Seems like all that Falcom twitter posts these days is about that upcoming Trails of Cold Steel musical, which is taking place next January. Hopefully they give us at least something about CS3 before December.

Well, they post news about Tokyo Xanadu too, but I guess no one really cares about that

Also I just began CS1 again and it's agreeably comfy, plus NG+ makes you obscenely strong

maybe this game i wil use alisa

>>14775587
>using alisa

She is good for restoring craft points. Otherwise, use someone else. She is shit

>>14775587
Mean Rean Delay Machine, Laura, Jusis and Emma is best party.

Alisa is ok for CP regen but Gladiator accessories make her sort of moot anyway.

okay i just got to the part where mechas are introduced on CS1, but how the fuck am i gonna finish the game if it keeps crashing on the 2nd fight?

I decided to give it a rest after SIX crashes, jesus fucking christ.

>>14776751
That sounds very strange. On what platform are you playing? I have both CS1 and 2 for PS3 and all I experienced were some slowdowns in some places.

Also, second fight was against S, right? Are you still on foot or using mech already?

>>14776751
Are you using the latest update?

>>14773261
neat

>>14776016
>using poor man's Millium
It's Delay Rean, Angel Jusis, Criminal Alisa and Pandora Emma.

Well I just discovered that the one causing the crash is when I use the Art that makes you Counter. I have to go through all the mecha fights without using it.

Oh well, plat and nightmare mode can wait and I'll head straight to CS2.

>>14782430
Tell that problem to xseed anon.

>>14782430
Yeah, you should report that shit. This is the first I've heard of it.

>>14782430
Never had that problem.
Are you using the latest patch?

So did Zephyr jaegers run a train on Fie when she was still there?

Dorothee this is /m/ not /y/

Almost done with CS1 and its pretty fun so far even if I missed out on a lot of stuff.

Alisa turned out to be a lot better than I was expecting based on what people were telling me before hand.

>>14787091
I think the reason why people have a problem with her is that Falcom kinda ships her as canon pairing with Rean. She isnt as bad as some people say, but still kinda low on my list who I like CS games.

Why is Laura so perfect /m/?

>>14787132
Its kind of expected in any ln/school sim type game for the MC to get a default pairing. It would have bothered me more if she was one of those obnoxious neo-tsunderes but she's rather reasonable outside of the boob incident early on.

>>14787132
Her voice acting also isn't as good as some of the other characters, which doesn't help.

>>14787204
She's one of the better sounding girls imo.

How exactly am I supposed to set up Alisa? None of her stats or abilities seem noteworthy, besides her half-decent ATS, but I don't think I've ever had her but not Elliot or Emma in my party. Whenever I'm forced to use her it feels like she's not accomplishing anything.

Still playing CS1, btw.

>>14787835
Alisa IIRC is the second best offensive mage so spec her for that.

You can also just use her to spam her CP restore craft and support the team.

>>14786199
I ship this.
>>14787835
She is a CP battery at the end of the game, but for now she is useless. Just put her as support member. Just a tip though, make sure you put her and max angel in last battle. It's fun to mock your enemy and their scripted battle.

>>14787835
ATS doesn't really mean as much as you think. The important thing is that her slots are a perfect fit for Criminal and she has good speed. Her crafts are also very good. This easily makes her the second best mage. Actually if you consider your mages as more than just for offense she'd rank higher than Emma. Though to be honest there's very little that spamming Luminous Ray can't fix. Don't fall for the trap of using bigger spells, their cast time and delay timers make them inferior to just spamming one basic spell after another.

Elliot is like the benchwarmer mage. I'd even rank him below Jusis.

>>14787874
［panic］

I love Alisa!

This is apart of Legend Of Heroes right?

I really want to get into these games, what's a good starting point?

>>14789045
Legend Of Heroes: Trails in the Sky

Considering how much I enjoyed both Cold Steel games, waiting for news about third one is painful. And even after it gets released in japland, at least one year wait before its translated.

I wish to hold hands with Kloe.

>>14789045
Trails in the Sky if you're happy to have a really slow start with a pretty old game.

Trails of Cold Steel if you want waifus and more modern gameplay mechanics but still a slow start.

>>14789170
Eh, i am actually a bit positive right now, considering how xseed surprised us with Sen and the fact that the game still has a year to develop. Hatsuu visited TGS last month and i hope she also met falcom to discuss things.

