pardon me, but does anyone know what song is playing when rafa, malak, and ramza are all talking about the corpses and alma and stuff? im sorry i just really wanna know...
No Olan's surname shouldn't be Orlandu. Orlandu is his father-in-law, meaning he married Orlandu's daughter and the wife in those days took the name of their husband without question.
I completely OWNED Marquis out of pure luck. Marquis got close to Rafa and she chose not to be suicidal. My Ramza was a Ninja with Martial Arts. Since I had boosted a lot for the fight with wiegraf, all I did was go up to Marquis' side and double punched him. Beat this fight in one turn, before the girls could even move! XD
This was, by far, the easiest battle in the game for me. Because both Celia and Lede went after my Ramza, who was luckily equipped with Hamedo, I won before I even got a turn.
two heirs are fighting to rule the land but, the church is actually pulling the strings. the church wants the war to break the citizens trust so that they can save the day with the holy stones stating that they can resurrect the zodiac braves. what they really want is to rule the world with the power of demons and a figurehead ruler. on top of that Delita has his own agenda. along with that there's a mystery organization after the stones and Alma.
Velius responded to Weigraf's hatred and agony, and Velius gave him life to pursue that hatred for revenge...The stone Rafa had responded to her sadness, and granted her desire to bring her brother back to life...least thats what I think
Mr. Bailly I might have a theory of the stones. Maybe the stones themselves are not actually evil but some type of median. For example everyone thus far who had one was greedy and desired power so the stones gave them what they wanted. But Rafa didn't want that she was a good soul so the stone put her in contact with heaven to return her brother. Or maybe cause she is a heaven knight.
I wonder if you tried making Ramza as vulnerable as possible if that would help the chances that he would be targeted over Rafa. Maybe if he is weak enough that one of the assassins can kill him in a single shot (like they did in your video), then they will opt to take the kill, eating up one of their turns.
@king504babyboi I was Level 70. And Belias (I have the PSP version.) or Velius was still a bitch, but that was only because of the Demons.. and I don't like using special characters.
I can't stand those two assassins,its nearly impossible to do anything else in the battle with them there,I always try to steal Elmdore's equipment but to no avail -_-
It's only a theory but if you read between the lines later in the game or read the zodiac brave story they will do as the holder wishes So that means that if it's good intentions good will happen if it is bad intentions the demon comes to merge with the person who has bad intentions so at least we have the sam theory and btw Rafa and malak are not that bad they can be useful as other classes other than their base classes they have awesome stats and just generally kick ass
I'm guessing the reason they're on the rooftop is that Barinten was hiding there while Vormav and Wiegraf were on their little killing spree throughout the rest of his castle.
I think DBZ was out, but it was still in its early stages.
Rafa and Malak can be good party members, just not as their default classes. Rafa's high base Faith makes her perfect for mage classes while Malak's high base Brave makes him a good warrior type.
I finished this fight in one single round. Attacked one of the sisters from behind with my Ninja, and it was over. I really can't see what the big problem was...
@SilimsLetsPlays Its a matter of speed. If your units have an equal or less amount of speed than the assassins, its possible for them to kill Rafa before you even get a turn. It all depends on how much level grinding you do, and a big part of luck.
I'd say the whole stone thing depends on the users INTENTIONS (not the actual user)...
ondore (and other bad guys) only wanted to keep living to win their war, so the stone revived them and gave them power by transforming them... and a by-product of that is that it corrupts them and they no longer act like themselves
rafa doesn't want war. She isn't really pure of heart (was going to kill her adoptive father lol) but her intentions were good, so her brother revived without extra power
In the PSP version, instead of saying "whoever uses it will have to deal with the problem" Malak says that he does not believe the stones are evil inherit, but rather depends on the user.
To anwser why Malik was revived and not turned to the Dark Side, was because he was compelety misled by Barinten and he didn't thrist for power like the others before him.
@samisagamer Actually, they tend to target the 'weakest' target. HC's team is well built, but his average team member has a lot less HP than Rafa, which makes them really, really tempting targets for the AI.
I always figured Olan was calling Cid "father" out of respect. Considering I don't think he's his blood father. I guess I could be wrong about that though, it's been a while since I've played this myself.
(sorry for so many comments, I just have this much to say. ._.)
@Dante2056 :) It happens, the only reason I even remember that is because I was playing last week xD besides, it's a slight detail that's only alluded to a handful of times so it's easy to forget.
