Actual "most powerful attacks" are Cait Sith's Slots limit in FFVII and Selphie's The End limit in FFVIII. Both can insta kill any enemy. Also Barret's limit Angermax and Cid's limit Highwind (both 18 hits) can deal potentially more damage than Omnislash

@rajamicitrenti1374

Yuffie's Doom of the Living also outpaces Omnislash, and is easier to get to high damage than any other character's Limits, because her ultimate weapon's powerup factor is weird and still applies to Limit Break damage. It only hits 15 times, but it's something. Also, if not limiting to single-target, I believe Barrett's Catastrophe hits all targets for 10 times each, so with enough enemies it can surpass everything for a single usage (but I don't think there are any fights with multiple targets that would survive a single full-power use of it). Vincent can also instant kill anything by overflowing the kill counter that powers up his Ultimate Weapon. And it kind of technically does it through damage, so it would be more likely to be eligible if only counting things based on damage. Also, it's not a Limit Break, so he can use it every turn.

Ff8 may not be my favorite FF game but Zell is definitely one of my top favorite simply because of his limit break.

Final Fantasy 12 was probably my favorite Final Fantasy out of all of them I enjoyed their battle system and I loved the whole Gambit system

Fun little fact: nearly every single final fantasy mainline game and spin off has some way to break it over your knee; even the first. FF1 had the "peninsula of power" an area where the encounter table was way higher than was intended aka mid level to high level monsters. toss in a fire 2 spell and you could rocket your exp and gil. FF2...you literally beat yourself up to get stronger. Spells just needed to be used, weapons just needed to be equipped and attacked with and it was more efficient to attack each other to gain health. You could make your team into gods without leaving the starter area. FF3 was the first game to introduce the job system...hilarity ensues. Gear that negates damage, OP classes like Ninja and Sage and, of course, the maxed out Onion Knight. These are just the first 3 games. I haven't even brought up the Esper system in 6, Lucky 7/KotR in 7, getting Leon's best weapon within the first few hours of 8, Zidane's steal scaling skill/Freya's dragon scaling skill in 9, Yojimbo in 10 and soooo many more. Ironically, 13 is probably the most balance game in the series along side 14, though that last one is for fairness sakes since its an MMO...and I wouldn't have this series any other way.

The most powerful attack in Final Fantasy is Yojimbo's Zanmatto, doesn't matter how much your enemy have HP (including Penance 12,000,000 HP) it guarantee 1 hit kill. Honorable mention is Cait Sith "Gave Over" limit break that also guarantee 1 hit kill no matter what superboss you encounter.

As someone who mains White Mage in FFXIV: BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD LILY!!!!!!!!!!! Hahah Though, that ginormous number may be a thing of the past now, because of Endwalker's number squishing.

For FF7. Both Yuffie with "Doom of the living" and Barret with "Angermax" hits more times then Omnislash. So with max strengt and luck, they both deal more and get filled faster du to beeing lower level limitbreak then Omnislash. I would say that Barret is the strongest character in the game if you don't count breaking the max damage cap thing which is easier to accomplish with Vincent. Barret is the best counter/mime char due to standing in the backline while dealing full damage and having the best limitbreak in the game.

I see Zell, I click.

The Afflatus Misery thing was for a very specific piece of content. In said content, EVERY job had massive damage potential. Misery might be the highest for potential on a single hit, but DPS and other jobs would still outpace them on total DPS when played optimally. Samurai, Black Mage and Machinist in particular have some extremely strong set-ups in there and they only got stronger in the intermediary raid and its Savage version with the addition of pure essences. WHM and other healers want their respective pure in Savage in order to survive unavoidable damage in each fight, but in Normal they could take deep profane for a much more substantial damage boost that comes at the cost of 70% lower healing. WHM stands out here because they can bring Profane with Seraph Strike, an ability that further buffs damage and debuffs healing by another 60%, their ability Thin Air could then be used to remove the 5000 MP cost on Seraph Strike allowing them to pair it with Font of Magic and Ether kits to crank out the gargantuan numbers that could reach that 10m mark. Though it's very contingent on buffs from other party members lining up properly. The issue I find with this raid is that new/ignorant players will prioritize defensive essences and buffs like protect/shell/bubble which are functionally useless as ever single mechanic you fail in a fights apply a stack of Twice-come Ruin, a debuff that when applied twice would place an uncleansable Doom on the one being hit. The actual damage from the mechanics is negligible with echo now, even without essences so defensive buffs are the very definition of useless now in there and only serve to make runs take much longer when the ones bringing them don't bother to learn what works much better or read the chat where people say as much before runs even begin. Shell however is useful for the last two bosses in the Savage version and healers/DPS can opt to bring one or two for action swaps before those fights.

