Icarus's blog: "Augurs, Martyrs, and Agnostics"

I just smacked my own mouth and guffawed.

In Dragon Warrior III there's a wizard class

physically weak, magically strong

and at level 37 he gets a spell called "transform"

transform apparently gives you the same attack power, defense (which are dependant on equipment) and stats as another member of your party of your choice

Well I have a sage (healer/wizard hybrid that learns both schools of spells) that has a physically weak sword equipped called the "Falcon Sword" that allows the user to hit twice (and I must reiterate- the sword is VERY weak, like... without the ability to hit twice, it'd have the same attack modifier as a level 1 sword, I'm around level 40)

Well I was playing around

had my sage cast transform into my hero (main character special class)

and he has... absurd stats all over the board

and he's wearing some end game super unique equipment

the sword of kings

radiant armor

shield of heroes

etc

so... he's a walking tank with a sword that rips the heavens

so my sage transforms into my ultratwink hero

and the next round he attacks

twice.

... the falcon sword's ability carried over >>

along with the attack and stat raise from the transform spell.

That was a silly amount of damage...

Now if only I had a way to cast bi-kill (double attack power) on my transformed sage for double silly damage.

I could reset my job classes, and teach my pilgrim to cast wizard spells, but it'd take another 10 hours+ of leveling or I could change my goofoff into a sage and get her to learn it.

I don't think that will be necessary.
