I'm going to go with Armoroad because I want access to the Shogun subclass. :ssh:

If you're going down that route, you'll want to use Gladiator as the main class. Assuming you're going with Warrior Might shenanigans. And two Shogun/Buccaneers for WM fuel.

Assuming you can fully trust a creepy tree-possessed guy and his skeleton-murderbot sidekick, the latter of whom is responsible for betraying and killing countless numbers of your fellow adventurers to protect the secret, to say nothing of the (unsuccessful) attempt on your own guild.

Plus Armoroad gives you the far superior unlockable class, and if that's not a sign of being the clear Good Guys I don't know what is.

I was totally ready to side with Armoroad just because gently caress Olympia, but Deep City really did make a better case.

I don't know exactly what I'm gonna do with it, I may not even use it. But I definitely don't feel like fooling with the other class, so I want to keep it as an option.

I'm not using a Gladiator so

In that case, make 2 Shoguns with Combat Study in case you do want to roll with a Warrior Might party later.

Queen's Mark and Abyssal Prayer are like the only terrible ones. The others range from having some situational use to being really useful.

They're not really hard to get at any rate.

Yeah, those two were the ones I meant.

I'd say the best ones are Wolf Pack, Phoenix Wings, and Yggdra Vaccine. The other two were decent, as I recall.

In other news I just fought the Ghost Ship and got a rare drop from it. Neat let me go sell that and see what I can make with i- :stare:

I'm sure that's not an endgame level rapier but drat it's a lot stronger than what I have now.

You got really lucky. It has a 10% of dropping. It's not the best one, but it outclasses a lot of them for a long while.

It's okay on a Prince, but on a Buccaneer, that's a huge boost to their damage output.

Possibly for the DLC.

Or the Troubadours.

BattleMaster
Aug 14, 2000

If the Troubadours and Chestwraps Ronin didn't trigger Partial Nudity in previous games (or let's be serious, the Nightseekers and Dancers were even worse) then it has to be the gross hot springs DLC or something else.

Edit: ESRB doesn't have the full rating explanation up yet

It's the Hot Springs DLC. IIRC one of the preview shots for it was the princess character "tantalizingly" covered by steam (as Anime hot springs episodes are wont to do).

I don't see anything mentioning one on Zaraf's maps on gamefaqs.

Is there one in the 5th Stratum?

There is, and if you refuse to interact with it this time you get an extra line about how 'you will no longer be swayed by the demonic rodent's tricks, ignoring its shrill squeaking as you turn and walk away.'

Or something like that. It's been ages since I played that part. That squirrel just wanted the string to build his nest you guys he didn't know he was doing anything wrong. :smith:
