Welcome to Gaia! ::

whilst under lucky 7s staitus your charictors ATB gauge should fill up at about dubble the rate of normal and you will always attack and hit for 7777 damage each time. (thoe when you natuary hit for more than that there is very little point to lucky 7s espescaly so when your useing 4-cut)

I never used that before too much trouble but Ortinbra is correct.

It's more luck than a pain... I've never gotten it. But, if your character gets even 1 more HP, the lucky 7 stat will dissapear.

no i think they only go to 1hp.

it happnes almost never anyway....i always wanted to see it but meh

Actually there IS a mathematical way to obtain the Lucky 7 status. Would anyone like to know?

First off, the character needs to have a maximum HP of over 7777.

Reduce your character's HP to something BELOW 154.

Go back aboard the bridge of the Highwind. Then equip the Cat's Bell item on your character. Walk around until the character's HP is EXACTLY 154, then de-equip it.

Go down into a battle, and use an action that will half your character's HP (Laser enemy-skill, Demi2). You should have 77 HP left.

Go to the start screen and use 14 Hi-Potions and 7 Potions. If done correctly, you should have 7777 HP, therefore, Lucky 7 status is induced.

When you are in Lucky 7 status, your character will attack the enemy 67 times, uninterrupted by the enemy or allies. Each attack takes away 7777, as you know. So 67 x 7777 = 521 059 HP.

Think about it. That's over half a million damage in one shot. Getting Lucky 7 may be tedious, but it would certainly make bosses or the WEAPONS a little bit easier. If you strategically planed out what to do after the character finished attacking and fell to 1 HP, taking on Emerald Weapon would be a snap. To my experience, using the Lucky 7 on Ruby Weapon only made things worse.

Hope it cleared a few things up.

Yes that is true, I wouldn't have thought about that! But then again, what if he attacked you twice in quick succession? Once as a different attack, and then Air Tam Storm? You can't be sure you'll have full HP at the time he decides to use it. whee Good chance though, if you spam Cure3/Megalixirs. Yay! biggrin

That IS much simpler than my method though, haha. I had all of this simple math, but not a lot of people would spend time trying to get Lucky Sevens. Er, that's not to say I spent several hours.....nevermind. Yes, who's a game nerd? Me. Proud of it.

Ooh, thank you for enlightening me on that matter! I must go try that now. heart
