In order to increse this section popularity a little, im starting a little contest here !

The challenge is to make a COP styled Mid-boss battle !

The prize is a secret, but you'll know what if you win!

How to make an entry is simple. Enter your ideas, your desired equipement, and its unique skillset.

Will he be fast ? Will he be slow ? A tank-styled golem with high range damage thecniques or just a theif with a magic bow ? Will he have 100% evade but weak to fire, absorb ice and lightning and floating ? What will be it's class ? Special or normal, new palettes or what ? What will be it's stats ? Will he have minions, what are their stats ? Will they always revive until he's dead, or will they be 10 disposable clones that are fast ? Or will it be a bodyguard ? What are their name ? What is their initial postion ?



The only thing set is that he is party level + 5 , and the map used will be this one : http://ffhacktics.com/maps.php?id=58

Im counting on you ! Search trought this section, build up your team, and post it here ! Good luck, have fun ! This ends 7th August.

You may say you din't see a lot from COP, and that you would need more ideas, but that's what im asking - be creative.

Ps : Recycled Ideas will be used for the boss pacth, if ever made

The boss should be a mage.
It should start in the upper part of the map, with a lot of petrified enemies spread around the map.
He should be truly fast, and he should be able to de-petrify the enemies.
His job should be the "awaker of the ...."(put the place where the battle takes place, for example the awaker of the flying castle) and the petrified enemy should be called the "defender of..."

Now, about stats - skillset
The boss should be a support character, his main role is to awake the warriors and later to support them (cure, protect, shell, and shit like that)
He must be very fast in order to be able to awake all the warriors in a good time (maybe initial haste?)
Give him move mp up to recover his mp, and magic defense up as innate (so to damage him truly well you need to overcome the melee warriors)
The petrified enemies should be a melee class (something like golem) but with higher hp - speed - movement but no skillset (so they can only attack) and 33% evade

The conditions for winning should be killing every enemy on the field
It's a middle boss, so he shouldn't be hard, in fact with magic it's easy to defeat only-melee fighters that starts petrified...but it would be something nice and new imho
Ofc if you like this idea I want the mage to be called "Dome" (and to die in that battle...^_^)
Let me know what you think ^_^

Basically spamming % based attacks so you can't really tank them. Giga Flare does low damage (might want to make it lower), and is a more reliable attack than Demi / Demi2 to combat sandbagging. Zombie is also there to combat sandbagging. Anyway its definitely possible if you have reliable healing and revival, and fast units.

As the heroes arrive they are quickly waylaid by the keeper of the Jail Records, Tearose, a Librarian with a lot of experience to match her age. She appears at the foot of the stairs and a battle ensues, with the heroes quickly dispatching her. Her body vanishes and she reappears at the top of the Library. She proclaims that she is fighting just a simple handful of rogues, and splits herself into four, exact copies so you can't tell which from which and you have to kill the right one.

Every incorrent one you destroy, will use a move called "Illusion Restore" which will bring her back to full HP.

Also it is best to give them AI that will all stick together to confuse the player. Killing the right one will drop her and end the battle immediately.

sadness can be turned to delight.
A nation destroyed cannot be restored,
the dead brought back to life."

I'll let you adjust the growths/multipliers to fit the low damage style of COP, but if it wasn't a low damage patch, something like:

HPC / HPM: 8/120
MPC / MPM: 3/255
SPC / SPM: 85/110
PAC / PAM: 75/75
MAC / MAM: 42/120

I'm not so familiar with your growth multiplier system either so I'll go slightly vague.

HPC / HPM: High
MPC / MPM: High
SPC / SPM: Medium
PAC / PAM: Medium High
MAC / MAM: Medium Low

Innate: Defense UP, Magic Defense UP, Short Charge


Primary: Drift
Drift Dash: Powered up dash with infinite range.

Drift Storm:Jumps off screen after charge casts Bolt 4
Dimension:Casts slow on all enemies.

Secondary: Throw
Reaction: Speed Save
Support:
Movement: Teleport 2

I never liked thinking about growth and multiplier values, so ill just give ideas.

HP- about 100 HP higher then an armored unit on Allied team
MP- 999 Mp
SP- Better then Average
PA- (If books dont require PA, then make it one.)
MA- High

Equipment
R. Hand- Historic Archives (This would be great if you made a book, but if you cant... then make him wear a rod)
L. Hand- Nothing
Head/Armor/Accessory- (Depends on Level)

Innate: Concentrate, Defense UP, MagicDefend UP

Skillset: Archives

Death Sentence- Not the usual Death Sentence, but it will inflict damage + the occasional Death status.
Mimic Daravon- Sleep, but in an AOE of 2.
Cursed Words- Inflicts many different status effects, seperately. 40% each. (Darkness/Silence/Don't Act/Don't Move/Slow/Stop/Petrify)
Profanity- Inflicts damage and the occasional Berserk.

Secondary Skillset: Darkness
Reaction Ability: MP Switch
Support Ability: Non-Charge
Movement Ability: Teleport 2

A reader of books. He keeps his library in order. He will most likely spam your team with debillitation and such. He will be protected by MP switch that goes off half the time. All of his abilities derive of word of mouth. He has no "minions."
