Perish song?

[Eurgh]

Does anybody know how to make a perish song like attack? 

Basically, perish song is an attack which when activated gives a time limit of 3 turns before it kills both of the battlers.

Wrong forum.  Also, I have no clue how to make that attack.

I've moved this thread to VX Ace Support. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.

I imagine you'd have to set a state which lasts for 3 turns, then have something triggered when that state is removed, that will do the damage.  That might need resorting to scripts.

Only way I can think to do this is to try and to some tricky stuff with common events and states, but it'd take a bit of time to get it just right. I just tried to figure it out, but I wasn't totally sure how to do it. 

I suppose you could make a state that removes 25% of their health over four turns or something?

I guess, but at the same time. If you think about it, that only works if they have 100% health and don't heal. Which is why i haven't done that

Hmm... Maybe something with common events and variables then? I'm not sure.

If it's on an enemy:

-Make a skill Perish Song that does nothing.

-When the enemy uses Perish Song, turn Switch ON.

-Under Troops, Battle Event, make a new page that triggers under the Condition When the end of the turn.

-Conditional branch if Switch is ON: Add +1 to Variable.

-Conditional branch if Variable is equal to 3: Change State: Add Death. Change Enemy state: Add Death. Set Variable to 0.

If it's on an actor, make Perish Song trigger a common event that turns ON.
