Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

ಠ_ಠ

Happy Birthday! However it will be short lived when I cut you down for abusing my country!

Psh.
I was thinking if Sagi managed to get his "country"'s flag added even though they lost they're war, shouldn't I be able to get a confederate flag added?
It only makes sense, both "countries" lost their wars for independence.

Damn, Vyre. Thanks for that. I was wondering what the difference was between the 1, 2 and 3 attacks were.

And oh yes, Yellow is strong to green, green is strong to yellow. Red is strong to blue and blue is strong to red. White is strong to black and black is strong to white. All elements are a dualism.

Blehg

Happy B-day Uri... I have a question for you....

LOL anook

And oh yeah Mag, the element of your character will effect melee strength. I.E. Serge is white, so he can really lay down the law with blacks.

Oh and about leveling up. You get a star/level for every major boss the game decides is major. Then inbetween stars if you fight enough random encounters, generally around 7 or so, you get delicious stat ups. If you get the next star before that point, you get jipped.

That sounded so bad when I read it. XP

Wth game ya talking about?

happy bday uri!

Sweet baby Jesus! Apparently my phone is ***! My mom showed up an hour ago "unannounced" as far as I knew. GDI! I've been hemorrhaging money like no other these past three months! This day started out so good, and went to ***real quick!

/panic attack!!!

Oh! I guess the word is out Uri. LOL!

I wonder how that happened... /snort!

At least you have money to hemorrhage :<

In a nutshell you're given a stamina bar that typically goes up to 7 points. Which you can allocate into attacks either light (using the least stamina), medium, or heavy (uses the most stamina) attacks or you can choose to use up all of your stamina to cast an elemental, which essentially is your magic. You can however if so desired use up a handful of attacks and with whatever leftover stamina cast a spell. However, that will bring you into the negative stamina which simply means you won't make a full recovery of stamina upon your next turn.

Now, elements are odd because they function much like items that you simply keep forever, but unfortunately are equipable only to one person per element you have. So if you wanted everyone to cast a particular spell, you'd need 3 of them. There are also consumable elements mainly to heal and rid status ailments, and those function identical to items in that they're consumable, but function just like regular spell casting.

On the right right corner you'll notice the color field. With each elemental casting, the center field will change color based on the element of the spell you cast. The more of a particular color or element that takes up the field, the stronger that element will become. If all 3 are of the same color then you will be allowed to cast a summon of that element which you receive later in the game.
It's also worth noting that each character has their own elemental affinity. This simply points out what type of magic the character is strongest with; and consequently, what they're weak against as well since each has their own weakness and strength.

Chrono Cross is interesting in that you essentially cannot grind to level up as your progress in strength lies within defeating a boss, therefore moving forward in the story, and keeps things relatively challenging. As long as you maintain your stock of items, elements and improve your weapons and armor at the given opportunities, you should do just fine. Battle system aside, CC is one of the most astonishingly impressive games I've ever played.

Again I say, catch sick.

Also if you haven't already, please finish Chrono Trigger first.
After all, Cross is the sequel to it.

One word..."Mom"! That's enough to ruin my day.

Well don't worry you won't be hearing that word for a while....just your mom bugging you about no grandchildren.
/hides

Yeah, I've beaten Trigger a couple times in the past. I have them both on my PS3, actually. From what I hear though, this is mostly a loosely based sequel, only alluding to certain things from the previous game.

Hold on...Wait a minute...I see what you're saying, Yomi.

/snickers

Three people in CA, OH, and TX are trollfacin' like nobody's business.

Oh hey, a blood dragon at level 9.

What the ***, I keep getting "DNS server failed to load" message on every website but this one.

Havin' a bad day Vyre?
lol

LOL I was wondering when you were going to catch on. :P I like how he's being mean to me, when I was the one who saved him! Gosh.

(edit, I also like how I'm talking about him like he won't read this! /skips through Narnia with joy)

Lol I remember chrono cross.. Took me forever to relize you needed to do an exact elemental casting order on a boss in order to even open the area for the final fight -,- ***Soooo annoyed me and sorry mag Idr wtf it is

There are many things especially near the end that won't make much sense unless you've played and beaten Trigger in it's entirety. Especially when you get to the Lost Sea and whatnot.
