Final Fantasy VI Enemies

This is Specter. According to the latest Anthology release, this is the ghost of a murdered person. Oh my.

Specter has normal access to three attacks: Attack, the Ice spell, and Raid, which drains HP. If you damage Specter, he will hate you for it and get a 33% shot at attacking his attacker with !Lightning, which is nothing even remotely like Lightning-elemental.

There are a number of ways to kill this thing humiliatingly easy, but the Top 2 of cheap tactics go right against my game ethics. Of course, there's taking advantage of Square's assumption that even though it's supposed to be a rather difficult enemy, it still should be vulnerable to a Fenix Down, scoring a one-hit KO. Also, you're traveling with a ghost that is capable of delivering a one-hit KO on everything. But I'll guess that not only are you too good for the Fenix Down move, you also don't want to lose your cool ghost guy just yet.

So, when the battle begins, wait for Cyan's third Bushido skill, Slash. Don't move with Sabin and Shadow or even the ghost; just skip to Cyan and use Slash. It'll halve his current HP and should do 750 damage. Follow up with an Aurabolt and a Shuriken and you should be done. Expand Full Strategy

Telstar will normally use Attack, !SonicBlast, Schiller, Tek Laser and Missile to make your life harder than it already is. Every ninth turn it takes, Telstar will use Dischord to halve a character's level. After 25 seconds of fighting, Telstar will call two Soldiers to aid him. 55 seconds later, he'll call in three Soldiers to help him (if there are Soldiers from the previous calling still standing, he'll fill the number to 3), and 120 seconds later, he'll call four Soldiers (once again, he fills the screen up to four anyway). Finally, Telstar will counter any Blitz attack with Megazerk, making sure that Sabin will be Blitz-less in this battle, like an animal.

Shadow should be Throwing Shurikens while Sabin can keep on pumping out Aurabolts. If you didn't have a Ribbon, he will be Berserked by Telstar's Blitz-counter, Megazerk. It should be noted that Shadow will, for the first time, be vulnerable to attacks here as there's a large chance at least one of Telstar's magical attacks will be striking Shadow, removing the Invisible status.
