For those playing the pixel remastered on Steam, the developers intentionally or unintentionally killed part of this strat with the Flan; they are now gone from the tip of land south of Altair. Instead, you can find them along the strip of land west of Mysidian Tower, but you will encounter stronger mobs between Flan encounters, and the Flans can take damage from attacks and flee. The upside is that Teleport/Warp/Toad all miss so that you can level them, and their flee chance is low, so with a group of 6 Flans, you can still likely burn through your mp before they all run. I found beefing my characters up with Captains some more helped, and eventually, my shield skill capped out at level 13 from the mobs between Flan making it impossible for them to hurt me. Just bring a stack of Crosses with you and antidotes as the monsters between flans can poison and curse your party members. A notable downside will be that you can't just level up your fist or bows past approximately levels 12-13 on the Flan and the other monsters in the area. However, your weapons, such as swords and poles, can be leveled up to 16, so it is a mixed bag. LAST: The matching game was not in the original game but added in later versions of FF2. As Pixel Remastered mirrors the original game, there is no matching game and, therefore, no value in leveling up Toad for that purpose.

[@viktorstanev2752]

Also, since dual shields now use the unarmed attack animation and actually do damage, the dual shield strat has been basically clapped, so... We not have to play FF2 legit.

[@Aquarivania]

I remember when I was younger I used to actually not know how to get to Fynn because I always walked too far away from the river when walking north and assumed the enemies you run into up there were how strong you were supposed to get. I ended up grinding up to the point that I could reach Mysidia easily and it was all because I had no idea what to do to progress the game but I was addicted to the game's leveling system. When the day came that I actually walked near the river and found out how to reach Fynn I couldn't fucking believe it. It was like a dream. That was on another file though where I actually tried to play through the game properly, took in every single bit of dialogue to make sure I could find my way to Fynn. I was retarded, yeah.

It was the hardest thing in my life because i didnt know about esuna or antidote either. When i finally got over it, i found the chocobo village and used it to go to mysidia. I could never make it out there after chocobo is gone. I started living in the mysidia. Then i had to delete that savefile. But no worries i finished the game after a year.

You could also level teleport by walking into a town, teleporting out, then repeating until your MP is exhausted. Your character won't die no matter how many times they cast the spell. You could also then take that opportunity to level another character's cure spell, further increasing the gains by casting it on your whole party so you get more opportunities to use it on your character who casted teleport.

[@leargamma4912]

It levels faster out of battle just based on real time. So yes, this also works for the first dungeon. Teleport everything

FF2 stats leveling is very unique. It's really fun for a normal playthrough to have the flexibility to do your own class. If you try to max everything, it gets super grindy indeed. Autobattle from newer version helps a lot with that.

[@-ArdhaniChandra]

But have worst magic leveling system. The only magic you can leveling it easy is Cure spell because using magic outside battle will always give you 2% magic exp regardless of level while on battle using it once can be higher on lower level and lower on higher level to the point you only get 1% or even lower at magic level 12 or higher and of course that animation waste time to long. Also to train MP you are forced to have Swap Spell where you use it on full MP against enemy with low Spirit and no mana especially the weak one so when it was success, you lose almost your HP and Mana in a single battle, triggering the growth. Not only that, some stat could even decrease such as Intelligence if you didn't use magic often

[@seansnyder7744]

To be technical about it, I think my first FF title was Mystic Quest (which obviously wasn't considered an FF title by many) Thankfully I was too young to even know what I was getting into. I was visiting my grandparents in Palm Springs, who took us out to pick a present for Christmas, I originally chose Spawn, but my mom said it was sacrilegious, so I quickly looked for something random that looked like the best value, which of course was a 3 disc game, FFVII. Thus started my appreciation for the series, and eventually playing them all.

The first Final Fantasy I ever played was FF8 but the first FF I experienced was FF7. I sat next to my older brother and watched him play through the whole game and loved every second of it.

[@Primalliquid92]

[@maxmorgan3370]

My first Final Fantasy ever was Final Fantasy 8! My stepbrother of the time brought it over, and I instantly fell in love. It was so different from my other games, Crash, Spyro, Tony Hawk, all games I loved, but none with the focus on characters and storytelling that FF8 had. It introduced me not only to the series, but to the genre, and I still love it to this day. Fun fact, I wanted to rent FF8 when my stepbrother had went back to his mom's, but our game store didn't have it. So I took the next closest thing they had, which was Final Fantasy Tactics. My second-grade self was every bit overwhelmed, in awe, and in love with the game all at the same time. It wasn't until high school that I finally saw Tactics through to the end, and it was such an accomplishment for myself to finally finish a game I started back in elementary school.

