Yeah, I know they respawn, but I'm pretty sure you can only still fight them a set number of times so it's theoretically possible that you'd end up killing them all without learning the skill.

Phone posted:Is there a fake internet StreetPass functionality? It seems to be fairly important to have StreetPasses to actually build the village, but if I can't get dudes from the tubes because StreetPass in America is broken, I think I won't buy this game. :/ Yes there is, you can get ~4 villagers a day as long as you have a working wifi connection. Unless you're playing 24/7 this is easily enough to keep pace with story progression - in fact, having too many villagers early on will give some quite overpowered equipment which might make things a little too easy anyhow.

Is village restoration rate not capped by story progression? I mean I was just assuming it was this whole time.

To be honest, maxing the Accessory-Shop as soon as possible is probably the smartest thing to do, it helps with the copious amounts of Jobleveling. I don't get why the gently caress the JP Requirements jump like that, though. It's not even like the Final Abilities are all that gamebreaking, especially since Ninja is amazingly broken at Joblevel 5, pretty much.

In that case I might have mixed something up there - you do get it for Edea on one of the Red Mage re-fights regardless of difficulty, and the vestal garb for Agnes when beating the game. I didn't know about an Agnes version of the Bikini.

Jesus christ the Mephilia fight is completely brutal. I've been destroying basically everything to this point since I got swordsage, but what the hell do you do against attacks that oneshot members of your party. Edit: I figured it out So she performs her helldeath summon every third turn. So you just default every third turn to deal with that. When she summons her adds, you can kill the one vulnerable to lightning and then have your black mage mash sleep on the other to keep it from moving, that handily prevents her from summoning more guards and limits her to (admittedly painful) autoattacks. Pissed she only gave a fairy wing on theft. Natural 20 fucked around with this message at 16:03 on Feb 4, 2014 |

I haven't finished the demo and with the game releasing on Friday I don't know if I'll have time. I've cleared the demo up to the point of cheesing the population of Norende up to 20, and I've finished rebuilding the town. Are the remaining bonuses worth getting to import to the full game?

Getting the village done is the hardest part, so you can probably get all the rest with little hassle now. They're not especially worth it, but they help. I'd say yes, do it if you want to play Hard. Don't if you aren't and don't feel like playing the demo further.

Bare this in mind, really wish I knew before I finished the game. One of the Thief abilities is 'Rob Blind' which you get at level 11. This ability states 'Steal two items instead of one when stealing'. I assumed this meant that you would steal BOTH the drops from enemies/bosses with multiple drops... Which is wrong. It means whatever you steal you steal 2x the amount. So, when stealing from bosses for awesome weapons/accessory's (Herme's Shoes, for example) make sure you equip this ability to get multiples of whatever you steal (twice for bosses, i.e 2x Herme's Shoes and 2x Wizard Rod...) If this was already common knowledge, then I'm an idiot.

I am for sure going to buy the cartridge version of Bravely Default. Between it being the biggest 3DS game to date, and eshop turning into a piece of poo poo that Nintendo won't fix, it just isn't worth it to buy digital games for 3DS.

It's your fault for choosing download now and not download later and then leaving the 3DS in sleep mode. That way it picks up downloading again if it loses the connection.
