Time to Slice! Art by Rytellia

In Final Fantasy X, the Overdrive ability unleashes massive damage and if you can get up the status bar fast enough. Most times, people have enough of a bar to make it 1 per boss fight and keep slowly winding down and then spend a huge amount of time between boss fights getting up the bar again.
