    Default Ultimate Strategy

    I think I put together a good strategy...

    Ultimate Strategy= Leveling up Locke with Odin (Lock=Fastest Character in game+Odin puts up speed each level+Ragnarok's speed increase=PWN!) Then having my relics be Genji Glove and Offering (Genji glove's two weapon ability+Offerings 4 attacks each ability+Quick=16 attacks=PWN!)
    Locke becomes super fast, and attacks 16 times= Major pwness

    How's it sound?

    Well, he can pretty much do that pretty effectively even without speed boosts (Valiant Knives/Ultima Weapon). Of course, any character in FFVI can become reasonably overpowered (*cough* Gau *cough*). Unless you're talking about creating the most efficient killing machine, and I guess Lock would work out for that.

    Locke's the fastest character in the game, thus I chose him, and yes, I'm going for a killing machine

    If you do this in FFVI:A, I think Gilgamesh gives an even higher growth rate for Agility.

    Nope doing it in Anthology. At the moment I'm level 42 and both of the weapons can do 1,200 damage each hit with offering, so if I had Quick I could do 19,200 damage 1200*16=19,200.

    What's his second weapon? Atma weapon or Valient Knife? It really changes the strategy.

    If Atma, raise your HP so you can do more damage consistently.

    Giglamesh And Odin both give a +2 level boost to Speed/Agility.

    Gem Box + Economiser + Ultima = As much pwning as you could possibly need.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Locke's speed might make him good as the ultimate killing machine, but that type of uber character isn't necessary for anyone to beat this game. If you like seeing how much damage one guy can do, that's one thing, but for all practical purposes there's not much reason for it.

    Anyway, Gem Box + Ultima + Ultima = most powerful strategy for the most-difficult battles. Maybe throw a Quick in there for extra Ultimas. A character with high MP (or Terra in Esper Form) will cause max-damage to every enemy on the screen uniformly. So for a single enemy the Locke strategy might get you more damage, against several enemies, the total amount of damage caused by chained Ultimas will far exceed what Locke can accomplish.

    Über-speed is cool, but I prefer boosting all chars' Speed equally (42-50 or so); the rest I use for Vigor and MagPwr whoring.

    This is probably the best ending results:

    VIGOR: 110+
    SPEED: 42+
    STAMINA: --- (whatever)
    MAGPWR: 128

    Although having Locke kill Kefka in one move always makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

    I usually get speed to 50-60 and then work on Magic Power and Vigor.

    Here's what i do.

    Quick on the Gem Box/Economizer Person. That's 4 Ultimas.
    Then have Gogo Mimic for 8 Ultimas total. About 80k damage in two turns for 4 MP.

    Quick on the damage machine works pretty well, too.

    Thank you! I thought I'd never meet someone who does that.

    And if needed, combine the strategies. Bye everyone.
