Beyond Chaos EX: Final Fantasy 6 Randomizer

by Admiral Joeslop

Part 15: The Part Where Everyone Dies





Hello again friends! Today we're going to get what's coming to us.



This loot that is inexplicably still unlocked!

Total Collection:
Man Eater
6900 GP
Cure Ring x2
Blossom
Super Ball
Amulet
Elixir
RunningShoes
Crystal Shld
Magicite
Imp's Armor




Of the things that are new, the Cure Ring is kind of OK, the RunningShoes are useless, Imp Armor is also useless, and the Crystal Shield is pretty nice. The Super Ball is weird; it targets all enemies with random damage.

code:
The amount of damage is random, dealing a random multiple of 256 damage up to a total of 8192 damage.

The formula is as follows:

256×Random[1...32]
I don't think I've ever used one.




I go to the Veldt to pick up some Lores from Rages I know. See if you can guess which one is the best. A hint: it restores HP to the party equal to the caster's current HP.



I like the Auction House, it's just a shame how limited it is.



Two peas in a pod here. Zoneseek gives everyone Shell, Golem absorbs physical attack damage up to the caster's max HP. It covers the entire party but only up to that total.



Zoneseek is currently unequipable which is a shame as +2 Speed and Ice 3 sound delicious. Golem only has Rasp as a decent use and only Taiga can even equip it.



Garbage.



Fucking new money.



This guy sells you Sraphim for a lot of money. If you wait until the World of Ruin it only costs 10 GP. I bought it anyway. Life 2 is a big help and Osmose will do in a pinch, as it drains MP and gives it to the caster.



I went and checked out Triangle Island, where Intangr usually hangs.

Love Token is something to be very concerned with, since Taiga likes to go on physical attack murder sprees. Lucky for me, Air Force never cast it.



Instead, I introduce it to overwhelming electricity.



This is basically the worst thing that happens.



The armaments go down quickly.

The Speck exists solely to Runic spells while Air Force counts down. Once it reaches 0 it uses Wave Cannon. I don't think I've ever seen it.




Mostly because it doesn't have a lot of HP.

Oh. "HP: 63836" OH.



So that never happened. I'm sure this fight will be easier.



What in the actual fuck.



Doesn't even get a boss dissolve this time.



Terrible. Just awful.



Here we go. The final hurdle in a WoB run. The bane of many a permadeath run.

LET'S FUCKIN' GO



If you watch the video, you may notice I left Taiga on a completely useless rage the entire time. There's a reason for that.



Golem will give me a slight amount of breathing room. It won't help with Fire Beam but luckily Pipimi happens to nullify Fire.



Overcast fucking sucks. It gives you a real short timer and when that runs out, whoever got hit becomes a Zombie. It is unblockable but can miss, and apparently a Revivify won't fix you after you become a Zombie!



Weird day when Flare is the least of your worries.



Pipimi went Z on us and Taiga stayed in that terrible Rage that did 600 damage on a physical but Minori kept pumping out the Bolt 3 and Goku helped with ?-Geo.

Oh, the reason I kept Taiga in that Rage? I simply wasn't paying that much attention as this was my SIXTH ATTEMPT. And this one still took over 11 minutes! Whoever asked me if the boss battles ever got hard, here's your monkey paw wish. It dropped a Tintinabar just to insult me one last time.



Goodbye, potato.







Goodbye, old man. You'll be the subject of rumors for decades.



Hello, potato.

Strangely, it only used Seize. Which only works on one person at a time. I'll hazard a guess that it can't do anything else while Seizing.



This pleases Taiga.



No potato left behind!



GOTTA GO!



Not good.




Editor's Note: If you're reading this in the future on the Let's Play Archive or similar, I held a vote in the thread. The consensus was to create a completely new seed with the code that starts you in the World of Ruin. I did this to have more thread engagement and because it was boring to just retell what happened from the videos I made months ago. That is why everything in the future will be different. Now you're all caught up in time for the World of Ruin!
