Talk:Abilities (KHII)

Growth Abilities
Since we're doing a list of all abilities, I'm going to separate the Growth abilities as well. However, I only have the descriptions for Level 1 and Level 2, and I'm obviously not going to play the game again for different text. Does anyone have a save in which they have the Level 1/2 Growth abilities, or know of a video that shows the description? Glorious  CHAOS!  03:38, December 15, 2009 (UTC)

Questions
I don't like the translation for Simba's "Fierce Claw", but "Fiercely Crow" makes no sense, even if it is closer to the pronunciation.

Should it be "Earthshaker" or "Earth Shaker"? Glorious  CHAOS!  06:14, January 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * also, I am uncertain about "Second Chance" and "Once More". Glorious  CHAOS!  07:09, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

Original game descriptions
Should we record them for posterity? 21:53, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Which ones? If it's the KHIIFM ones, weren't the old ones fan-translations? If it's that KHIIHD gave out different descriptions for abilities that were released in the international version of KHII, then I think they should be kept. 23:53, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

It's the latter; there's nothing we can do about the Final Mix ones. The question is, what is the best way to save them? Mouse-hover text? -- 00:15, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * For Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX, we simply added "HD 1.5 ReMIX" to journal entries that changed for Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. I think we should do the same with these abilities. 00:18, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

I have no idea what you mean by that. -- 05:48, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * When they changed the journal entries for Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days in HD 1.5 ReMIX, we preserved the original entry from the original release by keeping it, adding "HD 1.5 ReMIX", and then adding the new entry (See Roxas, for example). I think we should do the same: list the original entry, and then below that, put "HD 2.5 ReMIX" and then put the new entry. 06:00, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

That wasn't really a replacement, per se. Also, this table is not a good place for that, in my opinion. -- 07:08, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Zeldawiki has this triforce symbol they use for notes, which incorporates hover text. We could perhaps use a crown-symbol along similar lines? 16:17, 17 December 2014 (UTC)


 * That's easy enough to do. So, for example:
 * Increases damage done with fire-based attacks by 20%. Equip more to increase the effect. Symbol - Crown.png
 * Or something like that? -- 17:16, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

Why can't we just do this: 17:56, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * To my understanding, the abilities do the same thing, the description has just been clarified. 20:41, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

Equipment Abilities
We need an explanation on what an Equipment Ability is somewhere on this page, with a redirect. 18:23, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

Anti Glide
I'm pretty uncomfortable with listing this here when the game doesn't officially recognize it as an ability. Do we have an Ultimania listing to support it? 18:44, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Kind of. It is listed as one of AntiForm's "basic skills" (基本技), but it's not part of the actual list of abilities, and obviously that means it's not really a Growth Ability. -- 20:38, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Do basic skills include stuff like Valor Form's V-slash combo, etc.? If so, I would suggest Anti Glide get merged into Anti Form, as part of its basic mechanics, and removed from here. 20:40, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
 * In most cases, basic skills are basically any weapon attack that is not tied to an ability. For most Drive Forms, that's all of the basic, non-finisher attacks. So yeah, probably it shouldn't be here. -- 21:56, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
