Quick status can be gained by having the spell 'Quick' successfully cast on you or by having the reaction ability 'Critical Quick' triggered. The triggering of Critical Quick occurs when the unit with the ability equipped receives damage that leaves them with under 20% of their max HP. While Critical Quick might not seem that great there are situations when it is the best reaction ability in the game. For a more reliant way to gain Quick, learn it for 800 JP from the Time Mage skill set. Quick costs 24 MP which might be a little costly but has decent speed (25) and a decent formula (targetsfaith*castersfaith*(MA+140)). Rig some zodiac compatibility between your group and Quick can be very reliable and fun to use. Quick can be reflected (though not Math Skilled) but the most interesting thing about it is that it can be Counter Magicked! Seriously that exclamation point isn't one of the fake ones that should be a period, I actually used to get giddy when considering this. Look at the spells that can be Counter Magicked: - All Black Magic except Fire 4, Ice 4, and Bolt 4 - Holy, Dark Holy - Yin-Yang Magic except Pray Faith and Doubt Faith - Slow, Slow 2, Don't Move, Quick, Stop, Demi, Demi 2, Meteor - Bio, Bio 2, Bio 3 - Melt, Tornado, Quake - Attacks from the Blaze Gun, Glacier Gun, and Blast Gun Ramza: "Restore lost time in a spiral line! Quick!"

It probably -can- be just as easy as print, but you'd better be willing to use some glue to get a big enough piece (unless you have a big printer/plotter that sign makers use... but if you had something like that, you wouldn't be asking this, so I'll assume not) There's probably somewhere where you can just buy a gridded map though, why not get something like that? Or Graphing Paper if you don't use minis.

Sikyanakotik 09-16-06, 09:26 PM	Dude, FFTA was great! Are you honestly telling me you liked VIII better? And so the thread began to swiftly derail...
Seerow 09-16-06, 09:34 PM	Dude, FFTA was great! Are you honestly telling me you liked VIII better? Actually yes. They were about equal in terms of story, (that is to say both sucked), FFVIII had the better battle system, and was prettier to look at.
Sikyanakotik 09-16-06, 09:55 PM	Then we're going to have to agree to disagree, for I enjoyed FFTA's more complex battle system and playful sprite-based graphics. Sadly, I've never had a chance to play the original Tactics.

Sadly, I've never had a chance to play the original Tactics. This then is why you like FFTA's battle system. FFTA took FFIX's Weapon Learning System instead of FFT's JP system, which was a HUGE blow to the customizability of FFT. Add to that the races having completely different sets of classes, and tons of weapons, most of which are exactly the same except for name, and you get a game that adds complication for no real reason. Then consider that they also changed the CT system, the stats, and pretty much everything else... it was too far of a deviation from FFT for me to be happy with. Especially considering how many of the changes they made made things worse overall. Also, while FFVIII's system was more simplistic, it is probably among my favorites. The Junction system is just awesome like that. My favorite systems probably go FFT>FF7>FF8
