After looking around, apparently TEC only applies to Alchemists and not anyone else? So just go full STR on the Gunner? What about Hexers?

Gosh, you guys are pathetic.

Except for that one point of TEC Up required to get Medishot if you're going Medic-less

TEC also affects all healing skills as well as evasion of opposing TEC attacks. Hexer skills only really benefit from LUC, but it's hardly a priority compared to maxing the curses you want to use.

What was your first EO experience like?

Mine was EOIII and I did everything wrong. I grinded 10 hours in the first stratum just to be able to survive the second stratum. I completely ignored sea quests until I got to the third stratum. I somehow managed to just rush and beat the 4th stratum without mapping it and I gave up on the 5th stratum once I got to the no map gimmick.

Spending hours drawing maps on the toilet was amazing though.

>>169164569
I played EOIII first aswell
I made the mistake of having a royal instead of a dedicated healer, because I loved the strange journey passive heal system. I eventually scrapped my first whole party and made a simple but strange party, very good memories.
Either way if it weren't for the good writing of the game, I never would have stuck with it.

since the thread is dying I might as well ask my stupid question
for my landsknecht after a reset at level 23, should I invest my points in double slice or sonic raid?
she is my main damage dealer and so far sonic raid was good, however the cost of double slice makes me wonder if 3 sonic raids will deal more damage or a single double cut

Go with Double slice.
The benefit of sonic raid is moving first, but if you have vanguard, I don't think there's a reason to keep using it.

>tfw I'm having my first EO experience right now
everything is fairly good so far, I mapped everything perfectly with the power of autism and gods be damned this game is the epitome of comfy when you play it in a cold winter night under a blanket
the only fuck up I can think of is the early game skill point assignment for my medic and taking a dancer instead of another class of damage dealer

>>169171769
Dancer can be a good damage dealer.
Sword Dance lets their normal attack hit 1-4 times. The Nightseeker's Blade Flurry doubles that to 2-8 times - although the offhand hits will only do 30% damage so it's more useful if you use bind/ailment forges since more hits means more chances to inflict stuff.
Rush Dance lets you do a normal attack whenever another party member attacks or uses an offensive skill. Together that means your Dancer will just be slashing away like a maniac.
It gets even more crazy if you use a Link-Landy as every single strike of Sword Dance counts as a new action so it has a 100% chance to cause the Link to activate. Which usually maxes out your Link-proccs every single turn.

>>169164569
I sold every Formaldehyde I found because it sounded useless.

>>169173630
It's a thing of beauty - but why are EO2 and EO2U on the same level?
All you need in EO2 is a Hexer for the game to bend over and call you daddy but EO2U needs at least a semblance of a real party (if only to feed Fafnir sterioids so he can blow stuff up). Als their levels of polish are worlds apart.

>>169176612
Still the best

How much defence is needed in EO2U?

If I try to make a chase team work with

Fafnir/Landsknecht/Highlander
Alchemist/Princess

will I constantly die?

>>169179746
those three are fairly tanky so maybe not as much as you normally would but you'll definitely see frequent oneshots of characters

Why is EO such a comfy game?

>>169180518
Map design that is actual design instead of a random dog turd traced with jagged edges with a few dead ends sprinkled to the sides like maps in your usual RPG are.

Interesting classes with sometimes varied playstyles that all horribly suck if you don't know what you are doing.
Beating the game is something you do, not something that is pre-programmed because the characters kick so much ass by default.

Enemies that are more about working together instead of just hitting very hard.
In fact, outside of the first and sixth stratum the big-pile-of-stats enemies are on their own usually the least threatening encounter because you have so much tools to shut them down.
Only the combination of damage, support and control that enemies throw at you is really dangerous.
(In the first stratum you often don't have the tools to deal with hard-hitting enemies quite as easily and in the sixth stratum they are so numorous their tactic to just murderate you can often wear you down.)

Great music and often beautiful places that even with their repeated textures are way more interesting to look at than just another gray brick wall in a dungeon and a dark brown cave.

A resource system that is designed not to keep you in the dungeon until you get bored and stop on your own but has you go back to refresh the TP of your characters when you still want to explore. So not only do your characters take a break you also have one and can get right back to exploring rejuvinated and fresh.
Also especially in the newer titles shortcuts that allow you to progress even when only taking a rather short trip into the dungeon.
You can either spend hours or just fifteen minutes in one sitting and feel like it was worth your time either way.

These are all great reasons you can tell people about should they ask you what you like about the franchise.

