Should I level up??

[Ultima Shadow]

Well, to begin with, you'll need all the useful spells and a really good equipment. When a character is hit by an attack, it's a guaranteed kill. Therefore evasion, magic evasion and Life3 is really important. Thanks to "Mirage" you can avoid getting hit by most phsycical attacks and Celes Runic can be used to absorb magic... even though I didn't find it useful in the Final Battle against Kefka since most of his attacks are "special attacks" and not normal spells, thus they cannot be absorbed... not to mention the fact that you can't use Magic yourself when Runic is activated. It's pretty useful in some other battles, though.

Anyways... surviving IS the really hard part... in almost any battle.

Terra can do some pretty decent dammage with a double casted Ultima. Gembox is easy to get if you've got the Moogle Charm and in order to have enough MP to actually cast Ultima, you'll also need that item which makes all spells only cost 1 MP. So... Terra's your main killing-machine. However... most of the time you'll be busy reviving and stuff... so therefore this battle will most likely take much more than 1 hour... not to mention the fact that you'll probably fail countless times before you actually manage to beat him.

Oh, yeah... and if I remember correctly, Necronopticous actually defeated Kefka by using "Rasp" until Kefka didn't have any MP left, making him unable to attack. I've never tried to do that myself, though. So I don't know whenever that's more or less effective than just attacking his HP.

id say yes but it isnt on the choices(damn hypellos. theyve invaded the FF6 forum.). i wouldnt level up to 20 but id level up a bit more.its good to level up a lot but not so the games a breeze but just so its relatively easy unless you want a low level challenge.

There's only 3 battles that's really, really REALLY hard. First Ultros, The sky battle before the floating continent and the final Kefka.

I try that too,but I cant defeat the first Ultros!!He always kills my Banon.

[Ultima Shadow]

Yeah, that's what makes it so hard. Try to defend with Banon as often as possible and always have him in the backrow. Still... 1 or 2 good hits from Ultros and he's dead.

yeah!It´s really hard if your character get killed easily.But I continue trying.I hope I beat him today.

But if you believe in your heart...

[The legendary Shadow]

He kills my Banon before I can defend again.that means iits banons turn he attacks him,every time.And then Its over

Well, this IS one of the 2 most frustrating battles during the whole low-level challange. The other one is the Sky battle. Kefka's frustrating but far from being as frustrating as these 2.

All your characters should be in the backrow and don't be afraid to waste expensive items. Just keep trying.

[Captain Maxx Power]

Levelling isn't necessary in FF6, unless you intend to power up your characters with espers, but it's not needed since you can easily get uber-leet chars even when they're in their late 30s coming out the otherside of the side-quests in the WOR.

I won´t give up!!!!

Hey, tell me how the battle usually goes, as detailed as possible.

[The legendary Shadow]

My Edgar attacks with 2 Weapons(does more Damage than autocrossbow), Sabin uses Aurabolt,Terra uses Fire and Banon defends/heal.
Every first tentacle goes to Terra and shes history.I revive her and heal.Next round I defend with Banon.Then he uses Tentacle(all).I heal with Terra,I defend with Banon.Now this round, he uses the Tentacle on Banon,in his turn(that means when the window is showen.In this little time he isn´t in defend mode anymore).Ultros does 100-110 damage to my Banon,but he only has 69.

[Neco Arc]

it depends on how challenging you want the next few er...scenes to be...if you are having trouble then you can return to a old save file and level up... if you are doing fine then you can continue to do so... just remember leveling up in FFV wont hurt you like it does in FFVIII

[Ultima Shadow]

Well... who's placed in the backrow and who isn't? I don't remember everything about this battle since it was months ago... but if Edgar's currently in the frontrow, it MIGHT be a better idea to use a sheild insyead of 1 of his weapons and place him in the backrow and use the Crossbow.

"Now this round, he uses the Tentacle on Banon,in his turn(that means when the window is showen.In this little time he isn´t in defend mode anymore).Ultros does 100-110 damage to my Banon,but he only has 69."

Well... you could wait with inputting any command with the character who gets his/her turn last out of all your characters in the first round, and then, once Ultros have made a move on the second round, you input whatever command seems to fit the situation with that character etc. That way, Banon should still be defending when Ultros makes his 2nd move... I think.
