the way your party and enemies would automatically move and strafe around the battle screen, it was cool. the manual control for the player character is nice, just wish everyone else didn't just... stand there...

Not very far in yet but I really love Erik's mechanic of inflicting status ailments and then punishing enemies with ailments. Reminds me of the nightseeker class from Etrian Odyssey 4 which was also a lot of fun.

Lots of early bosses fell to that combo. So sweet (said like Cartman)

Being able to respec basically whenever you want is the coolest poo poo ever. I’m pretty much trying something new every other boss

I've been exclusively using Greatswords on the MC but now that I know he can eventually dual wield I'll respec him when that becomes available.

There's a lot of awesome swords in this game, I wish I could use them all. I hope I can craft or find some that finally out damage the falcon blades

What's the practical difference between Gigaslash and Quadraslash?

I.N.R.I posted:giga slash does lightning damage and only hits a group .. quadraslash hits all of them and does probably light damage, without the ning. Gigaslash hits them all as well. However, based on observation, I think the difference is that Gigaslash scales off of Attack while Quadraslash probably uses Magical Might. And different elements, as you said.

I do wish the game were a little less obtuse about elemental resistances and skill/stat scaling and stuff, especially since autobattle on Fight Wisely seems to mostly take advantage of all that stuff optimally anyway, so it's not like it's a big secret .

is it necessary though .. i think you get more than enough info to know what youre doing and to figure out when to do it

i appreciate talking mechanics, but i'd honestly prefer to know as little about that stuff as possible

me personally? i love numbers and seeing the formulas that happen everytime i hit things, its interesting, especially when a lot of those numbers havent changed in 30 years

Extremely minor postgame spoilers: I'm really enjoying the difficulty ramp, even baby enemies from the beginning of the game are tough now. Having a freaking blast running thru the world from the start just checking out the new enemies.

Do I need to switch weapon types in order to use certain skills? Like say for Erik, boomerangs and knives?

Yup, plus it might be worth noting that stat boosts apply no matter what you're using, unless it's a "damage+ when wielding" node, obviously.
