Nihilarian posted:Are those Mini Dragons Dragondarch is grinding on worth the two Thunder Rods he has to break to beat each group? They're apparently the best source of experience outside of stuff like the Shield Dragon which they don't have the classes to beat. He does go grinding on Wild Nakks for money to buy more rods though (even though the Black Flames give more money).

I did my run on FFV gba with my DSL last year, I couldn't play it on either my SP or Micro due to the cart I ordered not arriving on time. This year, instead of choosing to play that cart, I bought the IOS version because it's on sale

Twelve by Pies posted:They're apparently the best source of experience outside of stuff like the Shield Dragon which they don't have the classes to beat. Makes sense. Wild Nakks are closer to Karnak for actually buying the rods. Of course, from what I've heard of this guy, I'm pretty sure that's not the logic.

To be fair the logic is probably that the Nakks are faster and easier to kill for that party even if Black Flames technically give more money.

My first FJF got me, if I remember correctly, Thief/Mystic Knight/Ninja/Chemist. I'm figuring that this time, I'll have a bit more of a challenge.

I just started watching the stream and I looked at DD's two red mages, and I thought "that's odd, can he avoid using dancer?" It took me a few minutes to realize that he doesn't have Dancer yet.

Also unless you have fortitude of adamantite, do not read the chat, holy poo poo. It's so full of incompetent dragondarch hangers-on that it's mind-rending.

Why does DD keep doing save-reset-load cycles? Something about gaming the RNG I guess?

puwexil and HappySquid are more or less head-to-head, and DD I guess is way behind since he doesn't have all three jobs yet. Is eLmaGus ahead or behind puwexil and HappySquid?

I think ElMagus is ahead of everyone at this point, as they were talking about some kind of Killer Bow activation that gained him a ton of time in addition to him just being further in the game.

eLmaGus got the Killer Bow proc on the Dragon Pod which saved him a ton of time, yeah. DD also mentioned that if you have Beastmaster you can catch Aquathorne and release it against Dragon Pod for a chance at an instant kill, I found this pretty funny considering that someone got banned last year from his chat for telling him to use that strategy against the crystals.

And because he's DD, he must counter kill Archeoaevis, rather than simply murdering him due to being level 32.

Don't worry DD will catch up because he got all the grinding out of the way already he won't and he will grind again Edit: hehe DD's is not only ineffective at speed running but also the most boring way to play the game. Oh I'll just grind until I can brute force everything

If you dual wield rods, does the elemental boost stack? How about other elemental boost equipment, like Gaia's Gear and Magus Rod?

How about other elemental boost equipment, like Gaia's Gear and Magus Rod? Negative, they're the same bit. If you dual wield a rod and break one, though, you DO get the boost on the one you broke.

Nihilarian posted:If you dual wield rods, does the elemental boost stack? How about other elemental boost equipment, like Gaia's Gear and Magus Rod? Elemental boosts don't stack. They're either present or they aren't. Elemental boosts of different elements from different sources do stack, however. So, an Air Lancet and a Gaia Gear will give that character Air and Earth boosting, but a Sage Staff and a Rune Chime won't boost Holy more than one or the other would.

Update: As DD enters world 2, Magus is already hiding in the moogle cave while Moore burns, and puwexil and Squid both are in Barrier Tower.Nihilarian posted:If you dual wield rods, does the elemental boost stack? How about other elemental boost equipment, like Gaia's Gear and Magus Rod? Dual wielding rods does boost the broken rod, I believe. If you're asking if it would be boosted twice, then no, I don't think boosts stack.
