The Official Final Fantasy X-2 Rumble!! (MA)

**Zak** · 04-09-2008, 04:38 PM

Thanks, Agent, for approving. ([Agent-- You're welcome!)I noticed that there hasn't been one in this forum for a while, there was one about half a year ago that died while they were doing "Missions".

Also this is my first one, but don't worry guys, I know what I'm doing.

Also, I plan on updating every 2-3 days, and if I don't it means my computer broke down or I'm on vacation, but I rarely ever take vacations. (Agent0042: I'll be updating for the time being...)

But I'll start by letting you guys choose the category, here are some suggestions (but please, not Missions this time)

-Monsters
-Bosses (It's hard to differentiate between Monsters and Bosses because once you're in Via Infinito, monsters like Boris are about as boss-like as a Divebeak. But monsters like Boris, either of the Eaters, Zalamander, etc may be included in Monster AND/OR Boss rumbles. After all, there are some monsters that aren't bosses, and there are some bosses that aren't monsters, like the Experiment or Angra Mainyuu)
-Monster SPECIES. That would solve all the Monster/Boss problems, and there are a whole lot of those, Lizards, Imps, Ruminants, Eaters, Scorpions... and so forth. Plus if it IS a monster rumble it would seem odd including, say, two different Lizards, because one would more likely win. But then again some people vote based on looks, so it would be fair.
-Garment Grids
-Music
-Dresspheres (preferrably not because there are too few and I remember it being done)
-Spheres. As in, the ones on Shinra's viewer-thing. Yeah, there are only 16 or 18 but it's an original idea. I'm sure not everyone remembers what's on each Crimson Sphere, but I'd be saying in the description whenever they're up.
-NPCs. Either that or just characters in general because only three people aren't NPCs and it wouldn't hurt to include them. Yuna probably wouldn't last long anyway, but I can't say for sure.
-Accessories
-Anything else you guys can think of that I haven't suggested. Just throwing out ideas here!

Also, be sure to always bold your votes. It makes it hard to count them. You probably will still be counted if you don't bold, but if an individual user starts developing a habit of not bolding I may start skipping them, or to make things easier be banned from participating. 4-0 is a blowout condition.

Current Edition - Stay tuned...

**RikkuYunaRinoa** · 04-09-2008, 04:45 PM

Nice one Zak. Good job.

I will go for Bosses

Also, i like the idea of spheres. The ones you find on your way through the game could work well. Like, if which ones people found funniest or the most interesting.

Goren · 04-09-2008, 06:12 PM

I'll go with Bosses

**Erebus Wraith** · 04-09-2008, 06:20 PM

That's pretty cool that Agent let ya have a X-2 Rumble. I always enjoy a good Rumble.

I think Bosses would be a fun one.

**Zak** · 04-09-2008, 07:07 PM

Hmm, seems pretty one sided. I know it's only three votes, but I actually changed my mind about waiting 'till tomorrow, don't wanna take too long before the first rumble. I think I'll just go with bosses. Plus this is only the first one. (don't worry, I won't be this impatient in the actual rumble, I will wait two days. Hah.)

I'm gonna go ahead and start compiling the list, but to be fair I'll keep the voting open until the list is ready just in case more people who prefer a different option somehow come. But don't worry for the next rumble I'll give more time to pick the category.

So, it'll start soon, maybe later tonight or tomorrow.

**Zak** · 04-09-2008, 07:46 PM

Alright, here's what's going to happen. I'm going to start things a little differently:

I counted 42 things that can qualify for bosses (even in the littlest way, like monsters encounterable in Via as well as some people. Though I didn't have Elder Drake or Mega Tonberry since I wouldn't call them bosses) in this game and made a list. Since that'll already be odd after splitting it in half after the the first round, I'm only gonna cut the list down to 40, because that at least divides by 8 and we won't have to worry about odd-ness until we're down to five, and I have a plan for that.

However, instead of letting some randomizer decide which two I should eliminate, I have a way to let you guys decide.

So, WITHOUT showing you guys the list, I'm gonna give two days, and you guys are gonna name only two bosses in the whole game that you do not want included.

Remember, a boss can be anything from an oversoulable monster fought in an even to a specific character you fight to just a boss in general. So, whatever you name it'll probably be on my list. Just any two you can think of that you don't want included.

~Zak

**Agent0042** · 04-09-2008, 08:15 PM

If you don't show us the list, you're going to get a whole lot less action. I'm having trouble coming up with any that I really wanna see eliminated that quickly off the cuff.

