Farewell Battle Regimens

Goodbye Battle Regimens. We <3ed you.

http://vimeo.com/29953457

It's been a long and storied relationship.

We got stuck in you for minutes at a time during launch
You laughed at us when our attacks missed and you failed to give us the effect we sought
We spent hours together on the Lodestone tutorials trying to figure out what weapon skill pushed your buttons
You gave us thrilling 2k magic bursts when we least expected it
You let us stack our debuffs, Regimen of Ruin, Regimen of Trauma
You came to the rescue in the Batraal fight, helping us knock him down in the last 30 seconds with 2 or 3 well placed stacks

We will miss you.

Battle Regimen Farewell Party tonight

R.I.P ,May one day you be reborn in a more advanced style.

I'm glad that horrible icon has gone it was big and ugly. I'm sure they will make a better system eventually.

WTB Chrono Trigger combos!

Glad someone made the farewell video.

I didn't have time this time around. =(

Good riddance to a well-intentioned but horribly flawed gameplay mechanic. May a decent battle system rise from its ashes.

BR, I shall miss you! You were not so bad in the end once you were fixed.

May Ifrit burn you for Eternity Battle Regimen system..

Poop system of the game doing skillchains for you.

Perfect for a poop game.

IF it hadnt been for battle regimens we wouldn't have been able to recover from a terrible dungeon speed run and kill batraal in 3 minutes causing the person that was supposed to get the templars falchion to crash out of the game during the batraal cut scene allowing me to take it instead. For that, I thank you battle regimens. On the other hand, I wasted 4k company seals yesterday on that uldahn butter knife about 4 hours before I got the falchion, so thats crap. Do you know how many fireworks I could have bought with that many seals?

Or how many crafting/gathering EXP manuals?

SWEET JESUS.

Battle Regimens, you helped to make great eft parties become awesome eft parties.

You will be missed.

...Battle what mode?

...are...are you telling me I've been playing through this whole game without utilizing one of it's main features?
Why didn't I know about this?!
I thought that design thing on the action bar was just for show!
Oh my GOD!

I'll be glad when it's gone, makes room for a much more responsive system.

Not that anyone's coming, but I probably won't be online til a few hours later. We should get off a few final battle regimens.
