Hey. When I set classes to my dudes for the first time, for example my black mage, he can equip a rod, but he's much weaker with the rod than without it. Y4!

I don't know... It is pretty weird. But mostly I think it's funny. Especially for my monk, to whom I've never equipped a single weapon for the very reason he's stronger w/o them.

Yes I did, but if I get it for you its probably going to be by trade in at babbages. Also WaWard, are you now part of the YFG Cuz if you are thats definatly O.K with me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! scratch the if part I am going to get it for you!!!!!! I swear it!

Fang probably meant the your face brigade, so he REALLY meant the YFB.

That's not really anything new. Monks are generally better when they're unarmed in FF.

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 9:43 pm

Yes, I know, but a black mage?

Kakeru · Post by **Kakeru** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 9:48 pm

For Black Mage even if the attack rating is higher without weapons, if s/he's in back like s/he should be then it won't make a difference. Personally I equip my Black Mage with a bow and arrows in the other hand so she can still do decent damage from the back row when she's not using spells.

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Sun Dec 03, 2006 9:53 pm

Makes sense.

I keep getting killed

Kakeru · Post by **Kakeru** » Mon Dec 04, 2006 2:15 am

because if you followed that advice you got earlier you ditched your Monk, which was stupid since Monk is awesome, and you don't have a Black Mage as I recall.

Change the monk to a red mage, and give the white mage the fire staff as soon as you get it.

I did this

Monks in FF3DS still retain the NES FF Monk Syndrome, in that they are pretty mediocre until their levels get around the early 20's. Coincidentally, this is where the Red Mage starts to decline in usefulness.

Early in the game (prior to the second jobset), your hardest hitter is a dual-wielding Thief, period.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Tue Dec 05, 2006 11:13 am

I'm not really persistantly playing the game.
5 minutes here or there on a bus or something.
I intend to play until the end though as I'm enjoying it when I do play.

I've found Red Mage pretty useful. Aside from some MP issues (I still have 0 MP for level 5 magic), my Red Mage out-damages my Knight (previously my warrior).
I finally reached a town with summoning Magic, so I checked out evoker, but I wasn't really impressed.. Especially with Shiva... After a few levels of Evoker I'm assuming Summoner, the more powerful version, gets unlocked. I don't know if I'll go for it.. I'd be replacing my black mage, whcih I'm pretty happy with right now, and I don't really like the lack of controll with Evoker. Maybe it's different for Summoner, but right now whenever I use Shiva she mostly uses "mesmerize" and all the chocobo does is escape, so the level for which I have the most MP is useless.

There is one thing I thought was pretty entertaining though... Small spoiler..
[spoiler]So I was having problems fighting Garuda. His Thunder spell was decimating my party and I was getting pretty frustrated. So, I decided to put a bunch of Dragoon equipment I'd recently gotten to use. I changed every member of my party Dragoon, got them all two Wind Spear's each, and fought random battles until everyone was adjusted to the job and went to fight Garuda.
Turn1: Everyone Jumps.
Turn2: Everyone lands doing 2000+ damage (one did over 3600).
Garuda Dies.
non-traditional party set-ups ftw.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Ah, so have you just discovered the official "dragoon strategy(?)"

. I remember doing that with a nasty FF5 boss back in the day (XDeath when you first meet fight him in a forest, I think, before some spoiler happens...). And even before that, in FF6, using Esper Palidor + some dragoon & 2 weapons relics (+ Gogo's mimic FTW

)[/spoiler]

I've been playing the game quite a lot recentl.
My party finally doesn't suck

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sun Dec 17, 2006 10:23 am

I've just got to the point where you fuck off to the main world map.

luna-wolfdemon · Post by **luna-wolfdemon** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 8:26 pm

Josh bought me this game finally for christmas (yessssssssssssssss.) Opening presents tonight, at which point i will get my DS, and proceed to play the hell out of it.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 11:21 am

Anybody got a fucking friend code then?

WaWard · Post by **WaWard** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 11:45 am

i haven't taken my DS online yet, because for some stupid reason they only support the broken WEP.

Undine · Post by **Undine** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 12:32 pm

I do, I'll post it later

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 7:32 am

I levelled my characters too much mid-game, and I'm killing bosses in 4 hits

Reminds me of FFXII rly

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Thu Jun 08, 2017 9:15 am

I had to dig pretty far to check if a FF3 DS thread exists.

This game is great and everyone who likes FF should play it through. It's been released on steam if you don't have a DS.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/23912 ... NTASY_III/

Refia even shows up in World of Final Fantasy representing this game.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Thu Jun 08, 2017 9:54 am

You know, I never played this. I realized I should have too so... backlog++

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Thu Jun 08, 2017 9:57 am

Finish what you started first. Don't let FF3 become another casaulty.

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Thu Jun 08, 2017 9:58 am

Man....but I like novelty.

Asaroth Larot · Post by **Asaroth Larot** » Thu Jun 08, 2017 10:06 am

Dont you have like 3 Dragon Quests running concurrently?

Lord Golbez · Post by **Lord Golbez** » Thu Jun 08, 2017 10:11 am

Maybe....

Dragon Quests are pretty interchangeable but I wasn't liking DQIX too much. DQV was pretty good, but I was late game and felt like I should do some leveling. DQVI I was playing at the same time as DQV and stopped when I started getting more momentum into DQV.
