I am On the tower top floor ... Then i encounter Magic Master... i did what the cheats said, i use berserk on it then use dualcast thundaga ( his weakness ) but when his hp gone to 0 ... he should have die .. But he use Ultima ... At this rate my reflect cannot bounce it back to him and eventually my party die;( ...Ultima had hit me 6600 to my 2of my members ( edgar and Sabin ) and hit 5500 to Celes and mog ....Can anyone plz tell me how to survive the Ultima attack .. btw my Mog is 43 , Sabin is 43 , EDgar is 40 and celes is 40;(

You CANNOT survive Ultima, you must use Reraise on at least on character to win.

hmm .. i dont have reraise .. but i can avoid ... when magic master is low in heatlh i use the espers call querrial ( not sure ) that let all my allys fly to the sky and 1 by 1 they jump and attack him ..then when the first one go down , she/he will immediately do magic .. in the end the boss counter back with ultima and only ko 1 of my members !!11 .. Btw .. thx that u tell me about the reraise trick .. ^^

Actually...the only way is Reraise, I'm pretty sure it hits not matter what...

Uh Well Yeah you kinda Need Reraise, GameShark, Or At least 8000 HP.....

but i manage to did it without reraise ...i use an esper.. the esper that fly 4 ppl up .. so 3 ppl will not be hiited by ultima ^^

That's the only way to win other than Reraise.

There are 3 ways u can win this boss.

1.) make sure at least 1 character has rerasie cast on them when the boss uses Ultima.

2.) summon Queztalli to have ur peopel fly away so they cannt get hrut form ultima (you need pretty good time for this one to work.

3.) cast beserk o na character with the dragon boots relic equiped. He will cosntantly jump and if he is in the air when Ultima is used that character will survive.

I jsut beat the boss... and then i died on the way down. ugh...

died on the way down. o that is terrible. you did not have mog without the n o encounter accorie. that sucks

It's pretty hard without re-raise, but a really easy way to be at him is have 3 people in you're party and Mog, with Molulu's charm, so you don't get in any battles on the way. Have at least one person with a relic called Celestraid this makes it so all magic cost's 1 Mp.

So when you're in the battle equip mog with the Relics Dragon Horn and Dragon Boots (Have him jump every turn) and everyone else use Quick, then ultima 5 times, if you kill him fast enough, mog should still be in the air, and you'll win.

Or better yet have re-raise, I killed him in seconds, literially, like 20 seconds.

Here's a effective way of defeating Magic Master!:

First, make sure your party is at least lvl. 60. Next, I recommend Terra, Mog, Umaro and Gogo for this battle. Finally, MAKE SURE THEY ARE EQUIPPED EXACTLY THE WAY I HAVE IT SET UP! *ahem* Do this and you'll beat him with no trouble.

Terra:

Zantetsuken
Genji Shield
Red Cap
Minerva Bustier
Star Pendant
Safety Bit

Mog:

Golden Spear
Golden Shield
Golden Helm
Golden Armor
Amulet
Molulu's Charm

Umaro:

Bone Club


Snow Scarf
Ribbon
Berserker Ring

Gogo:
Gladius
Aegis Shield
Genji Helm
Black Garb
Golden Hairpin
Alarm Earring

Now, Mog having Molulu's Charm is obviously to scale the tower without having to fight any ememies on the way up. And lastly, the way I have this set up, you can pretty much coast through the battle with little effort. Mog and Gogo will just kick the bucket eventually, but the main point is to keep Terra and Umaro alive. Just sit back and watch Umaro pummel the crap out of Magic Master! At the end he'll cast Ultima and if Terra's HP is high enough, she'll be the sole suvivor of this battle. And when you go back down, molulu's Charm will keep you safe until you can properly heal!

Good luck, and I hope this strategy works for those who use it!

Finally, the way I have this set up, you can pretty much coast through the battle with little effort. Mog and Gogo will just kick the bucket eventually (if you choose not to use them to fight and let Mog sport his Golden equipment), but the main point is to keep Terra and Umaro alive. Since Terra has the Safety Bit, she won't succumb to Magic Master's instant death spell, only Umaro, in which case, revive him by casting Arise. So all you'll have to do is just sit back and watch Umaro pummel the crap out of Magic Master! At the end Ultima will be cast as a last resort and if Terra's HP is high enough, she'll be the sole suvivor of this battle. And when you go back down, Molulu's Charm will keep you safe until you can properly heal!
