shadow can equip ninja stars? what the hell? i equipped one with the ninja garb and used the fight command.  he threw 4 times for very little damage, but the star was not lost after battle, obv because i didn't choose "throw".

also, the dog-like monsters (baskervor?) near thamasa drop x-potions 100% of the time. bug or on purpose?

ok, good, thanks. i didn't know if maybe that was some kind of strange problem with my rom, or what. 

just grabbed the mystic sword, which has now made rod a beast.  he's doing twice as much damage(roughly 1300 vs. 550-600 for others) as everyone else, which is really boosted, due to the offering-characteristic of the ninja gear. anyway, just getting to the end of the cave right now. 

 
and, with edgar's new sword, i totally pwned the 5-monster, 3-mage, group.  got 10ap and 3 x-elixirs.  now i'm really powered up. i think i'm gonna wait to go into vector and teach terra some spells.

one thing you may want to fix... i'm pulling 6 megalixirs per battle between locke stealing and monster drops.

ok, so i decided to start this up again.  i'm just heading into the cave at the sealed gate using the 1.3b  patch from last(?) week.

btw, why can imps use the "shock" attack? specifically, rod and james. after they get hit by imp song, only the blitz option greys out.


also, it's been awhile since i've played, but i've noticed that i have one "unidentified" relic(that teaches "attack") and i've met 2 different monsters called "unknown". are multiple monsters just called that?

definitely, they create a HUGE sense of urgency.  for me, with my game being played at 225fps, it was automatic death for 1 or 2 of my group every time i saw them. and even after that, if i didn't act quickly, i was fucked.

oh, i know, i just couldn't resist.

most of those questions are legitimately answered in there already.

fav. was definitely the sorcerors. the cpu definitely surprised me the most. it took some decent strategy this time, as opposed to just knowing to leave one orb alone in the original.

yeah, the scarmiglione replacement without the right name and the same script is were I gave up. The whole thing is just too inconsistent.

if the characters were in their gba/snes forms, i'd already have ordered that set. not in love with the ds versions.

yeah, you know, the only reason i don't agree about the blood spear being nerfed is that it isn't around for an incredibly long time. 

what, sylvan cave, land of summoned monsters, sealed cave, tower of bab-il, and that's it?

been a few months since i played, but i'm pretty sure i used a different spear once i got past the giant. :)

I'm usually disappointed early game, since more often than not, the good stuff is done for late game.. usually via equipment and/or monsters. The equipment tends to be generic in the WOB in most FF3 hacks.

true, this one just seems really bland.

yeah, should've been clearer. not enough was changed to keep me interested. i got bored with it. :)  some of the changes are interesting, but they seem kinda poorly planned at times.
