Question for all you FFT veterans out there

The most annoying glitch has to do with magic. You know how you can cast magic like shell, protect, fire etc. and the tiles turn green indicating where the spell will be cast on the field? Well, 30%-40% of the time it'll be cast in a random spot near-by (it obviously doesn't hit anything in the end)
And a boss on the battle field once jumped over something that wasn't there..

What? First time I hear anything like this....

Sure your units aren't wearing the Reflect armor? In this game reflect doesn't kick spells back at you but off in a 'random' direction. Otherwise I have never heard of what you are talking about.

What version/console are you playing on?

I've also never heard of this magic glitch. Velo's explanation seems likely.

[cat121212]

I know! I was searching around and I hadn't heard anyone complaining about this particular glitch either...(I'm playing WotL version)

I'll check to see if my characters are wearing Reflect armour, but I'm pretty sure I didn't put any on them I hope I can find a solution to this, since I really love playing the game (Just checked then, no one was wearing Reflect Armour...)

[Raistlin]

Are you sure you didn't accidentally select the character standing on the square, instead of aiming at the squares themselves? If they move, then the spell obviously would move.

I can't think of any other explanation. I've mostly played the PS1 version, but I've also played WotL and never experienced or heard of this. If there is no gameplay explanation (such as Reflect armor or mistargeting), I can only assume it's a problem with your PSP or individual game.

[cat121212]

Hmm, I haven't been mistargeting...(I bought WotL from the PSN store for my PSVita, which is relatively new) Edit: I think I'll try deleting WotL off my console then re-downloading it to fix the problem

You already beat the game but I'll mention what I do anyway.

I go another route. The Archer, Thief, Lancer Route. And Chemist as a second.

I'm usually a Thief with Steal / Item / Auto Potion / Maintenance / Ignore Height.

I keep Hi Potions to X-Potions equiping speed boosts like Green Beret with Agrias as a tank. It works pretty well although the battles take a little longer. I end up having lots of money/equipment in the end when I start a new game.

Otherwise I'd agree with the Samurai route.
