COM/COM/COM and RAV/RAV/RAV will get you through the game pretty easily, yeah. Stacking role bonuses is the way to go, when you can.

Ither posted:Unless I'm doing it wrong, Requiem for a Goddess is the seriously the worst DLC I've ever purchased. I dunno, I beat it on my second try. Took about twenty minutes. I guess I'll spoiler this, in case anyone wants to figure out a strategy on their own. Abuse Immortality; you shouldn't need more than a single segment's worth if you time it right. In Commando, he's nice enough to warn you before he attacks, and you have just enough time to switch and get a segment charged. You should have enough time to fill an ATB bar between attacks, so you can build the stagger bar then. I haven't figured out a good method for safely hitting him in Ravager; I tend to get a single attack off between his before jumping back to Knight to reduce the damage. Doing this, you won't take too much damage.

You learn Sin is Jecht pretty early on, but I swear I was properly surprised at the time. And I think that having to sacrifice a guardian to create the Final Aeon to fight Sin was a big revelation, too.

As far as I know, FFT 1.3 can only be played via emulator. You can find the patch itself at insanedifficulty.com, which should tell you what to expect from the mod. I'm guessing instructions are somewhere in there, or at ffhacktics.

I remember the FFT board at GameFAQs got really good at getting people past Riovanes, even if they couldn't abuse Yell+Accumulate or Auto-potion. But sometimes the best solution was to pray for a crit with a random damage weapon.

Sapozhnik posted:uhh do you seriously have to grind the same one or two lovely low level hunts to get anywhere in Comrades? For a while, yeah. Then you get to grind on the same one or two slightly higher level hunts. Pretty soon you can start punching well above your level, and in Old Lestallum you can start trading gil for meteor bits, which speeds things up. I'm still working my way over to Galdin, but the shape of the game hasn't changed much so far and I doubt it will after I get there.

NikkolasKing posted:The weird thing about the FFVIII Concert is there are two songs the band can serenade Squall and Rinoa with. There is a recurring motif throughout the game that is basically their love theme and that is one of the options for the band to play. HOWEVER, if you have the band play this song, Squall and Rinoa get into a fight and she runs away. I never knew this was a thing. I knew there were two songs but not that the scene changed like that.

corn in the bible posted:Holy is lovely now but it used to be the only real option. The instant-death stuff usually didn't work (and never worked on any enemy outside of Chapter 13) so Holy was the only reliable damage output. Holy owns, though. If you time it, instead of sitting in it, it does good damage and restores way more mp than it costs.

Weigraf is totally beatable without needing any sort of cheesy strategy at all. People jump to suggest abusing Ramza's stat boosts, but you shouldn't need to unless you're under-leveled/jobbed/equipped. And it's not like Ramza's not had to 1-1 a swordskill unit before. Riovanes 3 is way meaner.

Those guys will harass you across the entire open world. Like Gologle said, you can own them all at once with even a cheap magic spell, or walk away from them, but you should just kinda expect them to show up during every hunt or fight that takes more than a minute or two.

Episode Prompto is kinda bad unless you're really desperate for the guy's backstory or more Arenea. Episode Ignis has some cute gameplay elements and an *~alternate ending~* to the main game, and is probably the best of the three.

cock hero flux posted:the game presents it as an honourable sword duel but you can win that way because he's better at swordfighting than you are, I believe the standard strategy is to scream until you achieve unity with the speed force and then shoot him in the face with a gun 700 times before he can move I always wanted to think that this wasn’t the “standard” method, just one that had a good chance of working for anybody stuck there. Because most people would be able to get past it, even if it was a bit tricky for their Ramza. But I’m beginning to think that no, most people really are bad at FFT.

Barudak posted:I am attempting my fifth run of Final Fantasy Tactics, and if youve never seen me post it about it before, I hate this game. I just want to finish this thing, finally, so Id like to request the absolute most braindead overpowered setups, grinding tricks, and I swear to god Ill use them if cheats exists in War of the Lions. Auto-potion in Chemist. Grab the barehand passive from Monk. Use brave-boosting abilities to push Brave up--every 4 points in a battle will raise it permanently by one, to a max of 97. Since Brave boosts unarmed damage, and the monk passive makes it pretty good already, you'll be hitting real hard. Then become a Ninja, punch everything to death. With just Ramza set up like this, you can breeze through most of the game. With a second barefist Ninja, you should be unstoppable. This is a lot of JP though, so: You can gain JP "quickly" without gaining too many levels by hiring a level 1 jerk and tapping them lightly for an hour.

If you find you really like one of the boys's gameplay, you can get abilities to let you switch to one until the fight ends. It's kinda neat, but I didn't use it much because you have to use it for each fight instead of turning it on for an hour or whatever.
