Many times. Cassius + accessories are quite good. Well, as long as you have a way to prevent getting fried by Cassius, you're fine.

A Richard with Gladiator Belt, Super Gladiator Belt, and Carnage on his equipment looks reckless but fun. I don't know if its possible on higher difficulties though.

>>182908645
I'm pretty sure Machias prefers older girls.

>>182912618
Super headband + belt is better, since headband increases CP recovery per hit, and coupled with the belt makes him do it forever.

>>182912992
Well, I need the Super Headband for Grail Sphere for Kevin. So, I resort on using the Belts for Richard instead. Kevin goes for support on the Team with Renne on me. The Immunity on the team always turns to dust thanks to Cassius.

With Gladiator Belt and Super Gladiator Belt, Richard can do crafts for about 10 times or more. A good Calamitous Blast is all I need anyway if I need to restore his CP. 1 hit on an enemy with that setup restores around 30 - 40 CP so with Loewe creating clones, it goes more.

One wrong thing I did on my first nightmare arena run is to use Genesic Barrier. Seriously, what is the purpose of it if it makes your whole team immune to supportive spells as well? And the duration of it is quite long, making it a dangerous buff instead. Just use Silent Cross if you're fast enough of you need to avoid enemy arts.

not that bad actually when you think about it. Both are from commoner backgrounds technically.

something that isn't discussed often from trails of cold steel is how the 1st games monthly field trip pairs has the following happen:
Machias and Fie are always paired all 6 months
Elliot is grouped with Fie/Machias for the last 4 months straight
Jusis and Emma are paired all 6 months
Gaius is with Jusis and Emma for 5 months
Elliot is NEVER grouped with Jusis or Emma
Gaius is only grouped with the following people for only a single month: Elliot, Machias, Fie
everyone is grouped with Rean exactly 3 times, with the exception of Gaius (only twice)

in trails of cold steel 2, when given the choice after everyone escapes in the courageous and they go their separate ways, Machias and Fie with Elliot are working together in Celdic and Jusis and Emma with Laura head over to Legram

so the other more "favored" pairings such as LauraxFie and GaiusxElliot are only every grouped twice and once (respectively) but Machias/Fie and Jusis/Emma are together for all 6 months and stay together at the start of cold steel 2...

Tita obviously has a school girl crush on Agate but why the fuck do some people think Agate likes Tita in anyway other than a sister?

Why is Richard so based?

>>182923040
Cassius knows everyone important there is to know in Liberl, he surely knows her, but didn't feel the need to mention her. She's famous enough of an Engineer that he'd have some info on her.
Plus since he knew Dan, i'd guess he would have meet Erika.

>>182923182
Falcom wants the lolicon audience

>>182923182
Because everyone in the game keeps pushing them together, and Agate has a soft spot for her, even if he doesn't see her romantically. Who knows, it may change in Sen III.

>>182923050
They all have -100% DEF craft. They don't need any other weapons.

>>182923182
Because shippers. Both real life people and the characters in the games think his feelings aren't important and he's somehow obligated to reciprocate it. It's terrible but if falcom itself wants it there's nothing you can do.

>>182924119
I was thinking for balance reasons, so you can't have a melee character with super good arts without sacrificing their melee efficiency, and casters won't get good arts variety without sacrificing their melee efficiency.

Or something like that. It's just an idea that crossed my mind.

Wasn't expecting it. Did you guys also notice it pretty early on? I think i talked to someone in the restaurant first before thinking "wait, that hair color...".

>>182924315
It balanced because in order to get good arts, you'd need one or two lines maximum which hurts the ability to stack ailments/status reduction quartz. Likewise its the opposite for melee characters since in order to get the most of the ability to place ailments on every line, you'd have to ruin your ability to get the more complex spells.

>>182924918
I did the exact same thing you did.

Asked random NPCs for about 5 minutes, before putting the hair colour connection together.

>>182924918
I solved it as soon as I saw the picture.

>>182925002
Yeah but, it's not nearly as varied as an Enigma due to lack of sepith count, which is what i'm getting at. Even Rixia talks about how the Arcus feels more suited for combat, but has a lesser selection of arts due to that.
I really liked the whole count thing, so i'm kinda hoping they bring it back at some point.

Is Tokyo Xanadu a yay or a nay?

>>182926352
Yay

>>182926352
An anon played through it and was posting from time to time and thought it was decent enough.

If you carry over Mira and Sepith in Cold Steel, when do you get it?

>>182927153
I think that if you carryover, you'll have all of it right from the start. At least that's how it is from Sky to Ao. Haven't played Cold steel yet.

