I've got a Job for you! - Let's Play Final Fantasy V!

It was a long and grueling climb, but we finally made it to the top!



*Hiryu gives a pitiful cry*
Krile: Is this the wind drake that saved you?
*Hiryu spreads his wings and cries out*
*Hiryu takes off and jumps off the tower!*

This should be good.



Krile: He says he wants to help you...
*Hiryu descends and Lenna steps forward*
Lenna: Hiryu!!!



Down the dragon goes!



And he turns red as he falls! With one last pitiful Syldra-like moan, Hiryu goes splat! Well that was morbid.



♪♪ Nostalgia ~ Sorrows of Parting ♪♪

Hiryu knew he didn't have much longer to live...
Lenna: That means... In the ancient forest, when he saved me-
Krile: It seems he came to this tower so he could help you with the last of his power...
Lenna: Hiryu...



A flashback, now!?

*King Tycoon looks down*
King Tycoon: Dear, the doctor did his best... It seems the only thing that can cure her is a wind drake's tongue...
*Lenna looks down, then runs off*
King Tycoon: Lenna! Where are you going with that knife!? ...Certainly you don't mean to-
*Lenna runs out the door!*
King Tycoon: Stop!
*Jenica steps down*
Jenica: Sire, I'll go.
*Jenica follows*



The queen mother has always cared deeply for Hiryu. Will you still cut out his tongue? Yes / No

Now the obvious choice here is No, and which you pick has no real impact, so I'm gonna pick Yes.



Bitch-smacked!

King Tycoon: You fool!
*Lenna gets up and hangs her head*
Lenna: *sob* Mother...

Totally worth it.



Suddenly a summon orb appears in the present!

*The orb floats into Lenna*
The wind drake Hiryu became a phoenix! The phoenix entrusted its power and its soul to Lenna.
Received the summoned monster Phoenix!
*Lenna looks down*
Lenna: Hiryu... ... Thank you...

Win! Alright, now for the trip back.



But first, a little !Blue magic learnin'.

Roulette (1 MP) - Kills a random target out of all available targets.



Time to take the Teleport Express out of the dungeon!



Next stop (at last), Bal Castle! And... hey, is that Jachole Cave? And Bal Castle is... just about where that pointless cave from before was, actually. Hmm... This calls for SCIENCE!

♪♪ Slumber of Ancient Earth ♪♪

Up the wall we go...



♪♪ Fate in Haze ♪♪

Success! We're in the blocked-off section!



There are statues still, of course. Oddly enough, we aren't going to stop to grind this time, either!



A pity I don't have time to fight the likes of you. I could spare you...say, one minute. Still wanna rumble? > Yes / No

Oh boy... Let's do this thing.



Dude, I can whup your ass in half that if I really want to.

Odin: It's your funeral...



♪♪ Battle 2 ♪♪

The lying bastard actually only gives you 30 seconds, give or take, as the timer goes down at double-speed!



We'll have to execute him with extreme prejudice.



Behold, the bane of perfectionists! It's a rare steal from Odin, and there are only 4 total in the game. This is one of 'em!



Oddly enough, this is one battle where long-ass animations like Bahamut are a liability! Better to just duke it out.



Odin's a bit of an asshole, really.



Hastega is a good idea, of course.



So yeah, after a lot of frustration, I realized that Odin isn't immune to Break !Spellblade...

♪♪ Fanfare 1 ♪♪

Triumphant! So, that's where we'll be stopping for this update. Next time we'll finally start tackling some of those tablet repositories, starting with the wind one. Mostly because that's the only one we can reasonably access at this point. Suggest classes as you see fit, and we'll tackle the wind shrine's big brother next time! Oh yes, and since we'll definitely have a second tablet to work with midway through the next update, feel free to suggest 3 more sealed weapons to break free too.

Next time: The Solitary Island Shrine!

The Phantom Villagers (or Gypsies) agree.

Weren't you paying attention to the other Final Fantasy LP you're participating in?

It's such a stupid solution, I didn't expect it to actually work. I really need to learn to stop assuming that FF games don't have stupid solutions for otherwise hard bosses.