>>14789348
Well, we are getting Fate/Extella from them only few days after japanese release, but comparing translation work from musou game to something like Trails isnt probably best idea.

I still hope that XSEED gets their hands on CS3 very early on, so we wouldnt have to wait so long.

>>14771548
Wait a minute, what in the world is Trails of Cold Steel doing on /m/? My sister bought this game because it was supposed to be like Persona, did it secretly have giant robots under the hood all this time?

>>14789382
Mech battles have a big role in CS2. Not so much in first game though. I dont feel like spoiling you on that one, if you ever end up playing the games yourself, which I recommend

>secretly
Cold Steel II is basically a Super Robot show.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2AQOO75Tao

Also the final boss of Trails in the Sky FC and one of the midbosses of Trails in the Sky SC are giant robots.

>>14788679
If we're rating them on crafts, then Elliot should be rated much better considering how much he carries the team defensively early on on the higher difficulties.

>>14789416
Well hot diggity, the game looked kind of cool before but now I'm going for it.

>>14789416
Wrong music, Valimar's reveal track was this one.

>>14785535
It was actually pretty cute on the Noble Alliance Flagship when the Zephyr guys just go full dadmode about Fie, and just start talking about her grades in school, whether she's eating enough, and making sure Rean doesn't try anything with her. It's funny to imagine an edgy Jaeger band adopting a mascot loli and instantly turning into a group of overprotective dads.

>>14789416
Not to mention one of SC's late-game bosses is literally the Char custom version of FC's final boss.

So why CS1 or 2 never mention anything about Laura's mother? Considering how big role family plays for every character in these games, it just feels very strange. Same thing about her and Victor's surname, S. Arseid. Its never mentioned what that S there even stands for. Another name or what?

Legram and the castle over there feels like huge plot holes too, considering what happens in that castle. Pretty much nothing about it is revealed in the end.

>>14789632
You just want someone to post that S = Sandlot don't you

>>14789632
It might be addressed in CS3 since Falcom could make Laura into another pilot because they will need a playable robot if Rean goes and becomes an antagonist for part of the game.

>>14789418
Well, considering he's the only mage you have early on, that's not really much of an endorsement.

>>14789638
Nah, it's going to be Gaius and the Nordic guardian.

>>14789887
You have Elliot and then they add Alisa to the mix in Chapter 1.

>That resolution to the scene that they teased us with at the very start of CS1

I know that its supposed to be oh well we're safe but it was more funny than anything.

>Laura and Rean question what's the point of studying swordsmanship when tanks exits
>Principal chops up tanks a few chapters later
quality writing

>>14792315
This should have been obvious to anybody who played Trails SC in which a super tank gets beaten up by a bunch of kids with sticks and whips

>>14792580
>whips
Come now, does anyone actually use Schera?

I love Alisa!

>>14793428
Do all adults in these games just undergo surgery to become super humans or something.

How many divine knights are there?
It was mentioned in CS1 right?
Too lazy to replay it.

>>14793541
I think only two are confirmed, Valimar and Ordine. Celine said that Lohengrin castle in Legram had one too, but it disappeared with its Awakener. Taking anything what that cat says should be taken with suspicion though

>>14793541
It's Trails so there's 7 Divine Knights. This is revealed in CS2.

>>14793541
7 Divine Knights
3 (4?) are known by the end of CS2

>>14793442
They are holding back.
Even Cassius is holding back. He is a divine blade yet using a very large stick instead.

>>14793549
>>14793573
>>14793955
7 huh?
They obviously represent the 7 elements then.
Valimar -> mirage
Ordine -> water
Testarossa -> fire
The one in Legram -> time? -> awakened by Arianrhod?
Another one in Nord? -> wind
Only 2 left huh? Maybe they're sleeping in the west.
Ordine was resting in the west too IIRC.

>>14797041
Can't really assume they're based on elements. We've seen 3 in-game and a 4th is named the Palatinate Knight. Purple doesn't match up to the 7 elements unless you stretch it so that a very dark purple almost corresponds to Time's black.

>Persona

Unfortunately, infighting between Falcom fans has ended up having Cold Steel called it that as an lie in an attempt to dissuade people from buying it, it's almost nothing like Persona at all.

You spend like 10% of the game at the school in CS1 and the classes are all lore dumps, there isn't any actual school stuff until right before the final dungeon.

And then the game throws away the school stuff and goes full DOTH THOU DESIRE THE POWER?