But we all know we are here because cute girls in armor. And sometimes cute girls without armor. And traps that look like cute girls in armor.

>>169180114
Ok, I will try it out. Maybe I go for Guard Order before Attack Order to get a bit more sturdy.

Btw. could I use War-Revive on a character that is still alive to get the end-of-turn revival should they die?

The great thing about having no voice-acting in IV, is that you can choose any portrait you want and with the help of some healthy autism just choose their gender yourself.

2 fencers, a rabbit, and whatever else your heart desires.

Just picked up EO2:U, curious how elemental chaser and link order work. Is it elemental attack -> chase -> link order? Or elemental attack -> link order -> chase?

Can you still craft an element onto a weapon? There's not too much variety for elemental damage dealing classes up in here.

Also do status effects/binds suck, or are they a viable strat this time around?

>>169201502
It should be either
elemental attack -> Chaser -> Link Order (from elemental attack) -> Chaser
or
elemental attack -> Link Order -> Chaser (from elemental attack) -> Chaser (from Link Order)

Damagewise those two are identical. Link Order will only work once per turn, Chasers have a chance to procc more often (chance goes up as you increase the rank of the skill)

You can not forge an elemental on weapons. If you want elemental normal attacks a Troubadour or consumable items can help you.
But as with forged elementals they are only influence normal attacks. If you use a skill with cut damage it will still deal only cut damage even with an elemental infused weapon.

Not much variety for elemental damage? Alchemist, Gunner and Fafnir (Story exclusive class - can be used in Classic only via New Game+ from a Story save) have easy and useful access to all three of them.
Landknecht, Souvereign and Highlander (DLC class as it was introduced in EOU) can copy that element.
And Ronin also has all elements (even all physical ones) although it's not that good of an idea to try and use them all since you would spread your skill points thin.

Also if you are thinking about fighting enemies that are resistant to physical elements an honorable mention goes out to Ailment Cut, a really strong War Magus skill that ignores cut resistance.

Binds/ailments are strong. They are only influenced by LUC in this game (as opposed to being influenced by TEC and LUC in earlier titles) and there are some passives that increase ailment chance even further.
Accumulated resistances are still a thing but they only persist for ten rounds so in long boss battles you can inflict the same bind/ailment multiple times.

>>169203236
How many bosses are completely immune to various ailments and binds?

Debating between a chase/link order focused team and a bind/ailment focused team.

>>169203441
There is a single boss that is immune against all but one of them and some bosses have a few immunities but for the most part you will have a choice as to what you want to inflict.

Personally I would take the bind/ailment route.
The War Magus' Ailment Cut needs an ailment on the enemy but deals really good damage.
And the Dark Hunter's Ecstasy deals more damage the more binds an enemy has. With two binds the damage is already amazing but with three it becomes outright insane. (Though the final post-game boss is immune to one of the binds.)
With a single turn of set-up you can two-shot some post-game bosses on Expert using Trance and a three bind Ecstasy.

Also a bind/ailment party can take a defensive support (Beast or Protector) along without losing much whereas Chasers want as many activators as possible.

Didn't get an answer in the last thread but what causes Crossing the Sanzu to activate twice sometimes off a hit?

What should I put my 5 extra points into for my Hexer? LUC or is Poison+5 worth it later in game? EO2 btw

>>169209378
Not sure if I've seen this happen apart from an additional chase off of a chain attack.

>>169210668
It happens like once every 5 chases or something. Been trying to figure out what triggers it but can't figure it out.

>>169210659
Poison is much better. LUC barely has an effect in EO2 because everything that isn't a random encounter heavily resists ailments to a point where it pretty much does nothing.

>>169212691
Was unsure how useful LUC would be, thanks. Was only weighing the two since I have a DH with Viper and wasn't sure it was necessary to have two poison skills

OPPAI LOLLI : THE GAME

>>169215159
No.

What's the best game to play first?

>>169211878
Any chance it's that skill that allows other skills multiple activations?

>>169215961
EO4.
It is the most forgiving when it comes to party composition (as in: nearly every halfway decent party works).
Also it's the only one with an actual overworld (aside from EO3's sailing minigame) so if you come from other RPGs the transition won't be as jarring as being restricted to a single dungeon might be.
When you come from other turn-based dungeon crawlers you will probably feel right at home anyways.

It's also the easiest so you won't get your ass handed to you quite es often as if you started with EO2U or even EOU.

