Final Fantasy VI items/Item farming

The following is a list of rare and powerful items the player can farm for in Final Fantasy VI. There are three ways to acquire items - Steal them, win them as drops, or use the Ragnarok Magicite to turn the enemy into an item. Ragnarok can normally only be summoned once per battle, but there is a simple trick to be able to use it over and over until Metamorphose succeeds. The player must summon Ragnarok, then, without any other party member taking action, have Gogo Mimic them to summon Ragnarok again. Gogo can then Mimic himself over and over to keep summoning Ragnarok as long as no other party member takes action.

Elixir
Elixirs can be stolen from Magic Urn, Spitfire, Peeper, Great Dragon, and Crystal Dragon. Of these the easiest to farm Elixirs from is the Peeper, as it is absolutely no threat to the party and can be found in groups easier than the other noted enemies. The first two tiers of enemies in the final battle - Visage, Long Arm, Short Arm, and Machine, Magic, Tiger, Power - have Elixirs as common Steals. In the Gameboy Advance version of the game, the player can replay the final battle several times to farm Elixirs and other items from the bosses.

The Apocrypha, Dark Force, Behemoth, Fiend Dragon, Slagworm, Cruller, Still Life, Goblin, Dragon, Landworm, Enuo, Face, Behemoth King, and Level 70 Magic, can be Metamorphosed into Elixirs. But due to the random nature of Metamorphose and its low success rate, it is simpler to steal Elixirs from Peepers and other enemies.

X-Ether
In the original Super NES version of the game, there is no way to farm X-Ethers, as the only enemies that drop them or have them to Steal are bosses. In the Gameboy Advance version, the Vilia, Magic Dragon and Fiend Dragon in Dragons' Den have them to steal.
