So I've never really gotten into the EO games but have played drat near all the Megatens. Keeping that in mind what should I know to make things go smoother? I seem to be having money issues and gearing up is proving to be problematic. I just hit floor 3 of the first dungeon and have access to fusion. My party is all level 7 so I feel like I'm doing something wrong. Do I just go raid the power points and leave the dungeon or is there a better way to get money and materials?

I just got to the first dungeon boss and man the introduction of the P3 cast was rad as hell. "Oh poo poo I'm exhausted and can't go on" and then out of nowhere Mass Destruction kicks in.

Is there a beastiary floating around yet? I want to know what drops what and where and weaknesses. I don't have time for trial and error drat it! I also don't like entering a new floor. It's scary.

Rascyc posted:Nah it's a very easy game if you've been playing EO games. Most people are in the "how broken of a party can I make" camp cause there isn't much to do aside from mess with subpersonas as far as tactics goes. Isn't this goons in literally any RPG ever? One of the most common complaints to pop up about Skyrim in the dragging games down thread is "it's too easy to brake it" and goons regularly go "man that rpg is so easy because of how broken you can make your party." Goons just can't play a game and NOT try to powergame it.

Volt Catfish posted:I must be really bad at this game because I'm only at the 2nd Stratum and it feels like every random encounter has a truckload of HP that I tediously have to slog through. Same here. If I don't just cheese thing with Naota fights take forever. Even the first dungeon FOEs take forever drop.

THE AWESOME GHOST posted:Oh god I meant 100% panic not critical. But still his attack sucks and he's in the back row so why not. Jesus I wish I had that sword work that well. None of those gimmick weapons go off for me. And on the rare chance they do the enemies still punch me in the face anyway whether they're panicked or not.

Strange Quark posted:The big thing I can think of is that there's a bonus boss fight with the Velvet Room trio. There's also the standard perspective differences with a few scenes specific to the P3/P4 stories, like the SEES realizing what crap friends they are and trying to fix it in P3, and Kanji's whole deal with Ken in P4. Someday I hope to be good enough at these games to do the bonus bosses. I'm in the third dungeon and killing card soldiers still takes most of my parties SP and forever. And yes, I try to use tentarafoo with an impure reached naota. I've still been punch by the boss. I don't know how you guys get lucky enough to have it 1) stick reliably and 2) not have them immediately punch you in the face.

Thanks everyone for the poison suggestions. FOEs are way easier now. Easy enough I ended up taking on two at once in the third dungeon second floor.

projecthalaxy posted:While I like that they have the 5 difficulty options, it should really just be a binary switch of whether or not Naoto is recruitable I'm still not sure I get the complaints that she makes the game too easy. Just not put her in your party. It's really that simple.

ZeButler posted:The only reason people say that Naoto in particular makes the game easy is because with one skill card you are able to end 99% of all random encounters on turn one, before the enemy gets to attack. Also, by your logic, should we not put Yosuke or Mitsuru in our party either, because Tentarafoo breaks the game almost as much as Impure Reach + Hama/Mudo. Yes? If you don't like X because X makes the game too easy don't use X. It isn't like the game forces you to use it. You are making the active decision to use those strategies it makes no sense to bitch.

ImpAtom posted:Okay. Those are valid points so maybe they intended it to be easier and more accessible than an EO game? Maybe the debs went "hey the EO games are harder than anyone who played P3 or 4 would expect. Let's make a game like them only easier and more fun."

ImpAtom posted:That is kind of the point of FOEs. They're enemies you need to figure out how to get past. Impure reach Naoto can't hit poo poo with a tentarafoo. Neither can Yukiko. P3MC with his panic sword can't land a panic either. I'm apparently the worst at this game because I can't just fight through FOEs and am stuck on Inaba Price floor 3 in e7 trying to figure out how the gently caress to get past the jumping assholes.

What stat helps make tentarafoo hit? Because impure reach Naoto at level 51 just spammed 8 before it finally stuck to something.

I'm still convinced I have a broken copy of the game because I can't hit poo poo with panic. No matter how many characters spam panic moves I can't get things to stick.

Apparently the spider is immune to panic? At least that's what the megaten wiki tells me. Now I just have to figure out why the second all the legs died all four came right back. This game started being unfun at the beginning of dungeon 4 and I just want it over with. Impatom don't suppose you have qr codes for the personas you used to beat this guy with at lower levels than I am? Edit: finally dropped the spider. Now time to get destroyed by the clockwork god. Double edit: clockwork god was easier than the spider and lasted four turns compared to 30. Len fucked around with this message at 06:38 on Jan 5, 2015 |

Hyper Crab Tank posted:Whelp, none of my persona have Tentarafoo, agility binds or Myriad Arrows, so I guess that plan is out. Really though, what annoys me more than anything is the constant knockdown. Granted, the FOEs cast Mamudoon which has a tendency to kill everyone who isn't immune to it (i.e. everyone except Souji*), but at least I can dodge them. You won't get any good combat tips in this thread. Every answer is going to be "kill them with panic  " your best bet for actual answers would be gamefaqs where there's still some smugness but they also help.

Hyper Crab Tank posted:I don't have a problem with any of the FOEs, though? All the ones I've come across have been manageable. The Luxury Hands though... they fill me with unreasonable dread. Yeah I wrote FOE at first on accident. But literally any and all tips you'll get is "hit it with panic" even when you're on a boss immune to panic.

ImpAtom posted:You really should get Binds on at least one Persona user. It's extremely powerful. However even if you're not binding, any status effect has a really big impact on them. However you can also substitute the Agility/Hit buff/debuffs as well. They are not as good but you can cast them from Leader Spells in addition to character spells and they have a tremendous impact on your ability to hit dodgy enemies. My weird thing was struggling to get Panic to stick with any character. I did finally end up getting it to stick on a boss and/or FOE at the very last boss. Everything before that was debuffs and struggle though and any and all attempts at getting help in this thread was "just use more panic. so what if you've run two characters out of SP trying to get something to panic. use more. "

ImpAtom posted:Because that is the solution. Like no offense but buffs and debuffs are the key to the game. Binds and Status Effects are incredibly powerful. If you're not able to stick either A bind/Salome's Kiss or Panic on a boss, there's nothing anyone can tell you that will make it easier. Or instead of taking your advice and wasting two characters worth of SP on attempting to panic bosses I could use debuffs and weather attacks which worked out infinitely better for me. Clearly I'm not as good at these games as the rest of you but the "get gud" attitude wasn't helping anything. And yeah no panic wasn't the solution to the giant gently caress off spider I spent entirely too many turns on. It's immune to panic.

Inflammatory posted:panic. the answer is always panic. it shouldn't be too hard to find a persona with tentarafoo or panic circle, so get one and give it to naoto since she's pretty much the best ailment caster. panicked enemies can't use skills and have a chance of hitting themselves. and for some reason if an enemy who would normally get two actions per turn (like the burning beetles) hits itself on the first action, it won't perform a second. I think my impure reached Naoto hit with tentarafoo like five times total through the entire game so your mileage may vary.
