[Azulmagia]

Attack and cure yourself with Hipotions

its been almost a month since the last reply but still.....i couldnt beat that part for almost a week because i kept attacking the knight if this thread was here earlier you guys would of save me time.

All I did was Attack normally and used Potions when needed. It's easier that way.

[Eiko Guy]

well dont try to parry unless you have great timing and dont fight him unless you overlvl i once piggyd cecil so it would be easy

I always kill him so that I can be Dark Paladin Cecil and dual-wield the Excalibur and the Hades Blade.

In the SNES version he has very few HP (like 1000), probably because they thought beginners could never think of not attacking. In the anthologies version he has insane HP. I don't even think you can kill him but I can't say for certain ... I never tried XD

To win the first time throught, I just bought some Cure2 Potions which were enough to keep me alive.

i'm playing the GBA version (never played Snes version)... i got up to this bit and died a few times, first attacking as normal... then later trying to defend, i also died.

then when it says "a true paladin would sheath his sword", i went into items mid-fight, unequipped my sword and the battle ended.

I just kept attacking and got my ass kicked :P

I figured it out after 5 tries XDDDD

[Novaris]

don't kick his arse. I'm being serious, one thought of asskicking and you got paladin Cecil on a bacon pan. Well what do you think that smell was? Paint?

[Fatal Impurity]

first time i faught him i just thought it was an evil "trial by combat" boss....but after getting owned twice i had an ephipany and de-equipped my sword hence beating that little bugger.....*phew*

[XandrewX]

It's easy...I got owend once...you just need to focus more on healing and wall yourself...don't make all out attacks...it won't work...good

[Fireblade13]

I saw the "Ahhh the power of cheese" guide and so i defended and maybe potioned. He just looked at me and said "Dang u! Since you have done nothing i will now kill myself and let you go save the world!" Not even the pirates of FF1 were dumber

I would try and heal the D-Cecil, cause I thought that is what a true knight would do. But then I realized I just had to sit there and do nothing.
