Did anyone ever guess Meliadoul. I mean the outfit works.

The final boss of FFTA.

It'd be pretty tough to justify featuring Queen Remedi in here, though, considering how crucial she was to the pocket universe of pseudo-Ivalice. Her presence in this part of time of real Ivalice would functionally mean that FFTA's pseudo-Ivalice would immediately collapse.
Not to mention that the whole point of FFTA's storyline was to stop Mewt and all the rest from just using the Grimoire to escape reality instead of actually facing their problems and growing from it. We know from FFTA2 that Mewt didn't end up backsliding; he's a functional adult with a job by then. Anyone who played FFTA saw what living in pseudo-Ivalice did to Mewt in the first place - he went from an early teenager or preteen to someone with the emotional maturity of a five-year-old until Marche forced him out. I don't doubt that they still used the book after that point, and Mewt even heavily implies that at least he'd done so at the end of FFTA2, but it wouldn't have been for the purpose of escaping reality. They would have traveled to the real Ivalice of their time, as Luso did, instead of recreating a pocket universe based on it. And without that, Remedi wouldn't have reappeared.

Out of any character from FFTA, or, hell, any game ever really, that might have appeared in Jot5, Remedi is dead last. Even a living, non-alternate Aerith would make more sense than Remedi; it'd just require time travel and a memory wipe. Having Remedi appear would literally require tearing apart the world of FFTA.

Since its obvi not her I won't get into a philosophical discussion about a fantasy video game except to say that If the author wanted this to "happen" they could. #magic

Remedi/Lil-Grim

Final Fantasy Dimensional Rift - As all the boys are basically jumping from their realities into this one you could look at that as a dimensional Rift. In general the main bosses like Ganon and Sephi are using some materia or other means to manipulate it but all this crossing back an forth has torn a hole between the dimensions.

The Mark - Take out the one holding open the rift - Golbez

Golbez is being guarded by Dark Cecile and the 4 Elementals from FF4

Prize is a Pink Tail that can be used with some other item to synthesize the Adamant Armor

The use of this device could allow the player to gather all the tails and get the Onion Items as well. Each Rift is being held open by a different classic Final Fantasy Big Bad, Zemus/Zeromus from FF4, Chaos from FF1, Exdeath/Neo Exdeath FF5, Genesis Rhapsodos from FF7 Crisis, and the Braska Final Aeon from FF10.

Any Updates? I know that I am not the only one that checks back regularly to see if any news is up about the progress of the project, and I know that as soon as re-release does drop that the forums will light up again with comments.

Right now I think that most people are just a little disconnected from the project because of the perceived rate of progress being very low and whether that is in fact the case or not. We see the forum start date of 3 years ago come and go and no news in months. I hope that the project is still on track.

We loved Chapter 1 and look forward to all the changes to it in the re-release, as well as the prospect of what Chapter 2 and beyond will hold. Any update that you guys have would be welcomed.

So your using Assassinate with a bow equipped. Mechanics seem fine to me. not sure what you're inferring is "Broken".

on my latest replay I'm getting a thieving Rogue before I make the push to Romar, and an Animist to capture dragons and black & red Chocobo's along the way. Hoping to use the diversity of troops to allow my mains to get free JP while the other guys handle the battles.

has anyone unlocked Mime? I've seen it on the weapons and/or armor as an option but haven't been able to get it unlocked. lvl 8/8 squire chemist doesn't do it.

Bard Unlocked, I'll add this to the Job Tree

Never Reveal it even in the ending sequence, just leave it hanging.

Still a little tough to follow because of all of the crisscrossing but its a lot cleaner. If I can unlock Redguard, Bard, and Mime I'll put them in too.

Ezio - Desmond Miles or Lara Croft Either would be awesome

Looks like we might be guessing for a few years if this doesn't get revealed till CH. 3+

HAHAHA!!!

I kinda saw that coming for a bit, and its still definitely Raiden he's the best.

@Hyraldelita totally don't want Elric to affirm any of these answers, we all want to play it out and see who got it when the re-release comes out, but that said I am bummed that the hit got nerfed before I could get that one...

I've had 2 names come to me in the last few days while playing through. This first one fits but I'm 99% sure that its not him and that is Urahara Kisuke. He teeters between the scientific and the fantastic, his powers would make for awesome FFT adaptations, he would be a behind the scenes type of puppeteer, and is an advocate for the good guys, but since its supposed to be a video game character first and Urahara is an Anime character first.

Second idea has some legs... I think, or at least it would be cool and that's Athena. I figure that all of the characters so far are from either a classic RPG or a third person action RPG. in the same vein of DMC is GOW and the main benefactor of Kratos is Athena. She's a god so in some way, shape or form would have access to arcane knowledge. She could fit and might hearken the emergence of another great player in the from of Kratos.

I have a few other ides but I'm not going to drop a billion guesses in one post

-Crush

P.S. if that person is not revealed in Ch. 2 you're officially trolling all of us

Eva - Dante's Mom

Really rough Job Tree. I'll clean it up and add the 2 missing jobs as we get info on them

-Crush

Counter Deathblow I see, but the Deathblow attack in the action skills list I do not see. Is this an unlockable like Ikanigi Shock or did that guy mod the mod?

While we do not expect to get a positive answer from the devs in advance of the reveal in the game we can all speculate and talk about who would be cool to see, or who makes some sort of sense in this role. We know its definitely Raiden anyway because Elric has such deep affection for that guy, but lets all have a little fun guessing and when we do find out in the game the one that got it right (if anyone does) will have bragging rights.

My first guess was the original Boss for MGS3 - it was confirmed as wrong so guess #2 is Genesis from Crisis Core (He would have access to Materia and would have a desire to lead the troops against Sephi)

-Crush

Edit: Meant to say an affirmative answer, using the word positive up there makes it sound like I'm complaining.

Don't double post to make a correction. -Toshiko

And the cloaked stranger is.... The original Big Boss (AKA Snake's mentor from MGS3). Prolly not but since we're all just guessing that would be a cool one, and we have not seen other characters from that world yet soooooo....

Had a good one this weekend that had a water skeleton heal a mindflayer with aqua soul and end up frogging him I let my generic and my chocobo on top of the skeleton to just kill him after each revive and I just trolled move jp up with my 3 main characters (all of whom had regenerateor on so the frog attack actually healed them) the gen and the choco were way behind in level anyway so I was able to let them get bulked up on exp without pumping up my main level.