[@sammoreed]

My favourite part I found with 2 when I first played it was just how open the map is and how the enemies are levelled to try and stop you. Wandering off the path and finding an enemy who could one shot me was a great lesson but an incredible moment. I would love for rpgs to have a bit more of the openess that this game had. Too many RPGs have become so formulaic.

[@Jotari]

Yeah, he said this was an old school Final Fantasy trait, but it's really not. It's a Final Fantasy II trait. In the first game you're stuck in the same area until you build a bridge, then you need a boat, then you need dynamite to get out of the inland sea, only then can you explore the full world map, though you still need the airship to get to most of it. Final Fantasy III is almost beat for beat similar only once you've finally opened the full world map you discover it's only a portion of the actual full world map which you still need to get two different air ships to explore. Final Fantasy IV also does that with its underground and space world maps (and Ditto with V and its two worlds). Final Fantasy II is really the only game where you can explore a significant chunk of the world from the moment you can play the game. The other early games are just as restrictive as the, well not newer games since they abandoned the concept of a world map after IX, but the later games.

[@sammoreed]

@@Jotari I don't know why they didn't make another game with this style of exploring. 2 had so many great ideas they just needed refining. Skill leveling is great fun and just needed tweaking, the key word system wasn't too bad there were just too many npcs to try them on. Thinking about it, it's amazing how much they tried changing all at once in 2.

[@Jotari]

@@sammoreed Yeah, I find II's gameplay really interesting in concept, but really poor in execution. I'd like to see another game tackle it properly (though I've only played the original NES version, so I don't know how the remakes handled the balancing of it).

So much so that I was thinking about it all the time when I was playing. The music stuck with me the most I think. Then 2 (4) was released and I put a lot of time into that one. Once 3 (6) came out then it was game over for anything else. That one became my favourite game of all time.

[@mhchx3]

Ever since the first time I've played this game, I always go to Ogres then Captains to level up, it's such a great way to power up early

[@MrVariant]

Yeah it helps to know different strategies too. Dash to mysidia on chocobo forest just below Kashuan once you have money from captain flame bows, start unarmed rather than buy crappy initial weapons (even mithril is pretty bad compared to the cheap 8000 Gil power staff or 5000 Gil ice bow in Mysidia). Dunno how anyone could take time to level 16 toad or double shielding as it's forever. I just equipped ancient sword/sleep blade on non-dominant hand and status doesn't seem to have an accuracy dip, and they hit more often I think though damage is low as you want to dual wield and it creates a status effect should enemy survive. Also prolongs battle for quicker sword growth. Am impressed you knew farming strategies from your first playthrough. I just learned a lot today lol, and I'm not even including the video.

Older gamer here. The original Final Fantasy wasn't only my first in the series. It wasn't even just my first RPG.

Which I beat first, then FINALLY completed the first one. And, yes, I was equally stuck on the Lodestone Cave. I hadn't learned the cheese strats involving non-metal equipment, then switching weapons mid-fight when the restriction was lifted. You could say that the Dark Elf was the bane of my early RPG existence.

Carry on. 5:26 Noting here that in all versions, Maria does 1.25x damage with bows, but in the NES original this is amplified even more if she's in the back row (and takes even less damage-also has a ten percent chance of evading any attack), Guy and Firion have similar damage amplifiers, though they're significantly less, but Guy is best with either a sword or an axe, and Firion with a sword or a spear (but a spear is best suited for a back row character). Leon's best weapon is either the spear or the axe. 5:36 Maria is the most proficient with all magic, Firion with destruction, Guy with restoration, and Leon... is best to have for alteration type spells (barriers and such-Haste/Slow/etcetera). 7:46 Warp, ah yes, Banish/Escape. I've found that this is one spell that Leon is really good with, but with any of the others aside from Minwu, it's absolute trash. It's better used as a field move. Blink/Fade, now that's a great spell for Maria and for Leon. Problem: takes too long to cast and misses easily. 9:22 Maria deals more damage with a bow. That Flame Bow would rip through the Captain's defenses. 11:06 Evac/Teleport is indeed more accurate, but damn slow to cast. Only Maria should learn this as even Leon has a hard time with it. Minwu...eh. Sure. One of his/their best spells. 12:20 Dual-wielding shields? Yeah. Just don't forget to unequip them later. I didn't know about the minigame.

