Etrian Odyssey General

Necromancer a shit.

bump until everyone wakes up and moves to the new thread

I hope EOV does more with treasure chests. I liked the Mimics in EOU2, but that was only in one area.

I always wondered why there was that little confirmation message asking you if you want to open this chest you found, since there's never something dangerous inside. Could be a some trapped treasure chests in an ancient temple, random Mimics that appear on different floors, or insects that make their nest in old treasure chests.

Honestly, I could do with more dungeon events in general. Random events, for example, would be nice. It'd make the troll events stand out more, too. You see an extremely kickable-looking rock on the ground. Kick the rock?

>>134833075

>Trapped treasure chests

As long as there's not like 22 trap possibilities like Class of Heroes, id be down.

>the Voice Acting is better

I don't know. As much as Raquna was my favourite character, she went from no accent to Bob and Doug MacKenzie on a whim.

>>134845884

U2 has good voice acting but lacks Kupala.

But honestly both games have pretty decent voice acting. The only thing that really bugged me was that Simon tends to say 'It got behind us!' when you try but fail to run from an enemy, even when fighting the tree FOEs in the desert.

Honestly how can those things even prevent you from running away. hahaha nigga just walk away from the FOE close your eyes haha

>>134846410
EO2U has a good selection of bad voices though.
Partially stemming from the cast (both party and NPCs) not being as bland as EOU's.

Princess classes are always nice. The one in 7th Dragon is really fun to play with a Rogue or Knight in your party.

>>134855486
Rogue & Princess reacts were the best thing ever.
I still think 7th D has better party building and class synergy than any of the EOs.

7th Dragon is pretty fun, though taking damage from the Bloom can be kinda fucking annoying, and having to buy so many fucking healing fruits if you decide to make a party without a cleric can be annoying. I still need to finish the game at some point.

I'm looking forward to VFD whenever it gets released in English.

>>134856618
I didn't find that much issue in bloom damage, it's just a matter of stopping every so often to heal up before you get a new random encounter. What annoys me more is how every dragon battle feels like doing the same thing over and over again against HP sponges, and it gets pretty boring at some point.
Those delicious animal ears, mota art and Samurai bodysuit though.

Where's the fun in party building if you don't play around with the classes? Also you can specialize the characters differently which makes them relatively unique.

I think a lot of the extras and NPCs in Untold 2 kinda blew. But Arianna aside, at least all of the main party is cast and directed well, even if Chloe slipped out of her voice every so often and Flavio had a handful of weird takes. They also should've swapped Bert's Boost and Break lines, though

>>134849406
Japan didn't offer the art book as a pre-order bonus. What America got was a sampler book, on top of the CD that Japan was already giving away. We do need some company like Udon to localize the Etrian art books, though. I mean, they released the book for a game that was never localized, so they must not need huge margins.

>>134872176
Yes

>>134872347

>>134893870
There are no wrong choices when it comes to making your party. Just easier and harder ones. Best to go for a versatile party if you're starting out, but there's nothing wrong with having two of a single class in your party. You can recruit even more members who stay benched, after all.
If you want to redistribute skill points, you can do so at the Explorer's Guild, for the low cost of two levels for the member you're re-speccing. Remember that if you want to try another approach for s new dungeon or boss you're struggling with, you can do just that.
Keep your health high in dungeons, just to avoid being taken down too easily if you get ambushed.

Don't touch the statues.

Would any of you guys read an Etrian Odyssey story that's around novella length? I've had five main characters and a basic story for the first stratum for a week or so now and I was going to start writing it. I'm just curious if anyone would actually be interested in reading it.

>>134901349
Maybe I'd put the medic on he back row, unless you're really using them for offence.
Otherwise, don't worry about it. I'm surprised you can fight them competently already after just starting up the game. FOEs are not to be taken as lightly as normal enemies.

Remember, you can recruit additional members in other classes to try out if you're not comfortable with your current guild.

The Medic is really just for support. I never thought about three at the back and two at the front. I should give that a try.

Also, I haven't taken on any of the FOEs yet. I've tried, but get instantly trounced. I'm only level 12. I also don't know what other classes have good synergy with what I've already got, to I don't want to exclude some of my party and have them lag behind in levels for something that may ultimately not work.

Huh, I was sure the red bears were FOEs. Oh well.
In any case, synergy in EO4 is really only case of how well a class can buff each other and augment damage.
A Runemaster will work well with a Landy, a Sniper will work well with a Nightseeker, and so on.

My first EO4 party was an offensive Dancer and versatile Fortress on the front, with a Sniper, Runemaster and Medic on the back. Not the best for synergy, but I did pretty damn well with it once I got into the swing of things.

Oh, nice. My characters are based off of my IV run, but I'm putting it in an original region. What are their names?

