Phantasy Star IV: Using low-level Chaz with a Shadwblade - proof of concept

This game is Phantasy Star IV for the Sega Genesis. This video is a proof of concept for whether you can abuse a programming error to cause a very low-level character to do extreme damage with a weapon called the Shadwblade. This is being investigated as it may become a useful strategy for a future tool-assisted speedrun (TAS).

It works.

Although I knew about this, I wasn't sure it was useful for anything. Thanks to Solon for bringing it to mind again.