There was a combo I utilized in FF6 that was pretty bonkers, but it did take a few turns. Had GoGo in the party and my heavy magic person equipped with the Gem Box, which allowed for dual casting and cast Ultima and quick. This gave the caster two more turns with dual casting of Ultima (5 in total). I would then have GoGo mimic and they would cast Ultima and quick, then get two more castings of Ultima (now up to 8 castings)

Save the queen gives you +3 stamina, +4 speed and +7 magic and adds +40% to evasion and magic evasion.

As others have pointed out the FFXI info is just wrong. Shark Bite like all weapon skills caps at 99999 damage. Frankly Shark Bite is a very old obsolete WS and there are plenty of other WS that do more hits, though again still capping at 99999. But! If that weapon skill creates a skillchain that skillchain can do another 99999 damage for a total of 199998. I have to assume this is where the confusion comes from? But almost every WS can do this, and Shark Bite isn't even the best choice for pulling this off with a dagger, that would be Rudra's Strom or Mandalic Stab. No, there is only one way to truly break this cap. (Well Barrage can manage it but just barely) The maximum damage from one attack in FFXI is 2000000 exactly. That attack comes from a beastmaster pet named Generous Arthur and is called Purulent Ooze. In fact it's a debuff rather than a direct attack, but what it does is reduce the target's maximum HP by 10%. Whatever HP the enemy has above 90% is just erased. This of course means the "damage" it does is highly variable, but as of right now the enemies with the largest HP pools are the final bosses of Dynamis-Divergence with 20 million. Hit them with the ooze as the very first move and that's 2 million damage. (There is a world spawn dragon called Mireu who likely has more HP but I don't know whether ooze can land on him or what his maximum hp even is, look it's a weird fight plagued by the worst lag possible. I doubt it's possible to accurately test its HP. ) Also worth pointing out that there is one other way to break the damage cap. Scholars have a spell called Kaustra that is only available while under the effect of their limited SP ability that does huge damage over time. If maxed out it does 24999 initial damage, then does so again every 3 seconds for a total of ten ticks. That's 249990 total damage, but does it count if it's spread out over so long? It is only the one attack after all.

Barret was the most powerful in ff7. Fully built with angermax or have all slots on his ultimate weapon equipped with mastered KOTR materia which can allow him to kill emerald weapon with one single basic attack. The game can't even read the damage!

True but like.... How many people have the patience to grind out 8.4 million AP for 8 Mastered KotR? I was getting burnt out just grinding it out to 250k for a single Level 2 against Ruby Weapon

"Final Fantasy XIII was quite a nuanced game, with Lightning fast combat..." Sigh. Yes Darryl, we see what you did there... ❤

For me 11 is the best game of all time I played it for 15years what memories

yes, i did one of those... i equipped Cloud with two yellow Materia that boost max health, getting him to 9999 health, and equipped him with his ultimate weapon, which does damage equal to his health, then used Omnislash. this came in quite handy during the "battle arena"! PS: i never did manage to acquire "knights of the Round"...

I still appreciate that in ff1 - either with bug-fix patches applied for the NES version, or otherwise, that Monk/Master can hit in the thousands with a high enough level combined with enough buffs (SABR+FAST+TMPR). It's why my favorite party combination is either Monk/Master(1), Black Mage/Wizard(3), White Mage/Wizard(4), and either Red Mage/Wizard or Ninja for slot 2.

Even though I know monk is better than thief in FF1, my team is always fighter, thief, black mage, and white mage because I hate not being able to use every weapon in game, and these all have a weapon or armor only they can use. Excalibur, Katana, Black shirt and White shirt (which I'm pretty sure are robes not shirts, but I recall the icon looks like a shirt).

Another noteworthy FF7 damage source is Barrett’s Fury Max limit using his ultimate weapon with 8 mastered Knights of the Round materia slotted. Raised the damage so high that it bugged out and set it to max damage output.

Thanks for the content, great video

The phycological effect of numbers can be quite interesting, for example when it comes to prices. For some reason we are much more likely to buy something that costs 99 (insert currency of choice) than something that costs 100. Much the same way we can feel a sense of accomplishment or power when our damage output goes from double into triple digits or more. I remember being amazed by the Break Damage Limit ability in Final Fantasy X since the damage exceeded 9999 (how is that even possible?). Now, in Final Fantasy XIV, we are seeing a drop in numbers, which I am totally fine with, but some players have noted a slight drop in how they experience their characters power. I like how this video frames the subject of powerful attacks and puts it into a historical context within the Final Fantasy series. This is something I hadn't thought much about before. - Nökkvi

I always thought the maximum damage skill in FFVII was Barret's Ungarmax. It's 18 hits total. If you manage to max out the damage then it does more than both omnislash and knights of the round (IF you manage the max out the damage. You have to chug hero drinks IRRC). If you use the same counter-mime materia trick it should do the most damage in the game minus the lucky 7's.

