Absolutely. Edgar (along with Celes, Terra and Locke) have access to the best set up in the game, Dual wielding Atma/ultima weapons/valiant knife with offering/Genji Glove. Nothing else in the game does remotely close to the damage output that does. 9999 x 8= 79,992. Granted it's typically gross overkill if you're not playing the gameboy advance version, but it still vastly blows away Gau and others he put higher on the list.

Your tier list assumes grinding, which favors characters you have around longer. This will impact the tier list in some ways, such as knocking Terra down a peg. You lose her right when you get your first Espers, meaning she misses out on some HP and MP gain and spell learning time. Also you should put Locke in the God Tier, since by equipping the best weapons and relics in the game, he has higher damage output than even Gembox > Ultima > Quick > Ultima Ultima. 8 hits with the Atma Weapon/Valiant Knife combo ignore defense, and after a certain point deal maximum damage, inspite of his HP levels. At lower levels the weapons offset one another's weakness. This isn't even an exploit, and it's available to you right when you get him back in the WoR. Gau should be in the mid-tier. The time investment for his rages is only justified by fun factor, not by power factor. Generic magic or skills trumps him performing the same attack over and over, or worse, alternating it with a normal attack. The Wind God Gau build doesn't peg him up a tier, either. His utility in a low level run of the game comes from the strength of early rages, and the fact that he skips input time. Mog should be in low tier. Dances aren't that great, can fail and waste a turn, and he is obtained late, meaning it takes longer to get him stats and learn magic. Plus his best Dance is easily missed. Bring Edgar up to God Tier. He is present for nearly the whole game, recruited early in both worlds, and may always be in your party, allowing him to learn more magic than anyone else, even without stopping to grind. His tools attack and magic also reflect against the stats you can grind up for him. STR for Autocrossbow, Chainsaw, Drill. Magic for Flash and Bio Blaster. Knock Relm down two tiers. She is obtained so late into the WoB, that you need to stop to grind magic for her. Her personal skill is only useful as Control, and only useful if you have either played the game tons or have a guide to use it to help you learn blue magic. Keep Sabin in the high tier. His Blitzes go either way, physical or magical, depending on the Blitz. What keeps him out of God TIer is inputing Blitz is never 100% clean for anybody, but even if you could get it to be that way, he is restricted in some cases by the elements he has available to his AOEs. Bring Shadow up to high tier. Items thrown can play off of Magic Power or Vigor, depending on if it's a skean or not. If you grind his STR/Vigor, Throw will allow him to hit max damage, every single turn, earlier than pretty much any other character, particularly by exploiting the elemental weaknesses of enemies with the Blizzard, Flame, and Thunder sabers. Lastly, bring Strago up to Mid Tier. He starts with Aqua Rake, which is pretty much a superior version of Ice 2 for about the same cost. Raising of his magical power and performing his sidequest in THamasa in the WoR grants him Grandtrain, his most powerful Lore, which is basically a less expensive MP wise, slightly weaker Ultima, that is learned more quickly.

i finished FFVI for the first time just 4 days ago and i pretty much agree with what you said. well, maybe i will make a case of putting Gau to low tier considering the frustration i felt in farming his skills, and coz of that i learned why his skill is called Rage. and even if you are lucky in farming Rages, his damage is pretty inconsistent coz it relies on the AI actually doing what you want him to do. in the end Locke was the wrecking machine i didn't expect with X-Fight and Valiant Knife.

Edgar Sabin Terra and Celes are the top 4 in speedrunning with Gogo tied with Sabin. Who grinds this game to max 9999 x 8 damage? That is so last century. Play for a challenge for a change, and don't overlevel. Celes is in the higher tier than Locke, they have basically the same equipment sets, but Celes can wear Minerva and other female only gear like Mystery Veil. Terra's Morph is insanely useful, as it grants 2x damage done and 1/2 damage taken, while also Morph is buffed after Phunbaba to last longer. This post assumes you grind to entirely useless casual levels and waste your time. The best character comparisons are from speedrunning.

I usually put Celes and Terra up in the top tier. Then Sabin is awesome and Gau was one of the first characters I was able to get very far in the game with. Locke has always been pretty good, but he becomes more valuable towards the end. I have different team preferences every time I play the game. It just depends on what my situation is at the time.

