Please take note.
There seems to be an interwoven relationship with women and magic. In Final Fantasy VIII’s world, it seems as if anyone can draw magic. But any woman can conceivably be a sorceress.
And the females in Final Fantasy VIII have the highest magical ability.
Somehow, Squall’s half-sister Ellone (Big Sis) has the innate ability to fling a person’s consciousness into time. Quistis can learn an enemy’s skill and mimic it through Blue Magic. Rinoa and Edea actually inherited sorceress powers. But one woman’s magical powers exceed even the final antagonist, the sorceress Ultimecia. And that’s Selphie Tilmitt.
Slots Full Cure(Selphie) Last updated: 2020/09/27 09:50. Slots Full Cure(Selphie) Stats. Effect: Instantly restore a large amount of HP to all allies and grant them. Spell sets selected are based on Selphie's level, Crisis Level and a random factor that the game throws in. Since you are doing a lv1 play through a lot of spells will be hard if not outright impossible to get as the chances of getting higher slots sets is hampered by her level and crisis lv cannot make up that deficit even at lv 4. Slot - Selphie Tilmitt Selphie’s Limit Break is one of the easier ones to master. All you do is select either “Do Over' or “Cast” Selecting “Do Over' will cause another spell to be displayed while selecting “Cast' will cause the currently selected spell to be cast. Moreover, I think 'Slots' is a gamified hand-waving of Selphie trying to recollect forgotten spells. Think Tellah's 'Recall' ability from FF4. When used, he tried to Recall a random spell for free, including spells he hasn't 'learned'.
Like the other females, Selphie’s able to use magic outside the normal junction function. They are:
Full Cure – Restores all party members’ HP and removes all status effects.
Wall – Casts Protect and Shell on all party members.
Rapture – Wings appear and carry enemies away. It does not work on enemies immune to eject.
The End – The party instantaneously wins the battle. Works against all enemies apart from undead creatures and the percentile range for this particular slot coming up is low.
Let’s talk about The End for a second. It’s a very power limit break. So powerful, it can kill every enemy (except for the undead)…including bosses. So if you have Selphie in your party as you’re fighting Ultimecia, she’s as good dead. If you use The End.
So what is The End?
The End (ジエンド, Ji Endo?) is a recurring ability in the series. It is the ultimate Limit Break for Selphie Tilmitt, which defeats all enemies and ignores immunity to Instant Death, much like the similar Slots ability Game Over and Joker’s Death, with the exception of undead enemies.
The End is the rarest ability that Selphie can use from her Slots Limit Break, only appearing at the very end of the Slots list in Slot set 15 and with a very low chance of appearing. It defeats any enemy in the game excluding undead. During battles with multiple phases, it will instantly end that phase and move onto the next phase.
Also, The End is a play on words. While it might be “the end” of enemies, it’s also the scene at the end of the game:
Squall finds himself in a place gradually slipping into nothingness. He tries to concentrate on Rinoa to make his way back home but is unable to picture her face. In the present era, Rinoa waits for Squall at the flower field at Edea’s orphanage. She transforms a flower petal into a white feather that locates Squall trapped in lost time. He grasps the feather but is too weak to make his way back and falls unconscious, but Rinoa finds him and brings him back to the real world.
Rinoa knows about the flower field at Edea’s orphanage, but Selphie is the only one who’s able to cast it. She, in order to link everyone else to each other, casts The End to bring them home. The Limit Break kills all of the monsters in the area.
But why is The End so power? Maybe it’s because Selphie is a sorceress. Probably from an alternative time in Final Fantasy. And maybe this is why all women have the potential to be sorceresses. Maybe from the infinite amounts of timelines, sorceresses find different women to transfer their power to. Maybe in this timeline, Ultimecia possesses Rinoa, whereas another sorceress possesses Selphie. Ans Selphie’s sorceress was more powerful than Ultimecia, and maybe even the agent working against her all along.
Selphie's Limit Break:Slot When you select Selphie's Slot, a menu of spells will appear at the bottom of the screen.In the menu you will find regular spells, and spells with numbers by them. The numbers indicate the amount of times the spellwill be cast. There is also an option to 'Do Over', which replaces the current spell with a new one. If you are looking for one of Selphie'sLimit spells, this is the option to choose. Do not worry about hitting enemies with restorative magic, or allies with offensivemagic. Even if Selphie becomes confused, this will not happen. The hardest spell to get is 'The End'. It requires Selphie to be in the highest levels, and the most critical HP. It is byfar the best attack in the game. I was able to use it one time against Omega, and it even killed him. |
