List of Final Fantasy XII victory poses

Template:Sideicon

FFXII-Congratulations — Congratulations screen.

After defeating a mini-boss or a non-storyline boss, as well an Esper, or certain powerful Marks, the current surviving Final Fantasy XII party members, including guests, perform their victory poses. The party stands in a formation—depending on how many have survived the battle—and the camera pans across each of them on the Congratulations screen, a screen reading "You obtained the Esper..." followed by the name of the esper and its title, or a screen reading "Mark Vanquished," with the name of the Mark.

The pose they perform is either a weaponless pose or specific to the weapon type they are holding, including if they fight barehanded. Each character has two weaponless poses, each performed with a probability of 1/6. There are also special cases where a character will only do their weaponless poses after defeating certain bosses.

Unlike in Final Fantasy X, the party doesn't speak during battle and thus there are no victory exclamations.
