in that case,the second one does look best

Very cool effects Zozma. You are starting to get me interested in this stuff.

its pretty easy, snespal lets you find the address of the color then you can easily recognize the 200 bytes that is the color palette. ive copied one palette and pasted it into another, (still doesnt change the tinted screens but still)

The first looks best for the purpose, in my opinion.  The red coloring makes me think of blood mages and the like some patches are using/plan to use.

testing out X-Zone

you cant save them! mwahahahahaa

i dont know if im going to keep it as a skill or not since their counter's dont go down... so theres no way to make them crystalize with this status but you cant revive them for the rest of the fight either

Seriously tho, two new status altering skills
X-Zone, Banish, and Transmute

Banish - i think you guys have seen this spell on other patches, i plan to use it as well. a 50/50 chance of getting crystalized instantly.

Transmute - almost the same as banish, however, its a 50/50 chance of being turned into Treasure

X-Zone - Ideally i want the crystal/treasure counter to decrease, however, at this time the status causes the CT to freeze. The unit's status cannot be viewed and the unit cannot be revived. You do not lose the unit permenantly but you cant revive them during the battle. (i might instead use "wall" in combo with "dead"  to make them unsaveable

I am also considering altering some spell names of the 4th tier

Firaja = Conflagration
Blizzaja = Absolute 0
Thundaja = Thunderstorm

Aeroja = (Already 'Tornado')
Quakeja(lol) = Earthquake

Flood = Torrent or Maelstorm

Catastrophe sounds cool, I ended up using that name for a new Black Mage magic using the Cherry Blossom animation and getting rid of Cherry Blossom.

Catastrophe doesn't sound very fiery to me. Inferno, maybe? Solar Flare? Banefire?

Instead of Thunderstorm, how about... Rolling Thunder? Just tossing out some ideas. I like Absolute 0 for Blizzaja though (and this patch, it's looking good).

hmmm CT you're right, i haven't used "inferno" anywhere :D

Melt is the alternate lvl4 fire spell but only Lavian has it (and hashmalum and generic desert sorcerers)

as for Thunderstorm vs Rolling Thunder, im not sure yet but it might work especially with the way the effect file works.

im sure ill find a place for "catastrophe" too somewhere...

thanks guys

Conflagration is better than Inferno, IMO.  It is less cliche and overused at the very least.

but i think it makes more sense tho. I'm simply trying to make separate the 4th tier since they are the ultimate of the level