I think the last time I played FF2 (PS1), I maxed the unarmed stats for the three starter characters before doing much of anything & laughed like mad as they all got in touch with their "inner Kenshiros" once unarmed got to level 16. Also, first Final Fantasy for me was FF1 (NES).

[@Neocharm]

My first was the FF Mystic Quest on the SNES. Hooked from that moment on.

[@asaacisimov8621]

Someone else! I thought I was the only one.

[@arrestedeffort]

The way I have my party set up on my most recent run (on the PSP version, though I've played through the PS1 version and the GBA version before and tried the Famicom version) is this: Firion as my black mage, Maria as my tanky fighter/red mage, and Guy as my white mage, with the guest characters just being along for the ride. All three are frontline characters, all being maxed in shields, swords, axes, spears, unarmed, and agility, with a few other skills/stats maxed for each of them.

[@chocapic2373]

My dude, I LOVE this series. Major respect for all the work you put into those videos.

[@snarkygamer]

This was very fun to watch. I do want to note this doesn’t work on the pixel remaster editions sadly, as shields now do damage even when dual wielding, and the early Mysidian enemies are gone from that spot.

[@bling0holic]

Me: *Watching the CG after a decades worth of time apart* Wow, my favorite Final Fantasy! Not Firion, Not Guy, Not Maria and Leon! Did this on emulator back when, with turbo... literally unstoppable, though this game is like Romancing SaGa for Final Fantasy xD

[@mistersomaru]

which is interesting, because the SaGa crew worked on this one.

[@bling0holic]

@@mistersomaru Kinda figured that was the case, didn't play FFII until after playing SaGa Frontier 1/2 (SaGa Frontier 2 especially), the difficulty just keeps getting harder and harder lol

[@lacreatura4737]

Technically this game walked so Romancing SaGa could run.

[@roymerkel8008]

you probably don't need it because of how over powered you are by the end, but curse status caused by the curse spell you skipped is actually pretty powerful itself because it completely tanks enemy mobs physical stats.

[@MissOaky]

I remember the Dawn of Souls version where I spent so much "leveling" up everyone that before I got the snowcraft even, everyone was running high 6k hp and max level cures. But I never got Toad so my first playthrough I missed the minigame altogether.

[@OnlyOneEliteGamer]

My first Final Fantasy was Crystal Chronicles. I remember being about 4 years old playing it on GameCube or something. Excited for the remaster!

[@gladue891]

Thank you for your time. You’ve inspired me to replay some of my favourites. Once again.

[@keenancloete7130]

This video reminded me why I love FF2 so much lol. When I get Minwu I'd usually grind to get Holy for him and Firion early on. Not even to mention Berserk and Thieves gloves. Thank you for this video.

[@ivanbluecool]

Seeing these makes me want to just get a game and play the first part to become insanely overpowered. Tales of xillia 2 I did that ealry and paid off that big debt early so I wanna try it on other to as well

[@Primalliquid92]

go for it! some games become interesting when you do it.

[@JoeBee9]

I use an alternative strategy to get overpowered and defeat any enemy you can access before the Scott quest. Simply go barehanded on all three party members and your damage spikes higher and higher as you gain proficiency. When you reach 3+, you can take on the ogres, land turtles, etc. Reach 5+ and you can take on the Captains within two rounds, 7+ will allow you to handle the enemies far to the north, and 8+ gives you enough attack for Mysidia's enemies as well as the extremely powerful Ghosts and Vampire Girls (although curse and especially confuse/charm is still a huge b**ch). You can raise HP just by how hard enemies will hit you as they will take most of your HP but you will kill them quickly too. No magic grinding required whatsoever. Tried in the PSP, Pixel Remaster, and NES versions and it works. You can even take out Black Flans as Critical Hits will take a chunk of their HP out while also fast-levelling your bare handed skill up to 13. You don't need white magic either. Just use potions, hi-potions, and eventually Cottages to heal. You'll get enough gil in these fights to get 99 of each with ease.

[@Chibi-Luka]

I've never played FF2 but I have never been so insta ready in all my life! This is like Desgaea levels of broken! 👀

[@Primalliquid92]

FF2 is amazing and i HIGHLY suggest playing it.

[@Santrial]

You got me to play FFX again for the fifth time, and now with this, I'll probably go play this little gem again.

