Topic: Sylph Heals A Hiding Edward

[Deathlike2]

This affects FF4A, but probably also FF4 (although it would not normally be possible).

It's a very simple test. Sylph as we know heals everyone based on the damage dealt and the # of targets on the field.

Normally, healing in general excludes those that are hidden (Edward) and those that are jumping (Kain), not just the dead.

Apparently Edward is able to be healed while hidden...

Some pics:


See Edward was healed?!?!


 

Killed the stupid "Share this Image on Twitter!!!!111" garbage ImageShack now loves to attach to your images now. Thankfully, they're currently doing it by just adding another image tag to the bbcode; they're not actually appending that crap to your images (yet, I'm sure that's next). -DKK

I wonder if this is still in FF4:TAY.

Hmm, that is interesting! Is it a coding error or is that intended behavior, as in a work-around the "hidden" status? And what happens when it's Edward's turn? Will he automatically return now that he is above critical HP?

[Deathlike2]

Hide is pretty similar to Jump, where targeting with physical attacks will be automatically redirected and magic attacks are supposed to automatically fail (single targeted magic) or subtract 1 from the target count (for multitargeted spells). Targeting him with healing will miss, so Sylph shouldn't really be the exception.

Edward doesn't return until you tell him to. He won't auto-hide when he is the only guy left, despite being critical.

Please read what I wrote about the Hide command... should be easy to find in the stickied post.
