Hmm, well I didn't read every single one but what I did read were actually very impressive. Normally I cringe once or twice reading spell quotes or the like, but you did a great job IMO. I like'm, I'd throw'em in, but it's certainly not my patch!

EDIT: In Arise it should probably be 'grant' instead of 'guide', I do believe.

Thanks for pointing out those errors, guys. I'll correct them on my computer. Even if they don't end up in this patch, there may be others who can use 'em, so it's all good! =D

I may use your quotes. They are very elegant, yet articulate.

You may wish to change the quote for Firaga though, if you decide to use them. I dunno if you want a Kefka reference in your patch or not. XD

So you guys don't mind that I completely made up new quotes? I thought for sure everyone would rather just have the quotes corrected for grammar and spelling's sake.

BTW, does anyone know off-hand if I'm missing any more enemy spells? I feel like I am, but those were the only ones listed in the guide.

Fantastic! Great work, eloquently put and an overall archiac as the game makes it propr, by chance would you like to look at a few spell quotes for Mercenaries? Such talent is quite rare, you have seemed to study these more then a bit, how long did it take you to come up with all of these? Also I think you are missing a few as you said... You're missing Beowulf's Spell Swords, I think you might have missed Midgar Swarm, but aside from that everything looks wonderful!

Except... the description given to Ramza's Ultima is a bit plain, the original had a quote that was fitting to Ramza's character, "Brush off vanity and show reality!" is pretty core to Ramza's character, it's what he strives to do. That one is the only one I had a problem with.
"Moment's anger can revert to joy,
sadness can be turned to delight.
A nation destroyed cannot be restored,
the dead brought back to life."

I'd love to help with Mercenaries, as well as any other projects going on!

Wow, I made a huge goof with Snake Carrier. For some reason, I confused Snake Carrier (another move Elidibus has) and Midgar Swarm. They're both wrong translations! The proper translation is Midgardsormr. My bad! XD

Spell Swords... did he even have quotes for them? Truthfully, I don't remember if he does or not. I may have missed them in the guide earlier (or the Qu_Marsh could've forgotten to put them in. He/she/it(?) forgot to put Odin in under Summon Magic, so it's possible that it was just an error on their part.

As far as how long it took to come up with them, it really took longer to find the Spell Quotes guide than it did to make them, lol. I'd say about 2-3 hours. I love the world of Ivalice, so the root of my Final Fantasy knowledge is in Ivalician Lore (/geek).

And finally, for Ramza's Ultima. I completely see what you mean by that quote. It especially represents his frame of mind when he's able to get Ultima (Chapter IV is the earliest he could get it, IIRC, since I don't think he could get it at Riovanes Roof), so I suggest instead:

Ultima: "Light of truth, cast aside illusion's deceit! Ultima!"
Thoughts?

Well this is strange... I just looked in FFT Patcher and it shows that the quotes aren't activated, but there are quotes for them in the game...

So it's up to the community... apparently they were never activated, but they were always there, should they be activated now?

EDIT: Wow, stupid me, I just realized that you were referring to Beowulf's quotes and not quotes for War of the Lions. My bad... again.

Anyways, LD, feel free to PM me the details of what you need for Mercenaries. I'll help as much as I can. =D

Oh, no, I had meant that these are in FFT, not WoTL, but aren't activated, the person you got the original quotes from had everything right. I certainly will, or better yet do you use IRC at all?

lol, I just finished editing my post because I just realized you were referring to Beowulf. ROFL

I'm afraid I don't use IRC. I use MSN, but because my internet is so choppy, it causes MSN to sign me in and out without me knowing, so it can be quite annoying to anyone on my friend list while I'm on. =(

I'll give the Spellblade abilities a shot.

-SPELLBLADE- (to keep myself from getting confused with Mystic Arts)
Blind:     "All light shall fall to my darkness! Blind!"
Syphon: "Magick spirits, share your bounty! Syphon!"
Drain:    "Filth-ridden leeches, engorge upon sinners' blood! Drain!"
Faith:     "Divine Father, bless us upon this day of war! Faith!"
Doubt:    "Break free from the manacles of zealotry! Doubt!"
Zombie:  "Let your flesh rot and turn to dust... Zombie!"
Silence:  "Quiet death, feast upon thy foe! Silence!"
Berserk: "Put reason aside, let running blood be your pleasure! Berserk!"
Chicken: "A fate fit for a courtesan such as yourself! Chicken!"
Confuse: "The logos of a worm...Confuse!"
Dispel:     "The battlefield ought be even! Dispel!"
Disable:  "You'll not raise arms at me again! Disable!"
Sleep:     "Forget about your worries... they'll be gone soon. Sleep!"
Break:    "Cage of rocky earth, entrap! Break!"
Vengeance: "Painful fervor, heed my call! Vengeance!"

I know, they kinda suck, but I think they'll do.

Oh, one more thing I noticed. In FFXII, Zodiark was KEEPER of Precepts, not Master. Both sound fine to me, but if seems like you were trying to tie the two together through the quotes, so I thought I'd mention it.

Yes, thank you for pointing that out. It's been a while since I played XII and Revenant Wings, so I had forgotten about that. Thanks again. =D

But note that Cheetah is going to be the one with the final say, so these may not be used anyways.

Don't worry Eternal I am really liking these. This is a team project though so I must consort with my cohorts before I make a final decision.

Here I go and ask for Lasting Dawn's opinion and he goes and hijacks my thread for Mercenaries. J/K thanks for the feedback LD your opinion is valued. As is everyone else's, keep the feedback and opinions coming on these quotes.

I whole bunch of stuff is being accomplished at the same time. I'm anticipating a couple more beta patches for testing a few things, and a near final release in the not too distant future. The major slow-up at this point will definitely be the sound novels getting translated.
