Gau's Skill- Leap/Rage
Gau's skill is perhaps the most unique skill in the entire Final Fantasy series. You first need to visit the Veldt, with Gau
in your party. When you go into battle, use gau's Leap command. Gau will then leap into a pack of enemies, and the battle will end.
Go around on the Veldt fighting enemies, and Gau will eventually reappear. When you get him back, he will have learned the strength, weaknesses, and abilities of the enemies he lept into, and returned from. While in battles, use the attacks of the enemies he has learned with his Rage command. While in rage, he will become uncontrollable, using only the attacks of that enemy until the end of the fight or he is KO'ed. Below is a list of the enemies Gau can learn.
The first column is the enemy (of course).
the second is their main attack. This attack is used almost 60% of the time. otherwise the attack is a basic hitting one.
The third column gives you the statuses Gau will gain when he goes into that enemies rage.
The fourth column shows whether or not he becomes immune to sudden death attacks. If there is a yes in that column, he cannot be hit with sudden death.
The final column will tell you if he becomes susceptible to undead qualities. This means basically the same thing as him wearing the Relic Ring. If he has this status, and someone casts Cure on him, he will take damage. That said, if Doom is cast on him....
The choice of what enemy to use should be carefully weighed. This list will hopefully help out.
