FFIX E2PG Demo: Shell Dragon without Shiva

An alternative method of defeating Shell Dragon without Shiva. This was done using Path C setups, but not on my actual Excalibur II Perfect Game. It should be adaptable to other paths as well.

In order to do this, you need to synth 7 Topaz in Daguerreo (you need 7 Ores, which may be a problem), and have Zidane Master Lucky Seven, MP Attack, and Auto-Float. There is a better than 1 in 12 chance of you doing this (in my experience close to 1 in 6). Zidane should hit for 7777 damage on his first Lucky Seven. You still might want a calculator to figure out the damage.


With MP Attack, Zidane should do between 3042 and 3666 damage with his physical attack to Shell Dragon. Move Zidane to the back row and throw Potions and Hi-Potions as necessary to bring his HP above 7777. Wait until he uses Smash and throw a Topaz (with Dagger if possible), if on your next turn Zidane still has 737 HP (either Dagger threw the Topaz, she was hit with Smash, or Shell Dragon used Earth Shake), unleash Lucky Seven and pray.

wow, but isn't it more practical to use shiva?

If you use Shiva, she becomes "flagged" as used. There is a 100% chance that the full animation will appear when you use an Eidolon for the first time. Maintaining this is a requirement of the perfect game.