The Riovanes Rooftop battle, and one other battle, are tied for my least favorite story battles in the entire game. You got damn lucky the other Assassin didn't use Stop Bracelet, which is the instant death spell they have.
Also, this battle explains why Elmdore's age still showed up in his Brave Story profile after he supposedly "died" in battle: He wasn't really dead after all. Kind of a little hint there by the game.
Some evil queen and some talking animals are probably going to force you to watch bad movies, and your success will depend on your ability to trash them. Must practice for that moment.
My Dad calls my Mum's Mum, Mum and she calls him her son too, it's not strange to refer to your in-laws as just Mum and Dad, at least not in my family.
Ramza LOL, he's dead too. ( Sorry, I just couldn't help but think it was a little humorous to see the main character lying there, dead - good thing Ramza can just get up and dust himself off after dying. what a useful skill for a main character.)
@drunyon214 Yeah, pretty sexy how she flung and killed a fat guy with one friggin' hand. Female Assassins who are hot are, generally, not human. Since Elmdor is their boss, it's a pretty safe bet he isn't either...
Think of Celia and Lede as poison dart frogs - beautiful to look at, but incredibly deadly...
I can't believe so many people had trouble with this battle... it never gave me any problem. The assassins always seemed to try to kill my characters, not Rafa. But I guess that's because I was a higher level with more speed to get up there, or something. I always just wailed on Lede and she died fast, usually after insta-killing one of my characters with her 100% instant death ability.
For those who haven't played this game and were wondering why the assassin's were very deadly, well they have an instant kill attack that has 100% accuracy. It's got a one square radius (like a melee attack), but still. 100%. You don't fuck around with that.
@ChaosBahamut And they also have a much more accurate version of Steal Heart. (think that's got a 100% chance of hitting as well, although it has the same limitation Steal Heart does in that it only works on units of the opposite gender or monsters)
@kkkirlia Angela contributes VERY little to her own storyline, compared to the other characters. Hawk is far more versatile and able to greatly change the dynamic of the party, unlike Angela. Worry not, though. I do have a save state to show off the very few unique interactions between Angela & Duran.
I remember first watching DBZ (in New York) in 1998. And I know it had been on for at least several months (perhaps more than a year) by the time I started
@ZeryusAgain Olan is the adopted son of Cid, he says so when you meet him for the second time (episode 34 of this LP).
Although he says he is his father-in-law in this version, in the PSP version he says he was adopted as a child. So I assume it is just another case of poor translation (as is most of the dialogue in this game).
@epsleon The PS1 version's translation issues are mostly in Chapter 4 I believe, I'm sure we've seen quite a few derps here and there but Chapter 4 is just horrible.
I think I have better chance with the lotto than that rooftop battle. Just a long stream of Rafa heading straight into the assassins and dieing brutally.
HCBailly your theory is correct I think somewhere in the game they explain that the stones power is neither evil or good. It all depends on the heart of the beholder and his/her wish...as cheesy that may sound.
I believe that how a Zodiac Stone is used depends on the person. They have power, and whether it is used to become a Lucavi (represented by the stone's sign), or some other effect, is based on the user's... Intent. They grant the user's wish. Now, I do believe that the Lucavi actually have certain people they are 'linked' to (you'll see), but even if you don't become one, you're influenced by them if it's a selfish wish, like power, revenge, ect. And Rafa's wasn't.
Ya know, HCBaily, I pretty much agree with you on how good final fantasy games are. for example, I love ff tactics, 9, 4, and 6 but my bottom ones are 8 and 2. My question is why do you not like ff10, its one of my, if not the favorite of the series.
They kinda explain it in the PSP version, but its been awhile since ive played it. If I recall, you actually got it right, with the whole holy stone theory.
i heard that the Lucavi in the holy stone Rafa has is trying to redeem it's self so by resurrecting Malak and not turning him evil it felt somewhat redeemed
The Lucavi in this game are several of the Espers from FF XII. In the remake this is more apparent because several things were altered in it to connect it to the other Ivalice games. Exaples are Velius becomes Belias and Holy Stones renamed Auracite, the stone in which Espers' glyphs are contained.
Ramza- "you have two hot female bodyguards?!" Elmdor"yes and they are not only hot but ridicously dangerous!" Ramza-" tsk! i have but one special female in my team as of this moment (agrias) and for that you must die! HAVE AT THEE!"
Elmodor wasnt a bad guy in life though. That theory doesnt work HCBailley. What I was thinking was that it depends on the circumstances involved in death. Falling in battle during a war, or against Ramza in the cathedral are far different than dieing to save your sister's life. There wasnt much rage or anger, just the desire to protect her. That's what I think anyways.
