I'm intrigued by this. It's true you don't see many Elea in towns. You mainly see them in dungeons or in the slave auctions in Derphy. I imagine it would be hard for an Elea to assimilate into the cities of North Tyris for example after well, living like an animal. Makes me wonder what a typical day of life is for an Elea.

Second piece of artwork I've seen that depicted Itzpalt as Kiwi. Was wondering why that was the case so I did a bit of research. Found that the reason why he's depicted that way is because in the Japanese version if you put in Itzpalt as your wish it would summon a kiwi. So not only does Itzpalt grant some neat stuff but he's tasty fruit with lots of health benefits too. Ano that's a bit too much. Please nerf. I can't handle the glory of kiwi.

Think someone requested the black valkyrie in the past? Found it buried in pixiv while searching for something for my shoggoth.

>>15089767
Won't change much since I've been leveling my fireball, iceball, and thunder vortex spells. Fireball and iceball do more damage than thunder vortex but the wet status added a multiplier which made up for it. Now fireball has its own multiplier through oil and from what you're saying iceball is getting one too. Kinda puts fireball and iceball over thunder vortex in potential damage but the spells I use to damage enemies has always revolved around enemy resists.

For instance, undead creatures when I see them triggers a sense of glee because they burn so easily without adding multipliers or applying elemental scar. I love running into the zombie queen because I can expect to see a log full of six digit damage figures to her and all the zombies she spawns. Adding multipliers or stripping away resists through elemental scar would just be overkill.

If something were to be weak to thunder I'd use thunder vortex or if something was weak to ice I'd use iceball. Everything else I use magic storm.

There is one special case that comes to mind and that's the possible enemy that has superb resists in everything including magic. In that special case, I'd probably use iceball. I'd use elemental scar to rip out the enemies resist making my elemental spells actually do more damage than pure magic and then I'd apply the wet damage multiplier as that's really easy to apply over oil. It takes a bit more work to make oil and it's easy to apply wet through chucking a random potion at an enemy or to just use bubble storm to make a bunch of enemies wet.

If any of your pets are melee units then this becomes a moot point. I'm not even a melee and she would be useless if that's all she offered. And it is all she has going for her.

Definitely not the right mindset to have for this game. Everything about this game requires anywhere from a moderate amount of grinding to a lot of time invested to get something. It's rewarding though. You start off insanely weak and as you overcome the challenges in the game and grow in power there is a sense of satisfaction to be had. All of it takes time and a a bit of thought and strategy though. Elona is definitely not a game for the impatient and for people that hate repetition.

For the most part, people either embrace the grind or go back to another game where the rewards are easier and faster to achieve.

I've been playing an Elea mage and have mostly only focused on casting and a bit on firearms.

I'm around level 40 now and noticed I have less than 10 levels in all the melee related combat skills. Is this something that will screw me over in the late game, or am I good to keep relying on magic?

>> No.15117623

>>15117506
Screwed? No, but you won't have as much of an easier time as hybrids. You can rely on casting as your only damage source for a very long time though. Don't know what or where your late game is but it isn't until you start seeing level 140+ enemies that a character that draws from different damage sources really starts to shine. It's those kind of enemies that you'll start to see that have immune/high resists to spells, love to silence(and have the hex last for quite some time), and have the HP to actually make the fight drag on so they can bring their full power to bare. You may run out of MP during the fight and wish you had another good damage source to finish the fight. Or you'll wish you could just use your MP for only heals and just use your other attack skills.

Still, a pure caster type should be fine if they over level themselves for a situation or come prepared to deal with the pitfalls listed above. Just keep in mind that the fight could of been easier if you were a hybrid.

>> No.15117660

>>15117623
Oh, and can't forget enemies that love to make you go insane which leads to confused and dim. Both makes casting treacherous as a miscast will either zap you of all your MP or blow up your character killing him/her. It's a lot safer to approach these enemies with melee or range skills.

If you draw some of your damage from firearms remember this. The skill marksman is where most of your damage comes from as it's prime responsibility is raising damage multiplier.

I invited all the deities to my house and screwed them on the regular while they get drunk and vomit everywhere. Although I don't lewd Ehekatl or Lulwy too much anymore after inviting Kumi and Mani over. That wouldn't be a nice thing to do.

Scratch the godslaying part. Seems like you just need to be high enough level to astral pen them. Think you can do that without provoking them. At least, their regular form.

3 - 4 great gifts (can get cheap gifts from general vendors and use scrolls to change them), half of their level, have enough magic ink, then astral light pen.

Inner gods are doable, the amount of gifts remain the same, main problem is that unless you have equal speed to them, the 4 turns it takes to get them to soul mate is probably enough to kill you.

The Gods are all 350, so you need to be level 175 yourself. (and 35 magic ink iirc) Inner Gods are all 600, so you need to be level 300, and 60 magic ink I think?

In the regular game though it's not that great to use the Astral on them if you're looking for artifact weapons and such, since a lot of the Lost Irva artifacts are locked behind Astral Light Pen recruitment - as in the Gods that drop them don't drop them on death. That with the INI hit and the god recruitment penalty, the Gods are only a choice if you want them for fluff reasons.

