(Spoilers) What's new about VI Advance???
I recently have begun playing VI Advance and was wondering what's new in this game? I know that there are new espers and a new dungeon...what else? Anyone found anything cool/new/exciting about this edition of the classic game?

There is also a gauntlet mode in which you can fight game bosses in succession. That's about it.
The only noteworthy aspect of the game otherwise is that they fixed a few glitches in the original game like vanish/doom and the evasion glitch. |

There aint alot really. Mainly cosmetic changes e.g better translations plus the characters icon shows up everytime they speak.

Hmmm... does that mean that Vanish+X-Zone doesn't work either? I was kinda counting on that one for some battles in my low-level game = P

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOES!!! ;__; Dratts!
>.> I must rethink me strategies. What's up with the new Espers? Obviously, the earliest one you get that's different is a storyline Esper (Cait Sith...I'm sure Zero's happy) are there many more? Where do you get em from?

Cait Sith was a summon in the original SNES version of FFVI. It was just mis-translated to "Stray" in the North American release.

Re: (Spoilers) What's new about VI Advance???
Cactuar, Leviathan, Diablos and Gilgy (Gilgamesh) are all new espers. There are a lot of new weapons/changed names. There's an Apocolypse sword (that I'm not sure was in the original FFVI ) new armors...I haven't been to the two new dungeons but they sound a lot harder then Kefka's tower.

Re: (Spoilers) What's new about VI Advance???
You get the Apocalypse from beating one of the upgraded dragons, if I remember correctly. It's a new weapon. Although I guess there might be a way of obtaining it that I don't know.
Here's what the new weapons are off the top of my head: Apocalypse (sword for Terra) Save the Queen (sword for Celes) Zorlin Shape (dagger for Locke) God Hand (knuckle for Sabin) Longinus (spear for Edgar) Final Trump (cards for Setzer) Angel Brush (brush for Relm) Scorpion's Tail (mace for Gogo. Kill Bill reference?) I'm sure there's more, but I can't remember right now. I do know that if you want multiple copies of them, you can trade them in at the coliseum (each new weapon can be traded in for another of the weapons). |

Re: (Spoilers) What's new about VI Advance???
The Coliseum is actually where you obtain Gilgamesh.
There were some video clips that used hacking to put Leo, Kefka, Biggs, and Wedge into your party that were released when the game was first released, as there were doctored photos of Ghestal and Leo in the party. But that was just a poor rumor. |

Cool, that clears that one up!
Is he a good summon?

Re: (Spoilers) What's new about VI Advance???
Actually - the only time I've used summons so far was my fight with Atma Weapon on the FC. So I dunno.
I've been meaning to conjure him up though. = D

Re: (Spoilers) What's new about VI Advance???
He either does one of four attacks:
Excalibur- moderate damage Excalipoor- 1 damage... Masamune- very high damage Enkidu- Gilgy and Enkidu do a tag-team attack for heavy damage, but this is the rarest one and I've honestly never seen it before. Here's all of the new spells and Espers except for Gilgamesh's last attack. |
