Final Fantasy V Challenge Megathread Part #45

Part 45: Big Pharma

Trump the Samurai - Part 6 - Big Pharma

Last time we followed Galuf cause he abandoned us like a jerk.

I kill as many of these guys as I can for free AP and Tents.

Oh no a bunch of really weak enemies

Trump was sleeping without his armor, but katana attacks are all he needs to beat one.

This must be like the 5th time this image has come up, but seriously.

WHAT IS THAT EVEN PROJECTING ONTO? THAT'S NOT HOW LIGHT WORKS!

Anyway, the reason for taking off all the armor (besides showing off) was for poor level 1 Galuf here.

Go away spiders

So Gilgamesh. I totally wanted to just man fight him, but it would take at least 20 hits, which means at least 20 dodges in a row.

Even with all the evasion gear, Gilgamesh will eventually get a hit in.

Here is me blundering at this.

Instead, I just do it the way others have done, with a coin to the face.

I agree.

Gilgamesh 1

LEVEL: 1
DEATHS: ~12
GIL THROWN AT BOSSES: 27,500G

Now that his duty is done, Galuf falls back to the ground.

And Trump falls to the ground in order to sneak by.

Encounters out here actually hurt. Good thing I have Tents and the enemies drop Hi-Potions.

Is that a bridge? That seems abnormally large?

YESSSSS

MONSTERS AREN'T SCARY, I AM READY

I AM NOT READY

Aside from the chariots who have Mustard Bomb, the other enemies just use physicals. Also more cats

Out of the way, jerkface! I was enjoying this bridge in all its bigness!

Gilgamesh still uses lots of physicals, but he also has a few spells like Aera and Wind Slash. Not too powerful, but enough to make me use a few Hi-potions.

What fight are you watching?

He then goes into overdrive and attacks like 3 times, which almost killed me. One Zeninage is enough to go through his Protect and end the battle.

Once again, I agree.

Gilgamesh 2

LEVEL: 25
DEATHS: 0
GIL THROWN AT BOSSES: 28,750G

Hello again, Garula. Some things never change.

Anyways, we get blown to the middle of nowhere.

ZOMBIE SAMURAI 2015: coming soon to SyFy.

Apparently zombies can get EXP too. All the corpses hit level 6 just from this one fight.

Regole means BUYABLE HI-POTIONS! I blow all of my gil on as many as I can get.

The moogle falls down the hole and we go help. I just want to mention that the encounters are getting much harder with 4-5 enemies per group, and some, like the crabs in the tunnel here, have really high defense.
