Final Fantasy Online [Project]

Some new things im working on that will connect to the sackbots. Its pretty cool. Its gonna improve gameplay alot. Also because im adding it in it may delay the release of the first update.

I will show you once I have all the images done. Should be soon.

Im going to have to redo some logic for somethings so they run better. Bind illness would be one of those things.

I also found the problem with the menu controls. It seems I cant have up/down with the d-pad and have option to have popit.

Sackbots

Steps:
Adding in new features (Imprvements, Add-Ons, Special Abilities)
Testing...
Improving...
Syncing...
Save...

Adjusting sackbots for Levels
Remove all stats to everything
Start adding huge amounts of gates-paths for every few levels

I can help with control design if you like. Just pm me with the necessary controls or post them here and I'll try and come up with something that doesn't require an infinite amount of button combinations.

I been saying I am adding something special in and here we go...

http://ie.lbp.me/img/ft/d6ee551e2606...36c1380a12.jpg

illness and buff up display

First Row: Curse, Doom, Petifie, Status Down, Bind, Gravity, Charm, (Fighting a Enemy), (Mission/Quest),( BattleField Arena), Exp Chain

Curse, HP & MP down/Gravity
Petifie, cant use actions or walk
Status Down, Attacks will be 3-10 levels weaker
Bind, cant walk
gravity, will walk slow
Charm, will be unable to control your sackbot. Your sackbot will become a enemy and attack other players.

Second Row: Blind, Poison, Dia, Bio, Slow, Crush, Chock, Burn, Drown, Frost, Shock

Blind, Actions will miss
Dia, will get hurt over a period of time and get weak PHY DEF
Bio, will get hurt over a period of time and get weak MAG DEF
Slow, Auto-Attack will run slow
Crush, will get hurt over a period of time and PHY DEF will be lowered
Chock, will get hurt over a period of time and EVA will be lowered
Burn, will get hurt over a period of time and ATK will be lowered
Drown, will get hurt over a period of time and MAG DEF attack will be lowered
Frost, will get hurt over a period of time and Magic Attack will be lowered
Shock, will get hurt over a period of time and Critical hit rate will be lowered

Third Row: Status Up, Stoneskin, Protect, Shell, Haste, (Crystal "Special Ability Active), HP Plus/Auto heal. TP Plus, MP plus, Attack plus, Leader Icon

Status Up, will gain 3~10 levels of extra to your sackbot without earning it.
Stoneskin Eats 50 damage points without effecting HP bar
Protect, raises PHY DEF by 20%
Shell, raises MAG DEF by 20%
Haste, Auto-Attack will run 2x the speed
HP Plus, When auto-heal is active and earning extra HP over a period of time
TP Plus, Gaining TP/limit break points without attacking
MP Plus, Gaining extra MP over a period of time
Attack Plus, Will release extra damage points when doing actions.

As you can theres 3 small circles also

That displays a player "Hate" Players with Red hate will have Enemies follow them
Yellow is just means you have near warning
Green means you have hate but enemies dont directly follow you.

Rough idea on how its gonna be on the sackbots
Theres been some plains to redo menu system but not likely a huge overhall.
Alot of these new icons will need a huge amount of logic and overhall to alot of sackbot logic.
I also want to fix illness problems such as bind which still exsists in Malbero fight.
Also like to add in new illness logic and ways to clear the illnesses. Whitemage Reg spell Esuna will not remove the following illnesses...
Curse,Doom,Petif,Status down,charm,gravity,slow.

Whitemages special ability will remove all illnesses and heal everyone to full.

http://ic.lbp.me/img/ft/b0c3ddd656b2...b9de1fb628.jpg

I been thinking of making the sackbot menus appear below the sackbot cus it gets in the way of the gameplay.

Also... due to the lack of players playing LBP2. I will make my game a 3 player main game. There is no real need for a 4th player. It helps on boss fights but thats about it. I will try to keep this game fast enough pace to keep up with normal players.
Most of the currect game can be handled with 1-3 players and I would like to keep it that way because its hard toget players together.

