Yeah as soon as tantcles used your name in that video it felt like he was avenging daf for all the bahamut kills youve done. Fully felt personal lol😂😂😂
Ironically, you can't get encounters in the world map with the "Mist Continent" text on screen, so the run to ice cavern is the one bit you don't need to stutter step on 😅
Yo, good job, primal. This was one hell of a run. I never knew kuja's dmg was based off party lvl. I love watching these. I always learn something new about these great games.
1:16:47 The Accuracy+ passive completely removes the hit-chance calculation and guarantees every attack lands, so once you have that, for only 2 magic stones you never need to worry about missing again, even with Darkness. Bright Eyes becomes a waste of stones at that point.
Glad you did this, I thought about trying to do 9 damageless and just seemed like a logistical nightmare so happy that the spirit is alive with this run!
yea i thought about damageless at first but realised it would take so much grinding early on that we'd basicly be 99 before the end of disc 1 and still fail because of beatrix
@@Primalliquid92 Yeah honestly I was struggling to figure out black waltz 1 without an excessive amount of grinding. Would Beatrix be possible with a powered up frog drop or am I getting that wrong?
@@DamonCarter-i5p You're absolutely right. I was thinking you could get around this by already being at 1hp going into the fight, but that would require taking damage somewhere else so wouldn't work. Brain fart by me
Man you put so much effort in these so thank you for doing so. Keeps me entertained for quite some day. But I'm 100% sure these things aren't my cup of tea. I already struggle simply finishing games, because I get easily distracted by other games from my pile of shame 🤣
I do love the steal mechanic in ff9, it's just so rewarding compared to other games that really only give you junk items. All in all its just a slight bump increase for a weapon or armor that you can buy in the immediate area after the next but it's a nice way to get a power boost to make the next boss fight easy.
There's a little trick you can do with the frogs - if you always leave 3 frogs, the chances of them all being the same gender are very low. This way you don't have to waste time checking the gender of every frog.
Why would you check the gender? You can clearly see the gender by the stripe. Female frogs have a black stripe running the length of their bodies, which males lack. Females also have red feet while males have yellow.
Never expected Necron to be the seemingly easier part 😮 When I saw the remaining video time at Kuja, I expected the run to end. Greatly done, though, Primal!
Great Video and congratz For other challenge ideas maybe Dragon Quest VIII or XI without healing. A Persona game without healing or something with FF12 The zodiac age
The green snake is so easy. You can make it so he never attacks. Blizzara with Vivi, Zidane steals, Garnet attacks. In that order. Boss will coil, and by the time he uncoils your ATB will be full. Repeat. 0 damage.
Can you do a challenge run featuring dragon quest 8? I don't know if it's even possible but I would definitely enjoy that just as much as I enjoyed this! It took me three separate days but I did watch the entire video! Loved it Primal!
Every time I see FF9 in english I'm happy that Garnets name after the Ice cavern is different in german. There she is called Lili instead of Dagger which is a way better name imo
26:50 Somebody go their prizes mixed up. The coral ring is what you get if Zidane is KO'd in the first battle. If Zidane wins (relatively easy as long as you plan your route ahead of time and defeat Zaghnol with Zidane still alive), you get a bunch of money, which is the only reward you can make use of in this run. So you should have had Zidane win.
not true, you can get the corel ring with zidane still alive, and 5k gil really isnt important at all, i can (and did) make use of the corel ring for abilities, the only thing i couldnt do in this run was use it agaisnt mobs that can attack with thunder element
I would love to see a ff9 no gill challenge. It would have no chocobo hot and cold, no synthesis, no inns, no buying items. Which would really cut down what abilities are available
Something suspicious about all these good steals first go lol :D, I have had that good RNG before as well. Demon mail first go that's like a 0.8% chance :O
Fun story about why I never beat it till years after initial play through, I misread the text in the game and when I entered the portal towards the final boss I took "we can't turn back now" literally and did not know you could turn back and leave the portal to go buy and heal up, so I got to the final boss with no healing items, no magic tags and all my characters were out of mana, you can survive MOST of it with just autoregen but the final boss will cast necrosis that will 100% zombie your team and then that will kill your team instead if you don't have any tags to remove it(and didn't 100% all abilities on characters)
Here would be a fun idea: FF2 no healing. Just having HP in the red all game and seeing how fast your HP and defense grow. Also far as I remember no forced healing checkpoints.
I know it's sort of possible in FF7, The Necrosis mod is a version of the game where every character starts out with 9999hp and 999mp and can never heal hp or mp (not even story heals/inns). Death is permanent and if Cloud dies the game is over since the final fight with Sephiroth is impossible. The mod also removes Shield materia, hp and mp absorb materia, and all sources.
I would argue, within the specified rules, that equipping armor or accessories that absorb magic spells isnt really healing since its a passive buff not an active heal. Felt like that wouldve given more dynamic to the run.
I'm not sure what ff games would be good for a no healing run, the newer ones from 12 onwards manually heal you whenever you touch a save or from 13 just beating a battle. Some part of me wants to know if beating ff9 or another with starting/weakest equipment is possible but 9, I think, would be interesting as that influences the stats when you level up and i wonder if even max pevel characters would struggle throughout the game with starting equipment
Great vid as always man. Quick Question - i've. been following all of you pixel remaster guides and because of you i've 100 percented. 1-4! Will you be returning to finish 5 and 6?
Since you're doing a collab with Tantaclees, and he got most of his attention doing L.O.D content, you should do a Legend of Dragoon no-healing run next... if thats even possible 😅😂
It's Tantarian, RNG hates you. Also, yes you've got fira but had you dealt with hot and cold, you could have bio instead, weakness and stronger in general, getting more damage in, in case it's not enough before it closes again, making you find it again, risking more damage.
Haven't made it past the intro so I don't know if you do this or not, but the idea of not being able to reload until a full party wipe would be so evil. I mean reloading a past save means healing XD
Lucky seven can be only used if your HP ends in a 7 then it deals either 7, 77, 777 or 7777 dmg if zidane hp isnt ending in 7 lucky seven will do only 1 dmg. Dunno where you got that info from.
I support your wish to buy a boat as long as I'm allowed to come aboard because the best kind of boat is somebody else's boat.
What if the boat is a one man raft?
We are all in the same boat and luckily it's not ours.

