The A-rank requirements is 16k, not 14, for the harder maps. Other than that good OP.

GreatGreen posted:Does the game ever specifically tell you what will be needed to achieve A rank on each battle? The ones I'm seeing now show rewards for A rank, but not how to achieve A rank. No but it rarely changes. On normal maps aim for 1600 KOs (its 1200 on some easier maps but you can't know which one you're on) less than 120 damage (Percentage of the chatacters overall health lost, you can see in the upper right of the pause screen how you're doing on the current map) and under 15 minutes of time. For other map types this changes a bit obviously but its usually straightforward. Quiz maps need you to ko the right enemy in all 3 keeps and keep under the damage threshold, All Attacks are Devestating means kill all the officers without getting hit etc (protip use the bow in these stages, it trivializes them)

Pollyanna posted:So what’s the trick to Redeads and Gibdos? Their attacks loving suck. Bait them by running in close then way out of their range so they don't ever trigger the poison poo poo that takes years. Also if you can just juggle them to death, its pretty easy for most characters and as long as you aren't horrifically underlevelled/undergeared it won't take long even without weak point smashes.

Also as someone else who didn't know about blocking for a long time you can totally dodge-roll through or away from every attack in the game with the single exception of Mandhela's piece of poo poo 4 head seed attack which has idiotic good homing. Just be dodgy around enemies and they won't hit you or break your guard  Similarly, unless you're doing literally no visible damage to an enemy its often more effective and faster just to beat on them and stunlock/juggle them than fish for weak point exposes. A bit higher risk than circling them while guarding, but if you can get the timings of their attacks down you can style on them. Zore fucked around with this message at 03:37 on May 24, 2018 |

FPzero posted:He does pretty well for himself with his C2 (body slam) and C4 (lava pool) if enemies are right next to you, and his C5 (big rock throw) is both really strong, his distance, and is pretty large to hit big groups of dudes in front of you. It's just that his basic attacks are pretty slow so investing in the Nayru's Love badges early probably wouldn't hurt. His C3 also has absurd range and can wipe out most of a fort every time he does it.

FPzero posted:Then, is there no C1 in that format? Because I'd been assuming the whole C# format was saying like "Combo 1 = C1 = YX, Combo 2 = C2 = YYX," etc. because of how many times you push the regular attack button before hitting the special attack one. Is C1 meant to be just X? Yeah C1 is just X.

You encounter multiple skull kids in OoT and one in Twilight Princess. There's vague lore about how adults lost in the Lost Woods become Stalfos and kids become Skull Kids who help kids but hate adults.

GreatGreen posted:This thread is awesome and hugely informative. Thanks everybody! 1) Skin change indicating different level 2) Yeah, Higher level weapons are always more powerful unless you slot in the 'Legendary' skill which will bump any weapon up to tier 4+ in power. Only worth it if you really want to use a lower level skin since its only a tiny power boost for a higher tier weapon. Also lower tier weapons cap out at fewer slots than higher tier ones. 3) It becomes less likely to drop but you can still get them from doing the easiest content so if you want to farm one late game you can.

Folt The Bolt posted:Now that I think of it, a Hyrule Warriors x Fire Emblem Warriors crossover do need to overcome some not-insignificant hurdles. The obvious answer would be to create a new system that doesn't fit perfectly into either but rather hybridizes it. So instead of a Sword/Lance/Axe weapon triangle you could do a Edge/Pierce/Blunt one which could encompass most weapons. The real oddballs and magic can still be their own bespoke category outside of this that interacts with it like Magic does in Hyrule Warriors. (You'd also kill a few sacred cows by making Axes into clubs/hammers to fill out the blunt damage for the FE characters) I would also take a page from Super Robot Wars and keep the Zelda characters all have their own weapons while the Fire Emblem characters are defined by being able to move the weapons around to other characters in their weapon class. Alternatively, you could just go full unique weapons for everyone since I didn't really find the generic weapons compelling and FE warriors eventually gave everyone a unique special weapon anyways. You could probably make that work overall if you had to mash the two games together. I'd also probably go for an expansion of the elemental system and tie it into weaknesses. So enemies would be weak to an element (So fliers would be weak to lightning which would be the innate element of all bows) etc. Zore fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Jun 6, 2018 |

