ZODIAC Final Fantasy RPG

The thing is that Blue Mages don't have techs. They start the game with a single Blue Magic spell. Further spells can only be gained through battles. Tech users probably have to wait a level for the entire Tech System to unlock so any Blue Mage has a bit of time to learn additional spells.

The "flexible" part was referring to Tech users. It allows them to keep a few Tech points and get a hang of the combat system before spending them.

And let's see… A starting character has 12 Tech Points, with a further 3 or 20 depending on their MAG. I'd say they also didn't want high-MAG characters to start out with almost a dozen cloned Techs.

Is the whole "Tech Users have to wait a level for the Tech System to unlock" a house rule? I'm asking about the rules as written in this case. "A character may spend Tech Points to learn a Tech at any time." is what they say right now. I'm saying I don't understand what this rule accomplishes given that.

Oh, I forgot the "at any time" part. Never mind XD

Honestly, as a workaround, I'd just ignore this rule entirely and give Blue Mages two spells instead of one. It would make things a bit simpler. Alternatively, and I don't prefer this, keep the rule and just say no one can freely spend leftover tech points until level 2.

Level 1 is the tutorial stage after which the entire gameplay mechanics are unlocked :D
