Final Fantasy VI PlayStation Bestiary entry
The Death Machine, formerly called Sky Base, is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI, which appears in the final dungeon and the Dragon's Neck Coliseum.
Stats[]
Battle[]
Death (GBA).
It is a dangerous enemy, and uses various death attacks, such as the Death spell, Blaster, and Lv. 5 Death, which it casts at the beginning of every battle. Its special attack, Mind Stop, inflicts stop, and when followed by Blaster, it is guaranteed to KO the afflicted party member. Like most machines, it is weak to 
Lightning and 
Water, so Thundaga and Flood spells, and Strago's Tsunami, are most effective against it.
Coliseum setup[]
Death Machine can be fought in Dragon's Neck Coliseum by betting a Regal Gown. Their death attacks can instantly end the battle, but an easy way to win is to equip the character with a Reflect Ring; with its simple battle script, the Death Machine will likely destroy itself as soon as the first turn. If that does not work, the player can equip a Safety Bit, which prevents 
Petrify, 
Zombie, and instant death.