>>182925405
It's a mixed bag. If you want an specific arc you only need certain quartz or certain level with a master quartz. However, if you want a specific set of arts and stats buffs it may get trickier.

>>182926352
Yay if you like crap like Cold Steel, it's basically Ys-lite mixed with Cold Steel style Trails. I will give it one thing, the characters are a lot better than Cold Steel and the protagonist is miles better than Rean.

Has Mueller ever said anything positive about Olivier?

Surely Osborne must know by now that he can't really count on Millium being loyal, right? I mean maybe even Altina too.

>>182931810
Osborne's subordinates are either shady as fuck or wet for Rean's dick. I don't think he expect them to stay loyal until the end.

Fighter Elena should happen outside just Ys vs. Sora no Kiseki. That Genos heritage probably gave her the same latent abilities Chester has, and she could recover and use the purple emel sword.

>>182906063
Seven can do good (at least Ys VI's Steam numbers, plus) if XSEED bothers to tweet about it in advance, and get some website coverage plz. And it needs to come out next month before people save their money for VIII. Just the Trail 3rd buzz treatment would help a lot.

>>182922804
Akatsuki's portrait artist smites most Trails illustrators, and resembles the Enami style at first glance while still being different enough to fit. I don't know why Falcom can't or won't contract this person.

>>182923050
They only job alone.

>>182923661
Either another lady Bracer we already know (it's been a year and a half, so maybe Sara's fine settling for a manly dude a bit younger than her) or someone we haven't met.

I can see AgateTita being forced by the writers or denied in a way that ties back to how much he sees her as a kid sister, and how she can't use him as both an emotional and romantic crutch forever. He also doesn't want to deal with Erika, so that's one reason not to advance a relationship when he could instead help Tita date elsewhere. Agate had better get a Divine Knight or at least the highest-tier Orbal Mech which can wreck Soldats with ease.

>>182930497
Pic related makes that cheese look easier than it is, but Gruda's still a disappointment after the major solo-human boss at the end of Seven (Scias). Akasha-Glyph is even worse despite the music.

Canon strong characters usually will have better role in the party, like great crafts or special stats. Joshua, Richard, Randy, Sara, etc.

But Millium was also in Class VII in Rean's mind? Or is she literally talking about at that moment.

I can only imagine how broken this would get past like the very beginning.

>>182933760
She's talking about the new Class VII. Going by what she says in the dorms, she got pressed back into service for Osborne. I'm guessing when the need for a supervisor for Rean came up then Millium asked for it but Altina got picked instead.

>>182936307
but at the same time, recall that ATS is often very strongly correlated with the arts optimization of one's orbment. therefore it seems like that wouldn't be near as OP once stats start sharply diverging and enemies' ADF goes up. it'd certainly be OP for support arts like earth wall or (shudder) zodiac tho.

>>182936307
I can see this working with the arcus system, you can easily limit it to spells attached to the elementally locked slots, thus choosing a linked partner varies the cross-arts. and make it cost brave points.

also I wonder if they will ever allow link attacks on arts cast~

That's likely a different model altogether.

Just in case anybody was holding out for an official localization:

>Bear in mind that with Zero and Ao, the porting is kind of the least of our problems -- it's the huge amount of localization that makes those games such daunting prospects. So regardless of our propensity for porting titles to PC these days, Zero and Ao are still not games we'd be inclined to grab on a whim. They would require tremendous amounts of resources and funding compared to other projects, and thus would have to be planned out well in advance, and we'd have to be absolutely certain they'd do well for us before we could convince the higher-ups to let us do them.

>...Not trying to dash your hopes, but I do feel it's important to bring you guys down to earth a bit so you're not disappointed if Zero and Ao don't happen. I've seen a lot of people say that they now have renewed hope for Zero and Ao, but we've been saying all along that those games would be mammoth undertakings for us, and just because we're more port-positive than we have been in the past doesn't really mean either game is any more likely than before to be localized by us. I'd say the odds are the same as they ever were, DESU.

>Tom

Play Zero with the unedited translation then Ao with the spreadsheet.

>>182950282
No worries. It's not like kiseki is exclusive to xseed so if they don't localize it, falcom can just find another partner.
>Falcom fans and our readers will kill me if I don’t ask whether there are plans to localize Zero no Kiseki and Ao no Kiseki in the west.

Nah.

>>182950282
He also said that there's less games for them to localize now. Even if Crosbell is massive, it's not like they have tons of options these days. Personally I think he's just learned to be more careful about what he says.

>>182958356
It's really just Wazy because after playing 3rd, learning his true identity would explain a lot of things.

Arios fighting Lloyd won't tell you anything as long as you didn't know who the true mastermind is.

