a summon.
Finding Ramuh ("Final Fantasy
5)
"Get the airship and fly to Easterly Falls, up in
the northwest corner of the map. Walk around in the forest until
you encounter Ramuh. Fight and defeat Ramuh to get him as a summon.
Skip Gilgamesh battle ("Final
Fantasy 5)
"At the end of World 2 when you are infiltrating
X-Death's castle, immediately before you reach X-Death's room
you will encounter a chest with nothing in it. When you leave
this room, Gilgamesh will attack you. However, if you do not open
the chest in this room, you will not have to fight Gilgamesh.
Defeating Gilgame ("Final Fantasy
5)
"First, make sure you have one chararcter that has
learned White Magic Lv5, another that knows Black Magic Lv5, a
third one with Time Magic/Jikuu Lv5, and the last one with Summon/Call
Lv3. You will need to use Cure3 and Golem most of the time to
protect yourselves. Start the battle with Haste2 and Float and
hit Gilgame with Ice3. Make sure to have all of these spells up
and running. Then, make everyone in your party change to Monk
to get a good amount of HP, then put everyone in the back row.
Gilgame is tough and evades easily; there is almost no need to
hit him with a weapon. Before you get to his lair (behind a door
in the cave linking the Big Bridge to the plains of Val), cast
Float on everyone. Then, start picking up Gil until Gilgame gets
you. Starty by casting Haste2 and Golem. Every time you hit Gilgame
with Ice3, this big turtle will counter twice with his Carapace
attack, causing Blind and Poison. However, Golem will take the
damage for you. Normally, Golem will take five hits from Gilgame
before you have to resummon him. Keep casting Ice3 and defending
yourselves with Cure3 and Antidote. You may also cast Blink to
avoid your opponent's attacks and make Golem last slightly longer.
Once Gilgame dies, he will destroy you with a Quake, which will
be fatal to all of you if you are not floating. Winning the battle
will award you 3 ABP and 5000 Gil. If you continue picking up
Gil in the cave after that, Gilgame might appear again.
Defeating Bahamut ("Final Fantasy
5)
"Either get four Wall Rings or have a Summoner that
can cast Carbuncle. Make Black or Time Mages and one Summoner
(if you do not have four Wall Rings equipped. Have the Mages cast
their strongest spells (Flare for Black Mages and Meteo for Time
Mages) while the fourth person heals the party. You can get the
Wall Rings from enemies in the Phoenix Tower. Bahamut's spells
will bounce back to him (putting the fight into you favor) when
you have Wall on the party. The instant kill spell he does at
the end will also be reflected back to Bahamut.
Defeating enemies ("Final Fantasy
5)
"The following is an easy way to defeat most enemies.
If you have a Sorcerer and any of the level 5 Black Magic spells
(Fire 3, Ice 3, etc.) you can instantly kill enemies that are
weak against that element. This also works on some Bosses.
Have one character master the character that holds two weapons
and the Hunter. Make him the bare class and give him two swords
and the Sshot ability. Equip two weapons then use the Sshot ability
in battle for an eight hit combination.
Extra ABP ("Final Fantasy 5)
"In Phoenix Tower, after every few stairs you will
reach a room with two pots, one on each side of the room. One
of the pots contain money, but the other contains a monster. The
enemy is called "Magic Pot" and will not attack you.
He will say "Gimme Elixer". Use an Elixer on him and
he will reward with 100 ABP and an item. This is possibly the
easiest way to master items like Mimes, Samurais, Chemists, and
Ninjas.
In The Void (the last area of the game), all of the monsters give
20+ ABP after a battle. To easily win Behemoth battles, first
cast Berserk on it. Next, cast Golem on your allies. You can now
use physical or magic attacks to defeat them. If Golem wears out,
simply recast it. Also in The Void is a monster called a "Mover".
They are very rare, but if you are lucky enough to encounter them
(they appear in sets of three), kill them all quickly with attacks
such as Bahamut or Leviathan. If you let them live too long, they
start to move around and eventually turn one of your party members
into stone. When this happens, the battle automatically ends and
you get nothing. The reward for defeating the Movers is 199 ABP
and 100,000 gil.
Easy experience ("Final Fantasy
5)
"In the first world, once you get the airship go
to the chain of islands at the bottom of the map. The ones above
crescent island have an enemy called Black Flame which has the
Blue spell Black Shock, and gives high experience, gold and ABP
when defeated. Also, some of the islands have a monster called
Prototype which you cannot hurt to defeat. Use the Control command
and have it cast Exploder on itself You can also learn the Blue
spells Missile and Burn Ray from it. It also gives 500 experience
and 4 ABP when defeated.
The Quar Harpy gives 250 experience to everyone if four are alive,
333 experience if three are alive, 500 experience to two or 1000
experience to one person. This can help early on in the game,
if you are strong enough.
In the second world, after X-Death turns on his barrier, you will
get sent to another part of the world map. There are two places
that actually show up on the map when you use it -- a town and
a castle. Villagers in the town warn you about the castle, and
they also mention that the legendary weapons are all sealed there.
If you investigate, you will find absolutely nothing to do, and
a very difficult (in fact, impossible at your level) monster called
a ShieldDragon. The dragon is technically invincible to you. He
has Reflect, and you do not. He can kill you in a few blows, and
you (most likely) cannot seriously hurt him. However, if you have
someone become a trainer long enough to learn Control, then you
have a chance. Simply have everyone defend or heal while one of
the party tries to Control until they are successful. Once you
are controlling him, you can attack him with Blaze for 4999 damage.
Being a magical attack in nature, Blaze will not break the Control.
Repeat this until he is defeated. By defeating it, you will get
1000 gil, 2500 experience per character (10,000 experience total),
and 5 ABP. To add insult to injury, you can steal a Mythril Shield
from him every time (and occasionally a Gold Shield), and sometimes
you will win a Gold Shield from the fight.
Easy gil ("Final Fantasy 5)
"Go to the Valley Of Dragons in Galuf's World (World
2). Go in a cave and find a Zombie Dragon. Kill it. This may be
difficult, considering it has about 8,000 HP. After the battle,
it should give you about 1000 to 1500 gil, 500 to 1000 experience,
and 2 to 7 ABP. A subscreen will appear. Take the Dragon Fang
or Dragon Tooth, and kill some more Zombie Dragons. Each Dragon
Fang or Dragon Tooth is worth 2500 gil. Also in the Valley Of
The Dragons is a Bone Mail that resembles a ribcage. It has good
defense, and can be used by Samurai, Knights, Sorcerers, Lancers,
and most other fighting classes.
No battles in Phoenix Tower ("Final
Fantasy 5)
"Use the following door order: left, left, right,
left, left, right, left, left, right, left, left, right, right,
left, right, left, left, right, and up.
Get Cain/Kain ("Final Fantasy
5)
"At the beginning of the game give the name -Cain-
or -Kain- to the main character. Then, as soon as possible, turn
him into a Dragon Knight and master him. You can also teach him
the Summon command.
Hydra Summon ("Final Fantasy
5)
"In World 3, use the airship to return to the pirate's
base in the middle of the mountains. As you enter, Faris will
appear and run to the right side of the base. He sees an illusion
of Hydra. You will then get to summon Hydra, who uses the very
useful attack, Thunder.
Hint Golem Summon ("Final Fantasy
5)
"In the Valley of Dragons, get into a few random
battles until the monsters you fight are a Skelesaurus, Dragon
Zombie and Golem. The other monsters will turn on Golem and ask
for help. If you kill the two monsters before they kill Golem,
Golem will praise you and join your party as a summon. You have
to use the Golem item in order for him to join (just like Ramuh).
Shoat Summon ("Final Fantasy
5)
"In World 2 with the submarine you will find a tunnel
underwater at the bottom part of the northwestern-most continent.
Go through the tunnel and get into a fight. Shoat is difficult
to defeat. His only attack does not miss and turns your characters
into stone. The tunnel (outside in the water) is a yellow circle
in the rock wall. The tunnel is also a good place to level up.
Mirage Town ("Final Fantasy
5)
"Get the airship and fly to Cresent Island. Head
to the middle of the joined continent, and land next to a forest
there. Walk around in the forest until it seems you have gotten
into a battle. The screen will be fuzzy instead of the normal
swirl for starting a battle. This town has extremely good weapons,
6 level six magic spells, and great armor. There are two shops
in every store, so search around the town.
