He's magical.

That, or he had like 0.2 HP and since there are no decimals in the counter it had to be marked as zero. :D

He dies anyway. :D It's just like Tellah in IV. Adrenaline kicks in before they kick the bucket.

Two words. He's Galuf.

His pure awesome allows him to defy the limits of his reality.

When does this occur?

In the guardian tree, when he battles Exdeath.

Tellah was a bit different though: his adenaline stopped his MP running out and allowed him to cast a spell whose MP cost was higher than his maximum. Nevertheless that's easily the best answer :)

Well when you reallize that Zero HP does not equal "death" it makes more sense.


Despite the translated versions of some games describing Zero HP as "Death", it isn't they are merely just so badly damamged they can't fight anymore (or do anything) hence why the others can "revive" them. (Not the right word evidently).

Gaulf just kept him self going when he should have stopped, so he died.

It's just making use of the medium to express the idea of superhuman rage, very artistic really.

I always thought it was because of the forcefield that ExDeath used to smack Krile around. Galuf kind of absorbed it so although his HP went to 0 it was deflecting Exdeath's attacks.


I suppose the joke answer here would be "his beard protected him" :tongue:

The old man was operating on a higher level at that point.

People can accomplish amazing things when they're under extreme pressures and having an overwhelming drive to do something. That can include enduring well beyond human limits, and fighting with a strength beyond what's normally possible.

It's not rage, though. He says so!

Questions end in questionmarks.

I don't know how he did it, but it sure was awesome to watch.

Tell you what, if it bugs you so much, then have him learn Rapid Fire and Dualwield before this point, equip him with the Blood Sword, and use Rapid Fire to go at ExDeath. Keeps him at full health. Lemme tell ya, it kinda ruins the moment for me.

I really hate it how I used to do thoes stupid "Why is no one paying attention to me?!" type posts, and really want to distance my self from them...

But seriously has anyone here read my reply to the question asked? If you don't agree that's fine, I guess, ut I'd really like to know what you think of my answer.:(

I read it, and I agree. Others might not. These forums are a horrible place to expect people to reply to each theory put forward.

At the end of the day, all these theories are respectively plausible. Especially any one crediting the beard.
