FF6 Beyond Chaos playthrough

[abyssonym]

Oho, I see. That's almost too clever. I'd known about the damage bonus from pincer attacks, and also that you could make enemies turn around with the "step forward" glitch... but I never put them together.

• In case you're wondering about Ranma's (Umaro's) spell list, he can't learn magic because there's no space in memory where it is stored. So in Beyond Chaos, Umaro will never have a Magic command. What you see in the Esper menu is data from your config settings... if you actually set all of your menu colors to pure white, Umaro will learn 50% of all spells.
• Lots of dangerous enemies around the Ancient Castle... thrown weapons, zombie...
• ...and you weren't kidding about those bees! That was a very sudden death.
• Although it seems like x-zone is enough to keep them at bay.
  
• What a ridiculous Odin: poison and antidote. This time, at least, the decision to upgrade to Raiden isn't a difficult one.
• The GivLireno enemies outside of Doma Castle do impressive damage with Goner, but Ranma's got it covered with her perfect magic defense. Perhaps this could be considered a preview of the final battle.
• There's always one enemy in Cyan's dream that has glitched graphics, I never got around to looking at it because it's strangely thematically appropriate...
• I like the enemy that desperately uses Big Guard when it's the last one remaining.
• All that fuss over an empty chest...
• The Magitek graphics glitch is something I overlooked... I made sure the formations at the beginning of the game are Magitek-compatible, but I completely forgot about this sequence.
• It's weird that Poplin's commands weren't erased during this part. Is it like that in vanilla too? Well, at least that means you can steal freely.
• Defeating WrexSoul the legit way...? Oh, so you can steal from him.