Black Chocobo in World 3 ("Final
Fantasy 5)
"Fly to Mirage Town and stand near the pub. If you
go around through a back door, you will appear behind the counter
of the pub. Check the barrels below you to get a useful weapon,
the Thief's Knife. Head left to find some stairs, and continue
through the area. Put on the "Secret" ability or make
one of your characters a thief. Head through a secret passage
to find a door, and past that, a piano. Play the Piano and head
through the door to find the Black Chocobo.
Bone Mail ("Final Fantasy 5)
"The Bone Mail is in the Dragon Valley in Galuf's
world. In the first area where you start to see bones, you will
pass the ribs. The Bone Mail is in a small pile of bones just
before you turn the corner on the cliff's edge. This armor is
for Knights, Samurais, Sorcerers, etc. This armor will serve well
until the end of the game.
Dancing Dirk ("Final Fantasy
5)
"In world 2 at the Moogle village, inside one of
the houses is the Dancing Dirk. It is the strongest one handed
weapon at this point. When attacking it has one of the following
bonuses:
Sword Dance: 4x normal damage.
Jitterbug, Wonderwaltz: Absorbs enemy's life.
Normal hit: Normal hit.
Tempetango: Makes one enemy attack other monsters
Chicken Knife or Brave Sword ("Final
Fantasy 5)
"Go to the town of Moore in World 3. Head southwest
to find a barn-like location. Enter it to find yourself in the
forest below. Wander around until you find a wizard who will tell
to pick from two crates. Pick the right one for the Chicken Knife,
or the left one for the Brave Sword. The Chicken Knife can be
easily powered-up, up so it is even more powerful than the Excalibur.
The Brave Sword powers up when you win battles, the Chicken Knife
powers up when you run.
Double Lance ("Final Fantasy
5)
"Once you get to Val castle in the second world,
you will notice there is a basement in one of the lower levels
that has a locked door. Down in this small basement room, you
encounter monsters called Rock Statues. You can steal the Double
Lance from these enemies, but it may take awhile. You will mostly
get potions, but have patience. The Double Lance allows the user
to attack twice. Try stealing two and equip them to a Ninja for
a 4x attack. The rock statues are very difficult to defeat, but
a Soft will kill them instantly.
Healing Staff ("Final Fantasy
5)
"Once you have the dragon, fly to Tycoon Castle
and talk to the Chancellor. Then, go to the treasure room on the
east side of the castle and talk to the Chancellor again to enter.
Once there, you can find the very useful Healing Staff, which
restores HP rather than taking it away. It is magic though --
do not use it on someone with Reflect.
Magic Lamp ("Final Fantasy 5)
"You can get an item called the Magic Lamp. Use
it in a battle 6to summon Bahamut. It can be recharged in the
water at the dwarf village under the sea. Jump on the Yellow Chocobo

"When you go to Mirage Town (World 3), talk to the
man who bets you cannot go around the world on a yellow Chocobo.
Exit the town and hop on Boko. Travel around the world in a counter-clockwise
direction, all the way to Mirage Town. It usually helps if you
go around the world two consecutive times. Talk to the man, and
he will give you the Mirage Vest. The Mirage Vest has pretty high
defense, and when equipped, automatically casts Blink on the wearer
in battle.
Sealed Weapons ("Final Fantasy
5)
"To get all of the weapons, place the Lithograph
on the sparkling platform. You will now be able to break the seal
on three of the weapons. Pick up the Lithograph, put it down again,
and break three more seals. Repeat this until all the weapons
are collected.
Magic Summoning Lamp ("Final
Fantasy 5)
"In World 3, take Boko northeast then west until
you reach the top of Easterly Falls. Walk into the waterfall and
press [X] to get the Magic Lamp. It will summon in this order:
Bahamut, Leviathan, Odin, Hydra, Carbuncle, Golem, Titan, Ifrit,

to refill it.
Elixir ("Final Fantasy 5)
"You can steal an Elixir from the Zuu outside the
castle with the Fire Crystal. This can give you an early advantage
in the game.
Mime crystal shard ("Final Fantasy
5)
"Go into the water in the third world, below the
Phoenix Tower. Transform the boat into the submarine and go into
the tower. Since it is under water, you will only have seven minutes
to get to the bottom and return. Equip Dash and run to the bottom.
Once there, you will see the crystal shard. A monster will warn
you, but answer "No". He will mimic you. To win, do
nothing as he says.
