Omega is down!
After a few attempts where I just couldn't outpace Wave Cannon because Omega is so fast, I realized that I can, with a lot of luck, get my whole party under Haste without giving up Reflect Rings by using the Masamune on Omega repeatedly. After many false starts and a few attempts that were going well until Omega's double turn ruined me (Maelstrom would always mean a reset, and Wave Cannon almost always), I had a run that worked out to where Samurai Butz could revive Berserker Faris right before Beastmaster Lenna and Black Mage Krile's turns, so that Lenna could get a reflected Thundaga off without killing Faris, allowing Krile to get one off as well, and the three non-Berserkers would still be able to Elixir themselves in time after the next Wave Cannon. A couple of reps of that took out the last third or so of Omega's HP, so I only had to get lucky with two of its double turns. As an added bonus, the first time I revived Faris was right after Lenna and Krile had released their Great Dragons after Search - she got up, smacked Omega with the Rune Axe for 3500, and it Mustard Bombed itself for another 1500. It must have taken dozens of resets before everything came together just right like that.
Whew! That was intense, but it was a lot of fun. FFV is so good.
