Also, stuff like EX Trance/Bursts are delegated to something you equip that has a huge cooldown time, last I heard.
If it's the same as the Arcade version I played in Japan, this is true. Characters with Trance and EX modes can equip them as one of their 4(?) Abilities they can use in combat that have a cooldown. You can change and customise these up a fair bit but each character has one ability only they can choose.

I played Firion almost exclusively but for the life of me I couldn't figure out what his did. :doh:

according to this his ex skill (blood weapon) increases his movement speed for a while and makes all his attacks absorb hp

i like the look of the summon battles, that seems interesting. i'm still not super happy about the sound of 'unlocking' the story but maybe that 'story trial' stuff will be more of a traditional story mode than unlocking little scenes if you get an item.

Much ty Hito. They had a laminated set of binded cards with each character's info (identical to what you linked) but I'm no good with moon runes. :(

I still haven't found all those Tetsuya Nomura arts of the Dissidia NT characters, if anyone wants to link me to them all? (I might make another "Tree of Fate" later, who knows?)

Does anyone know what the "Battle of Gods" Arcade event was about? Squeenix said they're thinking of doing "something else instead" for the Console version.

Also, Season Pass suggests 6 characters beyond current roster.


If I get Gilgamesh, I'll be happy, but who else you think?

The season pass 6 are being teased now. They are mostly new to the series, with 2 being villains. One villain is returning.

We know nothing else, other than hero or villain.

I’m not correct. I was going by what’s in the live chat. Here’s what reddit says:
1) Male. Newcomer. (Later game)

2) Male. Newcomer. (Earlier game)

3) Female. Newcomer. (Later game)

4) Male. Newcomer. (Later game)

5) Female. Veteran. (Later game)

6) Male. Newcomer. (Later game)

Early game FF1-7 later 8-15. So the villain i thought was returning must actually be Yuna or Prishe. I thought blue was hero and red was villain when it was male and female.

The first new male is supposedly a ‘bad guy’.

Really want to get this edition. Just don't think I can justify it, even with the season pass included. I'm probably going to just go with the pre-order from GameStop.

Anybody else getting this one?

My guesses on the first 6 Season Pass Dissidia NT characters (based on the info released):
-New Male, FF8-15: Ardyn
-New Male, FF1-7: Zack (and if not him either Locke, Edgar, Setzer, or Vincent)
-New Female, FF8-15: Rinoa/Garnet/Ashe/Fran/Serah/Fang
-New Male, FF8-15: Caius
-Returning Female, FF8-15: Yuna
-New Male, FF8-15: Wild Card (could be Seifer, Vivi, Auron, a FF11 character/villain, Balthier or Vayne, Sahz or Snow, a FFXIV character/villain, or even another chocobro)

EDIT: Though if the new/old spilt is instead referring to the 2D/3D split instead of mathematical splits/halves, I could see Aerith being the new female character.

I'm still hoping for Reno, Zack and Vincent for the new male characters for the game, but sadly Reno's not happening.

I'd like either Serah or Ashe as the new females, though.

According to that thread on reddit, it's implied that any game that has 3 reps already will not have a new rep in the season pass. Which means that only FFI-3,5,6,9,11-15 will be represented outside of the veteran, making them close to even.

My guess is:
Caius/Ardyn/Seifer
Minwu/Locke
Fang/Vanille
Prompto/Gladio/Ignis
Yuna/Prishe
Balthier/Auron

Yuna/Prishe are the only ones we know for definite. I can't think of any other "bad guys" from VIII-XV. Nomura really wants Minwu, Locke and Auron were in that drama, and they said they wanted more XIII characters as well.

Beatrix is an option.

Other bad guys I can think of from VIII-XV.

VIII: Seifer.

IX: Beatrix, or maybe have Captain Steiner(AKA: Rusty) against Zidane.

X: Seymour.

XI: No idea.

XII: The guy who appeared in 012 Dissidia.

XIII Trilogy: Caius.

XIV: Ascians.

XV: Ravus and/or Ardyn.

Gabranth? If there was a returning male character, they'd probably say so like the female character. Laguna isn't being mentioned for the same reason.

Yeah, Gabranth, and good point, because they haven't mentioned Tifa either.

Male. Newcomer. (Later game) [I want Caius Ballad... just because he's Lightning's best foil.]

Male. Newcomer. (Earlier game) [Red Mage, Minwu, or Shadow]

Red Mage because

Female. Newcomer. (Later game) [Fang or Quistis]

Male. Newcomer. (Later game) [Balthier or possibly Ardyn]

Female. Veteran. (Later game) [Prishe as she has plot relevance.]

Male. Newcomer. (Later game) [Seifer, Noel, Baasch, or Auron]

I will be pissed off if Prishe comes in over Tifa or Yuna.

I'd rather Tifa and Yuna to both return since there are three FF 4 characters(Cecil, Kain and Golbez) and only two of the rest of the nine from the first game.

I say Prishe because of her connections to WoL and
Shinryu
.

And let's face it: she had better combos than Tifa AND she uses strong AoE Magic.

They just posted on Facebook that you don’t need PS+ for the beta, but you DO need it to play online in the full game.

It starts at 14:00 utc tomorrow. No word on when you can start downloading.

It’s available from Midnight in your time zone, so it’s out in eu now. It doesn’t appear on search, it’s under featured. It’s 18gb.
