I ended up picking DQ8 up yesterday. Has the menu always felt this awkward? Also if I decline to some skill points are they gone forever or will they stockpile? Nihilarian fucked around with this message at 17:04 on Jan 22, 2017 |

Given the whip nerf and the fact that we get two new physical (?) characters, I'm thinking I'll focus on magic for Jessica and Angelo. Are staves any good for them?

If you're like me and giving the hero spears, one of the prizes (3rd or 4th?) that Cameron gives you for taking pictures is a Holy Lance. I made one right in the middle of the Ascantha detour and then got a free one just after I finished Also, I got it even though I was completely ignoring the monster picture challenges, so you can probably pick it up sooner if you're diligent about that.

I never really figured out the deal with sell prices beyond "you get less money the more of an item you sell"

lmao I watched a jailcat fade away, less than a foot from my face. There goes my last eau de monster! Related: when a jailcat bumps into you it apparently just permanently stops moving, beyond the basic animations

so gold golems only give about 300 gold in the 3ds version. Is there a better way to get money?

The ultimate courage skill requires swords? Probably should have checked before I maxed it out.

Supremezero posted:No, that skill is "you can get it at max sword or max courage".

The weirdest part is that it looks like it's one of those stats don't matter skills so I can just put the Stone Sword in his bag and call it good? But if you can get it without investing in swords and it doesn't care about weapons why lock it to swords in the first place? Lock Gigagash to swords, sure, but this just feels inconvenient, and for no reason.

Has anyone figured out how to do Monster Arena Rank X? Because Talos, Skeledoid and Octurion got their asses beat by loving Bangerz and Mash

So other than maybe a little bit of Dragon Warrior when I was a child, the only Dragon Quest I've ever played is DQ8, until now. I went through DQ1+2 on the gbc and they were short and academically interesting. Like 30 seconds into DQ3 for the SNES I thought "ooohhh, this is why the series is so beloved." I love the battle animations. It's vibrant art style is making me want to go back and try 1+2 SNES. The personality and class system feels deep and I'm pretty sure I'll play it again to try different combinations. When I realized I had to fight Orochi twice without going back to town and resting, I was able to kill all my characters and use call shop to summon a priest to resurrect them with full mp. DQ3 might make my top rpg list and it's really making me want to skip 4 and 5 and just play 6 when it's over. At some point I'll probably also start dq8 again and do something goofy like an all fist run.

Evil Fluffy posted:DQ6 tried to do a lot and while it was visually impressive for its time and had a lot of content, it can be rough. The boss you fight just before class changing unlocks can be hellishly hard in the SNES version.

The last boss of dq3 is a slog. If i was going to fight him without savestates i would definitely have to grind a lot. my hero and martial artist each did about as much damage as he healed every turn with the damage buff spell, and that was pretty much my only dps because he had bounce and i needed to heal every turn, twice most of the time. Thank god for the sage stone and the 4 wizard rings i picked up

I really enjoyed the game right up untip the final boss so i'll probably play it again some time and remember orb

I thought getting up to level 48 was a pain. No way i'm doing anything that requires grinding to 77

Like a month ago i wasn't paying any attention to dq stuff so i just found out they're remaking 3 again and i'm now interested

A lot of them are available on mobil I hope dq3 remake comes out on ps4, but given octopath traveler and live-a-live aren't there yet I don't have much hope

If you want sage spells on three characters you are going to double your playtime. It would legitimately be more efficient to keep everyone except clown their first class and just grind past whatever roadblock you're on that makes you think you need 3 sages than to have everyone start over multiple times

IIRC the switch version of dq3 doesnt have battle animations? Or so i heard

Just beat dq5. I was told about slime kniggt and it was pretty useful but man, golem came in at level 4 with higher hp, attack and def than anyone else and stayed at the front of the party drat near the entire game

Looking forward at dq6, it looks like Ashlynn and Nevan have basically all the mage and priest spells, respectively, by default. Is it really recommended for them to go down mage and priest?
