Thread: Why the hell does the soldiers can make magic?

  1. #1

    Default Why the hell do the soldiers can cast spells?

    I'm quite demanding in the logical development of stories.

    If we can't make magic without junctioning a GF...
    does that mean that every Galbadian and Esthar soldier that make magic have a junctioned GF?
    That is weird.

    I noticed that in the beginning the soldiers only attack phisically.
    It would be better if they later, instead of using magic as a result of our higher level, made stronger physical attacks or enhanced weapons!

    Hmm, i think that they have some other form of GF that they use, but they don't junction directly to their magic...because their stats don't exactly seem to raise do they? They may just have some magic form of weapon that allows magic to junction to the weapon (an ff7 connection?).

    The sorceress.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Do you mean the sorceress gave them the power to do magic? That can be a possible reason, yes. Thank you.
    Adel gave her powers to Esthar's soldiers, and Edea to Galbadian soldiers.
    That may be.

    But even before they were under the reign of Edea, they still had magic right? Or did they just not use it? I can't remember

    my theorie is that i dont have a theorie so some one explain this please.actually i think they have a small amount of magic power but not as much as a sorceress and they used draw to get magic from the monsters. but how did the monsters get magic and how did whatever they got there magic from get magic? all i9 can can say realy is game programming.this is turning into one of the what came firdt the chicken or the egg things.

    Monsters are super sexy, cool, awesome and magical beings... therefore they can use magic.

    The Galbadian soldiers can use magic since they are cool guys who breaks the laws and do whatever they FEEL like! So basically... they don't care at all about the "laws of nature" and just use magic because they feel like doing so.

    Well I have a theory. Not a brilliant one... but here it goes:

    I think that the soldiers know to make magic because it's a military ability. They learn to fight, use weapons and to use magic.

    Like the SeeDs who also learn the same abilities like magic as well. I could be wrong but the soldiers are also trained to learn magic...

    What do you guys think, about that?

    Seeds junction GFs. That's why they can use magic. However its unknown if regular Galbadian and Esthar soldiers junction GFs, but unlikely that they do. I'd have to say they don't have GFs, but use magic through one of the sorceress', as mentioned earlier.

    I agree. Seeds are trained to use magic as well... but they can't use it unless they have a junctioned GF!
    Unless the GFS can be taken from under every stone of the road (we saw that is not the case! Getting GF's is a hard task!), the soldiers have a special abbility that seeds don't have! That is not logical from me.
    Soldiers shouldn't use magic. As I said before, the right way to improve their abbilities should be higher physical attacks or weapon enhancement.

    well, despite Edea's sorcery powers, she could already cast magic w/out a GF. if she can do it, any human can.

    Edea, like all sorceresses, is infused with the portion of the Great Hyne, which is why she can use magic without a GF. Not all people have that power.

    The only explaination I have is that is that equipping a GF is not the only way to use para-magic. Maybe it's their weapons or something.