I definitely disagree with the ranks assigned but I had an amazing time watching this video and found it extremely entertaining. I appreciate the opinions expressed.

i go for whats the best in the end game. not including glitches and game overlooked game breakers. in the end game, stats dont matter cus you can max the important stats with espers. so the only things that seperate the characters is the equipment they can use and the unique skill they have. also take note that the best end game commands are magic with the soul of thamasa+celestriad relics and attack with the genji gloves+master scroll relics. the top 5 are all equally great... its hard to choose so i just listed them in random order. 1. Celes-(can equip all best end game equipment and runic is still useful) ruinc makes her an infinite mana mage 2. Terra-(can equip all best end game equipment and transform is still useful) transfrom makes her the most poweful mage. 3. locke-(can equip all best end game equipment and steal still has uses especially to farm repeat items.) 4. Mog-(can equip the best end game defensive gear and the molulu charm is very useful) 5. Gau-(can equip the best end game defensive gear slightly better than mog and rage can be broken if you desire that lol but no molulu charm) 6. Edgar-(can equip all the best end game equipment) the next few are mediocre 7. Shadow-(interceptor is still useful and his innate physical evade remains) 8. Stezer-(can be spell caster with dice in back row) 9. cyan-ok with genji gloves+master scroll these guys suck in the end game compared to the others cus they have shit equipment 10. Strago-(a couple unique blue mage spells are ok) 11. Sabin-a couple blitzes are ok 12. Relm-ummm the last two are just trash cus they cant use espers to raise their stats and they get shit equipment or cant be controled. 13. Gogo- i could replace relm with gogo because of gogos versatility. 14. umaro

Is that anime at the end for real?

Everyone seems to be here to argue but I just wanted to say that we actually need that anime to be done with full episodes and at least 100 of them.

Sure he's time consuming and his rages are uncontrollable but unlike Umaro and Gogo he can learn magic so he can do pretty much everything everyone else can plus literally hundreds of more skills. He can also teach Strago blue magic because in VI Strago just needs to see the skill. I hate when people say that a character is useless only because of how long it takes to get them useful.

Locke is God tier, if built right. It’s been a while since I’ve played so I don’t remember item names. Have to build him up with HP and speed esper (GBA). Need the double cast relic, hp sword (higher the hp higher the dmg), and double equip relic. In battle, when on Locke cast quick, then attack. You’ll do 160k damage. Works best on Locke because of his natural high speed stat.

One more thing about Gau is that he can equip the Snow Scarf just like Mog.

Locke should be God-Tier. The ability to equip Atma Weapon/Valiant Knife and crack 9,999 x 8 can kill the most powerful boss in the game, Kefka in 1 single turn. The ability to be so versatile, while literally having the most powerful Offensive setup in the game that can ignore defense makes him the best character in the game.

early in game having gau use catscratch is something i always do. also i do like strago and always get every blue magic there is, when he's available

I think tiers that consider max potential on lvl 99 + top equip are silly. If you take the time to level up and get top equip, you can kill any enemy with any character in 2 seconds - thus making any comparison useless. Imho, tier lists should consider a normal or low lvl playthrough - without the OP game breaking equips (again - if you have gem box + economizer, any character bar Umaro is godlike). In a normal/low lvl tier, taking in consideration how late each character joins (less time = less magic + stats) best characters should be Terra, Celes, Sabin, Edgar, Gau and Gogo.

Calls Setzer Low Tier, proceeds to show him 9999ing, quite a common occurrence.

Dual wield Genji Glove Offering Atma Sword Illumina for life yo Also, thank you for putting Relm in Top Tier!

None of his weapon options are good, so unless you waste a relic slot on merit award he's going to be stuck doing some of the weakest physical damage of any of your fighters... and that's a slot that could have gone to something that greatly boosts damage. Sabin has similar problems. Claws fall off hard in the late game. Not as bad as the crap ninja daggers that Shadow uses, but pretty damn hard. There's a reason people tell you to spec Sabin to magic instead.

Gau can also equip the Snow Muffler. Both characters can hit 255 defense to take only 1 dmg per hit.

While I do agree that magic. Is the most damage skill in the game, this list is very subjective. For instance shadows throw later on is incredibly OP, Edgar's tool does even armor break, that alone makes it OP for the next attacks and the debilitator makes magic users easier.

Locke has a much better equipment set. I'd use Locke over Sabin any day of the week up to endgame, when swap them. Gogo and Sabin are insanely good in speedrunning. Because Bum Rush ignores magic defense and hits for ~5k on underleveled Gogo/Sabin.

