Gameplay

A new battle available in Golorock Mountain with Rufflection, the boss of the map! You can fight him again afterwards, but there will be no pixel animation for him in this build.

----------

Battle changes

Rufflection, the Golorock Mountain boss!

There is a new boss inside Golorock Mountain. At the start of the battle he summons a pair of hands that attack for him! Killing a hand will turn them off for a few turns before Rufflection summons them again.

The hands will do additional things at the end of the turn, which will be indicated by the background switching directions and moving faster!

The Red Hand

The Red Hand’s job is to give Rufflection Barrier and Reflect states which cause counter-attacks if hit by physical or magical attacks!

At the end of each turn, the Red Hand casts Barrier or Reflect (switches every turn), which will give that state to Rufflection.

When hit, Barrier makes physical attacks to cause-counter attacks. Reflect works with magical attacks instead.

Counter attacks hit all of your party members. Without Barrier and Reflect on Rufflection, no counter-attacks happen.

During the normal turn, Red Hand uses “Physical Attack”, that deals physical damage to a random target from your party.

The Blue Hand

The Blue Hand’s job is to protect Rufflection from different elements.

At the end of each turn, the Blue Hand casts Elemulti Absorb, which will give Rufflection elemental barriers, which absorb all elemental damage from 3 random elements!

The elements he can absorb are Fire, Water, Thunder, Wind, Ice, and Earth.

Without an elemental absorption barriers, Rufflection is weak to all the same 6 elements.

During the normal turn, Blue Hand uses “Magical Attack”, that deals magical damage to a random target from your party.

Rufflection

Rufflection will use “Crystal Bite” skill and summon hands that have been defeated after a delay!

During the normal turn, Rufflection uses “Crystal Bite” dealing Earth damage to the highest %HP target and lowers their DEF and M.DEF for 3 turns.

Once a hand has been gone for 2 turns, Rufflection will resummon it at the end of the turn. It won’t attack when summoned, but will do its end of turn buffs!

----------

Skills

ACT skills against Rufflection!

All of the fight’s ACT skills require you to have beaten his hands. There is thankfully a ACT skill that lets you delay the resummoning of the hands!

Distract

Disctract Rufflection, delaying his “Summon A Hand” skill by a turn. Other successful ACT skills summon back both hands.

This is useful for stalling, until you have both of his hands gone and you get to use the other ACT skills.

You Dropped Something!

Tell Rufflection that he dropped something. Requires an unobstructed, direct line of sight to Rufflection.

Both hands need to be gone for this to be successful.

Will cause Rufflection to turn around and transform into a new sprite!

His ATK and MAG, both will be decreased by 5.

Bu*t Slap

Slap Rufflection's big cheeks! Requires an unobstructed, clear view of his cheeks.

Both hands need to be gone for this to be successful.

He needs to be turned around for this to be successful.

Will cause Rufflection to turn back around and transform into a new sprite!

His ATK and MAG, both will be decreased by 5, (10 from original stats).

Smooch

Give Ruffy a smooch. Requires an unobstructed, direct line of sight and a cute expression on Rufflection!

Both hands need to be gone for this to be successful.

He needs to be blushing for this to be successful.

Will cause Rufflection to transform into a new sprite!

Will cause massive damage on Rufflection and end the fight!

Layout

I made the entrance in the first island Beach Cave where you find the Rubyro orb a bit more noticeable and enticing. I think the whole quest line to get to the dungeons is so easy to miss, I’m trying to find ways to make the player notice things towards it.

----------

Story

There are new story scenes inside Golorock Mountain.

One happens the moment you enter the mountain.

Another one is before you enter the last chamber

The last one is when you meet Rufflection.

----------

The fight with Rufflection has story stuff and reactions!

----------

I added new orcs inside Golorock Mountain you can talk to.

----------

You can talk to Professor Eron at the entrance of the Golorock Forest before heading inside the mountain. He will give you some consumables to help with the battles in the mountain.

You will miss those consumables if you beat Rufflection, his dialogue will change if you beat him.

----------

Items

----------

-No new items in this build

------Bugfixes------

Wulfrick’s toy is now listed correctly in his Quest.
