The hack didn't switch which enemies give the Dark Arts. It's just that multiple enemies can give the same Dark Art.

Back to the Four Job Fiesta thing, I have a question on the rules. Can you (and I assume you're supposed to) use abilities you've mastered in one job and attach them to another job? Or whoever you assign to your available jobs has to be "pure" and can't take any unusual abilities.

All right, I'll go ahead and do a hard mode run. Should be fun when I get white mage, white mage, white mage, white mage. Huh, whats with all the #berserkerrisk tweets at gilgabot? Lilli fucked around with this message at 02:51 on Jun 2, 2012 |

Welp, I'm in. I had already rolled some classes via random.org and was playing through after I heard about the fiesta in the LP thread before I realized this was actually a donation drive thing. I've decided to try out the hard mode, so this should be fun.

W.T. Fits posted:Yes, you can give your Berserker Equip Harps so that he can unleash the power of rock with his Rune Axe more effectively. Serious answer: Apparently you can as long as you're only using abilities your classes allow, and obey the challenge party makeup (i.e. once you have all 4 classes unlocked you cant have 2 of one class, you'll need to make them "trade places") An Original posted:can`t find this anywhere, is there a level cap? Like W.T. Fits said, no, though in challenges over levelling is generally looked down upon, but what constitutes that is going to vary from person to person. YourSuffice to say beating Exdeath at level 99 will probably be looked down upon. In for BERSERKERRISK. It's better to shine bright and briefly than not at all.

Well this is something. Versus XIII possibly rebranded as Final Fantasy XV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jjal3E6-sk0 I'd sure like to see this on Wii U.

They should rebrand Versus into the real Final Fantasy Unlimited because that's how much development time it seems to have at this point.

Oh why not. I've played FF5 a few times but never beaten it, I'ma do this and just see how far I get. If I do beat the game I will be very surprised. Though I'll probably play through normally in the meantime, at least to get used to the game again.

I was futzing around with an actual GBA run, but I tossed in for the Four Job Fiesta run. Expecting a much worse team than my manually rolled Blue Mage/Time Mage/Hunter/Chemist combo.

I'm not a huge FF5 fan (I think it's one of the worst of the early FF games) but it's still a great game and I regged for easy mode. This is going to be great!

I would like do to an easy run, and if I survive that well enough, a hard run after that. Is that possible, or is it against the rules?

I started playing my last run of FF5 like this then changed my mind because I wanted to mess around with combos I had never used before. A lot of jobs are much better than I thought they would be! Not geomancer though Edit: If anyone doing this run got Geomancer I'm sorry. Also a lot of jobs are effective at different points of the game so just because a combo is destroying everything don't get cocky! Someone post their jobs those are fun to look at THE AWESOME GHOST fucked around with this message at 08:23 on Jun 3, 2012 |

Not geomancer though Yeah, Geomancer is pretty lovely but it can reveal some obscure status weaknesses in boss monsters with its weird, unlisted secondary status effects. Ifrit, for example, is (uselessly, since he casts fire magic) vulnerable to Confusion

I think the Anthology crew used Bartz and X-Death. Regardless, Butz and Exdeath are both way better names than what they should be translated as

drat it, I was waiting on the rumored PSP re-release but I think I'm gonna have to play FF5 now. Just signed up, but I got a question. http://www.letsplaying.com/lets-playing/FF5FF/players.php What's the berserker risk mean? Edit: Oh, I see. It's another option to guarantee you an extra berserker. Yeah, don't think I'm that much of a bad dude

My four job fiesta was Blue Mage, Red Mage, Geomancer, Dancer. As far as damage goes, Red Mage is nearly useless late-game, Blue Mage is situational, and Dancer is highly unreliable. For a good part of the game, I was relying on the Geomancer skill for most of my damage. Sure, the damage was usually pretty crappy, but it was free!

Red Mage is actually very good at damage if you give him a Summoner or Black Mage subjob but with no real mages he just falls off very quickly. At least Dancer gets a bunch of Sword Dance buffing stuff eventually. Also for people playing who didn't know: Your subjob actually grants you stats. If you give a Knight !Summon 5 his Magic Attack becomes as high as a Summoner's. Some passive skills do the same - if you give a character Barehanded not only are his punches as strong as a Monk's, but he gets a monk's attack and defense stats as well. If your stats are already higher it doesn't give you anything though. This is also why the first third of the game is made trivial by giving everyone Barehanded and letting your mages punch poo poo

Registered for this year's Four Job Fiesta with hard mode and berserker risk, since I finished it last year. Team was Blue Mage, Mystic Knight, Ninja, and Dragoon, which was some fun synergy. Almagest is still a pain, though. Feel sorry for anyone who manages to get three berserkers, though.

Minrad posted:drat it, I was waiting on the rumored PSP re-release but I think I'm gonna have to play FF5 now. I have been playing with a party of 4 Berserkers for shits and giggles. It's enjoyable except for the Sandworm fight because apparently you have a 1/6 chance of hitting it with a Berserker instead of 1/3 like it should be, and then when you add in the accuracy penalty on Berserker weapons you just end up cursing the RNG. Though once you level up enough to beat it with a sane number of tries then a lot of the stuff afterwards is pretty simple because you're probably a bit overleveled.