Folt The Bolt posted:I'd actually prefer to keep the elemental effects separate from the -slayer weaknesses. Just keep them as skills if you need to. Might be best to remove elemental weaknesses altogether. I like the elemental system and wanted to keep it even if some of the effects should be reworked. It fits even with the FE characters, most of them have an elemental affinity with their attacks anyways. quote:
This I heavily disagree with however. What is even the point of making Link just another sword dude when he already has a bunch of other fun movesets like the Gauntlets or Spinner? Like you don't need to borify Zelda just because FE Warriors kinda sucked on this. I'd be happier if they expanded the FE movesets. quote:
Sure. I'd like if they also had the Trident as a pierce weapon because I love the Trident moveset quote:
Giant bosses rule  Honestly you could do a BOTW style Sheikah slate to summon various things, simplify the secondary weapons down to Bombs, Stasis, Magnesis and have them apply to multiple big bosses? IDK

If there are any more characters in Smashu, that's probably where they'll be.

Bakalakadaka posted:Getting all the weapons up to level 3 makes the master sword about the same power as a level 4 weapon, and the second unlock makes it comparable to a 5* level 4 weapon but it still won't be as good as a 5* 4+ weapon because it won't have 2 elements or any skills. Really the master sword is kind of poo poo once you've unlocked rank 3 weapons and the 4k skills. Yeah, uh, nope. The Master Sword has a bunch of hidden modifiers that make it ridiculous. Also the sword beams. It is hands down the best weapon in the game. By far.

A lot of character power is tied up in weapons and some of the DLC characters and weapons are hidden on the harder adventure mode maps. Still, I didn't particularly have issues unlocking them myself. The changes in Definitive Edition make it much, much easier than the horrific scaling the initial release had.

Sidon is a toddler when the game takes place so if we do get him it'll be as an adventure mode unlock or as DLC. I think one of the more interesting characters they could put in would actually be Link's dad with a spear. He's supposed to be an incredibly well accomplished knight, picked as a personal diplomatic envoy from Hyrule to teach Princess Mipha how to wield a spear etc. Canonically took Link along and lived with the Zora for a bit. It never says what happened to him after though. So hey, make him a secondary character who tragically dies in the Calamity and has a sweet moveset like Volga but less dragon stuff.

You could pretty easily make up a 'boss' Lynel/Lizaflos/Moblin/Bokoblin/Talus and they'll probably come up with some sort of obligatory sexy Yiga ninja at least. Potentially a named Guardian who starts off on the hero side and turns when the Guardians get corrupted.

Bongo Bill posted:Specifically, the Switch version changed it so that the damage requirements are based on a percentage of your total health lost, rather than absolute damage taken, so getting heart containers and leveling up makes it easier to do well. Yeah, in the original a bunch of the A ranks were capped at 5 hearts lost total. In 3DS and Definitive they were massively expanded and I think even the strictest one in Definitive is 80% damage taken. Which is 24 hearts if you have all of them on a character. In return though, KO requirements were jacked up. They were a flat 1200 for A rank in all maps on WiiU and range from 1000-1800 depending on map and rank in Definitive. For time 15 minutes has always been the A rank cut off for everything iirc.

So we got a new trailer that confirms Robbie and Purah which brings us up to 9or 10 characters depending on if the mini-Guardian is one or not. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xP9wD-3q84Q They've almost definitely still got a few left to reveal too. I'm betting the King is one of them even if he's locked to the adventure mode equivalent, seems a waste not to use that model and all the unique animations we've seen.
