Guys, I have an idea idea - let's remove the map screen and mapping in general to have prettier pictures of enemies and walls.
Surely that's what makes the games great, right?

>>172554005
You actually made me laugh.

Wew, Cernunnos was a pushover compared to Fenrir.
Maybe it was because this time I actually had money to buy consumables and the classes are actually doing their thing.

>>172554221
Pretty much.

>>172554221
>prettier pictures of enemies and walls
No, just higher resolution. Same budget, same low-quality shit in a higher resolution.
Although it would get rid of the popping problems in EO5.

But yeah, sounds fine. Sacrifice a major gameplay element so we can have the see textures on larger screens.

Something doesn't match.

>>172560743
They are not getting rid of expert, they are axing picnic.
Don't you think there would be a gigantic shitstorm everywhere if the highest difficulty in EOV was on par with the Untold's Standard?

They go back to EOIV difficulties but rename them.
In EOIV they were called Casual and Normal.
In EOV they are called Normal and Advanced so casuals don't feel so bad.

From what people have said it is a bit easier than the Untolds but not on Standard level. And it's harder than EOIV so that's a plus.

>>172560587
Scruffy medic is the only good IV medic.

>>172561051
So just the right difficulty since 4 is mostly going into easy territory and expert can easily drop into bullshit?

Why is it that in Untold 1 they made the dragons difficulty linear? Like Storm Emperor -> Frost King -> Great Dragon. I thought they were all suppose to be relatively equal and their difficulty only varies by their boss patterns instead, but it's clear you're suppose to fight them in that order this time around.

>>172561560
Probably to stagger the bosses.
It seems they tried to spread the optional bosses throughout the game (Golem and Alraune quests being hillariously early) and having all three dragons clumbed together would go against that.
Or maybe they thought it would not be so bad to fight the same boss with minor alterations three times if the fights are further apart. Unfortunately for everyone the dragons still suck.

>>172561560
same in U2, I think Dragon's core has about half the HP as the Emperor

>>172561051
>Don't you think there would be a gigantic shitstorm everywhere if the highest difficulty in EOV was on par with the Untold's Standard?
There WAS such a shitstorm.
Of course it is harder than that, but advanced is still closer to standard than expert. Untolds can be way harder than EO5 and that's not okay.

The people saying it's picnic that got axed are just noticing that basic is closer to standard than EO2U picnic but they're ignoring just how big of a gap there was between picnic and standard.

>>172562625
So we need Normal, Advanced and Expert difficulty.

>>172562021
I can understand staggering them.
What burned me out of EO2U is how boss-filled the postgame was. You have to fight Overlord, Yggdrasil Core, Salamander, Wyvern, Juggernaut, Storm Emperor, Golem, Frost King, Hekatonkeyres, Great Dragon and Ur-Child in such rapid succession that I got sick of the game.

How do we fix EO's post-game? I feel the post-game needs to be a bit more than a glorified boss rush.

>>172563358
Have two new strata instead of just one.
Have side quests that fill in blanks more akin to the mimic one instead of making everything a boss.

>>172563657
>Have two new strata instead of just one.
This would definitely work considering by the very end you would be in your level 90s at that point instead of 70 or 80.

What if i want another subclass? I must rest/retire the entire character?

>>172563358
I really enjoyed the Hall of Darkness in EO4.
One floor that is one gigantic puzzle was pretty dope.
Especially since I did not have a great team to deal with the random encounters so getting through all of it was one of the most rewarding feelings I ever had in EO.
And while the big dark room in B2F was a bit much the smaller ones were also nice.

On the boss side of things I think theywent the right way with the quests leading up to the dragons (the dragons themselves were shit, unfortunately).
Storm Emperor was relevant even in the story and Great Dragon was heavily bound to one of the town NPCs so these bosses did not feel like they were there just because.
Well, Blizzard King came out of nowhere but he can get Wyvern's connection to Esbat and the rest can get axed.
Maybe keep Salamander and give him Golem's/Juggernaut's roll of being necessary to unlock the final stratum.

So at most one boss per floor, all floors either real labyrinths or puzzles that require some back-and-forth and if possible have some connections to stuff happening before the end of the 5th Stratum.

nagaki shinwa no hate

>>172564650
Resting will reset your subclass, give you all your skill points back (minus two for the levels it costs-but you get them back from leveling up) and make your character naked.

