FF6 - Brave New World

very possibly having Cyan's magical Bushidos run off of stamina.

Not going to lie, at this point I've been wrong on nearly half of the Bushidos, as far as what they use to determine damage or effectiveness. I would recommend adding a "relevent stat" column to the printme, to help avoid confusion (Would also help with some of the Tools and Blitzes).

• Speaking of Cyan, a few of his Bushidos will probably be getting power boosts (namely Tempest, Eclipse, and/or Flurry).

I was actually alright with Eclipse's base damage, mostly because I wasn't increasing anything but Vigor on Cyan but it was still dealing acceptable (Though not great) damage when I needed a reliable full-party smack. But, if Tempest/Flurry are getting buffed, then Eclipse could use one as well I suppose.

• Enemy steals have been updated again in the hopes of making it a more attractive ability, and I'd also like to tweak the formula to slightly raise its baseline success rate.

I had no issues with the success rate, mostly thanks to having Thief Glove on Locke from Zozo on; Mug gives me two shots to steal so even if I missed on the first try (Which was uncommon in and of itself), it was rare to miss on the second. Though if you're trying to encourage using Switchblade steals rather than defaulting to Locke, it might not be a terrible idea.

• The Atma/Omega Weapon formula may be tweaked somewhat to make it a less nerfed weapon given the lower levels in this mod; it will lose its back-row capabilities and evasion bonuses to compensate.

Not sure how I feel about this one. Yeah, the damage on auto-attacks is pretty poor (Not awful, I could get 1200 a hit with Celes endgame in the back row, which was about par with VigorShadow's Fight in back row), but the main advantage of Omega over Zantetsuken was being such a great stat stick along with back row functionality.

• Storm will now target all enemies instead of everyone so that it'll be less shitty and actually worth casting.

• The Palidor summon will be reworked into massive *physical* damage since its current effect is kind of crappy and opens up a *lot* of bug possibilities.

I like both of these changes; Storm made the Flan rage all but useless (Which is a shame because everything else on it was great), while Palidor was either useless or obscenely overpowered depending on how physically oriented your party was.

Control will be going bye-bye since it's a crappy skill that is crappy; the Coronet and Dancho Doll will be reworked into something else.

No tears here, that's for sure. Even though I used it briefly near the end of the game, it takes away all functionality of your primary healer in order to dish out only halfway decent damage.

• I'm thinking about having Shuriken be free-targeting, which gives Shadow an early/cheap MT option that shouldn't be too OP since the damage should still split (I've yet to test this).

• The magicite item is really crappy, and I've been thinking about ways to make it more useful for a long time now; I'm curious if there's a way/if it would be a good idea to have it summon the character's currently-equipped esper rather than a random one.

Shurikens being free-targeting would be nice (Does this include Ninja Star, or just base Shuriken?), though I'm worried that the game might crap itself trying to do the animation for that. Would make Shadow more useful in the Imperial base for sure, possibly worth picking up for Zozo too.

Magicite being based on currently equipped summon could be problematic, since it would make it much easier to get Shell/Rerise on everyone during the tougher boss fights since Magicite isn't a rarity by endgame (I had about a dozen when I finished, plus 7-8 items in my inventory I could trade for it, and I only stole from 2 dragons at best). Or, on the offensive side, give me free Ragnarok/Crusader/Bahamut spam during the endgame bosses, making it easy to cheese them if I horde the item all game long.
