Green tiles fall to leviathan, Ghosts are still a total pain in the ass, I'll never come back.  Onto the sealed cave.    :cycle:

what are your levels?

what were they when you fought rubicant?

havin that much trouble with ghosts?  they're worth a ton of exp. as i recall.  also, you need to remember that having count cast on you a second time resets the timer, which they do a ton.  i know in my playthrough rydia, cecil, and kain lived most of the time during ghost fights.  rydia and kain would die a few times per fight, but cecil almost never did, because of the constant recasts. as i recall, i was around lv. 38-42, and didn't have too much trouble collecting all 6 or so chests.

Levels are just under 40 for everyone but Kain, Kain gained 8 freebies when he cleared the whole monsters cave on his own, so hes 46.  At rubicant, I'd say everyone was upper 30's, but honestly I can't remember what they were exactly.  Rubicant was incredibly easy though, I remember that.

Also, I just remembered I missed a few chests in the green cave... and I was fortunate enough to stumble on a cursed ring!!!  :wtf: :omg:

So now I don't think anyone can stop Kain, if I felt like it.. between his already impressive armor and the option to have over 100 magic defense in a single item, I think he would be unstoppable..

 :edit: I see you were a bit higher level, so you probably didn't HAVE to double cast Leviathan to kill em off.  xD

Also, I forgot to mention currently the ring is just going on Rydia or someone else; Kain doesn't need help surviving.  Lol.

 :edit: :edit: I've already gotten 90% of the chests, just remembered I missed a few.

Alright.. cleared it out.  Now I remember, you get Sylph if you have the frying pan... which I don't.  Stingy whore wouldn't give it to me, last time.  :lame:

Anyway, this time for real, off to the sealed cave, with my more ridiculous equipment.

i was only a couple levels above you.  i know i never used levithan.  pretty sure i stuck with either mist dragon or titan.  i think titan.

it's nice how much stronger edge is, huh? :happy:

 :edit:
more good stuff in the sealed cave.  make sure you hit every trap door! i don't think the evil wall was very tough..

I see someone finally legitimately won a Cursed Ring to see how much it rocks now.  :D  And the Ghosts are definately a pain in the ass--and that was probably unexpected eh?  Truth be told I really didn't touch Leviathan and Asura.  Next time I will. 

I'm loving these playthroughs because it gives me the extra testing I need to tweak it the second time.  I still someday want to go through and fix everything as well as tweak some other stuff.

I'm surprised this is the first time someone's noticed to be honest.   :whoa:

the only time i ever won one was plaything through dkk's alpha of ff4et.  it drops so rarely, i didn't bother to look for one in your hack to see if anything changed. maybe i'll give it a shot tomorrow.

Yeah, everything's going my way..  :omghax:

Edge's improvement is much appreciated, Rage is downright amazing.. Berserk and haste, huuuuge damage.

Hmmm.  I suppose you had to pick a lot of people up off the floor when you fought the ghosts, hmm??  They don't re-count until it's too late, for me.. half my team ends up on the floor every time.    :lock:

The cursed ring is going to make Rosa invincible to everything but doom, since I'll have Cecil covering her 24/7

yeah, like i was saying, cecil stayed alive most of the time. rydia and kain stayed alive part of the time, and edge and rosa were usually on the ground. i didn't revive anyone in those fights. honestly, it's hard to believe that they aren't using count often enough. that's all they did to me.  as i fought more, i was beating them faster due to the exp, and by the last few most everyone was staying alive. 

gotta go find one of those cursed rings..

Yeah, I'm too picky about my exp distribution, I always have to have everyone up.  I'm sure sometime in the near future I'm gonna run a dungeon with Kain on the ground the whole time to make up for his powerleveling.

Lol.

Oh, by the way.  Blood spear should be nerfed to hell, it's wayyyyyyy too good.  Anything that lets people solo entire dungeons just by repeat jumping is ridiculous, IMHO.

The Blood Spear should be nerfed probably--but I think its usefullness is about to expire.   :laugh:

yeah, you know, the only reason i don't agree about the blood spear being nerfed is that it isn't around for an incredibly long time. 

what, sylvan cave, land of summoned monsters, sealed cave, tower of bab-il, and that's it?

been a few months since i played, but i'm pretty sure i used a different spear once i got past the giant. :)
