Glutturn The Glutturns are Magic Pot - type enemies encountered at random in the Soul Shrine in " Final Fantasy VI " , sometimes more than once during the same string of battles . The four Glutturns ask the player to use a rare item on them , and if not appeased within a time limit , begin to attack the party with a variety of powerful moves . Their true point is to steal rare and valuable equipment from them , but this means enduring their power for an extended period of time until the item is obtained . Battle . The green Glutturn asks for an Ether , and uses several physical attacks every turn if one is not given . This can be nullified by summoning Phantom to cast Vanish on the party , or casting Vanish on each party member . It has a Force Shield to be stolen . Due to Phantom , this is arguably the easiest Glutturn to face . The yellow Glutturn demands an X - Ether and uses powerful status - inducing magic , including Cloudy Heaven . This makes it the most dangerous Glutturn . It has a Master ' s Scroll to steal , but the player can win these from Samurai Soul who also appears in the Soul Shrine , so the player is advised to give this Glutturn what it wants and avoid the risk , unless the characters have Ribbons . The blue Glutturn uses Punish twice every turn to instantly kill two party members if not given a Hi - Ether , and uses Blaster when killed to potentially wipe out the entire party . Vanish works again to make Punish miss , as it is a physical attack . This Glutturn has a Celestriad , but they can be won from the Brachiosaur , so the player may wish to pass up this Glutturn as well . The red Glutturn casts Ultima every turn and Heartless Angel when killed . Celes or Gogo can use Runic to absorb the spell ' s damage . This Glutturn has a Soul of Thamasa , the only way in the entire game the player can acquire more of them . Thus , if the player has Celes or Gogo in their party , it is advised the player brave the danger to acquire the relic . Strategy . The best strategy to stealing is to equip Locke or Shadow with Thief ' s Knife and equip Genji Gloves together with Master ' s Scroll , then use Quick ( not absorbed by Runic ) so that they can steal many times . There are times the Glutturn dies , so the player needs to heal the Glutturn so that the rare items can be stolen . AI scripts . Green .