Faris - It was a tossup between her and Lenna but the summons in this update made me want a Master Summoner! (Also she's a tiny bit closer)

Lenna: Goal = White Mage Mastery! It's a little closer than Black Mage and we've got that sweet staff to play with. :3

Bartz: So much work learning the piano should be rewarded with Bard Mastery! And then reward yourself with Samurai for being a good sport.

Krile: I don't wanna stick you with all squishies so let's say Knight. Though I do want to top off Ranger and White Mage before the end...

As for weaponry: the rod, the harp, and the dagger.

I know job mastery boosts Freelancer/Mime stats a bit but I'm not clear how much. You don't have to answer now if that topic is planned for a later update but I'm quite interested in knowing.

How it works is pretty simple. Every job affects a character's stats in different ways. Once a job is mastered though, the Freelancer/Mime gain that job's highest stat.

However, these boosts do not stack. The game will only give you the highest possible boost, so if you were just after stats the only jobs you should master are Knight (highest strength boost), Thief (highest speed boost), and Oracle (highest magic boost). The only point of mastering other jobs is to get the !Commands and the innate abilities.

I'm pretty sure that Monk actually has the highest strength AND stamina boosts. Thief also gives you the nice-to-have inherent abilities of spotting hidden passages and the ability to sprint super fast.

Other jobs you might consider mastering for inherent abilities, depending on the builds you're going for, are:

Ninja (dual wielding)
Samurai (Shirahdori - 25% chance of evading any physical attack)
one Geomancer (avoid damage from lava floors, avoid pitfalls)
Chemist (double item effectiveness)
one Blue Mage (Learning)

Sadly, mastering Dancer does *not* allow Mimes to equip Ribbons inherently, they'd need to set "Equip Ribbon" as an ability first. I also believe that Two-Handed is *not* an inherent ability, so unless you want some of your team to have Cover, there's little point in mastering Knight.

The best spot for easy ABP/Exp/GP grinding is in the Undersea Trench. All enemies there are classified as Undead (and give from 4-6 ABP per battle), so the bard song Requiem hits HARD. you can train up everyone as Bards then set !Sing to the jobs you're trying to master and run back and forth, just singing Requiem the whole time. It's totally mindless so you can totally grind while reading a book, surfing the web, or watching TV. Requiem's effectiveness is tied to your Magic stats, so don't try and make everyone Monks at the same time or you'll get hit too much.

As for the Phoenix tower - Romeo's Ballad is often surprisingly effective. the various lady enemies that you fight in there are all susceptible to it! (they have really good and expensive items to Steal, so equip one of your teammates with the Thief Knife - you'll be swimming in Reflect rings and Rainbow dresses in no time.)

That is highly disappointing. I was thinking Bartz would end up with extreme physical attack capabilities from those mastered fighty jobs but instead it's redundant? Lame!

If you want to deal absurdly high damage, you just need some really good equipment and a high level (most of FFV's damage formula are more affected by your level than your stats).

Seriously though, it's easy as hell to hit the damage cap in this game. Having 99 Strength would be pointless.

Speaking of Freelancers, here's what our merry team looks like completely unadorned.



Hot. As you can see, our team is well-equipped to cause some ruckus in general. The only real weak point here is Bartz' Magic stat, since he's spent about 5 minutes in any given magic-oriented class.

You should probably get Bartz to master Monk. He needs to reassert his superiority in that domain.

Whoa, Lenna's quite the badass! I wish she were closer to Thief mastery to raise Agility as well but that would take a lot of time for a mere +3.

I would support Bartz jumping into Monk for super high strength but I doubt he'd master it before endgame (honestly I've never gotten to world 3 and have no clue how much more is left).

When do you gain access to the classes added to this version? I know one isn't until after you've beaten the game but what about the rest?

There'll be a cutscene alerting the player. And I think Sky Render left the Phoenix Tower pots alone, so that's like 500 ABP there.

Besides, there's one point in the final dungeon that is literally made for ABP grinding.

