    I believe that they are completely random. I don't think that there is any way for the game player to force it. I've never actually seen it happen either so if it is random then the chance of it happening must be pretty low.

    They happen at random when a character's low on HP... after playing through FFVI twice, I've only ever seen a couple of these moves.

    You have to be so low on HP that your character is crouching. Then, when you select the Fight command (nothing else will activate it), you have a very small chance of a Near Death Attack occuring.

    I have played through the game about twenty times, and I've never seen a single one.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I've seen Mash, Locke, Edgar and Celes perform the trick in my 2 playthroughs. No one else.

    All My character have done it at least once. (Edgar done it 3 times in a row against Kefka) Now
    1- it doesn't have any relevance to your hp except you have to be in yellow life.
    2- Waiting at low life will not increase the chances but will steadily decrease them.

    and 3- You have more of a chance at using it on a strong enemy like Doom-Gaze.(thats the one he used it three time in a row against.)

    !!!MISTAKE!!!

    Sabin used it Twice on Doom-Gaze.
    (Sabin and Edgar have the same move, hence the confusion)

    Please use the edit/delete button instead of posting more than once in a row.

    I've seen it once with Locke and Celes

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    I've seen Moogle Rush, but that was because I was basically challenging the third path with half dead, useless characters. It's Bum Rush, but nowhere near as cool.

    There's like a 1/16 chance of seeing it, or something.

    I've only seen Celes' Riot Blade, I believe that's what her's is called. It was nice to see her do 9,999 damage to Kefka and kill him, right after he used Fallen One. xD