@@mouradlajili2417 You can use thief knife on Shadow (or anyone with merit award) to replace Locke if you want steal for certain encounters.

Wishing for a remake 🙏🙏

Surely GoGo is top because hidden in the menu you can assign literally all other characters unique abilities and have multiple. Also maybe it's different on later versions, but Gau and Mog can both take 1hp per attack with Snow Scarf.

I agree with Locke being the best character, such a good back story. Then the way he saved Celes and they grow closer to each other throughout the game.

Locke is my favorite character in FF. When Cyan (the legendary samurai that said fk the army I'll go solo this) threatens Celes and Locke the little treasure hunter jumps in front I was surprised. Then you learn of his backstory and it all makes sense. Then again Locke and Cyan are my two favorite FF characters. 6 in general has IMO the best cast.

Terra and Locke are like d4 and e4 in Chess. Both best by test.

Tl;dr use mog he’s op My problem with Relm, or, as I called her in both of my ffvi playthroughs, Pictomancer Chick, is that not only is she gotten like right before WoR where you have to then go and get her in WoR, she is kind of like Locke in the sense that they are the 2 characters that seem like the worst on paper, not counting Umaro, but with a lot of work, keyword, A LOT OF WORK, can become gods. Locke has nothing going for him until Phoenix Cave, his magic stat is poor, and even with genji glove his damage cannot go anywhere higher than if Terra just does the same thing, or, well, any other character. Yes, steal is good, but even if you use mug you won’t be doing much damage. Relm is the magic counterpart to Locke, where she is the magical powerhouse.

Celes. Dual illuminas with black belt. Just runic and let enemies attack you. she'll block every magic and physical attack and absorb magic plus destroy you without you having to press attack. and if she's in yellow life and she gets attacked, she will counter with her limit break

Edgar: I don't need magic, #@$%!

I don't have this game but I do have Relm and Setzer in Dissidia.

The top 6 are 1. Terra 2. Celes 3. Locke 4. Mog 5. Edgar 6. Gau Because they have the best end game equipment options. Xfight with duel wielding is the most powerful command against single targets. Xmagic with quick is the most powerful command for aoe damage, aoe curing, and other nifty stuff magic can do. If you want to be cheap, technically God tier is both gau and gogo because one of their rages can control all enemies in the game including bosses. Kinda like Ernst in suikoden 5. My team was terra, cus of morph increases with xfight, Celes with xfight and runic is nifty, Locke with xfight because it’s convenient to always have steal, and mog with xmagic and paladin shield as my tank caster... also mululu charm makes the whole Game a cake walk.

Give Setzer Fized Dice, Genji Glove (Dice as the 2nd weapon) and Master Scroll/Offering and he'll be God Tier

I want a ff6 remake so much 😭

The PC version fixes the Bushido problem

I got Gau, Cyan, Setzer, Umaro, all bottom. Shadow, MOG, and Edgar Low. Mid Relm, Top Sabin, Celes, Strago, Gogo God Locke and Terra

I want that anime at the end. Naruto style Final Fantasy 6 anime looks badass.

Crap Tier 1:00 Umaro 1:24 Cyan Low Tier 1:49 Strago 2:09 Setzer Mid Tier 2:29 Shadow 2:57 Gogo 3:21 Edgar Top Tier 3:56 Mog 4:15 Sabin 4:35 Locke 5:04 Celes 5:35 Relm S Tier 6:01 Gau 6:25 Terra 6:44 Optimal Party Mix of Mages/Physical Damage: Terra, Relm, Locke, and Gau Full on Mages: Terra, Relm, Celes, and Gogo Full on Powerhouse: Locke, Terra, Celes, and Relm

My Terra wrecked the game solo with the Atma weapon and offering... Also best theme song!

I agree with your list for the most part, however in my opinion Locke is god tier. He has the one thing that beats out magic, valiant knife plus master scroll combo. It does a lot of damage even without Locke being damaged, but when he is below half health it is just broken. You could also add the ultima weapon by equipping the genji glove to get even more damage. Fixed dice plus master's scroll also makes seltzer pretty broken as well, although that is deep into endgame.

My fear of being bias kept him out haha. Locke is by far the most underappreciated character in the Final Fantasy Universe.

@@locloudanerpg I may be completely missing the point then. Cos' for me he was always the most generic and OVERrated. I believe he has slight Speed advantage at the start of the game, but that's about it.

