And on that note: stream is back on
deal damage to it
(doesn't the magic lamp has a chance to kill one of it's part with odin?)
Odin kills the back part of Exdeath and Shoat has a chance to kill the Almagest spammer.
Dancing gear, Kaiser Knuckles (probably, with Time Mage needing Meteor), Rapid-Fire Monk?
Chicken Knife leveled up?
Plenty of Hi-Potions, Phoenix Down?
ExDeath can still cast Almagest, but I think it is a near-death thing.

Yeah. I was hoping for a trick that would involve any items already at my disposal. As it happened, I backtracked and bought some rods and slaughtered the flame.
...Haven't bought any spells. Felt invincible rocking through with four knights!
Cura eh. I'm gonna have to give in and backtrack now I think. Currently up to Byblos and just can't squeak past him. I've one single flame rod and thats it. Normal attacks barely scratch him unless I use Two-Handed which in turn leaves me open to being massacred.
Can't believe I've run myself into a dead end like this by being stupidly unprepared. I need an Evac and Zoom spell!
Finally made it to the second world. Killing the abductor is super easy with blue mage thanks to vampire, but that chest got me once again. They could at least put something cool in it.
Yep! It's pretty useful.
Aside from poison gas.
Yep! It's pretty useful.
I have 67 hi-potions, 21 elixirs and 28 phoenix downs, I hope I don't need more than that. And I have the rest of things, I suppose I'm ready.
I think my strategy will be Hastega -> Summons (Odin, Golem and Carbuncle) -> KILL

I wholly approve of the music you are playing. Though there was one song I really wanted to know what it was but chat was playing up so I couldn't ask. I may pick your brains when the archive is up.
Oh! You got thief. Seems like you are only allowed Wind Jobs!

Am I the only one who finds world 2 a drag? It's the slowest part of the game IMO
Why do you think that? I think all the game is pretty well paced.

*Garble, garble... Something about killing bosses simultaneously... garble, garble*
God damn you stupid pigs! God damn you Berserker!
I seriously hate Triton, Phobos and Nereid.

Use Odin, you can recharge the magic lamp two rooms before that boss.

Magic Lamp? FFS, where is it? I never bother with it as I usually play with a summoner.
You have to use Boko to reach the superior part of Istory Falls, then you find the lamp.

If you haven't gotten it yet, at the bottom part of the pool of water near the dwarves. I have never ever fought those three "normally" with the rechacrge point that close.
Edit: At least I think you can get it there. It's a long trek out otherwise.

It's the aesthetic of the world (work is dark), I don't really enjoy the dungeons,

Thank you, though I lucked through it by killing my Berserker and slowly casting Thundaga every turn. I am however still going to get the lamp as a back up.
I got monk as my first job and I beat every boss in one round until I hit Byblos.
Damn, two Almagests!!! But I think my group can kill him (if Krile wants).
Don't try two kill it. Why do you want to beat it?

Finally beat that stupid Sand Worm.
The Library was no problem, as Ifrit and Byblos easily fell to Spellblade Blizzara and Fira respectively, but when I went up against that Sand Worm, he decimated my (Monk-2MK-Bard) party. None of the spellblades were effective against it, my party couldn't heal fast enough to overcome multiple quicksands, and my Bard's songs were useless against it. Bard came in handy against Ramuh, as Romeo's Ballad affected him, but none of the status songs affects the sand worm.
I finally decided to just head to Jachol for Coral Swords and some EXP. Gained a level, won a death sickle around Crescent after only 8 Harvesters (Useless to my party, but I thought it would be funny to mention
), and went back to face the sand worm. This time, I started off with Mighty March, and concentrated primarily on regular attacks with MKs Bartz and Faris and monk Galuf. I lucked out, not only did I have more HP due to the leveling, the Sand Worm didn't spam quicksand, and my Elven Mantles and Main Gauche deflected its regular attacks. It finally fell within a few rounds, and I was able to make it through the rest of the desert without much trouble.
It's funny that I had more trouble with it than I did last year with my previous (WM, Berserker, Geomancer) party, probably due to Berserker getting in a few lucky shots and White Mage being able to keep up with the healing.

Idk, I was going to open the door and it's there!
any good place to grind for money outside of regole?
no berserker risk?
Team Mediocrity (Thf/RM/Ranger/Zerk) has hit a definite wall with the crystals. Arrived at Forest of Moore at level 22, and am currently level 32. Basically spinning the wheel hoping for a favorable Berserker/Dancing Knife/Animals outcome. If I'm lucky they enter danger mode and my Thf/Ranger can finish it off within one cast. When I'm unlucky I have to hope for Nightengale procs to heal me and hope I don't get a damage proc that sets another cyrstal into panic mode.
My current conundrum is that leveling more will put a sword dance hit just into panic mode. The up shot is that 5 or so levels should let sword dance procs one shot the crystals. The silver lining is that by the time I'm done here I can probably skip all fights except bosses till the end.

I've got another twitter account that is doing Berserker risk next.
Even if I did get him as the last character a Berserker with heals, protect, haste and two weapons is no challenge at all.
You sound really fucking demanding. Say please.
Haha maybe next year, Hard Mode will remove the chance of getting certain jobs completely
I nominate Blue Mage/Summoner/Bard/Chemist.
I won! It did Almagest, but I could defeat him before he could do a second one (without the protection of Golem to avoid the latter physical attacks it's even more dangerous).
This has been an easy fiesta thanks to Time Mage. I thought that monk was the worst class of the four until I saw that Bartz/Bobo was the only one surviving Almagest.
Great!

Final time?
19:14, but I used the speed button a lot, so I don't know how much real time I've spent in total.

After throwing as many as battle axes as I can against Archeoaevis, I got my next job!
Woo, dancer time!
So my job set up is: Theif/Mystic Knight/Ninja/Dancer
Changed my avatar to awesome Dancer|Bartz for this.
