UPRC'S PROFILE

Varn,

I've been not playing past few days because I want to do optional content before beating the game, and I've been stuck at the final save point unable to backtrack. When I saw the patch notes for 1.05 that said it fixed the bug causing a point of no return, I was so happy and downloaded it ready to go do some optional end-game stuff. Unfortunately, it's still bugged....

That's strange, it worked for me when I walked through the maps. I'll upload a quick fix.

EDIT: Offending map has been fixed. http://www.walagata.com/w/uprc/Map605.rvdata2

I'll edit the downloads today to include that fix.

I addressed the arena issue. The hummingway issue will be a quick fix. You could fix it yourself in-game by playing a card game anywhere else in the meantime. I'll have it fixed in the next update. Anyway, because I have a very busy weekend coming up, I cobbled this together quickly:

Version 1.04
▪ Corrected element of Blackflight (was set to nothing, should've been gravity).
▪ Fixed a teleport error in Horseman's Rest.
▪ Fixed a teleport error in the Berona Research Facility.
▪ Fixed a teleport error in the Eldritch Cave.
▪ Fixed an error that prevented some of the Hunters Guild's marks from showing up when intended (they were showing up, but required the player to reach a certain point in the game first).
▪ Fixed an eventing issue in the Pantheon of Rebirth that could cause a sequence to repeat.
▪ Fixed elemental settings of Shiva's Ice 3 spells.
▪ Fixed events in the arena's inn and item shop that allowed the actual arena battles to continue when entering them.
▪ Hummingway in the Necropolis referenced an opponent ID that did not exist. Corrected this.
▪ Moved a mu in Vos that could trap the player in a corner without any means of escape.
▪ Removed damage from death spell. I had my own reasons for having it inflict damage, but I figure that the spell will be more well received without the ability to inflict damage.
▪ Removed some obsolete items from the pawn shop in Vilaheim.
▪ Ribbons did not resist stop. Corrected this error.
▪ Titan card was unobtainable. Added it to a deck in the Berona City card tournament.
▪ White Cape did not protect against silence. Oops.

Google Drive download updated. Mediafire download pending.

Another ... bug? ... though. I also found

Show

Lysha

- who told Silas she'd meet him back on the airship. In a word, she didn't; I can't seem to find her again?
Finally, what is potentially a major bug: If you enter the basement of the Berona Research Facility on the 3rd world map - you exit again on the first world map. With no way to return.

She should be right there standing at the railings as you enter the airship. Not sure what might be up if you don't see her there, as the event that adds her had been tested and works fine. I'll get right on the issue with the Berona Research Facility though.

I found a minor mistake on Dual Fire 3, it only consume 3 MP to cast while the other Dual elemental spell needs 37 MP.

Thanks, fixed. Keyboard must've been acting up when I was entering the MP cost. They actually cost 50 though, you probably have something equipped that reduces MP costs.

The stairs missing in Horseman's Rest should lead to a Hummingway's room..

The sprint shoes, flan oil and irdiem ore in Alexandria can be bought at the pawn shop and resold for like 30k profit if you buy 99 of each and then go sell them to the item shop. In other towns usually topaz is exploitable.. you can also buy two types of DNA in Vilaheim's pawn shop.

There is a mu in the Vos materia shop who can trap you against the pots forever.. which would really suck if it happened to someone who didn't save in awhile.

I don't think the titan card is available in any decks.

All fixed!

I managed to find the Dark Matter probably as you were posting. And what to do with it. Fun! I guess what you find at Mohamdal Junction was supposed to be the pyramid? No dice here; maybe only on the first map? I did find out that the blacksmith would upgrade my atma weapon though; and that he'd come to the garrison. The only thing I found near Vilaheim was Edric's weapon; I'm guessing that's what you meant? And I'm still looking for Kappa - would he be the friend you meant?

Mohadmal Junction is more or less irrelevant unless you return with Silas and Kappa under certain conditions.

Was the Twin Raven summon supposed to be that devastating? I dropped 64K damaged on a boss

No, I somehow failed to set their element to gravity. It's already been addressed since someone else pointed it out. I fixed this a day or two ago and it will be dealing the correct damage in the next update.

Sapphire starts out awful, becomes kinda decent, and then drops off a cliff in terms of usefulness.

I wouldn't quite say that. Her ninja scrolls scale with her level and end up very potent against elemental creatures later in. Solar Storm also scales with her level, and should be doing pretty good damage. She's also the second fastest character in the game, so she's able to act very often. Her final non-unique weapons that she obtains lag behind the others a bit, but that won't matter if you find Masamune for her.

Encountered 2 probably bugs:

- As far as I can tell, *NOTHING* is immune to Zephyr's Blackflight summon - every boss I encountered tonight was fully susceptible to its Demi. I hit a certain climactic boss for 125,000! This is almost surely a bug, right?

It looks like I forgot to set it to the gravity element. So yeah, it shouldn't work on most bosses.

After downloading 1.03, I was able to accepted hunt marks. Finally - the first 5 or so died in a few hits, and it wasn't until #9 that there was a serious challenge. But when I accepted #10, Anima, I was told he was "somewhere near Neirbrook" - he's not. No tile visible; and I walked over every tile that could conceivably be considered nearby. Nothing. A bug? Not unlocked til the story progresses? I reverted to the save before I accepted mark#10.

There's a reason for that, and I realized why it's happening as I read this. No bug, you can continue as normal even if you've accepted that mark. I'll have this fixed for later but, trust me, Anima will show up in that spot for you eventually. I can't really explain why Anima isn't there for story reasons, but hold tight.

A question: After putzing around through the world for awhile, I found that I could really use some Dark Matter. Um ... anyone know where it is? Or can you at least let me know by what point in the game I should have it? I found the other two items almost by accident - and I'm worried I missed the Matter somewhere. Especially since it was listed second, before the Candle.

Neither of those are missable, don't worry. I'd have to take a peek to see where the dark matter is again if you're completely stumped on it.

Quick question: What is your motive behind naming the spells off of numbers versus the more recent renditions (-a, -aga, etc)? I always found the latter a lot less confusing/cluttered, and I'm guessing this is mere preference but just curious.

It's what I grew up with (keep in mind that I've been playing since the original Final Fantasy), it's just what I personally prefer and it always feels more old school to me.

I'm up to Lenadia. I'd like to echo a few others and say the game has been cakewalk so far, but kudos to you for including the Moogle Charm and being able to disable random encounters whenever you want. Still, the bosses are really easy because it seems they act every 2-3 turns I get. Often times I pepper them with all kinds of attacks, they are able to get one attack in, then their next attack hits the entire group, then they die before getting another turn in. I have a feeling you meant for bosses like Rudra and Fenrir to be a lot tougher than they really were. That being said, I do remember having trouble with Shiva when I played the version a few years ago, so maybe this whole thing will remedy itself.

Something changed somewhere, I'm not sure where or what happened, but people even struggled with bosses like Fenrir in the old releases of the game before it was finished. I can only assume that it's from equipped items, I don't know. I've been going through and increasing the speed of many bosses though. I don't think this is too evident in the current download yet though (except with the first four or five bosses).

EDIT: In Lenadia Castle, King Edward's sprite changes to Locke when speaking to him. It remains that way until you exit the room and come back at which point it turns back to his original sprite.

Zero clue what is happening there, but I'll definitely check it out.