Yeah, you guys picked the rightest classes for Lenna to focus on as it turns out.

Technically I could tackle the Interdimensional Rift at any time. But since I intend to get as much done first before that, we have at least 2 updates to go before then. More likely 3. Go ahead and suggest classes to aim for mastery in, even if it seems like a long shot; we've got access to much better AP factories now, and even just traversing dungeons is getting so much ABP that statue grinding is proving unnecessary.

We'll get access to 3 of the added classes as soon as we've unsealed all 12 weapons. So in about 2 to 3 updates, when it's time to tackle the Interdimensional Rift. The last of the added classes won't be available for some time, however.

664 JP seems like a real pain, but Red Mage mastery for Krile might be worth it?

Potentially. !Dualcast works for any of the standard spell sets, including !Time and !Summon. However, effective equipment management and the right equipment tends to mitigate the need for that. Though the old Spell/Quick Spell/Spell Spell/Spell trick (made infamous in FF6) is pretty nifty. (How it works, for the uninitiated, is that you !Dualcast two !Time spells, the second being Quick, and then can !Dualcast two more spells for each of the free turns Quick gives you).

On the other hand, that just burns through MP like crazy and is basically just a magic version of Dual Wield Rapid Fire.

Yeah, it's not as effective in FF5 as in FF6. Since the best you can do is halve MP costs (as opposed to FF6's awesome Three Stars accessory that drops all MP costs to 1), at best you can double your casting time with that trick instead of extending it almost indefinitely.

Helps to close that gap with classes with high strength too.

Figure you have 60 str(which is pretty darned high). At level 40, if you ignore rounding, you only need 16 agility to break even (and every class has at least 16 agility).

17/16 * 150 * ((60*40)/128 + 2) = 128.5 ((60*40)/128 + (x*40)/128 + 2)

x ~= 16

Note this doesn't hold for the snes version, since there was a bug with agility damage in weapons. The real downside is the flee issue. Though the flee can be useful at times. I've used it to run from Landcrawlers.

This math also assumes a 0 defense target, as the defense goes up, the Brave Blade does better. However, if you figure in flare sword, enemy defense is negligible.

Edit:fixed some math

Part XIX - Stuck in Solitary Confinement

The party took a huge detour last time and forgot what they were supposed to be doing. They got a ton of new summons, some nifty new equipment, and met some new people too. Now they've finally remembered what they're up to and are off to fulfill their destinies once more.



After some obligatory class changes, naturally. Bartz, sick of being criticized for his (lack of) musical talent, has decided to become a world-class bard. Lenna is digging the idea of finishing up the White Mage class, Krile is back in the Knight duds, and Faris is gonna do her damnedest to master Summoner.

(Today's update is in Light Blue, just 'cause. We're running out of colors fast here...)



♪♪ Castle of Dawn ♪♪

For no real reason, the party decides to nab Krile's wind drake.



♪♪ Harvest ♪♪

Next stop: Quelb and talking time!

Walking Around
Werewolf: Lord Kelger... A braver warrior has never lived...
Werewolf: What!? Exdeath has returned? {Yeah, this guy's a bit slow on the uptake...}
Werewolf: Tsuze was my younger brother. He traveled to the other world to protect its fire crystal, but never returned...
Werewolf: Something is dreadfully wrong in the world... If only Lord Kelger still lived.

In Kelger's House
Werewolf: A moment of silence... Now all four Dawn Warriors have fallen.

At the Inn
Werewolf: A thousand pardons...we are all out. {No more free healing, boo!}

Nothing else at all is new in Quelb. How disappointing. So, on to the next!



♪♪ Harvest ♪♪

Carwen, of course!

