FPzero posted:Considering the full game is less than a month away, I'm expecting the framerate concerns to stay through launch. That's honesty my only real complaint right now, since it does get pretty choppy throughout. We'll see if I'm wrong though. If Koei is smart they'll implement the performance/quality mode toggle FE Warriors has. I'd gladly take a hit to LoD, or AA if it meant better FPS.

mastajake posted:Finally got the hang of Impa and man, she’s a beast. I’m not the biggest fan of Zelda thus far. Might just need to put in some more time. Hard to, since she’s only available for half of one mission. You can go back to the first map and put her in place of Link or Impa with the Party selection. Zelda actually seems her strongest when she's facing anything with weakpoint triggers, because her normal and strong strings count as using the shiekah runes. Also, you can cancel out of her bomb rune and keep attacking while it's still going.

mastajake posted:Thanks for this. I tried it on the second map and couldn't (guess because she has an event in it?) so I assumed you could only switch between Impa and Link. I'm liking her set more now. The XX combo is pretty strong, especially followed by ZR. Still haven't found any horned rhino beetles. Oh, yeah her upgraded XX combo is great and great at lagging the game because you can set even more cryonis blocks while she's on top of the big one. The game freezes for like a solid half-second whenever I do this, great for clearing crowds at least.

PsychoInternetHawk posted:The tower he summons for his C5 is super weird and seems to just stick around a while without doing anything. I don't know if I have yet to unlock a follow-up move but it seems like his C2 is the only reliable way to use his gimmick Teba is amazing and I would almost say he's better than Revali. You can hold down ZR during Teba's combos, the only things that seem to reset it are his special and the runes, so you can just drop a max level for the spread bomb arrows whenever you want, and his C... 4 or 5, the one where he does a single arrow straight in front of him, does huge weakpoint damage and you can just do it as much as you want while charging and unleashing his charge arrow. Sidon seems to be the requisite Lu Bu/Volga, his QTE attacks cover huge arcs but his stasis doesn't last for very long so it's better to just do the follow-up, his bombs seem really good though. I agree that it seems hard to keep Riju on target though.

mabels big day posted:Does changing difficulty effect anything reward-wise? I've been playing on Hard so far and I'm starting to wonder if it's really worth enemies just having health and me dying easier just so I can say I played through the game on Hard. What difficulty is everyone playing on? For me, this has been the hardest musou I've played. Health recovery is super scarce (at least on hard) It might influence the damage of weapons you find, but beyond that I can't say I've seen any difference between easy to very hard in terms of rewards. In that sense at least, AoC is very forgiving to newcomers and people who just don't want to deal with higher difficulties, which makes sense if Nintendo wanted people who didn't get HW1 but played BOTW to buy this.

UZR IS BULLSHIT posted:Battles where you have to fight Kohga with a time limit are horse poo poo, it's so difficult to get his weak point gauge to appear You get one heart every 5 levels, which I think is how HW1 handled it and I think you do get a little base attack increase because you will absolutely crush earlier stages with a high level character, low attack weapon or no. And most characters will cause a very short weakpoint expose with their C5 or C6 combo, which for some characters will be just long enough for you to stasis the mob and extend the expose.

Twelve by Pies posted:That's one of my biggest complaints, the original HW refilled your bottles between battles, but this one doesn't and you can't just buy apples or something between missions to refill your apple meter. My advice to people struggling for cash is to open as many stables as you can and to check them after every battle. All but one or two of the merchants that show up there have a preferred good that's marked with a gold star in the category list when you sell. One merchant wants monster parts and pays 50 rupees for bokoblin guts, which you should have dozens if not hundreds of. Completely agree about the apples though, I get that Koei really wants you to do small challenge maps to get those back, but that doesn't always work out.

