Here's a helpful trick to get your party ready for Kefka's Tower in FF6:
After you start in the World of Ruin and begin finding your party members, you may notice they are under-leveled or do not have the Magic Spells necessary to take on some of the game's later challenges. In order to level up your characters, one of the best places in the game is in a forest East of Narshe, on the Northeast part of the continent. The shape of the forest is similar to a dinosaur's head. There are some difficult fights against dinosaur-type enemies in this forest if your party isn't quite strong enough but this is a great place to gain Exp.
If Magic Points are needed, there is a desert just outside of Miranda that has "Cactrot" or "Cactaur" enemies, which give you 10 Mag. Points when you defeat them! As is the case in other FF games, they are difficult to hit, just use attacks such as Edgar's drill or Sabin's blitzes. There is also another enemy which you encounter in this desert that can wipe out your party with sandstorm-type attacks. They can be a little harder but here is a trick to killing them fast: first cast "Vanish" on the enemy and then follow it up with "X-Zone." This is pretty much an instant kill combo, and will net you 5 Mag. Points.
Please note that this trick also works when fighting "Wrexsoul" in the Ancient Castle that Figaro runs into when submerging. Just wait until the enemy disappears and cast "X-Zone" for a quick, albeit somewhat cheap, kill. Not sure if this trick works with other monsters or bosses but it should help speed along your late game party development.
