MISSABLE CHEEV

It looks like this could be a trend. This just happened to me on the Tonberry buddy

confirmed that it DID NOT unlock for me (nor his card) and i have him junctioned to Zell.


unfortunately for me i did not create a separate save prior and i have overwritten the current save. So needless to say I will need to start the game over, unless a "glitch" is found

Ok, so there is a glitch with it not unlocking. I had to reload a previous save to unlock it.

In the fight, you can blind him and i would suggest having stocked up on doubles.

Cast double on the guy with double, then when its there turn again cast it on the other 2 party members. Whilst stocking up on demi from and cast it twice on diabolo as it decreases a single opponent's HP by 1/4 of its current HP. With double you will take him down in no time and when it shows he is taking less than 100 damage hit with other magic or another GF.

Oh and he heals people that use Demi on him with Curaga.

My squad was level 23-25 when i attempted it.

How is this missable? When I tried to leave without talking to cid he stopped me and gave me the item and according to you I can use it at any time to fight diablos when I'm strong enough right?

*MISSABLE*

Diablos is an optional GF that can be obtained after completing the Training Center area inside Balamb Garden (page 5 of the Jegged walkthrough). Once you get outside and speak to Cid, you must speak with him a second time manually to be given the Magical Lamp item. Using this from your inventory will initiate a battle against Diablos. Summon and defeat him to unlock him for use.

To obtain it, use the Magic Lamp that Cid will give you before leaving for Timber, and then defeat the Diablos who appears. This is not an easy matter, so it is recommended to first level up your heroes (get Healing and Blindness). You can use the item later, but the power of the summon will increase in parallel with your development.

I don't agree with the hint above. You can get it immediately when leaving the garden, without even swinging. To do this, at the very beginning of the battle you need to blind Diablo (throw Blind on him) - after that he will not be able to kill you. You can also draw Demi from it (just be warned, since your magic skill is not fully developed, it will take a long time to draw).

The fight is simple. Pull out the demi and use it. The boss responds with healing, but heals your party. Demi needs to be stretched to the maximum, this will simplify the passage, but if you are really lazy, then

Demi must first be pulled into storage, and only then used through magic. And yes, it’s better not to follow the first hint and not get into a fight with Diablos, because... The more the characters are pumped up, the stronger he becomes.
