I picked up DQ7 and I think I'm doing combat wrong. Ive been leveling jobs with my characters but boss fights seem to boil down to Maribel and Goku keeping the main character alive while he uses focus strength and uses various offensive abilities until I find one that actually does more damage than his basic attack. I'm around level 20 and just finished not-Germany and saved the world tree.

precision posted:No, it takes a little while longer from where you are for any tactics more advanced than that to be "good". Double checked where I am and I just started Groundhog Day land. Character levels are 20,20,18. MC and Maribel have each mastered warrior, martial artist, mage, priest, dancer and thief. Ruff has warrior, thief, troubadour, shepherd, and monster masher. So basically just keep on keepin' on?

Does anyone have a good list of the mini medals in DQ7 3ds? I found a list on gamefaqs but it just tells me things like (town name):pot or (dungeon):chest which means I have to go trudging through the entire town/dungeon breaking everything looking for them.

Dq7 sure does love throwing fights you're supposed to lose at you. Hybris just wrecked me in the most comical manner.

Does anyone know the level cut offs for the tablets? All my guys are too high to grind the slime tablet anymore and I think only Mervyn can do the yellow drakes now. I wanna just cruise control grind while I watch TV damnit!

I finally stopped being lazy and downloaded the Dragon Quest Builders demo. I didn't realize it would be a minecraft/dark cloud hybrid that is very my poo poo in theory. Is it like actual minecraft where I'll spend forever trying to find materials to make nice things or is it actually a pretty even paced game?

Hokuto posted:There is some material gathering to do, but they're really nice about things like wall materials. They have "cladding" and "flooring" you can produce very cheaply to transform an entire 5x5 area of earth blocks into other types, like rock or brick or flagstone. They also tend to have areas like old ruined castles already built, where you can raid them for whatever furniture/decor you want if you can't build something or don't feel like farming mats for it. That's cool. I might pick it up come payday then. As long as it doesn't fall into the same issues Minecraft has of having to spend hours looking for the materials just to craft anything neat which was my biggest fear.

Last Celebration posted:A pretty decent chunk. They're out until the endgame stretch, which isn't absurdly far IIRC but you still have a few longish islands left. They really should have introduced Aishe earlier and made Sir Mervyn a super endgame guy or pilot critical NPC, as much as I like him That isn't what I wanted to hear. I'd been feeding them the spell damage increasing stuff and now I'm stuck with people who aren't set up to cast. drat me for not just feeding everything to the MC.

Draile posted:Do you mean wisdom seeds? Because wisdom doesn't begin affecting spell damage until DQ8. From DQ7 and earlier, spell damage has a static range; wisdom is your debuff dodge rate stat. Oh, well poo poo, I should have just dumped all those into the MC then too.

Neat. Going to the PlayStation home doesn't pause DQB. I got a phone call and tapped the button since that's my go to for quick pausing and came back dead.

The Final Chapter never got better. It's the only one I rushed through because it was just bland and awful. Everything else I took my time and explored for so this is the first one I got the challenge of beating it quickly done.

Starting in Chapter 3 that's what I did, just made a massive staircase and then laid the floor down up there. I didn't even do that. You just have to make sure it's easy as hell to get to. Those NPCs are lazy as poo poo and won't climb ladders or vines.

precision posted:There is an unreasonably long period of time in DQ7 where every single battle is just "MC uses Lightning, Ruff uses Roundhouse Kick, Maribel does whatever because everything will be dead anyway". I got burned out because of that. I just got my replacement fourth party member and am at an island where I help rear end in a top hat winged people lord their wings over us regular people and just can't find the energy to keep going.

Traded in Pokemon and some GameStop points for DQ8. I barely played the game on PS2 and really only remember a midget namekian being important.