Lastly of all the 3DS titles it has the least amount of QoL stuff so it's smoother to go forwards from there than to go backwards from the Untolds.

EO3 would also be possible buts it's an DS game and you can feel its age...

>>169194386
that's his gimmick

>>169216368
It's either that or the one that lets normal attack hit multiple times. Looks like it has a lower activation rate than normal though.

>>169220358
How come EO5 is only half a gb big? It seems like it'd take up more space than that.

>>169218024
Atlus NA has the worst translation team, mostly because I imagine JP screws them over.
>P5's international versions get a launch date like 2 weeks before the JP version drops.
>The president of the NA branch went on-record as saying they hadn't even seen the script yet and localization had only JUST began.
I don't think anybody was surprised that it got delayed, just really fucking annoyed.

>>169221586
Did not mean to reply. Fuck.

>>169221586
The mazes in EO4 and stratums in the Untolds were safed as a whole whereas in EO1-EO3 and EO5 everthing is generated on the fly.
This is why the view distance is so small - the game literally does not know what is further away than what you can see.

Also there is neither an overworld nor (afaik) any anime movies to store.

So the half gb is enemy models, textures, animations, music, SFX, voices, portraits and UI. Also lots of numbers and letters but those are cheap to store.

And that's a still image that's just a bit of fluff.

As somebody that got it on sale, I'm glad I got it on sale.

The game is either ridiculously easy or hardcore screws you over for not bothering to have the A+ perfect team from the start. The third stratum wasn't even hard, it was just irritating as fuck to have to deal with "ambush+corrosion" every other fight, despite being overleveled as fuck.

The puzzles aren't good and can't be interrupted, the final stratum is "dodge this reaper for 2 hours and execute this SPECIFIC MOVEMENT PATTERN OVER 5 FLOORS", and the only good aspects of the game can be found on youtube.

Get it on sale, or just download the soundtrack and pretend it goes to a good game.

I don't know - trial-and-error-ing your way through a teleporter maze and doing the same (horribly slow paced) FOE puzzle over and over again was not too great.

I liked B26F and B27F of EOU more than B29F.
B28F and B30F are outright boring in their design and frustrating in execution so overall I am not too hot on Clearet Hollows.

I wish I knew how to draw. I would do a silly comic where Shiitake is sleeping in the middle of the shiitake fields, where the farmer boy is harvesting them, then he sees a big and delicious one, goes to pick it and he realizes it was her pin. Shiitake would then wake up and freak out because of her missing pin, since finding it in the middle of so many real shiitakes would be impossible. Then the boy hands it back to her, and as thanks she gives him a sweet cheek kiss and a hug.

In EOV why does Alcon keep talking to me whenever I enter the 6th stratum and return to town?

What's the bare minimum needed to beat le millenom primmy? I already have two imperfect Action Boosts and a Burning Ray and Fire Torrent.

>>169323423
I think he is in the wrong general, he probably wants disguya general because Prinny is their main character or something

>>169323132
You can beat it with that if you read its pattern and have a good enough strategy. To have a higher chance of killing it, get at least one Analysis and put it on Highlander, unless you're playing Classic, then give it to any other elemental attacker.

So if I kill a FOE in EOIV, they will never respawn?

They are censoring the necrololis in V aren't they

>>169324464
They won't change the lolis for the west.
because there won't be a western release

>>169324240
It takes them 7 days. Bosses take 14.
Some FOEs that are needed for puzzles respawn faster though.

>>169324464
I would be ok with them censoring them if they put them in badass skull armor.
But since putting effort into making female characters more badass is not making any money they will probably just close their jackets.

Binds. Lots and lots of binds.
As opposed to any other enemy Hollows don't get accumulated resistances to binds.
So as soon as a bind drops you can apply it again with the exact same chances.

EO5

Why EO is so adamant against abilities which let you regenerate TP anyway?

Was that snowy stratum as bad in EO2 as it's in EOU2? I'm starting to understand why people hate 2

>>169334351
Troubadours can restore TP. War Magus' Curse Cut can restore TP. EO4 has a million passives that restore TP. Sovereign's Force Break can restore TP. Shamans can restore TP.

Aside from there absolutely being abilities that restore TP, running out of TP is a core principal of the series.
You need to manage your resources. The Labyrinth is not something to stroll through but a dangerous place.
And getting back before you had your fill means you don't get as exhausted as in other games where after long stretches of uninterupted exploration everything starts to feel samey.

