Blackbelt Bobman posted:Does it have side quest info? I need a good side quest guide. Yes it does! Big spoilers in that post-game section. Think it's missing a couple alternate solutions (I know "For Want of Fish" is missing a second option to beat up a guy), but it should be enough to solve everything. No mobile-friendly version as far as I'm aware, unfortunately.

Does any character have good synergy with Starseer? I was thinking Primrose because she has other buffs and her max boost special whatever move as a Dancer lets her target all allies with buffs. I could see that being useful if someone is pumping her full of BP.

Primrose is probably the best for Starseer but the job is so weird and varied that it kinda goes with anything, though preferably someone with good ElemAtk to make use of its two attack moves. You definitely want the Dancer's Divine paired with it though, especially for the final boss (I believe the second part?) since it has some nasty de/buffs you'll want to nullify.

There's an argument for Cyrus, since it gives him all six elements.

I used Ophillia as my Starseer getting some help from Primrose's divine skill.

So does Sorcerer, though. I personally stuck Starseer on Alfyn just to give him something to do if you’re all good on health for his turn and you don’t need him to help break an enemy.

Sure, but making Cyrus your Sorcerer means he only has one set of job skills. Giving him Starseer gives him all six elements and lets someone else be Sorcerer.

Yo that Direwolf optional boss was extremely hard, I tried to cheese it with Runeblade Tressa but he can just nullify all your buffs and summon a lot of buddies and generally ruin your fun. I tried giving Tressa all my best physical Def armor but it seems to barely matter, the wolves were still hitting for over 1000 like gently caress man.

What am I missing with magic use? I’m halfway through chapter 2 and it feels rare that I need to use magic. It doesn’t do enough damage to counteract the fact that I’m only hitting once or twice most of the time, so I end up using regular attacks so I can break the enemy faster. I feel like I have to be missing something that would make magic use more effective.

Magic's mainly useful for groups of enemies and for characters that favor ElemAtk (Cyrus, Primrose, Ophilia). I find the two types comparable and near-equal enough, though like you mentioned it's far easier to break weapon weaknesses early on. Scholar's two-hit spells are pretty drat nice though and should last you well until you get the advanced jobs.

Some Numbers posted:Sure, but making Cyrus your Sorcerer means he only has one set of job skills. On the other hand, Sorcerer has little conflict with the role Cyrus naturally leans towards (magic offense up the wazoo). That said, Starseer should go towards a support character to expand their support options or a magic attacker who wants to generalize more. This makes Ophilia, Cyrus, Primrose, or Alfyn good options for that class.

ExcessBLarg! posted:Elemental skill attacks always hit enemies whereas they may evade physical attacks. Elemental skills can also be AoE and/or multi-hit without boosting (so can physical skills, but not regular physical attacks without boosts). Elemental Attacks that are multiple-hits also tend to be focused on damage compared to physical skills that are multiple hits, since those tend to be more focused on the multiple hit than damage (because breaking). Having a good source for both elemental and physical damage/hits is key.

My main was Ophilia and for a good 2/3 of the game, boosted Holy Light was among the strongest hit I could throw at a boss. Once their defences are broken, even a single target, boosted spell hits like a truck. It was only left back in damage once I started unlocking divine skills.

Yo. gently caress that rear end in a top hat end boss. I didn’t even get to phase two... he had 6000hp left. I think I need to spend a little bit more time leveling up my weaker dudes.

Good news: if you have a Warmaster in your second group and feed them BP, the second half is almost comically easy.

I needed Warmaster Olberic to have any kind of chance against the first phase. I also didn’t prepare at all for the final dungeon. And I need to go back and level up more guys because very few of them are above lv60. Do they ever acknowledge that the hellbeast in the mural that Cyrus finds in his Ch4 is very clearly Redeye? Also, is there more content after I beat the end boss or is that it?

There's a little bit after the big boss, but it's not very satisfying.

I'm a little surprised given they made such a big deal about it's Switch exclusivity back at launch but I'm happy more people get to play the game. Wonder if the other consoles will eventually see it too.

what level should you be for the shrine bosses? are you intended to use rather specific jobs/setups to beat them? i beat the sorcerer by having two clerics and spamming reflective veil. ive fought the warbringer once and im thinking incite/sidestep will mitigate most of its attacks, havent found the other shrines.

They’re basically designed to require certain combos, yeah. You practically need Runelord Tressa (thanks to Transfer Rune + Sidestep) to take on Warmaster. For Runelord himself, you want Warrior Tressa so she can Taunt and Sidestep.

Runelord might make the fight easier but "practically need" is a stretch. I don't doubt it makes the fight easy as hell since it trivializes other fights though. Being able to defense break at the right time is the biggest thing though.

I got to the boss of Tressa's second chapter, and are they all going to have health like that from now on? Olberic's the only character who feels like he does any reasonable damage but even with him along it felt like he was never going to die.

Try getting new weapons, gear has a big effect on your damage output. Also grab the jobs if you haven't, they should all be along the Chapter 2 paths and will give you minor stat buffs in addition to more abilities.

When's a good time to have a go at the hidden sub-jobs? I've just finished all Chapter 2's and everyone is at least level 40, H'aanit and Therion are about to hit 60. I got a bit carried away in Goldshore. All characters have at least one sub-job mastered. Good to go or is it more something to be saved before the Traveler's Tale?

40s is about the right level, its when most people do them. The bigger concern is that basically 3 of them are gimmick fights where the proper setup invalidates them but if you lack the setup theyll run roughshod over you unless you are grossly overleveled. Expect to eat dirt when you meet them unless you figure out the setup, so dont get disheartened and think you must grind.

I waited to get the advanced jobs myself, but if playing again I'd probably try to get them early. Runelord in particular is so broken. Having your entire team do 9,999+ attacks each turn is unbelievable.

Many thanks. I've tackled the Sorcerer which took a few attempts to figure out the right approach but once I had a pattern worked out it was a manageable waiting game.

I have no idea why Square thought my last name was medieval-sounding enough to give to Olberic, but I'm down with it. I'm still getting the gang together, I've got the merchant girl whose name escapes me as my fourth member.

I was level grinding for the end boss and had almost all my guys to lv70 when I read that you could use Bewildering Grace to get EXP and JP multipliers. Welp, that could have saved me a lot of time. I also didn’t know that the EXP/JP increasing accessories stack with the skills (at least I think they do?) Anyway is it worth it to grind out a second set of battle-tested weapons or should I just run headfirst at the end boss with what I have?

Welp, that could have saved me a lot of time. I also didn’t know that the EXP/JP increasing accessories stack with the skills (at least I think they do?) Apparently it's more efficient to grind regularly than rely on BG procs. The x100 multiplier is a 1/1000 chance of triggering for each, and only at max boost. Plus there's always the small chance you accidentally wipe your party. It's something you may mess with if your Dancer goes before your Sorcerer, but otherwise it's faster to just first-turn nuke your foes with Sorcerer. You shouldn't need a second set of battle-tested weapons, though you probably want to make sure you've at least cleaned out the NPCs of their good weapons and armor first. You'll want to gear all eight characters up appropriately.
