>_<
i guess i'll never get completely used to Final Fantasy IX's environment. i think it's either my equipment, my assigned skills, or both. well, i've beaten the game before, but i wanted to beat it again to show one of my friends the ending. so i loaded an old file
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
when i fought the final boss, i had Zidane, Garnet, Eiko, and Freija on my side, all level 60+. anyways, i forgot about his damn Grand Cross attack. so whenever he cast it, it always took me 3-6 turns to recover
the routine was to have Freija and Zidane attack. Eiko and Garnet then took turns casting shell and healing spells on the party, but Eiko was mainly there for haste and dispel
in the end, my whole party fell except for Eiko, who only had a handful of hp left. in a last ditch effort, i sent out Madeen, and surprisingly that was enough to kill the monster
End of Spoiler
but what annoys the hell out of me is that one of my friends said he beat the game with ease, and his characters were only 40+ >_<
man, Weigraf is an awesome boss. and very true! difficult in a good way! nothing about him was cheap, like a lot of other bosses. he was just one tough bastard to take down

the easiest way to beat weigraf is to cover your body in peanutbutter.
no, actually my trick was to have the second job class as the squire job and have "accumulate" learnt, any time they had nothing to do just accumulate and get job points/ TRADEMARK DUTCH SCHULTZ!
i was wicked at tactics, all my guys had chaos blades and peanutbutter all over their bodies~
Bah, in my Time Mage SCC (Only Time Mage class and abilities allowed), I defeated Wiegraf with a single, well placed Short Charge Meteor... An I was only at level 19 or 20...
And speaking of FF9, I haven't finished the game yet (I'm now in the 4th CD, completing subquests), but the game so far is eaaaaaasy. It's easy before auto-regen, but after that is just ridiculous. Against bosses, I have my party wait (not defend, nor heal, just wait), until Zidane is done stealing (and sometimes, that takes a while), and then, destroy the poor boss. It's sad, but true. The only challenge has to be that freaking marble (you know who I'm talking about). I first found it at level 35 or so, and obviously, I was massacred. Things will change with my new powers soon...

 God, this scares me! I'm EXACTLY in your same situation in this game.
About the stealing then killing part, well, they've been the most boring boss battles I've ever had... and definitely not dificult.
I haven't fought the last boss but I got through all the last dungeon when I entered it once, just to "see how it looked like", and I let that kind of "snake" before the boss battle kill me 'cause I wanted to do the subquests (*@#$+*# Mognet, do they really give you only THAT?? It cost me ages to find... Moisu, I think, the one in the ice cave). How are you going on that, BTW?
I almost don't play the game, didn't (and don't) know where to go or what to do...
PS: No hints please, I'm trying to find 'em myself...

Hehe, I haven't entered
Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
Ifa tree yet, I'm awaiting to complete the subquests, but I think that I'll enter after the Mognet Central, just to pick the items & summon there are... So far I've doe the Excalibur, Chocobo (except tthe beaches part, which I'm not going to do) and other little ones subquests, but I'm going to leave some, like the cards, the chocobo beaches, and of course, Excalibur II, that one's insane. Why am I still in spoiler mode? Because this are spoilers, I think.
BTW, I'm guilty: I used a faq to find Moisu (in the fossil path)

FFT is like FF1 and FF5... too much fun when you limit yourself to specific jobs. (All about 4 Black Mages/White Mages in FF1) Mmmm... I think I might have to go back and play FFT again over the 6 week winter break. :P

Yes, the "jawbreaker" is indeed a pain in the ass. Very beatable, though, with a good battle plan and a little luck (it can wipe out any party, no matter how strong, with the proper sequence of attacks).
