High health/Max Lives?

[cheat-master30]

Do you always try and have the max amount of lives in the platform games or the max health in RPGs? I generally do, except in Paper Mario. The reason not in Paper Mario is because of that nice combination called 'Danger Mario' where you have less than five health and like 50 Power Rush badges to do huge amounts of damge to everything, ending all battles in the first turn, even against bosses. You could also go even further and be at 1 HP, which, with Mega Rushes, would give you five more damage on top for every equipped Mega Rush badge.

I remember that though. Killing four Elite Wizzerds in one shot with Multi Bounce, and depleting all of Rawk Hawk's HP from 40 to 0 in one Power Bounce attack.

Thanks to that I got through the Pit of 100 Trials for the second time, and way easier.

Genrally I get it high, although some game I don't if it's dissadvantage from my view, e.g FF10 You can go from 9999 hp to 99999 but I didn't because it takes longer to heal even if you have full heal... >_>

Don't those RPG games have instant death attacks anyway though? Making going too far in what you said a little pointless.

[Dr.Aaron]

Yeah some of the monsters hit you for 99999 anyway, or do no damage but you drop to the floor, although its hard to kill penance(the hardest boss in FFX/10) without 10000-99999 health.

That's generally why I stick to Mario and Legend of Zelda games, as I don't know if I am the kind of person who would like a really deep, strategic RPG game.
