Line 1: Line 1:
-=====TwinCast===== 
-The Twin action is broken into three parts: 
  
-==== 1. The Twin command ==== 
-  * The player chooses the "Twin" command on character (A) 
-  * Twin is queued on that character, with a delay of 0 
-  * When the pointer comes back around to that character, "Twin" executes: 
-    - Their partner (B) is chosen 
-      * In FF4FE, if there is more than one potential partner, they are chosen at random from the available twins((Ignoring anyone with Swoon, Stone, Paralyze, Sleep, Charm, Berserk, or Stop status)) 
-      * If there are no other twins who are able to cast, Twin fails 
-    - The "TwinCast" command is queued on both twins, with a delay equal to character (A)'s relative agility divided by 2((Rounded down, with a minimum of 1)) 
-      * The same Action Timer delay is used for both twins 
-==== 2. The TwinCast command ==== 
-  * If the partner already had a command queued, it is replaced with this 
-  * TwinCast will execute when the pointer reaches one of the partnered twins and their delay timer has expired 
-    * Which twin this will be is highly dependent on the ATB situation 
-    * Since both twins have the same timer, if they are in consecutive slots, the twin in the earlier slot will (almost?) always be the one to execute TwinCast 
-  * Both twins will start a casting animation 
-  * The twin who executes TwinCast will queue either Flare (75%) or Comet (25%)((And a 1/256 chance to fail outright)). This twin's Wisdom stat will be used to calculate damage 
-  * Their partner will simply get a Wait command 
-==== 3. The spell (Flare or Comet) ==== 
-  * Works like a normal spell cast at this point, queued and executed by the twin who executed TwinCast, and using their Wisdom stat for damage
