The backrow bit is the games flag for using a long range weapon. No enemies have this bit, and for the SNES version of FF4, once the bit is set, it can’t be removed. This means if you equip a backrow weapon, such as the dwarf axe, then you don’t lose accuracy for being in the backrow for the rest of the game. \\ | The backrow bit is the games flag for using a long range weapon.

Noting that FF4 runs at 60 frames per second (ideally) at BS 6 you have ATB tick per second, while at BS 1 have 7-8 ATB ticks per second. While animations do stop the timer, assuming you take half a second to input a command on BS 1, thats 3-4 atb ticks gone, so if really need an atb advantage, especially early in a fight, you might need to turn this speed down. | Noting that FF4 runs at 60 frames per second (ideally) at BS 6 you have ATB tick per second, while at BS 1 have 7-8 ATB ticks per second.

If you need your characters to be as fast as the enemy, putting your slowest character in the middle will usually work. You might even try a dwarf axe, drain sword, or cursed ring to slow them down more.\\ | If you need your characters to be as fast as the enemy, putting your slowest character in the middle will usually work.
