Final Fantasy VI Bosses

Malboro Menace will just try to take you down with status-inducing attacks such as the bloody obvious Bad Breath and the surprising Diabolic Whistle and some physicals. A rare !Tentacle sets Poison, so that's not too bad. Whenever you attack the thing, it has a 1/3 chance it'll counter with a Blaster attack on a random character, so that sucks. Also, whenever you kill the Malboro Menace, two appear; when you kill the last one of those two, four appear. That's a multitude of Malboro. Luckily, Malboro Menace is vulnerable to instant death attacks, which allows is to circumvent both troubles; target with Malboro Menace with either Banish, Shin-Zantetsuken or some such and you should never see more than the initial one. Note that only instant death attacks that stall counterattacks work like that; Malboro Menace will be more than happy to multiply after being successfully struck by a Death spell. Expand Full Strategy
