This is a solo character single class challenge run of Final Fantasy. Only using the "Time Mage"-class to complete the entirety of the game, as a solo character.

The Time Mage is a Water-Job, that controls the most powerful buffs and debuffs in this game: Haste and Slow. Besides that, the Time Mage does have... Not a whole lot going for it. This results in a solo Time Mage for the most part being very dominating in combat, thanks to being able to take many turns compared to their opponent, but not being able to inflict all that much damage due to the lack of (reliably) attack spells.

Final Fantasy 5 main strength as a game is the ability to freely switch your characters between a variety of different classes at any time you please. Normally this used to mix and match abilties and enhance the characters strengths through using interesting synergies.

However, Final Fantasy 5 is also a fairly unique game in the sense, that it allows for many varied strategies to get through the various bossfights in the game. Many classes have many tools available. Some more, others less. Some classes are just outright powerful by themselves, others... Not so much. -- Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/yagamoth
