This is a walkthrough for the Fujin and Raijin boss battle from the game Final Fantasy VIII (FF8, FFVIII). Read on for tips and strategy about how to beat Raijin, including Raijin's stats and other useful information.

How to Beat Fujin and Raijin

Preparation

Draw Command, a female character (optioinal), restorative items. Junction Blind or Sleep to status attacks.

Moveset

Fujin will use Wind magics and physical attacks. She will be unable to use this magic once you draw Pandemona from her. She will also use Sai when her HP is low. Sai reduces a party members HP to 1. Raijin will have a new move called Raijin Special that he will use when his HP gets low.

Strategy

Immediately draw Pandemona to remove all threats of Magic attacks from Fujin. After taking Pandemona, draw and cast Protect on everyone. Focus on Raijin first as brining Fujin to low HP may cause her to use Sai, and if Raijin follows this up, it can result in instant death.

Tips and Strategy #4

Make sure to draw Pandemona from Fujin before the battle is over.