Tender Bender posted:Gotcha. Is the combat more challenging then? I guess what I mean is if there isn't time management then taking outposts or fighting bosses seems like it doesn't really have a lot of challenge since most enemies are there to get mowed down. The combat is definitely more engaging than HW, especially in regards to not having to stand around waiting for bosses to lower their guard or do the one thing you can counter with an item. Instead, you have reliable but limited in quantity means with the rods, that get stronger if you do something like fire rod on grass or electric/ice on water, then you have more skill based but shorter means in flurry dodging and parrying, and on top of that there's the runes which every non-mook enemy has at least one attack that can be countered with a rune and named enemies tend to start at two and go up from there. Characters themselves also tend to have some kind of gimmick or expect you to utilize the way they handle runes to keep things interesting and change things up, I also hesitate to point at any character and call them bad, like Lana's spear was, characters may lean towards crowd control or dueling but no one is outright poo poo. You're right that mooks are mostly there to get mowed down and build your special meter, but all the bigger/named enemies, especially things like lynels, are enough of a roadblock that you won't sleepwalk through them. Especially if you play on hard, normal I feel is a bit too easy if you're already familiar with Musou games and want something a little more challenging.

It's hard to state just how happy the slowdown you get when selecting rods and runes made me in AoC.

Zore posted:Van Medoh sucks rear end and I hate it. The others were pretty trivial though one . The others don't let loving fifty Lynels spawn under you with their horseshit and have the ability to actually hit in AoE Vah Medoh is the easiest and strongest divine beast? The worst one is Rudania with no shield, piss-weak ranged and a melee that can't hit flying guardians. With Medoh all you do is switch to ground target mode and rake your lasers from target to target, occasionally switching back to air and using your ZL to kill everything in front of you and maybe pinpointing a target or two with more lasers before switching back, your special will charge so fast that if you start getting hit/Windblight starts attacking you're basically guaranteed to have a full bar whenever you need it. I just fly lazy circles around the arena and blow away the targets usually before they can even start attacking, doesn't hurt that it seems that attacking something that's about to throw poo poo your way interrupts them even if the projectile is already in flight.

Spergatory posted:Try to get hit during the trigger attacks then. If you get hit during those, it only counts as temporary damage, then you can just press the snack button to make it go away. Or even better, the special attack button whose gauge you just filled up thanks to all those berserker strong combos. Seriously though just snacking with the strong attack actually caps out at about 5-6 hearts, but you can hold the button down, while special attack refills everything I believe.

For that case there's no balance change; un-selecting/re-selecting in a different order to choose a different one is just an inconvenience. Oh, yeah it is a bit annoying to select and de-select weapons in the perfect order if you didn't notice/forgot what you wanted first. fake edit: Twelve by Pies posted:Warriors Orochi had weapon fusion perfected and I'm not sure why they decided to go backwards from it for the Hyrule Warriors games.

Twelve by Pies posted:I'm fine with them just being skins, that's actually pretty great. Better than just removing them completely like Legends did. Link swinging a raft around is just funny. The super mode is really only good for blasting down a weakpoint, or clearing a line of trash enemies you want to style on i guess, mostly save your meter so you can force a weakpoint and immediately follow up with her stasis when you're fighting big enemies 1v1. Her stasis followup is pretty good at depleting weakpoints if you can force them out before using it. Other than that, use rods, if you're really pressured just stasis and reposition, and her C6 can also force weakpoints.

Twelve by Pies posted:I never really found Normal difficulty that difficult outside of one or two spots, I know everyone has different skill levels though. I watched Vinny play it and he played on Hard for a while and outside of enemies doing a bit more damage, the biggest reason it was difficult seemed to be a complete lack of apples. A lot of people said it sort of feels like there should be a difficulty between Normal and Hard because the jump is just huge. Yeah, Hard definitely seems designed for people who spend time doing most of the side missions as they appear, both to restock on apples and to level characters and weapons. Vinny didn't bother to do that, and neither did I in my solo run before I co-op'd with a pal, so he eventually got outpaced by the game. Very Hard is basically Chaos difficulty from older games, and I tried one map with it and went "Nah I'm Good" after that.

