Godamn you, Wiegraf...
I know what you mean. Queklian it happened to me, then i kept the last 3 or so saves, so it wouldn't happen again.

I remember it took me forever to do like the second battle against Mages because I just didn't get the whole planning magic, and when the turns executed. I over look things sometimes when I don't read instructions or help menus. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Has anyone ever reached the bottom of Hell Gate where you fight Blacmore the Lich in Tactics Ogre?


That is so hard because he's at level 50 and the enemies are at the level of your highest character...

It depends on your preparation. You should have a pretty easy time with it if you go in with some Angel Knights and Mute. Mute will stun most of Blacmore's minions, and the Angel Knights can keep his MP drained with Calm Song. My battle with him for the Fireseal was easier than the subsequent battles because for the former, I had a retissued Terror Knight and a retissued Angel Knight.

Guess I'm no one, then. I beat Wiegraf without any outside help. A lot of people lose that fight because they ignore mages. I had enough JP in caster classes for Ramza that he could learn Haste, and that's what allowed me to win the fight, eventually.

By the way, what's the point of saying that Penance has 1,200,000 hp?
The battle is actually very easy when you know what you're doing. Alot of people happen not to at that point, though.

And that's a lot of HP. Whether 12 000 000 or 1 200 000.

Total slaughter, total slaughter. I won\'t leave a single man alive. La de da de die, genocide. La de da de dud, an ocean of blood. Let\'s begin the killing time.

"Knowing what you are doing," actually better written as planning ahead because you read about that fight in a guide or fought him before, is one of the following:

1. MP switch and move MP up
2. Yell, Move +2, and Germinas Boots

Having 1 Time Mage spell isn't preparing ahead for that battle. It's good emergency customization.

The Master has a lot of HP. He has 99 of them.

Same happened here.

My friend gave up on FFT because he can't get past Velius and doesn't want to restart it.