geez i love this game and grind the helll out of it but you are the true god here respect
The rng gods felt bad for you. They thought you might be a new player because you weren't healing. So they gave you all the good steals.
oh i wish, would make stealing from hilgigas so much easier lol
Knew after 10 you were going to try it again with another ff but I am so thrilled you picked 9
heck yea! ill try to do them all
Perma-death is a brutal rule
Shoutout for the long vid, helped me stay awake while I was on 24 hour duty 🙌.
Great Video and congratz

id like to think that somewhere in the youtube universe there are 2 channels called "PrimalSolid" and "PrimalSolidus"

That was really cool! Ff7 no heal would be pretty cool.

FF8 no heal run next for sure! The final boss rush will be, in a word, horrendous
I really like what you are doing. Keep it up. Have a wonderul day!
Good luck
That battle animation is so smooth.
yea moguri did great witht he last update
I don’t blame you for not trying to steal the flute, it takes an hour on a normal playthrough lol.
Great job!
The fact you said "who replaces Twitter" in the script, but then didn't name Eiko "X" was a missed opportuniry
oh damn i cant believe i didnt think of that
So cool what u did to make games we've played 100s of tines more fun and challenging!

Wait, is THAT why I never get random encounters in evil forest these days!? How am I still learning new things about this game!?

Great vid as always man. Quick Question - i've. been following all of you pixel remaster guides and because of you i've 100 percented. 1-4! Will you be returning to finish 5 and 6?
very very slowly yes, part 1 for 5 is out i just havnt been able to sit down and do more yet
Lucky Seven can deal 7, 77, 777, or 7777 damage but only if the last digit of Zidane HP is 7. Thats why it only did 1 damage on Earth Guardian :)
Maybe Disgaea (insert number here) without healing? That or ff12

Lucky 7 only works when your hp ends in 7. That’s why it only kept dealing 1 damage.
100 hours to get through disk 1? Nice to see you play it casually for a change
I laughed harder than I should have done here
Do ff6 next it would be fun with 16 characters because it would force you to use characters you never thought of using before.
