Tracking the Elusive Beast (27/09/2006)

**Eternus** · 2006-09-27 10:50

I can't jump in Lineage II either, same with a bunch of other MMOs. Jumping in WoW isn't that big of a feature compared to everything else about the game. City of Heroes/Villians you can actually fly/superjump/teleport/levitate in addition to jumping, so fuck WoW on that one.

I'm busy breaking the latent for Ground Strike right this second <.<

rofl

that's fucking classic lol

I laughed so hard when I noticed one of the tarus, in what seems to be a BLM hat, looks as though he's falling down right on his face mid-run. Maybe SE *do* know more about our game than we are giving them credit for.

Frog people look fun. I wondered when it said "see if you can find one", maybe there is already an NPC or something already in the game in some obscure TOA area. But I'm guessing if there was, someone would have found it already

Maybe SE developers like Keroro Gunso? XD

**Kuponut** · 2006-09-27 11:27

Poroggos besieged!

**Miji** · 2006-09-27 11:34

How do they swim with hats on?

Perhaps this is an indication as to what the future ToAU missions are going to be like. I can already hear the Lemmiwinks theme playing while you talk to this npc ("A great adventure is waiting for you ahead....").

Southpark ftw!

I don't think you had to stay a toad, but I think I remember that. lol

I also have vague memories of other games where you had to be a toad or mini for certain things to happen. In one, you had to be transformed and walk around a forest to get sucked into a hidden village (via random enemy encounter that happened to put you inside the village). In another (non-FF game, but it was an RPG), you had to touch something to make yourself small, and go through a dungeon similar to FF3j, only you did remain small for the fights. It's been awhile since I played all those, though, I forget which game had what.

Looking forward to encountering the Poroggos. Perhaps new spells may be added with these mobs, would a BLU be able to learn a spell off them? Since this info isn't in .DATs atm, we'll have to wait until October update to gleen the details.

**Dethsbane** · 2006-09-27 12:20

Beseige for starting cities. Imagine that, lol.

Actually, Frog Magic is in the .dat files, between Libra, and Protectra in the White Magic section. (ROM/11/4.dat)

So their character models are in the .DATs? The quest text surrounding possible quest involving them is in the .DATs? Any items like scrolls that may teach their magic is in the .DATs? The text required for a BLU spell is already in the .DATs? Glad it is cause it answer all of our questions.

Naw, just magic that resembles Toad magic, you asked for magic, I showed you the old .dat >_> BLU won't be able to learn anything from them, unless they relocated said magic from white magic to blue magic. As for the models, S-E will and it to the .dat files, much like they did for Soulflayer and Walmoura.

SE did go on record saying they would add more things for BLU to learn, so with introduction of new monster type one would think they would have certiain abilities one might learn.

Better be able to charm frogs.

Edit* So does a taru genocide. I agree.

I've always wanted a Mini spell in this game so I could make a macro that says: "Back off! I have a shrink ray!"

Maybe that means that one of the fights for ToAU will be in someone's intestines against Paris Hilton.

I'm somehow impressed. SE just gave us more background to a race that wasnt implemented in game than let's say....goblin after 4 years.

And that to the fact that this picture is just epic.
