Can I Beat Final Fantasy IX With Attack Only? Part 3 Ft. Antlion Boss Battle

Early access for future episodes & more on Patreon: goo.gl/xvvDJD ► Instagram/Twitter @dansg08 ► Playlist: bit.ly/FFIXAtt...
I held off doing this one as a video already exists of it, but I recently checked out the first couple of minutes and saw that it allowed the use of Magic Stones. It may be 100% necessary to use them to complete the game, but given the madness that ensued (and educational value) of no-junction FFVIII Attack Only, I wanted to push the challenge a little further with my own take on it, and not allow the use of Magic Stones for as long as possible.
The series will be similar in approach to FFX Auto Battle, with a voiceover style as opposed to real-time commentary, tighter editing to remove much of the excess and fortnightly episodes to give the series more structure and provide something for people to look forward to.
Whether you are going to wait for each episode or binge it all afterwards, I appreciate you taking the time to check this mini series out!

I enjoy the way you make your thumbnails. It makes it easier to scroll back through your many uploads and make sure I saw the previous part of the series

[@tricd0444]

@@iamthehobo I just wish I had found this while it was getting released. The attack only series is awesome!

[@Reiss610]

New episode! Love replays of the older titles and added challenge makes them even better. As always, absolutely delightful watch and enthralling voice 🖤

[@riseofborg]

love your final fantasy attack only series

[@kainrich6183]

Blood sword IS the only oneof ITS Kind. Except the ability healer where you can heal your own Party members with Attack Commando

[@michaelnewman6948]

Always happy when i see an FF9 video

[@luminguard]

honestly as a fan of final fantasy 7-10, practically any challenge done in one of those is going to get my views.

[@hartatan-dad]

We appreciate you going the distance on this one. Whatever you decide to do next, I know I'll be watching

[@percymacdonald6657]

FF9 attack only your liver challenge. Drink every time Dansg08 says 'basically'

[@diacor4life489]

Funny thing is, you can't lose to the second (broken) Black Waltz 3, if he kills Marcus and Steiner, it doesn't know what to do because it's not programmed (in lore) to attack Dagger, therefore it kind of short circuits and starts to "crack" and take damage every turn until it dies.

[@thattruegamernerd]

Just for the record you CANNOT lose the Black Waltz No.3 second fight unless you choose to attack Garnet yourself, as BW will never choose to attack her and if she’s the only character alive it will attack itself instead of Garnet. It’s definitely a unique mechanic and it also helps people who didn’t grind or get good equipment for Garnet on Disc 1 and all.

[@thattruegamernerd]

Yeah Shock is non-elemental, when used by Beatrix it just deals massive unblockable damage, as a Sword Art ability Shock just deals 3x base damage and its element is based on the element of the equipped weapon, so only Ice Brand, Coral Sword, Flame Saber and both Excaliburs can change the element of Shock. But yeah there’s basically no way to survive Shock straight up so early on without being even slightly over-levelled, since even if it uses the same damage calculation as the playable version, 3x Beatrix’s normal stats is too much so early

[@rpproductions6241]

Yep, was going to say this too.

[@SakuraSamael]

Vivi is indeed precious! He has the same vibe as the petrified characters in the FFVIII challenge. He's at least taking the heat off of your main attackers.

[@atomicgrave4340]

I guess not many people know, but you can get Power Belt for half a price. Initially thief steals 1000 gil from Garnet, but if you press the X button at the right time he'll steal only 500 gil from you. I know, it's just 500 gil to save, but in early game money is hard to come by, even with cotton robe trick, so having such an option to get smth cheaper than you originally would've spent is great i think. Have fun with this info.

[@Decade-c9k]

Ralvurahva, the purple snake boss, is apparently meant to be "Larvalarva". Ralvuimago, the green, is apparently meant to be "Larvaimago". See the wiki pages for a discussion of the etymology.

[@engageimmerse7384]

Loving this challenge Berk!

[@TheMissCorky]

Love these challenges plz keep going!

[@eazeprestige8853]

Finally part 3 i waited like a month haha

[@mansoorgaming7235]

Instant like. Now let’s watch this beautiful challenge ❤

[@hiddenbutdeadly]

I remember my first playthrough i put the power belt on Marcus...then he left and i never got it back...and couldn't synth something later that needed a power belt. Ah memories...then in later playthroughs i killed him off and farmed with the Blood sword!

[@notyourbusiness6428]

This is the way

[@pippofranco879]

loving this, mate

[@steveozone4910]

Looking forward to a remake of FF9. Hopefully without all the multiverse nonsense 😂

[@ballroomscott]

It’s unlikely they would use the same twist twice, but it could be interesting if Garland is somehow able to reach into Memoria and see that Terra failed to assimilate Gaia’s cycle of souls and tries to change tactics. Perhaps sending a new Genome to be a romantic rival to Garnet and seduce Zidane into joining forces with Garland.

[@alarsenal10]

Sublime work. Keep it up, please.

[@TheLastVoodooMan]

I seem to (mis-)remember that BW3-2 doesn't attack/kill Garnet.

[@denniswedertz7619]

Does it count in your rules as healing if u using the ability Auto-Potion? could be very helpfull for future battles

[@darksero4433]

He does it without magic stones which you need for auto potion. Same with the healing attack garnet and eiko can get.

[@mj_out]

gg

[@TheOnexDeeJay]

First

[@ZephniStrife]

Am I being super dumb or is there no FF9 Attack Only playlist on this channel yet?

[@knightky975]

Great video once again, love this series

[@cronoluminara6911]

Heck yeah thx bro hope you have a great weekend
