doesn't gau only get abilities from eating monsters?
i haven't gotten very far in the game, but i kind of vaguely remember that.
Something like that, yeah. You've gotta go on safari at The Veldt, which has every monster you've encountered. Then you have to have Gau use a Leap ability on a monster there. Then you go for another random encounter with beef jerky to re-recruit him. When he rejoins, he'll have the ability set of the monster he leaped on available to him. His Rage ability lets him imitate any set of monster abilities he's chosen.
...and it's a tedious slog to get any of the ability sets, let alone good ones. Probably why I don't bother with the little Tomba wannabe. Or he would be a wannabe if FF6 didn't come out first. But yeah, getting Mog's dances isn't nearly as bad. Umaro just comes with his berserking out of the box, too.
