There are certain items the player can use to increase the compatibility rate for the GFs to arrive faster during combat. When selected, the ATB gauge begins to run backwards and the character's name and HP are replaced by the GF's name and HP.
GFs take time to be summoned, and the time taken depends on the character/GF compatibility. They require junctioning to characters to be used, as well as to use their inherent abilities. Summoned monsters are known as Guardian Forces, often abbreviated to GFs.
Pressing the trigger button just as Squall is attacking an enemy has him deal an automatic critical hit. There are three members to a party, and unlike in previous entries, Final Fantasy VIII doesn't differentiate between front and back row and any party member can attack any target. This eliminates the convention of magic points, but encourages players to hoard and conserve spells both for direct use and for junctioning them to different stats associated with Guardian Forces, who also hold the learning of new abilities.Įnemies are random encountered on the field. Instead of leveling up to learn new spells and abilities via weapons or a job class, the player must draw the spells from enemies and draw points, hotspots scattered throughout the game containing random numbers of a specific spell, or create them from items. The gameplay differs from previous titles, the draw and junction systems being the most notable changes.

Instead, magic is collected, drawn, and created from items, and is used to power up the characters via the junction system. In addition, it does not have a Magic Point-based system for spell-casting. While it still uses the Active Time Battle system, it deviates from the series' traditional means of boosting a character's power via leveling (although levels are not completely abandoned as they were in Final Fantasy II). The gameplay makes a departure from many series standards. Squall and his friends are enlisted to help a group known as the Forest Owls led by Rinoa Heartilly, an endeavor that escalates into a conflict against the forces led by Sorceress Edea.
