Final Fantasy games have featured hundreds of different items over the years, but some of them have been so powerful they’ve ended up being near game-breaking.

  1. Rikku's Hyper Mighty G Mix was insanely useful for toppling Nemesis. Because normally that boss can instant KO a party members (and fairly often the entire party too) whenever it wants. Hyper Mighty G let's the party just get back up again. And if Rikku has the Comrade Overdrive Mode, she'll get back up with full Overdrive bar, letting her use it again.

    Hyper Mighty G was rather useful against Dark Anima too (another boss which KO's party members left and right).

    Another useful Mix was either Hyper NulAll, or Ultra NulAll. While it had a bunch of effects (most of them useless), it did instantly grant Cheer x5. The physical damage reduction it provided was needed vs bosses like Dark Yojimbo and Penance.

  2. Make a Deathstrike weapon for Rikku. Use Mug. Deathstrike+Mug has a 99% chance to inflict Death on the attacked target. This isn’t a bug, it’s a hidden feature. Combined either Rikku’s speed, it makes her into an absolute assassin.

  3. Done most of these myself. I play Final Fantasy a lot and have much to say on this. Hero Drinks in X-2 could be argued that they are the rarest item in the game. Golden Apples and Soma drops weren't the only HP up item in the series (like in FF8).

  4. Really? Hero's and holy wars from ff8 when aura stones exist? Who needs to be invincible when everything dies to lionheart, degenorator, the end or just spamming the same 2 moves over and over with zells limit.

  5. Kraken Club – FFXI

    It had an absolutely game breaking attribute to it in the form of “Occasionally attacks 2-8 times”

    For an item that had this chance every few seconds, pair it with a Dark Knight’s SoulEater, Last Resort and Blood weapon, the damage it could do was absolutely INSANE.

    Even to this day, kraken clubs easily go for over 400 MILLION Gil.

    It only has a drop rate it 0.8% from a specific BCNM fight, but it was absolutely worth it if you got it

    We had a joke for it: “Kraken Club – occasionally attacks Once”

  6. My first time play FFX I got stuck on the third fight with Seymour(the fight in the icy mountains). I failed bunch of times and spent some amount of time grinding for lvls but couldn’t beat it until on one try I was messing around with ingredients to mix with and accidentally made the Pineapple Grenade, it silenced and blinded him making the fight simple.
