  • Genre: RPG
This movie is 90 frames faster than what submitted before. 
I can't write English well. Therefore, wrong on the grammar is found a lot.
This TAS was needed extraordinary luck manipulation.So I use my bots in the greater part of scenes.
The large majority of re-record count are due to my bots.

About the game:
Wizardry is an old-RPG style game. Now, this game is so simple and cheap, 
but I think this game is very good. "The Knight of Diamonds" is the 2nd scenario in Wizardry.
The goal of the game is to get "Staff of Gnilda" and bring it to the castle of Llylgamyn.
But only the person who equips armors of "The Knight of Diamonds"
(Sword, Armor, Shield, Helmet, and Gauntlets) can take this staff.

About the run:

  • I create a Dwarf Cleric who has Strength 18.

    • When Strength exceeds 16, (Strength-15) damages are added about one time of the attack frequency. And the character's attack can hit easy.

  • I pick up him and go into the Maze.

  • In B1F, I go to stairs to B2F and go down.

  • In B2F, I go into a room and beat a Mummy. Then I teleport stairs to B3F.

    • A trap can't be triggered if Spell-users inspect a chest.

  • In B3F, I go into a room and beat Carriars. Then I teleport an encounter-room and get two "Ring of Movement".

  • I beat Carriars again, and teleport the chute to B4F, and get two "Ring of Movement".

  • In B4F, I go into a room and beat a Scryll. Then I teleport next to Magic Helmet, and I get "Muramasa Blade" and "Coin of Power".

  • I have a Cleric invokes Special Power of "Coin of Power" to change Samurai.

  • Then I drop unnecesary items, and have a Samurai equips "Muramasa Blade".

  • I beat Magic Helmet and  get "KOD's Helmet". Then I go up B3F.

  • In B3F, I beat Magic Sword and get "Harthnir".

  • Then I use "Ring of Movement" and go to the place in B2F where Magic Shield is.

  • In B2F, I beat Magic Shield and get "KOD's Shield".

  • Then I drop a helm and use "Ring of Movement" and go to the place in B1F where Magic Armor is.

  • In B1F, I beat Magic Armor and get "KOD's Armor".

  • Then I drop a helm and use "Ring of Movement" and go to the place in B5F where Magic Gauntlets are.

  • In B5F, I beat Magic Gauntlets and get "KOD's Gauntlet".

  • Then I have a Samurai equips KOD's items, and go down.

  • In B6F, I go into the last room and trade KOD's items for "Staff of Gnilda".

    • The party can go into the last room if the party is alone and equips KOD's items.

    • If the character who doesn't equip KOD's items teleports the last room, he can't get the staff. 

  • I use "Ring of Movement" and go to moat in the castle. Then I skip some messages and game is over.

Why didn't you use a Cletic who remains at first?:

  • He has some unnecesary items. So I have to drop these items.

  • His strength is low(8), So he can't defeat Magic Shield and Armor fast.

    • The Samurai who has Strength 8 and "Muramasa" can damage them about 70 in the maximum.

    • Strength needs 18 or more to damage them over 100.

adelikat:  Accepting as an improvement to the published movie.

Well... I have no idea what just happened, other than an RPG was beaten a lot faster than it should be, and slightly faster than before.

Yes vote.

I liked it.  I can't exactly tell what was improved, but the run was fast and the enemy graphics were cool.  Yes vote.

By the way, about your "P.S.", MiezaruMono, it's probably a good idea to set the game to English, though I'm not certain about this.  How long do you think this run would be with or without an English-language change?

				

				

					
						
Used to be a frequent submissions commenter. My new computer has had some issues running emulators, so I've been here more sporadically.

Still haven't gotten around to actually TASing yet... I was going to improve Kid Dracula for GB. It seems I was beaten to it, though, with a recent awesome run by Hetfield90 and StarvinStruthers. (http://tasvideos.org/2928M.html.)

Thanks to goofydylan8 for running Gargoyle's Quest 2 because I mentioned the game! (http://tasvideos.org/2001M.html)

Thanks to feos and MESHUGGAH for taking up runs of Duck Tales 2 because of my old signature!

Thanks also to Samsara for finishing a Treasure Master run. From the submission comments:

Shoutouts and thanks to mklip2001 for arguably being the nicest and most supportive person on the forums.

If that run will be anything like this one, people won't be able to read much of the text anyway due to going through menus and such so quickly.  Therefore, I think you should TAS it in Japanese if that will be faster.

O.O;;

DAMN!

I actually understood the majority of this [I did write a guide millenia ago it seems] and even I'm totally stunned. I forgot it mentioned Hits there... and I honestly did NOT know the thing about the Strength over 16.

You didn't just beat the game, you DESTROYED IT!

DEFINITE YES VOTE!

And another Wizardry Game for Nes? Do you mean

Wizardry III - The Legacy Of Llylgamyn ??

Yes. I'll want to submit its TAS. I already made it. Here's a movie(time: 01:37.79). http://dic.nicovideo.jp/v/sm8815530
I think it can be short a few seconds. So I want to remake it to submit here.

Very nicely done! I've only played the PC version, so I will admit that since it's been a LONG time, this was a touch confusing. I say the 2 seconds or so to change it to English is a nice touch, but as long as there's an explanation as to what's going on, Japanese only will work.
