DQV does have the better game play than DQIV, but I still liked the story of DQIV more. And to be fair, the general consensus is that DQV has the better story between the two DQ games. I still recommend FFIV, but eventually get all 3 because they are all good.

If you need 100k for gil farmer don't buy extra items or gear (especially Mithril gear), remember to unequip Cecil's Dark gear as well as other departing characters and sell it, use the Airship to go to Eblan and loot the chests, got to the Mithril town and loot the Silver staff and iirc there is other stuff to loot there, loot the Toria chests after the Dark Elf. IMO it is very doable and worth it to give Cid Gil Farmer before Zot.

Well, they really don't always take their turns first, though it's true, turn rotation favors monsters unless you're really fast. Suggestion: change to Wait if you're on Active, and lower the battle speed to 2 or 3 if you're at 1. After that, there are many ways around it, like knowing what armors to wear, and knowing what attacks to use. Granted there are a lot of cheap attacks, but if the monsters spam fire breaths,...

Hahaha I have no wrath to unleash. Most of the guys who've replied so far probably know more than I do. I've been wondering about defense as well. It certainly is an issue in many other games. I think another question is whether the defense gives a percentage or a constant deduction. If the deduction is percentage, then one strong hit or many weak hits will amount to the same. But if the deduction is a constant, then multiple hits...

You're right. But, you don't know which armors to use or which enemies have disabling as priority number 1, until they kill you and lose like 1 hour of gameplay.

You're an odd one.

I can't make head nor tail of that first post. O_o

ignasia7: That is interesting indeed. I wasn't really referring to Haste + Hastemarch, it's interesting to know that there is such a thing as being "too fast". However, regardless if it is, it is not a valid point to say that Focus costs more time because it has a "casting time", in which that very sense, Haste "fixes" this problem. With that said, it is not surprising to see that...

In most Square RPGs, Defense is a subtraction rather than a %age. This is why your weaker characters will sometimes do 0 damage, and why strength matters more against high-defense enemies. I'm pretty sure the various versions of FFIV are this way too. I've done one FFIV DS triple-playthrough so far. I did the 3rd playthrough with sol o Cecil, using Focus x3 and Darkness against almost all bosses, and I always just assumed Focus did...

Hi there Thanks but that's the code I've been using. I'll try the subscription you suggested. You never know. I'm so sick of the game by this stage, I probably will just go ahead and finish it minus the pudding and related sidequests. I mucked up early on by missing out on things from Palom/Porom anyway.
