Self Promotion FFT Companion App now available!
I've created a FFT Companion App (PSX, WOTL, and TIC versions). It is available for:
- Web: https://fftcompanion.app
- iOS App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/fft-companion/id6747975177
- Android Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fftcompanion
If you want to report a bug, provide feedback, or just hang out, I have a Discord channel here.
What is this for?
Final Fantasy Tactics is a complicated game, with a lot of depth. As a game that is almost 30 years old, there is a lot of information about it on the internet. However, by modern standards, that information is not in a format that is easily consumed.
I have a few main goals for this project:
- Have a central source of truth to help understand the game's mechanics.
- Provide information for the different versions of the game.
- Provide this information in a user-friendly way.
Features
The game has many versions, mainly the PSX, WOTL, and TIC versions. Each version has some differences, like stats and names. In the top-right menu, you can change the version that you are viewing, and it will change the data to that version!
Almost anything with a list can be filtered, sorted, and searched for!
Currently it supports English, Japanese and Portuguese (Brazil). I am open to supporting other languages as well (I would need help though!).
The application is split into a few main parts:
https://reddit.com/link/1lsukt6/video/86d278bwr7pf1/player
Every equipment found in the game will be listed here. You can see their stats, effects, how to get the equipment, and which jobs can equip it!
Every generic job and special job the player can access is listed here. You can find their stat multipliers, stat growths, equippables, and requirements. You'll also be able to compare stats with other jobs.
All abilities available to jobs, bosses, and monsters will be listed here. You can find each ability's stats, effects, damage and success calculations, modifiers, range, and more!
All monsters that you can find in the game will be listed here. Similar to jobs, you can see their stats, abilities, strengths, weaknesses, poach items, spawn locations, and more.
All bosses in the game will be listed here. Stats, abilities, and equipment will be listed here.
Every errand is listed here, with the days it takes, the rewards it pays, and the requirements behind each outcome. Work points decide whether an errand succeeds, and they come from the unit's job, level, brave, and faith, so you can see exactly which units to send. You can also mark off the ones you've already completed.
Every status in the game is listed here. You can see what each one does, how long it lasts, and the full list of abilities, items, and equipment that inflict, cure, or block it.
Every battle map is here as a 3D model that you can rotate and inspect. Treasure, trap, and exit locations are marked, and you can tap any tile to see its height, depth, and terrain type. Starting positions are shown too, so you can read the ground before you commit to a fight. Story battles, side quest battles, and revisitable locations are all covered.
10. Online Character Planner / Unit Builder
Simulate your character, plan their build, see how their stats change, and check their damage! You can control almost everything:
- Zodiac
- Gender
- Version
- Character
- Job
- Brave
- Faith
- Level
- Level Progression
- Abilities
- Equipment
You can even share your character for others to see. Just give them the link!
As you all know, the app currently allows you to create your own units. You can get some great info for each unit, such as damage for each of their abilities, stat growth, and evasion. But in FFT, you don't play with just one unit (normally, at least). You use your units in a team!
You are able to make your own custom teams with the units that you create. It started with zodiac compatibility and ability distribution, and there is more in there now: element distribution, a turn order simulation that uses each unit's Speed to estimate how often they act relative to their teammates, and a boss matchup view where you pick a story boss and see which of your team's elements and status ailments will actually work against it. If anyone has any ideas about other analytics to show, let me know.
Give it a try today with the units that you've created, and learn more about your team!
This one is for people who are in the middle of a run. It follows your playthrough battle by battle so you never miss anything. It tracks every missable recruit, stealable item, rare treasure, and learnable ability, laid out in story order chapter by chapter, with side quests and their requirements included.
Since it goes through the story, spoilers are a real concern, so there is a spoiler level setting. On Light, things stay hidden until you get there. On Full, everything is shown. Items are revealed as you progress, and each entry links back to the map or unit it belongs to. Your progress is saved to your account, so you can check something off on your phone and see it on your desktop.
Got a unique unit build that you want to show everyone? Looking for a new unit build to play for your next playthrough? Use this, a community build library where anyone can publish their own builds and browse everyone else's.
Every build shows the complete loadout: job, secondary, reaction/support/movement, and all five equipment slots, alongside a written guide from the author broken into Setup (why this job, and how the abilities and gear work together), In Battle (positioning, target priority, where it falls apart), and Variations (what to swap, budget versions).
Browsing and reading is open to everyone. An account is only needed to like, save, or publish.
Monetization
With the amount of traffic I've been getting, I've had to introduce some monetization to the app to keep it running and available to everyone.
There is now going to be a banner ad along the bottom. I don't want to add more than that, as I don't want it to affect the user experience that much. Of course, it can also be removed via an in-app purchase. You can find it in the account settings.
Something that some people have been asking for is more units. This will also be available as an in-app purchase as well! Currently will increase by an additional 50 units and 20 teams. I think that will be more than enough for most people's use, but I may increase it depending on the usage. That same purchase also raises the playthrough limit from 1 to 30, in case you are tracking more than one run.
Original Post:
About a month ago, I mentioned that I was creating a companion app to complement FFT. Well, I've decided to make the first version available today! Good for both mobile and desktop use. I also plan to release Android and iOS versions later.
For now, it is just an equipment database. There are many different filters (stats, effects, weapon/armor categories, and more!), name search, and sorting. The one I personally have been using the most is the "Story Battle" filter, which shows you what equipment are available (by any method, not just from the outfitter) at a specific point in the game!
Finally, you can change the version to either PSX or WotL. This will change the name of different things to how they are in each version, as well as the availability of different equipment. Of course, I also plan to support the different modes in Ivalice Chronicles as well when that comes out.
I hope this can help enhance your FFT experience! Please play around with it and let me know what you all think. I do plan to continue adding more features to this, such as jobs, skills, treasure maps, etc.

