    Actually, I'm not sure. I know the MA stat is used for the damage algorithm but I'm not sure if Faith accounts as well since they work more like Physical moves when used.

    No problem.

    Auto-Potion is my go to Reaction skill for flimsy jobs. Just remember to sell all your potions and eventually Hi-Potions once X-Potions get unlocked. The skill will go through potions first then Hi-potions, then X-potions and finally Elixirs. X-Potions are more than enough to survive most of the game's nastiness.

    Ramza's skills like Yell will also permanently affect them, but for the most part Orator it is. You can raise a character's Bravery or faith to 100 in battle but for every 15 pints you raise/lower it, you gain/lose 2 points to it permanently after battle. so you'll have plenty of time to notice if they will get too bad.

    Don't bother with Tier 4 magic, the cost/damage/cast algorithm makes them kind of worthless. If you plan on doing grinding sessions, Toad is useful. For the most part I would stick to Tier 1 and 2. You only need the magic for pesky long range opponents and technically the Samurai do naturally have a skill for that in their own repertoire.

    Bravery affects your chances of using Reaction abilities and your physical damage output. If it's high obviously you will use reaction commands more often and do more damage. If it's low you don't. If it's really low, the character will turn into a chicken in battle and flee until they regain enough Bravery to revert back. If their Bravery gets permanently reduced under a certain level (below 30 if I remember correctly), the character will actually abandon your army due to becoming a coward and you get special dialogue from story characters whom this happens to. A character with low bravery, but not so much to become a chicken, has a higher chance of obtaining the Rare Item with Move-Find Item ability. So outside of having one character to use for finding rare loot, there is generally no drawback for having high bravery.

    Faith is a bit more complex, it affect your character magic ability. Not only it's damage output but also it's hit rate. Even if your character has high faith, if their target has low faith, the chances of the move landing will be much more difficult and the outcome may not be so good either. If a character's faith is reduced to 0, they gain the atheist stat and magic won't affect them, though only Worker 8 has this effect permanently. If a character's faith gets too high (above 90, if I remember correctly), the character will abandon your army due to choosing to join the church and live an ascetic life. Faith is a bit of a double edged sword as having low faith means your party won't need to fear enemy magic, but it also reduces the effectiveness of your own mages using buffs on them. It needs more balancing by the player as having high faith can be both helpful and deadly.

    I'd assume they reworked it for the mobile version.

    How far along are you?

    What are you playing now when you're not so busy? Still on FFT?

    Yeah it was pretty unappealing to me. But I gave it a fair chance and I'm glad I did because I really like the game now!

    I've also been surprisingly in to Fallout: New Vegas

    It's not about the hype, I'm just trying to give games a fair chance before I stop playing. I've played some games that started out very meh that I ended up really liking. Like Xenoblade. The beginning for me was almost off-putting

Part of your world

by Fynn on 06-06-2017 at 04:37 PM
So there's this nagging issue I've had for quite some time now. It's a pretty abstract issue but one I think is pretty interesting and perhaps even important to share nonetheless. For many reasons, it has only become more pronounced recently.

As some of you may know, I want to be a writer. I try to do as much writing as I can. I even do writing for a living, though as an SEO copywriter, it's not exactly that I have an opportunity to spread my creative wings as part of what keeps giving

On FFVII (part of my Fmarathon rant)

by Fynn on 11-23-2016 at 11:16 AM
Decided this is worthy of being a blog-post, since it turned out to be a much bigger rant than I expected and I'm not sure the marathon's audience is really there for that kind of stuff

Frustrations of the writerly sort

by Fynn on 07-01-2016 at 11:13 AM
So there's this thing I've been struggling for quite some time. I don't want to call it a "writer's block" because it kind of seems like an excuse for being lazy. And it usually doesn't last long. This is something that's been eating at me for a long time.

I just kinda feel that I can't write anymore.

I mean, I still write articles for the site sometimes and I write other texts at my work, but it seems like, creatively, I've dried up. I'll come up with ideas

On story expectations

by Fynn on 03-30-2016 at 11:57 AM
So this is kind of a general discussion, but the general rant I have is based on three popular 3DS RPGs: Bravely Default, Fire Emblem: Awakening, and Shin Megami Tensei IV. Sorry if this is chaotic, as I'm just writing this as it comes into my mind. Also, spoilers from the three games abound.

All of those games were very well received, though for different reasons. SMT is kind of here to serve as a neutral ground, as the evaluation of its story is pretty divided, whereas the consensus

Character Appreciation: Junpei Iori

by Fynn on 03-30-2016 at 10:37 AM
This is in no way an idea I stole from Pumpkin, no siree.


Junpei Iori is a character from the Persona franchise. He first appears in Persona 3 and all of its subsequent releases as a playable party member. He becomes a social link character as well in the female path of Persona 3 Portable, though he isn't date-able. He is also playable in
