Classic, never gets old. Though I did like the added insult that he posessed the guy with the Magic Fire Ring.

ah very clever. I was too young to understand phoenix down back then. just thought it brought you back to life and that was it. This reminds me that i think there is a similar situation in Final Fantasy 9 where you fight a Tree or something and you cast life and it would do big damage instead of fighting it normally as the Tree would cast mustard or something and characters inflicted would randomly die during the fight regardless how much HP they had. I may have remembered wrong. it was many years ago. There was another situation in Final Fantasy 10 where you fight something underwater which was undead and you could use phoenix downs on it to do major damage as it would not kill it in one go like here in the video.

Yes, I think this trick made the rounds back when ff7 first came out, and so Square nerfed it a little in subsequent games knowing players would try the same trick again. And yes, the Lifa Tree in ff9 had a similar trick 😁 I believe people found it ironic since it was called the Lifa Tree.

@VTKC Жыл бұрын

@@Vilis_Farthuk yes! That was it! The Lifa Tree. I am puzzled as I wasnt aware it was undead since it was a Tree. perhaps i didnt pay attention to the detail of the story regarding the trees in that game at the time.

@@diiou It really blew my mind when I was older and played through FF9 again and finally realized this. When I was a kid it never dawned on me that the name was supposed to be a proper noun and always thought it was just a lower case L. For years I called it the Lifa tree.

Tbh i never even thought of using a pheonix down. I guess it makes sense that the item that revives would kill an undead. I'll use this on my next playthroug. im doing atm, but it's a new threat mod so i have no idea what this boss will be like.

It would be to early in the game to try Summoning Phoenix, but I think Phoenix only targets allies with the Life ability, so it likely wouldn't have this effect.