>>172564705
For a moment I thought you got Blizzard King and Great Dragon mixed up as if you hadn't switched from EO4 to EO2U.

And really, what were they thinking when they forced us to go through TWO extra bosses to unlock the extra stratum? And to make it worse, one of them is an unnecesary repeat.

>>172564705
>>172565183
Shit, you are right, I messed up.
As you have noticed the second paragraph is about EO2U...

>>172562625
Nothing will ever be like EOU standard because that also dumbs down the enemy AI and they don't use skills as often. And Expert mode isn't really that much harder, they just made it so that every random encounter is actually a threat since there's always enemy combos that are specifically there to fuck you over

I like Etrian Odyssey.

Well technically there's only 5 people that can adventure in the labyrinth at a time so that means that at least one of them is capable of drawing the map. The real question is who's the suspect?

I must be scrub though as I already died twice.... Maybe I'm not cut out for this...?

>>172574475

>>172574475
EO4 it's your first EO game?
Remember that TP in this game is actually a luxury. You are not supposed to spam skills in every battle.

A balanced party is also good when you start the game, tank, healer, damage, mage and so on

>>172575040
Yep. Someone in the last thread said I should start with it, then get untold

Um.. my current team is a Healer, Landsknecht, Fortress, Runemaster and a Nightseeker.. Is that a good team?

>>172575040
>You are not supposed to spam skills in every battle.
After the first few hours, hell yeah you are, you just need to be smart about it and discover the best and most efficient ways to dispatch each enemy and the formations they appear in

>>172575436
I had pretty much the same team, but I had Dancer instead of NS. Could've done better with a NS, though, Dancer, Medic and Fortress was a bit too much healing

>>172575667
I was really tempted to use the dancer... I have all the other classes on standby just incase

(I'm not gonna lie, the dancer guys are really cute)

>>172576115
homo aside, dancers can stunlock bosses easily enough if you sub nightseeker and dual weild. forge for even more stuns

You might get a grimoire chance which in turns give you a chance for a grimoire, and if you do get one you have no way of knowing what kind of grimoire it is exactly and they take up inventory space so you have to bring it back to your mansion, have them evaluated and THEN you can equip them and shit. There's no real logic determining what kind of grimoire you get other than your character's class and the enemies you fight. You might get a worthless one with little slots and shit skills or you might get a just okay one. It takes a lot of fucking farming to get good grimoires and it's really not worth it because you're just better off scanning QR codes at that point. Their implementation in the game is super awkward and I never really found much use for them except end-game where you can get the 7-King Grimoires which are OP as fuck. Even then of course those are annoying and tedious to farm.

>>172598451
I'm actually going to explain the grimoire system in 1.

First grimoire is base grimoire. The first slot is the amount of grimoires you can have, up to seven slots.

The second are additional grimoires you can combine with your first grimoire. Up to seven and the rest of the grimoires will disappear. So you can combine from first and second grimoires.

The last grimoire is related to equipment. It will allow your character to use either a weapon or a shield.

Is Sovereign tanky enough to sit on the front lines? Also how strong are their healing capabilities? My guild right now only consists of a Beast and War Magus and I know I'm going to have to get a Hexer or Dark Hunter for Vampire purposes, so that really only leaves 2 spots for some type of untyped/elemental damage. This feels like I'm in chemistry class again, trying to balance a chemical equation

>>172599221

Also, check this video. It will help to save a lot of time to get grimoires with 7 slots.

It's his luck spear, that's why he won't sell it. Also, I doubt he had to fight absurdly huge monsters every day back in the village, so he didn't need a Wyvern Spear or something similar.

The Gunner is gonna be the one to handle elemental damage and later on the Sovereign will too with Link Order II, but right now I'm gonna get her healing skills up so I have some survivability.

The War Magus it's gonna be focusing on getting Ailing Slash + Vampire before anything else and I was torn between Hexer or Dark Hunter because I've never used either class before. Hexer seems to focus more on DoT and area effects whereas Dark Hunter looks to shut down single targets but moves faster than Hexer and has more burst damage to enemies with ailments.

whip DH. use viper to proc ailing slash + vampire. then DH can go ham with ecstasy. hexer's job is more or less ailment lockdown. fear / panic / bind will render an opponent more or less harmless but they can't do much else; it's a 1-trick pony. DH can inflict ailments but not as well. its main purpose is trance + one of them above two moves. it has the easiest damage potential.

