Solice Kirsk posted:Is this game worth me buying a Switch for? My brother in law keeps telling me it is, but I also have to buy a PS4 for Red Dead Redemption 2 this year. I love rpg's and class systems, so this sounds right up my alley and I really like the art style. Buying a Switch means you can play Breath of the Wild and a lot of other good games, including Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (if you don't mind the outfits/anime), Disgaea 5, Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 DX...etc. XainZero posted:Alfyn's Chapter 2 chat with Therion sure was...interesting.

Harrow posted:That seems like it's probably fine if you put it on, say, Cyrus, whose base job can clean up in random encounters all on its own. It's a good class if you use it in a party that has two characters that can wreck random encounters (one magical and one physical). Cyrus with Runelord does indeed accomplish both points in terms of using Runelord as an offensive class, but Runelord also has a skill called Transfer Rune which turns self-target abilities into party-target abilities so you don't necessarily need to put it on Cyrus to get the full potential out of it (and allows Runelord to be used in a supportive way). I've used a Runelord with Sorcerer!Cyrus packing the Staff Weapon Skill Elemental Bane (which means Runes trigger after execution) and it owns.

Alfyn is a terrifying person. Like this thread goes on about him being the goodest boy but the guy has NO moral qualms at all about robbing people, torturing people, straight up murdering people, etc. Alfyn’s way or hell, there is no other

It's interesting that the four rogue path characters have the four worst physical defenses; they have four of the five worst HP totals; and all but Cyrus are tied with Olberic for the worst elemental defense. That explains a lot about why my whole team died instantly to Cyrus's chapter 4 boss on the first turn. It appears (as pointed out here) that the character stats were normalized so they'd be approximately balanced. Each character distributes 100 points between the ten stats, with values for each stat between 7 and 13. At level 1, each point in HP is worth 25, each point in SP is worth 5, and points in any other stat count for 8.

Therion's divine skill is just ridiculous. Pretty much all random battles are over after almost one turn, since Speed geared Therion tends to go 1st and I can have him buffed for physical attack, accuracy, and speed by then even without any Patience skill procs. I don't even have to break enemies and I'm doing over 10k, sometimes over 20k damage with the attack.

It needs full bp though and that's usually 2-3 turns after a sorcerer has murdered everything

First turn give 1 bp to Therion. Divine skill turn 2. Second turn BP battery boosts and gives Therion 3 more BP. Turn 3 Divine Skill again while still having all buffs.

Do we know if there are any sources for nuts other than one-time drops from chests and stealing? Or purchasing I guess, if you're a square.

If you think that's crazy, boost it to max level to have every buff on your party and every debuff on the enemy.

Second optional side boss taken down. It's already been mentioned before that the Runelord's unique talents pair well with Sidestep to almost completely neuter the Warmaster. Now I have to put some thought into how to tackle the third one. I have a couple ideas but they'd necessitate more JP farming than I have time for tonight.

Most of the divines actually seem like duds to be honest. The only one I actually use with any regularity is the Warrior one. The sorc spells and starseer starfall attack are both just too good and that just leaves my fourth character who is my debuff/heal bot anyway.

Of the Divines, the ones that provide a buff (like Aelfric's Auspices, Alephan's Enlightenment, Sealticqe's Seduction, and Dohter's Charity) seem to be some of the most useful ones in general. Due to the nature of how they work, I also like the Warmaster and Runelord's Divine Skills. Though, it should be kept in mind that most Divine Skills are actually for long, drawn out battles like bosses.

I'm sure it's more damage efficient to just break and use dps skills than divine buff, regain BP, break again and burn BP at that point. I can see the warmaster/runelord ones being useful for the same reason as the warrior's but I haven't used the latter much and the former is on my warrior so

Can bewildering dance knock everyone down to 1hp and then hit the party with an explosion right after? I feel like they're both common enough that I should have had it happen to me by now, maybe square made that combination impossible because they hate fun

My favourite npc to guide is the church knight who stands outside the chapel in Saintsbridge. He casts a strong three hit ice spell that hits everyone, and instead of punching like a doofus he uses an axe version of level slash.

At base, you have Alfyn/Tressa with Concoct/Donate BP + Pomegranate items. Being able to keep the BP up for Divine Skill buffs shouldn't be too hard.

The divine buffs are bonkers. Try using Ophilia's divine (skills trigger twice) on Tressa and get twice the BP boosts. Bonus points if Tressa also has Patience.

Is there any actual difference between Inquire and Scrutinize aside from the potential reputation hit? I'm not seeing any reason to use Scrutinize if Alfyn's in the party.

Rep costs money to repair. It's not too bad in most places but some high level cities have fees in the tens of thousands to repair your rep. Grandport costs 100k.
