FAQ


Q: Can I copy your website?
No problem. All the HTML, Javascript, CSS code is free for you with the following requirement: Since the Javascript files on the website are compressed and hard to read, don't be hesitate to ask me for source code. Note that most of the images are owned by Square Enix Co., Ltd. Please don't copy the images from this website.
Q: I cannot see any card. What should I do?
First, please make sure that

Internet Explorer is not recommended because I usually use Mac. Sometimes I may use features that are not supported by Internet Explorer.

If some of the cards are enabled but you cannot see them. That may be caused by a Javascript error. A possible reason is that when Javascript files are updated on the server, the browser (or the network provider) may not fetch all the updated files. For this case, please append "nocache=1" to the URL you want to visit. For example, the URL "http://gccards.web.fc2.com/cards.html" becomes "http://gccards.web.fc2.com/cards.html?nocache=1" while the URL "http://gccards.web.fc2.com/cards.html?skill=qs" becomes "http://gccards.web.fc2.com/cards.html?skill=qs&nocache=1". You may also enable "Force nocache." in Options instead of appending "nocache=1" manually.

Q: Why there is [CARD NOT LOADED]?
That should be a link to a card, which has been disabled by you. Sometimes a card missing may be caused by a Javascript error.

When you select a card, click on the big name of the card and then the current URL will change. The new URL with "id=xxxxx" is a direct link to the card.

Direct link to a card

You may search for a card with a specified name by the URL of the following form:

http://gccards.web.fc2.com/?name=TERM
where TERM is a string of comma separated terms. The first matched card will be returned. For example, http://gccards.web.fc2.com/?name=gilga gives you Gilgamesh, and http://gccards.web.fc2.com/?name=gilga,ffv gives you Gilgamesh (FFV).

You may also search for a card with a specified ID by the URL of the following form:

http://gccards.web.fc2.com/?id=ID
where ID is the ID of the card (5 digits). For example, http://gccards.web.fc2.com/?id=40054 gives you Serenade Banshee.

If you want to search for several cards that satisfy a certain condition, you may use the URL of the following form:

http://gccards.web.fc2.com/cards.html?QUERYS
where QUERYS is a string of & separated QUERY, QUERY has the form Q=T, and T is a string of comma separated search terms. Q may be one of the following: For example, http://gccards.web.fc2.com/cards.html?place=plains&stars=4,5&border=none returns non-bordered 4 stars and 5 stars cards that are encountered in Berneside Plains.

Q: What does the color of the big type mean?
The colors denote the classification of the types into good, decent, and bad types with respect to the selected card. Which classification is used can be set in the Options dialog. We do not suggest that which classification should be used. Set the classification with your own judgement and preference. Below are the colors (from good to bad).
Q: Why my max card stats are different from yours?
The max card stats are computed from the initial values. Bias may exist.
Q: Why RB Ace Nuada cannot kill (one shot) RB Ace Omega but RB Ace Omega can be killed by (one shot by) RB Ace Nuada with Physical+4?

The default skills set of RB Ace Nuada contains Last Stand, Greater Might (ATK+20%), and Storm Impact (Physical+4). With the three skills, RB Ace Nuada cannot kill RB Ace Omega equipped with Weakness (Enemy ATK-20%), which is not a recommended skill of RB Ace Omega.

The default skills set of RB Ace Omega contains Mind Blast (Enemy WIS-20%), Vanish (Light+4), and Greater Cunning (WIS+20%). With the three skills, RB Ace Omega may be killed by RB Ace Nuada equipped with Greater Might (ATK+20%), Storm Impact (Physical+4), and Ursince Aspect (ATK/DEF+10%).

If the option "Ignore Non-Recommended Buff/Debuff" is enabled, then we only consider the case where both RB Ace Nuada and RB Ace Omega use their default skills, and thus the results will become consistent.

No. The best skills depend on the type and the usage of the cards. For example, Sphinx Empress as a physical attacker may be equipped with QS, ATK+20%, and Physical+4 while Sphinx Empress as an elemental attacker may be equipped with QS, WIS-20%, and Elemental+4. You may set your own recommended skills by the buttons in Skills&Options.

The data will be saved in a local storage, which can be cleared in Options.
