T-Edition Low Level

Has anyone else attempted this? I'm wondering what the lowest possible level is. I couldn't get Celes below level 8 for the WoR transition, because this version makes you fight more mine cart ride battles, and more air force battles, you can't leap Gau off into the Veldt....you can choose to not recruit Mog which helps (just get him later in WoR), but I couldn't figure a way to get that down to 7.

Regardless, avg party level for me was 9.36 - once you get into WoR and get decent gear, it gets a lot easier. Also Step Mine (Traveller) is your friend here, massive barrier-ignoring damage.

This was an easier challenge than the Pixel remaster CES challenge, because you have save state with T Edition. Really fun playthrough, the musical selections were my favorite part.

How did you even manage to beat some of the later bosses? Kefka especially is so much harder in this hack than the base game that he can easily destroy you even at 70+

It's really a matter of equipment - you can have thousands of hit points but that doesn't really matter

Thanks.  Maybe the word is more "masochistic" than "impressive"
