Final Fantasy Hacktics

Well... It looks like Alicia will get an edit once again. Allthough she probably looks nothing like a knight now, I need a Holy Knight that joins to fill my quota of sword users... so she is the best candidate.

(giving the elemental weapon attacks to those 4 characters i just listed pretty much makes her job seem lame as is so i guess shes the holy knight.)

And i think ill be renaming 'holy knights' to Paladin except wiegraf will stay "White Knight"

Why is Paladin such an awesome job but very feminine too.

Heh, Well..... *tries to think of a masculine paladin* ... nope *shrugs*

i donno... lol but i want to do away with knight this, knight that... every job ends in "knight" thats too much.

I renamed elmdor's job to "Daimyo" and delita's 3rd job to "Lord"
Zalbag retains the name Arch Knight

Allthough... i COULD make Alicia keep the "Mystic Knight" name and make her have Destroy Sword, and then make Zalbag the Paladin....

I like the changes above and Zalbag could break the curve for Paladins cause he is one of the best characters in the story even if he was a fool for most of the story.  He does repent though.

well he isnt responsible for the death of... well the person at ft zeakden. so that makes him not as much of an ass.

getting him at that time would keep you from having such a strong character (i mean holy sword skills... come on!) plus, with razele's alteration that allows swordskills to work with Ninja blades and Katanas in addition to swords and knight swords, hes gonna be pretty sweet.

Yea that possibility has opened up a lot of doors for us.

the only thing is... Alicia shows up as a guest a few more times than zalbag who will willingly use his holy sword skills anyway...

But destroy sword skills, i never saw his ai use them before... perhaps i need to change the ai settings for that? (she will have "Shock!" in addition to those 4 skills as i wanted to give her at least one physically damaging skill, im considering changing it to do magic damage instead of being based off how much damage is taken... but i havent finalized all that yet.

It makes sense that a sword skill set would have at least one damaging technique in it.

EDIT: I have finished one frame of the sprite that I am proud of I and fiqured I could get some creative input.

nice butt shot there... it looks good, but keep in mind that that black color used for the edges and shadows should always be darker than everything else (that doesnt mean make it darker, it should never be darker than red 5, green 5, blue 5. the darkest blue seems pretty close might want to lighten all the blue slightly just to separate the shadow color a bit more.

Good point, and yea haha this is the easiest shot and the only one I'm confident as far as slight edits go. It's bases off balthier with the legs based on good 'ol Gaffy.

you are already using pre existing arms right? if not its gonna be alot harder. be sure to make the body fit with how the arms attach, that way you dont have to work too much on the arms.

Yea I'm using pre existing arms.  I chose Balthier cause of the jacket and the hair but I don't like the boots so I'm editing in new ones and changing the bottom of the jacket to make it slightly longer.

well it looks promising even tho its just a back shot. thats good.. maybe i wont have to use u just for an event dead body lol

Yay I shall finish the rest of what I'm working on tomorrow then.

k well working out bugs is getting annoying. I know Ignis skills are quite good, but she doesnt seem too anxious to rush into anything. perhaps its because i have 10 enemies on the map she's letting them do the work first. afterall the ninjas and archers pretty much move right away.

If she is a stronger unit maybe you will want fewer supporters to give her a reason to start busting some ass.

Also are these spellblades going to join the party or are they pure enemy material?

you mean the 4 elemental characters or characters like Ignis?

either way they all join up at different points, Lavian first

That's what I meant the Ignis typed characters.

EDIT: Just for your review Zozma the edits are done and Cid got the portrait right.  If you like it it's yours to use, if ya need BG info just PM me.

Special note I want to have the gray streaks in the jacket.

this isn't really an accurate turn of events in my patch. but since its not delita's sister there i removed the cuddling the lifeless body thing.

You might want to think about reincorporating that if you do a PSP version to give a little more depth to the Algus at Limberry battle.
