    Default FF4 Advance- Kains Jump Gimped?

    Im up to the cave of trials in FF4A, and my Cecil and Kain are both level 67. I noticed throughout the whole game that Kain's jump takes longer to do than the SNES or PSX version of the game, and also even does less damage. It hardly does more than his regular attack, and doesnt attack more than Cecil can. It also takes pretty long. Did they make his Jump weaker for this version of the game? I loaded up my files from the other 2 versions and noticed its a lot more effective in those games. Oh, and the weapons I have equiped on Kain and Cecil are Holy Lance and Ragnarok.

    Jump does take longer to activate in this version, but I don't feel it's weaker though

    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    It should take twice as long to do 1.5x damage.

    Jump's main usefulness comes from the fact that while Kain's average damage is reduced the fact that he's out of battle makes him invinicible for a short time (techincally speaking). Case in point : Lunar Bahamut. Near impossible to beat without smart use of the Jump command.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Default kains jump is good

    Kains jump might be weaker but it can save your butt like if you battle Zeromus and he does the Big bang thingy you can jump after he does it and you will have jumped before he does it again.

    By the way I have Kain lv.82 and Cecil lv.83

    Amen! OMG controversial! Double jump is the hax.

    Default don't diss characters in ff4

    If you played the other versions other than the gameboy one your missing out on Kain, Yang, Edward, and Edge. In the game boy version you can get the 50 floor dungeon after you beat the game and once you beat Kain, Yang, Edward, and Edge lunar bosses each character gets a new ability that replaces the old one for example:Edge gains the ability to plunder instead of steal>once you equip the equipment the boss dropped.

    Da point: Kain can double jump by equiping the dragoon gloves.yup
