Thank you to Ikazuchi for suggesting this Dragoon fight. It was very rare and it too me hours to trigger though. th-cam.com/users/Toshinegawafeatured There were also a few others who commented on my Ramza having a different appearance as well. Thank you all again for the viewers and members as well!
The Dragoon is definitely my favorite melee unit. Nothing like playing like Kain from Final Fantasy IV. Once you master the class, you can just jump all over the board.
Totally. I gotta replay the FF4 remake and the After Years remake as well sometime. 👍And playing as Kain in Dissidia 012 was a real treat with his Jump ability too.
@@benjaminbomberry3782 Nice good stuff. I mostly play on my PC so I'm looking at some Steam versions. I did play FF4 when it was rerleeased in some collection on the PS1 it was a great time.
For all of the replays I've done of this game, I've never tried doing a run making a party of other FF Characters (like a Kain dragoon). That seems like a fun idea!
One thing I never knew about FFT: A battle layout will depend on which direction you come from on the map. Example: If you come from Golgorund execution site to Barius Valley you can possibly encounter a Tiamat. That’s the only way to get that rare battle.
back when this game first came out getting tiamats at barius hill was like a huge secret, i was young but this came out like almost as a release title for the ps1, i remember one of my neighbors swaring he saw hydras at barius hill, and an older kid kept saying no i doubt it i beat the game this and that, and then we actually got one. I remember everyone thinking deep dungeon was the only place to get them
Man I never knew that, I dip back into this game every so often, its very time consuming process I find doing a playthrough. Never knew that about the encounters
The hardest fight I had in FFT was that where there was an army of chocobos of all colors. Given the lv scale, how fast they are and the long range ability of the colored ones, that one was hell.
I came to the comments hoping I’d find someone who experienced this as well! It was shortly after launch of the game, but I remember a random battle where there were a dozen of them at start. They obliterated me. Only saw it once and never again.
Hi thank you for the comment and question. So I messed around and modded my own save file with Lion Editor to give Ramza what he has and his look. Hope that answers your question. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!
Four hours?!! I believe all areas, from each direction, have SOME form of "rare" battle. I'd be amazed to see a few others. However, I do understand if they take THAT LONG to trigger, it's not really worth the attempt.
Some are really cool and some aren't according to the guides. So I may just go after the cool rare battles or some that look appealing and interesting and perhaps eventually all very rare battles lol. It did take a long time but it was worth it in the end. A lot of people enjoyed this one. 👍
Hey, you found it! Yeah, it's really a shame that these random Human Guest units don't offer to join. With how ridiculously rare some of these unique battles are, you should get some sort of reward for encountering them. Like the Guns from the rare Chemist and Orator fight
Thanks for the comment and suggesting this. Although this took many hours lol. And I agree. If there was a Chocobo and Swine who offer to join us. I feel more of these guests should have that same option.
Human enemy units that appeared on random battle can be recruited by using orator skill change of heart or something (forgot the skill name). The skill that turn enemy a traitor. The hit rate is so low though
Thank you so much Lady Loki for the wonderful comment! I am glad you enjoy my work and the videos. More FFT always to come. I have a lot more ideas and such I want out.
im a huge fan of final fantasy tactics which is why this showed up for me on youtube...but i dont understand how ramza has sword play is it the psp version where the dark knight is a class or is this using final fantasy hacktics?
@@J7Jase I don’t know what version you are playing but I used to farm the rare squires on Mandalia Plains in the first chapter, invite them, strip them of their gear and then dismiss. This was on the psone 1997 version.
It’s been a while since I’ve played FFT, more than a decade in fact. Back then I had beaten the game at least 3 times, (the first was my rather noobish younger self using a GameShark attachment for the ps1) and I never knew about set encounters, let alone rare ones like this! I’ll have to play this game again soon and see how different it is with my greater gaming experience!
