elixers
in every final fantasy ive never used an elixer. i mean besides on the magic pots in ff7. not even when fightins ruby or emerald weapon or ozma or omega weapon or any of creations in the calm lands includeing nemsis. i always saw them as a cheat item i guess. does anyone else not use them?

the only time I see them as a cheat would be in FFVII because with the W-item trick they're unlimited for free. In other games they're usually rare items, or at least really expensive if they're in stores. AND I don't know any game in which you can buy a Megaelixir so no, it's only cheating in FFVII, which happens to be the one you used it in... probably with the W-item trick too

If you've got it, use it, that's what I always say. If you think Elixir's are evil, I'd love to know your stance on Megalixirs.
There is no signature here. Move along.
They're definitely nice in a pinch, and the game gives them to you so there's no reason to not make use of them. Of course, I rarely use them myself. Generally because I never need them.
If you think Elixirs are cheap you obviously haven't played nearly enough FFII.
ive never played FFII but i doubt id use them in that either and i said i didnt use them in FFVII. ive never once used one in any game. its just to make things a little harder and no i dont use mega elixers either.

I've got nothing against using them. It's not a cheat if it's an easily obtainable item purposely put in the game. That said, I usually save them unless I'm in a really tight spot. Which means I've maybe used five in all the years I've been playing FF.
HERE HERE!If you think Elixirs are cheap you obviously haven't played nearly enough FFII.
you need them to stay alive in this game....
and they are so **** expensive to!
At the end of the game, MP becomes REALLY important to maintain. Mostly because CURE is the only thing keeping your HP up. However, restoring MP is tricky because Ethers really don't restore all that much, and besides Elixirs, that's all you've got. Elixirs are important because you have so little inventory space that Ethers just aren't an option. You'd waste all your space just giving yourself enough to restore one person's MP once. Not to mention that you need to carry other things like Pheonix Downs.

and oh yeah, it's spelt elixir

I dont use them often either. At the end of a game i look in my items menu and its got like, 10-20 elixers sitting there. The only game i use them a little more is FF5. I think the reason I end up with so many is that I think to myself: "Ill save these till the final bosses". Whats funny is even when I get to the final bosses I seldom use them. I ususally forget theyre there. Might as well use them when i first get them.
i use them on magic pots in ff5

You gotta have at least a couple of Elixirs to finish FF III, unless your party is on stratospheric levels, because the last healing point in the immense final dungeon is in the Land of Eureka and you still have a long way to go before you fight the Dark Cloud. Not to mention the fact that the last 4 bosses (I never understood if they were mandatory or not) are tough.
I believe Dark Cloud is invincible if you don't kill them all.
