Final Fantasy 8. What level should I be by this point in the game?

to kill NORG you have to target his pod/shell thing then finish him off. Attacking the nodes wont kill him, they are to prevent him from casting some annoying spells. If you can't target him in the middle of the nodes, keep pressing different direction ons but you should be able to target him. The levels for your characters are good enough, your probably confused on how to beat him thats all, he isnt hard like Omega Weapon.
