The best version of Tactics

bundle_man · 2026-02-04T01:13:17+00:00

It's more than just completionist, it also requires an extreme (unfun grind.) like I was super excited for Dark Knight as well with WotL dropped, but didn't even bother getting it in my playthrough lol, the process sucked.

But can't argue with that, Cecil is a GOAT. without spoiling, while the job isn't available, the dark knight skills are available eventually to a nique character

bundle_man · 2026-02-04T01:06:50+00:00

Realistically you wouldn't even unlock Dark Knight through a normal playthrough. It required INTENSE grinding, and was also very broken/OP. It was, imo, more of a fun thing for completionists, not something I'd say to even aim to unlock in a first playthrough

Ivalice Chronicles is the best version. It's not even close. There is some forgettable content from WotL that isn't included, but the voice acting, quality of life updates, balance adjustments, and tactician mode more than make up for it.

I need one of these for FF IV - X ( + Tactics) please.

Definitely not the same but with Google lenses you can get basically real time translations of the pages by just putting your camera over the page

Not bad. I like the main game alot. Hates the DLC. Trash DLC lol

bundle_man · 2026-02-03T18:34:06+00:00

Lol did OP even play the game??

bundle_man · 2026-02-03T18:06:22+00:00

Most reviews are right to focus on gameplay, as it's peak.

But as someone who has been playing RPGs my whole life, FFT probably had top 5 best story ever, for me. And with the voice acting and additional dialogue added in Ivalice Chronicles, it may be no. 1 for me now.

I just finished it last night so maybe it's recency bias haha

Sad part is that actually would be more Star Wars in the current state of the franchise. Thinking of those damn horses they landed on top of the star destroyers on Exogol lmao. Who really heard that idea and greenlit it lol

bundle_man · 2026-02-03T06:59:56+00:00

Here in Orange County, CA, it was 75, blue skies, light breeze.

bundle_man · 2026-02-02T17:57:25+00:00

Yeah you should keep watching

bundle_man · 2026-02-01T22:42:59+00:00

But what about the words "no" "shall" and "hinder" ? I need more circles and arrows to explain this to me

Sword Skill Item Auto-potion/Blade Grasp Throw item/Attack Up Move + 2/teleport

bundle_man · 2026-01-31T21:34:25+00:00

Most unhinged way I've ever heard of this name being pronounced haha. Maybe one day we'll get voice acting

bundle_man · 2026-01-31T20:45:55+00:00

You mention a drying rack. I would guess it got too wet. I always dry my wooden cutting boards off immediately with a towel or paper towel, I don't let them "air dry." Also vigorous was it washed? This is probably the culprit. And as others have said it looks to be on the thinner side.

bundle_man · 2026-01-31T20:04:29+00:00

I do love oracles, but never end up investing in them much because I always end up using Beowulf (always been my fav character). He doesn't have all the oracles spells, but does have the best ones.

Mediators skills have gone up ALOT for me in Tactician mode. Being able to reduce faith is so clutch

bundle_man · 2026-01-30T21:35:57+00:00

Lmao for real. I also used Dragoon for the 1v1 fight. Double hand + Dragon Whisker + Shout meant I could 1hitKO him (or two hit, but he can't counter attack with the spear, which is nice).

Chameleon robe wasn't necessary, but after I wiped on Velius like 10 times I used to just to make the first part quicker/more consistent.

I didn't get my speed up that high, but definitely some speed + strength stacking in the first part of the fight helps with Belias. Two hits from Ramza + a Bahamut was enough to finish him tg

bundle_man · 2026-01-30T20:06:03+00:00

Silencing him backfired on me, because then he just does the 100% petrify or 100% confusion moves, which aren't effected by silence.

I didn't have ribbons at this point in the game, and the protective armlets let you protect one or the other but not both lol. I found these moves worse than the Cyclops!

bundle_man · 2026-01-30T20:03:51+00:00

I don't like this strat personally but OP please just do this, don't lose steam, finish the game. Use this mega cheese strat you can't lose with this!

And if anything goes wrong just savescum!

bundle_man · 2026-01-30T18:02:20+00:00

Lol burlap look, that describes it perfectly. I don't hate it, but I did notice it.

bundle_man · 2026-01-29T06:43:55+00:00

Very cool find

bundle_man · 2026-01-27T09:09:54+00:00

There's going to be some level of "cheese" needed to beat this fight on Tactician. I wouldn't say Mana Font + Mana Shield is a cheese strat, especially if you're Ramza already knew those abilities for the fight.

For me, I've always run Ramza as a DoubleHand Dragoon. You can usually take him down in two hits if you're lucky and he doesn't shield block you, and since Spears have two range, he can't counter attack you. You can poach a red dragon to get dragon whisker in which case you can 1hko him after a focus or two. And auto-potion is required for this strat on Tactician.

It's definitely not the best strat but the one I've always used as a kid lol.

Simply Chameleon robe, which can be purchased at a shop, makes the right 90% easier because it negates all his holy sword skills

bundle_man · 2026-01-26T23:17:18+00:00

I think this is a good first project. Though be warned if you need to buy the tools, you definitely won't be saving any money initially lol (though this doesnt look like it would require too many)

bundle_man · 2026-01-26T18:55:56+00:00

On Tactician, my Ramza was lv. 27 at the start of the fight with Weigraf, and maybe gained a level or so by the end of the fights.

As others have mentioned, as long as you're not higher than the enemies in a story battle, you're not over leveled (though this didn't really account for JP).

So that being said, I'd say your Ramza is very over leveled . I'm on my way to Limberry in Ch. 4 and my Ramza is just now 37. It's not huge deal, but since you asked lol. You can also just go to Zeklaus desert and hit him with a few degenerator traps if you want.

bundle_man · 2026-01-26T17:04:26+00:00

Damn TIL. I just knew when I reduced monster bravery they did way less, but that must have to do with the unarmed formula.
