Ability Info Page Wanted
« on: March 16, 2012, 04:49:06 pm »
Hi there,
I am about to start the campaign, and of course I've restarted twice for new abilities (before even killing anything either!!).

OK - my suggestion, make a HTML page with all hero's ability choices.  This way, I can decide to give so-and-so an ability that causes bleed effect for so-and-so's ability that gets +25% damage for bleeding targets.  First time I ended up picking 2 abilities which caused bleeding, but none that benefits from it O_O, and the second time was just all messed up.  I'm making up a list for myself so I can go and finally pick the right ones and start PLAYING!!!!

But I think it would be awesome to have one HTML page with all the possible abilities so one can tailor their party keeping all the party members in mind.  I also had some questions about some of the abilities and wasn't sure where to post them.
Time is the greatest teacher, but it kills all of it's students.

Hello there new guy !

I have been thinking about making an ability info panel too and now that you have asked I will try to create one.

About your questions about abilities, you can ask about them in The Help Masterthread in the Help Me Board.

It would be really convenient, but if you ask me, i would say that some abilities are, in my opinion, really unneeded, saved some exceptions, for example there's a point in the game that some phodom's skills are really disposable. You can make your own "skill build" based on some info around the forums or you can do like me start your first game with a bugged skill that can kill you permanently  ::). If you're too lazy(like I was before making that stupidity) to look around the forums, there's always the give up option in chapter 4  ;) (very convenient since you'll test all characters skills you picked, AND make some extra money  for the next play)
Another thing, the "stagger, bleed, whatever" system can be useful, but it isn't necessary, especially in some easier difficults. 

Obs: this is my personal opinion.

Aero, when have i said "useless" ??? ? I'm just saying that I almost don't use some phodom skills(or other characters skills) a example would be meltdown that i used on my 2nd play, it isn't useless(in fact is a good skill), but when i'm on a difficult battle at a later chapter (6 or 7) i have more important things to do(healing for example, support skills NEVER would be useless), so i practically don't use it. The last post was to make the new guy to stop restarting the game countless times to make a good build, because it doesn't really matter that much. "Useless" and "Unneeded" are two different things:
Useless: something that don't have any use
Unneded: something that maybe useful(or maybe not), but that isn't necessary in a especific situation

I'm not very good at english, so maybe my chose of words was a bit harsh, so sorry for the misunderstanding.
Ps: I've said that is my personal opinion.

Aero: Just forget what i've said it's my personal opinion and i caused kind of a lot of discussion  :-\ .
The abilities are okay, but my play style is different and i don't use some of them. Besides that, i think you should give some atention to the new guy's request  ::).

After Storm: I don't want to continue this discussion, it turned into a problematic one(especially for my side), but just saying that you're right. Of course when i said the abilities are unneeded it was a personal opinion, so the person was me and MAYBE Jinnx(since i was giving him a suggestion), the same with the "useless".

Man, i hate creating misundertandings, sorry guys.

roflmao, I'm sorry, but how that turned out was pretty funny. 

Aero: Abilities are great as is, Shino is just too lazy to press the button to use some of them.  :P

Doomlord: woot, an ability page would rock (I think!) I also think it would be super cool to have the ability icon next to the name/descript, but not sure if that will work for forum setup.  And *I THINK* it would be good to organize them like in the game first by character, then by 'skill subset', but any way you put it together would be great!

Oh, and I know this isn't the right spot to put it, but here it is.  THE CAMERA FARTHER THING IS THE BOMB!!!! <3 <3 <3 it!!!!

I don't know how to make such a page and I think Xarwin won't just do one for us.

You could make to the Walkthrough section a thread about abilities or use make one to the Wiki. Chimto was doing one, but he shut down the whole Wiki because none actually helped him. Now we have another Wiki which is pretty much dead. But at least that won't die because I'm the founder and I won't shut it down.

Here's the wiki: http://dragoncircle.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_Circle_Wiki
