    Mirror Mail didn't work? Surprising. And I think you should have realised by now brute force doesn't work well on Fafnir.

    An alternative strategy (the one a friend of mine used) involves having...

    Yiazmat isn't necessarily harder, the fight is just longer and more tedious.

    Gilgamesh is more likely to push you to your limits because your party members aren't fully developed yet.

    Mudslinging? Please don't throw that term around if you don't grasp what it means, it doesn't apply here.

    What I did was comment on a general and demonstratable trend here and on other forums....

    VIII because you can break it within an hour or so of starting. Most of the games have very slow starts, so replays are difficult to motivate without that option of completely breaking the game.

    You are going to love fighting Ultima. She cycles through arena effects and all of them are major hindrances.

    Anyway, once you know Cuchulainn has this additional effect, you should really be...

    That is paramount to an admission that you cannot defend your assertions.

    You have made specific assertions that are relevant to this thread. Saying "look at my post history" is laziness at best...

    Leaving the audience to make inferrences on their own is not, in and of itself, bad story-telling. There isn't a need for lots of exposition and having a lot is actually detrimental. If you weren't...

    Most people's problem is that Espers aren't quite the PUSH BUTAN WIN GAEM Aeons of X. They aren't for boss battles or hunts, they're for either power-levelling (only the summoner will gain EXP given...

    The best way to get Mirror Mail is not to buy it, but to chain Mirror Knights in the Feywood. From the sounds of it, the EXP will still be worth your time and the loot you get can be sold for a hefty...

    Diabolos requires the key next to the fallen Bhujerban at the Phon Coast Hunt Club (it was the key one of the kids you saved on the Antlion Hunt dropped). You won't find it in Bhujerba.

    The reverse strategy is impossible early game and unsustainable mid-game, so it's certainly not how you beat all the bosses. What you described is also an incredibly inefficient way to use it...

    The current consensus seems to be that this will be sort of like a Final Fantasy Smash Brothers.

    Whether or not that's a good thing and they can pull it off is up in the air, though.