Sentinel Guard is amazing. I copies EVERYTHING to your party.
Resistances from accessoires, buffs, even effecty like a Guard that someone else puts on you or Bull Charge.

If you know a big area attack is incoming you can throw it out and everyone will take a tiny amount of damage without needing to give up their offensive equipment or effects.

>>172575436
>Nightseeker
In EO3, EO4 and the Untolds VIT is far more important than armor (beyond your body armor) to survive physical damage.

Nightseekers have a pitiful amount of VIT.
So in the beginning I keep them in the backline and have them Sand Throw at every dangerous enemy and only put them in the front with the switch sommand when enough enemies are blinded so they can deal damage.

Once your Fortresses tanking goes online you will no longer need that as at that point they should take all damage for the team but before that fiddling around might be a good idea so your Nightseeker doesn't explode to every physical attack.

>>172613175

>>172615250

See? I told you I was a scrub, because I have her in the front actually... (I dunno why?? I mean because I use taunt/auto taunt she's usually fine and can take at least one hit atm depending on the enemy) but yeah, I should boot her to the back

Matter of fact, here's my current layout:

>>172610540
Why there aren't any more EO figures is a total mystery to me.

>>172618547
If you are looking for some tips:
The non-damaging runes of Runemaster are extremely strong in that they manipulate resistances directly.
There is one passive later on that lets you deal even more damage if you hit a weakness. And with the non-damaging runes you can create your own weaknesses.
At rank 6 they modify the resistance by 35%. So someone that takes say 100% damage from ice will take 135% instead with Ice Rune on them. So you deal 35% more damage (plus the 40% of the weakness passive).
But the true strength is against enemies that are slightly resistant against an element. Before they would take 75% damage, with the Rune on them they take 110%. So 46% increased damage (plus passive damage).

This means Runemaster can usually get away with focusing on two elements instead of spreading their skill points on all three.
There are very few enemies that is resistant to two elements but neutral or weak to the last. While there are some that are only weak to one element they usually are neutral to at least one of the others.

You can definitely pick ice since your Nightseeker has an ice skill so they can also make use of Ice Rune.
And then decide between fire and volt based on which kind of area you would prefer to effect (I usually pick volt but fire isn't bad).
When comparing Fireball Rune and Lightning Rune Lightning Rune deals more damage against potentially more enemies but it has melee targeting. So if your Runemaster is in the back they can only target the front row of the enemies with Lightning Rune while Fireball Rune can target anyone. (Lightning Rune has ranged damage though so it doesn't deal reduced damage from the back.)

>>172619895
Thank you kind soul ( ;∀;)

I normally use my damaging runes first to see if I need to even use my debuffs because my mp runs pretty fast and I don't have too much money so I gotta use my mp sparingly...

I don't have ice runes at the moment... It'll be the next thing I get though

>>172620387
For most normal enemies you will not need the debuff runes. Just blow them up as fast and as efficiently as you can.
(Blinding them is still a good idea for your Nightseeker if there are some harder hitting ones in the mix.)

But battles against FOEs (the walking monsters on the labyrinth map - I don't know if that term got specified in EOIV) and bosses can get challenging so getting the most out of your skills is important starting mid-game.

Falcon Slash can only hit every enemy once so it's useless for bossfights (unless you want to hit summons with a weak melee attack).

Go Hurricane and pick up Double Attack and Fencer for the off-turns.
With both of them a normal attack deals more damage to one enemy than Falcon Slash.

>>172638245
I think she usually is already tied down.
And ringing her bell will probably kill you instantly.

>>172639317
hexers don't have instakill skills though
worth it anyway with no eov localisation ever

>>172639540
EO2 Hexer Force skill had as flavor text that they are ringing their bell and it inflicted everything including instant death.
EOU Hexers have a petrification skill which is basically the same thing.

But yeah, it's worth a shot. We can be as dead as EO and maybe find the games in the afterlife.

Um.. Another question: is there any reason to save the gold drop items or should I just sell them all to Wynne?

