Out of curiosity, what is the Select+Cancel bug?
You determine your entire party's actions at once since these games lacked the ATB introduced in ff4. In FF2-nes, if you cancel and reselect an option, your previous option is still credited towards the levelling system. If you waffle back and forth between trying to choose whether to blast the zombie with fire or cure, selecting, backtracking and reselecting, you'll be credited for casting both black and white magic, and your spell ranks in fire and cure both will increase by however many times they were selected. And your power stat will suffer greatly xD
I've hit a major snag. It's impossible to complete Kashuon Keep without using physical attacks. R. Soul, the Boss of the Keep, absorbs all of the elemental spells. I can't think of any way to kill him not using weapons. A glance at the properties for this monster shows it absorbs all magic in general.
So.................yeah, I may have to break the "no physical attacks" rule just to finish the game.

what spells do you have, Maxx? we can probably make an exception for that one battle.
Well here's the thing; Our friend R. Soul has natural immunity to ALL of the elements in the game. These includes the hidden one's, such as immunity to Mind, Body, Dimensional etc. What that basically means is that the ONLY spells that will do damage to him are non-elemental, of which there are three; Ultima, Flare, Drain and Holy. Ultima I won't get due to the storyline until much later. Flare and Drain are under the same proposition. The only one I could possibly get is Holy, as I could trek down to Mystidia and buy a tome of it. However, my previous experiments with trying to get down there showed that I would have to be subsantially levelled before I could even think about it. To give you some context, I would take on average 500~600 points of damage per round of battle against the enemies in that direction. If you assume I'm using Fire of around level 6~7, without using Cure at any point I would need near to maxed out HP to survive. From a purely technical perspective, it's entirely possible for me to get past this battle whilst remaining in the bounds of the challenge. However the logistics behind doing that would be near impossible.Originally Posted by Rubah Lapah

did you try the 'cure to skip a battle!' trick?
I don't have any problem with allowing this exception(that means you can hit him), it's just people like to get the change spell from mysidia before they ever lose minh xD
It's an NPC in the way so that won't fly. Also most people aren't using only one character who can't equip any items he finds or could possibly buy.
I'll train up my Unarmed skill to Level 3 in normal battles if you'll permit me (attempting to take him down with Level 1 would be suicide), unless you have an abject issue with me levelling it?

After gettin lost in the cavern at Deist a bajillion times, I finally put the Wyvern egg in the right place and was rewarded with... nothing. ç__ç
As a means of compensation, Hilda revealed herself to be a Lamia Queen and the real Hilda is at a trek in the desert's distance. Just my lucky day.

I also have just dropped the Dragon Egg into the Spring and ended up with nothing. And still no pics. The journey continues tomorrow.
Hello Pika Art by Dr Unne ~~~ godhatesfraggles
Gordon is currently in use being the bottom character. It's not so much a case of who is there since all the characters are essentially the same. I say Level 3 because before that I wouldn't have enough attack power to outdo R.Soul's defense.
Once I get through I'll post some much needed piccies.

Hilda is now safe. Time to assault Castle Fynn!
