    I switched my party to

    edea ninja/spell fencer
    tiz arcanist/black mage or swordmaster
    agnes vampire/summoner
    ringabel spirit master/performer

    and people saying magic isn't any good don't know what they are talking about

    What's the best way to grind and get Sweeper bonuses again, prior to having the final job? I know chapter 5+ outside Florem is the best, but what's the most recommended combo there?

    Crescent Moon I guess? There are some job-specific combos I could do like Free Lunch + Firaga, Fire Sword + Crescent Moon, but I want to train up all the jobs, so I need to kill everyone at once using only one job worth of skills.

    This works well for me:
    Give somebody the Summoner ability with the "No MP cost when under 20% HP" passive from Red Mage + the "+50% more magic damage when MP ends in 0" passive from the Arcanist. Stick those on a fast character & drain their MP to 0 and lower their HP to under 20%. Have somebody else with the Knight's "Protect allies under 20% HP" just in case an enemy acts before you do. Spam summons - usually you can wipe out the entire enemy party on turn 1 with ease.

    Oh yeah, great idea. Didn't think about passives!

    I don't think magic is bad, but some aspects of it are annoying.

    I don't like how in Final Fantasy some elements are always kind of the red headed stepchild. Earth, wind, light and darkness usually don't get the full range of spells, and they're spread out on other mages besides black. When enemies run the full gamut of weaknesses in a game like this, it makes it frustrating to try to target all of them. And even when I notice some enemy is weak to holy and try it out with my white magic caster, it ends up being hardly better than regular attacking. But that's without having tried to stack up magic power and such...

    I dunno, sometimes it's nice to take the easy way out and power through with regular attacks.

    natural talent + crescent moon would be my recommendation, or to wait off on hardcore grinding before you have the final class b/c it makes it super ez.

    Shameful pursuits and utterly stupid opinions

    It's not that magic isn't any good, rather it's just that dark knights are absurdly good.

    How does breaking the damage cap work with sending attacks?

    If you Bravely Second you can break the damage cap. So you just Bravely Second and then send that attack and it will break the damage cap.

    Will it break the damage cap on the other end, or do they need to Bravely Second for that as well?

    Haha, some of these party conversations:
    Tiz: Hey Agnes, isn't Auto Aspir Blade great? You can alternate between magic and attacking and never worry about MP.
    Agnes: I... guess so?
    Tiz: And Edea, you could Brave and change your spell and attack in one turn! Spell Fencers are great!
    Edea: Why are you telling us now?
    Tiz: ...Um... Ringabel, you said to say all that to convince them to get into those skimpy outfits, but they're not going for it. What do you want me to say now?
    Ringabel: ...!
    Edea: Yeah, what should you say now?!

    Ok, one shiny new SD card later and I'm downloading.

    And am reminded how much I hate downloading from the eShop.

    "YAY! You're downloading something! Watch this cute animation!"
    "Right... but how fast is it downloading?"
    "Watch the cute animation!"
    "...so like can I get an estimate of how long this is gonna ta"

    You know what the thing about Behemoths was in the old Final Fantasies, where they'd counter your every attack? I hated them, but they didn't attack in gangs of three

    Oh my god what do they want from me?

    "Random encounter with two Cerberi" is proving to be the most challenging battle in the game by far. Vampire Mansion is the worst place on Earth.

    Maybe I could, like...
    Make the whole party Valkyries with Two-Handed/Confuse Immunity/Default Guard/Slow Parry, wearing fire resistance, with Sword Magic as a secondary, and then default into Drain Sword > High Jump?

    Or possibly
    give up the notion of conventional warfare entirely and commit utterly to some sort of ridiculous Arcanist shenanigans?

    I really don't want to have to level Black Magic for this. Maybe Convergent summons would be good? I have no goddamn clue where the mana would come from, though. You can't even drain mana off these sons of bitches without getting one-shotted.

    I feel like seeing the box fill up is a pretty good approximation.

    However I basically never download anything like that anymore. I always choose download later, and go back to the main menu and close the system. You can open it any time and check the exact percentage that's been downloaded, and be all "oh it's been 5 minutes and it's 50% downloaded," etc.
