Yes.
I believe it was mentioned at some point that the game would crash if he tried to force it to accept 9 characters in the fight and he hadn't found a way around it.
It did, thanks - didn't realise that Mk2 still needed the patches. Is it intentional that the first 'level up' requires 200 SP in Arrange? I think it was 100 previously.
It's likely a response to the fact that it's easy to farm SP if you know what you're doing, and some Disc 1 players were getting some of their characters Rank Ups maxed out. And I'm pretty sure one of the players commented on that being the case in "Normal", but I admit I may be mistaken on that.
If I'm remembering correctly, was a way to let chars "Catch up" in levels. So every 10 levels you have a plateau of xp. So for an easy example Cloud early game on a normal play through is going to out level everyone. More so if you want/are forced to swap chars for boss fights or certain stretches of time. This plateau causes cloud to not really get any more than 3-4 levels ahead at any time of your reserves.
Makes sense, I was doing my own little challenge run with limited xp. But came to that exact problem, not everyone was the same level. So every level or 5 I synch everyone to clouds XP, suddenly I found I needed x10 xp for a lvl and that raised alarm flags. Been trying to fix for an hour coming to the conclusions theres nothing to fix
. Have a karma !I just got through the fight using the original installer, I forgot to patch my game with the hotfixes.Ah, spoke too soon - the Ziegfried fight is still broken for me post patch I'm afraid
It's processed after every action taken by any actor.
did you try my save file yet to see if it was something on my end causing the huge damage output
if that's the case with cloud and red then it RLLY shouldn't take long for red to max himself out. i just got cloud's second wind during the x-atm scorpion battle....so it would stand to reason that had red been in there he'd make quick work of the thing all by himself.
