This video contains a lot of things. I'll list them here, in the order they are shown in the video:

1) Moogles.
2) Shadow.
3) Cyan fights the Imperial Leader.
4) Sabin & Shadow fight Telstar for a Green Beret.
5) "Do I look like a waiter?"
6) Boss battle against GhostTrain, NO FENIX DOWN USED!
7) Sabin & Cyan fight Rizopas (the fish thing).

More detail on boss battles:

Imperial Leader: have Cyan use Retort for an OHKO.


Telstar: Shadow throwing Shurikens with Atlas Armlet does as much damage as Sabin with his AuraBolt, however, the latter gets berserked after he blitzes once, so Shadow becomes the party's main damage dealer in this battle.

Shadow is given RunningShoes (Auto-Haste) to get as many Throws as possible in, Sabin gets a Genji Glove & a Black Belt to kill Imperials in a counter attack.

Telstar has devastating lasers in his arsenal and therefore should be taken out as quickly as possible. The Imperials should be ignored.


GhostTrain: I know, a Fenix Down is an instant KO... But I am playing this game to have fun!

GhostTrain without Fenix Down is one hell of a boss. He can inflict random status effects on the entire party, has two full-party damaging moves that only Sabin and Cyan are able to survive at full health, and counters with Wheel 1/3 of the time.

I beat him once after 15 attempts (before I started recording), and I came to the conclusion that after GhostTrain uses any of his full-party techniques, there is very little point to continue the battle, because you will simply delay your death by healing with Tonics and Potions and will have no means of squeezing in an attack.

So, what does this mean? Kill him before he kills us, that's what!

Sabin should be given Earrings and RunningShoes, he will Blitz whenever he gets a turn. Cyan and Shadow heal the wounded and use a Potion on the boss when it is acceptable (he is undead and takes damage from recovery moves).

It can be argued that you should forget about your vitality altogether, however, the least thing you want to see here is one member knocked out, the other two remaining alive and unable to act as a team properly.

I had problems killing him nevertheless, and managed to win thanks to... Shadow's dog, who does spectacular damage in a counterattack! Gotta love Shadow and his doggy!


Rizopas: his spells are very strong, and El Nino wipes out the entire party. He didn't use El Nino when I fought him, fortunately, so it was an easy battle.