(THERE HAS BEEN SOME THOUGHT OF MAKING THIS A 3-4 PLAYER GAME TO HANDLE EXTRA IMPROVEMENTS)
CITY LEVELS 1 PLAYER max
FIELDS 1-3PLAYERS max
CAVES 1-3PLAYERS max
BOSS 1-4PLAYERS max

Im working on bring out new content for Update3. This will also test very new logic that will be used in the games overhall. Damage inputs and attacks will effect by touching materials rather then tag inputs/outputs. It will be mixed and will make it more easyer to dodge and display attacks.


Ifrit Battle

Expect to see this on LBP. Plans have been made up and layed out on how the fight will be displayed and fought.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXG7yfI8Eng


Few things I would like to cover...
Usefulness of special abilities,
Placement of Enemies and players
More Hardcore content then the malbero boss.
A Enemy based around lv40 that is 10 levels above max level.
Cover first view steps of the illness logic.

Tag/Senor/bounce control
Material reaction of Holograms and tags in a mix.

Ok been working on sackbot illness display alot and Impact Logic and finding ways to add new illness's into the battlefield.

Im only 1/4 done of the sackbots and still in testing phases but I have alot complete.

First off some Attacks on the Enemies will be based around Standing in a Hologram Square for Impact.

Heres what I done so far...

Battle a Bomb... Bomb uses Self KO. (Everyone near by it should get hit by damage)
Players could escape some damage by running away from the enemy outta Tag range but now...

Bomb uses Self KO... Emites a Impact Senor hologram block which is (hidden) and anyone inside this block it emite follower damage logic to that player.
Which means you cant outrun outta the tag range anymore.

This addresses some big problems with (Damage Tag)

I think I need to make 4 types of damage inputs/outputs. So Attacks towards a player that get hit dont effect players nearby reading off his Damage Tags.


Also another big thing I near sorta completed. Hate Recording Display.

Red- person with Enemy Hate

Yellow- Person 2nd max Hate (Actually just displays Enemies near you without you having max hate)

Green- Bottom person with Hate (Near a Enemy)

Grey- No Hate/Off

-----------------------------

New: Blind illness logic added in.
You will not be able to see your Action Menu for 10secs... Your Menu will still display... illnesses/buffs, HP,MP,TP, auto-attack.
Arrows and name of actions will be covered up. Makes it harder to play when you dont know what your pressing.

Whitemage Special & Esuna spell can remove this.
____________________

FFXI Battle1 Track has been added into the group logic micochip. This will play the actual battle track for (Solo Fights)

No Track has been made for (Groups) yet.
___________________

Will be adding in new Spells/Abilities such as...

Whitemage: Protect,Shell, Special (Note some of these actions will share Downtime timers with other spells)
Holy/Protect Cura/Shell (Special: Everyone Nearby Whitemage will gain FULL HP and remove all illnesses)

Dragoon: Special (Dragon/Dragoon will have extra Boosts for 20secs)

Blackmage: Special, Water, Earth, Wind (Note some of these actions will share Downtime timers with other spells)
Fire/Water, Earth/Thunder, Blizzard/Wind (Special: Will do Double Damage with Spells for 10secs)

Samaerai: Special (Will gain 20%TP per sec for 10secs)

Game has been delayed a bit since I started playing skyrim. Im sorry but most of my focus is on that game until I complete it.

I am still working on LBP.

I added in another spot for Abilities by removing the arrows. I also have space now for Special Ability.

Black Mage new Options...

Special /
Stone /
Water /
Aero /

Alot of my time as been planning Update 1 and 3 and core parts of the game which will be greatly add to such as extra abilities and level up system.

Like before I mentioned im working on the Ifrit battle that will use the hologram impact sensor logic I have been working on for enemy and sackbot overhall on how they get damaged and give damage.

Update 3

Vid of what to expect...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXG7yfI8Eng

This will be linked within Grand Comapnies missions once Update 2 & 3 are Completed.

http://ie.lbp.me/img/ft/bfe2edb927b6...33bfc7d551.jpg

Thankyou for the players waiting for so long for this. Im trying my best to get it released on time.