Being spoiled about Kevin coming back only ruins the prologue. You know he'll eventually go to Crossbell after that. And stuff like IBC blowing up is already in the trailer.

Honestly, the trailer spoil more than the Evo OP.

Just in case you guys want to know, the master quartz arts that you gain when they reach level 5, depends on the element it has in Ao no kiseki. I think they area basically this:

Summon = Use once and move after
Constant= Use and the character can't move until you stop the effect

Earth
>Summon: Everyone gains craft shield
>Constant: Normal attacks and crafts recover 20% HP per hit

Water:
>Summon: 50% HP recovery for everyone
>Constant: Damage is halved

Fire
>Summon: 50 CP recovery for everyone
>Constant: Normal attacks and crafts have their damage multiplied by 1.5

Wind
>Summon: Arts reflect once
>Constant: Arts damage multiplied by 1.5

Time
>Summon: AT is set to 0 (AT advance)
>Constant: Attacks deal a small amount of AT delay

Space
>Summon: Immunity for everyone
>Constant: Arts damage recovers 20% HP

Mirage
>Summon: Stealth for everyone
>Constant: EP consumption is halved

So those cards illustrations are basically spoilers, right?

>>182964087
Maybe? You won't really know what the hell is happening, unless when the time to feature said sep-terrion arrives but so far the ones shown have been true like.

Space = Guardian dragon, and the balance trying to "weight" what's good for humanity.

Mirage = Sentient treasure, who had a wolf as a guardian. Guided people towards the right path.

As for the rest, you can only take guesses but most likely earth is going to have a turtle guardian, Fire and time as related in some way, since the old man featured in then seems to be the same one, Wind has something related to an eye maybe implying an all seeing thing, and water has a lady featured, but outside of that not much to go on.

Water - Healing

Earth - Control over septium veins and other things required to control the earth

Fire and Time are almost certainly opposites and I wouldn't be surprised if that was the duality they were going for considering that backstory dump about the Great Power and whatever.

>>182966394
I am. I'm not particularly interested in the main cast but I'm pretty excited for Erebonia and its NPCs.

You know what would make all this shit stop? Information. XSeed needs to put out a blogpost talking about the dub, lack of jpn voices and release date.

>why does the gameplay looks like neptunia games? is it similar?
What the fuck, no. Not at all.

The one where Falcom's president states the dual audio thing is just a matter of money.

Immunity protects you against Arts and physical, Crafts shield blocks only physical, and arts reflect throw back arts at the enemy.

You activate it by moving the attack cursor to the side when the bar is full, it increases your STR by 20%, CP regen every turn for everyone by 20 CP, arts and crafts may sometimes work for free, and arts are insta cast, and everyone gets turns while it's in effect and the enemy won't. It's good to be used right before the enemy attacks for max efficiency.

There's a disturbing lack of Elie in this thread

Wouldn't that just be from their side? I imagine he was talking about Falcom's policy on Japanese voices, but wouldn't there be other steps to take for the voice actors and other things? Or is it just a matter of money from their side too?

Yeh exactly, I don't understand why they're not being honest about it.

Original feels like each character is more stylised, evo is just modern sameface as you said.

I thought that this was supposed to be Nightmare Mode. That final boss went down like if it was a miniboss, what a joke. To me Cassius was the real final boss.

>>182974323
Its because of Earth Wall, its attack speed is slower than your earth wall/grail sphere speed. Evo fixed it by making its s-crafts bypass immunity.

>>182974472
How do you even survive it's nightmare s-break. Bring Zin/Tita with Water gem or abuse proxy puppets?

>>182974604
Just spam defence boosts and make sure you take it at full health.

>>182974323
Cassius should be black pikkard tier boss.
A boss that is not meant to be fought in the main game.

>Evo fixed it by making its s-crafts bypass immunity.
Holy shit. It now comes on full buffing to survive S-Crafts in evo now?

Nice, I'll accept that explanation!

>>182974671
if it works like the all cancel moves in CS, buffs are also cancelled, so the only thing to do is to build some defense on them.

Its the best possible explanation.

I wouldn't put that much stock into Kondo's words. There's a lot of naivete about how PR works, and the reality is he's a calculated guy who knows how to sidestep questions.

An example of this is how he completely ignored a question about CS3's localization to talk about Dogi.

For Japanese voices, he wasn't going to throw a Japanese VA agency under the bus, so he just described a general obstacle that would need to be considered in negotiations. It's a classic non-answer, and it frees him divulging specifics that make them look bad. He's not in a position where he can admit Falcom made the mistake of using a studio where usage rights outside of Japan was an issue, and I suppose this is something they quietly fixed for newer games.
