I am the sort of doofus who will probably do this through savestates and incrementing the RNG. As a reminder:
  1. The Titan's Gloves can be stolen from Azulmagia. And it's his rare steal, yay!
  2. The Genji Armor can be stolen from the very last Gilgamesh, when he shows up to help with Necrophobe. You've also got to fight him after checking the Excalipoor chest or he won't show up later.
  3. There's one guaranteed Kornago Gourd in Quelb, if you give a Kornago to a frog nerd. Otherwise if you don't have beastmaster you only need to grab a rare steal from Omniscient. Assuming you also have a plan for not eating Return.
  4. There's one Gold Hairpin in the Barrier Tower and another in the Pyramid of Moore (not Exdeath's castle). The third is a rare steal from Famed Mimic Gogo, who will counter and oneshot you but thankfully won't go berserk unless you get him to <33K HP.

The original plan was three steals from optional world 3 quests, which was ruined by Odin’s protect ring not being a unique drop.
Genji Armor is the replacement for that. Titan’s gloves was just a bonus joke challenge.

Not only did I completely forget about this, but also it doesn’t fit the theme because that’s a mandatory fight.

If you want a garbage run type that no one should use, we already have natural.

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking too, so hopefully that was a red herring, and rk just has terrible taste in condiments.

I've never actually finished FF5 before but I'm thinking of Fiesta-ing this year. Should I just go with the standard ruleset or is there one that you think might be more fun?

I think normal worked really nicely for me for a first run since I was used to the order the jobs unlocked in. It's "surprisingly balanced", at least for FJF.

fool of sound posted:

My custom ruleset, something I call Super Natural, is a pretty fun variant: each character gets two jobs at random, from any crystal, no dupes. Each character can only ever use their two specific jobs. This gives each character a strong identify, and guarantees versatility, but also doesn't let you abuse one powerful job as hard by giving it to everyone. I usually do a run of it after my official chaos run each year.

This seems like a ruleset that could be tweaked to improve ff6 and ff7.

I'm adding another late toxx because gently caress it. $1 for every normal kill of the Tyrannosaur in the Moogle Cave, without exploiting its Undead status. That means no Phoenix Downs, no Healing Items, just a regular fight. The limit will be $25. Quote this or something of mine so it's easier to see, if you please.

Edit: It'll have to be the honor system unless you feel like recording the entire fight I guess.

is there a mod to play classes from the beginning? I don't really wanna play the gba version more than once but would pay for a 4 new class run

Fiesta Mod in the OP is for the GBA version, it does two things, unlocks all 25 jobs from the moment you gain control, and turns NED into a Cactaur with a mustache.

Phenotype posted:

Also, is it "cheating" to use the fiesta mod to unlock classes early? I can't imagine being stuck with 4 WHM this long just because you got 3 Earth Crystal jobs -- I figure it makes more sense thematically if each crystal gives you a new job.

That’s what the Fiesta mod is specifically designed for.

Also mix attacks are affected by magic so your blue mage will be the best at them.
Mix is much more versatile than blue, but to my knowledge it also is only single target.
I don’t know anything about cannoneer but I assume !combine outputs comical levels of damage?
