Really "Time Mage" is a bit inaccurate; it's also a space mage, given the teleports/gravity powers/pulling meteors down from the sky.

It's okay if you have any questions.


The original Japanese name literally translates as "time-space mage", but that doesn't fit in the English display space.

You may recall that the early fan translations translated the !Time command as !Dimen instead.

Time and gravity are interlinked. Could also call it space mage.

Please provide a screenshot of the equipment screen and one of the wielder attacking NED

I've got a Mystic Knight for the first time in a run and this is definitely one of my favorite classes now. Messing around with the Ancient Sword, Poison Blade, and Break Blade, and actually using these status effects to good use is unbelievably satisfying.

I'm aiming for a full power Brave Blade because I haven't done so before, and I accidentally ran into a Sandcrawler around the Moogle Forest. Instead of resetting, I just messed around with Break Blade and won for free. This poo poo rules.

I also rolled a Summoner and a Chemist, so the game's just loving broken under my knee already, but I still love learning about just how fun this class is.

An inefficient way to grind. One year a guy named Dragondarch was one of the runners who start the fiesta. He had some very odd ideas for strategies and that was one of them.

dragondarch is a ffv speedrunner kind of infamous for his weird routing decisions. One of those would be breaking rods to grind magic dragons. It's not really efficient at all.

If you did berserkerrisk (I did) do you definitely get one for sure?

edit: I tried regchaos this time (just did reg last time) and it didn't really click for me that once I get the wind crystal (I did last night) I can't choose red mage. Then I was like 'ooohhhhh'. I'm about to do the canal right now, is that the ghost ship section? I don't remember much about this game at all. Is the red mage crystal far? Do you get all the crystals pretty fast?

edit 2: someone suggest me a challenge I can give people in this thread? or is it too late? for me to donate money if you do *thing*. I told my friends I'd give $20 for anyone who finished it and got a single taker. And is there anything I can get in on or is it a bit late?

I'm pretty sure you are guaranteed at least one berserker if you risked it, though it depends on how much money they raised.

You get the first three crystals pretty fast, then it's kind of a wait for the Earth crystal. The red mage crystal is the next one, so you're pretty close.

Feel free to make a challenge (or :toxx: as we call it) whenever you want, it's not really something that has a deadline (other than 'the fiesta is over' obviously).

The feista officially ends August 31st.

Four Berserkers completed, thank you for the wonderful manga Miura you will be sorely missed.

The concept of having to setup and outfit my team before any key battles and then setting them loose is cool, I just wish there wasn't so much HP or level gating due to how uncontrollable they land up. Playing the steam version has some wackiness to it as well (no Rune Axe fun with negative Magic) where they target from right to left (which makes Necrophobe interesting). Though it also means I can setup a hotkey script and literally turn it into an AFK game.

Biggest roadblocks: Liquid Flame, Exdeath (castle), Twintania and NED himself. The worm was front and center for all of my 'zerkers to clobber. Death Sickles stayed relevant the whole game and helped with grinding here and there. I appreciate the suggestions in the thread/discord, they really helped me out!

I'll probably go for another run later this month (750 so no berserkers...).