Blood combo ("Final Fantasy
5)
"Have a Hunter that is mastered (level 4). The ability
learned is called Sshot meaning Super Shot. This ability will
make your attack (Fight!) happen four times in a row; and if the
first attack is critical, the other three will also be critical.
This move cannot miss. Once you have Sshot, change your job to
Bare or Mime and equip the Blood Sword found at X-Death's Tower
in World 2. Equip the Blood Sword to the Bare or Mime character
and give him/her the ability Sshot with the equipped weapon Blood
Sword (84 Batt. Pwr., +5 to Vigor, steals the amount of damage
that you deal, but with 5% Accuracy). The combo with Sshot (which
never misses) will even this out against an average enemy. This
can result in 3,200 damage against enemies and 3,200 HP to your
character.
Berserker ("Final Fantasy 5)
"First, have a character with a mastered Ninja (level
5) and a mastered Monk (level 7). Make that character a Mime and
give him the abilities learned from these two classes: 2-Swords
(Ninja level 5), HP +30% (Monk level 7), and Counter (Monk level
4). The only thing that you have to do is cast Berserk on this
Mime during a battle. With the 2-Swords ability, you could give
him a Ragnarok (Batt. Pwr. 137) and a Strato (Batt. Pwr. 117).
The HP +30% will give him a great amount of HP and the Counter
ability will automatically attack an enemy if it attacks the Mime.
Control opening screen ("Final
Fantasy 5)
"At the opening screen with the new game, memory
card, or memo options, you will see a character at the bottom
of the screen. To see the character take a hit, just choose an
unusable option such as an empty card slot or a card with no save.

him.
Another technique is to cast Vanish and Doom.
To kill Atma, quickly buy Fire Skeens before you go to the floating

anywhere from 4,100 to 4,600 damage.
Defeating Wrexsoul ("Final Fantasy
6)
"Take Gogo, a character that has the X-Zone spell,
and a character with the Vanish spell. Make sure Gogo has the
Magic skill equipped, and not Runic (it is useless in this battle).
Cast Vanish on the two creatures, and then use X-Zone. They will
die and you will win the battle. Your rewards are the Aura, Cyan,
and the Alexander Esper. It is useful in battle against creatures
such as Doomgaze, which is weak against Pearl.

[Forward].
Defeating Katana Soul ("Final
Fantasy 6)

only offering.

hard Boss, is easily destroyed.
Defeating the Magi Tower Boss ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"After defeating the Atma Weapon the first time,
cast Life 3 on everyone, have them all holding a Wall Ring as
one of their relics (helps through the entire level), and have
someone Berserk the Boss. After that he will only use regular
attacks and will not change his weakness. Once defeated, he will
use Ultima, the most powerful magic attack in the entire game,
and it will most likely kill you.
Defeating almost every Boss ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"To kill almost every Boss in the game, cast Vanish
then Doom to kill it. The Vanish makes the Boss always get hit
by magic spells.
Defeating the undead ("Final

Do not cast Doom, as this will not kill the undead.
Easy experience ("Final Fantasy

"Get an Exp. Egg and fight some Tyranos in the forests
above the veldt at the World Of Ruin. Use Vanish, Doom or Vanish,
X-Zone in the battle.
Note: The following trick requires a controller with an auto-fire
feature, a PlayStation that can be left on for an extended amount
of time, and tape. In the World of Balance, go to the Lete River.
Get on the raft outside of the Returner's hideout. Go to the menu
at the first save point. Select "Config", then "Cmd.
Set". Select "Short" and press [X]. Place
Banon's health spell at the top instead of fight, then save the
game. On the river, go up at the first intersection. Turn on the
turbo for [X] (or the entire controller). Tape [X] down,
so it will always be active. The characters will fight and heal
automatically. Leave the game in this condition overnight. This
should result in an increase in HP and MP. Disable the turbo,
and go the other way. You will find a save point where you can
check your levels, Sabin's blitz techniques, and Terra's magic.
Save the game if needed. Also, if you want to do this again, as
soon as you check your characters disable the turbo and have them
kill each other. You will lose all the GP and items you have gained,
but your character's levels will be the same. You will be at the
first save point, allowing you to repeat the trick as needed.
