Hello. I am a newbie at FFVI and i have a question. After the part in ZoZo in the WoB, your party splits into 2 groups, one group of 2 and another of 4. I had a party of locke and celes with whom i progressed...all the way through the magitek party and raised their levels 6 levels in the process. for some reason i think iwas supposed to have more than 2 characters through the factory because by the end i only had locke, who really isnt that great of a fighter and it took me 5 tries to get through the factory? Did i miss something about only having one character because all of the walkthroughs have 4?

I feel sorry for you having had to go through the factory with just Locke and Celes. I don't remember exactly how it works, but I believe before you leave Zozo after you've beaten it, you're allowed to add two more characters to the Locke/Celes party (I think it even brings up the screen for you). If I'm not mistaken, you can also change characters by visiting them on the airship as well. All you do is talk to one of them, and it will ask if you want to change party members. This is a pretty standard procedure throughout the rest of the game, but if you didn't know about it, it's very helpful to discover. Most times the game will specify how many parties with how many characters you need to form, so pay close attention to the numbers. Hope this helps.

Heh. Well you have Lock and Celes by default, but you could take two more characters with you. Well done though, getting threw the cart scenario is fairly impressive. After ZoZo you see a screen with Locke and Celes in the bottom corner, and the rest of your characters are on the top, you could select two more to put in the party.

Yeah, I barely post.

Ha. Thanks, i thought something was wrong and you are correct about the mines though, it took me a few tries to get past No. 128, but i came up with the strategy of using dragoon boots and some bolt 2 to take him out easy. I guess next time ill have to be more careful about wasting that much time.

Make sure you read carefully. I remember it saying that you can accompagny Celes and Locke with two other characters. There are other parts in the game like things, so read carefully, or you will be wasting some more time....

That sucked, having to go thru the factory with just 2 characters. i brought Edgar and Cyan/Sabin for the Strength. Gau Sucks in my opinon. no offense

Wow. There is a lot of people on this forum you don't want to hear you say that. :-p

I usually take the maximum number of characters along, so here I had Locke, Celes, Edgar, and Sabin. That made getting through the entire scenario a complete breeze, and I had little difficulty getting through Number 024 and Number 128. On the other hand, though, that's pretty amazing that you made it through the factory with only two characters and made it through the cart ride with only one (Locke), who himself isn't a good attacker either.

You talk about the factory, but what about the opera? It all started in Zozo, so
you must have gone to the opera too.

--------------------

I want this world to change for good. I want to see Final Fantasy, the world of swords and magic.

oh ya. the opera was a MAJOR pain. those rats were annoying, and ultros was SO annoying with his Imp and Muddle attacks. the second time through i equipped a ribbon, and he was quite a bit easier. i also had a health supply of potions too.

It is acctualy possible to go thru the factory WITHOUT Locke and Celes...Simply return to the airship and hit watever the clear party button is. *note that locke and celes will still have the arrow under them indicating that they are supposed to be present*

Well, what happens when you get to the end of the factory where the scene with the required characters takes place? Surely they don't warp in out of nowhere? If I'd only known, I probably wouldn't have taken them, though this time through I've actually favored Celes over many other characters because her physical attack is decent with the Atma Weapon...

I never compleated the factory without them, though I did remove them and get through it up until the final scene. I didnt want to find out so I wussed out and returned the the ship and put em back in.
