Currently on W2 of my Chaos/Upgrade run. Having to rely on 4x Dancer for damage is painful.

I can't see myself doing #upgrade. That said, if I did, are you allowed to forsake the last couple of #upgrades? Like, if you rolled White Mage first and Mystic Knight second, could you just say "gently caress it" and ignore your third and fourth crystals altogether?

derra posted:Have a question for the team. Last night went to fight Archaeoavis, was around level 23 or so because my only offense was monk fists. Form 1 was low on health, my monk Focus crits for 600 on one attack, and Archy dies. Outright dies. Death animation, I get 10 AP, no transition into a later phase, no King Tycoon talking about how majestic the beast is. Killing Archaeoavis with a counter bypasses his revival script. It works on most other bosses/randos with an On:Death script, too, though I think Tree Exdeath still moves on to Neo Exdeath. EDIT: Also, only his last phase has the script so if you barf enough damage out to bypass the phases, apparently that happened too.

So, bridge Gilgamesh is curbstomping my team of Black Mage X2 / Dancer / Mystic Knight. I've been having a lovely grind-free time, but Wind Slash is doing more damage than 3/4 of my lvl 17 party has HP. I might have to break down and grind some.

I might have killed the phase with a counter, it was FF, just saw a big as monk critical and then the fight ended. This was the first time I'd ever gotten Monk, so explains why I hadn't seen it before. Thanks!

I'm just about certain I've seen an FF5 LP where Treedeath was killed without invoking NED. I think one of the Cannoneer abilities does it?

OzFactor posted:How exactly do axes work? They ignore 3/4's of an enemy's defense and have a large range of damage. They also have rather poor accuracy. A lot of axes have neat gimmicks too, like Death Sickle's Death procs, Thor Hammer working from back row, Rune Axe being strengthened by magic, and Earth Hammer randomly triggering Quake.

 Impromptu no750 run. About to land on the submarine in W2. Should be able to close out tonight for one more Dr.Tot run if I'm lucky! If I don't make it in time I'll donate $5 extra myself, why not fakeedit: Lenna and Faris have the best beastmaster outfits

After a terrible half-hour spent sandbagging Garula with four White Mages (not too bad, if you watch your HP, only took me one try), I rolled for my water crystal job. Mystic Knight.  (Running donation tally - $5: $2 for two days since start, $2 for two hours on the game clock, $1 for a wipe to Forza&Megissa.)

Just beat the crystals, after a very unlucky first try where Death Sickle didn't proc and I got Firaga'd to death. I should hopefully squeeze another Tot victory before the night is over.

Got to world 3 with relative ease. Blue Mages are no joke, and since I finally have hastega for my time mage it's nothing to just spam aeroga at poo poo until it dies. So which of the weapons/optional dungeons should I be doing for Blue Mage/Time Mage/Geo/Dancer? I know I need to get meteor, and I figure the magus would probably be helpful.

I've slowly getting through my run/first FFV playthrough. I have Enkibot at the ready, but are there any specific missable items or areas I should look out for so I can dick around and discover things without screwing myself? I assume you can't go back to different worlds, and my first job is White Mage so I got the drat flail.

I assume you can't go back to different worlds, and my first job is White Mage so I got the drat flail. Once you get to the fire castle, you'll do a dungeon in a steamship and after the boss fight have ten minutes to do a loot run. Use a walkthrough for that part to skip the Elixir chests since they all have trap fights. Anything with gil has no fights, anything with items has fights. Get the gil, Main Gauche, Elven Mantle, and if you have time the Ribbon (which may or may not be relevant depending on whether you get Dancer but can't hurt to get it) and Esuna (which you'll be able to use with White Mages but you can buy it a short time later so it should be lowest priority). There's also a boss at the end so save some time for that. Otherwise, everything else kinda depends on what jobs you roll. I'd ask again once you get your first three jobs revealed since there might be stuff in the last W1 dungeon or other areas you might want depending on your jobs.

Does the magic underflow glitch work on the advance version, or just on the snes version? I'm wondering if it's worth it to try and thief's knife the titan's glove so I can go Thornlet-Gaia Hammer/Titan's glove- Gaia Hammer/Time Mage/Time Magic-Rune Axe.

W2 Exdeath down, with only slight difficulty. Only took one try but Bartz didn't make it. I thought for sure giving him the Bone Mail would help against Vacuum Wave but nope, 1k damage regardless. Still, being able to deal half of Exdeath's HP right at the beginning of the fight was great. I loving love Beastmaster.

Go figure. I briefly used Thief in my Chaos Run when my first job was Samurai so I could get Sprint in the Steam version. Got that done way back at the fight with Magissa and switched back to Freelancer. My last class from the Earth Crystal was Thief. Since I will need to use items to heal, is there a good enemy to steal elixirs from?

Not completely missable, but useful things are the Frost Rod in the second town, Death Claw from the Karnak Castle boss, and two missable bard songs with some utilty. Reflect Rings and Staves of Light for W2 Exdeath and potentially a Power Staff for Shinryu in W2. I wouldn't call them missable per se, but the Magic Lamp and Wonder Wand have a lot of utility that someone playing the game normally wouldn't necessarily appreciate. In that vein, if I have dancer I like to hit up the Phoenix Tower for Rainbow Dresses (and to steal Reflect Rings for cash anyway).

Grinding enemies in the ship graveyard or around the library is probably your best source of elixers. High Potions should serve you from World 2 till the void where you can steal them from crystal dragons.

Since some people in IRC were asking for a "stealth" Fiesta patch without Neo Excactuar. I've tested it up to the Wind Crystal, so it should be fine, but I ain't taking responsibility if it melts your game or whatever.