I know one attack in FF7 that tops both Omnislash AND KOTR: Vincent’s Death Penalty. If you put Vincent in your party as soon as he becomes available, and use him to kill absolutely EVERYTHING, he requires 65,500-ish kills to “max out” the power of his unique Death Penalty weapon. From what I have heard, ONE shot from it will deal over 1,250,000 points of damage. It is known as the overflow glitch, as the damage numbers that normally appear on-screen are replaced by random symbols and gobbledygook. Barret is also capable of the same overflow glitch with his Missing Score weapon, which it’s power is reliant on how much AP is attached to the weapon. Put 8 mastered KOTR materias on it, and BOOM- overflow glitch. Both overflows are VERY tedious to obtain, with Barret’s being MUCH easier in comparison (acquiring 4 million AP in the North Crater swamp area isn’t too difficult) when compared to the amount of time it takes to achieve 65,500 kills for Vincent. Keep in mind that ANY weapon Vincent uses to dispose of enemies counts towards the kill count, not limited to just Death Penalty. I am actually in the midst of a FF7 pure 100% playthrough, where I get the maximum amount of ANYTHING and EVERYTHING possible in the game, including both overflow glitches. Over 750 hours in, Vincent has roughly 30-35,000 kills. Click my name for clips of my progress. Enjoy the journey😉🤟🏻

FFBE has some insanely powercreeped damage numbers. Max damage used to be 2,147,483,647 which was limited by the bit limit but everyone was EASILY hitting that cap. Since they changed it the max damage is 9,999,999,999 in a single hit but some characters can do over 40 billion damage in a turn with maxed multi hit moves

I was unaware of some of these exploits... now I have to try them

Hitting max damage in JRPGs always feels very rewarding. Like in Xenoblade 2 useing Zenobias LV:3 Special which i think was 5-6 attacks, who could all easy hit the max damage of 999999 with each hit in a chain attack.

The Shark Bite shout out, hell yeah!

One thing to note about FF7; This combo could in theory work with anyone so Barret would be the ideal choice with 18 attacks instead of 16. 9999 * 18 * 8 Would deal 1.44m damage.

The fact that Final Sting is not the FFXIV entry is wild to me. Afflatus Misery is 900 potency, it can crit and direct hit and become about twice that. It also doesn’t have any moves that buff its own damage. Final Sting, when it crits + direct hits + uses all buffs available to a Blue Mage, it can do 12,106 potency. I get the one niche case of someone hyper-buffing a White Mage to do 10M in a hit, but that’s more indicative of the amount of buffs you can use in a certain bit of side-content than of how strong the move actually is

@mactassio21

to be fair, said buffs are exclusive to healers and out of the 4 healers White mages are the only ones with access to a 900 potency move.

I love how these games reward you to put in the effort to go the extra mile

For the ff7 example, if you count multiple reps of an attack (but done through one command), then the 8x Omnislash (through Mime + Counter) would actually get outdone by double-summoning Knights of the Round (via W-Summon), then stackimg several Mime + Counters

Ff9 should've had steiners charge ability where every character who is in critical health attacks back to back

in a similar vein as ff8's duel limit break counting, i imagine ff12's quickening system would probably hit some insane numbers when combined with those powerful weapons mentioned. you could repeat them for what felt like an infinite amount of time

all those hotdogs help Zell dish out that damage

Thumbnail reminded me of my friends joke that Silphie got The End when In Skies of Arcadia the Moon Priestess did Her Ultimate Skill (One was playing one game by the time the other was finishing FF8) XD

People sleep on the Master from FF1's normal, unarmed attack. By late game he can hit 8 time per attack with it being possible for every hit to cause 999 damage (which is the damage cap in that game.) Meaning he can potentially do 8992 damage in a single NORMAL attack. That HUGE in that particular game.

I think it would have been worth mentioning Final Fantasy VII's damage calculation integer overflow kills that are possible with Barret's Missing Score and Vincent's Death Penalty. When the game is doing damage calculation, prior to the point where it would reduce the damage to a damage cap, the intermediate calculation would put the damage numbers above 2,147,483,648; so they overflow the 32-bit integer variable designed to hold the intermediate calculation. When this happens, the attack target just instantly dies, so it kind of is like they're doing all that damage.
