That feel when the combat system clicks and you start pulling off elemental bursts like they're nothing.
F this monkey.
Wasn't actually controlling Rex, so wasn't able to do as much damage as I wanted. I think I'll kill him again tomorrow and record it lol.
Combat kinda reminds me of wow especially with how you have to pull enemies to a safe spot to avoid adds fucking your world up. The game could really use a more fleshed out virtual manual, it kinda sucks that if you weren't paying attention to the tutorial for one of the many systems there's no way to get that info in game again (or so it seems), had to rewatch some shit on YouTube. But I'm having fun with it (the art, voices and story are still ridiculous though)
I have all rare blades except perun (the ice boob spear lady) Almost level 99 too. Been beating up on a level 104 boss for legendary core crystals and level ups. Game is still so fun.
I'm gonna assume I'm the only person here who bought the DLC? One of them is pretty messed up lol. Everybody is racist against the Tirkins. kinda sad

i still loved the game after 100+ hours but i just don't want to burn myself out
By joefu Go To PostI'm gonna assume I'm the only person here who bought the DLC? One of them is pretty messed up lol. Everybody is racist against the Tirkins. kinda sadI'm still slowly making my way through the main game. At Chapter 6 and 64 hours in.
By DY_nasty Go To Postim trying to hold off until new game+ dropsNew game plus is gonna be hype if it let's us keep blades lol. I wonder what new one the DLC will add too. Hope it's more references to monolith stuff.
i still loved the game after 100+ hours but i just don't want to burn myself out
if they keep the game intense, maybe balance some stuff around the bursts/combos to make things a bit less straightfoward at higher levels, i'd be all over it
i just hope they bring the levels up in a way that keeps the game tense

Yeah I'm out guys, the story and art just aren't hooking me and I need that in an rpg especially ones that are slow burners like this. The battle system seems decent (I don't think I reached the point where you can do everything though) everything else is just too fucking goofy. Gonna try Persona 5 next...
By YungMagus Go To PostSo I'm at the beginning of Ch.7.real real
Shit gonna get real soon huh?
and not to spoil, but chapters 7-10 are at a much different pace than the rest of the story so far.
also, if you're struggling to this point - prepare to get worked

So this a point where the grindin n sidequestin becomes real.
I just wanna get to a point where I'm gettin more of these rare blades.
Bruhs @ Ch.8 now.
Ya'll werent kidding when Ol boy turns OP.

ch 8 is godlike tho
Dy, how many blades did you end with? Did you try to get them all? Also Ursala has the worst blade quest lol
By joefu Go To PostDy, how many blades did you end with? Did you try to get them all? Also Ursala has the worst blade quest lollmao fuck that
i went through 20+ legendary and 99 rares one time and just hung it up. I got all of new game+ to look forward to when it comes to grinding blades out. i think i was missing 12 or so by time i took a break. Ursula's was.... it wasn't "bad" for me because I'd already grinding a TON of merc quest shit so everything was just straightforward.
Agate though? FUCK her lol. Literally went to every area and the one spot I needed was locked behind some environmental barrier while level 90s were flying around trying to tacobomb me from 200 ft up.

The blade is the truth,
........it better be after all the fukkin work I put into the quest.
And got anytips on drawin rare blades? Im sittin on 80+ common cores
Edit: And what the fuck I do with Zeck?
By YungMagus Go To PostThe blade is the truth,that blade is probably the best in the game. seriously. you put the time in, get a good setup going, and laff at all bosses
……..it better be after all the fukkin work I put into the quest.

it gets easier to grind for legendary/rare cores as the game goes on. best advice i got to get them though is to find a unique monster and instead of focusing everything on just the full burst/chain finish - go for driver combos first. every you smash an enemy down, they'll drop a ton of items/cash. unique monsters generally cash out pretty hard too.
the trick is finding something with a big enough health pool to make it worthwhile and something that also won't fuck you up too much
also, i'm pretty sure the "stack luck :D" shit is hogwash. there's nothing indicating that it helps at all
By DY_nasty Go To Postlmao fuck thatLol. Ursala sucked since I started her after the game. Also I got all of the blades because I didn't care about having a life lol

By joefu Go To PostLol. Ursala sucked since I started her after the game. Also I got all of the blades because I didn't care about having a life lolUrsula is the gawd healer though. My first healer outside of Dro was Kora though - and she's good (and fucking hilarious) but going from stacked potion healing to on-demand burst healing is like going from Detroit to LA.
I haven't messed with her Ursala yet. Put the game on hold while playing some other stuff. Excited to get back with NG+
I still roll w/ Ursala.
Her, Vess and Dro is my current set-up for Nia.
But sursly tho wtf do I do with Zeke in terms of bulid?

Her, Vess and Dro is my current set-up for Nia.
But sursly tho wtf do I do with Zeke in terms of bulid?
he's tankier than rex and can have his attack buffed through the roof, but none of that beats being able to cancel everything and build meter dumb fast
By joefu Go To PostYeah, I didn't use Zeke at all. He also kept drawing aggro and dying in 2 seconds. Pissed me offi liked him for double tank setups alongside tora, but there's never a real reason to do it other than to fuck around
once you get over a certain hump, there's certain characters that are straight up the best at what they do without question
tora legit can't die and morag doesn't even believe in being hit in the first place
rex is a cheat code too
you don't even need healing lol
Yea healings a hang up since old jrpgs for me. Gotta have at least one in the party @ all times for me. Tho I could just use blade Nia
And holy shit poppi's the truth endgame.
And holy shit poppi's the truth endgame.
If you're still trying to find out how to get rare blades, just use rare core crystals. From what I read, legendary core crystals don't really do anything lol. Also stack luck and equip luck modifier blades. No idea if it makes a difference. Took me over 150 core crystals to get the last two I needed lol
By YungMagus Go To PostBruh I just want Kos-MosI somehow got her as my 3rd rare blade lol. So lucky. Nia pulled her too, which kinda sucked, but I kept her on her lol
Yay, more people playing this game. Let's see if Masud is the odd man out regarding this game here haha
Superbia and Luxuria are the best beasts to visit with the best music.
It is good to see you all enjoy the game after being skeptical about how high I was on it day 1.
Magus, end game is pretty much Critical Evade Sustenance. Pick and choose your choice of Rex/Hikari, Tora/HanaJD, Meleph/Kagutsuchi, or Zeke/Saika/Ether combos.
You can pretty much solo content with just Hana JD and Hikari once you optimize enough.

By YungMagus Go To PostI found out the hard way during her litte fight in ch.10also any scene with her and zeke is amazing on all levels lol

So it seems "that blade" you get at the end of chapter 7 gets a level 4 attack now looool. What's broke will now be more broken
Also really hope that the new blades being added in NG+ get sidequests.
