Final Fantasy Tactics Advance: Grim Grimoire (OLD!)

[Kaijyuu]

I'll just pop in and say magic points are inherently broken without some way to regenerate them. Consumables don't really count, either.

The limited resource thing is intended to make you not just spam your most powerful attacks, but of course you're going to do that anyway, and after you're out of MP your character's a lame duck.


Keep the regen and rebalance/replace things that are made rather overpowered by it (damage to MP, for example).

[Ethereal Embrace]

How about the same MP regen, but half MP at the beginning? Then Matra Magic isn't ridiculously OP in early portions of the battle.

That's actually what (1/3 instead of 1/2) I wanted to do but I have no idea of how that would be possible.

[Ethereal Embrace]

We can always just change Matra Magic, you know.

This is true.  Make it have status effect accuracy at the very least.

i have idea, can u create as many jobs as the FFTA2 NDS? I love new jobs in this version FFTA

[UltimagaWeapon]

What about changing the damage ratio of the -RA and -GA spells?

If I remember correctly Fira deals 110% the damage of Fire and Firaga deals 125% the damage from Fire. Fire could be weakened while Fira and Firaga strenghtened (If there's 0 MP at the beginning).

Just saying, I'm still not sure myself as it seems N'mou Black Mage Geomancy, equipped with something Robe dealing over 600 damage with Firaga seems kinda broken.

[Ethereal Embrace]

I always thought it was dumb to have bosses resist every element - that solely targets mages and weakens them significantly.  It's bad enough that they have to wait before they can use stronger spells (which are already not worth the amount of Mp they take:  i.e. 4* Mp = 5/3* Damage).  It's also basically telling me that, if you are going to do a boss battle then "unless you're an idiot, don't use offensive mages."

I think it'd help if Black Mages had something like Flare like they have in FFT.

Any update on this?

[Eternal]

Not yet. Darthatron's been busy with other stuff, and there are still some things we need to decide on, like a new Law System. I do have an update with edited items and skillsets, but I'm not sure if that alone is worth a release.

[Darthatron]

Don't blame me. >_>

[Dome]

Don't blame me. >_>

Blame yourself or god

[RavenOfRazgriz]

Don't blame me. >_>

Blame Lazyternal?

Sure thing.

[Darthatron]

More like LAMEternal. amirite?

[Eternal]

I have the sudden urge to work on this again. I'll hopefully have more to show after I finish KO!

EDIT: Started working on it again. I've killed about a dozen abilities today. >_>

[Eternal]

Tons more progress made today, including the new Mediator job that replaces Gadgeteers. One more new job on its way!

[Eternal]

About ready to release a beta this weekend. Zareb's done some testing so far and results have been positive!