**Zak** · 04-09-2008, 08:22 PM

Hmm... okay. It's true that it's probably easier to choose voting FOR one right off the cuff than against. I just kinda thought it would be interesting to see what people would come up with solely from memory.

But anyway, here's the list, in order of game appearance. The order in which they'll fight is another story.

And a note: Bosses like Leblanc, Baralai, etc. are going to be counted once for all the times you fight them.

1. Leblanc
2. Ormi
3. Logos
4. Boris
5. Flame Dragon
6. Guardian Beast
7. YSLS-ZERO
8. Chocobo Eater
9. Elma
10. Georapella
11. Precepts Guard
12. Baralai
13. Dark Bahamut
14. Dark Yojimbo
15. Garik
16. Dark Valefor
17. Dark Ifrit
18. Dark Ixion
19. Zalamander
20. Anything Eater
21. King VERMIN!
22. Aranea
23. Black Elemental
24. Concherer
25. Chac
26. Paragon
27. Trema
28. Lucil
29. Rikku
30. Paine
31. Nooj
32. Gippal
33. Experiment
34. Humbaba
35. Machina Panzer
36. Jumbo Cactuar
37. Angra Mainyu
38. Dark Shiva
39. Magus Sisters
40. Dark Anima
41. Vegnagun
42. Shuyin

Choose 2 to kill. I'll place my vote later.

Alright, now the wheels should get turning.

**Agent0042** · 04-09-2008, 09:26 PM

Right, that's easier. Kill YSLS-ZERO - machina enemies were generally annoying and lame to fight. I'll also put a kill on the Black Elemental, which just got on my nerves.

**Erebus Wraith** · 04-09-2008, 10:50 PM

Jumbo Cactuar I just remember hating the fight with him.

YSLS-ZERO for the same reason as Agent

**Zak** · 04-09-2008, 11:00 PM

Alright I will choose to kill Aranea because if there's any speceis of only two we don't need both of it's the Scorpions, and Boris was the FIRST boss fight.
And Dark Valefor just so we'll be one aeon down.

**RikkuYunaRinoa** · 04-10-2008, 12:53 AM

YSLS-ZERO

Baralai

**Pos** · 04-10-2008, 05:30 AM

Aranea and Ormi Stupid fat bastard, He annoyed me so much.

**Sobye** · 04-10-2008, 01:04 PM

YSLS-ZERO and King VERMIN.

**Slavka** · 04-10-2008, 02:47 PM

YSLS-ZERO and Elma

Machina bosses are lame, and Elma went down in like two hits.

J. Peterman · 04-11-2008, 07:46 AM

i read thee title as yuna is a sex slave

**Zak** · 04-11-2008, 11:41 AM

Mmm...

So, it appears as though YSLS-ZERO, despite holding the honor of ending a chapter, is having technical problems functioning and decides to sit this one out.

Just as they're about to start, Aranea gets so excited that it accidentally tangles itself up in it's own string. Clumsy bug, looks like it won't be rumbling today.

So, time to start (my first rumble battle ever):

Round 1 - Battle 1

Guardian Beast

Our first FFX-reincarnated sprite boss, except this time fought near the beginning at a relatively low level. Guards half a sphere in Zanarkand, and has a pretty cool death sequence rather than simply pyreflies later in Via Infinito.
"Do we need a password? How about 'kick it's ass'."

VS.

Concherer

About 10 times the level of Guardian Beast, this fiend is actually good old Grand Maester Mika himself reincarnated. A real challenging fiend, and despite looking like FFX's Neslug, is completely different and way stronger. Can the Guardian Beast take him?

Note: Like in Ceidwad's FFXII rumble, 8-0 will end a round.

Goren · 04-11-2008, 12:48 PM

Guardian Beast

**Agent0042** · 04-11-2008, 12:55 PM

Mrm... yeah, Guardian Beast.

**Harkus** · 04-11-2008, 01:22 PM

Woah you get to fight mika in this game? I don't remember that. Anyway on topic my vote is going for Guardian Beast

**Ceidwad** · 04-11-2008, 01:32 PM

Guardian Beast, since I never really could get into FFX-2's plethora of hidden bosses. Expect to see me voting for a lot of the mandatory fights, if they get paired up against an optional battle.

Also, are there no plans for a characters rumble, Zak? (you can wait til the end of the round to answer this, obviously.)
