Yes he did. I even asked via PM. I wanted to clarify the rules regarding Pokebrid when I was pondering which classes I would branch out to.
Fair enough.

Excellent. Otherwise, their power is the same as if it was a slayer weapon.
Like I said, bullshit.

Mud Shot and Mud Bomb was a bad example.

I dunno if there are any, but say there are two Physical moves of the same type. Both have different power and have a chance to cause different status effects.

You're telling me you'd pick the one with the least power, even if the status effect it could cause is better?

Fuck no, because like I said, the chance to cause status effects is negligible when it comes to pokemon moves. You don't take it consideration.

And when you pick your three moves of that type to power up, are you really going to pick the one with the least power over the one with more?

That doesn't make sense. You said:

Well, that is more or less true with some moves, but some moves have different effects that could be terribly useful.
You were referring to moves that have different effects. And saying that those effects could be useful, see above for my thoughts on that.

And if the power isn't equal, hmm? Which would you pick?

PS: Geminex, when you said this:

Wrong, actually. I meant that we'd get to customize once our characters went past level 5. Even if their 6th level is one in Slayer, they'd get to customize. The other way'd be sorta retarded, really. It'd whale on multi-classers, for real this time.
You meant that we'd start as soon as we reach level 5 (after this mission), or after level 5, that is, starting at level 6 (after Pierce's sidequest)?
