I think I broke something[/Wakko Warner]

Anyway, out of a combination curiosity, irony, and topic change, whats your arrangement in FFV? I use Butz-Attack Classes, Faris-Speed, Galuf/(Cara/Krile) and Lenna mages.

Oh yes god forbid we talk about a game that 4 or 5 of us are playing, at the same time might I add which is a little rare around here.

Anyways

Loot is for nothing more than filling my pockets with sweet sweet gold or have i just screwed myself by repeatedly selling my bag of loot.\


FFV..my normal party was

Ninja/Sorc/Monk/Ranger/Fighter
Summoner/Geomancer
White mage/Time Mage

and the fourth was generally whatever I wanted that game, so it varied.

BUt seriously, I took one look at the character designs, listened to the schpiel, played the demo, its dead to me.

By the by, most of us have said that the demo isn't a fair example of FFXII gameplay...

yes and no.

Its pretty exact to what the game is but being able to set gambits to your liking makes it more playable.

Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck, fucking coincidences, I must have been away on the points that has been mentioned. Oh belgium, there's another fifty dollars gone and another pointless arguement. Oh well, cest la'vive.

edit: Is there still about a fifteen second delay between entering a command and the command being carried out?

Passive aggresive whining is totally the way to go.

Anyway, the commands take about three-five seconds to carry out as your meter fills (haste makes it about 1-2 seconds, so it's kickass). It's... Actually it's pretty much the same waiting on the bar to fill since FF...3ish? It just so happens the bar comes after you tell them the command, not before.

Oh! And you can interrupt commands on the fly if you need. Instead of attacking, you can stop the bar mid-charge to heal.

Depends on when the command is being entered, spells and abilities seem to have a cooldown period, regular attacks don't.

Oh, thats the ATB?
I thought it was poor programming. When I tried the demo, I entered a command, nothing happened, I entered it agian, etc, my entering canceling out the last command and restarting the "wait time". It was like, it LOOKED like a real-time, so it FELT wrong not BEING a real time.

Yeah, it's ATB reversed. And you can see the bar and all, so it's not like you have to wait an indeterminate amount of time.

Also, page 1337. Yay!

For the record, no, there is no armor training in 12.

However... the armor does give stat bonuses. Light armor increases HP when worn, heavy armor has more defense (armors) and increases strength, magic armor has more magic defense (hats), increases magic, and I think MP as well.

It also doesn't help that Penelo has some of the highest MP. There might also be the fact that she might have more quickenings; each quickening beyond the first you get gives you another bar worth of MP, at max giving you triple EXP.

Ah, THAT's what it is. She does have one more quickening then the rest. Thanks, now I gotta work my others guys to the darn things... though most are right there.

I recommend getting all of Balthier's first, not because they're necessarily better, but because Balthier is awesome and has the best lines.

Anyway, out of a combination curiosity, irony, and topic change, whats your arrangement in FFV? I use Butz-Attack Classes, Faris-Speed, Galuf/(Cara/Krile) and Lenna mages.

When I played, it was something like...

Butz was the attacker, Galuf was my "Tester", Faris was my white mage and Lenna was my black mage. Initially. Then the last two switched when they were done.


And by tester, I mean "Check out what the class is like". Stuff like, thieves, berserkers...And so on, just to make sure they'd be useful.

I did the same thing, cept I started Galuf out as a Monk so he had some ATK backing his magic, espcecially when.. (semi spoiler)

...he fights solo
