It's a judge sword. You can see it in the Bishop's Judge ability.

Iirc it's the weapon Judges use in FFTA.

It's probably more ceremonial than anything, I don't think anyone actually uses one to fight and you never get one yourself in either Advance game.

When I first played Tactics Advance I thought the Judges had really cool armor designs and were totally wasted on their bizarre role - surely such a name and design would be better used on a group of elite enforcers carrying out sentences directly! Anyway, FFXII came out and I felt validated.

To the point, Square needs to include Judge armor for players in Return to Ivalice, or I'm going to threaten to unsub on the forums but then not actually unsub.

the garleans basically wear judge armor anyways

They do, but I can't wear their armor either. I'm also not a huge fan of the colors over the regular metal color of Ivalice judge armor.

There is almost certainly going to be some kind of Legate-like class when we eventually arrive in the Empire to clean things up.

I hope and pray Nero and/or Gaius are major NPCs involved.

Can anyone link the preferred melds and role abilities for WAR at 70? I hit level cap over the weekend and this is the first time I've actually looked at melding.

Also, what's the preferable gear path now? Just run dungeons for tomestones?

Are you doing savage omega? If so tenacity > dh > crit=det > ss, if not, then DH > crit=det > ss

For role abilities you want rampart, Shirk, provoke, reprisal and convalescense

I remove Shirk if I'm in single tank content and add low blow so I can stun telegraphed cleaves

You keep Low Blow on in single player content because kicking robots in the junk is hilarious and no other reason.

In 4-person content I take Rampart, Convalescence, Anticipation, Awareness, and Ultimatum. Anticipation and Awareness are good for turbopulls and the increased cooldown on Ultimatum doesn't matter.

Also I meld tenacity/crit on my tank just because it's way less expensive than DH.

Low Blow is good but I think on Monk the dick kick should be more refined and classy, considering it's the martial arts class. They should mo cap some MMA dick kicks for it.

has anyone pointed out that Marche, the protagonist of Final Fantasy Tactics: Advance, eventually destroys an escapist fantasy world which results in his then-ablebodied brother Doned to become wheelchair-bound once more?

That's kinda bullshit though, because the grimoire transformed everyone against their will. It's not exactly ok to gently caress over everyone just for the sake of someone not being bound to a wheelchair.

99% of the time. I ran an LDR the other day and I was confused when I got no cracked cluster. Turns out Healers were in demand for that moment.

Does it base the cluster on whether your role was in demand when you queued, or when you actually went in? I haven't been able to tell for certain.

As a tank, I queued with a healer when healer was the role in need. We both got cracked clusters at the end so I think if you're it when you queue you'll get one, and if it switches to your role by the end of the dungeon you'll also get one.

I did the very same thing when I wanted to come back for the Heavensward launch after not playing since ARR 2.3 or something. Ask support and they should be able to restore your deleted character as they did for me. No promises though, but best of luck. :ohdear:

FFT:A gets a lot of poo poo for having dumb battle rules and such, but I thought the story was really good. The struggle Marche had to go through seeing all his friends and family enjoying themselves in this fantasy world, but knowing it's all an illusion, and an escape for the troubled Mewt. The fact that some people take away from the story the idea that Marche is being an rear end in a top hat for shattering the fantasy and forcing everyone back to the real world is interesting to me. It's fun to get away and play video games, or read books or watch movies, that take your mind of your troubles for a little while, but you can't run from real life forever. It's kind of sad, but it's an important message.