This right is gonna be tough so ill lend some pointers to the players.

Placement of sackbots within Arena is very important. Will need to charge placements often depending on ifrits attacks to evade damage completely.

Ifrits Attack List

Normal Attacks

Claw (Front small cone range attack)
Front Slash (Front Cone range attack)
Tail Wipe (Back Large Area Attack)

Specials

Plume (Summons ground to burst) Players that are on one within 4secs after spawned will get damage.
Cracks (Summon crack burst like plume but this spawns right under a player with Green/Yellow Hate)
Summon Swords (Summons Pets)
Hellfire (Hits everyone on screen)
Frontal Dive (Hits anyone infront of him)


Also note Ifrit will change his Max TP cap to another Counter bar which will need less TP points to earn his Specials.
If Ifrit Walks or moves often in the arena it will gain him 2HP per step.
Also good thing to know is you will have more abilities this time around so use it wisely.
Will need least 3-4 players to complete this.

Ifrit-
lv30
200HP
Weak to Water
Auto-Heal 1HP every 10secs
Auto-TP 1TP every 5secs

Ifrit fight is about halve done. Working out alot of ifrit's logic and battle animations.

I set plains for when Ifrit fight will be Published and thats between Update3 or 4.

Update1.0 will be Field Areas and Worldmap (Release of Lv1-12 Areas)
Update1.0A will be City Areas & Quest Adjustments

Update2 Level Up System, Grand Companies Room's, Grand Companies Rank1 Missions. ( Missions Aimed for lv5+)

Update3 EcoWar:Oredelle's Caverns & Malbero Menace & More Field Areas & Dungeons & Grand Companies Rank2 Missions. (Release of lv12-33 Areas) (Missions aimed for lv10/20)

Update4 Ifrit Fight & Grand Companies Rank3 Missions (Battle Aimed for lv30)

Update5 Opening Movie and extra Quests added (Gonna try to make Opening movie 3-4 levels long)

Ifrit about 60% done. Im going to hold till I finish some other aspects of the game.

Blackmage sackbot is complete. Due to other sackbot ability requests all sackbots will need extra logic. I also need to redo its Damage tags for Magical Damage.

Protect & Shell Whitemage spells are coming along nicely. Theres small bugs but its almost done.

I had some bugs with Blackmage Specials such as being overpowered and not working correctly. (His Special will only be roughly 10-15secs) Can cast any Spell without MP Cost. Blackmage can back to back cast spells none stop since he has 6 Spells now.

New Animation for Enemy has been made. (Paralize Eyes)


My Main goal this week is completion of sackbots.

Anyway this is what im working towards I hope you guys approve.

Heh. When was this started lol (i read the conversation, psn was down, but that was way back in.. April right?) Anyways, it looks interesting, when you finish it, do you think i could test everything out? Seems fun! (by the way, i have never played FF LOL)

Some stuff was created before LBP2. Also after LBP2 was long testing period. You can play my Shinryu Level. That's what the system was like back in the day. Alot of stuff is still used from it such as the animations. Also alot has been added and tweaked over and over.

Launch update should be 4 more abilities/spells for each job on top of what it is now and have alot of the currect logic is going to be way more fast paced and placement and actions more important.

I been thinking of doing exp bonus and giving the players 3 HP bars to read 3 types damage types. Small,Major, Total HP. Like it takes 5 Melee points toget 1 Major point. Which will remove 5-10%HP.

Adding in more Counters and I can have everyone do damage with auto-attack more often. Also adding in more Counter Paths so when you level up you will switch HP paths and it will require more toget damage.

Sounds more complicated than what im doing XD

Also what are you doing?
Edit: Nice Zombie Island levels. I hope my game gets that kinda attention.

On another topic. Not much to show but this will be released with Update2. Field Area and still in small working progress.

Kolko Highlands 1

Sackbots is taking longtime...

Anyway this may take longer then I thought.

