Yeah, EO3 FOEs aren't as threatening as most of the other games.

To compensate the gave us plenty of Random Encounters that are basically FOE Lites.

Dr. Fetus posted:

Farmers remain terrible in combat throughout the entire game. They will not turn into fighting machines, even in the postgame. They have no damage skills, and practically no in battle support. For reference, their stats at level 70 are:

HP: 305
TP: 181
STR: 28
TEC: 31
VIT: 42
AGI: 45
LUC: 71

Aside from TP and LUC, they have really terrible stats all around. Compared to say, a Gladiator whose stats at 70 are:

HP: 489
TP: 129
STR: 64
TEC: 32
VIT: 59
AGI: 40
LUC: 40

Farmers are purely a field support class. They do have high LUC, but that isn't really a stat they can make use of, since it affects ailments (They only have Lullaby and Strange Seeds, compared to the Wildling who has access to nearly every ailment in the game), ailment resistance (which would normally be a good thing, except a bug actually makes their high LUC work against them), accuracy and evasion, and critical hits. (Good luck taking advantage of that with their low STR.) Use them if you want, don't expect them to actually contribute a lot in combat. You take Farmers to make dungeon crawls easier, not for killing bosses or well, anything.

If you're actually hoping for Alice to turn into a good party member, it's not happening. Period.

It works fine if you pump 'em to 99 in all stats.

Also, the game's being pretty nice so far. Either Dr. Fetus is pretty good at this game or it's a little more forgiving than EO2. Or both, both is an option too.

He spent a lot of the EO2 earlygame stuck with a lineup full of the squishiest classes.

Poor Nick.

In practical terms, we're currently 5 dudes in the middle of a city whose inhabitants may or may not be hostile. Olympia has shown casual disregard for our lives by siccing multiple FOEs on us, and since we're past the second stratum we don't know if she has any stronger beasties from whatever's further in. Olympia herself is apparently strong enough to snap a tree trunk like a twig. Plus since she's a robot she probably has a laser sword installed into her arms or something.

I think not annoying her and agreeing to keep it a secret would be the prudent option.

It's nothing too crazy, or on the level of temporarily erasing bosses in EO2. I don't think anything will ever top that. (Good gravy, that game had such poor QA.) Nah, this just involves having to turn Faye into a wizard.

The solution here is to have one punch monk and one healing monk.

Also, does Zodiac give you more than Gladiator for punch monk damage? Charge has higher multipliers than Etheric.

The sixth stratum's music is my favourite in all of EO, and it combined with the look of the place makes it one of my favourite stratum. ...In terms of concept and atmosphere. Actually trying to go through it kinda takes away a lot of that, but oh well.

Also, Fetus' choice x3. As hilarious as having as many farmers as possible is, I don't even know if winning is possible like that.

EO3's music is just sooooo good. So many standout tracks.
