Artificial mustache once worn by a circus ringmaster. Changes the Sketch command to Control.
Description
Fake Moustache, also known as FakeMustache,[1][2] is a relic in Final Fantasy VI. It changes the Sketch command to the Control command, making it a strategic relic for Relm. It can also be used by Gogo, who can equip the Sketch command and use Fake Moustache to change it to Control.
Obtained[]
Fake Moustache is found as a treasure in Zone Eater's Belly. It can also be stolen from Still Life.
Use[]
Fake Moustache provides no passive bonuses, meaning it should only be equipped if the player intends to use Control. Control is a very strategic, but also very situational, ability. Fake Moustache is mostly used when helping Strago learn Lore abilities, or in other specific encounters. This means that in most cases, Relm may prefer to use relics that boost her spellcasting ability, such as Earring, Hero's Ring, Gold Hairpin, Celestriad, or Soul of Thamasa.
If Fake Moustache is used, it is often best to equip Relm with a defensive relic such as Ribbon or Princess Ring. This is because if Relm is disabled by a status effect or KO'd, she will lose control over the enemy; additionally, while she is controlling an enemy, she cannot act herself. When used, Relm should not be the main source of healing in the party, meaning other party members should be given relics that allow them to cast more curative spells (and if Strago is being brought along for Lore anyway, he may be a suitable candidate).
