Mom knows best! 🙌

Haha I feel like every player has had a similar experience! If Dorter doesn't convince you to level up, then you're in for a rough ride. 😂 Thanks for sharing your story! Hope you had a chance to play through the storyline after all!

same here. i was in 6th grade. just had beaten ff7.

Beautiful! 🥲 It's truly inspiring to see how a game can resonate with people, how stories can linger over time, and how we can come together to appreciate it all. I think the most illuminating discovery when creating content for this community was the volume of fans, and their depth of fandom. Glad you were able to find the channel, and I really appreciate your sharing of your story! 🙏

Nice, they're amazing in this game! Did you end up going into a math related job when you got older? 😂

@@TacticsLive HAHAHA Luckily no!! My real life job is probably nearest to an Orator LOL

Glad to hear, Peter! And I'm glad to hear that you're still enjoying this classic to this day. Thanks for checking out the content! 🙏

Thanks YoshnJa! I had to look up when the first Job Focus episode premiered, and yep, it's been over a year this series has been running! Good to have this completed until the Unique characters' series and I can work on other videos in the meantime.

Thanks Seth! Glad I could nudge you back into another round of a beloved classic! 🙌

Haha it's my favorite possession! 😍

Thank you, Jowston, that means a lot to hear! Glad you enjoy the content and I appreciate you stopping by. 🙏

Considering the game is like 20 years old lol. Makes me wish a reboot would be done for the game

Agreed Preston! I'm a fan of Life Drain/Invigoration and you can definitely build a Mystic around that spell using swiftness and faith. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts! 🙏

Thanks for checking out the compendium, Mastujonen! 👋 Ramza's base class is a definite step-up from the standard Squire, since you have abilities like Chant, Scream, Tailwind, and you can learn Ultima. I think it's possible to expand Ramza's abilities, but I would love it even more if they made the Squire a better class that has reasons to come back to in the endgame, like Chemists for example. 👍

Yeah, Naive Noble. The remake should be Delita's side of the story...

@@briguy459nah he’s a punk 😂

In my game he’s a {color 08}Saint in chapter 4😂 I gave him modified Zalbag skillset called Blessings and gave Zalbag Beowulf skills made the A4 onion knight have crazy stat gains added 2-3 more enemies in every level made all the Lucavi level 99 and immune to every stat and absorb all magic Lionel is my new dorter trade

@@briguy459 They could make Ramza's unique class actually change and upgrade over the course of the story, like if he starts off as a "Naive Noble" in the Prologue and only has access to fairly basic abilities during that section of the game, but upon reaching Chapter 1, it could change to something like "Mercenary" where he could gain abilities that blend those of the Squire with those of a Knight, but possibly with the loss of the "Rend" abilities in exchange for abilities that deal increased damage to specific enemy types (from Human, to Undead, to Chocobos, to Dragons, etc.). And then after Ramza is branded a Heretic, his class could change again to the "Heretic" where he could gain access to Dark Knight-esque abilities. And then once you get to the point that the main villains shift from the corrupt church and nobles to the Lucavi themselves, his class could change one last time to something like "Martyr", where he could then gain abilities that allow him to take damage directed at adjacent allies, and in return he gains a temporary damage and defense buff. I feel like that would really fit with Ramza always being a hero at heart, but the events happening around him could take a toll that is shown in how his unique class changes throughout the story. This way, you are encouraged to clear the Prologue early, rather than just staying there and grinding endlessly so that you can access Ramza's better abilities once his class upgrades. They could even change up the "cameo" characters as well, where we might get someone like Clive & Jill from FF 16, and/or Ardbert from FF XIV, or possibly even 2B & 9S from NieR Automata (in much the same way that the duo shows up in FF XIV during the three NieR Raids).

Hey Denis! You may as well play a backed up version of WotL on a modern device - and that will give you access to multiplayer 🙌 I'm not holding out hope for a remaster personally, but stranger things have happened!

Solid combo! White Mage does enjoy a little boost to their Speed stat to assist in jumping. 👍

Now that I think about it, I would have loved a generic Holy Knight, if only for the sprites! 😍 TGC is amazing, couldn't agree more 💪

Hard to argue with all the blocking that Golem does! 💪

Hi GW, thanks for the comment! Iaido and high MA units like Reis and Beowulf are incredible combinations, and totally worth the grind for other casters in your squad. 💪

I think that's a pretty strong build already! Dual wield bare hands with high bravery is a recipe for pain and is very popular from what I've read. 💪

Good on you to give him a loan 👍

Thanks so much for checking out the content, and the Unique characters are on the way! I would like to finish up the Livestream series first just to get that out of the way, then it's go time for our favorite companions. 💪

Nice! Some monsters you can use as a step to reach higher ground, namely dragons. 👍

@@TacticsLive there is DRAGONS IN THE GAME?!?!?!?!

