Defeating Ozma at level one.

[Genji Zorn]

Okay, I'm gonna attempt it. Not sure if it's been done before in this forum. But I'm gonna give it a try. I'll record my progress here, and for anyone interested, record a video of the battle with Ozma. Any questions?

[Craig]

Yeah, it's been done. A video would be interesting.

[SoftReset]

I've done it, and I've seen a video posted here of someone else doing it.

Getting to Ozma at Lv.1 is plenty more difficult than beating him at Lv.1

[ezzarian]

How can you get Ozma at level one??? Following the story, you need to be at least a few levels up!

[SoftReset]

No you don't. For all of those forced storyline battles you either Stop or Petrify the monsters, and that way you get no exp.

[Genji Zorn]

Nah, you don't. Most battles can be avoided, and the ones that can't, are usually boss battles where you only gain AP.

Where??? :confused:

is there a guide for this somewhere?

[BottledJustice]

I'm pretty sure there was one on gamefaqs.com, but I don't remember how in depth it went. As best as I can recall, it was mainly just an overview thing, use stone, how to get stone, and then how to prep for Ozma. Personally, I think it's kind of a bad idea, since I still haven't beaten him the normal way. That meteor is huge. Plus, I'm more into FF7 anyway. Sue me. :tongue:

^ You can't lose with this guide.

You can't lose with this guide.
Care to make a wager? I bet I can lose. I need to try beating Ozma at high levels before I attempt a Low Level game.

after being utterly rapped by ozma, i've grown a fear for superballs.

[Hellza]

i don't get how its possible.. he raped me like a little school girl at level 50....
is he weaker the lower your level?

[Old Manus]

I beat him at lvl 1 with only Eiko, no abilities, aloha gear, and a slice of toast.

Ozma is such a random boss, that he can be defeated easily if you get lucky, and he doesn't use killer moves, or he can destroy you with ease if you're unlucky.

Ozma is such a random boss, that he can be defeated easily if you get lucky, and he doesn't use killer moves, or he can destroy you with ease if you're unlucky.It's got a lot more to do with preparation than luck. Anyway, most of the challenge is getting to Ozma while keeping everyone at level 1.

[Craig]

I was under the impression that it was luck, because I didn't prepare at all, and the first 2 times I lost because he used that status attack, and on the 3rd time he didn't, and I won.

[Necronopticous]

Almost every attack Ozma uses kills a level 1 party in a single turn, therefore preparation is a million times more important than luck in the level one Ozma challenge, however luck also plays its part after the preparation is done, as you have to hope for Ozma to use the right attacks, like Doomsday which can be absorbed or guarded while also dealing 9999 damage to himself if you prepared correctly prior to the battle.
