Dancer

[Kononeko]

BTW, just cause I haven't seen it said, the job Sundi says "there's a hint about if you read what the expansion's about" (not a direct quote, probably missing a "wut" or two) probably isn't dancer.

Obviously you missed the part where the Orcs capture Aldo's sister and make her a sex slave; while she was held captive she broke free after mastering the art of Dancer (because sex slaves are good at pole dancing, duh).

hmm wait that reminds me of....

I believe it was discovered a while ago that undead is (or was) an un-dispellable status effect when lockheart or something glitched up and actually dispelled it. So an undead status effect may already exist.

So, it would seem that Zombie would be fairly easy to put into the game, and the more I thought about it, the less it seems like mobs casting it on players would be a horribly bad thing. Just don't cure them until they get erased (or whatever will remove it), and there's always /blockaid on, but that's when you don't have outside healers on your team.

I dunno, a mob that could cast that (HNM maybe) would be kind of fun, since it would add another level of strategy to defeat it, just so you don't cure your allies to death. >.>

if i'm not mistaken... Zombie also made it so mobs couldn't hurt you? and if you got cured you got hurt. also you could not act? not remembering exactly everything.... but.... it seems if Zombie made it so mobs couldn't hurt you might open up a whole new aspect of the game. HNM fights etc.

am i wrong?

Zombie (in ff6 at least) put you at 0 HP, cures wouldn't work but you remained active at 0 HP. You couldn't control your character, and the character would also randomly attack allies as well as enemies. Holy Water would cure the status and put you at approx the hp you'd have if you were raised.

If I didn't have this stupid websense filter thing at work, I could look it up:

http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Z...tatus_ailment)

Of course, <3 Google cache for letting me read it. It looks like it varies from game to game. I'd bet it would be the latter description, if they would implement something like it in FFXI.

the Zombie status makes the afflicted character undead, acquiring the same elemental resistances that zombie enemies do.

And for those who can't get there:

Zombie is a negative status ailment that appears in various games in the series, as well as the spell that causes the status. Its effects vary from game to game. In some games, the player loses control of characters inflicted with Zombie, and they automatically attack allies or opponents. In these games, the game ends if all characters are zombies. In others, the Zombie status makes the afflicted character undead, acquiring the same elemental resistances that zombie enemies do.

Zombie can be cured by using a Revivify (in later games called a Holy Water).

The first description would be much more fun.

The trailer finished with a shot of great, gaping mouth in the sky. It resembled something of a hurricane's eye, yet was bluish-purple with an eye-wall ringed with teeth. Square hinted longtime players should recognize this as a reference to a mythological creature within the FFXI universe.

I feel ya, I got websense @ work too. Except they block Bluegartr as well for being a "forum-based" website. Yeah ... hate websense so hard.

Someone ask for a SMN?

Looking closely at the footage, it REALLY looks like the rose move is coming from the RDM. Just before the rose blooms, theres a flower trail coming from the rdm's body, and it flows behind him.

I swear to god if I get a fucking Rose WS
