Ding, Dong, the Emperor is Dead!
Posted by Mike Blitz on December 26th, 2006
Made it to level 10 in Pandemomium late last night, and took on the emperor in the final battle. Surprisingly, it went well, and he dropped after about 15-20 panic-free rounds of combat. He shied away from using physical attacks on us, which helped a lot, because he, like Astaroth, hit for massive damage and regenerated about 75% of those hits. He only did that twice, which was fortunate for us.
We started out by tossing up some Blink, Haste, and Beserk spells, then shifted to pelting him with Holy and Ultima spells. We discovered that Drain did more damage, though, so we pretty much stuck with that for the entire fight.
And with that, the main section of Final Fantasy II is complete! However, we are playing the GBA Soul of Rebirth version of the game, so more fun lurks in the afterlife. Not finished with this one yet.
