Yep, yep. Running's lame.

Despite having drawn Thief, I'm paranoid about running in my early game in case I draw a Knight on Random (which is certainly a possibility).
I'm in the middle of a Comprehensive Jobs "max achievement" run where I'm pursuing the Brave Blade. Just about to raid Exdeath's castle in World 2 on that one.

This isn't really helping with people mistaking you for Red Scarlet.

White Mage motherfuckers! I might actually finish my run this year!

White Mage for, what's it been now, the third time (out of four)? As always, it's nice to have a healer throughout the game and a heavy-hitter in the late-game.

Do they really do that? D:
The biggest issue with not running is dealing with the monsters in Walse Castle's basement in World 1. You can get some useful stuff down there, but those demons are simply designed to be run away from. Last year I got Knight and did a no-run go, and I had to reset until I was able to get in and out without a random battle. I think I actually beat one of the those monsters once? It wasn't even polite enough to give me any experience.
Yuck, didn't know that. Guess it's something to think about it, maybe do some more research. Thanks.
If you're playing the gba version you could cheat with the quick save abuse I guess
Update Time!
Same as it ever was.
Annoying boss with a Thief run, considering you only have two weapons at this time.
Spent a while farming Daggers, then leveled everyone to level 10 (lots of ABP here).
Party of level 10 Thieves laugh off Siren. She didn't even get a hit in, and died to the first potion in her undead phase.
Ready for North Mountain, to pick up some sunglasses (oh, and a dragon).

Using SFC cart, so that's not an option. :/ Maybe grinding would help, or I could just skip it and come back later?

I got white mage/mystic knight/bard/dancer. Never used dancer before.
You could come back later I guess, the best thing out of there is an Elven Mantle, not sure what else is particularly noteworthy.
My second job is Berserker, as always. I HATE the water crystal and its damned red mages and berserkers. There are other jobs!
The worst thing is that my practice team was Thief, Berserker, Geomancer and Samurai and I don't like where this is going...
The first two bosses:

Plick, plick, plick.

Literally every single Random-Berserker Risk player that pestered Gilgabot for their draw early has a 2nd Berserker nesting in their Earth Crystal spot.
That's enough evidence to force me to remain in suspense. It's not like my next job is going to be a surprise at all. I just don't want that second one.

More.
Managed to kill Magissa right after she summoned Forza; had I not healed Lenna's poison, she wouldn't have summoned him at all. She wasn't able to get Regen on him, though.
Stole a full compliment of Mythril Daggers, and fough Ricard Mages until I reached level 12 (actually got 6 Flame Rods in the process, $). Wailed on Garula until he started counterattacking, then put 3 in the back row for healing and 1 in the front for attacking. Standard Thief tactics.
And now the long nightmare begins. I have my first Berserker.

They have a good synergy but in the early game they're a bummer.
Completely forgot about the site!
And my first job is... White mage! Should makes things easy I guess but won't synergise well with my berserkers.
Second time I've gotten a white Mage whereas I've never gotten blue Mage, thief nor black Mage oh well
Had them twice last year and sort of agree. Thief is already the most annoying beginning but Berserker adds some much needed offense. They can also get in the way of hi potion stealing though and if you get Geomancer for your third then Sandworm is not going to be fun at all!
Dat Axe formula. Live by it. Die by it.
Finally something to get me to stop playing Tomodachi Life!
So, not gonna lie, I abused the auto-battle feature present in the ios version at first. Figured I'd blow through the first boss before I had to worry about paying attention
I figured wrong. Totally forgot about the counterattack when this thing turtles down. Did it always do that?
Whatever. I reload and pay attention this time.
That's more like if. So what's up for me me first this year, gilgabot?
God damn it Gilgabot. You had one job. One job!
Sure I'll be glad for white mage later on but it's gonna suck for the next little while.

It's easy. Three berserkers using your best axe will rip him to shreds. Heal with thief.

Now we're doing Knight/Berserker/Freelancer/Freelancer.
Praying to Gilgabot that I don't get another berserker

And I have Monk this year. Last year was Knight, and the year before was Thief.
You know Gilgabot, I wouldn't mind actually using a Wind crystal mage for once... Maybe I'll do a #750 run after this for a change of pace. Also, my brother wants to put in a request to stop giving him Red Mage every time.

That combo would be great for a normal run. Natural Run, the wasted potential is frustrating.
Well, magissa got my white mages good, drain just anahileted me.
Not even silence could save me
Edit: second time is the charm, had some bad luck with lots of missed silences and annoying aeras

After you get to each other crystal tweet @ff5fotfortunes and include #water , #fire and #earth after each respective crystal

Looking back in my previous runs, I've had Knight in each of them, too.