Note: The following trick requires a controller with an auto-fire
feature. Get to the part of the game where you see Baron and you
have to get on a raft. Go to the save point where you can get
off the raft to switch Baron's attack command with his heal command.
Next, get to a part where you can go left (or up), and go in an
endless circle. Set auto-fire to [X] and keep it depressed
for a very long time. You will have your party attack and get
healed by Baron.
Go to the green area around Doma Castle. You will find find Sprintors,
Spektors And Tummble Weads there. Always use your most powerful
fire attacks for easy defeats. As soon as your characters get
powerful enough, you should put only one person in your party
and fight around that area to get a lot of experience.
Quick MP ("Final Fantasy 6)
"In the World Of Balance, go to the triangular island
in the very top right corner. Keep walking around until encountering
the invisible monster called Intangir. Simply chant death on it
to gain 10 MP.
In the World Of Balance, encounter Intangir as described previously.
Instead of casting Doom, have Gau in your party and keep him with
you always. When facing Intangir choose the "Rage" Rhodox
and wait. The only two commands he uses are Fight and Snare. Snare
will eliminate the monster, and it will not be able to counter
with the extremely powerful Meteo.
In the World Of Ruin, go to the desert south west of Maranda.
There a creature called Cactros that has 3 HP, but is hard to
hit and is immune to almost all magic. Use Cyan's Dispatch, Edgar's
Drill, or Sabin's Bum Rush to defeat it.
Give Gogo any commands ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"Go to Gogo's status screen. Look at his commands.
You will see Mimic and three empty slots below it. Choose one
of the empty slots and a list of all of the commands from the
other characters you have will appear. Choose the one you want,
then do the same with the other two slots. For example, you can
have Mimic, Blitz, Tools, and Swordtech all at the same time,
if desired.
More damage with Locke ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"Equip Locke with Offering and Genji Glove. Then,
give him the Atma weapon Valiant Knife. Although this is best

Remove bad after-battle status effects
by using Relics ("Final Fantasy 6)
"If a character is inflicted with an after-battle
status effects such as Poison, go to that character's Relic sub-menu
and choose a Relic that prevents the status effect that is afflicted.
Press [X] then go back to the menu screen. The status effect
that the Relic you equipped to the character should stop any of
the status effects it can stop. Return to the Relic screen. Remove
the Relic used to remove the status effect and equip the original
Relic(s) you had for that character. For example, If Edgar has
Poison and Darkness, go to the relic Screen and get a Relic that
can either stop Poison and/or Darkness (for example, the Star
Pendant). Go back to menu screen, then give him Goggles or another
Relic that stops Darkness. Next, go to the Relic screen, remove
those two relics, and give him the original ones.
Limit Breaks (Final Fantasy 6)
To do a Limit Break with any character, you need to
be at low HP and do a critical hit. This does not work with the
Genji Glove or Offering equipped.
Stronger Umaro ("Final Fantasy
6)
"Note: A lot of money is required for this trick.
Buy 99 Green Cherries. During a battle in the World Of Ruin, have
Umaro in your party. Use some Green Cherries on Umaro and he will
become stronger without having to level up.
Getting the Paladin Shield ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"Equip the Cursed Shield and a Ribbon (so the effects
of the Cursed Shield are negated). Fight 255 battles to transform
the Cursed Shield into the Paladin Shield.
The easiest way to turn the Cursed Shield to the Paladin Shield
is as follows. Go the Solitary island, where you started in the
World of Ruin. Equip the Cursed Shield, and the Ribbon to negate
the effects of it. Stay out of the desert and just fight Peepers.
If desired, you do not have to do anything. They have 1 HP and
0 MP, and kill themselves after about five to ten seconds. If
you bring Locke with you, he will be able to steal every couple
of battles before the Peepers kill themselves. Every few times,
if the Sneak Ring and Thief Glove Are equipped, he will steal
an elixir. Also, make sure you have Espers equipped. While you
only get 1 MP for winning, you do have to fight 255 battles to
change the shield, so many party members can learn new spells.
Make sure you pick up Palidor from the beach by the house on the
island.
Once you have obtained the Paladin Shield, have a fast party member
equip it along with the Ribbon Relic. Also equip the Dragoon Boots
on that character. The countdown until death will be stopped for
a period of time. After 255 or 225 battles, the Cursed shield
should transform into the Paladin shield. Try battling at the
forest north of the Veldt to level up and upgrade your shield.
