White Mage/Berserker/Beastmaster/Dragoon sounds like a really boring team to play, honestly. Not hard (you've got White Mage after all), just uninteresting because of the lack of synergies.

Not hard (you've got White Mage after all), just uninteresting because of the lack of synergies. Seems like it basically devolves to "Give WHM and Dragoon Capture so you get 3 captures, give Berserker a different weapon/ White to abuse Rune Axe, and give Beastmaster White Magic for more holy's"

It's "some people want to see a Beastmaster redemption tour, we want fork tower to not take eleven epochs, and we want berserker".

Wasn't Dr Tot also in memory of Mega64's at the time abandoned FFIX LP? Obviously this year's name pledge should be Mario. Alternatively Frnkly since he and Tot are basically the same character.

Samuel Clemens posted:White Mage/Berserker/Beastmaster/Dragoon sounds like a really boring team to play, honestly. Not hard (you've got White Mage after all), just uninteresting because of the lack of synergies. Lack of synergies? White Mage gets... ...Equip Axes from Berserker for actual pre-Holy offense. ...Ditto for Equip Whips from Beastmaster, plus !Catch never goes out of style. ...!Lance for infinite MP from Dragoon Berserker gets... ...!White from White Mage for amped Rune Axe/Gaia Hammer power ...Equip Whips from Beastmaster for speed and accurate back row power pre-Gaia Hammer ...Equip Lances from Dragoon if you're going Shinryuu hunting, although I'll admit the Whip's a better option in every way. Beastmaster gets... ...!White from White Mage for boosting the spellcasting whips (plus, you know, it's White Magic, it's always good). ...Berserk from Beastmaster to boost lackluster attack power through randoms, or Equip Axes because you got multiple Death Sickles and they're good for most of the game. ...Okay, so there's nothing really from Dragoon that's too exciting. Dragoon gets... ...!White is always good, but that's not really a synergy. ...Equip Axes for three more points of Strength! ...Equip Whips because the imagery of doing a jump attack with a whip is funny? Okay so Dragoon's mostly a nonstarter with synergy but that's the class's biggest con anyway so whatever. There's a lot of stuff working together and it sounds like a fun team to run with. Powerful enough to have an easy time with everything*, but not so strong you don't have to think. *Omega would be "fun". Technically doable, I think, but I wouldn't recommend it. Unless, of course, you're on the GBA version. In which case, enjoy your Omega Medal.

I had Monk/Berserker/Beastmaster/Dragoon back in 2013, and it was eminently unfun. I can't imagine replacing the MNK with a WHM would really improve things much other than dying less.

It's a team where the job with the most synergy is freaking Berserker, the job that literally has one useful ability to pass on.

Trasson posted:*Omega would be "fun". Technically doable, I think, but I wouldn't recommend it. Unless, of course, you're on the GBA version. In which case, enjoy your Omega Medal.  Beastmaster gives Calm, so your problem with Omega essentially boils down to "taking for god drat ever". Since you need like 3 Calmers, that means your Berserker is on attack duty, and I think your only valid offense option is Equip Lances with Trident? Unless you enjoy missing over and over.Not that swapping out Dragoon for Samurai or Dancer would help any with Omega. So this one at least isn't on Dragoon, it's more on Berserker forcibly taking your attack slot. Supremezero fucked around with this message at 02:18 on Jun 3, 2017 |

Supremezero posted:
Rune Axe with !White would punch through just fine. Base 47 attack with an M of 32 (Fariszerker with !White 6 at level 40) means average damage of 1504 a swing, vs a Trident at base 76 attack with an M of 17 (Fariszerker at level 40) for average damage of 1292 a swing. Even if you put a 10% malus on the Rune Axe due to misses, that's still 1353.6 an attack, better than the Trident.

Hmm, last year I successfully finished 3 zerkers and a dragoon (and I didn't even sign up for berserker risk, Chaos just hated me) so I think anything I get dealt is gonna be easier.

5 Zerkers is pretty much the ultimate hell. "Oh, I got 4 zerkers, but I got a fifth job, so at least I have something else instead of the 4th, even if only for Neo!" *gets another zerker, probably keels over in horror*

So which option has a better chance at crazy team shenanigans? Chaos risk or pure chaos risk?

Nomadic Scholar posted:So which option has a better chance at crazy team shenanigans? Chaos risk or pure chaos risk? Well, the difference basically comes down to "Things other than Berserker can be duplicates" vs not, so Pure Chaos.

MotU posted:it only doesnt make sense if you take the 'pure' to mean absolute chaos Unless you play the Extra Spicy variant of the randomizer Worms just put out. Oops, Faris is a thiefgoon with Equip Ribbons. Also, I have realized that Monk's utility goes completely the opposite direction once you replace !Kick with a command that isn't hot garbage.

Pure chaos. Should be fun.KataraniSword posted:Also, I have realized that Monk's utility goes completely the opposite direction once you replace !Kick with a command that isn't hot garbage. Honestly, if the default command were !Focus, it'd be a great class.

Make !Focus the default skill for Monks and recycle the !Kick slot so Red Mages can learn !Red Lv4 (and therefore also become useful for more than just Dualcast), kills two birds with one stone. Just needs some thinking for the other bad jobs.

Last year was the first time I've cleared FFV, but I still felt lost and had to use a guide a fair bit. I'm hoping to just play through without, and maybe take a shot at Omega and Shinryu as well. Still playing it safe and not going chaos for now though. Last time gave me Blue Mage, Bard, and Dancer with my Berserker, so I know I won't be having as much of an easy time this time around. I'm quite excited to join again.

Can Of Worms posted:Just drag a Final Fantasy V Advance (US only!) ROM onto the randomizer and get two randomized ROMs in return! You can even use patched ROMs, as long as they don't change job skills. That's right, you can randomize Fiesta Patch and Sound Patch if that's what your heart desires! The program will also spit out two text files that summarize the changes in each ROM.  The Gladiator was my second Time Mage and surprisingly both the Necromancer and Oracle were intact at least for Bartz. I know that those classes are never going to be used in a Fiesta but I still found it funny.
