Laguna Loire/Gameplay

Laguna is a temporarily playable character in Final Fantasy VIII, available during dream sequences in the story. He takes over Squall's junctions. Battles fought as Laguna have unique battle music. The Machine Gun is Laguna's weapon of choice. As with other characters, a Triple Triad card based on Laguna can be obtained.

Limit Break
Desperado—Laguna's Limit Break—damages all enemies at once. He first pulls out a hand-grenade, arms and tosses it into the middle of his opponents, then shoots a grappling hook above him and, as he swings from side to side on the grapple, fires multiple rounds with his machine gun down upon his enemies. Laguna jumps off the rope and lands with his back towards the foes as the grenade explodes, dealing damage to all enemies. It has a base attack power of 140.