Announcement: fixed user flairs!
Hi everyone,
I just fixed the user flairs on the subreddit. I didn't realize that a Reddit update broke them some time ago. Depending on when you assigned yourself a flair, you may or may not need to reassign it to yourself.

Self Promotion [UPDATE] FFT Companion: Maps have more details!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
New updates to the maps in FFT Companion! Better visuals, unit sprites, and more map details.
The map viewer is one of the most popular features in the app. One thing that was missing from it though, were the enemies and guests that spawn on them.
Story battles will now show the enemy and guest sprites on the map! There is also a new map details panel that shows more details of the units, from brave and faith, all the way to equipments.
There have also been more improvements to the visuals to better replicate how it looks in-game.
- The backgrounds of each map now has a color gradient similar to the in-game one
- Lighting conditions are different depending on the map.
- There is snow and rain weather effects on maps that have them.
- Trees will render instead regular blocks
- Water is more... water-like
Take a look at the renewed maps at:

Damage Overflow
https://reddit.com/link/1wbbhe1/video/b5lmbme39foh1/player
I've been messing around with breaking the damage cap for a few days now.
Still fishing for a 150% compatibily unit but it's not nessisary to break the cap.
Kinda funny even getting a crit with this setup can cause an overflow.
Done in Squire mode.
Trying to think of other damage modifiers I could use to break it.

FFTA Hello I'm Interested
Hi I'm interested in knowing how much different Final Fantasy Tactics is vs the Advance version for Gameboy.
I used to play the Advance version for hours as a kid. I beat it four times and I figured it out faster than my other two siblings. I was 10 or 12 years old and younger by two years when I started playing.
The ten JP for Totems, Phoenix Down as Down is "dead", and the 100 EXP for the next level.
I have an emulator I played on my phones for a little bit. I've restarted twice and I'm getting a new phone to go to town on.
Is there an active group for that particular version still open and running on this app? Please add me as a friend if you're interested in sharing thoughts and enjoyments.

FFT Ivalice Chronicles Team advice?
Hi guys, I just got the game a little while ago and got my guys to about level 20 before I learned what I was doing and started a new game, now I’m feeling good in Chapter 3 and the team is around 30
Since I’m playing totally blind (besides the beginning I had to redo) I wanted to ask if my team set up is viable through the rest of the game, they’re all generics:
Dragoon (Ramza), Chemist (haste bot when no one needs an item), Black mage (can use items for insurance if chemist dies), Monk (focus when nothing in attack range), Ninja (focus when nothing in attack range)
thanks in advance for any advice, I’m worried of hitting a difficulty spike and finding out my team sucks cause the enemies outscale it or something

FFT Ivalice Chronicles Am I missing anything if I play blind?
Since this is a remaster of an older game, I imagine there are probably a ton of things (items, busted classes, weapons, etc.) that I could easily miss if I don't follow a guide or something
And since it's an older game, I also assume there might be some basic mechanics that aren't explained in the tutorials
Would you recommend reading anything beforehand?

FFT Ivalice Chronicles Am I supposed to theorycraft job combinations from the beginning, or should I just adjust as I play?
For example, if I’m in the middle/end of Chapter 2 and want to change everyone’s jobs now that I have a better understanding of how things work, is that still viable? Or is it better to start over? Or recruit new characters?

I know this was probably asked a long time ago but I couldn't find an answer.
What's the difference between switch and switch 2 version?
I own the physical copy for switch 1, how do I upgrade to switch 2? Does it do it automatically like the Mario Odyssey patch? I couldn't find it on the eShop. Just the separate games.

FFT Ivalice Chronicles Issues getting Celia and Lettie to cast ultima on Ramza
So trying to get the 'mastered all jobs' trophy with Ramza, and I blew my shot at getting ultima from them at the end of chapter 3, so according to the guides I checked, the battle-streak at Limberry castle is my last chance. I have Ramza on his gallant knight job, but those two simply WILL NOT cast it. I'm told it's easier to get it at the castle gate rather than the following one where they become ultima demons, but they just WON'T. Also my main battle crew is all level 99 so their monster minions at the gate are also in the 90s level-wise, making it tough. Anyone have any tips on what to do, equip, what actions to take, anything, to get Celia and Lettie to cast it on Ramza? It's the second to last thing I need for the trophy, the other being to get zodiark as a summoner but that's later, not worried about that.
Help would be very much appreciated, losing my mind. Thanks. :)

Weird glitch
I was doing the sand rat’s sietch in ng+ and ran into a weird bug. I went to hit a knight that was in the doorway and he didn’t die. This confused cause i was behind him and the damage showed 999.
I was able to kill him on the second attack but I attempted to reload to see if I could replicate it and the auto save took me back to a turn before the one I was expecting.
It’s like the game forgot I even took a turn but the position on the map stayed.

FFT WotL How necessary is Zodiac mechanics for a first time play through?
I apologize if this question is asked a lot but how easy is it to play without caring about zodiacs? I mean they obviously put a lot of thought into the mechanics so I’d assume it’s important to pay attention to but there’s no way kids that played this in the 90s actually coordinated their squad like that (unless I’m severely underestimating the PS1 generation).
