RM2K Damage Algorithms
They are accurate, unfortunately; I did some tests a few months ago and came up with the above conclusions. INT does affect skill damage, but it's so miniscule it's not worth worrying about.
Fun fact: skills with INT Influence do more damage when enemy's DEF is high, and less if it's low. Skills with ATK Influence ignore DEF altogether.
I repeat, algorithms are the same in 2K and 2K3 and they are completely broken.

RM2K Damage Algorithms
Intelligence is worthless and Defense only reduces damage from "Normal" attacks.
Get Algorithmate and run some tests if you don't believe me.
Oh, and algorithms are shared between both RM versions.

One more thing; when I saw a Field item which reduced duration of Boost effects I thought "how the heck is that supposed to be useful?! I want my Boosts to last as long as possible!". Oh, how wrong I was when I faced the Slums boss :)

BTW, boss difficulty is perfect. Takes me back to the days of playing SMT 3 (for the first time) on Hard without any walkthroughs. Mmm...

How the hell do you get the secret item (after jumping down a long shaft) in the Slums? Is it even possible with Erin?
As for the Black Orb boss simply equip everyone with Shock weapons, and buy 5-10 Shock damage items. It makes the fight pathetically easy :)

Afterall you accumulate EX and AP for the super move, if you can't use it then what's the point?
I can see it being handy when and if Erin joins the party, for easy healing OR if there exists a character with high AP low EX abilities.
BTW, what exactly do those +25% damage if blah blah weapons do?

Works great :)
A couple of thing I noticed:
- AP boosting ability on Violet is worthless. You get only 1 more AP, whereas you get 2 AP by guarding AND you reduce damage. Make it so that it gives you 3 AP at least. Same with Scott's EX ability - why use it when I can simply attack and get 1 EX AND do some damage?
- Vice makes you unable to use EX abilities, which also makes it pretty much worthless. I tried to take advantage of it in the Slums boss fight, where you have an automatic Excess field (the perfect scenario for this item) and all it did was to enable the use of the PSY Bullet attack IIRC, which is not that strong. Having a lot of AP by itself with no EX is useless.

"Event script referenced a "shigunichi" that does not exist."
Whatever the hell that means.
Appears after launching RPG_RT.exe.

It worked, although I got stuck with a Phase 1 meat shield for a while. He disappeared around Tournament Round 3.
I'm at the Slums now and just got my ass handed to me by a trio of thugs. Why is it so that not once have I beat any boss on my first try? >_<
I don't like how few coins you get after each fight, I have to spend all that I acquire on Stimulants to heal my party and have nothing left to buy equipment and combat items. This sucks.