Celes, Terra, Mog, Locke - always my final 4

Strago, Shadow, Relm and Umaro awesome team,family time lol

Celes is not a lesser Terra she has the easiest road to 128 magic defense and while runic is less than morph , morph is only practical if you save it for the whole game has it has a hidden charge

I love videos made on Final Fantasy VI as it’s easily my FAVORITE Final Fantasy game of all time (followed by FFVII at a close 2nd, and then FFIV). The nostalgia and pure joy I feel hearing any song from this game, or seeing the original pixel graphics (DEF not the iOS Bs graphics) is unmatched... However, I disagree with you on at LEAST half of your tier picks LOL. GoGo is HIGH top tier, if not God tier. If you put X-Magic on let’s say Terra, so she uses Ultima (or any other spell) twice in one turn, then use mimic with GoGo, he will also cast Ultima twice. You don’t have to waste time learning magic with GoGo as you can just have him mimic your most powerful spells. He’s a beast

Gogo literally CAN'T learn magic, they just know all the spells of everyone in your current party. which frankly is even more awesome. Gogo FTW

I would put locke and setzer on the same tier. They both rely on Master scroll combo and I think setzer doesn't need to be as high level for fixed dice to do their thing relative to locke's valiant knife.

Once cyan has quick, he is insane.

I have a save file where I have Terra, Celes, Edgar, Strago & Relm all at 127, 128, 129 MBlock. Due to the MBlock bug, they cannot be hit save for certain combinations of attacks. Each of these characters should be in the God Tier as they are almost unkillable by mobs.

Umaro with the blizzard orb served me just fine. Cyan has an easy infinite damage infinite attack set up.

It's been a while but I followed a guide, Locke could hit for 40,000 hit points in one turn with the right gloves and swords ! Locke is the most powerful by a long shot.

I can’t argue with much of any of your placement decisions. Good research and great entertainment!

I definitely can argue with his placements. It complete falls apart if you factor in melee>Stronger than magic. Dual wielding Atma weapons/valiant knife with an offering destroys anything. Edgar/Locke/Terra/Celes are best characters based off actual math. 9999 x 8 = 79,9992 which more life than anything in the game has besides the secret bosses in the gameboy advance version.

Sure, you can make one sword user do that, but that setup is only possible at the very end of the game. He’s judging characters also along the whole progress of the game, as well as judging what makes them unique from each other, and a setup that works on multiple characters doesn’t emphasize character uniqueness.

@@KeiMontague Naaah you're off base complete with that. He doesn't factor in that at all. If he did factor the entire game Edgar would be still be the top guy. He's super useful the entire game. Chain saw/drill do 9999 way before alot of other stuff does and are easily gained access to with no real hoops. He easily outclasses Gau who requires tons of needless BS to actually be good. (plus learning what each rage actually does.) If you're playing the game for the first time you won't be using Gau for precisely that reason. I could go deeper, but that I think purely articulates a flaw in that notion. Secondly you get the Atma weapon before the end of the first half of the game. Depending on the version how quickly you can get a second or the valiant knife. In the Snes you could glitch on the veldt to cause you get more of them. In the GBA version and later version you'd have wait to battle kefka to steal additional weapons (which you can get a couple other high end swords.) You get the valiant knife soon as you get Locke back in the world of ruin. The offering isn't that hard to get as you can collect it soon as you regain access to castle figaro. So no this isn't something purely obtainable at the end of the game that should invalidate my statement. If you're arguing for some sort of minimalist run without any kind of grinding, Edgar would still be at the top of the heap since his drill is super easy to get with no real grinding. Yes you can go but Lastjustice it's his opinion...which is fine but it's not one backed by facts or math. It's a feels list not a logic list. The reality is Edgar, Locke, Terra, and Celes outclass everyone by stupid degrees and any list they aren't the top four characters on simply is wrong by math. I'm fine with people liking other characters more but the point of tiers is actually backing it with facts which this list doesn't really gell with. While the game isn't remotely hard enough to warrent using that set up besides the bonus dungeons in the gameboy advance/later versions(The Super bosses you need be going all out to beat.) it doesn't change what is optimal. Sure you can win with any random gang you like which why the game is fun and has tons of replay value. I definitely don't disagree with everything here. I do agree that Umaro belongs dead last on the list, so not like I disagree with everything he said. I periodically see weirdos defend Umaro...he sucks deal with it.
