Ah. XD My friend came thursday today. Sorry to knock everyone off the normal schedule. o-o So this week I'm on friday. XD

[Kilala Mikal]

It's all good. :) Did you have fun?

[Vincent]

Yeah pretty much. XD He played on the ps2 'Romancing Saga' cuz he really likes it. XD
I borrowed his laptop again to work on the game I'm making on rpg maker on it. O:
It's a hella lot more fun when you put 'classes' in a game. like 'white mage, black mage, etc'
i got this awesome idea to make 'tomes' that , where if you put a 'white tome' on a knight, he can use white magic as well as his knight skills. ;3 so combining class skills. :3

[Kilala Mikal]

That sounds really nifty, and like it'd be a lot of fun when it's all done. :)

[Vincent]

It will be 8'D So excited. I only have like 5-6 classes done so far...
Basic, White/black/time/red mage, knight, ninja, berserker, alchemist, magic knight, hunter, archer, bard/dancer, dragoon, and samurai. :3
also, mayybe a mascot, borrowed from FFX-2, but still unsure...probably not though.

I think I might have overpowered the time mage, though. there's no time gauge, you just take turns, so for 'haste', i made it give the affected ally an aditional turn one time. thenn, I gave him 2 spells at the end. Hastega (gives everyone an extra turn) and overdrive (gives time mage 5 turns in a row) and both cost heavily in mp, however, if you wear accessories that half mp cost, or even lower it to 0, ... those will be WAY overpowered. XD So I think I'll just reward those to people who beat the final, hardest secret boss,that way they have 2 spells to play around with owo

[Kilala Mikal]

My brain just went *poof/feathers/es'plode* That sounds awesome! *nod nod*

[Vincent]

Lmao. XD sorry. I got geek-y there. :B

What's the difference between Hunter and Archer? Also you should go for a rogue/assassin and paladin :P

[Vincent]

Hunter - can use special skills that do extra damage to specific species.
might also have some nature things going on, not sure
Archer - has various bow skills, hit/crit up skills, and situational skills. (deals higher damage to monsters with high def, etc)

I would do a rogue/assassin, but what would be the difference between them and a ninja? If it's different enough, I'll add them. XD

Also, paladins are awesome, but with a knight/dragoon/magic knight, all capable of wearing a 'white tome' for white magic/healing, I'm not seeing a point in that? unless I'm missing something. XD

[Vincent]

Also, i might just replace ninja with assassin... maybe.
can't really think of ninja skills. ;-;

If you have any other ideas, though, I'm open. :3

[Espy]

Ninja in Final Fantasy lore had the ability to throw things, like pop culture's ninja shurikens.

Rogue in Ragnarok Online meant you could use any first-job weapons and first-job skill, so a lot of people went with bow and swapped out quickly for dagger if the situation arose. Or you could go with Claws.

Assassins tend to be more cloaking/poison based.

[Vincent]

yeah but that's pretty much it, and in this rpg maker you cant have skills use up items. DX niether can you have certain items available to certain classes to use in battle. /ithink
so can't really think up anything. XD

first-job weapons and skill? meaning one job or the first jobs?
cuz if it's just one job, whats the difference between the first job and a rogue XD?

Yeah.. that would be interesting I guess, though dunno if I'd be able to churn out 10 types of skills or so based on cloaking or poison o.o'
/thinks on it

[Espy]

Like, Newbie --> Thief --> Assassin, and Newbie --> Monk --> Champion, Rogue would get the skills from Thief and Monk.

EDIT: I could help with that.

[Vincent]

Ohhh ... well I don't know how well that would work out... my 3 'starter' classes are archer/whitemage/black mage. XD

Really? 8'D That would be awesome haha.
don't forget I can make varying degrees of poison, too. x3 if that helps. XD
though not sure how poisoning someone 5 different ways would go over. XD

[Espy]

Hrk. That there's no fighter started bugs me XD

So like, for assassin, you could do a basic atk, a poison DOT skill, and backstab skill (x3 dmg) that takes two turns to activate, a cloaking skill that has some chance to evade incoming attacks, a Bind attack, etc.

[Vincent]

Archer is sort of a fighter? XD
hm. OH well technically theres the 'basic' class to begin with, which has skills similar to FFT's basic job. with a few new ones thrown in~

poison DOT skill meaning a special poison, or just the regular poison ailment?
and do you think 10% dmg per turn for poison is too harsh? XD

also, since I'm replacing ninja with assassin, would it be weird to have an assassin hit twice?
