7. After having viewed a few battles involving Final Fantasy characters, I have decided that they have the capability to severely un-balance their duels because of a large amount of communal resources. Namely Magic. The same applies to super-powerful forms of armor. The new rule is such: unless a certain form of magic (or armor) is specific to a certain character (i.e. Vivi casts Black Magic) then the character does not have access to magic. Also, unless a specific type of armor can only be worn by that specific charcter, they don't have access to it. I've seen too many people basically end all arguments with "Cloud casts Ultima, Cloud wins" or something to that effect. The focus here is on the character's specific allotment of abilities and how you can creatively give them the win using their abilities. Not who has the more powerful shit. This rule takes effect after Auron vs. Master Jinx has ended.
That's the new rule. Its bullshit. I have two MAJOR PROBLEMS with this rule.
1. The power of 99.98 of the FF characters here use these things that are not allowed. Ho w can you not allow magic? The abillity use magic as an offense is the key to all victories in FF. To win in FF YOU NEED MAGIC! Now on to defense. Defending yourself with armor that protects against death or that absorbs a certain element is another key to victory in the Final Fantasy series.
2. What about Seymour Omnis? His ENTIRE arsenal is the most powerful elemental magic such as Firega and Waterga. He can't do shit if you can't use magic. No Ultima, no Dispel, he's fucked!
3. What about skills? Like Auto-Reflect? They aren't armor just skills that the person can learn to defend themselves. Other characters from other games get special stuff. They NEED these skills to survive.
That's about all my complaints. I'd just like to repeat this is BULLSHIT!!! I hate this crap. By setting this rule in place, the FF characters are doomed. The arena will be stained with the blood of these characters... They're deaths are inevitable...
