I'm looking for a way to make an attack that only damages one enemy, but puts an effect on all the enemies on the screen during battle. I haven't been able to find a way to do this on here yet.

Could you force action to call a secondary skill that does no damage but applies the effect to all?

The only way I could see this working would be with a plug-in, like Moghunter's "attack chain" script. Is that what you had in mind?

No, you don't need a plugin.  You could try something like this:


Create a skill which does nothing except call a Common Event.  This is the skill which will show up in the character's skill list.


Create another skill which inflicts the damage you want to one enemy


Create a State which inflicts the status you want with the scope set to all enemies.


Your common event uses the 'Force Action' command from tab 3 of the Event Command Menu


Force action on the 'real' skill


Force action of the state.

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
