Oh god I'm chronically indecisive, how the hell do people manage to pick a party for SD3?

Hellioning posted:Just play the game with every possible party combination. I started trying to math that out before I realized 1) I'm not great at math 2) if you're counting every possible class configuration that's well into the thousands 3) Kevin/Riez/Hawkeye this should have been a no-brainer for me anyway.

Riesz' would be fine if you changed her model to match her menu art, but the other characters seem closer like palette swaps between classes.

With a new official translation is someone going to march in and edit all the fan wikis? How often does something like that even come up? Already the guy I knew as Deathjester is named Goremand. Oh god are all the spells and special attack names different. This is going to kill me.

PantsBandit posted:Rate my team: Hawk, Angela, Riesz. You've managed to pick the only character combination that can't learn any healing magic. But, Riesz, especially Light Riesz is a Very Good Choice, who has astounding synergy specifically with Dark Hawkeye, who is a powerhouse. And Angela is a black mage and I don't think you can actually screw up a black mage. Is there actually a bad character combination or is it more a matter of bad class picks within a combo?

I'm trying to play Secret of Mana before I start chomping into SD3 (I never finished it as a kid) and I kinda feel like the hit detection is... bad. Maybe I'm doing it wrong but I'm whiffing probably ⅓ my attacks and I don't like it.

Children Of Mana called them Benevodons so the evil fused versions could be called Malevodons.

Of all the things I never expected from Square, an official English translation of Seiken Densetsu 3 was so unexpected it wasn't even on the goddamn list. Then there's the remake, and the collection came out later that day. Blew my goddamn mind.

Confession: I've only actually finished the game once, but I had a party of Riesz (Star Lancer), Hawk (Nightblade), and Charlotte (Necromancer). Just the first two are probably enough to steamroll the competition and Charlotte made me immortal. This time I want to try Kevin/Hawkeye/Riesz and make it even more unfair. Different classes though.

How big is this demo? I'm at 40% downloaded with eight hours to go but I'm assuming it's my ISP melting down.

It's real loving weird hearing the official localized names and how they're pronounced against my memories from the fan translation twenty year ago. Edit: the real purpose of the demo is to figure out whose running animation is too obnoxious to be the lead. YggiDee fucked around with this message at 01:59 on Mar 20, 2020 |

Kevin gets healing in his light classes, too.

Between Charlotte's Elmer Fudd speech and Kevin's 'awkwardly undersocialized' dialogue I think the best third option is Angela with her Sassy Valley-Girl attitude.

Do the elemental saber spells give a damage boost along with the element, or are they solely for hitting weaknesses?

You'll be able to class change at the next Mana Stone you find. And the cannons are straight from the original.

The same creatures appear in two other Mana games where they're benevolent forces for good. However they're fused in pairs and each of those paired monsters are called Malevodons and they're like super evil. So basically they're called Benevodons because the games were translated out of order.

That would just get you the opposite problem in Children of Mana though, why are these friendly spirits called Malevodons???

The annoying part about the ghost ship is that I now have one party member a full level behind the pack and I can't think of a solution that doesn't letting party members die until the straggler catches up.

Okay, so when it says that there's a limited number of stat elixers, does that mean there's a fixed amount I can get from item seeds?

Bruceski posted:I used every rez cup in that fight, though in part I blame that on still being in my second class and it was my third Benevodon. Definitely noticed a spike in enemy difficulty there. I've got Mispolm as the third Benevodon and that's definitely the fastest I wiped in a fight. I might just bail and come back later with a class change if he keeps kicking my rear end. If I can find any ??? Seeds.

# ¿ Apr 27, 2020 06:37 |

When do ??? Seeds start dropping? I grabbed the six free ones that are in the Benevodon dungeons but I got some duplicate items so Kevin's SOL. (Incidentally, how do Fatal Fist and Enlightened compare?)

Nightblade is a very good class but I also think the cape makes Hawkeye look like a dweeb.

Fatal Fist Kevin is kind of a one-trick pony, but that trick is 'transform these enemies into paste', and he's very good at it.

# ¿ Apr 27, 2020 21:12 |

If Kevin's a brawler, he won't get any abilities until the second class change. Kevin's entire job is to punch enemies repeatedly.

I've been giving INT to Kevin but that's because I'm aiming for the '40% extra damage to enemies with status effects' and combining it with the forty ways Hawkeye can poison someone.

You can absolutely get duplicates, I pulled two sets of Dusk Dice so I had to grind seeds to get what I needed.

Honestly the hardest part of a Charlotte-Kevin team is that Kevin gets something absurd like a 40% damage boost at low health and Charlotte will never, ever let me exploit it. I should rebuild her as a Necromancer, it'll give her something to do instead of neurotically manage my HP.

I could set Charlotte not to use items or magic but it seems like a huge waste of a High Priestess. Changing her class will give her some better offensive options at least.
