Question about Trance: Is there any simple way to store it like in FFVII / FFX? Why can't I walk around with a full Trance gauge and trigger it at will? I'm getting kinda pissed off about having Trance trigger at the least necessary times.

It's a sad fact, there is no way to hold trance... it's a come-and-go thing...Your best bet is putting those close to trance in the back row so they get less and when a boss comes... put 'em in the front
And FFVII could have made it so you could still Attack in Limit Mode, which is why I can't ever try to save it, which is not a big deal since they get beat and go into limit whenever a boss shows up
Row has nothing to do with how quickly the trance bar fills.
It fills based on how bad you get hurt, in the back row, you only get half the damage... meaning half the trance raise... meaning it could be possible to save it, but no guarantee...
Then what does?Originally Posted by SoftReset
Damage effects don't seem linear - if I get hit for 50 16 times, my bar won't fill as fast as if I get hit for 400 twice. It also seems to fill faster when allies are down. Aren't there more factors like these?
The Trance bar is a numerical value ranging from 0 (empty) to 255 (Trance). Every hit fills the bar by anything from zero up to Spirit minus one, making it as random as one of Quina's attacks. It doesn't matter how much damage is taken, what type of attack it was, or anything like that.
The only thing that will eliminate the randomness is the High Tide ability. With that every hit will increase the bar by Spirit.

Any tricks to controlling Spirit then? Equipment/status effects? I don't really see any stat-boosting shortcuts in FFIX, but that's because I don't have much experience with it.

Read the section written by Terence for a detailed explanation of FFIX's stat-growth system.

Nice work, and thanks.
Personally, I think trance is the most logical Limit system. It makes sense that you wouldn’t be able to store a massive energy flux like that…
That summary blows and it's wrong, plus the URL is a dead end.
Yeah, I'm with ToD on this one, it's more realistic this way, even if realism isn't something one can relate to FF games but meh.
:joey:
ive never thought of it that way. its not like zidane,cloud,sqall E.C.T could say"as much as im hurt right now and no matter how pissed off i am i want to save the energy for the boss fight.". but i usually think of it this way,its a video game. but in FF9 its clearly more logical but somewhat inconvenient.but i always just train up until the trance is near full before the boss fight so its no big deal.
