zolthorg posted:SNES doesn't have horrible portrait art though, I actually had to use a replacement patch that puts even dumber art in place this year. The portrait art ranges from OK to bad. I'm just as glad to not have it since I'm doing the SNES version this year. As for Cara versus Krile, I'm not saying it's more natural. I'm just saying I like it better. (On the other hand, Quelb is hilarious.)

Poque posted:yes and you get the added benefit of not having to play the godawful DS version! 4c may still pronounce it SEH-sill though Ds version is good. It's the only version of the game that's actually challenge. It'd be better if that weird ability system wasn't so esoteric tho.

Yeah, let's not kid ourselves. If you're deciding on a platform based solely on its translation, GBA is #2.

I think that's the first time I've ever seen a Ranger as the most useless member of a squad. ('goon has heavy armor, and thus makes a better Mix/Blue bot)

Surprisingly dosing someone up with +150 levels or so makes their Rapid Fire do a shitload of damage, who knew? E: This was also funny.

I got linked here from Elentor's excellent FF7 LP thread, and have decided to do a fairly blind run of this Four Job Fiesta thing. Looks like I'm using monks to start. One question, though. How long does the fiesta last?

All right. I got the only legendary weapons I care about for my Time/Red/Geo/Dragoon run. I have Meteor. A bunch of poo poo I had to fight to GET Meteor absorbed Holy for some idiotic reason making the Holy Lance useless but now I can just drop space rocks and Lenna on stuff for the rest of the game. At this point, I think the only thing I need is enough HP to survive NED and I'm good to go.

Never thought Equip Axes could be useful, but the crystal guardians are vulnerable to Death Sickles (and as I didn't get any element-absorbing gear nor have Float, that's pretty nice!). Except I never thought I'd need more than one Death Sickle... Ah well, the Berserker killed two well enough and Zeninage did the rest with some damage spread beforehand  . That German translation though...

 I'm not entirely sure what I did to deserve this. 5 runs. 5 rangers. And for good measure, 4 runs with no jobs til Fire Crystal. I am so sick of Rangers right now. Gilgabot why.

Chaos is DEFINITELY balanced toward later jobs. RK has inferred as much himself. You're doing yourself a disservice by picking it each time. Notice how you've gotten a grand total of one wind job? There's a reason for that.

Ugh my new run included a blue mage and berserker but I just finished a run with a blue mage and I've had enough berserkers for the summer, so I job faired the berserker into a summoner and rerolled the blue mage, so we'll see what we get!

That would tend to favor non-Wind jobs simply by virtue of the fact that there are six Wind jobs and fourteen non-Wind.

I am a useless newbie, but have a Blue Mage and a Chemist; can somebody explain to me how to take advantage of this? I know you can mess with levels using Dark Spark and Dragon Power and then Lv5Death them, but what other fun/stupid tricks are there? Oh, and does Dark Spark round up or down?

No, there's some tweaking going on. http://www.reddit.com/r/ff5fjf/comments/3bfst2/is_chaos_mode_broken/ He won't say exactly how chaos mode works but it is clearly weighted away from the wind crystal.

Beastmasters are fun and not fun. Fun because you get to use attacks you couldn't use otherwise and some of them are pretty good... but not fun because you can only use them once and the process of acquiring them is annoying and time consuming as heck since it involves math since I don't have access to Libra or Scan.

Hey guys I'm sort of sitting in my second night of a blackout with just my Vita to keep me sane and a rapidly diminishing iPhone battery. I just unlocked Bard from the Gilgabot making my current composition white mage/time mage/bard and I have no idea how to set up three support classes and what I should even do with bard!! I'm mostly posting it on here because I know there are guides but I don't want to kill my phone faster flipping through a dozen wiki pages, please help! D:

It basically trivializes most random encounters, and even some bosses. Like Omega. Later on, you get access to the stat buff songs, which make things even easier. Between Haste and white mage, you shouldn't have any problems surviving, but you're going to be depending on your Earth class for offense.
