Well, officially, the mission was a success. You penetrated the Imperial Magitek Research Facility. You didn't exactly rescue the eight Espers you managed to find, but you did take their Magicite remains as per their request, which is just as good, really. Nobody on your side died. Cid is just a scientist, but his promise to try to persuade the Emperor is a glimmer of hope. Yet, the loss of Celes weighs heavily, and you're not out of Vector yet.Preparation: Equip the







Your infiltration didn't go unnoticed, however, and the Imperial forces are now attempting to chase you down. The aptly named Chaser robot is one of them. Chaser robots rain death from above, so it's your task to, you know, kinda geyser death from below.
Back to Chaser robots. They're the last of Cid's protective metal golems you'll meet. Chaser robots can shoot Magitek Lasers and weaken opponents by use of

Save at the Save Point if you want to. You can stroll into the Magitek Factory again here, but one of the pipes collapsed, so you can't go very far. The fact that even this part is shaking hints at the fact the entire building is going down; this was more than you could've hoped for. Simply run down the rails and you'll meet up with Setzer. The Empire was becoming paranoid, and the hustle and bustle in Vector alarmed him. He notices the lack of Celes, but understands the need to escape. The four of you rush out of Vector, freedom nigh. But not nigh enough. Kefka plays a last card in a final attempt to stop you from escaping. Cranes. I don't know about the countries you guys live in, but here in the Netherlands, cranes are not an uncommon sight if there's building going on, which there tends to be from time to time. They tend not to attack us, though. These two attack in pairs, can use Magic, and can significantly screw you up if you're not careful. You have one character you couldn't equip beforehand: Setzer. Setzer comes with

Crane (Right) is fire-based. It will attack physically and use the ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Crane (Left) is pretty much the same, only lightning-based. From "ELECTRIFICATION LEVEL: 1" it will pass through "ELECTRIFICATION LEVEL: 2" and "ELECTRIFICATION LEVEL: 3 Electrical energy unleashed!" performing a multi-target Gigavolt attack. All other features are the same, only it will cast a ![]() If you brought Gau and he knows how to perform the Anguiform Rage, you're in luck, as the ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||||||
The Cranes are not as hard as Number 128 was, and you're bound to gain the upper hand if you don't make any mistakes. Now, it's time to fly to Zozo. Let's see what Terra has been doing in the meantime; with Celes gone, we need Terra to fill the role of ex-Imperial magic woman.
