In Topic: Favorite WoB Teams
14 October 2016 - 04:47 PM
Edgar, Sabin, Locke, Terra is my power party for WoB.
I try to get Strago in there for FC while removing Edgar and Locke, and I always take Shadow (who wouldn't?) when I can.
Best Zozo team IMO is Edgar, Cyan, Celes, Shadow (or, if you are a terrible person and dislike Shadow for some unholy reason, Locke instead) -

BTB, on 11 October 2016 - 01:10 PM, said:
I've noticed a tendency of a lot of players in streams/LPs to overlevel certain few characters (usually characters named Celes and Sabin) by not ever swapping them out of the party, and said characters go on to dominate while the others catch up either naturally in Kefka's Tower or through the Dinosaur Forest (or not at all). In response to this, I've added another experience "hump" at level 30 like the ones that currently exist at 10 and 20. I've also pulled the "soft" cap from 40 back to level 36-37 (expected end-game levels are mid-30's).
Sorry, it's been so long since I've heard "soft cap" that I forgot what it was--that's the massive increases in XP per level, right?
Also, will this patch be compatible with 1.7.4? Or would I need a new game? -
In Topic: [2.0] Esper Equip Bonuses
09 October 2016 - 01:46 PM
BTB---at first glance, I think almost all of those perks are very balanced (although I have the same reservations about the auto-skills), and each bonus is thematically appropriate!
1 potential balance problem---Golem giving +10 Def gives power-gamers like myself the ability to hit 255 def with Edgar. I just checked, and currently I can deck Edgar out focusing solely on maximizing Def and get to 247 (Crystal Shield/Helm, Lazy Shell, 2 Safety Gloves), which means an additional 10 will max him out at 255.
Granted, you and Syn may have done some rejigging of the damage formula that I'm not aware of, but I know in vanilla, hitting this number made literally every physical attack do 1/0 damage to you, which would potentially make Edgar even more of a Golden God for large sections of the 2nd half of the game. Please correct me if I'm wrong! -

That explains why Edgar went from Great to Steamroller in a somewhat short window of time (yet again) for me. I've admittedly over-leveled him, but he seemed to get a huge damage bounce around early-mid WoR. -
In Topic: 2.0 Idea? Maybe?
23 September 2016 - 02:26 PM
On the writing/joke front, I played through the game with the Clean patch and never really found much of anything too untoward, and I honestly think the references to other games are done pretty nicely. Actually, I probably found the replacement text for the rougher language to be much funnier than BTB/Syn intended. I still lol a little anytime I read "great googly-moogly." I blame my love of B-movies for this.
The hangup on "D" definitely is not a thing with anyone I know (internet or real life), although I do kind of disagree with Syn on the topic of named dragons. Obviously the original didn't have in-game lore related to dragons, but that could be a potential change that might add to the world-building a bit in 2.0, and maybe give them a bit more character than "we need a boss here: why not stick a dragon there?". That said, I'm not sure there's anything wrong with the way they are currently either, both approaches have pros/cons.
