    well put tailz, but I do believe that sleep is at best a 50% chance coming from the front. Also, you are taking into account his special abilites while ignoring mine. Templars can cast Astra, which means that he'll have to hit me twice with sleep, and both have to work, and I can just keep casting astra on myself until I can get into melee range. BTW as you know melee range for him is 8 panels, which I really, really like.

    Oh, and someone else picked just flat-out attack power as opposed to a balance. GOOD JOB, buddy!

    Edit: I forgot that templars can also cast silence...

    Once again, people underestimate the awesome power of Concentrate. With it, Sleep has a 70% success chance from the front, an 80% success chance from the side, and a 90% success chance from the back.

    sleep

    etc. etc.

    youl be beaten in no time.


    although your character is good i admit but against a redmage/whitemage combo i dont see him winning.


    i think i have a few more powerfull combinations against your char but cant be bothered to look it up now, anime awaits
    Oh come on do you really think I'd be impressed that easily? There are three flaws in this plan.

    1, Red Mage White Mage can act quicker than any other race that can use sleep.

    2, Red Mage can Doublecast Sleep increasing the success rate significantly.

    These two points make it pretty damn hard to land Sleep on a Red Mage before the Red Mage can do it to you.

    And the third...

    3, Ribbon. You cannot land Sleep on me - or any other staus for that matter.

    combining turbo mp and last breath on your assassin is an excellent way for a sure kill.

    ok concentrate is useful. I realy like concentrate. I admit, there would be a hell of a hard time getting over to the damn mage to kill it, but if I really have to I will put on a fortune ring and remove my angel ring. no more sleep. sleep is non-existant.

    was all like to who was acctually feeling due to the fact that :oscar: & :frylock: couldn't go to his b'day party. patted him on the back and :mog: said there's always next year. felt more , felt , but :moose: (who knows when (as the person he is) he came in) was more of a . :magus: jumped in and told that no one really likes him. BROKEN ran everyone over with a :sophia:. So lived happily ever after, especially after he had with :rsl:
    The end!

    Double Sword was nerfed from the way it worked in FFT. In FFT, it would allow you to hit twice on abilities like Armor Break and such, not just on your regular attacks and combos. If they'd kept that ability, it would have been a truly amazing attack (Double Sword + Ultima!), but, the way it is, I still think it is only second best, and that Concentrate wins the Best Support Ability prize.
