Der Dunkelelfen

Results of trial run: TPK.

Details: Lost to the Dark Elf.


Everything goes great during the first stage. Then he turns into a dragon and hits Tellah for more than his maximum HP. We do eventually get him alive long enough to deliver a Tornado, but then everyone is too busy using Phoenix Downs to poke the Dark Elf once in the ribs, and we get Dark Breathed down.

Tellah going down in one hit made me really sit back and reconsider what needs to happen to make this a reliable fight. I still really, really don't want to have to add another level grind before the the Golbeze fight.

Solution: So what else can we do? Well, maybe we can increase his armor rating. I added some commands back in Baron to buy him a Kenpou and Bandanna; that raises his armor a little bit, but not by a whole lot. However, there's another solution that I don't normally consider; Cecil's Cover command. Firing that off once at the beginning of the fight makes Tellah very, very hard to kill in stage two, assuming he isn't near dead from a Tornado in stage one.
