* [[Action Command]]: Rama / Deva Jin's stances and Burning Destroyer of Heaven extensions and Prime Knight Sieghart.
** Dio, Mari, and Zero as well.
** A special case applies for Rin: though she does have action commands, they only apply to her MP skills, and they cost one of her prayer symbols.
Line 43:
* [[Boom! Headshot!]]: Archer Lire's Skill Tree allows her to have this as a special move.
* [[Bottomless Pits]]: Jump quests, anyone?
* [[Bragging Rights Reward]]: PVP wins
* [[Breather Level]]: The Wyrm's Maw / Ignis Mountains. In between the annoyance that is Ashtaroth and the evil that is the Altar of (im)Balance, Ignis looks positively easy in comparison.
* [[Bribing Your Way to Victory]]: The Cash Shop
** {{spoiler|"I win, You Win"}}
*** {{spoiler|Dual boxing too.}}
Line 51:
** Some servers increased it to 2,999,999 GP (and 900 items).
** The GP cap was increased even further with the come of the new Season. 10,000,000 GP is kinda high.
* [[Cast Fromfrom Hit Points]]: Arme can sacrifice her health for mana if you decide to unlock the skill. How useful it is depends if you're in a dungeon or in PVP mode.
** HP potions recover more than MP potions, so it's a semi-viable quick MP gain in dungeons if you pop one after the ability.
* [[Charged Attack]]: The skills in the game.
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: Each playable character is assigned a different color, usually their hair color. Pretty much everything they wear will be that color. With some equipment sets, the only way to tell which character it is (besides looking at the weapon) is by color; this gets pretty annoying with Jin and Ryan, since the colors of many of their items are so similar (compare Jin's fiery red to Ryan's darker orange).
** The only exceptions to the "hair-color" rule are the white-haired Lass, the blonde Lire, and the sandy-blonde Zero (their color codes are light blue, verdant green, and meadow-green respectively).
** With 15 playable characters, similar shades are bound to happen.
* [[Combo Breaker]]: Getting hit while charging up a spell will cause your character to lose MP and immediately hit the ground. You can use this deliberately to escape most attacks.
* [[Critical Failure]]: Try to get a Wind Necklace or Guard Anklet from + 6 to + 9.
Line 62:
* [[Critical Existence Failure]]: Averted for players, as reaching 0 [[Hit Points]] puts you in Fatal and only an attack that knocks them down kills them. Played straight for mooks and bosses though.
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]: Almost every playable character.
** The exceptions are Lass, with white/black hair and blue eyes, Amy, with pink hair and brown eyes, Mari, who has blue and red [[Mismatched Eyes]] to go with her blue hair. Ley has pink hair with teal-green eyes, and Rin has white hair with blue eyes.
* [[Degraded Boss]]: Orc Warrior, (Dark) Gorgos, Troll, Lich, etc.
* [[Demonic Possession]]: {{spoiler|You face a [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] Lass before Kaze'Aaze's true form.}}
Line 76:
* [[Difficult but Awesome]]: Combat Alchemist Arme, Prime Knight Sieghart, and Rune Caster / Ether Tech Mari.
* [[Drop the Hammer]]: Anmon Guards.
** Also Mari's 3rd job. [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha AsA's|That hammer of hers looks awfully familiar...]]
* [[Dual-Wielding]]: Every MP character (Arme and Mari being the glaring exceptions) has at least one dual-wielding weapon job.
** Ronan is a strange case, as his Aegis Knight job has him use a sword and shield set and all his other jobs have him slashing with one hand and casting spells with the other.
Line 89:
** Also some jump quests in dungeons that have them (Battle for Bermesiah / Bermesiah's Last Stand has two particularly difficult ones). Season 4 may have lowered the difficulty somewhat, but BfB/BLS is still one difficult jump quest to do.
** Not to mention PVP's bugs prevent you from winning most of the time.
* [[Fake Longevity]]: Back in seasons 2 and 3, Character/Job Quests required an absurd amount of time and patience. 2nd jobs required you to collect 300 WHOPPING FRAGMENTS and 10 seals with low drop rates. 3rd jobs required 50 PVP wins (it's not easy considering the conditions listed below) and other collectibles with incredibly low drop rates, such as items that can only be collected via defeating a certain boss. And if it doesn't drop, you have to go through the dungeon AGAIN and AGAIN and AGAIN until you can get 3/10 of those items. (At least you can sell off the items you pick up.)
** [[Serial Escalation|And then there are the 3-part 4th job missions...]]
** Let's not forget Elena and those low upgrade rates for necklaces and anklets; you may end up burning over a thousand gems and still not get a +9 Necklace or Anklet. There's a reason dungeon players tend to wail on Elena/ {{spoiler|Kamiki}}.
Line 154:
* [[Loads and Loads of Loading]]: [[Justified Trope|Justified]] in the case.
** Almost completely eliminated since the third season.
* [[Luck-Based Mission]]: Every character/class change quest in the game.
** A good part of the 3rd Job quests require PVP wins.
** All of the 4th job quests do.
Line 181:
* [[Not Completely Useless]]: The Druid's Wolf Transformation is quite capable of destroying Lire players. Then there's the ability to lock a foe down by jump attacking between platforms, and you now have a [[Lethal Joke Character]] on your hands. The Skill Tree also gives the wolf form special moves.
* [[Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping]]: Lass sounds Australian sometimes.
** His 4th job has him sounding like [[Austin Powers]] with a little Aussie accent.
** Mari slips into this from time to time. (''"Nothing but fools hi-yah."'')
* [[Precision F-Strike]]: Back in Seasons 2 and 3, Elesis and Lire {{spoiler|when they see Amy for the first time in the Temple of Cuatal / Origins}}.
Line 204:
*** Actually, if you turn Item mode on where the status originally comes from, the effect slows down every character except for the user, giving the backwards effect that the user is moving faster than the other players (since it would obviously be harder if the player sped up in a game that requires precision)
** Finally are attacks that completely Stun. Even Super Armored enemies who normally don't flinch from attacks. The duration tends to be extremely short.
* [[Stripperiffic]]: Ley. So very much. Amy also qualifies in some of her official art, but she seems to be meant as more "cute" than "sexy."
** Any character (yes, even the ''men'') with the right choice of armor can easily be made into this.
* [[Summon Magic]]: Arc Breath and Lord of Valhalla; some jobs' skill trees allow you to do this too.
