INCAP love [DEV1027]

[Arcell]

Since reviving old threads seems to be a trend right now, I'm bringing this one back.

We absolutely need further use of the Incapacitation system. It was awesome in Monster Hunter and it can be amazing here. This is one system that could really make boss fights more interesting and it helps with class diversity. C'mon devs, don't forget about this system, it can be used to make some very unique fights.

I just posted about this also.... The incap system fitting into the new BR that is coming back....
I really do feel like it will be awesome....

Also, Arcell... what about compound incaps?
Like you need to break the left arm of some MOB to break the shield before you can incap the head?

Also the idea of magic palings that need to be taken down would be really cool...
It would give the game a more epic offline RPG feel

Battle Regimen would be a good place to fit an incap, could even combine that with the compound incap idea.

Compound incaps would be good alone too. They could do a lot with that with the legs. Bring down the legs to gain access to an area that can be incapped.

We really need incaps that are visual and practical. Taking out armor pieces to lower defense, damaging limbs to lock out abilities or lower damage or AoE range from certain skills, breaking claws/weapons to lower damage or accuracy, etc... They could really do a ton with the system. Also more incaps that stay through the entire fight would be nice, I hear it's pretty useless on Chimera because they can regenerate.

My friend... I wish you were moving to Excalibur

"Know thy foe, know thy quarry"

-.- I wish a job would get scan, theres not enough info on the wikis and such to know everything about how to combat monsters. Most of us are essentially working on guess and check fighting.

thats a GREAT idea.... there was something about a monster Bestiary too... where the more of a MOB you killed... the more info got filled in on the bestiary
Scan could even make it so the info filled in even faster
I'd even be ok with only 1 job getting scan... but everyone in the party benefiting from it
Or materia that increased scan rate

I'm fine with 1 job making the whole team benefit too. I'd say give it to SCH, make SCH into what it SHOULD be. (with increased item potential, and sub access to conjury and thaumaturgy)

Either that or be able to meld a "sensor" to your weapon like customization in FFX

Bestiary would be great to release in a patch with SCH at that!

Here's to hoping the mods pass this on to Akihiko Matsui
