Ablative posted:750 is "jobs that can break rods", named after the price of a rod. To be specific (Because it's not actually jobs that break rods anymore), 750 is White Mage, Black Mage, Blue Mage, Time Mage, Summoner, Red Mage, Geomancer, Bard, Chemist, Dancer. No-750 is everything else except for Freelancer, Mime, and GBA classes.

There doesn't appear to be an official one. Maybe take one of the boxarts and tack "Four Job Fiesta" on it somewhere? Or maybe the banner from RK's patreon?

Twelve by Pies posted:I could not disagree more. There's a lot of other bizarre changes that basically boil down to "No fun allowed." There's things like hugely nerfing certain attacks like Beastmaster's releases so Yellow Dragon/Zuu can't hit heavy targets, making it so Chemist's mixes can miss, making Shinryu immune to blind/berserk, and even bizarre things like removing Defender's ability to cast Protect when used as an item, This is all fantastic and a decent argument about it sucking, but I don't really see how any of that makes it worse than "Loading screen for opening the menu". Like, you are comparing "Cool glitches got changed, it sucks" to "Insanely aggravating to play at a basic level"

Mikl posted:In retrospect, this might have been a mistake Okay, everyone in the thread must now do this run. Honestly, I think you might be saved by how irritating this run will be. White Mage first crystal is always boring as heck, Dragoon sucks, and Beastmaster + Berserker sounds like an irritating combo. Maybe if someone burns money to get ninja instead. But probably not, you're likely to get your bank dried up! Supremezero fucked around with this message at 20:16 on Jun 2, 2017 |

Samuel Clemens posted:White Mage/Berserker/Beastmaster/Dragoon sounds like a really boring team to play, honestly. Not hard (you've got White Mage after all), just uninteresting because of the lack of synergies. Seems like it basically devolves to "Give WHM and Dragoon Capture so you get 3 captures, give Berserker a different weapon/ White to abuse Rune Axe, and give Beastmaster White Magic for more holy's"

Trasson posted:*Omega would be "fun". Technically doable, I think, but I wouldn't recommend it. Unless, of course, you're on the GBA version. In which case, enjoy your Omega Medal. Beastmaster gives Calm, so your problem with Omega essentially boils down to "taking for god drat ever". Since you need like 3 Calmers, that means your Berserker is on attack duty, and I think your only valid offense option is Equip Lances with Trident? Unless you enjoy missing over and over. Not that swapping out Dragoon for Samurai or Dancer would help any with Omega. So this one at least isn't on Dragoon, it's more on Berserker forcibly taking your attack slot.

5 Zerkers is pretty much the ultimate hell. "Oh, I got 4 zerkers, but I got a fifth job, so at least I have something else instead of the 4th, even if only for Neo!" *gets another zerker, probably keels over in horror*

AlphaKretin posted:Might want to include Time Mage in that list since it makes the crown completely free with quickleak and patience. I think the point was a job per crystal, but eh. Time Mage's probably more borked than Mystic Knight anyway. Is Mystic even particularly a big deal for Triple Crown? It's, like, a good damage source for Omega, and I think that's it? The big Water Crystal job for those purposes is probably either Time Mage or Summoner, I guess. Supremezero fucked around with this message at 17:07 on Jun 4, 2017 |

Darkoni posted:It's my third year doing the Fiesta and my first time doing Bersker risk. Doing Chaos as well. Fingers crossed I'm not gonna get quadzerkers but who knows. Just upgrade to PureChaos, dupes are dumb. It won't save you from Berserker Risk, but it'll save you from Berserkers that aren't from that, and we'll need like triple the donation total to get quadzerkers. And that's if there's no more Riskers.

Khisanth Magus posted:I have a feeling that my first pure chaos run will have both mime and freelancer. I think Mime/Freelancer was Earth only, like Job Fair, though I might be remembering wrong. Weird thought. Say you get 5th job with it being Freelancer, and you mastered your earth job (which, for the sake of argument, is Ninja). You get Ninja's benefits for being a freelancer. Stat boosts and free Dual Wield. There's nothing you can do about that. So, uh, what do, I wonder.

Mikl posted:I updated my run, it was random but now I've added BERSERKERRISK to it. I'm definitely going to regret this. Berserker's are perfectly fine when you've only got one or maybe two of them. Worst case, you have to KO it for a battle so you can learn blue magic or catch a monster or something. It's having 4 of them/having only them available that's the big problem.

Reiterpallasch posted:White Mages can set Silence or Berserk on Omniscient (this does not work on steam or mobile), then spam Blink to deal with his shockingly nasty autoattacks.
