Final Fantasy IV After Years Phase Knuckle RNG Force Drop

Phase knuckle

Discovered by Drewsol

- New Moon, battle speed 6, save at depths 20
- Reset at the save point
- Go and walk around floor 19 until your first battle which should be the 2 feet


- You only need 1 Rare Band for the Phase Knuckle to drop. Without the Rare Band, however, all you'll get is an Elixir.

- Here's the Multipliers I had for everyone while attempting to do all this (do note, however, that all 5 members of my group are Lv.99):

Ceodore: 17x Attack, 14x Defense
Ursula: 16x Attack, 15x Defense
Kain: 18x Attack, 16x Defense
Edge: 16x Attack, 9x Defense
Yang: 16x Attack, 13x Defense

Important Stats :
- Levels 99

Equipment and Party Positioning :
3 Front, 2 Back, from top to bottom
- Ceodore : Ragnorak, all adamant except rare band
- Ursula : Queen's Whip, adamants except rare band
- Kain : ultima weapon, all adamant except rare band
- Edge : mutsunikami, rising sun, adamants except rare band
- Yang : 2 shield all adamant except rare band

Note: Ursula can have bare knuckle and rear ring works the same

- The battle isn't as clear cut as you'd expect it to be. For some reason, even though I have all the specs correct, the battle still doesn't play out as it should. After further testing this, I found out a few reasons why sometimes this method doesn't work.

Firstly, even though you supposedly can mash through the fight and get the drop to work, sometimes you get into a situation where 2 or more members get a turn presumably at the same time. In reality, one person is literally getting their turn a split second before the other. This can happen with Kain and Yang and seriously mess up the RNG for you.

Secondly, the remaining foot can sneak in a turn close to the end of the battle and attack someone for damage (usually Ceodore). This screws the whole RNG up too!

The easiest way to remedy this, I've found, is by doing this at Battle Speed 6 if you are having the above problems. Also, here's the battle order that works, from what I've found. The damage may differ if you aren't at Lv.99 with the exact set-up, however. The drop might still work either way so long as this battle order is adhered to.

- Kain attacks top foot. [4805 damage]
- Edge attacks top foot. [4886 damage]