[@zaxon810]

FF9 was my first FF game and it's still my favorite FF game, followed by FF10 not too far away from it! (Currently playing FF10 on Switch doing the engame grind! :D)

[@Dolf9271986]

Cheers man, great video! I specifically remember owning this on the GBA (Dawn of Souls), exploiting the HELL out of leveling (attacking self, casting magic, healing) my stats like crazy and getting TROUNCED by the Emperor because of it. He was actually so fast that I could only get a few strikes in before I was obliterated, and seemed to be on a constant string of attacks.. Crazy to watch Guy, with 6,000+ HP, annihilated within 10 seconds of the fight starting. Funny enough, I never beat him and never played it again. Maybe I should, this version looks gorgeous!

[@Geheimnis-c2e]

Use the blood sword. Assuming you didn’t give it to Ricard so the Ultima Weapon is easier to kill.

[@leargamma4912]

You could grind HP and stamina.... or you could play it like any other RPpG plus using the teleport spell

[@MrCATgpt]

I'd love to see one of these for Breath of Fire 3. Before adulthood run.

[@ChaoticHoly]

The problem with early grinding in Breath of Fire III & IV is that you hurt your stats doing so. The early Masters you can learn from are decent for the early game, but the stat bonuses on each level-up they provide aren't nearly as impressive as most later Masters.

[@jamesmayo9533]

My first ever Final Fantasy was actually X. I'm currently playing through it again after watching your overpowered video for that one. You inspired me.

[@deadNdivine12]

FF: Tactics the war of the lions was my first game haha it was great.

[@EndlessReturner]

Thank you for your guide. It made playing through the pixel remastered version so much more enjoyable and easy !

[@blazerpggamer5516]

i never did played this one now i want too ... Great video!!!

[@Primalliquid92]

absolutely should, its an amazing gem of a game

[@obscurity3027]

I still remember renting FF4 on the SNES from the local video rental store when I was 12 yrs old (it was titled Final Fantasy II in those days). I made it to the Baigan battle but couldn’t defeat him before I needed to return the game. Ever since that weekend, I’ve been a massive final fantasy fan. I can’t wait for Rebirth! FF7 was released the year I graduated high school, so I spent a lot of college nights playing FF7 instead of studying!

[@justinjohnson2685]

This is an awesome vid and I had a ton of fun doing this grind! Cant wait to start the next one! Thank you you for all your hard work and for making this vid!

[@MYCMESSIAH]

A trick to save gil at the Inn after grinding is to have enough MP to actually cure all members before hitting up the Inn. You'll only pay gil to replenish MP which will only costs you hundreds instead of thousands deep into your grinding.

[@Oksenholt]

11:56 I kept thinking my phone was vibrating until I realized it was coming from this video's audio. You must have had a call when recording the voiceover with your phone on vibrate. I bet you did this just to mess with us, right?...haha!

[@BigCrockDawg]

Final Fantasy II (IV) on SNES was my first, it literally changed my life. I’d love to see how overpowered you can get before (you pick the story point) on FFXV....I have ideas but you always blow away what I had in mind as the power threshold :) thanks for these videos

[@BlueMageDaisen]

FF4 on SNES is... not something you can really do this to It's by far the most linear game in the entire series, you will pretty much always have the exact same party, with the exact same skills, exact same equipment and exact same stats at any give point in a playthrough Your only real option for becoming overpowered would be a soul-less level up grind, and the very occasional rare drop It's honestly a shame because it's great game the first time you play it, but because every single playthrough is nigh identical, the experience just degrades each and every time The 3D versions may have more options though, with the Augment system

[@thezevi7632]

I wonder how overpowered you can get on a Kenshi, Slave Start.

[@amalgameexe]

Very, actually. To the point you can walk out, knock out Phoenix and toss him to the cannibals without anyone noticing

[@wohdinhel]

I had no idea about the matching game to begin with, but the toad secret is even more mind-blowing! People act like FF8 has the most esoteric gearing methods, but this is on a whole other order of magnitude.

[@thespacewarrior7126]

The first Final Fantasy game I played was 10, however my favorite in the series is 5.

[@1beatcher]

I always thought it was funny that the main villain in ff5 is a evil tree.

[@thespacewarrior7126]

1beatcher I thought it was funny that the main villain in the game is called ExDeath

[@Mr3DLC]

We can all agree that 13 sucked

[@thespacewarrior7126]

Damien Knox I’ve haven’t played any of the final fantasy games past 10

[@1beatcher]

@@Mr3DLC I agree with you, and can we agree on that Snow is one of the worst (or the worst) FF character?

