If you see any inconsistencies in what is written on a tooltips and what something's actual effect is, let me know immediately! Many of these flags/effects/innates have been changed from vanilla so when in doubt, check the tooltips. Named characters have a quote - some drop hints, while some aren't exactly serious. All tooltips that were wrong in vanilla have been corrected (including zodiac signs and things no longer relevant to the game). Class/monster names list innates and where you can get them if they're recruitable. (Press the help button over anything you want to tooltips) Literally, everything that is possible to be tooltipped (with the exception of skillset names which I'm not too sure what to put there except maybe flavor text later) now has a tooltips that tells you what you need to know. The #1 advice I can give any player starting out on the mod is to tooltips everything. If you're a vet from another mod/vanilla challenge runs, the AI hasn't been changed so you can still abuse it in many of the same ways. Encounters have been balanced to help break bad habits taught from vanilla. If this is your first time playing a FFT mod, don't give up! It can be tough to learn at first because it's something you're not used to. Most notable changes that lead to its new difficulty are the improved monsters and enemy formations in general, the enemy scaling to the party level, and shenanigans in general.

Monsters also now have greatly improved innates, including several r/s/m abilities, innate status, status/elemental resistances, etc.ĭue to several changes in the mod, it's a lot tougher than vanilla FFT. Every monster has a minimum of 4 skills, and several have far more than that. Monsters are now dangerous - they are no longer the pathetic counter bots of vanilla.

You can no longer hire human units, but you can recruit monsters for free in random battles. Human population has been mysteriously dying out, and monsters have taken over.

Many changes have been made, not only to the battles themselves, but to the mechanics of the game. So forget *almost* everything you thought you knew. Welcome to Ivalice! This isn't the same Ivalice you may have remembered from Vanilla FFT.
