Those that having problem with counters.
Try not to go offensive. Stack up your defense and use the hardest hit you could only.

*spoiler*
For me. I used Kain's Jump against Asura.

Grinding level doesn't really help much. You gotta use different offense/defense against different monsters.

And don't go stinchy on items when you really need to. The casting delay could very much make or break your party.

Use those augments wisely, too. Putting on the wrong char could make it become useless.

Why?  Just use reflect on her and the battle is simple  Also, slow works on every boss I've encountered so far and it's a lifesaver.

I di like how each boss is ridiculously hard at first glance but each one has a specific trick that makes it beatable.

 

yeah, like that doctor guy in the tower when he cast reversal on himself iv'e just use an elixir on him . i'm gonna try to beat her this time.

I try not to give full spoiler :)

It's kinda obvious thing to do when she keeps *buffing" herself.

  i already try it using reflect, i did beat the game already (gba version). Now i've got new plan so she won't be too much trouble.

1 - No, it's really an hard game to begin with.

2 - It's not one of the best. Like stof said FFVI advance would be a better choice. It's one of the best game of all time and it's pretty balanced.

3 - How long is the game? 30 hours

4 - How hard is the game? It's a real bitch and it's why I don't play it nearly as much as I would otherwise.

 

1. Actually, just because the game is more difficult doesn't mean he made a bad choice. He actually said that he likes hard games.

2. Twesterm is who you meant, and he actually said that "yes" he did make a good choice, and never said the game isn't one of the best. It actually is, imo, and isn't in your opinion.

 

I dunno how anyone could hate on FFIV DS after having actually played it(not that you hate it). The only "drawback" to this game is the increased difficulty from previous american versions, which was added for people who have already played it before. I find it refreshing, as the game isn't really all that difficult imo, anyway.

Also, IMO, FFIV always did have better music and FFVI.

Though, without a doubt, the DS remake of FFIV blows away the GBA "remake" of FFVI, even though FFVI advance is pretty good, and definitely superior to the original.

 

I wouldn't recommend any JRPG to a DS owner besides FFIV, atm, until they've bought FFIV DS(even TWEWY). It's the best JRPG available on the console, and possibly the best game, period, imo. Marginalizing it, especially in the potential case that you haven't played it(not saying you haven't), isn't acceptable.

You've made the mistake of comparing FFIV with FFVI. That's completely different than comparing FFIV DS with FFVI advance.

New JRPG gamers, who might not go in for retro gaming, will almost certainly prefer FFIV in every way, not to mention the massive technical advances IV DS has over VI advance. Us older guys tend to forget that not everyone has a nostalga factor, and newer gamers do perfer a less dated presentation.

That said, imo, FFIV and FFVI's places amongst the best games in the FF series, are as always, debatable.

However, even if the best game ever made is slighly better than FFIV DS, it doesn't mean that the TC made a bad choice. Quite to the contrary, he actually probably made the best possible choice, or at least the second best, and indeed I think it is very unlikely anyone who ever bought any DS game felt regret about it, seeing as how the cartridge medium resells for nearly the same price as factory seals games, not to mention that the game is possibly the best DS game, and at least in the top 20. I certainly doubt anyone who bought FFIV DS had regret. How could they?

I don't understand how anyone could tell the TC he made a bad choice. Especially when he already said he likes hard games, and it's a pretty fair assertion that at the very least FFIV DS is a top DS game. Can you explain yourself please?



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

I did it this time, and i've used other way to defeat her combination of reflect,blink,throw,jump, and summon titan.

I know in other version of the game Mirage and Blink weren't that important to me but with all the really strong counter attacks I use Blink and Mirage *very* often now.

 Yeah, she became almost to easy when i used it.



You picked a very good game. It can be pretty hard at parts while other parts are pretty easy, but it's still a really good game.
