Official FF6: Beyond Chaos thread (randomizer)

ahahahha!!    the invincible version!
Assuming you are able to cast Joker doom or R-Chaos he might even be defeated btw

I think Narshe's inventory changes at some point during the game. According to the wiki, it's after you acquire the Blackjack. I'd wager you were looking at the wrong list. You'll probably have legitimate access to those Green Cherries later in the game.

Oh, okay, So I just have to get Past Zozo to get the green Cherries needed to get past Zozo.
Wait a minute... "You created a time Paradox, Snake! You changed the future!"

Someone explain to me how this works? I need Green Cherries to deal with a certain enemy in Zozo, but I can't get it, because South Figaro was eaten by the Empire.

Also, how can I be looking at the wrong list.
It's the list in the guide for this randomizer.
Does it not properly display Narshe Items?
There's literally only one section for Narshe items.
And it is Narshe Weapons/armor/etc respectfully.

I mean, I could farm that one enemy that can drop them, but I need like 50, and to get 50 from that enemy, ergh, I'd be level 25 in the World of Balance probably, and that's before Zozo.

Ah, my mistake. I thought the text file differentiated between the two shop inventories, but it looks like it only does that for Figaro Castle.

Perhaps there's a "hole" in the text file that Abyssonym may theoretically fill in the future.

Fair enough.
Well, I'll take a break for a bit.
And then I'm come back to the game and probably farm those Ribb enemies that can drop a Green cherry.
I mean, being high leveled couldn't be that bad for Zozo.

Maybe I can try the infinite item usage in the menu command Game genie code.
I don't like cheating, but I'm not farming in one spot until the sun goes into it's red giant phase.
I mean, I don't want to be level 40 in the World of Balance.

Someday I will probably do that constant items won from fights game genie code in this Randomizer, see if it changes per seed.
It's a bit silly, but it helps in ROTDS.

So, update, Zozo is doing fine. Thanks ot the Infinite Items cheat.
I'll turn that off now though.
Ribbons give +2 speed and +10 MBlock, so that's nice.
Also, The AtmaWeapon on the Floating continent has a normal steal of another ribbon.
And another shows up in the Zone Eater's belly. Yay!

Man, Doom Gaze is going to be a pain this run.
I mean, I could start the fight by casting Condemned on him.
But I don't think he's going to sit around for the whole 60 seconds. Well, okay, I can put off nuking him until I get Ultima, but still.
Or not, since I have to kill all 8 dragons, since Crusader is the only one with Ultima. Ow.

Fun fact: he's not vulnerable to death. I'm almost certain he could let the timer tick to 0, and it would do absolutely nothing. The actual timer is a separate status, and you can inflict it with that, but it's useless.

Well, there's always the old fixed dice/Offering/Gauntlet combo.
Also, sorry for the whole game genie using, but I hate grinding on a rare enemy that doesn't want to show up. Especially for a rare drop.
If this game runs out of steam, there's always a new seed.

That's what I love about this randomizer, you know, you can start the game over and over again, and still have a ton of fun. So, no matter how much I complain about the randomizer, remember, I still love it.
I just need to remember it likes being random and trolly at the same time.

So, the only tiny flaw in the help from the infinite item usage, I accidentally gained 210 tents and 210 ribbons.
Don't worry I got rid of them.
And maybe 210 elixirs... Which I might keep.

I didn't think it would glitch out like that.

So, I've been watching Deranged Squirrel Fighter play Ancient Cave.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one who gets trolled by R-Esper.
"Here, have Crusader!"

So, apparently, Lv-1 reduces your main stats occasionally.
That's a nice counter balance.
Does anyone know the actual way it does it?
Because I've used it a bit before, and I've never noticed any stat decay.

Ok, also, Stamina is important to an extent.
It gives you a resistance to instant death/Petrification/etc.
Not that it does that much at like 20.

You'd need it at like 99 to have an effect.

For Level -1, if you gain a level, your level will decrease by 1, your HP an MP will increase like normal for that level, and your stats will drop by 2 randomly (Perhaps 1 Speed and 1 Stamina, or 2 Vigor, etc.) As for Stamina helping against instant death, I feel like it's more useful to boost other stats and just completely wall instant death with a Safety Bit or the like. I don't actually know the relevant formulas off hand, but I can't imagine Stamina does a whole lot, as you've said.

On another note, I am clearly a deep strategist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBPXT83ifHM

Yeah, I know Stamina isn't useful now.
And I never knew about the very mean drop of stats, but it makes sense to counter-balance it that way.
At least you can still build the character by adding +2 stat espers to it, to counter-balance the counter balance.

And as I do because I'm insane, I started a new seed again.
At least this time, the characters seem more balanced, the starting ones.
I get R-Rare and Throw on Recca, who looks like Gau, but replaces Locke.
