lol what, I just stumbled into unlocking Mystic Spearhand by talking to this random guy*. No quest or anything, it just said it was unlocked after I talked to him 3 or 4 times. * who is strongly implied to be some past Arisen or something

Well to be fair you also learned every other vocation by talking to some other guy, behind a counter.

MeatwadIsGod posted:This quest hosed with me because I never assumed the forger would tell on himself like that. Like, he's a forger and his job depends on people not knowing what they have is a forgery! I only found out after the quest that you can talk to the forger while Ed asks you to wait there, and then you can bribe him to tell Ed the forgery is actually the real orb. Oh it gets better: there's a 3rd way to solve that quest:  It requires you to duplicate the Orb through the Sphinx (or cheating).

Also, when you get to the Warfarer/Magick Archer trainer's place naturally, by following the main story, roughly how far from the end of the game are you? Because it feels like they've put those classes right before the ending.

Lmao, I was just exploring some near Havre and somehow ended up making this giant journey through various caves that ended in the capital of Battahl. Was not expecting that, thought I had to go through the checkpoint. Was really tough near the end; everyone with only half their max health and was accosted by a Gryphon and harpies later on that I barely escaped. And everyone is Heavy with loot. Will be very satisfying getting the port crystal here (or using one if there isn't one). Edit: Extremely satisfying to finally arrive at the city, buy a new house, deposit all my poo poo, and sleep in my new house's bed. I was very worried for a while that I'd need to ferrystone back home. Ytlaya fucked around with this message at 08:33 on Mar 28, 2024 |

I'm trying to make archer work for my main pawn (since I've played it for a while and have some gear for it), but she's not keeping her distance very well and is getting mobbed up pretty bad in the second region. I'm wondering whether it could be worth switching her inclination to calm... anyone get a sense of whether they fight more appropriately for the class?

One thing I've noticed is that Warrior pawns (or at least ones with a certain disposition) with the "launch someone into the air" ability seem to use it constantly and often in situations where it's either pointless or outright dangerous. This one rear end in a top hat pawn kept trying to launch me into the air while I was on the side of a cliff! I literally only survived one of them due to my Sorceror's hover ability. It's like he was deliberately trying to kill me. And during a fight with a golem in the cave he just sat there trying to launch me (a Sorceror currently, so completely pointless to launch) instead of fighting it. I think the combination of one of the pawn inclinations and that skill is just really bad. Nuebot posted:Where do you even go to buy the house? I want a house. When I entered the city (Battahl) from the Eastern side (because of the bizarre way I entered Battahl) some lady just accosted me in some narrow path asking if I wanted a house for 30k. If you mean in the original capital city, that's from the house-sitting quest. Ytlaya fucked around with this message at 08:44 on Mar 28, 2024 |

Saraiguma posted:once you deliver those items and fight the spiky enemy you can just gently caress off for 3 months and do whatever you want, no apparent timer Yeah I figured that I probably just couldn't find my way out of that area. Still, I didn't want to even go there or fight that enemy yet and was right in the middle of an expedition when it suddenly started playing cutscenes. So, definitely a good idea to keep in mind, especially if you'd rather have one big finale. Very glad I wasn't completely locked in though.

Which of the Sorceror Meister spells is better (or which situations are each better in)? Currently I'm using Maelstrom, which seems pretty good, but I'm curious to try the other. Some quest stuff in this game is pretty unintuitive. I had looked up how to get the other Sorceror Meister spell + the Mage Meister spell, and you have to go to this house in the middle of nowhere that there's a good chance you already visited (and there's also a good chance the quest doesn't even trigger, since you need both grandparents physically out of the house). And you need to have made copies of the grimoires to get both spells. How would you know that normally? Unrelated question - what's up with some Drake talking with me telepathically or something when I was in Havre Village. Surprised me and never figured out why it happened. There was a Drake nearby when I first arrived, so maybe it was him? Captain Oblivious posted:Right before the end. They really should have had Magick Archer unlock in Sacred Arbor not there. If you want you can still get Magic Archer earlier, though, right? I'm thinking of trying to do it while I'm (vaguely) in the area, since it's the vocation I was most interested in from the beginning.

You don’t actually need to forge the grimoires to get both spells. Both quest givers only need 3 out of the 5 potential grimoires and there are multiple copies of several of them in the game world. To my knowledge only Towering Earth and Let There Be Light are unique. And yes you could theoretically unlock MA early with foreknowledge and shenanigans but it would be a slog.

I love the "throw your pawn" skill for moments like this, even if I can only rarely get it to work in combat. Even when I do manage to get my pawn to land on an enemy, they'll still complain about me seemingly not doing it right. Anybody know what's up with that? https://i.imgur.com/cdbXmoP.mp4

I'm pretty sure she has a random chance to spawn behind the inn, so you mount be able to force it by dozing off at the nearby bench.

Before I get got by it again: Does the game frequently repopulate open world areas so a quest can take place there? I cleared out Trevo Mine and Marve Village but the game reset them when I reached the Vernworth and the main quest directed me at them. I had to go back out and do them again, where they acted like it was the first time I'd visited. Is that going to happen again? edit: I guess I expected the game to recognize I'd already done the "monster culling" it was asking for. In one of the three spots, it did. Odd stuff.

There's a third solution (if it's the border town quest I think you mean): Get the forgery guy to make you a fake orb, letting you give one to each. If you give the fake one to the dickhead he'll have it verified and you need to bribe the forgery guy to claim it's real, losing you a bit of money but still getting you the other rewards. If you give the fake one to the guy who just wants to run you probably get everything no questions asked, but I guess the guy eventually gets hosed over by it.
