #1 gaming pet peeve.

The Midgar Zolom the first time you encounter, that mfer is tough if you don't cheat and use the Chocobo....also dont fug with emerald or ruby weapon till you have done some major grinding....

Wrong.

These games practically play themselves at the end. Grinding is a waste of time unless you want to fight the optional bosses which aren't challenging just grueling.

Really?

You must have never encountered Ruby Weapon. You can't beat him unless you spend countless hours grinding. He's challenging, to put it lightly.

I wouldn't call it cheating...in fact, I think it's what you're supposed to do; because the first time I played it I trained until I could beat the Zolom--and by the time I could I was level 30 and the rest of the game was hopelessly easy (save for the weapons)--which was fine for me because I care for the story more than gameplay anyway, but if someone does want a challenge then beating the Zolom the first time might not be the best way to go.

Not to mention Emerald: not only do you have to get a special materia for him, BUT, the way I beat him required leveling up Knights of the Round so that I could cast it twice (Tonberry's FTW), then leveling up "Pheonix" to AT LEAST four uses per battle, THEN leveling up Mime until it was complete and "spawned" another one (at least that's what I think happened). And it still took me half an hour to beat him.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
