Solo Black Mage/Wizard Challenge

[Martyr]

good luck finding Zombulls

[Black Mage FF1]

If you want to make that peninsula even more cheap. Bring tents, save the game, shut it off and load it back up. The first fight you get into at the peninsula will be either a group of all zombulls or zombulls with bulls.

i dont like solo FF1 challenges because its usually just leveling up until your able to beat the boss. i tried it with a monk though so theres not much strategy involved. its just constant attacking and occasional healing.

mages should add more strategy to it. good luck.

astos is really being a very big thorn in the backside

i keep blastin fire at him but then he will RUB me or beat my weak beady eyed as to a little beady eyed pulp.

any advice veterans?

Everybody gives up on Astos. I haven't played my solo Thief because Astos creamed me at lv 19. I'm supposed to be lv 26 for him, but whatever.

YOU should use ICE2, not Fire 2.

Second, he unly uses RUB on the first round. If you survive it, then he shouldn't use it again for a while (Spells cast follow a cycle. He does something like RUb, SLOW, FAST, SLOW2, LIT2, FIRE2, RUB etc...)

And if you do solo, you need luck. That ICE2 has to do 80 damage twice, not 56, 70, 40, 30 or else you'll end up dead. That's the way it goes. But if you went to the 20s for pirates, you shouldn't have any trouble. You just have to wait for a chance when RUB fails.

I did, it was rough, but I got the best equipment I could get, and since I only had one character, I lvled up and got tons of money.
