The vanilla fiesta mod does nothing besides unlocking all jobs early, which someone doing any kind of chaos run should be perfectly ok with.  Well, it also makes Neo Exdeath a lot cooler, but that's it.I mean I understand the appeal of an unmodded experience, but the Fiesta is already a kind of mod.

I did Chaos Berserker Risk and all I got was this lousy Chemist. I wasn't expecting to have to read, just 60 hours of axing!

poo poo, completely forgot that this thing was going on today (well, yesterday now). I've still been distracted with my shiny new PS4. Don't know how many runs I'll get through this year (probably won't make my usual count of 7+), but we'll see. First job in my Normalrisk Fifth Job run is Knight. Really hoping I don't get Ranger or Bard for my Fire job because I've done Byblos with only Knights and Zerks before and that was unpleasant.

So in a Pure Chaos run, if one of your crystals comes up Mime do you just run three jobs until World 3?

 Unpopular choices in version and protagonist go! I am always torn between Mobile and GBA, so I decided based on my first job: it's Black Mage, so I don't need the mod, and Berserkers which I'm guaranteed to have are just strictly better on Mobile. Hyped as always! EDIT: Whoops, my new phone has a WAY higher resolution than the old one... Simply Simon fucked around with this message at 10:26 on Jun 18, 2017 |

I'm playing with the Fiesta mod and got samurai as my first job. Is there a place to get knives/daggers anywhere (besides Lenna's and Faris's starting gear), or am I stuck with two charachters punching for now?

Skeletons in the Ship Graveyard drop Daggers, I don't think there's any earlier option sadly.

Then Mythril Knives at Karnak. The Skeleton Daggers there are good, though, I picked up a ton with Freelancer. Anyway, got my "second" Berserker at the fire crystal. Man the Karnak 500 is easy when you have to grind Liquid Flame

Welp, Byblos went better than I expected, only a couple of deaths. And about 2 or 3 dozen resets, every time he dropped Protect after only 1-3 hits on him. And my winning attempt did see me dropping 3 Elixirs. Zerk actually ended up being the biggest help due to Two-Handed Mythril Hammer bashing him for almost 1000 damage (on high rolls anyway) every time he actually managed to hit. Byblos is still a fucker regardless. I should probably leave out the part where I worked out my frustrations after getting the legit win by abusing savestates to engineer a rematch with the RNG skewed in my favor, where I killed him in 3 turns by landing every attack and him not firing off any counters. May have been petty but it sure was cathartic!

RK manually goes through Job Fair tweets, so the new class might take a while to show up. I don't believe you get an actual Twitter notification either.

Got ninja and three berserkers. I steamrolled my way through world 1. Grinding Ricard Mages in Walse Tower to get everyone dual wield before getting any berserkers probably helped.

Samurai and 3 Zerks. World 1 was an exercise in making it rain. World 2 was an exercise in plowing through random battles with four killdozers (that sometimes made things worse, instead, oops Death Sickle procs on Reflect Knights.) World 3 is an exercise in "where's the best place to grind with three people who are too angry to take down an iron giant safely". There's no way I'm doing NED at Lv33ish, I need to get more levels. And maybe elixirs.

Got my last job! My team is Knight/Berserker/Bard/Dragoon. The last one is my favorite job (aesthetically anyway) and I have almost never been more disappointed to see it this time (the only time that's worse is the run last year where I got two of them in one run, after having gotten one for my first job on the previous run. Oh, and then I got assigned DRG as my first job for the run after that, making it three straight runs where they were the first. You better believe I JF"d the second one on that middle run and the first one on that last run). This is going to be a horribly slow run. But I am on Fifth Job so that last one will get replaced after a while. Kind of a shame though, with Dragoon and Bard both I could've damage raced Shinryu.

Heads up for anyone starting out on the Mobile version: do yourself a favor and grind for 10 minutes after getting the Wind Crystal to give everyone Thief Level 3 (60 AP, fourth floor of the shrine has 2 AP in the three Mani Wizard encounter). It's against the Fiesta rules, yes, but it is SINCERELY painful to play without Sprint. You move with it active at basically normal, tolerable speed. It's a toggle, you see, not a held button. It also extends to airships and such. Trust me, you want Sprint. Just never use !Flee and everything should be within the Fiesta spirit!

Today I started playing FFV for the first time, and gosh, it's really charming so far! Simple plot, but effective. I've got currently: two knights, two mystic knights. After having to backtrack through the entire fire ship dungeon to buy spells for my mystic knights, I then wrecked the fire boss and now there's a timed segment - but I've saved to get some sleep. Game is fun! I never would've ever played it without this challenge / SA bringing the challenge to my attention, so - thanks, guys! It's a good time.  ps. My dude is named Basch, because of Ondore's Lies.