Gone Walkabout
Old Man: Now that the crystal's gone, what's gonna happen to us?
Woman: It's true, I tell you! I saw this huge drake or dragon or something flying to the North Mountain on big, leathery wings! {And we summarily kicked his butt, too.}
Woman: Do you think I'm pretty?
> Yes / * The woman transforms into Bartz!?* You saw me as a woman, did you not? For I am a master of impersonation! That is what they say, and yet... ...I must find a way to become even more skilled! *Bartz-Clone runs off* {That was weird. I wonder what that was about?}
> No / The Kingdom of Walse is south of here, beyond the sea. They use a machine to amplify the power of the water crystal. {Non-sequitur much?}
Merchant: Some tower appeared in the desert. It's one of those things that makes you go "hmm".
Man: Haven't seen any fish in forever... Guess we're up skid "roe."
Merchant: The wind and the ocean are done for! Now our ships are as worthless as chocolate teapots, and not even as tasty.

In the Pub
Merchant: A wind drake AND super-rare dragon grass? If you could get your hands on those, you'd be rolling in gil!
Man: Some weirdo doing impressions used to hang around here... He said he was going to the Tower of Walse, but that sank... Dunno what happened to him. {That must be who that mimick from before was! How did he get to the Tower of Walse?}
Bartender: Did you hear? The Tower of Walse fell into the sea. I bet if you had a submarine you could check out the damage. {Ah. So the mimic has a submarine. Weird.}
Merchant: Huh... The wife has been speakin' crazy talk, says she saw this huge dragon or somethin'. {Ahh, role reversals are fun.}

Next on our list of towns is...



♪♪ Tenderness in the Air ♪♪

Regole!

That sounds like useful!



♪♪ Fanfare 1 ♪♪

Awesome!

Take good care of my ribbon, y'hear?

Will do, lassie. Next stop is... Huh. Are we out of towns already?



I guess it's time to move on, then.



♪♪ Sealed Away ♪♪

The entrance is guarded, as before, by Gargoyles.



Poor unfortunate Gargoyles.



And once more, a flaming page lets us inside!

Solitary Island Shrine
Enemies: Executor, Oiseaurare, Shadow Dancer, Numb Blade, Tot Aevis



That looks familiar...



It auto-sucks Bartz into it and spits him out here! This clearly is a switch puzzle.

Lenna, in a bout of inspiration, swapped briefly to Blue Mage and got two (yes, TWO!) new skills for it!

Level 3 Flare (11 MP) - Casts Flare on all enemies with a level that's a multiple of 3.
Level 4 Graviga (9 MP) - Casts Graviga on all enemies with a level that's a multiple of 4.

And with that, we have only two !Blue skills to go!



Behind switch #1 is treasure.



Behind switch #1 + 2 is more treasure.



Behind switch #2 is a trap chest!



♪♪ Battle 2 ♪♪

You can encounter either Covert or Pantera in this chest. They're both one-time-only fights from here, and neither shows up in the bestiary either.



They have crap steals, and are basically just cannon fodder in spite of the boss music.



This is what happens when you summon Odin during a fight where all enemies are flagged as immune to his regular attack, incidentally.



A boss with a gimmick? In FF5!? Never!



♪♪ Victory Fanfare ♪♪

Amusingly, he died right after that.

Our reward is a new Ninja weapon. How... not useful. Seriously, we've got the arsenal of the gods now, a Rising Sun isn't gonna cut it.



Surprisingly, there's a save point early in this dungeon.



Really getting sick of trapped chests, I am...



Oh you asscracks.



Victory nets us a lovely new Protect Ring. That's 3!



This is a whip that hits magical beasts for extra damage. There are a lot of magical beast enemies, so it's actually pretty useful.



Our old friends the pit-trapped chests return...



This is pratically a boss fight unto itself! Tot Aevises are way stronger than anything else in this area.



Finally we reach the dungeon's far more appropriately placed second save point!



♪♪ The Sealed Tome ♪♪

We've reached the last room! And there's still encounters and chests in spite of the music suggesting there shouldn't be!



And there's Odin's regular move. Yep, another !Win button.



It took me 3 goddamn Tot Aevises to get this far. You people had better be thankful.

But to think, it's only a group of little girls! Ha ha ha! Sorry, ladies...I will send you all to your graves!

He talks trash, but can he stand up to my fury?

