Finds hidden Save/Draw Points

Description

Move-Find is a support ability in Final Fantasy VIII that reveals hidden draw points and save points on field locations as long as it is equipped to a member of the active party. Hidden draw points can still be used even without revealing them, but save points cannot.

Obtained[]

Move-Find is a party ability learned through the Guardian Force Siren for 40 AP. Siren is drawn from the boss at the top of Dollet Communications Tower or from Tri-Point in the final dungeon. If the player removes Move-Find with Amnesia Greens, there is no way to get it back.

Mechanics[]

Junctioning Siren and equipping Move-Find to a character in the active party uncovers hidden draw points and save points in the field. Draw points on the world map are always invisible and cannot be discovered by equipping Move-Find. There are no save points on the world map as the player can save their game anywhere, but hidden save points in field locations need to be revealed to be used. Hidden draw points can be discovered and used even without Move-Find active by pressing the action button in the correct spot.

Use[]

Timber Maniacs issue in Dollet Pub Upstairs from FFVIII R

The save point in Dollet pub only appears if the player party has Move-Find equipped.

Move-Find is a great ability to learn early for a cheap 40 AP and to keep equipped at all times, at least when exploring new areas to make sure the player will not miss anything. Some hidden draw points are in unrevisitable locations, such as the one outside during the Battle of the Gardens for Aura.

Tri-Faces are a good source of Curse Spikes, fought in numerous quantities in the mid-game Battle of the Gardens event, in the area before the auditorium. The player could farm here and use the area's hidden save point.

The only way to save right before engaging Ultima Weapon is to have Move-Find at the Deep Sea Deposit area of Deep Sea Research Center. After saving there, the player can swap it for an ability that has utility in battle.

Using the hidden save point in Dollet pub can make Queen of Cards quest earlier by saving the game there before challenging her.