I just nearly finished Samaurai Job and its amazing tough. With the dds on Special,Hasso,Third Eye its at least gain 240% Boost to what it used to have. Everything so far job wise has been huge improvements on game play.
I changed how the following work to address gameplay and logic.

Sam Special- doesn't reset to full 3x in a row. Instead it lets you do 3 weapon skills without full TP needed.
Hasso- doesn't double the attack speed but it does instead double the TP gain rate for melee hits.
Third Eye- doesn't quite block the next physical attack but instead it blocks the next Attack and makes you Protected from Magical/Physical for 7secs after the first piece of damage and cures you for 1HP after that first hit.

Demon Circle isnt quite ready yet because we need to make a way to resist enemies.
Lucky this is more of a lv30 Ability and will not be used until then.


Extra Battle Animation has been added to Protect/Shell.
Also Hasso Animation has been made.

I must say, I've seen you working on this since back in april, and you seem really dedicated. This is some really great stuff. I dont play Final fantasy 11 or 14 anymore but this looks simply amazing. Keep up the great work.

If by "make a way to resist enemies" you mean make AI enemies run away from each other, I have a suggestion (if that's not what you mean, just disregard the next paragraph lol sorry).

Whatever activates demon circle could activate an emitter that puts out a hologram circle around the player with a tag/tags on it with the label "demon circle". Then on the enemy sackbots you could put a tag detector that only looks for the demon circle tag. That tag detector could then activate a behavior chip which would trigger the sackbots to either flee or act out a recorded animation you want to make of them running away. Importantly, you have to make the tag sensor concurrently activate a timer that will last as long as you want the animation to last. When the timer's done, it should re-activate the default behavior chip you have on the sackbot, to turn it back to normal once the animation is done.

I use that sort of trigger-animation-end-animation logic when I make fighting games all the time. If you press the kamehameha button, goku should pull his hands back and thrust them forward before shooting the blast, right?

Anyway sorry if I'm way off. Just wanted to give a suggestion. Also if you ever need help with the music for that game, just let me know. I love making music.

If you were talking to me about what im doing... well im trying to make sort of a 'turret defense' either that or multiplayer 1v1-3v1 or both. If 1 player, it will just be a survival, if multiplayer, i want to make it so the 1-3 players attacking can upgrade tanks to attack, and other stuff as well as the 1 player trying to defend the base with AI turrets etc. But it sounds like nothing compared to your level (1 reason is from the fact youve been working on this for... a year now??)

Its more for helping fighting demon type enemies. Each Job will get its own Resist Enemy Type in some way. Some Jobs will only be able to share there effects with other players.

WHM- Resist Undead
DRG- Resist Dragons
SAM- Resist Demons
BLM- Resist Arcana (Robots and such... Magic pots and Doll etc)

These skills will be pretty much useless near beginning of the game.

Thinking more of removing small amounts of TP over a period of time and adding a Slow effect towards Demons enemies around players with the active effect. This way players can rush a enemy without being too much in worry about causing a the enemy to unleash back to back damage with special attacks.

Also I need player feedback on this subject...

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ AND GIVE ME A ANSWER.

I BEEN THINKING ON HOW TO DO EXP IN THIS GAME AND MAIN QUESTION IS DO YOU GUYS WANT IT TO BE LONG OR SHORT?
DO YOU WANT MORE WAYS TO EXP THEN EXP PARTYS AND SOLO? THERE IS EXP OBJECTIVES I WILL WORK ON IF PLAYERS WANT MORE WAYS.

Field of Valor

Ask for # of enemy kills

Slay 5 Goblin Hunters
Slay 3 Tree Sapplings
Slay 2 Rock Lizards

Completed Objective= 1500 Bonus EXP

Total EXP= 2500

Can repeat this every 10mins

Yeah I would say its been a year or so. I also have real life and other games and such.
I wouldn't be totally focused on this project. I do have alot of stuff saved up. Lots of small things such as Objects, Anmations, Enemies, Field Areas. Most of it isnt even completed yet which is the problem. Also due to alot of changes I have to rechange the logic on the enemies and such.

I have a week off work right now which im spending on working on LBP and enjoying myself at home.
I lost 1 of my songs which im angry about. I also discovered a Japaness player that created alot of the songs I need. Problem is he isn't talking to me.

Its only me working on this project which is very tough due to theres alot I need done. Problem is mainly I need help making Content and Designing alot stuff. Each Level needs to display alot to keep the player from leaving.

If you guys want Help on your projects I only request 2 things from you.

One I will need your help on my project.
Two I need you to be a creative and know your way around LBP. (Need people to help me back and do a good job)

I been working on my level at a longtime and I know a lot about logic and designing and creating a game.

I have a question for you Venat...
Do player characters regenerate any bit of health while engaged in a battle (excluding the use of the healing Dragoon skill and so on) similar to the way monsters regenerate health at certain intervals.

Theres only really 2-4 ways you can actually heal yourself.

Cure spells- Will toss Cures to yourself and players for decent amount of HP.

Auto-Heal/Rest- This is active when your not near any enemies. Active if your outta Melee Attack Range. Mages will have this active all the time since they are ment to stand away from the enemy even during battle.

Evasion- When you dodge a PHY Damage attack you will heal yourself by 2HP. This is a very small chance and it really depends on your Job Since I set them at diffrent rates. This isn't the best way to heal yourself but it helps as a random factor during battle.

Whitemage Special- Will reset nearby players HP's to full right away.

Dragoon's Pet- Wyvern Healing Breath. Will Cure anyone right near the Pet. (Short Range)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANSWER:

Im not totally sure but there is extra active effects that turn on once requirements are filled. Such as having Dragoon's Pet out.
Whitemage has a small auto-heal boost that's alwas active I think that heals 1HP every 25secs.

Some enemies have extra features to do stuff that players cant do.

I made a game where skills & gameplay are important. If your not beating the levels that means your not at the best you can be or you don't know how to play the game correctly. Most of the levels aren't that tough, players can seem toget past any objective I throw at them if they take there time to complete them.

BIG IMPROVEMENTS...

New Sackbot Logic:

http://i9.lbp.me/img/ft/6099ed685ac3...e5aabdaefd.jpg

http://i4.lbp.me/img/ft/7a405c88edbe...06a80b06b2.jpg

All the new features I was talking about adding in are in. (Dragoon is still being worked on)

New Screenshot of Demon Circle:

http://i0.lbp.me/img/ft/590326ee5b56...a2215ebe0d.jpg

NEW ABILITY

Playing around with adding in another feature I discovered a way to give players another Ability.

New Ability- Dodge

This will be encluded as extra ability which will not be displayed on Menu. Such as Scan.
This will have its own READY On/Off display when players need to know when its fully recharged.

Using bottom right joystick moving it right or left will speed your movement letting you dodge incoming attacks.
Players will only be able to use this once every.... 1min. This effect will only be active for 0.2~0.4secs.

WEAPON EQUIP

Yes I said it you can EQUIP your own WEAPONS!!

Gathering Materials and doing events will earn you weapons.
Weapons will improve your DMG output. Each weapon gets its own Counter bar to add up Auto-Attacks. Less Auto attacks and more DMG= Better Weapon. Some weapons will give out illnesses such as poison to enemies.

Beginging of the level will have weapon switching section. If you have a weapon you want to change the one your holding will be destroyed.

http://i3.lbp.me/img/ft/413a2a22f4a4...e600233dec.jpg

lv30 Raptor Spear
lv40 Darksteel Spear
lv10 Ico Great Katana

WEAPON DISPLAY AND DIRECT AUTO-ATTACKING

With weapon equip system we can now display it during battle rather then emiting it as a action. Your weapon will follow you as you walk and it will point any direction and attack in battle.

http://i2.lbp.me/img/ft/282f903f0d71...e0b0a835ca.jpg

AMOUNT OF PLAYERS NEEDED TO PLAY THE GAME

Max Amount of players you will need will be 3. With all the features and improvements it will be harder to display a 4th player.