♪♪ Battle 2 ♪♪

His signature move is this, which causes Paralysis and Sap. It's one of our last remaining missing !Blue skills, and he just HAD to target someone without Learning on!



...And then he immediately targeted someone who does have it. Nice!



The gimmick here is that you need to hit the "right" one. And unlike Sandworm and his Holes, a.) you can't be sure which one is real and b.) you will get your butt kicked if you use multi-target attacks.



Fortunately, he doesn't change position until you hit him. So if you guess wrong 3 times in a row, you'll find him on the fourth time via process of elimination.



Finally we defeat Wendigo.



The other forms all get one last turn where they do nothing and die. It's an easy fight, just annoying.



♪♪ Victory Fanfare ♪♪

Oh yes, let's go over our new skill...

Mind Blast (6 MP) - Causes Paralyze and Sap status to the target.



♪♪ Fanfare 1 ♪♪

Two down, two to go!



The screen centers on our next destination conveniently enough.



Now you see the barrier...



...And now you don't!

The gate to Fork Tower, resting place of the strongest white and black magic spells, has opened!



The twin houses of the strongest of magics, Fork Tower... if the two houses are not traversed and spells removed as one, both shall be destroyed, and the tower rent asunder...'
*Krile walks around and shoves the tablet right into Bartz*

Alright, Teleport Express time! Then we get new legendary weapons and tackle Fork Tower!



Having mastered the Bard class, Bartz is now all about punchin' it up! He also stuck on !Rapid Fire for that most satisfying of feelings, punching your enemy into paste repeatedly.

♪♪ Fanfare 1 ♪♪ x3

The Magus Rod, Apollo's Harp, and Assassin's Dagger join our arsenal!



♪♪ Exdeath's Castle ♪♪

Don't worry, we're a-comin', Cid!

Fork Tower
Enemies: Tiny Mage, Chrono Controller, Flaremancer, Dueling Knight, Iron Muscles, Berserker



*Bartz nods*
Bartz: Guess we'd better split up, then...
*Everyone nods*
Split the party into two groups. Which side will Bartz go?

An important question. Fortunately, our party is ideally situated for this split!



Bartz and Krile are both in pure physical classes, while Lenna and Faris are both pure mages. Obvious, right?



We start on the Mage side. Up we go!



This is what happens if you use physical attacks on this tower. So yeah, we won't be using physical attacks.



Once we reach the top (it's a short climb), it's Bartz and Krile's turn!

Using magic causes enemies on this side to go berserk and hit the crap out of you, as well as put a death sentence on the character who used it.



♪♪ The Sealed Tome ♪♪

At the top, Bartz and Krile prepare to take Holy...



...While Faris and Lenna prepare to get Flare.



♪♪ Battle 2 ♪♪

This results in a boss fight, naturally. But we're prepared.



We hit like trucks.



Hell, Bartz even nabbed a nice item from !Mugging Minotaur.



I think it's time you tasted its might!

Bring it, bull-boy!



Wow. Epic fail.

♪♪ Victory Fanfare ♪♪



♪♪ Fanfare 1 ♪♪

Hoorj! One down, one to go!



That would be bad, yes. So let's do that.

...No, not that.



♪♪ Battle 2 ♪♪

The gimmick in this fight is simple: anything not magic makes Omniscient reset the battle with Return. (If you're wondering, no, you don't have access to Holy in this fight even though technically you just got it.)



He only uses magic. And he's not immune to Silence.



This is just embarrassing, quite frankly.



There's something horribly meta about him trying to Silence us while Silenced.



Can never be too safe...



His Silence wears off far too fast. Fortunately, our Reflect does not.



Before long the tricky bastard casts Reflect on himself, necessitating self-assault to hit him. Amusingly, he cast Cure and Regen on himself while in Reflect status.

He literally killed himself: cast Thundaga on Lenna, bounced it onto himself, cast Flare as his last-ditch attack on her, and reflected THAT onto himself too. Once again, epic fail.

Nice, we have undersea access again! I wonder if the airship's wheel actually has a GBA controller on it. That'd be funny.
