Fix Dragoon jumps

[Barboron]

Technically this wouldn't be an issue since you need a target for all jumps and you cant target through walls or get to places with no enemies on them. Exception would be elusive jump but this one could just be excluded from the changes and considering the horizontal movement of the animation, it wouldnt make sense anyhow for elusive jump to ignore terrain.

My point is still valid as what I had in mind when typing it is in dungeons. Tam-Tara has lots of low ceiling tunnels, there's also Haukke Manor, and areas around Eorzea this would apply to.

In old Final Fantasy games Dragoons traded invincibility for a turn though? I'm sure there can be some drawback to jumping that doesn't involve it becoming a get out of jail free card with no drawbacks?

Also, forgive the newbish question but couldn't it be made so that there's a Jump animation but the character is essentially separate from it? IE the animation is of you moving upwards, however the actual action is a second of invulnerability in which you simply do damage and 'reappear' where you started?

Just a thought as I was bored and reading.

I base the idea off another game I played ages ago in which the animation for a move called Rush employed the same tactic. It obviously has certain drawbacks like lag desync and other things my tired mind can't recall at the moment though.

also you eat all AoE even you are not walking on them.

Maths is correct in English as it's a plural noun for the mathematic disciplines (arithmetic, calculus, algebra, geometry etc). It's incorrect in American English however.

"There are logical arguments for both spellings. The word “mathematics” can be considered as a singular and as a plural noun. Both the Oxford and the Merriam-Webster dictionaries say the word is plural – hence the s on the end – but also that it is usually used as if it was a singular noun. So, most people would say “mathematics is my best subject” and not “mathematics are my best subject”. The shortened form “maths”, then, makes sense because the word is still a plural noun and so should still have the “s” on the end. On the other hand, it could be argued, “math” makes sense because it seems wrong to remove the letters “ematic” from the middle of the word and leave the final “s”."

Edit: In fact, The United States and Canada are the only English speaking countries that don't use Maths as opposed to Math.

I wasn't referring to the word 'math' or 'maths'.

So, because I don't care for your idea, that makes me a "retard" and that I did not study English? Christ, you can't take criticism at all.

Ok, fine, I'll break down your idea.
1) There is nothing wrong with being hit by AoEs. SE has discussed this.
How about you learn to pay attention and not use a Jump skill when an AoE is about to be used.

Learning fights is hard, right?

2) You do not get hit by AoE if you are jumping over them.

3) Your picture is completely wrong.
If there is an item in the way, or LoS is broken, you do not magically end up next to said item, you are returned to your original placement near instantly.

You are spouting bs, and calling me a "retard" simply because you can't handle simple criticism tells me all I need to know about you.

Good day.

I must say, while it would be ideal for dragoons to have Jump ignore terrain (or actually jump over stuff and have it be invulnerable to AoEs or avoid them altogether while the character is in the air) it would be pretty overpowered in the sense you could use Jump, Dragonfire Drive, and the stun jump (I can't remember the name) to avoid damage altogether.

As for it being a bug: it like isn't. It was most likely intended to avoid exploitation of the move in fights and to traverse areas (i.e. using elusive jump to get up to places you normally couldn't get to). As for Pyreflye's comment, I read it like it was in jest. This is the internet.

Yeah, I think that sums this up nicely. Bye now, have fun with your galaxy-sized blinders.
