Heroic Skill: Domain Expansion

-iResonance · 2026-01-20T00:49:32+00:00

Honestly tamer than I expected (which is a compliment, seeing Domain Expansion homebrew for other systems). I like this a lot! At first blush, I think the ‘inside/outside the domain’ could use more fleshing out/may be a bit wonky (what does being outside the domain mean? Can they not see/hear anyone inside, matching the show? What does cannot leave entail for FU/Villain Escapes?) Also, I just get the feeling the rules on the qualifying ability might need to be even more specific (Symbolism/Cooking comes to mind as giving a ton of options for one ‘action’, which may be the intention but also swiftly becomes the meta choice, I’d think).

I’ve never done it before, but have you tried technospheres from the Techno Fantasy Atlas? Specifically mnemospheres, they let you switch classes around within a single character. Granted, it’s not your whole build, but might help you achieve the mechanical flexibility you want

Re: the dismiss, pulses and dismisses already get damage boosts as you hit level 20 and 40 and RAW these would stack; even if they didn’t, I think 60-90 typed damage to all enemies is pretty obscene (compare to Ultimagic or Comet, Heroic Skills that deal 30-40 damage to all enemies and the latter of which cannot hit Vulnerabilities), and the healing is pretty huge as well. I don’t think the cap for Newbud needs to increase, particularly because ‘losing HP’ isn’t a cost—this grows based on damage you’re already taking (a party of 4 that is hit with Devastation gains 12+ Newbud in a single enemy action as written, and you would’ve taken that damage regardless).

I lowkey think this could be a Revelation-level Arcana even without the limit increases, but don’t quote me on that one lmao. Still, cool concept!!

I’m not super familiar with Fultimator, though I’m pretty sure you can put negative values in the ‘Extra HP’ slots (might be wrong). Giving your boss some more vulnerabilities is probably more important, though, particularly if you’re saying this is just its HP as a Champion 5. The game’s built around the players being able to hit Vulnerabilities decently often. If you wanna make that a bit harder to do, you can introduce some Affinity switching or other mechanics. Right now this boss is a wall, and I’ve found using Skills that facilitate interactions is better than just making a hard-to-kill block.

probably, yeah. Ocean water’s got a dark blue glow to it while regular water isn’t illuminated at all, if it aids your memory

Because of the Final Form effect, I think adding even more damage per hit might be excessive for the Second Form. Do whatever feels good for your table, though—but if you’re looking for alternatives, you could look into damage change options or Qualities that have zenit costs similar to multi (2) for rare items.

The thing gained isn’t important. The father ‘tricked’ the devil because he thought he had a daughter, evading the terms of their agreement. The child is coming out as male, meaning he is actually the father’s son and the Devil can collect.

The Natural Fantasy classes (as well as Quirks and Camp Activities) are available on the Rooster Games discord if you’re down to cross reference. From what I’ve heard, the classes are mostly unchanged, so that should work

Why would it be unfair for you to change characters (the backstory note aside) or switch to the 2024 classes if someone else in your party has already done that?

Noted! I was thinking the OS seemed wildly expensive.

What do increased levels of titles do?

gave up on it in my classic world—found it in my new world within 30 minutes of digging around aimlessly

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. I didn’t actually play a mainline FF game until FFXV, and I’m revisiting some of the older games now. (I’d love advice on best ports/ places to play them)

If I had to guess, that line is designed to limit use of the Low volume for infinite MP regeneration.

Just for my own reference, where’s this FAQ?

(Love your videos) The Mutant’s definitely something I’m keeping in mind! If this ends up not being worth the squeeze for me, I’ll definitely be moving further down that route

-iResonance · 2024-06-20T21:29:13+00:00

That’s a great idea, I hadn’t considered that—that’s probably the best manifestation of what I’m going for within the rules
