What is the difference among "Pincer Attack", "Surround attack", and "Back Attack"? How do I change the battle type? The three battle types are "traditional", "alternative", and "guage" What do intelligence and agility do in RPG Maker 2003?

Sorry for the slow reply. I was just making sure I got this right.


If you start a battle with the setting "Back Attack", your character will have his back towards the enemies. The enemies will get first attack and you will have to wait for your ATB Bar to fill before you can retaliate.

"Surround Attack" only really does anything if you have two people in your party. Your party surrounds the enemies, giving you more chance of success. "Pincer Attack" is basically the opposite of "Surround Attack" - the enemies surround you! These two settings are disabled if the "Character Placement" setting is set to "Manual", however. (Switch it to "Automatic" in the Battle Layout Tab, in the "Database", to use these)


Intelligence decides the effectiveness of magic spells in Battles. Some spells rely on high intelligence, others don't rely on it at all.

Agility is basically your speed. Higher speeds make it more likely to dodge damage in battle. The difference between your Agility and your enemy's Agility also decides how fast the ATB Bar fills.


These settings can be found in the "Battle Layout" tab, in the Database.

Hope that helps!