But muh waifus, muh bonding events, muh progressively deeper dungeon diving

>>14799486
Honestly being somewhat Persona-ish and having "social link events" might have actually helped the game. Half of Class VII have no development like Eggliot and Windy, just goofy stuff in bonding events.

>>14799500
>Elliot

Does CS2 at least have more of his massive embarrassing dad

>>14799534
Yeah.

>>14799534
It has his awesome dad fucking up Soldats and having actual Soldat squads retreat from his tanks.

>>14801286

>>14799500
Jusis is the only one of them that's an actual character and not just a walking animu stereotype.

>>14801348
Jusis is a tsundere. That's as cliche as you can get.

So I had nothing better to do and looked up Cold Steel over at TV Tropes. All the blatantly wrong information and speculation being presented as fact is triggering me.

You could just edit it.

>>14801587
Probably because she is a cat and not a cute girl. I know a cat is fine too, but not everyone believes that.

>>14802353
If there's anything they did right it's by not having the cat transform into a person. That's overdone.

>>14805334
I think they just thought before release that she would be the most popular or something, so Falcom put her up front for all marketing things. As you said, she's not really any more relevant than any one else, so you gotta wonder what was up there.

>>14805503
She had a very main heroine role along in the prototype. But then something changed.

>>14805334
Isn't she now building tanks and guns and airships for Osborne to oppress Crossbell with?

>>14805550
No? She just helps run the company that produces tanks and shit for the army.

>>14805503
Rixia and Lloyd has same vote. It's not fair for Elie.

>>14789369
Late reply, but that isn't likely. Falcom has a habit of not letting localization companies anywhere near their games until it's been released in Japan. That's more than likely why the whole Tokyo Xanadu debacle is happening. CS3 ain't coming out in America for at least a year after the Japanese release, unless Falcom changes their policies suddenly.

>>14805503
Alisa is the equivalent to a default love interest of a VN. And considering they still push the Alisa and Rean thing Falcom doesn't give a shit. Then again Japanese are accepting if their favorite girl doesn't win the MCbowl.
>>14805605
I can understand wanting to keep things a secret. Especially since some localizers are rather loose lipped.

>>14805570
So she's producing tanks for Osborne to oppress people with then.

>>14805453

I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top swordsman in the entire Erebonian armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the orbal net? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of RMP across Erebonia and your orbment is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the Imperial Army and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

I don't think she was really a Rei clone. Fie reminded me of Kei from Muvluv more than anything, she had that same sense of humor.

Dude just wants to get rid of all the foreign influences on Erebonia, and keep his country's position of strength. While these foreign influences include the Bracers and Church, it also includes Ouroborous. I would love to see Rean in the antagonist role though, the Crossbell part was so cool.

Yeah, there was a fan translation slated for a Dec. 2016 release, but I haven't heard anything about it for a while. Google could probably turn up some posts for the status.

As for CS, you might want to consider buying a cheap used/hacked PS3 or something. It's a system with quite a few good games, so I'm sure you could find some games other than CS to make the purchase worth it. That, or wait a couple years, I'm sure PS3 emulation will happen someday.

On the other hand, you could always just spam clock down. It's a hideously powerful debuff, and for some reason, not even Loewe is immune to it. And you're going have access to it, because running one or two high-grade time quartz on every single character is a good idea to begin with.

>>14826283
Depends on if you're going for platinum and how good your first run is. Usually it's either all carry overs or carry over items + bond points. Assuming a good first run either can get you platinum.

TO: R. SCHWARZER c/o THE FACULTY, THORS MILITARY ACADEMY

It has come to my attention that at several times you have privately expressed desire to perform dishonourable acts with Her Grace LS Arseid. Further to our meeting at Legram, when you chose not to disclose your true intentions, I am driven to write this.

I, the Radiant Blademaster, am a hero of numerous actions against this nation's enemies with a record of several hundred foes defeated. I have furthermore been entrusted with captaincy of the Courageous, HRH Olivier's personal airship. What this means is self-evident. I can find you, and I can discuss this matter with you, and I doubt even Valimar can get you out of my reach.

It has also reached my notice thanks to the Reinford Company that you have been distributing photographs of my daughter on the orbal net. At this moment I am co-operating with the RMP and the Reinford Company in locating your Arcus unit so we may discuss how the aforementioned photo-quartz may be dealt with.

