Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation/VS. Murdaw, Round 3

VS. Murdaw: Phase 1
First of all, if you're playing the remakes, this is a fabulous time to put Carver on "Focus on Healing". Instead of having to guess who's gonna need healing on the next round, you can simply leave it to the A.I. to react to whatever happens during the turn. And if Murdaw fails to do significant damage during the turn, Carver will simply hit him with Knuckle Sandwich (~25-35 Damage if it lands)!

Do not try that if you're playing the SNES version; not only is the A.I. dumber, but it will ALWAYS ignore items. If it had a choice between healing one person for 1 HP by casting a spelll, and using an item that restores 999 HP and MP to everyone in your party for free...it would still choose the spell. Furthermore, even if it was that smart, the SNES version doesn't allow you to only have one person on a specific tactic; either everyone is on Focus on Healing, or nobody is.