[@johnschwartz1641]

I started with the first Final Fantasy on the NES, and still have fond memories of staying up late navigating dungeons with the help of Nintendo Power's strategy guide.

[@krislynn5965]

Well, you've inspired me to play some FF2 again. It's been so damn long.

[@joepike8773]

Final fantasy 8 was my first thats what made me love the games

[@iTzTraffy]

My first Final Fantasy was FF8 without knowing it was FF, my „real“ first with knowing I’m playing a FF and knowing what I’m doing was 7

[@Primalliquid92]

yea i think 7/8 is probably going to be alot of peoples answers, they were the first truly "big" FF titles on PS1

[@florianweber6914]

Mine was also 8. Propably one of the worst to start with thanks to the way magic and levels work, especially if you are just ten years old

[@iTzTraffy]

Florian Weber Yep! I was even younger (I think 7-8), playing my older brothers safe and was just fucking confused with everything 😂

[@bronysaiyan5236]

8 became my fav cuz of the junction lol made my team immortal and laugh at bad breath but i can see what you mean by the leveling and separate magic stocks

[@TheBookOfJawn]

Final Fantasy 4. I used to watch my friend play it everyday after school and when he finally finished it he let me borrow it. Unfortunately the cartridge lost the ability to save so we had to leave the system running for days at a time. We probably racked up hundreds of hours in it. And let me tell you thunderstorms were a true nightmare. We lost multiple late game runs due to power outages. Good times.

[@themayorbear87]

Final fantasy 1 on the NES. I was young. I thought Garland was the end boss, since a credit type sequence played after rebuilding the bridge.

[@ZeldawolffangZX]

My first FF game was FF9, man do I love that game.

[@Sum2k3]

My first Final Fantasy was Final Fantasy 8 and it is on par with final fantasy X for my personal favorites.

[@Primalliquid92]

just for the comment about 10 i think we can be best friends.

[@skyfernandez2958]

I cant say it any better

[@PC-ni6bp]

Its not for everyone for sure, but its nice to see some people still getting some joy from this game

[@Sunrie]

Ff2 is my favorite to break

[@StairFacts]

Oh shit yes! My favorite Final Fantasy game! I remember trying this farming method myself way back when on a replay, it's really funny to just breeze through the game like this. I wish this game would get more appreciation honestly, I hope more people give it a fair shake!

[@stormlands]

You shuld do twitch while doing the grind we can keep you with company. :D

[@Primalliquid92]

that is what im going to do for future grinds :)

[@mrfreddorenton]

My first Final fantasy was 12. It was my jump into combining skills and abilities to win big (thanks bubble)

First time I've seen that CG. Had no idea Maria was so.. gifted.

[@kyubbiman2255]

MDB told me to leave a comment for the algorithm so her you go. We appreciate the work that goes into this for we ll understand the call and necessity of the grind.

[@damagedcatdad]

My first FF game was FFX-2🤣🤣🤣 my little 7yr old self saw that ugly Western cover art at Blockbuster and was like "YES" the opening cinematic of realEmotion changed my life forever.

[@derekmoore2308]

lol me 2

[@cereyza]

same!!! FFX-2 was my second game after FFX but it's my favorite one.

[@marcosdheleno]

people like to bash x-2 but seriously? that game is actually incredible, ALOT of decision making, that does change the world, multiple endings, ALOT of customization(unfortunately not very good equipment system). it was basically mass effect before mass effect.

[@xmakoheart]

god yes, x-2 is one of my favorites, i don't care what anyone says. it's such a satisfying game to play, the battle system is incredible.

[@SolusEmsu]

My first FF game was FF2SNES. I still have it, and it still works. I have lost the save files over the years due to old battery save tech, but I still have the working cart and I can play it!

[@TheAuron32]

this should be good and interesting, given FF2s "unique" leveling system... i was right, this WAS a good watch :) and my first RPG let alone FF game was FF7, totally opened the world of games to me, was previously a Sega kid and only really knew sonic and few beat em ups.

[@beezusHrist]

Final Fantasy II (actually Final Fantasy 4) was my first Final Fantasy game. The overworld theme has been stuck in my head ever since.

[@merchuyoi]

My first ff was IX.

[@9hamos8]

I'm always getting everything max at the very beginning. I love it and it makes the most sense of every RPG.

"SNES version" wat

[@tubittrigun7823]

My very first Final Fantasy games wasn't called Final Fantasy, it was titled Mystic Quest. You should do a video on it. Truly a gem.