Oh wow can always play it on emulator now if you really want lol. But that awesome and no worries. It is a single player game after all so it's all about having fun first and foremost. There is always something fun and interesting. And nice! Sounds great 👍👍
Dope video, and I appreciate you continuing to make content for this amazing game. I guess I'll add a couple of notes for anyone else in the comments interested. This battle is only available in Chapter 4, so if you go searching for it before then, you'll be searching for a long time. Second, funnily enough, this is NOT actually the Mandalia Plains special rare battle, its a fun and unique, but still regular, battle! The actual special battle for Mandalia includes having multiple (potentially, its random) Guest Dragons against a Red Dragon and several Blue Dragons. This battle is also from Brigand's Den and only available in Chapter 4.
this area also has that dragons fight, i lost my first time there lmao totally wasnt ready for dragons i was trying to grind jp at a high lv and i though this area would be SAFE lol also i got this dragoon fight. i was farming here a lot and i feel like it takes less time to enter from this direction than the others when you are moving back and forth idk if it is or not just feels like it. after getting rekt i eventually came back and reis dragon charmed one of the blue dragons into my party he was lv 99 a few lvs over us
That isn't a rarity thing. In the original PS1 version, having a FF8 save file on your memory card would give a chocobo as the first pet. I don't know if you have to look at the file from the save menu, but that and a couple other games had content in Legend of Mana unlocked by having save files on your memory card.
Ok, there's clearly something I'm missing out here. How is it possible for Ramza to have All Swordskill techniques? I've played only the PS1 version of this game, but I've finished it more than 10 times as it is my favourite tactics game ever, and it is not possible to get those in the PS1 version. In the PSP version, I've only heard there are like some new jobs, but that's all. Please, somebody enlighten me xD.
Yeah agreed there are a few issues about the game very few though. My main one is that is the special characters pretty much have no story after they join the party (for the most part.)
@@J7Jase amazing been playing this game for 25 years beating 3 times each one different and not from a second save, I don’t know how many new games and fresh characters I’ve made but I’ve never seen this before
"And it is all... Tactics Ogre." Speaking of Ogres, I was just thinking about how strong Let Us Cling Together / Reborn is in this category, for having a huge variety of alternate battle elements, elite & unique versions of both monsters & human opponents, and just tons of rich, awesome endgame content compared to FFT.
FFT was rushed and there were a lot of things cut like Delita's storyline. However, there is also the multiplayer co op and pvp that War of the Lions Remaster has which a lot of people did not experience. While I love Let Us Cling Together, FFT is just more enjoyable from the feel of it and its more fun. But both are masterpieces.
@@J7Jase in agreement about both masterpieces, and on the flip side of that coin as every iteration of LUCT is the definition of epic to me. Delita getting some more love woulda been wonderful!
Fft way better that luct. 100f of palace of the damned twice? Grinding the oricalcum and the deadelus pinions/racks for heavenly generals? No thanks, GameShark is the only way to make it bearable. Play the lion war mod for fft, that'll give you some endgame content
Dude, I remember a battle where I got totally PWNED by a team of Monks all wearing Gaia Gears and using Earth Fist. It sucked because every time they attacked, they wound up healing each other with their abilities. Still, they don't call it "Tactics" for nothing. I've been meaning to try that trick out myself. 😏
What you are saying isn't true. The only guests that will offer to join you from random battles is the Chocobo at Mandalia Plains and the Swine at Dorvauldar Marsh. Even if roster is full they will still try to offer to join.
@@J7Jase give him zalbag’s abilities too. edit: in fact change his base squire class to “heavenly knight” with zalbag’s abilities, orlandu’s, and all of the augmented squire abilities (wish, yell, cheer up, scream, and ultima)