Also the wizard does not increase your magic attack rather increases the amount of mp you have. I believe only the mime increases your magic attack. I don't play war of the lions so maybe that got patched.

Correct - Black Mages have the highest MA class stat, but standard growth rates. Mimes are the only generic job with actual MA growth, with Mastered Onion Knight being the exception.

I tried my hand at creating a points system as a way to balance vanilla Tactics for pvp, but it's a lot of bookkeeping. I'd say the @tacticsleague pvp mod is the best version of a balance pass for competitive pvp. It's a little bit of a departure from vanilla, but nothing that a round or two of melee won't get you caught up with. Best part is the increase in viable combinations of units; even squires are legit!

Thanks man! I basically had to rewrite all the scripts for this, and dig up old footage hoping I had enough to fill out each section. I was pleased with the result and gave me a chance to incorporate some new motion graphics techniques I picked up over the course of the series. At the end of the day it's a good cap to finish things off and glad I can put this up on the shelf and call it done. Thanks for watching buddy, I'm heading over to watch the weird logic vid you just posted! 👋

@@TacticsLive It is a treat to watch the videos and a lot of the effects are awesome and info. Not to mention the clips match your commentary and what you are saying. Love it and can't wait!

That's Dark Knights for you, dragging you down to their level. 😈🔥

If you're curious about turning a mage character into a melee powerhouse I would suggest a Mystic with a pole and Doublehand, with as high MA as possible. Since poles use MA for their strength it makes this Job a double threat both from melee attacks and from debilitating magick!

@@TacticsLive Thank you, bro, for this advice. To be honest with you, I never played War of Lions. I like my old FFT for PS1. I didn't know that oracle's rod strength is based on magic attack, thank you for this advice, again.

Steal and Heal is my new favorite moniker! 😍 Steal is definitely strong on a Monk, and benefits from Brawler that comes innately. I can definitely see the benefit from an unarmed Thief with high bravery too! Thanks for sharing your experience, Sidney! 🙏

Thanks for sharing, William! 🙏 I agree, Samurai get slept on because offensive Iaido abilities aren't as powerful as a primary skill, unless you're female and bump your MA up like crazy. They have great melee power, though, and would highly recommend one as straight-forward bruiser with some utility and support. 💪

I almost always run Ramza as a Squire with Draw Out with all magic gear. I also run it on a Black Mage and it's insane how much damage they can do; substantially stronger than casting magic.

And no wait time, and no mp cost! 🙌

Dragoons with doublehand are ridiculous. You can literally jump to anyone and one shot them. Also their auto attacks do insane amount of damage. Samurai has more utility but damage wise the dragoon far outclasses it.

All good points, thanks for sharing your perspective! 🙌

Hey Marcos, thanks for sharing! I always thought of bringing nobility and class to Thiefs once I get them in my party. It's the Thiefs who aren't on my side that are dirty! 😅

@@TacticsLive Spoke like a Balthier hahaha Allright, Mr Treasure Hunter.

I have a tutorial video on how to Grow Characters with Super Stats that touches on the basics and which classes to use to get the best results - you can find it in the FFT Tutorials playlist!

@@TacticsLive 👍

Indeed I did not mention it verbally, but it is third in notable abilities on the side of the screen. 👍

Solid! 💪

Check out the links in the description for everything you need! 👍

Omg thanks

The PSP version of WotL has multiplayer ​@@Nurseakeem

One of the biggest losses in the PSP port!

Haha that's fair, GA! Chemists have too many notable abilities for my presentation! I'm a little torn on MP restoration, because Mana Shield usually goes on my melee units and it's paired with Manafont. My casters tend to use Shirahidori, so by the time they've run out of MP hopefully they've blasted the enemy with spells.

No

On the PS1 version, I had forgot to save for a bit, and like an idiot, sent out all my characters on jobs. Moved one spot, and ran into a random battle that was 10+ Monks. It is probably a "oh I f'ed up" moment in gaming I'll never forget.