In this particular battle, no character has priority on their attack chart, so they act as normal. I dont know WHY she cast stop bracelet on rafa instead of just killing her, but once she was stopped, the AI decided she wasnt a threat so went for ramza.
I am honestly surprised no one caught what the Grand Duke was talking about to Rafa. It is made all the more explicit in the PSP version to the point I was glad the Lucavi did him in.
Why do you always take a break at the end of a disc/chapter? You don't take breaks if the game only has 1 disc, like FFVI. And FFVI has way more episodes then FFT (so far).
@OnePieceFollower It seems like an appropriate time to take a day off. Especially early in the LP, I wasn't accustomed to making 15-20 minute episodes. You might say that's only 5 more minutes, but that gets multiplied by the testing, editing, reviewing, and processing that I have to do. It took me a little getting used to. It was also difficult for me to get together with my brother to record our side LP, so I sometimes wanted a day off from this to record a few episodes of that.
It must be hard to do my mom when your sitting around counting HCBailly episodes and taking note of every time he takes a break. Maybe you need to take a break from life.... permanently.
@Burialhound it IS hard when Im doing your mom, how did you know? :)
The breaks were just noticeable because there are so many in this LP. And I just named a random game with 1 disc/cartridge and went to his playlist to check how many episodes it has. As if I actually know how many episodes each of his playlists are... dumbass. I don't know what goes on in that little head of yours, but you've got problems (probably child abuse and rape)
And how are you gonna make me take a break 'permanently'?
How do you know how many breaks he takes from the playlists? you would have to sit there and write down every time he has taken a break in a LP. And I wont make you take a break, just a suggestion. So go and watch your shitty little anime shows, the big boys have to go to work.
@Burialhound I don't know how many breaks he takes. He only does it when a game has seperate discs and/or chapters. And I KNOW, for example, FF6 has no seperate chapters. I don't know why you makes such assumptions, but I guess you can't expect more from someone with a lower IQ then a monkey. I rather watch my anime shows then arguing with a dumbass. And you're a big boy? Does that mean you can use your daddy's tampons now? Enjoy your big-boy job (which is probably code for prostitution)
Because Rafa used the stone for another instead of for her own power or gain, it reacted in a way as to simply call back Malak's spirit. The Stones aren't necessarily evil or good, it just reacts to the holder.
DBZ's been around since the S/NES (1990's). So yes, DBZ has been around since 1992. I thought it was much newer than that as well, but DBZ's been around for a while. (watch some vids from DBZ online, they're really from the early 90s O.o)
@AshUltimega No, the slot for Ultima doesn't unlock until Chapter 4. You can tell when it's available if you have Squire mastered, because in chapter 4 it won't show the Mastered tag until you learn Ultima
I think that it's based on the person, but not that if the person has a good will then there is no demon. I think it's a matter of whether or not the person has the will to suppress the Lucavi. Or at least that's what I gathered from Malak and Ramza's dialogue after Malak's revival.
One last shot at redemption...Ha, good pun. Also, I agree with your thoughts on the stones, that is what I have always thought myself. great vid, looking forward to the next ones, enjoy your small break.
You know, I was reading something, somewhere, that gives a logical explanation as to why Rafa has such a shitty AI in this battle.
She just saw her brother get KILLED before her eyes. If that happened to your brother, wouldn't you blindly fling yourself at your enemies without thinking? I know I would.
Even more so if the person who killed my brother was, well, killed by someone ELSE right in front of me.
.. Wow, that's timing... I'm actually playing FFXI in the background, and right when Malak raised, the 'Raise' magic sound effect went off in the game... >.>
I don't know what the other explanations are or what the wiki says. I haven't even gotten this far on the PSP version despite having made Ramza a MASTERED Dark Knight. Stuck on the execution site because the rest of my party is a little under-powered. My interpretation of why it didn't make him evil? The Stone's are not inherently evil, they're simply power, that power reflects the heart of the user. Someone who grieved out of love for her brother is not evil. It was a desire to save another.
I remember this fight... *Flashback* RAFA YOU IDIOT... Damn it Rafa... Not again... OH MY GOD...THEY KILLED RAFA...YOU BASTARDS! Son of a B####... F###! Why...why do you keep doing that Rafa? NNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... I GIVE UP... Is it possible to beat this damn battle!? *Flashback ends* With luck, you can beat this battle like you did HC Bailly.
I think this is the first time one of your videos has disappointed me. I had always thought of you as a completionist, similar to myself, so it's sad to see that you didn't pack your party full of max speed Thieves to steal the unique equipment and then manage to get that certain spell.
pardon me, but does anyone know what song is playing when rafa, malak, and ramza are all talking about the corpses and alma and stuff? im sorry i just really wanna know...

