Sorry! I didn't want to bump this sort of old thread!
Somewhere in the thread people started talking about the Thief Ability Hide and such, and I had some more questions/observations!
The other day~ I went with 6 other people to kill Ash Dragon, the Ninja would just tank Ash Dragon while me and the Samurai were getting TP from Bombs and Lizzies (When Meditate was down). The Ninja would go behind Ash Dragon and I would SATA+Shark Bite on the Ninja, and the Samurai would SATA+Tachi: Kasha, then the Black Mage would Magic Burst Thunder IV or Thundaga III, blah blah... Anyways! Ash Dragon Aggros to Sound and Sight, and is not True Sight (Even though Somepage says it is, but its not!) Anyways~ I could still use Hide, and not be spotted by Ash Dragon.
So hide must only be based on the "hate list" or something like that, which I guess is obvious!
But I was wondering if anyone has tested this on True Sight monsters! using SATA+WS on someone as the only action they performed on the monster, then using hide. I would love to try this myself! But my LS really doesn't fight many True Sight monsters, except for Gods and such really, and even then I am only in the battle for like 5% of its HP! and tanks are moving around and being very uncooperative towards TA!
I only ask because in the thread listed above, we had talked about using SATA+Hide+WS on things like Nidhogg and Fafnir etc. Though, I am sure that a THF/SAM only using SATA+Hide+WS on them, and only getting TP through Meditate wouldn't be as effective as a THF/SAM using TA+WS, then getting TP through a Meditate and a few melee hits, because Magic Bursts are the main damage against such things right? (I have never fought either one before! Can never get my LS to make it to Dragon's Aery! even if I get the exact ToD for them several days in a row!) It would just be interesting to know is all!
