Sharla (Arbalist, Portrait 8) Supposedly a great shot with a crossbow, Sharla bragged and boasted about her skills at the bar despite somehow forgetting to buy a crossbow before getting in the Labyrinth. Terrible about remembering to grab weapons and armor but excellent at stealing food of everyone's plates when they're not paying attention. Claims that F.O.Es taste like chicken. Lper's choice It's a lot easier to exploit enemy patterns and routines when you don't have to stop and vote every run into the Labyrinth.

FrickenMoron posted:The palette swapped Princess looks so evil somehow. Yeah, like a vampire. I'm surprised they went with that one instead of the blonde one. So are these just how you'd put their points together if they were in the party? I don't get why you'd put their points like that instead of the passive EXP gain like the Ninjas and Farmers.

Pureauthor posted:What are those people who want synced exp bats gonna do when EO5 takes a(nother) page from Wizardry and introduces enemies with Level Drain attacks? I'd be down with it if it meant you can keep grinding skill points so if you're crazy you could have sixteen skill points by level seven. If it means you still get a point every level, great, if not, sounds like a pain.

I'm so glad you're doing EO3 now. Having someone around to guide me through the game is just what I need because by the third Stratum I'm really paranoid over if I'm doing as much damage as I should be by then or not.

Rangpur posted:Are the enemies dying before you do? Then you are doing enough damage. The F.O.Es in the third stratum continue to own me. I restarted the game and played ahead now so I'm in the second stratum again. I might have overleveled because by the time I got to the seventh floor I was able to take down those F.O.Es.

Thank god you managed to get your Zodiac on your team. Third floor turns into a huge pain in the rear end without some good source of elemental damage. I guess a strong Wildling summoning an insect could work too though.Dr. Fetus posted:Poison Spores: Limit Skill. Requires a Titan Arum and a Deadly Durian. Uses the Head. An AOE Pierce attack that deals 70% damage, and has a 30% chance to inflict Plague. The Plague ticks for 15 damage. I think you copied the Venomshroom's ability again. That should be decay breath.

I'm a lot farther ahead in the game [third stratum] because I have no restraint and no LP to make. And little idea of what I should do. My Princess has Monarch March level five and Ad Nihilo lvl 1. What should I put these nine points that I've been sitting on into?

Dr. Fetus posted:Also something I forgot to mention, Fire Jars act like a level 6 Fire Star. (60% Fire damage) A bit more useful than they were in the first two games. Yeah, I found out on accident that the Jars are crazy powerful combined with Singularity and Etheric Charge. I didn't know the formula behind it though. And thanks for the help! I'd ask more if we had PMs but I don't and I dunno if you do. I'm pretty sure I know what 'reasons' are though.

Night10194 posted:Yeah, I know Alice will never, ever be useful. Aside from Gathering, what is she useful for? General dungeon support? If you put her stats the right way, you can have a living Ariadne Thread that only needs TP to work! Or she can give you some steps that you won't encounter monsters through. So basically helpful any way besides combat.

As far as I know, you kinda need a source of elemental damage that isn't physical to speed fights up.

Dr. Fetus posted:Not exactly. While Zodiacs are more useful and a lot less TP intensive than EO2 Alchemists, elemental damage still falls off as the game goes on. It's not until EO4 that elemental damage stays relevant all game. The Zodiac's best damage skill is a physical move, but trying to make good use of it involves investing a ton of skill points everywhere. While Zodiacs can be a wrecking ball in the early and mid-game, they struggle to stay relevant in the late and post-game. At that point they either dish out okay damage, or they're forced to transition into a support role. And even in the main game, they're not the best damage class. That title goes to the Gladiator. (And I guess the Ninja if you're into using really weird and cheesy strategies.) Sorry, I should've mentioned that I didn't mean for the entire game.

Dr. Fetus posted:EO3 isn't super great balance wise, but it's a lot more balanced than EO2. Although it definitely has the weakest classes in the series. As for the Abyssal Death, it is possible to kill it on the first visit if you've been doing Sea Quests. Which I will hold a vote for after the next update. I just cheesed it out with a really strong Wildling insect because my Arbalist needed stronger bowpower. It might've just been bad luck but the Abyssal Death never seemed to drop its Gold drop if I used any elemental attack instead of killing it with one.

Oh, well this was all a silly misunderstanding. The other guilds thought you had to kill the FOEs. We thought we had to sneak past them, beating their pattern if you want to put it that way.

Theantero posted:Or he could have used all those 'player's choice' votes to force her out of the party, and thus has none but himself to blame. Yup. I made that point too. I personally don't vote Alice in because I'd like the LP to move along faster since the fourth stratum is what gave me trouble last time I played and the less Farmer fuckery we have to deal with the quicker I can have help with the F.O.E.s and boss there. I know he's good enough to deal with it even with a trash party but a decent party would probably be 60% more efficient.

There's a lot of crazy stuff that comes about from Ur Child if you get to it with a weak character, for instance! However, that would be incredibly boring and unoptimal since no one's going to use a single farmer party in this game and that wouldn't help anyone using the LP as a guide.