I can't believe so many people had trouble with this battle... it never gave me any problem. The assassins always seemed to try to kill my characters, not Rafa. But I guess that's because I was a higher level with more speed to get up there, or something. I always just wailed on Lede and she died fast, usually after insta-killing one of my characters with her 100% instant death ability.
drunyon214 5 months ago
For those who haven't played this game and were wondering why the assassin's were very deadly, well they have an instant kill attack that has 100% accuracy. It's got a one square radius (like a melee attack), but still. 100%. You don't fuck around with that.
ChaosBahamut 5 months ago
@ChaosBahamut And they also have a much more accurate version of Steal Heart. (think that's got a 100% chance of hitting as well, although it has the same limitation Steal Heart does in that it only works on units of the opposite gender or monsters)

why are you using lise instead of angela in the final sd3 path when the rest have used hawk and the character from that path
kkkirlia 5 months ago
@kkkirlia Angela contributes VERY little to her own storyline, compared to the other characters. Hawk is far more versatile and able to greatly change the dynamic of the party, unlike Angela. Worry not, though. I do have a save state to show off the very few unique interactions between Angela & Duran.

I believe Cid adopted Orran/Olan, so he's his adoptive father. (At least to the best of my memory)
ZeryusAgain 5 months ago
@ZeryusAgain Olan is the adopted son of Cid, he says so when you meet him for the second time (episode 34 of this LP).
Although he says he is his father-in-law in this version, in the PSP version he says he was adopted as a child. So I assume it is just another case of poor translation (as is most of the dialogue in this game).

@epsleon The PS1 version's translation issues are mostly in Chapter 4 I believe, I'm sure we've seen quite a few derps here and there but Chapter 4 is just horrible.

gameruler95 5 months ago
I believe that how a Zodiac Stone is used depends on the person. They have power, and whether it is used to become a Lucavi (represented by the stone's sign), or some other effect, is based on the user's... Intent. They grant the user's wish. Now, I do believe that the Lucavi actually have certain people they are 'linked' to (you'll see), but even if you don't become one, you're influenced by them if it's a selfish wish, like power, revenge, ect. And Rafa's wasn't.

Ya know, HCBaily, I pretty much agree with you on how good final fantasy games are. for example, I love ff tactics, 9, 4, and 6 but my bottom ones are 8 and 2. My question is why do you not like ff10, its one of my, if not the favorite of the series.

i heard that the Lucavi in the holy stone Rafa has is trying to redeem it's self so by resurrecting Malak and not turning him evil it felt somewhat redeemed
JonoRei 5 months ago
The Lucavi in this game are several of the Espers from FF XII. In the remake this is more apparent because several things were altered in it to connect it to the other Ivalice games. Exaples are Velius becomes Belias and Holy Stones renamed Auracite, the stone in which Espers' glyphs are contained.

