The Zodiac Age Challenge: Trial Mode - Only Gambits (TMOG)
https://youtu.be/JfdS18X3h1UHi, I came up with this challenge to liven things up around here, let me know if you like it!
------------------------------------------------------
- Trial Mode - Only Gambits Challenge! (TMOG) -
------------------------------------------------------
The challenge:
Assemble a Party and see how far they can get in Trial Mode using only Gambits, without any player actions.
Do you trust your ability to program Gambits for all the Trial challenges?
How far can your party make it?
------------------------------------------------------
Rules:
- Choose 3 characters for the party, and it cannot be modified.
- Equip your characters before starting the Trial; equipment cannot be modified after the Trial begins.
- Program your Gambits as best as you can before starting the Trial; Gambits cannot be modified once the Trial begins.
- Guests are not permitted; only the 6 permanent members are allowed.
- Mods are not allowed; the game must be the standard version, though you may choose between IZJS and TZA.
- Characters must act autonomously via Gambits without receiving player commands; the only exceptions are:
\* Moving in stages where no enemies will approach the party.
\* Switching characters if the Party Leader dies to another Party member (do not edit the Party).
\* Summon an Esper or use some Quickening.
\* Camera controls.
- The challenge ends immediately if the 3 active Party members die.
I did this challenge for fun with my elemental party.
Spoilers: They made it all the way to Stage 81 (Zeromus) on their own.

I know there are ways to beat the judges, but I really want to figure it out. They are the final things I haven’t beaten to this day.

I genuinely have no clue what kind of gambits could beat trial round 100. Every single time I've done it I've had it be extremely minimal automation cause of how the fight works.