Getting the Chain Saw ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"In Zozo, when you find the clock on the top right
side of the town, put in the following times. First hand 6:00,

World), Offering (In World Of Ruin, Odin's Castle), and approximately
7,000 HP. The Atma Weapon powers up by your HP. With high HP you

With the Offering, you will do this four times (39,996 damage)
in just one turn.
Another Atma Weapon ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"I is possible to get another Atma Weapon during
the final set of battles. When battling the warrior with a woman's

in the World Of Ruin. Go near the Narshe, and search for five
trees forming a plus sign like this:
<PRE>

sensei (who he thought was dead). The teacher will teach Sabin
the Bum Rush, an extremely strong, single person attack.
Random hat replacement ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"Un-equip the hat of the character you like the
most. Sell all other hats you have. Then, go to the hatless character's
equipment screen and select "Optimum". Sometimes a random
item (usually a Genji Glove) will be equipped as a hat, and boosts
defense up to 255.
Stealing a Gengi Glove ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"On the floating continent in the World Of Balance,
you can steal a Genji Glove from the Dragon. Bring Locke along
and equip him with either a Genji Glove and the Thieve's Glove
(or the Steal Ring and the Thieve's Glove). The dragon also carries
a potion.
Second Memento Ring "(Final
Fantasy 6)
"You can get a second Memento Ring by searching
the left side of the upper story of Strago's house. Go to the
left side wall and go down until you run into the chair. Turn
left and press [X] and you will receive a second Memento
ring which only Relm and Shadow can use.
Merit Award "(Final Fantasy
6)
"To get a Merit Award, which allows a character
to wear heavy armor, fight an enemy called Hoover which uses Sand
attacks which cause heavy damage. Equip a Thunder Shield to absorb
this effect and use a Blizzard sword to do heavy damage to the
monster.
Economizer relic "(Final Fantasy
6)
"This relic turns all MP used on any magic move
to only 1 MP. You can only get it the second world, after Kefka
blows up the world, above the Veldt (the place where you teach
Gau new moves). It is a small forest patch on the island just
north of the Vedlt Island. You will be close when Tyranos start
attacking. Keep fighting them and every once and a while a monster
called a Bracosaur will attack. Have Locke steal from it. If that
was unsuccessful, kill it and hope that it appears after the battle.
Make sure Lock is level 35 or higher. Equip him with an Off Ring,
the Theif Knife, and your best armor. The Marvel Shoes also help.
Save the game and bet the Strato at the Colosseum. You will fight
an Aquila. Locke will attempt to steal about 50% of the time.
When he is successful and if you are lucky, you will get an Economizer.
If you get a Phoenix Down, use the in-game reset, reload, and
try again. Once he is successful and you win the fight, you will
get a Pearl Lance. Bet that in the Coliseum, and you will win
another Strato. You can repeat this as many times as desired.
Elixir ("Final Fantasy 6)
"Go any town and check out the houses. Many houses
have a grandfather clock. Walk up to the clock and press [X].
You will most likely receive an elixir. Note: This only works
once per clock.
Get the Genji Glove early ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"When Bannon asks you to join the Returners, say
"No" three times. One of the people inside will give
you the Genji Glove.
White Cape ("Final Fantasy 6)
"You can get a White Cape from the Returners Hideout
early in the game. There is a hidden passage in the north room.
Getting Raiden ("Final Fantasy
6)
"To get Raiden you need Odin. Go in Edger's castle
in the World Of Ruin and go underground. When the game states
that you hit something, go and check. In the jail there will be
an open door. Go through it and you enter a cave. After the cave
you will get into the Ancient Castle. Enter the throne room, go
to the right side of the throne, walk five steps down, and press
[X]. When you do this go into the right room, and a new room
will be there. Note: If you do this you wll lose Odin and gain
Raiden.
Getting Gogo ("Final Fantasy
6)
"In the World Of Ruin, go to the northeast triangle
island. Bring strong characters. There you will meet a monster
named Zoneeater. It uses Demi, but also uses an attack called
"Engulf" that sucks a character into him. Allow him
to use "Engulf" on all of your characters. The game
will not end. Instead, you will end up in a cave. This cave has
strong monsters and great treasures, such as the Genji Armor.
