Storyline

Maybe we should get on MSN. By the way, the computer's name is Arkon (in the secret room). I also tried out the idea of one NPC in multiple places. Jack Sparrow is now in the Secret Room as well as the fishing village. It works great. Checkout Jack Sparrow, in the Secret Room. I figured out a way to not worry about having a map in a book. Because I did not want to pre plan where the pieces of the weapon were located. Makes things too easy for the players. I think this way works better.
 
I lowered the MP cost of Regen. After leveling up to level 8, the MP cost would come to a whopping 225 MP. Starting at MP 50 to MP 225 is a lot. I know it increases turns per level. But that is steep. Close to Curaga. Anywho, I have the MP starting at 40 adding 15 per level. The cost now comes to 145. Also, it ends up with a miss percentage of 19 percent. Starting from 32 percent. I left that. The rest was OK.

Is this spell going in the Moogle Merchant?

Hmm, I just checked the max for Curaga, which was 2600. But Curaga starts with 200 MP and goes down 20 per level up. It only levels up 6 levels. I think I am going to leave it. Regen that is.

Should Regen be allowed to be used by both classes? Warriors still have an advantage over mages and I think we should make a list of all Mage Only/Warrior Only spells that we will make available as soon as we make the Class Areas.
 
I came up with a brainstorm or brainfart last night. A pet can only go to MAX stats, 300 for STR, DEF, MAG, MAG DEF, SPD, DEX, 3000 for MP and 9999 for HP. But the main character can get higher with weapon's modifiers. Also, the MAG will have higher skill levels for Arcane. While the Warrior will higher skill levels for Combat. Also, Warriors can carry heavier weapons.

I think maybe Red Fox had the right idea. No need to make a boss. Just charge a certain amount for access. We can make a condition that once people made their choice, to the certain store, they cannot access the other location. A condition is made that if they were at the one location, they cannot access the other. This way, people can only shop at one store.

So as I stated above, pets cannot build their MAG or STR above the MAX. But with weapons, characters can. So the main character can be stronger.

I do not think I want to make this division of stores a major thing. Maybe the NPC can be put in the Secret Room. With an intro message "Where are your loyalties?". A character can only make this decision once. So in the first added convo, the NPC could say "Choose wisely".

Maybe Osmose and Regen should be a Mage only spell. But Warriors should have a way to combat Osmose. So Warriors should have some Null spells. I am not sure it is fair to limit Regen. It is basically like healing light on GZE and IPB Gaming.

The only thing about weapons is that they can be sold in Trade. Spells cannot. So in a way the Mage has the advantage. Even if they cannot carry much weight. Also pets can get more hit power with special attack types. Like what Tonberry has.

The Imperial Guard was left in the Admin Island. I already added the text so the only thing the NPC needs is the Trigger condition "User has 500 battles" and to give the bonus sword.

Of course add a Take the sword trigger at the beginning of the convo to avoid anyone getting more than one.
 
The Warrior only and Mage only stores will only sell spells and attack types. Since these things cannot be sold in trade. This should balance things.

Oh, and Blizzara, Fira and Lantern have been modified per an idea of Red Fox.

Fira and Lantern take -5 from DEF and DEX from opponent
Blizzara will take -5 from SPD and EVA

This gives a difference to the spells and does a bit of what fire damage and ice damage would do.

Added Cascara. It adds MAG and MAG DEF. Is user only.
Added Protect. It adds DEF It is also user only.

Both are in Moogle Market.

The next project is to setup the next area, which is in the past. I will finish Arkon when the area is finished. Arkon is going to be a very annoying computer. As my little display shows. He will have the personality of his creator, Dr Zeous. Which I will give more info on that later.

I guess I have to setup the NPC that directs characters to the two different stores. Since we can do stat requiremnt trigger conditions, this should workout fine.

I guess I will add boss Pestilence somewhere in the area. The first orb will be dropped.

It would be right after that. Since the pieces of the weapon have already been spread. Since this is Pestilence time, it could be the beginning of the dark times, the civil war. Hmm, maybe we should discuss this on MSN. But not tonight. I am going to bed soon. At least I think I am.

Can we discuss this tomorrow?

Well, it looks like we need to rebuild the game. Fortunately is just a matter of putting the places back. Everything else seems to be OK.

We will get the ideas for the next location next week, I guess. Or when we get the fixing of the game done.
 
Julius, I repaired and placed your NPC, Old Library Door, in the Library. All that needs to be done is Tiel's Caverns, Hall of Mages, Arden Forest and the Village. Also I did not add text to the Library, the Black Pearls or the Secret Room.
 
Don't forget about adding the Hall of Mages. I left them for you since you knew the pictures and text. I may help with adding the monsters. Since I had changed stuff there.
 
Please don't make me part of Terror Triplet. I'd rather be a potion. xD
