Heh, the thing with me and Mystics that would make Tower less than powerful, though, is that I usually raise WP and JP with Mystics. It seems, while you can raise both of them together, to a higher sum than you can raise just one, it seems that the sum of the numbers eventually hits a cap. So, my point is, I never get to 100 WP/JP with mystics. While, when I level up an absurd amount, my humans will reachs 140-150 WP or JP, my Mystic characters, which raise both, kinda caps at about 90/80.
Kraken’s are good fightin’, yep. Got plenty of HP, you can take precautions against most of their attacks, and worse comes to worse, I got Deadend and TimeEclipse equipped to everyone to take him down at a moment’s notice.
My Mystics have been able to get plenty of JP. Way over 100. Then again I have mystics fight by themselves. Someone once said that the game has a level up priority order. And that humans are above mystics. So if you have humans fight with Mystics then Mystics suffer. Also at the same time the person at the top ie the front member gets more benefit.
In essence it is better to have Mystics fight by themselves because of that during level up phases. Of course when I’m actually going through a dungeon I don’t worry about such things. Rei by the way has 145 JP and I often worked on her with the humans. My party is mainly Asselus, Annie, Emelia, Rei and Mesatharim.
In general it has been much easier for me to level up Mystics with a slight help from monsters. Ie the monsters to protect them from Suzakus that I need to absorb.
Do they have that much JP with a lot of WP, though, Ajora?
What you say may be true, but I really wonder, because, fighting with Humans, my Mystics DO get just as strong. The WP/JP thing is really the only thing. Whereas my humans have about 140-150 WP and 0 JP (Or just the opposite), my mystics usually just have 90 and 80 respectively. All their stats are just as good, if not better, because of the things I absorb for them.
I’m not sure. It’s been awhile since I played SaGa Frontier. Well I did recently kill Asellus’ final boss. And the last game I played of her I concentrated a bit more on magic for my mystics and didn’t worry much about fighting. Perhaps I should start a new game later and see how things go. Wait I already started a new game of T260G, but he has no mystics. I’ll probably start a new Asellus game too. I’m starting to miss playing SaGa Frontier.
Edit: I do remember having cases where some Mystics and Humans have had decent WP and JP. Like 120 each or more. However that could be because of how I murder Krakens sometimes. As in a lot…
Yeah, i tend to have my mystics have only spells equipped on their skill screen, but I end up using the absorbed skills enough that their WP and JP are usually roughly even, with a bit of a tip toward JP.
Me too Ajora. The particular instance I’m speaking of, was an old 20 HOUR (jeez I was bored :P) Emilia file, in which I could kill a Kraken in 1 turn or less (less than 5 attacks).
20 hours is “bored” for you? I do an average of 18 hours each game!
Heh…I average 2-5… 
How? it takes me that long just to get all the magics, adn items from said quests! Not facotring in levelling…
After White Rose leaves and your party goes away for a while where and when do you get them back. If its one of those random things im screwed because of Tanzer swallowing me. I cant fight Liches with just Asellus, Zozma and the Turnip. ::doh::
You’re supposed to go visit any of the screens that you’d have those Mystic Fights on, and they should all return. So yeah, in Tanzer, you’re screwed.
Damn oh well sucks for me. I’ll also have Fei- On which can at least help a little. Do they appear in any of those spots cause then i can go to Koorong Sewers and not be screwed over.
Places to try and get them back:
Entrance to Shingrow Ruins
Luminous
Sei’s Tomb, about three screens in
Wakatu, outside the Main building
the Swamp in Yorkland
One of the first screens to the backstreets of Koorong
Entrance to the basement in Lord’s Manor
And that’s all I can remember now.
Never mind I found them in the same place they went away. Either this happens every time or I’m really lucky. :yipee:
