Easy solution!  Just grind until you can survive it.  :wink:

I'm sure that's an option, but with what I did, grinding away 10 (though, it's more like 3 in my case) more levels than my current group isn't an optimal solution.

With the number of changes made, I'm happy to report that additional space was made by cleaning up useless battle code primarily from Cagnazzo/Kainazzo.

With that said, I'm disappointed to report that Cagnazzo kicked my ass enough times that it hurts...

I didn't bother putting up pictures of the Baigan battle because that would ruin too much...

Here's a news flash: Cagnazzo doesn't insta-die vs a Lit-3 hit.  :childish: :eek: :whoa: :tongue:

 :edit:

These changes go up to beating Cagnazzo... I'll have to think about what to do with the Eblan treasure monsters and the monster formations most people never fight...

sounds interesting.  i'll check it out again once you get a little farther along.  i'm in baron with yang.  no need to start over, right?

after spending way more time that was expected on ff2dl2(the title i made for your hack while i was taking notes), i spent a little while playing nethack at work today, and quite frankly i now require mooore.

speaking of an actual title, though, it's too bad you couldn't make a few more character clones and make it something clone-related, like you alluded to in the first post.  it'd be neat to fight a cecil clone with rosa there to buff him/heal both of them.

There are definately plans to make more... it's better when those characters are/will be in your party and you are more likely to see them before they leave for whatever reason (so, Cid and Tellah are pretty much next up).

The Final Party will have.. more interesting opportunities, and will carry the best equipment they could possibly get (at least in my vision), but they will be much more radical and I don't think a "get out of Game Over free card" will be issued then.

Small preview:


I should have more pics when once I decide what to do next.

 :edit:

I didn't realize how fun this turned out...

I've updated the battle scripts for both eviltwins to address their lameness problems.

Right now, I need to level up Cid little bit (I do mean a little).

I'm in the middle of redoing the Dark Elf's scripts... in addition to item drop-monster balancing. As soon as I have that settled, there should be a new beta out.

Ok, everything up to the Magnetic Cave and the Dark Elf boss battles are done.

I found it strange that noone had a comment about the Baigan and Cagnazzo boss battles went...

The new battles can be found at the most unbattled sections of the game... the area around Agart/Eblan Castle.

Yay, found some space to add that in:


Simply sadistic:


A classic (there is no change, I just love the message):

I had started over, I haven't bothered to kill Octomamm again since I'm trolling for a Cure Staff first.

ok, the whiskey is poured and the file is patched.  i think it's time to keep going...     :cycle:  :cycle:

god damn it. apparently, i closed zsnes without checking to make sure i saved state. i have to kill yang again.  i wouldn't mind if it didn't take forever...

:edit:
waaaait! i just noticed that i never bothered to closed the game out when i was done playing before. i still have yang beaten in the older version, i just didn't save and it's still running.  i can't begin to describe how happy i am right now.  heh, state saved and transferred over to the newer version.  here i come baigan!

also, i like how you changed the treasure in one of the chests in the weapon shop in baron.

I've changed 0 treasure chests. You're probably confusing the treasure drops from the original.

ah, yeah, that may be it.  i know the treasure chest i'm thinking of(the one on the left) had a "wrath of zeus" in it in ff4.  i must've not ever checked it in ff2us.
