Psycho Edward bug

The Psycho Edward bug is a bug from the game Final Fantasy IV

Normally, when Edward is low on HP, he automatically uses Hide, to protect himself from battle, but also making it difficult for him to be healed, and making him unable to attack. This, coupled with his mediocre stats and relatively weak equipment, makes many people see him as useless. However, there is a simple way in the GBA remake to make him a force to be reckoned with.

If one casts Berserk on Edward, he will attack nonstop, as is usual for someone under the status. If he runs low on HP (Weak/Tornado works best), he automatically hides as usual. However, after he automatically hides, on his next attack, he wll appear again to attack. Despite being on the screen again and still attacking every turn, Edward is still counted as being in 'Hide' status, making him invunerable to all attacks!

There is only one drawback to this bug; if all the other party members have fallen in battle, he will 'come out' of Hiding, as is usual. Doing so means very little chance of succeeding, as Edward is still Berserked, and will have minimal HP.
