Many of the Final Fantasy games use a system that allows characters to perform powerful attacks when they have taken a set amount of damage, such as the "Limit Break" system of Final Fantasy 7. Although less famous than limit breaks, Final Fantasy 6 also has a similar system known as "Desperation Attacks" that only occur when a character is near death during combat. These attacks are always much more powerful than a standard attack and even most combat spells.
Instructions
1. Equip the party member you want to perform a desperation attack with the "True Knight" relic. This isn't a strict requirement for performing the attack, but it will make the desperation attack more likely to occur as that party member will be taking more damage during the course of combat.
2. Walk around any area where random battles can occur at any point in the game. You do not need to be at any specific location or have any specific characters in the party to use a desperation attack.
3. Enter combat repeatedly without healing the character that you want to perform the .
4. Allow the character to be reduced to 1/8th of their maximum hit point total. For example, if Locke has 100 total hit points, let him take damage from an enemy until he is reduced to 20 hit points or less.
5. Keep the character within the 1/8th range of hit points, using minor healing spells or items as necessary. Have the character choose their normal physical attack each turn instead of using magic or any special abilities. Each time they use a physical attack while in this hit point range, they have a 6.25% chance to perform a desperation attack. The more the fight with low hit points, the better the chances that the desperation attack will occur.