Jump across the bridges and avoid the walking people to eventually
reach the end. Walk through the door and you will see a covered-up
person. Talk to him and he will join your party.
Getting Yeti ("Final Fantasy
6)
"Go to Narshe in the World Of Ruin. Have Mog in
your party. Then, go to the mountain where you first got Mog.
You will see the frozen Esper from the start of the game. Use
Fire attacks on him and defeat him. This is the esper Tritoch
that teaches Fire 3, Ice 3, and Bolt 3. Then, go to where the
Esper was located and slide down. You will be in a cave. Most
of the chests are trapped, and only have a secret path to them
-- do not touch them. At the end of the cave, go to the skull
statue, and take the Esper. Yeti will attack you. Defeat him,
and if you have Mog in your party, he will join.
Getting the Soul Saber ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"To obtain this sword, in the World Of Ruin go to
Firgao and into the dungeon where Edgar rejoins your party. Go
into the room were all the thieves entered. At the center is a
statue of armor. Approach to it and press [X] to get the
Soul Saber. This is a great sword, as it deals damage by how much
MP you used. It also refills you MP.
Getting Odin Esper ("Final Fantasy
6)
"Use the following trick to get the Odin Esper quickly,
without getting into battles. After receiving the Airship in the
World Of Ruins, go to Narshe. Go to where the Moogle Village is
located. Talk to Mog and he will join the party. In the location
where you found Mog, search the wall to retrieve the Moogle Charm
(when equipped on Mog, you will fight no random encounters). Go
to Figaro Castle and talk to the engineer to head back to the
desert. When the castle is moving, you will suddenly stop and
the engineer will mention something. Go to the prison cell with
the door and go through. Have Mog in the party with the relic
Moogle Charm equipped. Follow the path until you reach the Ancient
Castle. Go to the throne room and search the statue to retrieve
the Odin Esper. You will never encounter an enemy unless you open
two chests that contain monsters. If this happens, just cast Vanish
then Doom to dispose of them. This is an easy way to get Odin
and learn the rare spell Meteor.
Getting Ragnorak Esper ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"After you save Locke in the World Of Imbalance
and the scene with Rachele (Locke's girlfriend), go to Narshe.
Open the weapons shop and go in the door on the right. The man
will ask if you want the sword. Take the Esper. The sword teaches
you Flare, but you can learn it elsewhere while the Esper teaches
you Ultima, the best spell in the game.
More Espers ("Final Fantasy
6)
"Go to Albrook in the World of Balance. Immediately
before going to the floating continent, you will meet a man that
says someone tried to sell a glowing rock, and that he went to
Tzen. Go to Tzen and look behind the trees in the top right-hand
corner of the town. You can buy the Sraphim Esper for 3000 GP.
Also at this time, if you go to Jidoor you can buy the Golem and
ZoneSeek Espers for 20,000 GP at the auction house, but it may
take a while because some other things are sold there as well,
such as Cure Rings, Cherub Downs and talking Chocobos (which you
cannot actually buy).
Easy Catrot battles ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"You will find a creature called the Cactrot in
the desert southwest of Maranda. It only has 3 HP, an extremely
high Evade. Equip your characters with a Sniper Sight and a Genji
Glove to take off 2 HP every time it is attacked. This can also
be helpful when you face a Catrot in the coliseum.
Equip the Sniper Sight and the Atma Weapon (which should be found
before you even get to World of Ruin). This will kill Cactrot
with one hit.
When trying to kill the Catrot, use Edgar's tool command, then
use the Drill.
Cast Ultima five times for 1 MP ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"Equip the Economizer and Gem Box relics to allow
you attack two times for 2 MP. Make sure you know the magic Quicke,
then enter a battle. Cast Quicke followed by Ultima, then just
Ultima four more times.
Throw anything twice ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"The following trick allows you to throw anything
twice, even if you only have one of the item. Have Gogo mimic
Shadow to throw the same item twice. Note. If you throw an item
that you have more than one of, Gogo will use his own and you
will lose two items instead of one.
Get through tough levels without
avoiding battles ("Final Fantasy 6)
"If you are fighting foes who primarily do not use
magic, cast Vanish on all your party members. Afterwards, most
battles can be fought without taking damage. Occasionally, you
will have to recast Vanish when magic is actually used. This works
very well if you battle Bosses, such as Umaro, who do not use
magic, and you are tired of using the Vanish/Doom trick.