Considering the point of fighting is to kill people the added danger of being on a roof is negligible
goglespit 5 months ago
Elmodor wasnt a bad guy in life though. That theory doesnt work HCBailley. What I was thinking was that it depends on the circumstances involved in death. Falling in battle during a war, or against Ramza in the cathedral are far different than dieing to save your sister's life. There wasnt much rage or anger, just the desire to protect her. That's what I think anyways.
Loffter 5 months ago
In this particular battle, no character has priority on their attack chart, so they act as normal. I dont know WHY she cast stop bracelet on rafa instead of just killing her, but once she was stopped, the AI decided she wasnt a threat so went for ramza.

I am honestly surprised no one caught what the Grand Duke was talking about to Rafa. It is made all the more explicit in the PSP version to the point I was glad the Lucavi did him in.

Belthazar1113 5 months ago
Why do you always take a break at the end of a disc/chapter? You don't take breaks if the game only has 1 disc, like FFVI. And FFVI has way more episodes then FFT (so far).
FFVI = 93 episode, no breaks
FFT = 40 episode (so far) = 3 breaks.
I just find your reason for taking breaks... odd.
No offense ^^
OnePieceFollower 5 months ago
@OnePieceFollower It seems like an appropriate time to take a day off. Especially early in the LP, I wasn't accustomed to making 15-20 minute episodes. You might say that's only 5 more minutes, but that gets multiplied by the testing, editing, reviewing, and processing that I have to do. It took me a little getting used to. It was also difficult for me to get together with my brother to record our side LP, so I sometimes wanted a day off from this to record a few episodes of that.

@Burialhound it IS hard when Im doing your mom, how did you know? :)
The breaks were just noticeable because there are so many in this LP. And I just named a random game with 1 disc/cartridge and went to his playlist to check how many episodes it has. As if I actually know how many episodes each of his playlists are... dumbass. I don't know what goes on in that little head of yours, but you've got problems (probably child abuse and rape)
And how are you gonna make me take a break 'permanently'?
OnePieceFollower 5 months ago
@OnePieceFollower
How do you know how many breaks he takes from the playlists? you would have to sit there and write down every time he has taken a break in a LP. And I wont make you take a break, just a suggestion. So go and watch your shitty little anime shows, the big boys have to go to work.
Burialhound 5 months ago
@Burialhound I don't know how many breaks he takes. He only does it when a game has seperate discs and/or chapters. And I KNOW, for example, FF6 has no seperate chapters. I don't know why you makes such assumptions, but I guess you can't expect more from someone with a lower IQ then a monkey. I rather watch my anime shows then arguing with a dumbass. And you're a big boy? Does that mean you can use your daddy's tampons now? Enjoy your big-boy job (which is probably code for prostitution)

Because Rafa used the stone for another instead of for her own power or gain, it reacted in a way as to simply call back Malak's spirit. The Stones aren't necessarily evil or good, it just reacts to the holder.

I think that it's based on the person, but not that if the person has a good will then there is no demon. I think it's a matter of whether or not the person has the will to suppress the Lucavi. Or at least that's what I gathered from Malak and Ramza's dialogue after Malak's revival.

You know, I was reading something, somewhere, that gives a logical explanation as to why Rafa has such a shitty AI in this battle.
She just saw her brother get KILLED before her eyes. If that happened to your brother, wouldn't you blindly fling yourself at your enemies without thinking? I know I would.
Even more so if the person who killed my brother was, well, killed by someone ELSE right in front of me.

I don't know what the other explanations are or what the wiki says. I haven't even gotten this far on the PSP version despite having made Ramza a MASTERED Dark Knight. Stuck on the execution site because the rest of my party is a little under-powered. My interpretation of why it didn't make him evil? The Stone's are not inherently evil, they're simply power, that power reflects the heart of the user. Someone who grieved out of love for her brother is not evil. It was a desire to save another.
