    Actually the whole reason why Brahne died is cause she made the lethal mistake of summoning Bahamut while she was on a boat. Made it hard to escape.

    She may have been brave, but Garnet’s decision to try and reason with her unreasonable mother results in her Eidolons being stolen, which in turn results in the genocide of two civilizations and tens of thousands of deaths. No wonder she has a guilt complex.

    Okay real talk, the haircut CAN be a healing experience
    If you're having a really bad time, sometimes if you have long hair, cutting it can feel like a legit mood changer, even if you don't fix everything, because it shows you're making a step to change

      Yes!!! In Japan they have a habit of cutting hair as a huge symbol of change. I think it comes from the Edo era samurai.

    Hey everyone! First of all just want to say banger video. Editing team do an amazing job and I'm glad to see them getting a shout out.
    I was sent these challenge videos from a few friends asking if I was involved [I'm not] due to my background is Final Fantasy IX speedrunning, and more importantly, challenge runs.
    For context, I've created resources for FFIX challenge runs, including the "Solo Character Challenge" series, specifically that can be used to speedrun these challenges, or be picked up by anyone and followed to complete a playthrough.
    It genuinely brings me joy to see some points and strategies in these videos that originated from said resources [for example, the Phoenix Down/Life revive trick on Lich] along with some other key points that are specifically called out with "my chat told me".
    That overlap in communities, filled with people who want to help each other always brings me back to why I created these in the first place and makes me incredibly happy that I'm involved with such an amazing game and its fans.
    Looking forward to seeing more challenges! Please feel free to reach out to me if you and/or your community would like any assistance on FFIX challenge runs [more than just Solo Characters as well] as most of my notes are available, easy to follow and now that I know your channel is out there, looking forward to seeing any future playthroughs live!
    Small tip for Lich, Auto-Reflect protects you from Death and Stop [saving you the 4 magic stones on Locomotion] and you know how to deal with the Doom status now!
    Have a great day everyone! Mizzow out!

    8:15 Not only is she about to stand against a powerful army but against the person who swore to protect her. Beatrix is one of the strongest people in the world and yet Garnet shows so much determination to confront her if need be. You could argue that trying to convince her mother is also kind of naive but that she is willing to try shows that she has so much courage. (Really happy about you defending Garnet as a character, I think she has one of the greatest character arcs in FF history, even though I think gameplay wise she is inferior to Eiko lol. Still, one of my absolute favourite female characters of all time.)

    The damage calculation would require pasting a lot of text, so google that if anyone needs more clarification. Either way, editor was right, more ore = more death!

  • @InsanityReborn

    Alright so.. her real name isn't Garnet. It's actually Sarah. That's.. Eidolon Wall in Madain Sari lore, but more importantly.
    The green snake thing, Ralvuimago, doesn't coil in response to wind damage, it's specifically physical damage. I'm not sure why it's coiling in response to the Multina racket which should do wind damage, but I think it might be just taking normal attacks as a physical classification. FF9's battle system is... SURPRISINGLY complex.
    And as an example, at the time of this comment I haven't quite hit a point on when or if it's mentioned, but the gems in the game will increase the damage of eidolons. Depending on the gem. They only need to be in the inventory. This will be the same with Eiko later on. Each gem works with a different summon. This includes Ore for Odin, and the Odin's Sword ability.
    It's worth looking it up, one of the more abusable things in case you opt to rerun these.. similar to the amount of enemies which happen to be classified as Birds for Bird Killer in the game. (Killer abilities add 50% damage, flat out, per classification equipped.)
    Which is quite literally everything floating. Hence the meme question "what is your favourite bird in FF9?" Because A LOT of enemies float. Ghosts, ladybugs, Kuja even. My favourite bird happens to be the Zombie Whale.

  • @masterseal0418

    I think Garnet/Dagger is immune to trauma throughout FFIX's narrative. Even if her mother decimates countries with the Eidolons she owned, her life was on the line, or suffered in the hands of Kuja and other threats, she evens out and these horrific experiences do little on her mental state. In fact, Garnet/Dagger is the smartest character out of FFIX's entire cast, so if she could fail to save her kingdom, then take multiple vacations and get a haircut.

    If you get two more levels for Garnet, making her reach 21, she can then summon Ifrit, which has a 1/15 chance of doing enough damage to kill Black Waltz 2 without needing to revive any other party members.

    One thing that makes me sad is that even in this challenge the damage formula for the summons don't matter. Like, the fact they're based off of number of gems and all.
    Why did they do something so obscure? T.T
    (technically you did mention it with odin I guess)
    Summons in general are weird, they feel super redundant with black magic, and while FFX summons are really busted they're also so much fun and more interesting.
    Honestly if I had to do a rework of FF9 I would change dagger's summons to always work like they do in trance, even out of trance and casting another one would just change the summon that keeps coming back. Of course they would deal less damage as a tradeoff, but having a white mage deal passive constant damage makes a lot of sense since she's also helping you stay alive for that damage to matter, and it would also justify the very high mana cost.
    I would also have eiko's summon work differently, where all of them can activate based on conditions being met like phoenix does and you *can't* cast them normally. It would really differentiate eiko and garnet where garnet would be more focused on damage with a side of healing while eiko is a dedicated healer who doesn't really control her summons and just gets some help from time to time. It fits both characters and differentiate their gameplay both from each other and from vivi.
    Would also mean having to rework the trance for dagger, but y'know, if I had to rework ff9 the trance system would be the first thing I'd change anyway =p

      Garnet is her real name but she calls herself Dagger after the ice cavern to cover up who she actually is. The plan doesnt really work out but she stays Dagger (or whatever you name her) for the rest of the game anyway.

      Also, if you got the Namingway card in Kujas room (or earlier in the card tournament by playing against the hippo kid by not having Vivi leave Treno and visit Quan's Dwelling, beginning of disc 3), then you can show a guy at Daguerreo the card and he will change any of your party's names as much as you want.

      @@erikofskullisland3987 I think that the developers could have added a final weapon for Garnet, with the name change card option. Although the Pearl Whisker and Racket found in the Chocobo quest are good, would have been cool to had a white mage rod with racket attack, made with all the Summon Stones, massive Str and MP boost!

    Watching this video again, I wonder what the game would do if Garnet was immune to sleep in the Black Waltz 2 fight. You'd have to hack it but I wonder if it's a special move particular to Black Waltz 2, or I'd the game ending ia triggered by just rhe action.