It is worth knowing that not only have I personally bested you with and without a sword, I have consulted with Generals Muller and Craig and they agree that a significant portion of the Imperial Army's strength can be diverted to arranging our meeting.

Maybe in future you will realise that the honour of the Arseid name is a matter of some concern to me.

Yours,

Viscount Arseid

Does the ailment quartz's proc chance stack with arts/crafts' proc chance?

I just played through CS1/CS2 casually without exploiting/cheesing/breaking the game so I'm just wondering.

>>14830912
Yeah it does.

So if you have Impede 1 and Impede 2, Zeus Gem, and Arc Slash, you could literally just delay almost every single enemy in the game, even if they only have 10% chance to be delayed. Obviously it won't on 0

Man, I really regret doing CS1 on Hard difficulty. So many things you could exploit in the game and only the first few bosses are the hard parts (barring the Laura/Fie VS Rean/Machias fight where Rean can just use his S-Break on you because he can be an asshole like that).

>>14831158
Nightmare isnt exactly harder.

>>14829881
They will get taken out by tanks.

>>14831213
Yeah, kinda figured considering I've been breezing through Hard easily.

>>14831327
Even on nightmare, the chapter 6 boss fight is really the only difficult one cause of the delay immunity. The real final battle (with Valimar) can be bullshit if you go into in blind since it's guesswork until you see the pattern and by then you might be too damaged to catch up.

>>14831938

The difficulty is kinda weird, like you can break the game and be invincible/never let the enemy attack/spam 500k damage s-crafts, or don't do the above and be hit for 20k arts every turn and take every status effects. Let the enemies in the Infernal Castle get some turns and they can really nuke your team.

>>14832058
I really can't understand the logic of CS2. They made it so you can't cheese with Shield/Reflect as much cause bosses can strip them but then they removed the damage cap so you can just nuke them for 500k right at the start.

>>14773469

>>14832058
It's pretty much the same with all Trails games. Once you learn how to break the game you are broken.

>>14832393

>>14836164
You usually do it near the end of the game mid-game.
For the trails trilogy you increase your speed and spam earth wall.

I forgot, what was the reason why Osborne needed to invade Crossbell? Other than making the empire even richer and bigger?

Reminder, you need to pair Rean with the girl you dislike the most.
Because when Rean becomes a swordsmaster his wife will die.

It seems no one has made kiseki relationship chart. With all those characters we definitely need one.

>>14836164
Having Rean already puts things in your favor. Arc Slash is pretty overpowered. The basic strategy is to stack speed and the 3 delay quarts on him and most enemies won't ever get a turn. The really broken stuff are S-Craft/Break nukes, timebender Machias, or rapidcast Arts.

Fuck achievements.

Gonna replay CS1 again, is it possible to break the game like CS2?

I played it casually last time and that last old schoolhouse boss took me an hour.

Man, you weren't kidding, delay is indeed a powerful effect. I ignored it for a while and only now I decided to give it a try and see how enemies slower than Rean never get a single turn. And you guys says he gets even more broken in CS2?

Get the highest bonding with Sharon before starting Act 2 and you'll get an equipment called the Black Virtue that basically is Impede + Delay all in one.

Arc Slash is going to be the single most used craft you'll ever use and it works even if bosses have 10 resistance to delay.

>>14849306
Just remember about the cap damage.

>>14850125
Is Emma the main heroine of CS2? I feel like she's got the most story and backstory out of the cast aside from Rean and Crow thanks to her connection with the main villain Vita.

>>14850565
Not really. Like most of the main cast, she's related to someone important but not actually important herself. The sole exception might be Jusis since he's practically ruling a 4th of the Empire now.

The main girl is actually Celine and that's ok cause a cat is fine too.

>>14850565
She did, but it wasn't just because of her connection to Vita. It's her connection to the legends of Erebonia and the Divine Knights, as one of the Hexenbreed.

>>14848948

>>14851651

>>14851651
And then they wonder why Rean decided to to turn evil and Fuck Altina.

>>14851661
Except the rest of the classes probably went on to continue with their second year at Thors. Despite all the bullshit about the strength of their relationships within the class, each of them pretty much abandoned Rean to do their own thing and not continue on with their second year.

>>14851744
Actually Class VII is a one-year acceleration program.
Rean is repeating a year because he's dumb.

How gay are the extra scenes of the guys if you choose them at the last bonding event(at trista)? My only option is Alisa and her scenes are the cliche romantic ones.

