My goal every year is to surpass the amount of runs I did the previous year. Is it sustainable? No probably not. I will also be streaming at least some of my runs so everyone can laugh at my incompetence.

My guess: using the forbidden tag means you can't get the really strong classes like Chemist and Samurai.

When people refer to the Thief's Dash, are you talking about auto running on the field instead of holding a button? The GBA version has that too. Not to mention that you can fast forward through your running battles to speed up CK powering way faster than the mobile version.

NGDBSS posted:I know that's one of his dumb quips but I forget the context. Aegis/Flame Shield or something else? That one is referring to opening a chest with a Dragon Fang, then hulking out because he didn't notice, and assumed it wasn't there at all. This is because he didn't sleep for 24 hours beforehand. He once had to let the Aegis Shield burn, to get the Flame Shield, for reasons.

Doom Goon posted:Oh, there's a newish glitch for FFV GBA to dupe items if you're into glitching and have a Beastmaster. Unfortunately the wiki that had all those bugs and stuff has been down for awhile so you'll have to make due with this video. This is great. Really opens up some job combinations to be slightly less useless if they can all use the Chicken Knife. Granted, you already have Beastmaster so it's more of a time saver.

Kyrosiris posted:So since I actually have a decent paying job this year, my usual "10 cent per speed trap victim" pledge is A) not going to have an upper limit, and B) is also going to include "1 cent per snapped rod", so if you wanna see me donate a bunch of money at the end of the Fiesta, make sure you report these in Discord. We discussed it in the Discord and I'll let the thread know too; whatever Kyro donates for this, I'm going to match. Snap some rods, run the ruins on Fast Forward only!

BONESAWWWWWW posted:I see this thread every year and I'm thinking maybe this time I should take that as a sign. I've enjoyed a couple FF games over the years (favorite being 4) but only ever completed one mainline game (7). Like ultrafilter said, most of us go with the GBA version. Despite some sound and lag issues, it's probably the best version and has a good translation. Make sure you get the patches; the Discord has people that can help you out if you get stuck.

Classtoise posted:I mean if it's Only Freelancer, it also snatches title for "Literally the Worst Run" from Natural with a No Contest victory. If you define "worst" as "boring", sure. Freelancers even without secondary abilities are strong. Triple Crown strong, I don't know.

Classtoise posted:Don't they get literally zero abilities, though? The game just becomes "Hold A until you win". You also get rods. Full armor and weapons is a hell of a thing. You're going to have to think about some battles, and properly prepare for them, without a lot of room for error. It's not that hard but certainly not Hold A To Win easy, unless your A is on a pile of rods.

Depending on the time, it could take up to an hour or so for the floodgates to be opened, then the usually flurry of lag and Twitter restrictions before everything is sussed out. AFAIK, RK is in Japan and so his hours are weird. Its entirely possible he would be asleep by the time the run finishes. Admiral Joeslop fucked around with this message at 01:11 on Jun 18, 2018 |

Relax Or DIE posted:For a forbidden risk is seems like I got an easy draw, Knight/Zerk/Chemist/Gladiator. I might to ahead and use the fiesta patch so I can play with the gladiator for a while, even though if I understand how it works correctly it's gonna be busted all game. Bladeblitz ignores it, Finisher does not. This also means the Dancing Dagger triggers on Finisher which I recommend you don't do unless you want your Finisher replaced by a Mystery Waltz

Blue Mage is just slightly less broken than Chemist, and requires way less setup and item farming.

I'm going to assume "No Magic" means no Magic Command. Whether this is accomplished by never equipping Magicite (hurts a bit but not the end of the world) or just using the honor system to never cast Magic, I don't know. 6 can be broken wide open even without Magic. Cyan is probably the least useful out of the bunch in a no-magic run. Everyone else brings something to the table even if its niche. Terra - Morph, equips nearly everything in the game. Physical powerhouse. Locke - Steal/Mug Celes - Runic can help with certain battles, and is similar to Terra. Edgar - Tools are very good. Sabin - Blitz is amazing though less so if you can't boost his Magic power. Cyan - Sword Tech is slow and near useless, slightly better in the iOS/Steam version. Shadow - Throw hits hard and gives you access to some elements. Gau - Unchallenged King Of Everything. Setzer - Slots can be good if you know how to exploit them to get what you want, otherwise he's just slightly above Cyan. Strago - Lore has tons of great spells. Relm - Usefulness increases a lot if you also have Strago, can make some non-boss fights easier. Otherwise not that great without Magic. Mog - Dances are OK. Gogo - Depends entirely on the rest of your party. Umaro - Can lay the physical hurt down, bad idea for fights where you have to be precise with timing and attacks.

agradine posted:Does anybody else remember the first decade or so of this game's life, when nearly everybody thought Gau was almost entirely worthless?

agradine posted:My main party the first time I beat the game was: Celes, Locke, Strago, and Setzer. I would leave Gau and Relm on the flyboat. I was also an idiot pre-teen. I'm 90% sure that Relm has the highest natural magic stat in the game, giving her a place in a low level game. Everyone is a bit better if you allow magic in low level runs but that effectiveness is handicapped by their stats still.
