Hurray, my title!  Just unlocked Ruto about an hour ago, whats the deal with that water gauge? It seems like she might be pretty good, but I think I'm missing something critical. Seems like shes pretty good at killing weak points, but I haven't played her enough yet to be sure.

Indigo Cephalopods posted:the water gauge is for her X attack. she shoots waves at people that each take about a fourth of the gauge. And I think if it's full when you start the attack, she fires off a really large wave at the end. LordHippman posted:The water gauge activates when you hit Strong Attack (Y if you're using the Zelda controls, not sure with the other set), and makes Ruto into sort of a stationary turret where you can shoot really long range waves that push back enemies and do a good amount of damage. I find with a full gauge I can generally pull off 3 wave shots. Cool, thanks. I'll have to take another crack at her later once I get a starred out weapon for her. That seems like it could be useful. After buffing out Darunia's combos with Kokiri Swords, he's a lot better than I gave him credit for to start with. His weak gauge poo poo sucks hard though, I can almost never knock out the gauge in a single go with him- his attacks just come out too slow. Lotsa fun though.  ^^edit: The bow is definitely legit for those missions, that's how I get compasses whenever I need one. I can clear the first one with Lana in less than 2 minutes without taking damage.

Rocketlex posted:Yeah. It's a shame the actual cutscenes don't play up this element of Cia's personality more, because she's potentially one of the most interesting (and creepiest) villains in Zelda history. As lol as her design is, I actually like her alright. She's appropriately creepy.  She also looks like a lot of fun to play, so do Volga and Wizro. Really there haven't been any characters so far that I don't like- I haven't been able to say that about any other Warriors game I've played. Honestly I think that the game benefits a lot from having a relatively small, tightly focused cast. The special attack with Link's Gauntlets is the greatest ever, I can't use Seismic Toss enough. ^edit: Never stop dodging until he uses the beam or the 360 bullet hell spam. His weak gauge after using either lasts a decently long time. Don't rely on blocking too much, he throws out a whole lot of hits.

Ibram Gaunt posted:Tecmo-Koei said they wanted to support the game for the long haul. Doubtful but maybe they'll do a second season pass or something. "Season Pass" is kind of a misleading term, I don't think I've ever seen any game get more than one. Every game gets cancelled after one season like a FOX show. The boss update is supposed to be dropping tomorrow in Japan, but I haven't seen anything yet about when it's coming stateside. Anyone else know different?

Bicyclops posted:Okay, I still don't loving get the elemental keeps in adventure mode! I go to the keep with the fairy in it, clear out the enemies, beat the Keep Boss, get the little "You've rescued the elemental fairy of [element]!" message, and I still take constant damage in the protected keeps! There are two different maps it's given me trouble on. Right now I'm in the bottom row, it's a forest stage you have to use a candle on and there's an A reward for Sheik, but besides the fact that the Mom Cucco is following me around and the end boss is the Dragon Knight himself, I take too much damage just tanking the keep and always get a B on that metric. Pick up the fairy, it shows up on your item list along with your bow/bombs etc. Use it while you are inside the elemental fort. edit: beaten

It's a lot easier to guess what characters/weapons we'll get in the Majora's Mask pack. If the TP one isn't humanoid Midna it's probably going to end up being somebody I'll only remember after I see a picture. edit: I actually thought that Agitha was also a HW original character until I looked it up.

Ah, so that's how they get you. You get Cia and Pals for free, but you want their third tier weapons? You gotta get on that Master Quest swag, son. I'm not complaining though, that's an assload of content in the first pack alone. I wasn't expecting the new Legend stages either, I only knew about the Adventure map. I just wish that the new adventure map wasn't still using the same TLZ1 plan. Not a big deal, just a little disappointing. Gonna go ahead and take the plunge on the pass I think, poo poo is looking good.

Bicyclops posted:Fire Emblem is the most obvious series to do a Warriors game with. I don't know what the hell you do with Metroid anymore. The space rail shooter is thoroughly covered by the space animals and isolation and solitude is too core to the game's concept to do like a 4X space strategy thing. You'd basically have to reinvent the series even to license it to somebody. I wouldn't be at all to see a Fire Emblem Warriors a year or two down the line. There's already a cross-over coming, Hyrule Warriors got a really good reception, and Awakening is about as anime as games come so it's right up Koei-Tecmo's alley. I'd play the poo poo out of it.

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:So went to freeplay to grab 2 skulltalas on hard and I'm using the weapon it's asking, and taking next to no damage and I'm sitting on 1700 kills... can you not get them in freeplay? Is it asking for Links sword? I made the mistake of using the Master Sword for that the first time, but I think it's asking for the Hylian Sword specifically. I ended up using the wooden 8-bit sword I got from beating Legends.

Who cares about the art style, I've already sent like 5000 Stalkids back to their graves using a loving 8-bit wooden sword. I think it's safe to say that the art style really doesn't account for much for the guys at Koei Tecmo.

Maybe it disappears if you leave the fort before picking it up?  edit: I think that's it actually, I remember forgetting to pick it up on one of the adventure maps, going back, and not finding it there. You just have to remember to grab it before you leave.

Metrohunter posted:The second twilight stage in legend mode is kicking my butt. The best way to handle that one is by ignoring the command to capture the two keeps at the beginning, and instead focusing on fortifying your half of the map. There's a keep and an outpost to the southwest that you should take first, also the two on the west side. The objectives can wait pretty much indefinitely, but taking those early on will give you a whole lot more breathing room.

Gargonovitch posted:Really enjoying this game a lot more than I thought I would, but if the next Zelda game's voice acting consists exclusively of Japanese girls awkwardly breathing air into a mic like this game, I might have a loving rage stroke. Lana is tons of fun to play as, but I want to mute my TV every time she shows up in a cutscene. When the 1.3 update drops you'll be able to turn off the boss entrance animations under options. I like them for the most part, but I'll probably end up temporarily turning them off when I get stuck on an adventure mode stage.

Is it just me, or is Zant really, really bad at hitting weakpoints? I was trying to A-rank one of the stages near the starting point on the Adventure map, both to get a Heart Container for him and to break into the Brown Squares to go and grab Ghirahim. It's the one where you have to kill two Dodongos. I did okay on time I guess, but I ended up screwing myself on damage. It was fast enough to A-rank the time, but still It took at least 3 weak point exposures to actually pull it off. What's his best weak-point combo?

A sequel is far from a sure thing anyway. Hyrule Warriors owns, but the WiiU isn't exactly a breeding ground for sequels. The engine is there though, as are all the art/sound assets, so it's not impossible. Really I'm just looking forward to the DLC. ^edit: You wait for them to stop blocking, then you kill the poo poo out of them. Sometimes you dodge or block.
