you don't junction cards themselves, you get the ability "card mod" which turns cards into items. You can get a lot of strong spells by then turning these items into spells, you can then junction the strong spells for huge stats.
After getting these you can rush through the game pretty fast.
Whilst still in garden (not sure how far through i actually am) i have several ultimas already, in theory i could grind beating the card king repeatedly to get 100 which gives a ridiculous attack stat. Currently using 100 holy's which i don't think i've even found a draw point for yet.
To access the card king, you'll need to battle all the other card club members which i believe you can do as soon as garden starts moving. After you've fought all the others you need to sleep in the bed inside garden in the hospital area, might need to do this more than once and try switching your team around if it doesnt work first time.

Try and get your rule changed to "all" when you've figured out how to play reasonably well, so then you win all 5 cards per card game.

i'm reasonably sure the "abyss worm" is the one you need for tornados which is the really big one early on, quake is also nice but can't remember which cards give dino bones other than trexaur's.


I think ill play thru the game at a steady pace instead lol

For Cards, farm Mesmerize early as well, and Falchian F card mod on the Beach by your Garden. Quick like +50 str and +2000 health lol

Its def a little more difficult that others IMO but if you know some little "Cheats" you can just murder the game.

To my knowledge, this is the only Final Fantasy where the Enemies Level up with you. If youre level 80 on Disc 1, they are too. So you dont really get a break by over leveling.

You get that big advantage early on with stat boosting from spells and such at a lower level.

Yea i heard about that in a video that they level up with you which is kind of dumb and makes stats almost useless(if you arent abusing the junction system) but imma try my best.... i think when i stopped long ago it was to kill someone on a bus/train(start of the game) and he morphed into a boss and i never got past him.. hope that changes this time around

Can confirm now it was that fake president on the train mission, it was pretty easy to kill and now i believe im on disc 2 right after the edea fight(i dunno when the disc changes are but the save menu is forced so i got that as a hint)

Sup, I hate the Train portion of the game. One of my least favorites.

And yea, disc 2 is right after Edea Ice Shards Squall.

How are you enjoying it so far?
