Older/Younger Rydia's Equipment Difference
« on: February 01, 2008, 09:40:02 PM »
Anyone willing to give a complete list of equipment that both Rydia forms can't equip?

All I'm sure about is that the staff set is unequippable by Older Rydia.

Isn't this list slightly different in FF4A?

According to Entroper's list, the Zeus/Giant's Gloves is not equippable on Rydia in FF4A altogether and Strength Armlet is equippable on both Rydia forms.

I see no reason to doubt Entroper's list, they probably did make some changes (Giant's Gloves on Rydia never made much sense to me). My list is consistent between all the SNES versions.

I dunno, Rydia's the strongest of them all.. just capped by the lame weapon/armor selection.

I think you'll like my hack, Rosa and Rydia get much better armor selection now, including the ability to equip a few shields without having to abuse the steal glitch.

The strength armlet on young Rydia makes sense, since Rydia is transformed back to young Rydia for her trial in the Lunar Ruins.

Sure, I understand consistancy. That's kind hard to see in this game at times...

Do you know what happens if the listed items are equipped on Younger Rydia... does Older Rydia stick with it or is the equipment automatically deequipped after the trial?

Never mind.. I found out.

All the game does is switch the forms, but fails to deequip Older Rydia's incompatible equipment. However, I don't see that as an ill side effect since the options for Younger Rydia still suck.

Somehow, I'm not surprised by this. You'd think that she would be unequiped, since logic says it.

Given where her line stops, this is actually very beneficial, since she'd probably get slaughtered without the good gear. Although, if you tried to swap equipment during the trial, then things can get really hairy. :tongue:
