    Since no one seems to have posted yet: Final LB fight

    The final limit break does consist of a battle. Apparently a party battle, not solo (image in my mind of the release of the Fellow NPC and the line forming to do the fight for it haunts my mind, so this is a good thing).

    Since I and many others just used the test moogle to raise our jobs to 99, we couldn't do the quest, but some people thought ahead (thank you) and did the quest.

    There is a video, and I take no credit for it. Just posting it here since people seemed to want to know about it in advance really badly last time and because none of the people that collect the most detailed information about stuff (e.g. by reading the dats) ever posts their info here.

    edit: video code was disabled in the forum naintenance. THANK YOU SE!

    Edit: Can only 3 people enter?

    Is it really a Taru?

    Can I be more disappointed?

    I believe it's actually Maat's master and the same taru involved in the black belt quest so it does make sense that he is worthy of a party fight and not a solo battle.

It encourages you to explore the whole breadth of content rather than asking you to bumrush and bypass all the old content just so you can grind the newer content. This is a model used by other MMOs such as WoW, and while I don't have anything against people that enjoy this model, if I wanted to play an MMO with that model there are many, many games vast superior to XI in terms of mechanics and especially customer service that offer such a model.

    A friend told me it was a 6 man max; I can't verify this for myself, again, because I can't do the quest due to using the GM moogle.

    Is it really a Taru?
    Yes
    Can I be more disappointed?
    Thanks for asking for permission. Yes, you may.

    Edit: apparently changing the topic in the original post doesn't change the topic title in the thread list.

    If I had to guess I would say it will be maat style if you try to solo it.

    Difficulty could be adjusted depending on how many there is. Also it says 6 man entry in the video. 15 minutes to win. I'm guessing the difficulty on test server is for test purposes. Just remember it's the test server. Test server data doesn't mean it's a sure thing.

    Also, something being on the actual server means people will be more likely to use full equipment swaps and food and whatnot. There are tons of reasons that it is very hard to gauge how difficult something will be based on reports from the test server.

    I loved Grandia but I haven't played any of the sequels. Particularly, I liked most elements of the battle system and that the protagonists actually acted like kids rather than cardboard cut-outs who were just there to hold up swords and progress a plot. I'm also looking for some single-player RPGs to play while stuck recovering from a surgery.

    Based on these things, should I look into Grandia II?