>>172642687
>gold drop items
what

>>172642687
Some of them are required for quests.
But you should already know how to get them (you listen to people in the bar, right?) and most of them are 100% drop when you meet the condition for the drop, like kill it with thunder, for example.


>>172643048
conditional, anon.

>>172642687
There sometimes are quests that require you to get certain materials but they usually appear once you are first able to get said material.
So as long as you always check with the bar before selling your stuff you should be relatively safe.

There are a few exceptions to this rule of thumb but most of them are in EOU.
In other games (and to tell the truth even in EOU) I would just sell everything that I don't currently have a quest for and if I find one of the very rare exceptions get it later again. You safe a ton of time and bag/storage space that way.

Btw. gold drops are not that often just "rare". They are conditional drops.
For example the frogs in the 1st maze need to be killed by bash damage (through a mace from a Fortress for example) to get their fluids.
In some games fulfilling the condition only gives you a (usually rather high) chance to get the conditional drop but EO4 has really high drop rates all around.
I think most if not all its conditionals have 100% as long as the condition is met.

>>172643553
>>172643527
Okie dokie! I'll try to remember to talk to 'em! (I have been checking in every now and again but I haven't been seeing any speech bubbles)

>>172643553
>I think most if not all its conditionals have 100% as long as the condition is met.
Except for Amrita III and Amrita IV, they are 100% random drop.

What are the chances that EOV gets announced for localization tomorrow?

>>172645990
none
april 4th on the other hand...

>>172645978
how does she use the bathroom?

>>172645073
Town NPCs usually update their text after certain important events (like finishing a Mission from the Count) or if you reach a new floor.
EOIV is a bit of an exception. Sometimes they change their text if you enter a new land and sometimes floors have events in them that need to be activated for an update (especially in the 3rd maze).

>>172645270
I just checked and you are correct. Eerie Scales are a rare drop without any condition but they are still golden.
I was not sure if one of those was in EOIV.

However I am pretty sure there is no Amrita IV in EOIV - am I wrong? I never had any of those...

>>172657989

>>172658323
The kangaroos are stronger than the FOEs found in the maze and caves of the first land..

Well, Full Retreat should work since you have a Fortress that will likely survive anything the red bear throws at you.
But it means you need to save three Burst gauges and can't use them to deal damage.
If you just safe at the pole on the first floor dying won't cost you much progress since Full Retreat would bring you to the stairs anyways.

Ok... one last question (hopefully) and then I'll leave you people alone

How do catch the little flying turnip looking monster? Because it keeps running from me.. (The guy at the bar mentioned it's name but I don't remember it.. It started with a "K" I think? Kopahs..?)

>>172661732
Watch their pattern movement.
It's always the same.

You'll be able to catch all of them later as you get a boost in movement.

And protip, before going to explore, check your world map as you can spot one of them before going to explore, sometimes.

>>172661581
And yes, emojis are cancer.

Are there any fun videos of Etrian Odyssey 3's Sea Quest co-op? Also imagine if they add new dungeons for the sea quests in Untold 3 and you can explore with 4 of your friends. That shit would kick ass. Oh and add wi-fi as well.

>>172661894
Yeah I was asking because there's one on the map now. It's 3 spaces away from me.. Do you think I could still catch it without the boost?

>>172661732
Cut them off by not starting at town but at a cave or the maze.
If you save before you leave town you can just reload and try again - they will move the same way they did before loading.

>>172662261
Probably. Trial and error is your best friend.
Just reload if you fail.

>>172662261
If you already are on the map there is nothing you can do but hope it flies in your direction. They don't actively avoid you.

Also they only activate once you get to their overworld map. You can freely move in labyrinths (to get from the pole to your ship) or other lands.
I believe they despawn at midnight if you don't cause them to flee earlier than that.

>>172662535
Um.. I tried the Old Mine because that's the closest but it just ended up putting me back a space. Unless I'm wrong, I'd need to be in front of it so can cut it off (it moves up one, then turns left to run)
>>172662810
I saved at 7pm so I should be fine..?

>>172663685
They usually run to the edge of the map in a fixed pattern to escape.
If you have saved just go to the overworld and fly around a bit while memorizing its path.
Then you can choose where to start best so you can cut it of.

Not all paths are possible to intercept without the speed boost.
