I agree with that statement, yet I managed to make myself play through the game a few times to get all 12 endings. :eek: I stopped building up Gau in my FF6 file a long time ago, and haven't touched the game since.

i just got modded for illegal activities for telling someone that they would need to get their own copy of a cart and dump it themselves to play their own rom backup and not have much to worry about legally.  wtf?

That's so silly. I have my own set of assumptions:

1. Assumption 1: damage stops counting when it exceeds a target's remaining HP;

2. Assumption 2: no weapons or armor have been stolen from any enemies;

3. Assumption 3: magicite bonuses were never received before leveling up to level 11;

4. Assumption 4: half the level ups since level 11 have had no magicite bonuses applied;

5. Assumption 5: all acquired magicite bonuses were applied toward MagPwr;

6. Assumption 6: all characters have the same level, and that level never exceeds 35;

7. Assumption 7: killing an enemy in the fewest strikes is preferred to killing with the most overkill.

<sarcasm>
I wonder, under these more realistic assumptions, who would do the most damage?

5/31/16 - I have an assembly of the battle portion of C2, relocated to the F0 bank, which has both vanilla and patch code in my dropbox. I'll be updating it with additional patches as I have time. I will *not* be releasing it publicly, but ask me for the link and I'll share.

I like my assumptions better... where Cyan almost always get assraped by the Retainer.

Solo Cyan still loses the battle despite overkill.

so this is kinda funny.  the lead mod/admin conceded that i was right and then upheld the moderation because apparently i was still wrong even though i was right.

Can you tell I stopped caring about ebmid? :P

 :edit: Hold on, isn't Magic Power capped like Vigor, where anything > 128 = wasted effort?

No. From the algo guide:

Code: [Select]
    Damage = Spell Power * 4 + (Level * Magic Power * Spell Power / 32)
There's no overflow checks, so damage will wrap if it is high enough.

Oh well, I'd like to see my awesome question answered.

Because, you know Cyan is the Tempest God! (Even Gau as the Tempest God is more appealing than this).

 :edit:

Hey, I had a thought for an awesome ebmid response video! Have a solo Cyan fight a Retainer with maxed out stats and ebmid's orgasmic equipment set (and no magic). That would be the ultimate response.  :wtf: :omg:

And now we have a translation argument. Instead of just letting it die, Meeple decides he needs to post excessively. There's also a moddable post, and at the time of this post it hadn't yet been modded.

what about, it exactly?  since the topic creator listed "Rippler" as GBA-specific, Meeple expounded on the GBA-specific bug that affects Rippler (among other spells).  so it wasn't necessarily up to him to discuss the SNES Rippler bug, given the context of the original post.

or are you bothered by his claims of FF6 not being uniquely buggy, or of most of the bugs being benign?  i take issue with one of his comments (like i've done in the past, but more animatedly so last time), as you'll see in my response...
