Is anyone else having trouble with MSN?

It's probably just this cursed computer.

Nope each of the bosses abilities, either Blood Suck or Death have a 100% chance of hitting each time

Geez i wish this was on an emulator and i could just save the game before i try to steal the item then just keep resetting until i get it :-D

Managed to steal his Masamune and Genji Shield so at least i'm getting a little further

If the system's based on the game equivalent of random dice rolls at some point they'll probably miss enough for you to steal all the armour with no problems.

So if it is like that then you have to play the battle a fair few times to see if it'll work.

// Get ZAxis (direction vector) from position delta

D3DXVECTOR3 ZAxis = D3DXVECTOR3( m_Position - m_PrevPosition);
m_ZAxis = GetNormalized(ZAxis);


//- Gramm-Schmidt Method
//NewY-Axis = OldY-Axis - NewZ-Axis*(NewZ-Axis dot OldY-Axis)

D3DXVECTOR3 YAxis;
YAxis = m_YAxis - m_ZAxis * (DotProduct(m_ZAxis , m_YAxis));
YAxis = GetNormalized(YAxis);

// Get XAxis by crossing ZAxis with resulting YAxis
D3DXVECTOR3 XAxis = CrossProduct( YAxis , m_ZAxis );



m_XAxis = GetNormalized(XAxis);
m_YAxis = YAxis;

//build axis matrix

D3DXMatrixIdentity(&m_AxisMatrix);

m_AxisMatrix._11 = m_XAxis.x;
m_AxisMatrix._12 = m_XAxis.y;

The more it's idle, the more processing it gets done. So erm... don't use your pc.

That's an interesting battle scenario/thingy there. Unfortunately, I've gone off RPGs and can't help. awwww

Good good. Well i haven't got a problem with the battle itself, if i wanted to i could wipe out the 3 bosses before they've even had a turn, i'm after the main boss' equipment which is causing me the problems.

The most important thing to mention is the main boss has an ability called Blood Suck which turns whichever character he attacks into a vampire and therefore i can't use that one anymore. Now i'm allowed 5 characters out on the map but i only have 3 items that will cancel the blood suck command and because i'm dumb and all my save files start at the first battle in the castle i can't go back to a town and buy some for the entire team.

Now i want to steal all 5 pieces of his equipment as it's some of the best in the game, unfortunately each item only has around 10% chance of being stolen each time so it will take me lots of turns to get it all. The trouble is there's always one person who gets turned into a vampire and ends up killing the boss before i get chance to steal it all.

I need 5 characters out there otherwise his two friends who have a death command will end up wiping out a couple of my characters but it's because of this that means one of them ends up as the vampire.

Any ideas how i can form my party to kill the two sub bosses in one round (usually takes 2 or 3 characters to hit them to kill them) and protect myself from the status element i get afflicted with for long enough so i can steal the equipment