>>134914909
Lisa's the landshark, Anna's the fortress, Fiora's the comfymaster, Max is the sniper and then I just used my name for the self insert. In hindsight I probably should have changed the name, but I wanted to keep it as close to my IV as possible, keeping in line with the tone of EO.

>>134917291
I already describe quite a bit. My biggest problem is mostly that my writing is clunky. Transitioning from descriptions to dialogue to actions to thoughts feels unnatural, so I'm hoping to find the errors in my writing as I analyze what I wrote.

Shit camera quality aside, you'd have to be blind to think that looks as bad Sader. They're not the best figs, but I have the gunner fig and it's better than anything in the BQ line out there, and these were 3000-4000 yen figs

I wasn't much of a buyfag back then because I was in college and poor so I don't know too much about figs from before 2008, but again they look better in person. They're better than prize figs and they're better than current BQs, some which do go for prices that are just not worth it. If you're a fan of EO and you can get them close to the original prices, then they're good figs, and the ronin and gunner are both better made than the protector and medic, so that's why those 2 are always much more expensive

Exactly which of the Etrian games on 3ds are good for a newcomer?
I have fallen for the shills hard, but the only good one I somewhat trust is Etrian Mystery Dungeon because of Chunsoft's track record.

>>134977538
4 or U2

>>134977538
EOIV

>>134977538
EOUII has the most quality of life to it, I'd suggest picking up there

you'll want to force yourself to play Expert difficulty though, so that you don't learn bad habits.

>>134977538
IV and Untold 2 are both good starting spots. I'd recommend IV, though, because it lets you get away with more class combinations, isn't as hard out of the gate, and doesn't have U2's HP bloat that encourages a more offensive playstyle. Both have demos, though. IV's has full party customization, while U2's only gives you the story mode party to work with.

>the only good one I somewhat trust is Etrian Mystery Dungeon because of Chunsoft's track record

I let you know in a year or so.

>>134978156
So EMD is shit compared to the Pokemon ones, or shit compared to EO?

>>134978121
The huge problem with V is that isn't out yet and we want to play already. EOIV's problem is that it's extremely easy and not really that fun. The first Untold is fun, however, you're more or less forced to play Story Mode if you want to get the 100% completion, but aside from that it's a remake of the first EO game that improved on everything.

tips for EO3?

>>134978121
>V
not out yet. I guess that's problematic.
>Legends of the Titan
That's IV, which is a good place to start. We sometimes shit on it because it's kinda easy, but it's a good place to start because of it.
>First Untold
Improvement on EO1, but not as well executed as a remake as the second Untold is for 2. Still a good game, if I wasn't playing FE right now I'd be working my way through.

>Untold 1
Still good, but not as beginner-friendly. The grimoire system that was introduced to make up for the lack of subclassing in the old games is very shitty in U1, and though it's optional, it makes 100%-ing the game easier. It also locks most of the new additions to story mode. Untold 2 fixed a lot of these structural problems, though.

>>134978276
Both. Throughout the main campaign, it's so easy that none of the design faults present themselves that apparently, but once you get into the post-game, which makes up more than half of the actual content, things fall off a cliff. The game's swarming with bugs, too.

>>134978492

> Not liking IV

I will never get this. It's on the easy side but it's about the most user friendly, incident filled game in the genre, has phenomenal player flexibility and, in Strata 2, 4 and 6, some of the best locations too. It's such a natural start point.

>>134979579
Literally the only reason I got attracted to the EO series was because it wasn't easy like most shitty RPGs out there like Final Fantasy. EOIV provides no challenge whatsoever aside from a few RNG bullshit from the lightning dragon.

>>134977489
Unless some kind of arcane magic went on the making of that photo, that medic and that paladin are far worse than anything I've seen Wave output recently.

The ronin and gunner don't look good either, but I'll admit that they're far better than anything brands like Furyu would make.

>>134980165
Anything with a hoplite and a monk is "cookie-cutter". You have tons of flexibility.

Does anyone have any numbers on the monster skill grimoires in EO2U? I was wondering how much effect skill levels have. TP cost seems to be constant between levels, so I guess the difference between a level 5 and a level 10 monster skill won't be huge, either, right?

I want to put Cry Soul on my Fafnir for when Flavio pulls off a random leg bind but it's only level 3.

>>134979851
EO4 is easy because you already know what to expect from an EO game, and it's pretty balanced so you don't have to exploit a team specifically built to kill certain bosses(unless you want to do no chemicals, but that wasn't really expected of you). You can die due one bad blindside in 4 just like in any other game. If I go into EO2 with a hexer with poison and torpor, guess what? I just trivialized half of the game, now all that is left is for me to abuse force skills with a DH and ronin.

They went through all 20 male voices in the stream and I didn't hear Koyasu's voice there at all.

Then again, I also got Nakata's mixed up with Ono Daisuke's.
