A lot of the fiesta runs on the Honor System and, as Kyrosiris said, we ain't cops. I don't think cops even know how to enjoy a game like FF5. If it makes it more accessible to know your jobs early, it's not going to invalidate your run or anything. Likewise, if you see the need to torture yourself with a White Mage Liquid Flame fight while praying that your next crystal ISN'T something that will choke and die against Ifrit and Byblos, that's your choice.

0.6 is going to be a while because the code involved crashes, but here's a teaser for what you can expect to see:

ACAB, even Fiesta Cops. That said, I will usually wait until I've reached the boss prior to each crystal (elephant, flamelady, clapperclaw) to tweet the crystal, then check after the fight is over.

So I've never done FFVFJF before, but I am finishing up my first run of the game, saw this thread, and thought it looked fun! The OP covers well what to do as a player, but how does all the charity stuff work? I.e. as a player, how do I make sure what I does gets counted?

Post screenshots in this thread of you fulfilling whatever toxxes you try to do. The people who made the toxxes will see it and donate accordingly.

There's a post on the first page (I think it's usually Post #3, after the fanart) that collects all the Toxxes in the thread. It hasn't been updated in a bit, but that's a good place to check. The Toxx will usually say what you need to do (and what proof, if any, you need to post). You can also always make your own Toxx and donate through the Four Job Fiesta site!

A couple of them use Carbybot on the Discord, but usually ones that count a lot of small things. (Rods broken, speed traps hit, Fat Chocobos summoned, etc.)

I got 10 people new to festivities so I put in my first donation set. If anyone else joins in *eyes vikingofrock* I'll do them in batches of 10, or when the run starts.

Lets gently caress Bro posted:edit: I was wondering something. I haven't played FF5 in a really long time (like, since ZSNES times) so i don't know if this would even be necessary. But is it acceptable to find out all 4 of your crystal jobs from Gilgabot right at the start so I can start planning out my party build, or is that cheating? I am playing just normal #reg I always do that for every run, because I determine who will be what job based on who has the best sprite for said job.

I'll be starting up a brisk Let's Play that will also be a long-form tutorial for new Fiesta players very soon here. Should hopefully both draw more attention to the Fiesta, and give people who're intimidated or lost a chance to see how it all works.

Mustached Demon posted:Dancer Buttz says hi. Krile's Mystic Knight outfit is also kind of blah, Lenna works much better for that visually if you roll one of those. As for Faris.... she's usually second-best in pretty much every job aesthetically, so you can't really go wrong with her but you also don't really have any truly exceptional choices that Krile or Bartz couldn't do better. Maybe Cannoneer, if you go !Advance.

I voted #voteBluBluBluBlu and that's both the default vote and not a mistake  I don't think I ever fully figured out the RNG, even with samurai goroh's docs. I do seem to remember taking notes and that it accessed the GBA RNG a lot more than I thought it did (as the hardcoded table is still there along with the two counters). I tried last year to do some funky stuff to get the European version to not be so random (I guess you can call it that) but didn't have any luck. That actually reminds me I wanted to check into something, maybe it'll be a late Fiesta project for me.

I always give each character the job from their crystal in the end. Keeps the decision-making easy.

Its been a long time but berzerker risk of random I think would do it too. But also a year or two ago RK put his finger on the scales and hosed with the exchange rate since he wanted it to be berzerker risk, not bercertinty. (I think that year if it was still 10bux perzerker it was a guaranteed 2+ per player). e: I think it was 2018 where he screwed with the numbers, since 2017 I had 3 with pure chaos.

I don't remember the last time I played chaos instead of pure chaos. #BERSERKERRISK is a modifier that only works on pre-registration and gives you a chance to roll Berserker on any of your crystals, no matter what kind of run you chose. Otherwise Chaos can give dupes of everything except the jobs that don't show up in Chaos at all: Freelancer, Mime, and the GBA jobs. Pure Chaos cannot have duplicates but CAN roll Freelancer and Mime. I hope he eventually changes things up. Pure Chaos should be all jobs in the game with dupes allowed, make Chaos all the jobs without dupes (and maybe without GBA jobs I guess)

Yeah, Berserker Risk can give you multiple zerks (depending on donations and RK meddling) on anything that isn't Normal.

I just posted in #ffv-rom-alchemy an updated Fiesta Patch that has ammo drops, so that Combine can be used before all 12 Sealed Weapons are obtained. The drop locations for ammo are the same as in Waddler's patch.
