For those who haven't been keeping up, be sure to check out the changelogs. Mimes are still around and are most likely here to stay. At least, a lot more than what my previous post was indicating.

Speaking of which, there's a good probability of a tournament coming soon that will revolve around Mimes. In anticipation of this, a minor update will come to adjust Mimes a bit.

- No more shields, but C-EV raised back to 30. This reverts changes all the way back to version 139.
- Base MP is almost doubled, because they now consume MP and desperately need more.
- Base PA and MA multipliers increased to 140, which is 11 for male and female, respectively.
- Also, Raiton will no longer hit the caster. This fixes the part where you are forced to absorb it to use it effectively, which makes no sense, especially for the Ninja class.

probably on the arena discord


That's correct. When Discord was created, the majority of players who were active at the time just started using this new medium instead, causing a sink in activity on this subforum. And it hasn't recovered since. Some even said they forgot it exists.

As for this tournament, here are the links I could find.

Round 3:

Round 4 (final):

Round 1 is lost forever because it was done exclusively on Twitch, unless saw2th also recorded his stream.

Thanks for the hack, I have used it a lot, and recently have been doing a playthrough with it. Here are some bugs I've found.

- Fort Zeakden: One of the enemy Wizards will start at the wrong coordinate if pre-battle events are skipped.

- Riovanes Castle (inside): If pre-Velius event (transformation, allies coming to help..) is skipped, some of your allies won't show up but the game still thinks they are there, causing the game to infinite loop turns when it attempts to give them their turn. Here is a video of the bug.

- Riovanes Castle (rooftop post-battle cutscene): Pressing Start attempts to skip, but doesn't progress and the game must be reset.

Fort Zeakden bug happens on multiple emulators. For the rest, I have used ePSXe 2.02. A few other hacks were used, but nothing that should cause any conflict with this one. Might go through chapter 4 some other time.

FFT Arena / Re: FFT Arena Balance Discussion Thread
February 14, 2018, 04:20:51 am
As you may know by now, we have been discussing mostly over Discord about balance. I wanted to (re)ignite some discussion here as well, because I realize instant messaging is not something everyone prefers to and because of this, the forums shouldn't be left out of it like they have been for the past year or so. I feel that the input here is just as valuable as Discord's.

Now, where to start... I think I will just go with what's coming in mind for now. Will do a more organized post later because there's so much info scattered in the chat, I'm not searching for this right now.

The latest talk we've had is to just do away with Mimes completely.

There seems to be agreement about this so far. Being something recent, it's not concrete and still up for discussion. Here are the arguments I can think of in favor of their removal. Let me know if I missed anything.


- Mimes make everything that's unbalanced even more unbalanced. Slight unbalance is only a minor problem. To some, it's even part of the fun to dig for these minor imbalances and take a slight advantage over the competition, and there's nothing wrong with that. But where it gets wrong is when a Mime can just be inserted and amplify these imbalances, resulting in a large increase in wins.

- They are buggy. These bugs are due to the changes they received in 139c, an attempt to give them some variety, and not just a cheap way to insert a party member. Though it does make the player have to put more effort into creating a Mime, it's really not that much more effort. They are ultimately the same, but even stronger than before, but more importantly, they may not behave as expected due to these bugs. When you have to think of how to set them up to get around bugs (that we don't know how to fix by the way, otherwise I wouldn't be mentioning it), something's not right...

- They bypass the ability/weapon limit rule. It's something more obvious, but also important and I don't know why we consider it tolerable. An ability that should only be used 2 times can be used up to 6 times! That's just wrong, no matter how you look at it. Weapon mimicry can be just as bad if set up properly.


Female Mystic Knight gets replaced with Assassin.

To anyone familiar with the Mystic Knight class, it's known that female Mystic Knights aren't exactly good at using their own skillset due to it being based on PA. Better just use a male to churn out big damage with the elemental attacks. As for the rest of the skillset, even if it was based on MA or something else, it would hardly matter. While this could be remedied by, for example, basing the power of Spellblade on both PA and MA, we think it's better to just turn them into something different. This hasn't been talked about in a while, but here is a picture that summarizes everything. Credit to A.J. (Simmon) for the idea, and many others for helping balancing it.


(Getting sleepy, took longer than I thought to type up the Mime arguments. Will add more tomorrow if I have time.)

I want to let forum visitors know that our Discord channel is quite active. As a side result, the forum activity has gradually faded away, leaving Arena to appear as near-dead to those who visit the forums and/or aren't aware of the Discord channel. So if you have interest in Arena, it's definitely still alive. You will find that most of the activity is now there.

This is actually major for me. Regards ^^

I am correct in assuming this also works with 3-direction attacks?

Losers Bracket Round 2

Match 9

Match 10

Note: I've rerolled TERMINATE to Tutorial 2 for Match 12 since it is mislabeled as large in the map list.
I technically should have done the same for Match 9, but I don't think it would have changed the outcome of the match and it made things actually more interesting, so I'll leave it as is.
