I love these videos cause this game literally cannot age I swear. As for the cup of life reaction ability, I found it turns your priest and chemists into monster healers. Keeping a priest far from battle and just spamming heals on themselves with chakra as a support ability will just constantly have your team topped off. Tho by the time u get this ability the arithmetik ability is far superior. But yeah food for thought.
Thanks for checking out the series, VC! 🙏 Completely agree, this game has aged like wine AND on the Arithmetician reaction abilities in general. Soulbind is amazing for tanky, high-HP characters, and Cup of Life is amazing on lower-HP healers exactly in the way you mentioned. The issue I have with CoL is that you cannot trigger it on yourself, so you will always need someone dedicated to providing the healing to the unit with CoL equipped, basically requiring TWO healers. Using elemental absorption and offensive elemental magicks will usually get you there. 👍
grat video bro, im so happy to see my comment, the first time i used a black mage with arithmetics and see i could cast flare, in the SAME turn and MP FREE, and kill EVERYONE in the map, was a blowmind, then i used and reset the game XD
YES! I will always remember my first time using a Calculator (the original Job name 🤣) and didn't understand how it worked. When it finally clicked a dark grin started creeping across my face when I realized the true potential! 😈
For weapon, the bag with +1 speed or even the ones with regen/MA feel more helpful, and you can also use barrette if you play female magic character ( can also be used on Reis if you wish to use her dragonkin job and arithmetician as secondary job ). Nice guide btw. Is there a discord channel, or forum to find players for coop/pvp?
Hi there, thanks for stopping by and the suggestion for gear! I hang out in the Tactics League discord server (un: Mikey_TacticsLive), there are very knowledgeable players in there. You can probably find a person to get a match in with, link below: discord.gg/2mmr4vzMRj
Ive used cup of life on my tank so when they are healed the access goes to the melee near them it also acts as a multi heal for the lower spells if you can hit over the hp threshold
Everytime i build mage+arith i feel like i have a demigod in my team. Using Holy heal my team and kill half of enemy team instanteneously is risiculous.
Ah yes, the 400 IQ class, interesting concept, but i´m definitely not going to use it. The last thing i want to do while playing is math. Cool video though, now i finally know how these guys work.
Haha, yes! This guy maths! ☝ It really is the reward for taking the time to learn the abilities and slog through arguably the worst primary Job in the game. So go ahead, make that sandwich and put the game on autopilot; you earned it! 😉
That's probably the best way to go about grinding out JP with such low Speed - get a recurring action going that doesn't rely on anything more than staying in a corner and waiting! 🧠
CT stands for Charge Time. The lower the CT in the skill/spell menu, the faster they'll activate. That's why spells like cure and fire have very low CT and heavy spells like Meteor are very high. You can gain a further advantage with swiftness. It cuts CT for spells in half. It also affects turn order as previously mentioned by @Tacticslive Manipulation of CT is very important, especially early on when you don't have great gear, etc. It can mean the difference between Victory and Game Over in some instances.
Wasn’t expecting a 2022 video on this. Well put together.. .replaying after twenty years.
Thanks so much, and welcome back into the game! 🙌
Thanks for taking the time to make these videos! I was so lost with this class up until now.
Thanks for checking out the content Malia, very happy I could help! 🙌

@@TacticsLive ahhhh really? I swore I could do it on myself but yeah now that u say that whomp whomp whomp lol
You really need to use tailwind to keep up with the speed. Arithmeticians are really slow just to try grinding them.
Agreed, anything to squeeze another action into your turn sequence! Also worth it to slow the enemy down so you get more actions. 👍

I love the vídeos jobs focus, is my favorite playlist 😎

@@TacticsLive Thx, I'll go check that :)
Thank you Mikey! It was very easy to understand, excellent explanations! :DDD
You're very welcome! Thanks for checking out the content! 🙏
When grinding these guys, I always deploy 3 time mages with high zodiac synergy. Haste + Quick is essential!
Wow that's dedication! Amazing idea, though it reinforces how much work goes into getting these units into a playable state.

Cup of Life is amazing IMO, it's a shame it's locked within the Arithmetician job because it suits tanks so well. 🥲
Everytime i build mage+arith i feel like i have a demigod in my team.
Using Holy heal my team and kill half of enemy team instanteneously is risiculous.
Doesn't it just make it all worth it? 😆

A video on ONION KNIGHT
Get a gang of Arithmetician.
Set their CPU to whatever suits your need.
Enter a battle.
Go make a sandwich.
Return to victory screen.

Great game great explanation
Thank you so much for checking out the content, and happy you find value out of the information! 👋
Do you have a video for the samurai
Hi there Jon, yes there is a Samurai Job Focus episode available. Thanks for checking out the channel! 🙌
dammit now I want to start a new generic and call them Death Star 🤣😂😓😎
Haha you get a big stamp of approval from me! 🏆
I use sing or dance to get jp faster for my arithnetician.
The grind is terrible

Lol what is CT never even noticed it before
It's the measurement to determine which unit goes next. When a unit's CT reaches 100 (75 with Haste) the unit goes. 👍
CT stands for Charge Time.
The lower the CT in the skill/spell menu, the faster they'll activate. That's why spells like cure and fire have very low CT and heavy spells like Meteor are very high. You can gain a further advantage with swiftness. It cuts CT for spells in half.
It also affects turn order as previously mentioned by @Tacticslive
Manipulation of CT is very important, especially early on when you don't have great gear, etc. It can mean the difference between Victory and Game Over in some instances.
My ramza could solo a team of these.
i hate this class so much.
😂 Learn what you can and get out!!
