This art has been crafted by the following Final Fantasy veteran artists: Ryoma Ito (FINAL FANTASY XII REVENANT WINGS, FINAL FANTASY XI) Yasuhisa Izumisawa (WORLD OF FINAL FANTASY™) Rubi Asami (MOBIUS FINAL FANTASY and original versions of classic FINAL FANTASY jobs) Isamu Kamikokuryo (FINAL FANTASY XII) Toshitaka Matsuda (FINAL FANTASY III) Akira Oguro (FINAL FANTASY IV) The Opus X set adds the new keyword “Damage,” which activates unique effects once a player has taken a specific amount of damage — similar to the mechanics seen in some Final Fantasy games.
