relm's bug? how do you make it?
"Relm's bug" probably refers to the well-known trick of using Sketch on "illegal" enemies, which often has strange results. It also sometimes happens when a Sketch fails for some other reason. I would caution against it. While it can potentially net you a lot of items, including Economizers, it can cause severe glitches, including ruining your file (which a reset WILL NOT solve). In my opinion, this is not a risk worth taking, especially since there are other ways to get Economizers.
The economiser is required for my games. Much like the Gengi Glove, Offering, and Moogle Charm. I just run a buncha circles around the Jurassic Park place. That forest... I level up all my chars to max while I'm at it usually. All the ones I plan on using the rest of the game anyway.
The sketch bug actually works a tiny bit differnt then previously described. It's been mostly figured by a chap called Master Zed that frequents another forum I've been going to. I swear, he knows everything about FF VI. If I didn't know any better, I would even think that he worked on the original game sometimes. If I didn't know any better that is. Here's an outside link to a detailed discussion on the Sketch Glitch. It's a tad bit complicated but it's eventually broken down into the basics. If you feel like a little cheating, you can probably get an Econimizer with the Sketch glitch. If you use it properly that is. (If you use it improperly, well you might want to say bye-bye to your save file.)
Anyway, for more "save safe" minded players there are other more legit ways of getting it. I got one from a Brachosaur once and it's definatly worth it. It's a long wait but it's definatly worth it. With all of the Spells, Lores and Espers costing only 1 MP apiece, Magic users can make great use of that relic.
Stealing from Aquila, I've never tried before but I've heard from many a reliable scorce that it's possible. You can encounter them in two places. The first place is the Phoenix Cave, top floor on a few select tiles. It's hard to find them there unfortuanatly so you'd be better off fighting the Brachosaurs. The other place is in the Colosseum by betting multiple things. I reccomend the Strato because it's easy to get back. Now if you want to steal reliably in the colloseum, I'd reccomend taking Gogo. You can set him up so that his abilities are Mimic (Which'll act as fight) Steal, Steal and Steal. Give him some Running Shoes and Sneak ring too and you're off. Whatever you steal (Either Phoenix Down or Econimizer) is yours to keep win or lose. Like I said before though, I never tried stealing the Econimizer from an Aquila myself so I'm not entirly sure about it myself unfortunatly.
The other way is to bet the one of a kind Gem Box but you won't want to do that. The Gem Box is an excellent tool that's best combined with the Econimizer, not traded for it.
Or it that's too much hassle, you can always, you know get Zoneseek and teach everybody Osmose. It'll waste a turn but the MP you can gain is practically endless and in addition to the self restoration, you're also depleting your enemy of a little bit of MP as well.
Look, I'm a strange person. When I was younger, nothing used to make me laugh any harder then when somebody made fun of me. Unfortunatly for me, my mockers looked at me strangely and stopped when I did this. Go figure.
