[dev1206] The effects of Protect and Shell have been made mutually exclusive

[Nikita]

Afir, Aice, Alit, and Wall!

Ruse! Easy to dodge!

Forgive the FF1 reminiscing. FF names have changed over time. Where Pure became Antidote over to Poisona. Sometimes deliciously consolidated into Esuna. And Wall used to reduce magic damage, but then started reflecting spells and renamed Reflect. And Fast used to.only make you get more hits in one round of attacking. Then it became Haste where your turn came around faster instead of just more hits only.

I think some consolidation is ok.

Edit: Fog! That's what used to boost defense.

It's nice to see people that actually realize that Final Fantasy changes over time, it isn't the same game over and over. The people that claim that changes such as this are making it less of a Final Fantasy seem to be rather ignorant, and even though they claim to be the most hardcore of fans, they obviously haven't played many games in the series.

im wondering how many people consider FF MMOs to be cannon enough to be part of the changing process of things.
i mean sure things like naming has changed over time, but very modestly.
how long has poisona and esuna been around versus pure or antidote?
from FF7 onward, how much has the naming of spells and abilities happened? not saying i know because i wouldnt pay that much attention to them.
perhaps it would be better to call this spell something new or something that hasnt been used much in the series since its mechanic is very much its own.
