Won the fight with only the first 4. Edgar's out there casting magic because I was paranoically casting Life 3 on my entire party that I didn't even notice I beat Kefka. Freaking love Gau. So yeah, I just consistently casted Cure 2/3 on the entire party every so often and Osmose'd slightly less often. Sheesh, that third phase is pretty annoying. I loved how Kefka's ultimate attack did not kill anyone in my party(about 2000-ish damage on everybody but everybody was at good health).
Good game. Liked the characters quite a whole lot(well, I found Locke pretty meh except when stealing clothes and briefly during the Thamasa part of the game, and I guess Cyan stopped being awesome.). The game was pretty nice from beginning to end, but I kinda find myself not so motivated to do a second playthrough. Idk, I just found some stuff annoying(Daryl's tomb having enemies that can Zombify with incredible ease, the sequence you have to go by to re-encounter Sabin[freaking enemies that can turn Celes into Stone], the dungeon you have to do to re-encounter Locke[ugh....], and some other examples but a few of them were me just making dumb mistakes and being overconfident with saving.)
