Ralz
I feel epic...

Wasn't she always? A scythe usually = physical brute. At least in my book.

It's just a tentative idea on my part, but I'm thinking of making Elyon unavailable for this "afterstory" of sorts. To explain would get into spoilers, something I'm not willing to reveal yet, because I want to fully know what I want before going through with it.

Perhaps you can help with synthesis materials? I get the simple stuff, like Fire Gem and stuff down, but monster drops, like Wolf Fang (which also go into synthesis recipes) are a bit more complicated. I have some ideas, but you can assist with this if you like.

Huh, I was looking at the convo, and I have two questions:

#1: How did Krysta become the physical powerhouse? <_>

#2: How does Elyon become unavailable?

Also, I'm more than willing to help!

I'll PM ya later.

Wassuuuuuup?

Would you mind PM-ing me any changes to the story, so I can butcher various parts for other arcs or something?

I can also PM you my current Manga story concepts if you want...

Hey Ralz How Have You Been Lately? I Feel Like We Rarely Talk Nowadays, What's Up?

Well, it could work, but isnt that more of sequel-material?

I see, that makes sense, and i dont mind this at all.

Elyon can also multi-heal right? Thinking on this, alot of characters can, but the only ones who actually are good at it, (considering the Demos) are Elyon and Meigumi. Still, it shouldnt be too restrictive. Characters having latent elemental weaknesses? That works as well, though... Its almost pointless if you ask me.

Though, it is not entirely sure whenever i can go with this feature, there is quite a good chance though, and does give some variety in battles. Yes, EXP is given to non-active party members as well, though they still recieves full amount like all characters, though, changing that shouldnt be too much of a problem.

I was thinking that most bosses and special enemies should actually be having quite a rediculous amount of SPD, kind of enforcing the usage of Haste if you want your slower characters to be able to keep up between the faster enemies, though while it sounds like it would become obselete, dont worry, only time it actually becomes that is when all characters stats hits perfect and on max. So this ability should be useful throughout the game, including even on Secret Bosses as well.

I see, well... I kind of knew this then, but i suppose it shouldnt be to much of a problem then. But i do suggest that some Grimoires teaches a few of characters special abilities among themselves, because... It would be kind of broken, if someone went through power-leveling and learned completely way to powerful skills by that time. Of course, this doesnt apply to all skills. Characters are good at their own stuff, however... other Characters can also be proficent in it, just "not" as good as it than the other person. But we'll be having a max of 4 in a party, so there should be enough alteration. I am thinking on giving the ability to switch party members inside of battle as well, but im so rusty with it, but i'll work on it.

Changing Haste to boost Evasion is not possible, its only possible to boost it through Equipment. We still need Haste for the reason it boosts speed, however... it doesnt affect how often your turns will come in, it affects how fast your character will be at performing their moves before their enemies (and allies too!)... And if one want to grind that much, that is going to take alot of time and still... SPD is overally also a trait of power to some of Ralz's skills in the game, where they are boosted depending on each SPD.

Well, thats possible... Though is it necessary? Maybe, maybe not, but could work, though... Its a problem with characters that runs the same first letter as another character. Laevateinn and Ladon has both "L" as their starting letter. Though, i suppose thats irrevelant with what you had in mind. And yes, everyone have quite different attributes and abilities to them, but... We shouldnt make everyone focused on one role, We for instance have Elyon, who can use Cure and Healing Spells, however... Meigumi has them too, but is generally BETTER at Healing than Elyon. Alther is a powerhouse, that uses Debuffers. I could say that Krysta is good at both STR and SPD. but generally lacks battle tempo like Elyon.

I see, thats good to hear.

Ya, i figured as much myself, we can stack each status, as long as they boost a different quanity of percentage, But we shouldnt hinder it too much to practically making a certain trait to the game completely obselete.

Well, Its simple to make Grimoires to Specific characters, so you dont have to worry about it... Just add some simple text that; "Teaches xxx to Alther" on it or whatever, then click, there ya go! And creating Grimoires through synthesis is very well possible as well. And i agree, Day/Night Systems are nice, but too complicated, we can always create our own Day/Night Scenes by using events, so its not much or a problem, but those that changes with time is too complicated.

And yes, i did try something like this, but its just not working out for me, But i agree, The Status Boosts through runes is quite powerful, as they can stack into each other, as long they are giving off a different Adition to the Stat. Like; +20% STR and +30% STR to each other. Alittle nerf shouldnt hurt.

Eh, small change. I never really customized my profile much, anyway. The loss of Gil might be something, though.

Then a possible solution would be to make the basic grimoire, such as Cure Grimoire (which teaches Stun, obviously) and then taking that, and applying something which adds a character's name to it. Like Cure Grimoire (Alther). As for what material you use, probably something specific to the character. Or is there some other way to make grimoires specific?

A day/night system would be interesting, but I don't think we need it. Unless you think we do.

"Probably?" Did you even try? I mostly thought of this because I suddenly realized the status buffs and debuffs are kinda really powerful. A flat 50% addition or subtraction to one's damage is quite decisive in most battles. I'm thinking of halving it to 25%.

Not that i know off, But appearantly, from the views of it, you cannot configure your profile with textures and such anylonger... Unless im looking at the wrong places. As for what you said...

Grimoires can be made, however, each character must have their "specific" grimoire in that case. We cannot have a grimoire for instance with a Skill that could be taught to any character in your party. As for the Event System, while there is scripts that allows for day and night time, problem is that these are very complicated scripts to handle, which i cannot use, and definitely not right now because im all rusty with the program now, As for those; "Special Effects" you mentioned, probably is not possible.

Hell, i can tell... This forum got a massive change... I can barely find around anylonger...

I cant say that, Because we first off, dont have any complete item list, And no, nothing specially advanced, You can put Poison or other stuff on a weapon and everything, I'll do what i can.

5x Potions in one go? No problemo.

Package of... Life?
"Gives a bunch of non-colesterol, and probably disgusting drinks that heals."
x? ???
x? ???
x? ???

I know what you said, But i cannot give one recipe, and then get a dozen invisible ones, that is not possible, Each needs to be visible.

Doing that way, we're getting way less experiance on searching recipes, But hey... Each equipment in the game doesnt have 30+ upgrades, more like between; 3-6 upgrades, including the basic ones, because all have that one.

Sorry Ralz, but thats not possible, Recieving a single recipe doesnt give you the ability to change all kinds of weapons with it, It just doesnt work that way with the Script, you need 1 recipe for each and all weapons you want to make.

But we either have to go with this, Or scrap the whole Synthesis process.
