On the other hand, getting to lvl 99 in Persona 4 is astonishingly easy if you know the trick to it. Basically, there's one random encounter in one of the later dungeons Magatsu Inaba where the monsters summon other monsters constantly, and only run away if they take too much damage. The only other thing they can do is try to berserk you, and the summons can only do physical attacks. Equip Null/Reflect/Absorb Phys Persona on MC, set to Rush mode, leave the game running for half an hour or so, come back and collect 65535 exp. It's really hard to level up your party members this way though - the adds hit pretty hard so it's difficult to resurrect them all to collect the exp.

Yeah, Focus appears on the Kamudo magatama, which you can get right before the encounter with Matador IIRC.

Oh hot drat, mind charged Agidynes. IIRC Naoto is the only one of your party members in P4 to learn Mind Charge, and she could only really use it on Megidolaon. EDIT: She probably won't get fire boost/amp though. Imagine Yukiko with Mind Charge

uncleKitchener posted:Is there something special about the the SMTIII:Nocturne pixie? I've been avoiding any walkthroughs and guides, but I did read somewhere that if you keep leveling her up, she becomes this godly character of sorts, but I've already let her transform into High Pixie right now, so I don't know if I've done anything wrong or not. Fusing her is okay. Pixie and all descendants of her through Fusion (resummoning from compendium doesn't count) will always be the first demon on your list. Just don't dismiss that demon and you're golden.

Manatee Cannon posted:P4 does at least kind of pair off your party members. Like one of the study group things you can do has them talk about how Chie and Yosuke would be good together, and the same for Kanji and Naoto right after. That's as far as they'll likely ever go, I doubt the games will ever explicitly do anything to make any one set of fans upset about ~my anime waifu~. All of the ladies in P4 will probably always act like they have a crush on the main character in every P4 thing so it doesn't leave anyone out. Tali in Mass Effect was the waifu-est of waifus and I don't recall any outrage about her getting together with Garrus if Shepard chooses not to romance her.

Excels posted:Why would you waste two turns casting two buffs instead of just casting both on yourself at once? The MC is going to have all the strongest Personae, your team is kind of just secondary at that point. Because using your team's -kajas means you aren't using up the MC's turn s buffing.

Excels posted:P4 is a game where apparently all you need to do, to instantly resolve your social problems, is accept that you are flawed and/or pathetic and then bam you get a persona, you don't even have to become a better person or anything. Apparently you missed the entire point of the social links. Hint: gaining the Persona isn't because you've solved your social problem, it signifies that you've gained the strength to face them. The party member social links are all about dealing with those social problems after that.

I don't have all of them up yet (I need to go back and find them, why didn't I write down where they were????) though. I had a listen and it definitely sounds like the intro to the game. The second block is Igor preparing to do the tarot reading, I think. Anime has not prepared me sufficiently for Igor's old-man-Japanese.

Ethiser posted:I'm fine with changing voice actors because the other end of the spectrum is Japan where having someone else voice a character is considered sacrilege and usually takes being dead for years to make happen. Depends on the character, honestly. And it isn't uncommon for VAs to change between the same character in different media, for example several VAs are different between Jojo All Star Battle and the Stardust Crusaders anime. What happened with Igor is fairly unusual, I think.

Speaking of Erica, if P5 has a trans and/or gay character and treats them with the respect they treated Erica with it would be pretty amazing. It would even be thematic!

Yeah, having played Nocturne I knew how the system worked already, and after a bit of a rough patch at the beginning I pretty much broke the game over my knee. Four digit crits are so satisfying. Still, there were some dicey bits. One of the bosses of the Chaos dungeon wiped my team except for a single demon that was completely immune to everything it could do. The trouble is I could only damage the boss with a spell on that demon, and its mana pool wasn't terribly large. It came down to waiting for the boss to attack and proc smirk on the demon to boost its attacks, then hitting once and waiting again. Eventually I got down to my last bit of MP and prepared to reset. The final spell killed the boss.

Hassou Tobi. E: Beaten. Physical and magic are probably about equal in Nocturne, but the TDE basically expects you to have built a physical character. I went physical in SMT IV and it worked great for the whole game. Not very many demons are immune to phys, and for those I kept Zio around on my main character.

Tired Moritz posted:I tried to play Nocturne but I ended up catching a demon, grinding to get its skills and then fusing it to another trash demon until I ended up like 10+ levels ahead of the curve. I always end up ahead of the curve I think, it just changes the nature of the game's challenge from "can I beat this" to "how big can I make my Demifiend's damage numbers go".
