Even if panic doesn't stick, having beefed up myriad arrows on Kanji, Chie, and Orgia Aigis still gets the job done. The bonus bosses were cake.

Yeah, Evil Spirit Club is the best labyrinth. Inaba Pride Festival is the worst. The final labyrinth isn't too bad IMO but those last two floors are so interconnected that they feel like a single ginormous floor which takes forever and kinda drags on a bit too long.

BottledBodhisvata posted:Is there a list of the characters who banter together? My team doesn't do much in the way of bantering in battle (MC3, Junpei, Akihiko, Zen, Naoto). Usual suspects aside, Kanji and Shinjiro get a few lines if Koro is hurt/KO'd. Yosuke gets lines with both Teddie and Chie. BottledBodhisvata posted:Are there any pairings of P4 and P3 characters? I know that Teddie and Koromaru kind of form a rapport. Ken and Kanji, Kanji and Koromaru, Teddie and Koromaru. I've also heard Teddie and Aigis get some lines, but I haven't confirmed that myself. Naoto and Mitsuru might have some, but again I haven't confirmed that personally. Volt Catfish posted:Wow the Inaba Pride Exhibit sucks I know people don't like it but I actually found the puzzles decent. The annoying aspects for me were the encounter rate and the possibility of blocking yourself off with an FOE, which more or less forces you to Goho-M or Goba-K. Evil Spirit Club was my low point. Uninspired puzzles, and not even a way to bulldoze through it on repeat runs.

It makes sense a lot of characters get lines for him, since his own battle lines just have barks, growls and whimpers. Does Ken even have banter?

Who would use Ken to find out? Ken sucks. It'd probably be with Kanji, and maybe Shinji and Koromaru.ApplesandOranges posted:I know people don't like it but I actually found the puzzles decent.

I've been playing this over the holidays on and off, and I'm at the final dungeon now, and fuuuuuuck Luxury Hands. They're practically more lethal than the FOEs, what with having three unhittable assholes spamming Megidolaon and chain stunning your entire team turn after turn. Geez. So far, the characters being a bit more one-dimensional hasn't bothered me too much (and Kanji does get some better scenes later in the game), but combat kind of turned boring after Naoto picked up Mahama(on)/Mamudo(on). Bosses are okay, mostly because you can't one-shot them.

The same stuff works on them as does on FOEs, only they are also not immune to instant death. Panic them and then they die in one hit. Agility bind is also really good since they can't dodge and eventually Myriad Arrows will crit.

I'm almost done with the Inaba Pride Festival. I just have to finish slogging through the fourth floor. I can taste my freedom from this awful dungeon. It's so...drat...close... The last two dungeons after this one are better designed, yes?

Agility bind is also really good since they can't dodge and eventually Myriad Arrows will crit. Whelp, none of my persona have Tentarafoo, agility binds or Myriad Arrows, so I guess that plan is out. Really though, what annoys me more than anything is the constant knockdown. Granted, the FOEs cast Mamudoon which has a tendency to kill everyone who isn't immune to it (i.e. everyone except Souji*), but at least I can dodge them. I should really get better persona though. But it's hard to care when Naoto instantly explodes pretty much everything else I come across without breaking a sweat. * Seriously, how hard can it be to make sure the mostly-canonical name fits in the name entry? I pondered "Narukm Yuu" for a while but it looked even dumber, so I caved and he's Seta Souji now.

You really should get Binds on at least one Persona user. It's extremely powerful. However even if you're not binding, any status effect has a really big impact on them. However you can also substitute the Agility/Hit buff/debuffs as well. They are not as good but you can cast them from Leader Spells in addition to character spells and they have a tremendous impact on your ability to hit dodgy enemies.

The solution to most problems in the game is "debuff it."

Or instead of taking your advice and wasting two characters worth of SP on attempting to panic bosses I could use debuffs and weather attacks which worked out infinitely better for me. Clearly I'm not as good at these games as the rest of you but the "get gud" attitude wasn't helping anything. And yeah no panic wasn't the solution to the giant gently caress off spider I spent entirely too many turns on. It's immune to panic.

You mean the boss? I think you can still bind that, though you shouldn't need that many turns to kill it with Myriad Arrows spam. The spider FOEs can be hit by status effects for sure.

Clearly I'm not as good at these games as the rest of you but the "get gud" attitude wasn't helping anything. This isn't 'get gud.' Landing status effects and binds is literally just a RNG. There is no 'good' involved there, it isn't even like enemies have unique attributes that require you to plan around them. The reason people keep saying using panic is because panic is absurdly overpowered and literally the only thing prevent it from not working is sheer luck. You seem to take it as an insult but the reason people keep recommending it is because it works. Other status effects and binds are similarly incredibly strong. People recommend panic because it trivializes everything while other debuffs merely trivialize some things. You're not a bad player, it's just that due to PQ's dumb design the optimal strategy is to stack enemy-locking status effects on everything and spam a single OP attack. Len posted:Yeah the giant almost final boss immune to panic. You can bind that boss which is not really significantly different. You asked about the final boss which is vulnerable to panic.