Blackbelt Bobman posted:Even Great Fairy? Mine is like lv 30 I refuse to use her, way too cumbersome and also blocks out like half the screen. Rupees are a pain to get unless you grind bananas I guess, so I try not to use them on gaining levels too much. Selling monster parts to the Rito stable merchant makes a ton more money than bananas, you probably have hundreds of boko guts alone and the merchant pays like 100 rupees a pop for the rarer monster parts like hinox stuff, and 500 rupees each for lynel guts. If you somehow don't have a ton of guts then slamming the three, or two and the rare, +material recipes and going to any larger-ish map will drop an actual fuckload on you. Chief of the Dunes seems to be a pretty common recommended map to farm for boko parts and you could do Unnatural Disaster as mention earlier to also get reports if you need those.

Twelve by Pies posted:Weird, I had curing agent for days, but I needed to grind machine lubricant pretty hard because I was missing so much. It feels like I usually get around 2 or 3 just by doing the Vicious Monster missions since I hit those pretty hard when the DLC dropped. My completely subjective experience is that you seem to just get a random research lab ingredient after a map, no idea if the EX ferocious monster maps give more, or if the quantity is also completely random. This part definitely feels like something that you were meant to just end up getting some over the course of an entire playthrough.

Twelve by Pies posted:I don't think it's random because it's been more or less confirmed that doing missions with Guardians as enemies will drop machine lubricant, I was able to grind mine out by doing the Mipha mission in Zora's Domani where you have to fight 17 Guardians with a time limit, always dropped 4 or 5 machine lubricant per run. That makes some sense at least, I did just get some machine lubricant from a vicious map that was against a pair of guardians, but I also killed a moblin, some elemental moblins, a boko that was guarding a camp, and some wizzrobes and something in that gave me a pair of curing agents. I also went in with the two better + material recipes and the + rare material recipe. The next battle, also a ferocious map, I killed the same things except the wizzrobes and this time I got one lubricant, one curing and three oils. So, it might be either moblins or bokos, but I wouldn't be surprised if other mobs could drop it too.

The Golux posted:By the way, how far into Age of Calamity do you have to be before you can unlock everyone's full movesets? I feel like it's being slower than I'd like... Depends on what you mean by full movesets, if you just mean someone's full X/Y combos then that can be done without completing the main story, though you might need to complete all of their upgrades for their final combo to appear. If you mean unlocking every character and filling all of them out, then it'll be a while into post-story maps and getting to the furthest right node of the research lab, though you won't need to completely fill out the bottom path. The reason for that is a lot of characters get an enhancement to their unique ability that doesn't unlock until post-story and I recall one of the lab nodes being locked behind one of the late story missions. Also worth noting that some maps are locked behind things like the very benign and side-content looking anti-X training battles, so don't ignore them. Much as I'd like to just point you to one, I've never come across a full breakdown of what maps and upgrades unlock what in AoC.

The character is ok, kind of clunky but probably really powerful with a weapon that has more than 11 attack lol Once you get his full combo string unlocked you can win/stunlock anything in the game by locking on, doing C6, doing C2 and dodge-canceling out of it after it starts up, and just repeating that or adding in more lasers to taste. The Dojo guy cottoned on to this and he put him in the overpowered tier of his list right under Teba. Also there's something very satisfying about being the rear end in a top hat who keeps lasering everything with its dashing C1.

As for weapons, basically everyone wants attack speed, which is one of the rarest seals, except people who are already absurdly fast because later combo strings=usually higher damage, and most/all hidden weapon seals are either square or hexagon and you want to match 2/4 to increase their bonuses. Thanks to seal removal you can't really go wrong with seals, just find what works best/slap 4 +attack speeds and call it a day. Warriors Dojo is a good source if you really want to get into the nitty gritty of each character's moveset and weapons.

Personally, getting level 50 on anything seemed like a "You have nothing else left to do in the game" rather than a goal to strive for, but again that's just me. I played through the game once alone on normal and again with a friend on hard and we never had any serious trouble. So, I can't really offer a personal opinion beyond confirming that the googledoc probably knows what it's talking about. I will say that according to the googledoc, DLC2 will give a second place to farm high quality weapons, but only at the very end like DLC1 did and it's just as effective as DLC1's map.
