I asked that question in May...in the meantime, I've subscribed to GameFAQs. Trust me, I know all about stupidity

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

The Collapse of Heaven and Earth

Celes and Terra casting Cure3/Life3/Haste2, Sabin BumRushing, and Mog jumping with Boots/Horn/Holy lance. Too easy to beat Kefka, I was too lazy to even bother with the Economizer, Offering, Crusader or Ultima and it was still over quick. Almost healed him back up just to hear the music for a while longer...

Celes - Illumia, best armor, generally the tank.
Setzer - I dunno why I put him here. He functioned as a healer unless he had a spare moment to use Fixed Dice.
Sabin - Bum Rush. Goes great with...
Gogo - ...to mimic it. He also used healing spells when Setzer couldn't.

Usually I draw the battle out (Kicking the crap outta Kefka... gotta love it) using my best chars (Sabin, Mog, Shadow, Strago)
But if I'm in a rush to see the endings I whip the Atma weapon at him, quick death for Kefky ^-^.

I usually just use my assault squad............

Edgar (Genji+Offering)
Terra (Dragoon Boots+Dragon Horn)
Celes (Quick+Ultima)
Locke (Whatever I Feel Like Doing, gosh!)

And, every once in a while I put in Cyan, because he rocks

Terra with morphing, the gem box, an un-glitched economizer, and Ultima

Celes with a hero ring, another un-glitched economizer, Quick, and Ultima

Strago with a hero ring, a third un-glitched economizer, and Grand Train

Cyan with a genji glove, the offering, the Sky Render, and the Strato

I'm not the hugest fan of leveling up, so I had only one character with Quick and none with Merton when I fought K-dog.

this is a blog mostly about comics and videogames
END SPOILER

I used the default three characters to defeat him, Celes, Setzer and Edgar, I equipped fixed dice with offering, Celes using Golem and cure 2 and Edgar using Kirin and hitting kefka with the Aura lance, but normally I use Setzer , Terra, Locke and Strago

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

"Its no cheating if you don't get caught"

Just beat him for the second time. Unfortunately, I hit 'save state load' instead of 'screenshot' and promptly missed the ending and noticed I'd lost a few weeks' worth of levelling and questing, having dropped from having 4 Lv99 characters and everyone else above 60 and having everything done to having just got all my characters in the WoR and being Lv74. Sucks to be me.

Anyhow, I beat Kefka with a team of Cyan, Gau, Terra and Gogo. Gogo was on X-Magic Ultima (2x9999 dealt)/Cure 3 duty, Terra was on attacking (2-3x 9999 dealt) and status recovery duty, Wind God Gau was damage dealing, and Cyan was Quadra Slicing as my main damage dealer. Heh, overlevelling. Can't go wrong.

The equipment I can remember -
Cyan - Genji Glove + Something else, Scimitar + Sky Render, Genji Armour.
Gau - Offering + Merit Award, Tempest, Snow Muffler.
Gogo - Economizer + Gem Box.
Terra - Genji Glove + Economizer, Atma Weapon, Illumina.

I'm so annoyed. My team was downright godly.

I´m the kinda guy who beefs my party up as much as possible before mauling the Big Boss of the game. So I simply use this strategy, ´course using my favourite party:

Edgar: Ultima x 2, Cure3
Sabin: Ultima, Bum Rush
Cyan: Cure3, Quadra Slice
Gogo: Mime, Ultima, Cure3

Commonly used Relics: Ribbon, Economizer & Gem Box

Edgar starts off with two Ultimas, which are mimicked by Gogo = Ultima x 4.
Sabin prepares with a Megalixir to counter the Fallen One attack.
During these attacks, Cyan starts loading up his SwdTech ´til it reaches 7 and mauls Kefka bigtime.
Next round, Edgar either uses Ultima x 2 again, or changes to Ultima & Cure3 when needed.
Gogo then mimicks that too, while Sabin either uses Ultima or Bum Rush and Cyan prepares for SwdTech: 7 again.
Phew!

"Wait!" he says...do I look like a waiter? - Kefka, Final Fantasy VI

hmm... just beat him for the second time, and it was far easier this time round (Gods i hate the ability Train! how do you get rid of that?!)
Terra casting double Ultima with Gem Box
Shadow throw whatever i have spare (or Ultima)
Sabin... Bum Rush!!! (or Ultima if i can't be bothered typing in the key combo)
Celes using Ultima as well

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

Yes... this world is filled with both Light and Darkness, though how long this delicate Balance will last I don not know.
