    Default Most Epic Attacks

    I've been replaying Final Fantasy VI recently. Nevermind that I love this game to pieces and it's one of my favorite numbered Final Fantasies. This time I have a goal - a purpose!

    Several of my friends run DDR club on campus, and my roomate, through use of Stepmania's editor, makes a wide assortment of steps for various video game and anime music.

    Recently, they just fixed up the FFIV Zeromus battle. The program allows for a background, which was of someone actually fighting Zeromus.

    My immediate thought: We need Dancing Mad

    My secondary thought: I will most definitely be fighting Kefka for a background for Dancing Mad.

    Thus, I'm currently running through the game again (using the Advance version). I've played it any number of times, so I know how to beat it and get everything. The question is: what are the most epic and awesome looking attacks (in your opinion of course) that I can bust out on Kefka to make the battle look cool?

    A few I'm considering are Ultima, of course, Alexander, probably some of the upper-tier elemental spells, stuff like that. So, opinions?

    Go for some of the Desperation attacks, notably Sabin's Tiger Break. Always thought that one looked rad

    Also, some Grand Train from Strago could rock hard.

    Bum's Rush, Meteor, X-Zone even though it wouldn't do anything.

    You should honestly be playing the SNES version. The GBA port's washed-out graphics aren't really the best for showing off.

    Desperation attacks was the first thing that came into my head.

    Pearl looks pretty nice too. And even though it wouldnt do much maybe shiva, ifrit and bahamaut. Or just bahamaut

    Have Setzer equiped with fixed dice.
    And Sabin's fire dance

    And meteo
    Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
    Have a nice day!!

    Ramuh's summoning with the circling lights and stuff is in my opinion a pretty epic attack.

    If you want a big finish, then there's the FMV from the PSX version of the game - with Kefka getting smote by Alexander in glorious 3D.

    For the purpose of a background, you may want to use an editor to have the characters utilize special skills and spells inaccessible through a normal playthrough. This would allow the background to be enticing and interesting to the players and spectators; furthermore, it would serve the purpose of possibly distracting the player in a positive manner that would add to the challenge of the dance.

    My recommendation is to use an editor to have each character on the battlefield perform their Desperation Attack. They can summon some of the Espers and use some of their upper-tier skills from their unique skillset, too.
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    Bum rush, Ultima, Flare, Holy(Pearl), Chain Saw, someone equipped with a Genji Glove and that relic that makes you attack four times(I forgot the name ><)to name a few

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    Careful. It will take some scripting to get it in timing with Stepmania's Audio ^^

    Try Quasar. That was my favorite animation in FFVI.