GAME RELEASE DATE

With extra features being added in it may take longer then end of DEC to release the game.

To do List...
6 Songs
Dragoon Logic (New Abilitys and such)
Create New Logic around Equiping weapons
Creating Equipment (List of weapons for everyone to obtain)
Creating 2 Field Areas (Area outside of Windurst)
Creating City Area
Creating Quests (Make about 10)
Creation of Currect Citys (Tweek currect aspects)
Enemy Logic overhall (This is quite a large job)
illness overhall (Alot of testing needed)
Testing all the Above

Hm, do you think i could see all your logic? :P

Sure just friend me.

I'm going to be showing off weapons from lv1 to lv50. Im still creating them so please hold on. I made a large number of them and I'm trying to keep them diffrent to each others. Some are just diffrent textures.
Trying to keep it 14~20 weapons per weapon type.
So that's 60 weapons...
I made quite few types of weapons before but most of them were weapons which cant be equiped with the currect jobs now. Funny thing is I cant make all the weapons look like amazing weapons because they have to look weak then get better as you level up. All the weapons have good detail reguardless.
Some Weapons you can only earn from Special Enemies or Gathering or Boss Battles. So its 10 Gathering Material Weapons and 10 Boss/Special Enemy weapons. The combo of material stickers needed to make a weapon will be like 2~4.

Earth Crystal+Copper Ore+Zinc Ore+Wooden Pole= Iron Spear
4 Material Stickers=1 Weapon Sticker

Those Materials are easy toget but later on it will get tougher. If you dont want to gather Materials can alwas try for the Special Enemies. It rewards better a weapon then the Material one at your currect level in the game. (Upgrade your weapon if battles are too tough)


The Ifrit Boss Rewards!

http://ib.lbp.me/img/ft/f8bc52d52fcb...ff1d44a412.jpg

Ifrits Great Katana
Ifrits Lance
Ifrits Staff
Ifrits Wand

This is coming on really well and as soon as it is released a MM pick should be imminent. :) keep working

All the Lancer weapons from lv1 to 40. Top weapon above will alwas be better then the one below it. Each one at its side will pass it in power. Bottom right of special weapons will alwas be better then Special weapon thats the weaker one.

Basically crafting weapons will be easyer to obatin but if you want to show off at your currect level you want the weapon above the bottom one.

Also as you can see theres no 2nd Special weapon is because from lv1 until lv10 you get a Special Weapon. So around lv5 theres no special weapons to gain. So Copper Spear will be your best weapon at lv5. Also the bottom left weapon is your weapon you will alwas have at every level until you equip the a better one to replace it.

http://ic.lbp.me/img/ft/67cc43689ea0...7421c191b4.jpg

Top Row are Special Weapons

Chrismas Tree Lance, Lizard Piercer, Sandorian Iron Lance, Battle Fork, Raptor Spear, Heavy lance, Wyvern Lance, Ifrit's spear

Bottom row is Crafted weapons

Harpoon, Copper Spear, Bone Spear, Iron Spear,Stone Splitter, Halberd, Champion's Lance,Platum. Battle Fork, Darksteel Spear

FFXIV song I want made to add in for Quest Battle Content

Currectly adding in 2-3 animations ways to auto-attack for every weapon. Stab, Downward Slash, Upward Slash.

They will randomly change anmations when auto-attacking. (This may take awhile due to bugs and programing the logic.)

When this is completed im going to redo the weapon skills.

Weapon Skills will perform new Sticker-Panel animations that look way better and im going to make the sackbot have more interaction with the attack.

While doing the Animation im going to block the movement of the sackbot-contronater movements and few other commands. Im also going to change how the main micochip that follows the sackbot and im turn off its follower for the complex animations.

So basically the Main Menu and all the important stuff will stay in one spot while the sackbot jumps in the air doing tricks and performing a animation. Afterwards he sackbot will return to its same spot and the logic will turn back on.

So basically doing a weapon skill will turn off the following or switch to another mode for a period.

