Limit Breaks
Squall
Squall's limit break, Renzokuken, consists of various flashy gunblade attacks.
| Limit Break | Weapons |
|---|---|
| Rough Divide | Revolver |
| Fated Circle | Shear Trigger, Cutting Trigger |
| Blasting Zone | Flame Saber, Twin Lance, Punishment |

Selphie
Selphie's limit break randomly casts Spells. These Spells are "freebies"—they do not come out of your inventory. Do Over spins again to choose a new spell. Some of Selphie's spells are obviously favorable. Here are the good ones:
| Spell | Effect |
|---|---|
| FullCure | Cures all Party Members |
| Wall | casts Protect and Shell on all Party Members |
| Rapture | removes enemy from battle. Useless on bosses or undead monsters. |
| The End | instantly kills any enemy, including bosses. (exception: X-ATM092) Very rare, but appears more frequently at higher levels. |
Rinoa
Rinoa's first Limit Break uses her dog, Angelo. You learn these abilities from Pet Pals Magazines.
| Attack | Effect |
|---|---|
| Angelo Rush | Damage single enemy |
| Angelo Recover | Restore HP to a party member with low HP |
| Angelo Reverse | Revive party member |
| Angelo Search | Search Enemy for Items |
| Angelo Cannon | Damage all enemies |
| Angelo Strike | Damage one enemy |
| Invincible Moon | Makes all party members invincible |
| Wishing Star | Major Damage all enemies |
Rinoa's second limit break is called Angel Wing. Gained on Disc 3, this limit break causes Rinoa to cast random spells on every turn. This can be helpful... but it's totally random, so many of her turns are wasted.

Irvine
Irvine's Shot ability is powerful once you obtain some AP Ammo. Time your shots correctly, you'll have to practice to get the most out of it.
Laguna
Laguna's limit break is called Desperado. There's not much to say about it. Laguna swings (from a rope attatched to nothing) and shoots. It's pretty cool.Seifer
Seifer's limit break is Fire Cross. Choose whatever sounds good from the list. Straight forward, but you don't get many chances to use it.
