Sneak glitch

The Sneak Glitch is a glitch in Final Fantasy IV that involves Edge's Sneak ability and allowing other characters to equip any weapon or shield. Essentially, the steps must be followed as shown, and there cannot be any number of those weapons or shields in the player's inventory:


 * Enter a battle with a monster with the preferable Steal
 * Edge must successfully steal whatever the player is trying to steal
 * The NEXT person whose turn comes up MUST be the one to equip the item or the trick will not work. In order to get the person the player wants to equip the item with easier, it is best to have only Edge and that character alive during the fight.

A downfall of this glitch is if the equipped Weapon or Shield is ever removed from said character, they cannot re-equip it unless this trick is done again. Also, at first that character's stats will not change, but if a player goes into the Equip screen, look at the character, and then go to the Status and look at the character, it will correct itself.