"Notes: Turn off Controlnater follower, Monster tag follower, X button commands, R1 commands, L1 commands, L2 commands, bottom right & left joysticks, Menu follower, Leader micochip follower, Turn off actions for Abilitys & Spells, Turn off Auto-Attack.

Thus doing a weapon skill now will bind your logic and freeze you from movement. Basically you will get hit while doing a animation. Using an weapon skill will require timing.

Im also working on Weapons and I have "Clubs & Wands" nearly done. FFXI & FFXIV updates are out so that will slow my creation down. =(

Most likely I will multy task.

Need to Recreate this for LBP. May take awhile but will slowly come around Update3. Ifrit will be pushed back until Update5


Each Update will release 10 levels to level up to. Update1 lv1-10, Update2 1-20, Update3 1-30, Update4 30-40, Update5 40-50

Will try to release Update1 by JAN or FEB if problems or delays on projects happen. I have given people tasks and hopefully its completed before or within Jan.

(Some Weapons will be given Design changes since they dont differ from other weapon designs.)

I love the weapons but im not sure how the pickup system will work

Care too explain?

Ok First off Each Class will have a Basic Weapon Which is will be emited out until its changed. Which means when you start a level it will have it. This weapon is lv1 weapon and its starting off weapon.

As you play the game you will unlock Weapons which you can Switch to at beginning of Each Battle Type Level. Unlocking weapons: (Boss Fights, Quests, Special Enemies, Crafting/Gathering System)
You Basically earn "Weapon Stickers" which you can place at your Equipment Chest a new Weapon out. The weapon gets emited and it follows your Job Sackbot. If you want to change weapons the "Currect" Weapon you have out will be destroyed and the new one emited to replace it.
Right now there isn't any same Job set ups. DRG,DRG,DRG, etc. So cant only really use that 1 sticker once.

If you want to give other players equipment while within the Level you can. You will have the actual reward for the weapon the Sticker.
Players can also share Levels Up Stickers. By posting up your level and exp up until you level up and go to your progress Chest and Obatin your Next Level up Sticker.

Right now im thinking of adding limits on what job levels you can equip those Weapons. Such as Equipment Level requirements. This basically forces players to EXP if they want to unlock abilities and be able to equip weapons.

Right now I think I may not set a limit until the system is worked in well. This may make the game much better fast paced when players want to replay levels to EXP other jobs to max level. Such as Equiping a Lv50 Weapon at lv1 and doing crazy 1shot attacks and level up fast.'

I would also like to mention the Weapon logic im working on. There is a Damage Tree I have planed. Basically there will be 3-5 tiers of normal damage which will give more damage to your weapon without having it to emite 100 tags of damage inputs toget your bang.

1 Weak Attack
(Lv1-20)
2 Basic Attack
(Lv21-40)
3 Strong Attack
(Lv41-60)
4 Extreme Attack
(Lv61-80)
5 Amazing Attack
(81-99)

Each monster will have 5 Counter Bars and it will eat up Tag Inputs and feed it into 1 Damage Counter which will be Enemies HP.
This is where I can raise the stats of how DEF works on a Enemy by Raising the "Weak Attack" requirement to do Damage to a Enemy.

Heres basically how it will work

LV50 Ifrits Spear...

Sequincer: 5 StrongAttacks

LV1 Spear

Sequincer: 3 Weak Attack

Enemy Logic

Wasp lv1

WA 0/5 -May Take 10-20secs to kill at lv1
BA 0/2 -Near KO
SA 0/1 -KO
EA 0/1 -KO
AA 0/1 -KO

Bomb King lv10

WA 0/8
BA 0/4
SA 0/3
EA 0/2
AA 0/1

Bomb Queen lv75

WA 0/70
BA 0/50
SA 0/30
EA 0/15
AA 0/7

Shinryu Lv99

WA 0/100
BA 0/80
SA 0/50
EA 0/30
AA 0/15

Pretty much doing a attack with a Weak weapon will bring you down. Also like to mention you can normally get a weapon every 5 levels apart from each other. Some Weapons May do many types of Tag outputs at sametime to make slowly growing power.
