EDIT: V8, you're a NINJA, not a pirate. There's a difference.
You got a point there.

Today we paid more attention to the stupid blue people and got a lead. Something or other is in the west with a bunch of elves. Got it.
It was smooth sailing until we were almost to the coast of an unknown continent when... shark attack! I'm not sure what kind of shark it was, but it was making this odd clicking sound, so I'm going to guess great white.
Fortunately, we all survived and anchored in the first port we found. After a vicious ogre attack, Fenx and I were downed, but Pixl and Brut bravely carried on the mission... whatever the mission was.
Brut, not being particularly smart, was somehow convinced to carry both Fenx and I while Pixl scouted ahead and found a mountain cave. Inside, not elves but dwarves! I quite like these people. The first guy we meet just says Hurray! at the very sight of us, as did another dwarf just sitting in a chair at home... shouting hurray! What friendly, excitable people. Another dwarf was eager to announce "Dwarves can see in the dark!" I can only imagine what a happy, innocent life he must lead to still be so excited to tell any newcomer he meets about his most basic physical abilities.
Our one lead was from a blacksmith named Smith (who, disappointingly, was not black... oh well, one for two). He offered to make us a powerful sword but was out of ADAMANT. After some initial confusion, Brut determined that he did not, in fact, mean this guy:
Regardless, we will keep an eye out for the band, as I'm not sure what else he could have meant.
Yeowch, was that what hit me? Jeez, no wonder I woke up feeling like I got hit by a truck...Ah well, you knock down some, you get knocked down some. The life of a Light Warrior in a nutshell.
I think the reason the dwarves were so excited to see us was because I don't think they've seen a woman down here in forever. I mean, seriously, they have no taste in interior decorating and do they take baths? I don't think so. I don't have the heart to tell them that I'm not female, though.
Oh, and I'll be sure to keep an eye out for the band, Captain.
lol, a Great White shark that makes clicking noises...nice...

There can only be one, like in that foreign movie where there could only be one, and in the end there is only one dude left, because that was the point.
Hah! It's coming. I have the chat saved with all off-topic discussion edited out. I just want to edit it some more so that it doesn't seem offensive (there is a surprising number of Kubi - Poo [not the prince from Earthbound] comparisons and comments of that nature which I'd be quicker to say in chat than on a forum).
DAY FOUR, MONDAY, OCTOBER 19 Today we had nap time.
DAY FIVE, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20 Today we rode around aimlessly beating up a bunch of sharks to make up for lost time yesterday. I expect a call from PETA tomorrow. On a side note, I expect I will be too busy napping again to answer. Shark beating is tiresome work.
Finally we found the elf village. Elves are greedy little jerks though, and we couldn't afford anything. I was going to just steal something, being a thief, but Pixl saw a hole to the south and ran away excitedly. The guy likes holes in the ground. In the hole we found a dungeon. In the dungeon we found some awesome music and just sat there listening. Then we died. We will try again tomorrow if nap time permits.
So I'm thinking of restarting this, and possibly logging it as well, but I need some tips from those who've beaten the game before (or at least gotten far). If you've beaten the remake, I suppose that might be helpful, too, though it's significantly easier, I'm told, and a bit different.
Last time I just played haphazardly, not realizing how very, very unforgiving the game can be, and I got stuck early on. Suggestions I'm looking for in particular:
What are some ideal teams?
What are good spell sets to aspire to for any spell casters on said teams?
Any important secrets or tricks I should know about?
When I start, I might ask for leveling advice (what level should I be at for certain areas, where to level, etc), or I might just use a guide, if I find this necessary at all.
I had a Fighter/Fighter/Red Mage/White Mage team that pwned. You can toss a thief in for that second fighter if you want to spice it up.
As for spells, that's a little harder to figure out in one post. I can look at my file again and see what worked really well, if you want.
Also, as for tricks, the best one for overleveling is the Power Peninsula. When you get to Pravoka (the pirate-infested town), go east and then north when the path splits. At the end of the peninsula are two spaces where the monsters are much more powerful, but still managable if you're smart. You can spend a few hours there getting way overleveled and getting gil out the wazoo. :3

Thanks! I see you're playing the remake now. This information is coming from experience with the original? I don't know the extent or degree of difference between the two, so I'm just being cautious.
As for spells, well, if I don't get any other advice, I might take you up on that. I'll probably look up a spell guide, too, and try to decide in advance instead of just loading up on everything that sounds cool without reading what it does, haha. That didn't work so well last time when I ended up in a poison-infested labyrinth and no empty slot for a status-healing spell.
Haha, I try to pick names that fit the stringent character restrictions, though maybe you can be Drago the Fighter if I go with Phoenix's team suggestion. I think I'll go with new names this time so as not to put my old team through more hardship than necessary.
Yes, I worked the Fighter/Fighter/Red Mage/White Mage team in the original. Best part was when I hit the class change I had four people who could heal. It's a really solid team, though, because the first two people in your line-up get hit much more often than the other two, and if they're both tanks, then it's not so bad. :3
Yeah, a spell guide would be perfect too. That's how I picked all my spells, lol

For you, the day LordJumpMad graced your threads, was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday. [url=http://www.backloggery.com/jumpmad]Unive...