>>14851818
Not that gay, no matter how much based imouto and alfin want it

>>14851825
unles you're talking about CS2 in which case i dunno lol

>>14851826
Well I forgot to mention CS2 so yeah that's what I'm wondering about.

Rean managed to get a kiss or two from Alisa and the usual "I wanna stay here with you" moment on CS2 if you picked her. Don't know how gay it is if it's from one of the guys.

>>14851846
Well, his one true waifu is Crow so it didn't really matter even if you chose Alisa to kiss anyway.

>>14851846
Final bond event with males is just bros forever kind of thing. Your masculinity is safe. Though if you were a real man you'd have picked Sara.

>>14852164

>>14852342
Tauros + Domination will turn any of the Phys DPS characters into a one use s-break nuke, so that would be the highest damage for Laura. Vermillion is good on Rean if you have him set up for delay, but if you don't need that delay then the Tauros + Domination setup does the most amount of damage on him due to ogreload.

>>14852371
What is Domination? Did a miss something again?

>>14852386
It's a super rare quartz you get from the prince himself if you've been keeping up with your rank.

You get it pretty decently early in the A rank too IIRC.

>>14852386
Domination doubles the damage of the first attack/craft per fight.

>>14852371

>>14852463
Probably Milium.

Laura isn't even top 3. Of the actual cast it's Rean > Millium = Sara. Millium does a wee bit more damage cause of higher STR but Sarah can cause Faint.

Does Domination work with arts? I've been trying to clear this stupid level 5 training facility with the magic shit and I keep dying thanks to this 100% accuracy tail move these enemies do that Fie will just Faint on it.

>>14852533
Hades is the Arts counterpart of Domination

>>14852533
Never mind; I forgot about Overdrive and its instant cast.

Is there any easier way to actually hunt for monster ingredients? Been trying to farm that 77 CP hotpot for the final dungeon and there's almost no reliable way to grab any of these monster ingredients.

>>14852533
Just OD the lost art nukes with Hades.

>>14852261
He only really cares about the sisters and Claire, and to a minor extent Rufus. He doesn't really give a shit about Giliath because >Crow.

>>14852819
Man, I miss floor 6 of the first game /m/. Awesome source of those Hearty Powders with that one group of floating mask enemies that can easily be killed with Millium's S-Break + Maxed out Force.

Valimar is mai waifu

I think it was Globby Fat that was the cooking bottleneck for me in CS1. White Beast Flesh too but you can sorta grind that by fishing if you had a lot of bait. I never really did exploit Moebius and cooking much because I hated grinding for monster ingredients.

>Choosing Sara.
>Getting NTRd
No thank you.

>>14853089
I think mine was the Clear Gelatin in the first game.

Now it's the Chitinous Shell and the Hearty Powder for the second game.

Like father, like son after all.

Lv.5 Murakumo if you have Waterfall and Domination :^)
Ice Crown helps too.

Any tips for farming U-Materials?
I'm using:
>Lv.5 Emblem MQ
>Deus Gem
>Chrono Burst
>Lost Arts
on Lv.3 Arts training room.

>>14854579
That's pretty much the best place you can pull that off. Have some Ep Cuts too I guess.

I wonder if being a "mixed" is a hereditary thing.

>Fie is a meme stray cat girl
>her English VA is now playing an actual cat in Persona 5
It's like pottery

>Page 10

It was nice while it lasted. It was good to know /m/ likes the trails games and thanks for the memes and the tips about how to break the games, I sure will crush them once I buy CS2

>>14853109
Sara is pure and best waifu. Just you wait until manly CS3 Rean, once she gets the headpat it's over.

Oh please, we already know who his one true waifu/hasubando is.

>>14855972
Rean doesn't look that manly enough judging from the floating CS3 art. He looks as old as Crow.

Sure, he looks cool and badass but not close to the level of Sara's tastes.

>>14856121
but the relationship fortune said she should broaden her horizons!

>>14856169
Everyone loves Osborne as you can see from talking from random girls in Heimdallr. Rean is young Osborne without the bracer killing. He'll grow up to be literally perfect for Sara.

So I'm using a Phantasmal Mirror to grab Vita and I used it on Emma.

Is it just me or do guest characters not get any benefits from either Domination or Hades? I have Emma equipped with Hades and Vita isn't doing any damages that Emma normally can with Hades equipped.

How far are we along in the overall timeline. If they ever make a game with all the protags will Estelle be like 6 years older than in Sky?
