For a base game I'm not all that invested in, the Marth games fanservice is really fun. I love Bord and Cord.

Knowing that there is a NG+ Ultra Hard mode, is there any point to playing it through on Hard difficulty? Aside from the +20% XP?

It's fun.

Did anyone actually use the special move they gave you for the final boss, because I don't really see why I'd use a 2 SP stall over Strike a Pose, or two 1 SP moves. People only mostly died to the boss's aoe attacks on hard. :v:

Also, is there a full list of stuff exclusive to NG+?

Anyone know how to get to the treasure chest at the bottom part of the upper left section in the second level of the final dungeon? I've tried taking all the teleports in the quadrant but no dice.

e: never mind, figured it out

I gotta say they did the whole "everybody gets EXP" thing with Watchfullness really well. At least coming from Pokemon X/Y where EXP.All made your entire party hilariously overleveled if you kept it on. Also the fact that changing party members is a free action in battle makes it really easy to switch them out as the fight requires.

And as much characterization as there is in this game, I really wish there were side-stories for Itsuki. He and Chrom seem pretty dull and boring so far (chapter 5) aside from occasional amazing descriptions of food if you pick the "dramatic" option.

There is no non-dramatic option, friend.

You do get a bunch of unique lines depending on the choice you pick though.

Can anyone tell me where Kuzu is? Ayaha had me do a little mission to help him out, and now I'm supposed to check up on him, to make sure he's okay.

I really wish this game had a decent quest tracker.

In other news, a lot of effort went into all the little music videos in this game. A cutscene theater would have been a nice addition, since there will probably be people that want to watch those again.

What place does Ayaha tell you to go check out?

There is a video player, but it's NG+ only.

Hard made some of the boss fights pretty tough.

I think I only damaged Gangrel with having him hit himself on attack mirrors, because otherwise I would get sessioned to death.

So how do stat caps work in this game? Once the stat hits 100, the bar starts flashing gold but it will keep going up through level ups and whatnot afterwards. Is that number just for show and the effect of the stat maxes at 100 or does it still count the higher number?

It's just for show. SMT IV did something similar. I think the real stat cap is something like 999.

You can't hit him in a counter state, except aoe attacks are still totally fair game.

You can't start the fight without him in the party and you can't swap him out. It's like a side story battle.

So I just started NG+, what do I need to do to fight the secret boss?

Have every other quest completed, and then trade in detritus to that guy in the arena like 30 times. There's another quest exclusive to NG+ I think you have to do, but it starts in the first dungeon and is really hard to miss.

The boss fight has only physical attacks, so it's way easier if you buy some attack mirrors.

Just used Concentrate for the first time to take down the Chapter 4 midboss. They made it even better than usual in this game! Kiria's Pastel Power also combos extremely well with Tsubasa's radiant ability before you know the enemy weaknesses.

Should I be class changing already? I tried changing Itsuki, but it didn't look like it unlocked any new Carnages right now so I reloaded.

I'm not a fan of this dungeon. It's a little confusing.

It's a free stat boost even if you can't unlock any of the weapons yet, so yes.