Good Coliseum techniques (Final Fantasy 6)
Get the Marvel Shoes
Bet the Flame Sabre to get something (face a "hard"
Ninja). Bet that item to get the Rename Card (face Cactrot). Bet
the Rename Card to get the Marvel Shoes (face DoomDragon)
Cactrot battle
It helps if your other relic are the Marvel Shoes. If you
do not have them, get the Cure Ring, as he has a 1,000 point attack.
Most other battles after getting the Marvel Shoes
Equip the Marvel Shoes and Dragoon Boots. It also helps if
you have made it to at least level 35, and have either the Genji
or Aegis shield, plus the Force Armor. Do not use the Atma Weapon
here. It also helps if you know some spells, such as Stop.
The Doom Dragon
Equip the same relics and armor as above, also equip the Flame
shield. The dragon know S.Cross, a powerful "fire" spell
-- this will absorb it. If you have good magic defense, his N.Cross
"ice" spell will rarely, if ever hit. With the Dragon
Boots you can be in the air and gain some life back with the Marvel
Shoes. He does use Fallen One, which takes your HP down to 1,
but rarely attacks so you can gain life back. It helps if you
are at a higher level so you can evade his rare non-magic attacks.
Rename Card
Another way to get the rename card in the coliseum, which
you need to get the marvel shoes, is to bet an Elixir. Then you
can fight and should easily beat Cactrot.
Good setup for either Terra or Celes
in WOR ("Final Fantasy 6)
"The following is a good setup for either Terra
or Celes in WOR, , but before gaining the Marvel Shoes. Equip
the relic that allows you to hold two weapons. 2. Equip Drainer
with the right hand, and Atma Weapon with the left. This allows
you to gain HP first, which makes the Atma weapon more powerful
immediately on the same attack. The Mystery Veil, Force Armor
is good for armor, and Running Shoes and another relic is also
good (Cure Ring is not necessary). After gaining the Marvel Shoes,
equip the Soul Sabre, which you also win in the Coliseum instead.
With the Marvel Shoes and good armor, you should be near the maximum
HP most of the time, and will instead need to gain MP back.
Level up strategy ("Final Fantasy
6)
"When leveling, make sure you have the right Esper
you want equipped to give you bonus leveling points. Once you
gain Bahamut, make sure the person with the Atma Weapon is using
it to gain HP +50%,. This will make the Atma Weapon even more
powerful.
Get Cyan in World Of Ruin ("Final
Fantasy 6)
"Go to the town of Zozo. Talk to the only man that
is walking around (not jumping from building to building or laying
down). He will give you an item. Then, go to the top of the building
with the door that is rusted shut and use the item that the man
gave you. It will open the rusted door, which leads to Mt. Zozo.
There, you will get in a lot of fights and eventually meet up
with Cyan.
Oprah words (Final Fantasy 6)
Oh my hero
I'm the darkness
Must I
Coliseum items in World Of Ruin (Final Fantasy 6)
Trade a Behemoth suit and get a Snow suit. It works well with
Mog.
Trade a Rising sun or a Sniper and get a Bone club. Trade the
Bone Club and get a Red Jacket.
Trade a Chocobo suit and get a Moogle suit. Trade the Moogle suit
and get a Nutkin suit. Trade that and get Genji Armor.
Trade Coronet and get a Regal Crown. Trade that and a get Genji
helmet.
Trade an Imp Halberd and keep trading everything you get till
u get an EXP egg.
Glitch: Psycho Cyan (Final Fantasy 6)
At the start of battle, have Cyan perform the "Retort"
SwordTech (or SwdTech 2), then have another party member cast
the "Imp" spell on him. Next, kill Cyan by attacking
him with a physical attack in one blow or several magic attacks.
This is to not trigger Retort and cancel the process. After he
is wounded, revive him with a Life spell or Fenix Down. After
any character/enemy attacks, Cyan should automatically and continuously
attack all enemies uninterrupted until they are all dead. Use
this process to instantly defeat Bosses and tough enemies, including
Kefka.
Glitch: Misspelling ("Final Fantasy
6)
"Before battle, equip someone with the Esper Fenrir.
Then while in battle, go to the person with Fenrir, select "Magic",
and press [Up]. The game will have "Fenris" printed
instead of "Fenrir".
