okay, first, i suck in this quickening-chaining. Second, i don't have quick fingers. Third, the longest i've ever had, only hit 18. I don't depend much on them anyway. :P

 isn't talking about chaining enemies here together. He is talking about chaining quickenings together. It is almost impossible to get more than 10 at the most. I can get 7 pretty much every time, which does huge damage

w00t! I got 18 ! ~~~EIGHTEEN~~~ :P I think the chances increases as you go higher up in levels. My 18-Chain was when all my characters were at around level 96, when i was trying to fight some irritating monster. :? Of course, it failed abyssmally.

I don't use them much and am only level 46, so my highest chain is 4.  I don't find them usefull at all and would rather not waste my MP.

okay, sorry Darmi. It's a form of "Limit Break" in FFXII. Each character has three different limits unique to its own. And, you can chain the limits together by pressing the right buttons at the right time. The higher the chain, the higher damage it does, provided the monster isn't immune to magick. :?

Best I got was 9, I think its mostly luck that you get past that imo, the timmer is way to fast to do anything. Unless there is some cheat involved.

I just got up to 11. It does seem to be pretty much luck so far as I can tell.

Best right now is 24, but before I even knew the right way to do it I got 18 by just mashing the buttons when fighting that giant toad in Giza, so luck is the biggest part of it. I also got around 80-90 hits on multiple combos in a row using switch ins (no ethers or charges). I think you're average amount of hits is a better measure of how well you do it though.

8 is my best. when i do quickenings i rarely have and buttons that appear i hold down r2 and still nothing comes up and when it does it comes at the last possible second so i ethor get like 1-2 most of time 2-4 some times and 6+ rarely. inless im doin somthin wrong. i just hold down r2 (if nothing is shown) and just mash the buttons :P

you even kept track of that! hmm... there could be some formula derived from this lol. I can't imagine i didn't use Mist Knack throughout my last 50 hours in the game! I learnt that MP is so precious in this game, that i'm gonna use Mist Knacks just for the sake of it looking good. I don't really want to lose MP this way. All my characters are near to level 65 now. Maybe i can make a larger combo this time. :P

Ive done 28. Only once though. Quickenings are a matter of luck as much as quickness.. My second highest is 18.

I am fairly sure it doesnt have much to do with character lvl... back when i just had my very first mist attacks i pulled an 18, then i finally got it up to 20 when i was around lvl 65. It is a little luck, but its also balance in time taken and # of mist charges you can grap every couple turns, cause you can refill everyones charges in a single turn, but it would drain about all your time... balance is the key (im not quick enough to use pure skill).