It honestly is. The random rare battles are really really cool in this game
That one haunts my nightmares. I hadn't saved in like 4 hours when I got those Monks. It was brutal.
@@lens_hunter SPOOKY lol
I love your content. I'm a huge fan of FFT and you have shown me content that I didn't know existed. Keep it up J7 Jase
Thanks so much for this awesome comment! I love FFT with all my heart so I have a lot of things planned for it and a lot more.
This battle is even rarer than the duel between the Knight and the Minotaur. I never get it myself!
It is. This and the dragon one took me many hours to trigger.
The hardest fight I had in FFT was that where there was an army of chocobos of all colors.
Given the lv scale, how fast they are and the long range ability of the colored ones, that one was hell.
Oh yeah the ones at Finnath Creek and Balias Tor can be insane lol
I came to the comments hoping I’d find someone who experienced this as well! It was shortly after launch of the game, but I remember a random battle where there were a dozen of them at start. They obliterated me. Only saw it once and never again.
Endgame had the most randomly random random battles. I remember the calculator army and the ninjas that threw rare weapons.
Yes there are cool ones. I have a dedicated playlist

Hi thank you for the comment and question.
So I messed around and modded my own save file with Lion Editor to give Ramza what he has and his look.

@@azzamofficial1636 We were both talking about the guest units.
Back in my day we called it thieves fort
The first version I played of FFT was the PS1 version.
I ran into a monk in the Zeklaus Desert that had a unique portrait one time
Nice someone did show me a pic of that, was really cool to see
I absolutely love your work and videos J7Jase.. FFT has always been among my favorite games..🤩🤩💚💛🖤🤗🤗🤗

How did you get Ramza's sword play skills, through gamesharks?
Hi I used Lion Editor to change his secondary
How we can get "Sword Play" skill on Ramza ? is it mod or else ? And what version is this game on ?
FFT Patcher or Lion Editor should do the trick. War of the Lions PPSSPP emulator
It’s been a while since I’ve played FFT, more than a decade in fact.

There is always something fun and interesting. And nice! Sounds great 👍👍
where is the thumbnail artwork of the dragoon from? :^)
Shoot it's been a while, I forgot I could ask my friend to send it to me
I was curious how on the map hes wearing the 3rd version of the armor and in the battle hes wearing the 2nd
Good question so you can change his look on Lion Editor I did it myself because I dislike his Chapter 4 look lol
How did I manage to get this by accident, but it took me 5 hours trying to get the Swine rare guest battle
RNG is against me
Aww man a huge and clear example of Final Fantasy Tactics RNG. I know the Swine guest battle is very rare though.
How did Ramza learn Hallowed Bolt?
I gave it to him via save editor or modding tool
I never this random battle with guest Dragoons existed!
Same so many cool random battles especially on Mandala
Did you edit Ramsas appearance or something?
I did lol. I like his Chapter 2 and 3 look way better.
Dope video, and I appreciate you continuing to make content for this amazing game.

this area also has that dragons fight, i lost my first time there lmao totally wasnt ready for dragons i was trying to grind jp at a high lv and i though this area would be SAFE lol
also i got this dragoon fight. i was farming here a lot and i feel like it takes less time to enter from this direction than the others when you are moving back and forth idk if it is or not just feels like it. after getting rekt i eventually came back and reis dragon charmed one of the blue dragons into my party he was lv 99 a few lvs over us

How did you get ramza to have swordplay?
FFT patcher or lion editor
@@J7Jase FFT patcher or Lion editor? What is it and how do I get it?
@@codyrongish1209 You Google it.
I came across this battle while playing a couple days ago but didn't necessarily think anything of it.
There aren't too many guests in random battles and the chances of this one happening is slim. But if you are lucky you can encounter it
How can Ramza have skill Swordplay ?
It is possible through Lion Editor or FFT Patcher to give him these abilities
@@J7Jase nice info, thanks
There are a couple strange battles that can happen on this tile.
There are I have uploads of several cools one already.

It is a cool encounter. Never imagined seeing some other guests here but this area has some cool battles
Probably as rare as Chocobo as a starting pet in Legend of Mana. I had 3 friends back in the day and one of us had a Chocobo pet ;)

How your ramza has swordplay? :')

Remember when I got this. Was like whoa.
Yeah it's a very whoa moment lol so many cool battles!
The only thing I dislike about this game is when you get high level guest characters, but they get so few learned abilities as shown here.
Yeah agreed there are a few issues about the game very few though. My main one is that is the special characters pretty much have no story after they join the party (for the most part.)
Anybody ever get the ninja fight in aguray woods? It was nuts my entire team almost wiped
I have actually I show all the rare and special encounters in the game lol at least that I think are pretty cool
