Relm - Sketch/Control Information/Analysis, Since Relm's skill set is based off the enemy she's fighting, I'm not going to bother saying much here. So whats the purpose of this besides novelty? 5 Reply [deleted] 2 yr. ago Don't even need to be 50's I'd say just teach everyone Ultima then start spaming. Tools can be sold, and re-obtained by the player later. Don't even need to be 50's I'd say just teach everyone Ultima then start spaming. Umaro is a decent Coliseum Candidate since you know exactly what he'll do, in essence. As a Reminder, Strago can STILL learn things if he is dead. Hell get him back in the WoR, though, so dont worry. The player can change whether they want two or three characters in the front or back row in the menu screen, and can temporarily force all party members to change rows in battle by selecting the Change, Swap, or Swap Rows command, which players can find by pressing on the control pad or control stick. Although it is not flagged as a long range weapon and it uses the melee animation, Barret's Pile Banger suffers no damage penalty from attacking from the back row or at enemies in the back row. Minor loss of defenses from Golden Armor is worth the boost to Vigor and Speed you get from it. The first is the obvious Dragon's Den distinction; Terra gets Apocalypse, Celes gets Save the Queen. The Row Command is available to all Characters, switching them from the back row to the front row and vice-versa. This makes Black Belt a better option than it might sound at first for him. This is most likely a bug. You could hand him Lightbringer and just keep him with that, but then, that weapon is hax. Does getting a undercut make other styles more difficult? The problem with Terra is the 9999 damage limit, and once you get to Ultima nuking, her magic advantage does not matter, and Trance does no more good. Most games have ranged weapons that inflict normal damage regardless of row: bows, throwing items like boomerangs and shuriken, and guns usually ignore row, along with other specialized weapons. Its his big unique thing, and what makes him goodbest make use of it. Character Toss is SUPPOSE to do extra damage when Mog is thrown, however, due to an oversight in programming, where the boost was done like any other Multiplier instead of a unique method, this is ignored as Character Toss ignores defense, so its meaningless. And why didnt they give us an indication of that?. Physical damage to one opponent. Characters start in the front row when they first become available. Speaking of which, for the Sealed Cave, Mog's best option is likely Water Harmony. ), Start teaching Relm offensive magic ASAP. It is only visible to you. A Gigas Glove or Hyper Wrist would be advisable too, given you start having enough of those to go around. Well, Shadow will leave in the middle of the Opera, which means you practically get no use out of him; and by middle I mean before Ultros shenanigans start.. Try to get as many Lores as you can ASAP. Catoblepas gives Biox8 for the fastest spell to learn, though the worst, it should be enough to last her. This is best for characters with low HP and Defense, like White Mages or Summoners. This changes it to an actual chainsaw, rather than the normal form which is more akin to a circular saw. Tools is Edgar's special ability in Final Fantasy VI that allows him to use various machines to create various effects. Physical damage to one opponent. You can actually rig slots so to speak. Also, around this time, stocking up on Sakuras, since this is the only part of the game those are available, and they're the best weapon Shadow can use for Wind Elemental Ammunition by far (and wind is a rarish element to boot). . Swords Fighting in the front row allows characters to deal regular damage to enemies, but in turn receive regular damage from enemies as well. Though, honestly, with that 255 Defense score, something tells me Mog won't care about physical evade much. Theres a way to rule out the rigging of slots entirely, such that you can get whatever you want so long as your timing is right. Its hard to evaluate ALL of them, though, I'll mention the "Throw Only" abilities, those being the Shurikens and the Scrolls. Shame, really. The Tools command may also be used by the optional character Gogo. For Magic, the game will stop registering anything past 127 and set the limit to 127. Falchions are another good thing to stock up on; they're considerably stronger than Fuma Shurikens, but much more expensive, so keep on eye on your Gil. All rights reserved.

So here's a list of monsters that That raises his chances of using actually good moves, and boosts protection against two elements. I know I said get Lores ASAP, but I feel this one deserves its own mention, since Grand Delta is well above other Lores in damage; only Aero comes anywhere near it (doesn't hit defense so has potential for higher damage and can hit a weakness to boot.) Most enemies have a set of four items that can be won from Metamorphose, with equal distribution. One last comment. It doesn't hurt to give Locke Ramuh right from the start, actually, to give him a head start in learning spells, hopefully learning Thundara somewhere in the factory.

Bows, boomerangs, and harps are ranged weapons and deal full damage from the back row.

Do not fall for this silly rumor. Though potentially there are three or more rows, all enemies bar those in the front row take equal damage as back row enemies. See, for some reason, Celes learns two spells (Haste and Confuse) at the same level, which isn't that weird, until you consider they're actually listed separate from one another, with Berserk being in between both (so the order would be Haste -> Berserk -> Confuse.) Fixed Dice, unlike other Defense Ignoring weapons and abilities, do NOT ignore Multipliers, oddly. Or you could use those Sakuras I told you to buy if you want, as they're slightly weaker, but MUCH cheaper than Darts.

Starting a battle as a back attack reverses the characters' row placement. Pity it cannot be given to someone with Rage anymore (both Gau AND Gogo can't use Merit Award), as Catscratch Fixed Dice use to be fun as well. Death Tarot and Venom Darts have some applications with instant death (especially Venom Darts since their instant death is compatible with the Master's Scroll), but its probably just easier to cast Death or Banish or something. There you go, if you don't think those odds are too bad, go nuts, kiddos. This guide overrates Terra in relation to Celes. Again, despite what it may seem, Gungnir is NOT a spear in terms of Jump. Best paired with someone with high Offense like Sabin or Gau w/ Stray Cat Rage. Basically, while random spell casting (such as Ice Brand's Blizzard) still works, because those bytes are differently, and thus are Addition Effects (damage dealt first, THEN the special effect kicks in), True Special Effects (often called Replacement Effects) are ignored. Zidane, Steiner, Freya, and Amarant can learn Long Reach, which allows them to deal normal damage from the back row with their normal attacks. Mind, you still have to know the timing, but hey, its nice, innit? This is probably the best reason to get him, as they are nasty objects you'll want, regardless. As a side note, trying a sequence before Sabin learns it WILL result in a failure; no trying Phantom Rush before the plot sequence or before Sabin is level 70. I have the impression that most characters don't really need to be in the front row to do their standard damage. Due to the nature of the early game, those early Sleeping Bags you get work well for refilling her MP mid dungeon. E.P. Unlike in most games, which allow players to pick and choose which row they want their characters in, Final Fantasy IV forces players to put two characters in the front row and three in the back row, or vice-versa. Note that Mog comes back with this anyway when he rejoins later, so you really are getting free stuff here (unlike Shadow's Ninja Gear which is mostly just equip transferring.). 2) You can place characters that are geared towards magic attacks or summons instead of regular attacks in the back row to take less damage.

Betting a Fuma Shuriken yields a Pinwheel, for beating up a fairly easy enemy in Chaos Dragon. Apparently "back attacks" are more common in this version, so it might just be more useful to keep 2 in the front & 2 in the back - since during a "back attack" who is in front & back gets reversed.
