[PSP] Final Fantasy Tactics - The War of the Lions

Although it isn't game breaking for me, I freakin HATE the slowdown and the horrid sound effects. Stasis Sword, and Dark Blade (or whatever it was originally called) sounded horrendous in the first battle. The stabbing sound effect for Dark Blade isn't even on sync with the attack! On a better note, Accumilate (now known as Focus) for Squire is a great way to net some extra experience when you have no better way to end a turn for a character that has nothing else to do. It can also make Monks do WTF damage VERY fast early in the game. Good stuff!

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Still, feels pretty good to figure out a tactic that works. xD I don't completely understand the job system yet and all the micromanaging makes me dizzy, but I'm really curious as to where the story is going and I like the script.

Hopefully, I get the hang of the fights and system soon enough.

What is it about the job system you don't understand? I'm sure many people here (including myself) can help you out.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Nononono Ninjas aren't great. Their 2 hand ability is what's great. Now a Monk with 2 Hands equipped = broken!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

A ninja with monk 'barehand' technique is arguably better because of his better speed rating. At a certain point, he who strikes first, strikes last!

Well for Ramza, Monk with 2 hand + mettle as his secondary is WAY too good! Scream (don't know if they changed the name yet) is arguably the best skill in the game.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I just read on the added characters, and Luso seems great too. He's just like Ramza, and he has Scream (which is now known as Shout apparantly). Can't wait to get Beowulf and Orlandu in on this. Team broken ++!

I was speaking idiomatically.

I think he's a combination of Mustadio's class and Thief. I never really made much use of Engineer, but I know it can be quite deadly when used correctly. Right now my battles are as brain dead as it gets. Kill Wiegraf? Ramza goes first turn, walks up to him and kills him one hit.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

The first battle can be a bit tough against him if you're not prepared.

Spoiler:

Wiegraf/Vellius on the other hand... well... Let's just hope you have Ramza equipped with Mettle secondary.

FELIPE NO

Well I said Monk with dual wield. Also, is this the first time you fight him or the second?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

^^ That's exactly what I was talking about earlier. xD

For comparison purposes, I have Ramza as a Monk with dual wield, and a separate Generic Ninja with bare handed. So far Ramza deals out an average of 120 per hit. The Ninja deals out about 60 per hit. They only have a 4 level difference also. I'll keep going with this to see how things turn out.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Do what I do. Equip Mettle or Fundamentals as secondary, unlock and equip JP up, and get into a random encounter with a yellow chocobo. Kill every other enemy and trap the chocobo. Try to take the chocobo down to danger health without killing it over and over again so it can heal you and your teammates surrounding it. while this is going on, just use Tailwind (under mettle) or Focus (under Mettle and Fundamentals) over and over again for quick JP.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
