The slots are rigged. You can slow things down to a frame per hour and never get it.

MasterZed has an awesome document on this.

Just use an Echo Screen and you should be fine. -CSM

Huh? I don't get it...

I thought they were rigged, too.

Using an Echo Screen derigs Slots. Don't ask me why, it just does. GameFAQs and Master ZED say so. -CSM

Echo Screen doesn't 'derig' Slot. I could give a nice little tutorial on how and why, but it already exists and Silverlance linked to it.

I tried many times to get 7-7-7, but only I got that combination a couple of times. I believe that even if you know the right time for getting 7-7-7, the game don't let you do it that easily...its like getting 3 diamonds to do a Flash, you can't miss it if you get first a diamond ( actually there is a small chance to miss, sometimes you get Diamond-Diamond-Seven , and so there is a small chance to get 7-7-7 as well) . Just my thoughts and my experience.

Just a quick repost for people who don't bother to read the thread when someone already made a guide that answers everything. Have a nice weekend everyone smile.gif

The fact that the slots are rigged is true. I have only got the 7-7-7 combo a total of 4 times all the times I have played FFVI over and over again. Then when I found GameFAQ, it told me to use an Echo Screen to slow the slots down. I did and I ended up getting the 7-7-7 combo a total of 13 times a couple more than one time through FFVI. It REALLY does slow the game down and I don't know why. Probably just a glitch. cool.gif

Echo Screen doesn't slow the slots down, pausing freezes the slots so you don't need really good timing to get what you want. Echo Screen simply makes the RNG load up a favorable number for Joker Doom the next time it's accessed.

...It's not a glitch. It was simply something Square never prepared for because in order to figure it out, you would need to look at the code. There was no need to protect it further. You should really read the Slot guide to understand what's going on.

Speaking of the guide, the text version is pretty much finished. I'll upload it later after I get done editing the links section of the Sheet.

Use Echo Screen before you confirm the first 7.
