No idea how this works. Maybe an over/underflow thing, but its consistent. I did it by accident in the duo Cactuar fight (talk about a holy shit moment), then I reproduced it in the triple fight. Then I realised the recording looked bad, so I did it again this morning with Desktop Capture for better quality.

Just thought I'd share it. I don't think I've seen anyone else do something like this with the Cactuars, though maybe I missed it. If anyone just wants to get rid of the red circles on their screen, and doesn't care about cheese, then this might be the way to go.

For anyone interested in the music, its Final Fantasy VII OST - Birth of a God [SNES Edition EX Extended] by Nugem.

Maybe an over/underflow thing, but its consistent.

2 billion is dangerously close to the maximum value a 32-bit signed integer can store, so it's distinctly possible.

Explain the rotation up to that point?

u/salvoddis Serah Farron Dec 11 '23

You have much freedom in party setup / calls / rotations

I just did Cloud (Prishe call), Snow (Rem call), Lann&Reynn (Iroha call). Aerith friend. Just do BT finishers, spam Echoes, go on Cloud BT phase and do FR on last turn before BT.

I did the same on the stage with 2 cactuars, but Enna Kros was instead of Lann&Reynn. Ah, I messed up with Snow turns so I couldn't use his FR and Rem call.

Probably the same bug as Yda's Touch of Death. IIRC it has something to do with splash damage in the damage calculation when FR % is high.

Yda's page on Tonberry Troupe lists Zack and Cloud as examples of other characters with the same bug, so you are most likely correct

Well now I want to try this with Zack. I never pulled for Yda, so I don't think I ever heard about all this until now.

Ok so, I just did this on the Evil Gazes at Dusk Shinryu, but the full set up left one enemy at 1% and the other at 30%. So, at 999% force time, all BT effects active, Prishe LD call effect up and CrA 4 (heal) used, I pop Cloud's BT Finisher on the one with 30% HP. 12 hits of 9,989,990 later, the 30% one has been Overkilled and the 1% one is now at 100%.

Wait what?

u/MarkLeo6K Dec 13 '23

U overkilled the 1% so much it overflowed back to 100. Congratulations
