Does PURGE use MP or WP? Hope to read furthermore in the future

PURGE doesn't cost anything to cast.

...Ok, that's not entirely true, it technically costs you money, since that is what is used to repair broken or discarded forms.

Is money limited? Or can we farm? I absolutely would second the ability to farm if it is not implemented for those that are.... bad at resource management or who simply wanna look "badass" most of the time. Though I guess ressource management would be interesting.... well not seen enough to judge something like that....

Also is purge an ability you can only use like once a battle? Or can it be used as often as you want? (Well I guess up to thrice a battle at most) If it is than it would be a interesting mechanic. Depending on how purge works (Does it end the round? Or is it an instant transformation and you are still taking damage? Do TP carry over or are they even used? Stuff like that) it could be used to.... mitigate or soften a blow enough that a strong comeback is possible. (Taking the damage to build up more TP (or to preserve TP you had) to use a fatal attack with the purge buff stuff like that basically....)

.... sees this.... starts drolling.... looks at the text instead of the pictures.... drolling intensifies....... shout out: AWESOME!

Must have this... simply must have this... I gotta say Wheelman said exactly what I was thinking.... damn I hope this comes to steam or something like that soon but I doubt it will.... be honest you plot to kill us with the wait! Hmph what a vile and evil plan.... to bad it might even suceed. Well anyways I am looking forward to the finished product no matter how long I will have to wait...

Also the pictures look incredible. Especially the archdevil.

Hm changing forms midcombat sounds interesting.... I assume it alters your skillset and HP/MP as well? If yes that would make things interesting and add an interesting strategy element.

Also I did a quick google search for something like base parameter control and adjusting limits and came to yanfly's page
http://yanfly.moe/yep/ (his terms of use say free for both commercial and not commercial games but you can read them yourself =P)
Just brows his plugins they may be helpful if you want to make a boss with more than 9999 HP and have more control over stat growth. (I mean come on what endboss has less than..... alright I could name a few but thats besides the point... *cough*)

Anyways i am off for now... yet again good luck.

This sounds interesting.... subscribed.

I do hope that we will actually have more HP than the enemy.... beeing a annoying damage sponge with mean attacks is what makes a nice boss.... No good boss fight under 15minutes.... nah just kidding about the last part but I still have hope for that... =P
Anyways I hope you get enemies to use a sort of strategy....(like a change of attacks if they use a buff on themselves, use a buff/heal after x turns, or maybe even a different attack pattern based on the endboss level.... MV is rather free with its costumisation I am pretty sure you can also make a trigger if a certain switch is on or off.... heck there are a lot of options) because if the gameplay is the same as playing as a hero it would be boring and kinda defeat the point of beeing the last boss. In most cases Umbral Souls was still awesome. If you cant find a stat limit break script maybe work with smaller numbers and costumize the damage calculation instead of using the pre done ones. Maybe even find ways to block certain skills until you reach a certain HP point or MP point (like mana apsorption if mana hits 50%) in the worst case you could add stats that grant skills that you add after X health is lost in a fight. Maybe there are even plugins for that...

Well I do wish you luck with your endeavor. Balancing a game playing as the boss will be a pain in the butt.

But I think the idea of having different forms is nice... will I be able to switch them during combat as well? That would make for an interesting mechanic.

Now you are throwing a big bone there to me.... assuming that is the case we first have to "divine" or otherwise know what type of dragon it is. The western ones? The eastern ones? Powerwise the eastern ones in the story are far, far more powerful than your average mortal.... shaking the skies and earth with their appearance alone and stuff like that... western ones though are much more tame but often depicted as way more greedy (which makes me think its a western one) and weaker in comparison. They dont shake the earth and split the heavens and all that nonsense they at most use magic, are intelligent, throw around stone melting breaths (or depending on the type making it freeze and shatter.... stuff like that) and are often after gold (in many cases not nearly in all). Than there are all the variants oh boy.... lets not get into that or we will be here for a long, long time. Or it may be a hoax and what they have is simply someone strong imitating a dragon... or someone weak with strong Illusion skills. oh boy you are getting me thinking and I cant afford to get sidetracked so much you evil, evil bugbear.... xD

Anyways assuming its a greedy western one (or a human illusionist or something like that) that would explain why the orc and humans united. The orcs did not have the gold to appease the dragon while humans do (which explains why they would bring huge amounts of their currency) and humans like always want to control something that is beyond them, alas the dragon, and in an attempt to control the dragon agreed to the marriage. But things didnt go as well as they hoped. Even after paying most of their currency to the dragon there were no signs of it just taking the money and obeying oh no, it grew even greedier! A catastrophe for the folks living in the lands of the dragon. It only allowed people to live there if they pay them a certain amount of gold each year which is why humans want to do business with pretty much everyone in the area or to rob them (See how humans may want to duel a bugbear? For their gold! And if you win its free looting!). Everywhere fights broke out as humans had no way back and as they were on the loosing end they decided to just say "fuck it" if we gotta go we go with a bang and did a huge ritual cursing the leaders of the orcs, bugbears, etc with the crystal whatever curse. (I assume it does forbid something mundane and if broken costs the cursed ones live) The bugbear king though was too powerful to entirely succumb to it and instead turned into a crystalized heart that turns every human that touches it into something akin to him, that has the power than to break the curse at a certain cost.

And so the game begins.... honestly I like my previous idea better and I am sure I could come up with something better, but hey I did my best for the five minutes I gave myself.

Anyways Sounds interesting bugbear. No Shops entirely is a bad idea. I like the idea of merchant battles but there must be some incentive for merchants (who are normally not fighters) to do something like that. Maybe each shop has a designated bodyguard used to guard the shop and they are usually pretty strong so the merchant allows fights for a fee for each attempt giving up to 30% price reduction if the battle is won. Maybe its a tradition they took from the orcs? Orcs sound like they would do something like that...
