Here's a few questions that i'm expecting to get:
Q: this looks hard and complicated. why is it like that?
A: this game is set up like you are actually in a Final Fantasy Boss battle. you have a set of actions that you get to choose from and, just like the battle system in the FF's, you have to wait for your next action.
Q: how do you play?
A: this one i expect the most. you can choose any character from anything with the name "Final Fantasy" in the title. you then enter the battle saying your character's name (before we start) and after we start post your character's action for that turn.
Q: can we kill you?
A: no you cannot kill me. the point is to survive the post count. if the band of FF heroes have one person alive when the required post count is reached, you win. if none of you are able to make it to the end, the evil guy (me) wins.
Q: what is the action time used for?
A: action time is how long you have to wait to use another command from the list. lets say you use a potion. you can post again 30 min after you first use the potion. its gets really easy once you get used to it. just remember, you cannot act until your action timer is out.
Q: whats with the status ailments? those are new to this thread.
A: correct. status ailments have just been brought into the Final Battle thread. lets say you get poisoned, you will lose 1000 HP each post that you dont cure the poison. if you use an antidone to cure the poison on any post, you will not lose any HP to the poison in that post and there on out unless you get poisoned again. there are a total of 5 ailments this game. they are poison, petrify, curse, berserk, and silence. you will be able to read how they affect you when the main post goes up.
Q: where do i pick my character?
A: you can pick your character over at the main thread now because it is oficially open to everyone. i am looking forward to making this battle, the first one back, the best one since it left off.
Q: how much damage do you take in defense mode?
A: wow! i can't believe i forgot to put that in! your damage is contiually halved until your next post up to 3 hours. no longer because you will automatically go out of defense mode.
Q: can i choose anyone?
A: yes, you can choose anyone as long as they are related to the Fanal Fansasy series or is invovled in something with "Final Fantasy" in the name. otherwise you will be disqualified from only this game but can join the next one if you follow the rules.
Q: im new to this and i need help to understand how this works.
A: im posting an hyperlink in the first post to an older version of this same thread. please check it out if you are new to this game.
Q: whats with the revival and removal concept?
A: when someone hits zero HP, you have a choice of reviving that person (they cant do anything if they are dead). if no one revives them within two days, they are placed in the temporarily removed spot in the thread and 10 posts will be subtracted from the total. if they want back in, they must post that they want back in and someone can then revive them. the 10 posts will be added back on and everything will go back to normal.
Questions from faraz-azar
Q: so do i just say gabranth attacks and then i have to wait 15 min and then minus it by lets say 9 cuz 9 ppl are playing and wait 4 min then attack?
A: no you must wait 30 min before you attack. the first part is how much it slows my next action down.
Q:Â how much mp do spells cost and can i cast any spell i want during the time that i have and then i have to wait?
A: the MP cost is right after the name of the spell, you can cast any spell that you want but you must subtract cost from remaining MP (you start with 999). after you use the spell, you must wait the time it requires you to wait at the end of its description
Q: how long do i have to wait to use items?
A: the time is right after the item.
Q: are there infinite items and for items if we use it no matter how many ppl there are the time wont decrease?
A: yes, the number of item are unlimited but the time it takes til next action is always the same.
Questions from eztarg8
Q: Will the abilities list be posted in the battle thread?
A: they already are. what you people have been posting in called "The FFFU Final Battle V - The Advent Children Edition" is the main thread.
Q: Who is our BRAIN wizard who knows who has how long and how much will be taken away with time? That really time consuming.
A: important - you are talking to one of the people that knows how long this will last. right now the post count is at 620 and who knows how long it will take. it will take at least a month to complete it i know for a fact. i misread the question. real answer to question - keep track of your own stats for sure. i will try to post the big picture every two days maybe three days. so pay attention!!!
