Countblanc posted:what did Chaos end up doing, just assign jobs indiscriminate of if you have crystal access? I think I read somewhere it was weighted a bit towards later classes, but I could be wrong. But otherwise, yeah, it assigned you any job. excluding mime and the bonus dungeon classes of course.

In Best I'd put white/blue mage. Both can buff and heal the team. After that, Ninja/Knight to really give the team damage. For worst, thief or geomancer.

Got my last job for my 1st run. Ranger/Zerk/Zerk/White. Pretty good, can give Ranger rapid-fire or !white where needed, White Mage can get !animals, Equip Bow or Axe, I guess. Give them some offensive move before Holy. And the Zerks can get equip bow and !white for rune axe.

Oyster posted:Having a Summoner, is it worth it to buy Chocobo/Sylph/Remora? I'm thinking if !Call only pulls from available summons I'd like to only get Shiva/Ifrit/Ramuh/Syldra/Leviathan/Bahamut. Personally, I've never found !call that useful. With the gold hairpin, they don't cost that much MP. You can usually get to the next savepoint to tent/cabin before you run out. And versus bosses, you want to do the most damage, not sometimes skip your turn summoning Ifrit. Even still, the buyable summons are just not worth it !call or not. Also, be sure to get Phoenix. poo poo's awesome.

One more Tot for the pile. Team was Chaos Risk - Ranger / Berzerker / Berzerker / White Mage. Equip Bow ain't bad for a berzerker, some bows have better accuracy than axes and let them attack from back row. White Mage is just overall good and Ranger got to bring the pain with Rapid Chicken Knife. Lenna gives no fucks.

I'm right near the end of World 1 in my chaos upgrade run. So far, I've had Summoner / Dancer / Knight. I got to max !Summon, skipped !call, completely skipped Dancer by immediately upgrading when I got it and am working on maxing knight. I'll do the last upgrade because what's the point if you don't roll the bones. Even if I do get Berzerker last, I'll at least have two-handed.

Golden Goat posted:...I know it's gonna be a while before I get there but is it possible to take on the superbosses with this team? Beastmaster & Three Zerks I don't think a single beastmaster can stun-lock Omega, so he might not be possible, but Shinryu is possible, if maybe convoluted. You'll want to catch a Mammon (Tree enemy from the forest of Moore) and store it on a berzerker so you can still use catch in the mean time. Then, when you face Shinryu, have your beastmaster wear the mirage vest, and one or more zerks wear the reflect ring. Release the mammon which casts berserk on a random party member until it targets the reflected member and thus berserk Shinryu. From there on just make sure you refresh the mirage vest by changing the weapon you're holding. Its just that simple.

I did something similar last run by forgetting the magic lamp. I was all the way up to Twintania before I remembered. Walking back doesn't take that long, in my opinion at least. Really wanted the lamp to deal with Necrophobe's barriers and Ex-Death's butt.

Meow Tse-tung posted:It's been about 20 years since I've played this, but it's been a fun run so far. I have knight/Summoner/Bard, which seems like a fairly balanced team so far. How should I work bard in? I could give him summons as a secondary or possibly equip longsword or whatever, but iirc they have bad stats for both. Is he just going to be a songbot? Does it give any indication on when stats like speed/lvl are maxed out? A good thing about most of the abilities you get from leveling a job is they give the relevant stat(s) from that job. So if you give bard Equip Sword, they get the knight's strength score. Same with !summon and the summoner's magic score. I'd still go with giving him !summon, because even with the knight's strength, a bard is still squishy.

Meow Tse-tung posted:Don't the mastery bonuses only apply to freelancer and mime? Thats for maxing the class out, the individual abilites themselves also pass along the stats you'd need to use the skill, so they would be useful on any class. Also, I should note the !call ability doesn't give you summoner's magic stat so that will only be good on magic classes.

Well gently caress me. I've played this game so many drat times and I never knew the shop changed in Karnak after the castle explodes. I just never noticed that third guy in the weapon/armor shop that sells a spear, ninja sword, whip, and bell. I rolled Dragoon for my fire job and since Im using the Fiesta Mod, that was helpful information to find.

Run #4, "Dance All Night" complete. Red/Dancer/Dragoon/Dancer. This team was strong World 1, weak World 2, and Strong again World 3. Hardest fights were the 4 crystals and world 2 Exdeath. NEO wasn't too bad. Rush down the Almagest part as fast as I can. It only got it off once, which my dragoon jumped over and picked everyone else up. After that the fight was just a matter of keeping the last two parts at equal health. Grand Cross wasn't much of a worry with three people wearing ribbons, though my dancers got hit with doom twice and mini once it didn't matter. The physical part would punch them dead before doom reached 0 and the mini was at the very end of the fight. Can't wait to try #purechaos

Half of Dracula posted:My own Pure Chaos just got me Dragoon for Wind... The first spear available is the Trident in Jachol, right? Looks like it's daggers for a while. As I recently found out, Karnak sells a spear after the castle explodes, so you can get a spear a little earlier. Talk to the guy walking around the weapon/armor shop.

I have beaten Chrono Trigger and Front Mission 1. This seems like it might be a good way to actually knuckle down and beat it, if only because I won't feel bad asking for help. Nah, GBA is a "definitive" version. It has some good quality of life features over the SNES, such has being able to walk faster without needing a thief.
