Hey.
I have a poison state (like most games), and it does a reasonable amount of damage to normal enemies. But against bosses, it deals far too much damage. If I decreased the damage done from the state, however, the normal enemies would take too little damage. Does anybody know how I could get around this?

script to use formulas for DoT damage. or have it apply a different version of poison to bosses. ie. it applies 2 states with same chance, but bosses immune to 1 and normal enemies are immune to the other.

I think a script can be made to do this if there isn't one already. or you could apply a parameter to the bosses where they are resistant to poison by 50% or whatever. Cutting the damage in half. Since it's a 15% damage over time effect.

Just did some searching. Victor Sant Custom Slip Damage can do what you want.

I used a script by Yanfly to make my Poisons do slip damage based on the MAT of the person who applied it. I found this was better for balancing as now it will do the same damage over time each turn to all enemies until you increase your MAT stat.

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
