Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Unless you get lucky with confuse, of course.
Also, Dust, are megalixers subject to the same restrictions as an elixir (only can be received 1/session)? The asterisk is only on the elixir description.Last edited by Mecharious; 2010-11-21 at 03:14 PM.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Or tricksy with Reflect.
I didn't ever anticipate them to be common enough to apply the same restriction. I'd say no simply because it probably won't come up, but GM's call.Last edited by Dust; 2010-11-21 at 03:23 PM.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
In the description of throw, it says that it counts as an ordinary attack and for an ordinary attack, the concealed weapon i have equipped would give me sneak attack. so I dunno what happens there.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
I could see it coming up. I mean, having a megalixir and a regular elixir isn't too far-fetched.
Which makes me wonder how a megalixer is different from an elixer. Does the liquid shoot out of the bottle and auto-aim for your ally's mouths?
This is why I love Final FantasyCheck out the Final Fantasy d6 System by Dust.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Does it say anywhere exactly how to make an attribute check? I haven't found it. I'm basically assuming here that you use your attribute rating modified by 2d6 to make the check.

I'm pretty sure that's how it works. It wouldn't make sense any other way.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
I'm running a game in a week or 2 on another forum and the people playing haven't played D anything games before.......nor have I GMed. Any advice?
Also maybe updating the link on the first page with the mega upload one would help. Ended up with a slightly outdated version of it from this link http://www.mediafire.com/?ua66kyai9l31qal
How out dated is it?Last edited by wiimanclassic; 2010-11-24 at 08:09 PM.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Advice: http://www.wikihow.com/Be-a-Dungeon-Master
But seriously, just have a general idea of where you want players to go/what you wan them to do and see what they do with it. If you DM really strictly, then it'll suck.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Final Fantasy is made to be a game not a "simulation" like dnd, so be light hearted on your heroes, let them look cool, and also if they come up with a far fetch attack description, let them do it but dont be afraid to ask for a skill check if needed. Ex: A player of mine tried to jump from pillar to pillar in order to attack a flying creature without the -4 penalty, mading him do an impressive Athletic check DC 13, he suceeded, result:
The dark knight wall run 6ft on the first pillar before somersaulting to the pillar behind him, on a higher spot. From there he jump one final time, raising his longsword over his head and bringing it down on the flying mysterious humanoid.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Thanks for the help. Hm.......gonna take that FF4 quest idea and use it as a start to a much longer campaign involving the fiends.....the test group for this went......VERY poorly. Then again the 2 people in that group were new also and one was just kinda there.
Oh well. The guys I'm playing with next week,running 2 games. 1 starts ahead of the other to test my ideas the other one going a week after, seems like they may do a bit better.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Dust, can Geomancers use intuitive magic (well, intuitive trance), and if so, would it use up their uses of geotrance for the session (I assume so)?

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Well 1 guy finished his sheet..........gonna see how having the baazar have a "special weapon" works out. Its gets stronger as its wielder does so every few levels it gets another ability.
Sound good?

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Ok a level 1 monk (8+vit)*1+10 for HP. Does a level 2 monk use (8+vit)*2+10 or (16+vit)*2+10?

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Has anyone done/created anything crazy yet in the arena? I want to see how much EVA I can get onto a ninja without freelancing because that is too much confusion. :P
And also to see how many different buffs I can make throw have. and just make it uberpwn.Last edited by Adell; 2010-12-03 at 06:23 PM.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Hm....if you got heavy and heavy arm mk 2 do they stack or does the second cancel out the other? If the stack then 2 Mk2s should......hello 18 strength Android.....it gets worse when the DM replaces it with Cyborg and you play a blue mage with mutation-construct. 1 free mk 2 and the other from your race....then a bunch of other grafts from taking the ability.
This is level 1. You will have to min max all others stats to 1 or in the case of dex 8 leaving 1 point if your str is 10. So 2 int I guess........my god can someone tell me how good this is if it its legal?
Wait....no extra grafts. Mutation-Beast for a tier 2 brawl weapon at the start.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
I was wondering, when a caster cast his spell and roll his 2d6 for his damage or the healing and end up with a double 6, does that trigger a limit break?
Also, if a dragoon who get his critical range down to 10-12 and roll 10 or 11 does that trigger the limit break or does it really require a double 6?

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Adell, the maximum EVA you could have as a pure ninja without Sunken State is 41. Max your DEX and INT and nothing else, have a Precision weapon that also has the Spell Effect: Vanish property. This build is so neat that it spontaneously caused Chaos to obtain a never-miss attack the first time someone proposed it.
With an Entertainer and Gambler friend, you could get this up to a ridiculous 56. This is one of the things that will be fixed in the next update of the book.
Starting as an Android with two Heavy Arms is entirely legal if you really wanted 14 STR. It allows you to push the cap higher at the cost of your other attributes, as you mentioned. Same thing with the better version of the same item; +8 STR at the cost of -8 DEX.
The downside, of course, is that enemies can damage both your arms, leaving you basically limbless in combat. While I kind of enjoy the idea of an android monk arguing with a GM that he should be able to use Improbable Weapons with his feet by kicking stuff at his enemies, it's a dangerous double-edged sword for min-maxers. Personally, I think you'd have to be crazy to submit a character to your GM with easily-destroyed robot arms.
Having a Tier 2 weapon at first level is easy to do.
Spells don't cause limit breaks. We could have easily written the rules differently, but it was done to be consistent with the games.
Limit Breaks occur on critical hits when your health is low enough. So Dragoons, Reach-weapon users, and anyone else with a way to increase their critical 'threat range' will probably limit break more often. Offensive casters are less 'bursty' and more reliable.
I hope a set of balance/typo fixes and general system improvement won't generate more to critique!Last edited by Dust; 2010-12-04 at 05:55 PM.

Re: Final Fantasy d6 (Complete System)
Update! No wai!
Anyway, I've been playing a game with my friends, and we're noticing that it's almost never viable to go for a high strength build. Jobs like Dark Knight, Paladin, and (melee) Fighter seem outclassed by jobs that only need to worry about Dex.
This is because someone like a thief can use their dex for accuracy, evasion, weapon damage, skills, and movement (if using a grid). A Dark Knight can use strength for damage and accuracy, but still needs to consider dex for their evasion. A fighter might as well use ranged weapons since then they can safely dump their strength, and focus on less stats.
The biggest issue with strength as a stat is that if you can have dex decide your damage, it is entirely useless. Earlier you mentioned it's okay because all classes will have some dump stat, but the problem is, every other stat has a use, even if it's not your main concern.
Dex: Weapon Damage*, Accuracy, Evasion, Movement, skills.
Vit: Hit points.
Int: Number of skill points, MP*, Skills.
Spr: Resist status effects, skills.
Str: Weapon Damage*, sometimes Acc.
(Asterisk means sometimes useful)
Strength also occasionally comes up for ability usage, and if you want to make disarm attempts (but not avoid them).
My friends and I decided to make it so weapons damage for ranged weapons and concealed weapons used half strength and dex. We also considered a shared ability that adds your strength rating to your effective dex score for calculating conc/ranged weapons, and a shared ability that added your dex rating to your effective str score for other weapons. (We justify the strength helping ranged guns because it would help prevent recoil... not the best reasoning, but we didn't want guns and bows to be two separate weapons).Last edited by Mecharious; 2010-12-04 at 06:52 PM.