>>169334978
Labyrinth is not an issue anyway, the issue are bosses and their bullshit ass pool of HP where TP serves as an additional time limit because if you run out of TP at boss you can just load the save right away unless the boss is one hit from death. I miss 7th Dragon where you can just pick Princess and forget about TP like entirely unless you waste it in ludicrous amounts.

>>169332893
Moh

>>169335313
That's EO2U's shitty boss-design mostly.
In other titles HP totals are a lot lower and you have access to TP restoration way earlier than the fourth Stratum.

In other games it's closer to another layer of difficulty and planning as you can't simply dump all points into a skill without keeping TP costs in mind.
But EO2U TP starvation just plain sucks.

>>169368707
I hope THE Highlander returns.
Storywise it would make sense since there are two factions.
Highlander and Ricky get hired by the Senatus, Arianna and Flavio work with the Deep City to get Fafnir out of the new dungeon with a name from nordic mythology.
Chloe is off nursing Bertrand as he started aging again and at a really fast rate at that so both are not in the game.

4th Stratum boss is not some random monster just being summoned and never talked about again but Highlander and Ricky or Arianna and Flavio.

And yes, I mainly hope that's the case because I want to beat up Flavio and bully Arianna.

IMO they could just combine this and have different areas with traditional 10 floor dungeon in each. Overworld made more sense than "you go up a floor and end up in a completely different environment for no reason at all, it's magic ain't gonna explain shit". Side areas was also a good idea, just needed to be more complicated

>>169380767
EO has a pretty small team behind it. And putting several people on overworld duty will delay the next release which costs a lot of money or will cut into the quality of the dungeoneering.
The Overworld is not simply wished into existence. You need to design the map, textures, UI icons, movement animations in case of a vehicle, the vehicle itself and of course stuff to fill the overworld with.
That is a lot of work and if the only pay-off is "well it makes more sense that way" then it's really not worth it.

>>169383504
They already have the overworld and just have to improve on it? I don't even think people complained more about overworld itself and not about dungeons having 3-4 floors in general (although i fail to see how having 3 4-floor dungeos is somehow worse than having one 10 floor one, it's not like anyone beats all the tree without resting ever, not sure if it's even possible)

Any way to manipulate grimoire creation or those are completely RNG? I just got some grimoire with additional TP regen after fight and i might need more of these

>>169389569
I believe there is some food that makes it more likely that these additional effects get put on a grimoire.
Also the level of the effect gets higher in higher floors. The DLC floor will always give you the best results but it also sucks balls to fight there.

358KB, 700x663px

>>169389569
What game? Because you can get multiples grimoires (at random rates) in untold 2 and in the first one, it's always going to be the last skill used when you get a grimoire chance.

They are RNG, but it's easier to get active skills over passive or enemy skills because most of the time, you'll get the skill you just used.

>>169389569
If you're talking about the bonuses in U2, those are dependent on stratum, so stay in the area for what you want. But they're really tiny bonuses and not really worth the trouble. The only bonuses that really matter are the rare ones that you get from trading with one-time visitors after you finish developing an area in town.

Why are Runemasters so bundled up in winter clothes?

Does using magic make your blood run cold or something?

>>169396864
Nerds with weak immune systems.

>>169396864
It's to make Comfymaster more comfy, no other reason needed.

But really, all EO mage-classes have some wierd accessiore.
Alchemists have their glove, Zodiacs have freaking wings and Warlocks have pipes on their back.
Compared to that a winter hat is really not much. But it keeps Runemasters from being a generic staff-wielding girl in robes like mages in so many other franchises are.

Meh, questionable.
If you have a Herbalist and Reaper you can make it very likely that an ailment will stick by stacking debuffs.
And if you get some binds together with the ailment your damage will be really nice.

But if you have a party that is build around shutting down the enemy with ailments and binds, why do you have a Chain-Fencer in the first place?

I mean, if you only have a single person using binds/ailments you could use Chain Killer to speed up random encounters.
But there is so other stuff a Chain-Fencer should put points in first.

Casual detected. This series doesn't hand out achievements on a silver platter; you have to work toward them using all available resources, efficient strategy, and occasionally some good old-fashioned grinding.

Fortunately you're in a helpful community that won't just tell you to git gud like some others I know. What FOE are you having trouble with?

>>169416143
Preventing recoil

>>169416124
It activates when you land ailments and binds, so if you have ways of inflicting those, sure. It even works with Chain Double, so if you get lucky, you can deal a lot of damage. Don't bother with it if Chain Blast is your only way of inflicting things, since that has priority over Chain Killer.