The no gag reflex was an awful translation of the original Japanese. Makes me think it's a machine translation. The word gag can mean mean to retch or it could also mean make jokes. This is where the machine probably tripped up. It looks like it was fixed to convey what was really being said.

If I had to guess, part of the reason is that not many people even got that far. Of the people that did get that far, I'm sure there were some deaths. The problem is that such deaths flew underneath the radar because an avalanche of deaths from beginners, that most likely would be dying in beginner related areas, buried those deaths in the log.

I've seen a couple of people come up on my log as dying to chaos fort bosses, one of them to Lulwy, and a couple to Zeome and the second continent boss. Had to be paying attention to my log to spot them though. Also, once you get far enough in the game people have probably learned what they can and can't take on and have learned how to survive better so they don't die as often.

>> No.15128050

>>15127922
By the time you get to late game, you don't actually die very easily assuming you've actually gotten to Act 3 in any stable fashion. With around 800 speed (the limit Leold can take you to in Act 3) you actually outspeed the majority of level 100 - 130 dungeons and surviving isn't an issue. The tough part is grinding up to 800 speed, and a lot of people just get bored before that, even with the Void being a good place for speed upper pots. If you're into savescumming, there's always the free medal hermes pot graveyard run or temple run that can be done at level 1 to get you to whatever speed you can tolerate grinding to.

Pet masters can get even more ridiculous, as long as you have enough gold to keep your pets potentials up and food to boost their stats, you can get a stat average ratio of 7:1 (stats to level). If you're looking for some gauge of what this looks like - a nerfed level 164 undeadgod Ulzassil has a stat to level ratio of 1.8 to 1. The tough part is grinding out herbs and food, and even that can be savescummed safely if you're into it, since Vernis has the "free herb cave". The less pets you have, the easier keeping this ratio up gets.

Basically, no reason to die later on in act 2 - 3 unless you trying to actively stay as weak as possible to keep the game somewhat challenging. Things change once you hit the 160 - 170 threshold where Gods start spawning in dungeons. An Atlas hits harder than Ulzassil, which is kind of funny.

>> No.15128174

>>15128050
To add on to this, a list of common player killing mobs.

In the very early game. Performers and Kobolds can be very nasty since the former has ranged attacks and the latter hits like a truck depending on your race. Slimes can also be terrible since they can melt you down to nothing.

In Act 1 depending on how you build and your equip/resist set up, dragons and casters like Lichs can be terrible depending on whether they can abuse your elemental resists. Without mist of silence for the latter they can get real annoying real quick.

As you start to get into Act 2, things like Bomb Rocks and shit that show up and go boom for 99999 damage can ruin a run. Liches and dragons usually stop being much of a problem, and if you die to them it's a sign you haven't gotten good equipment resists or countermeasures like silence/weaken.

The Yith can be troublesome in the transition between Act 1/2 and late Act 2, but really they aren't that bad if you focus them down instead of letting them do whatever. Xeren Satellite Units/Fighters/Tanks however are pretty dangerous due to their speed and sonic booms.

If you last into Act 3, generally the former enemies become manageable except for things like Bomb Rocks, and if you can do level 100 dungeons, generally 100 - 140 is just a steady climb as you get more health and stats. The performaid bitchiacks can be a real menace with their MP breath though.

Then Atlas and Five Element Dragons start showing up and you're basically in for it if your stats aren't already phenomenal. The threshold where they start showing up, like 150 - 160 range I think is where you're basically looking at end game short of fighting the neutral NPC Gods.

Anyway her backstory was that she's naive but a genius. If I'll add in more than the game offers, she chugged down own of her own potions because she was poor as fuck after being conned one after another and now she's a mutant with 4 legs. Later on she'd grow more hands and carry all the best weapons she can grab while riding a lightning fast kirin. She fights because she has to pay taxes. Her fighting style is shadowstepping in a group of enemies and casting sound ball to obliterate all enemies in her vicinity, her allies would pick out the stragglers.

You can reset a map entirely by using the enter+delete method. The graveyard has 2 medals, the temple has 3 + 4 herb seeds. Basically what you'd do is run over there early on, get in, grab the medals and whatever loot you want, get out, reset the map, repeat. You can get as many medals as you want this way. When you use enter+delete and reset the map, all the medals get reset as well. Graveyard is generally easier since it's also closer to the dwarves, but the union ground/temple has nice herb seeds.

Some people consider it cheating, but hey, it's a one player game so play it however you want.

It's the same method that you'd use to farm herbs from Vernis's Slime Cave, though that one is much safer since the herbs are really early on. It does get pretty fucking boring though, and might not be the way you want to play the game. Early on, 300 speed is more than enough to outspeed most things. If you somehow grind to the magic 800 number early for some reason, you'll start outspeeding bells. (770 or so)

It's a painful and obnoxious grind in some cases.

You have two leg slots to take advantage of two pair of boots for your hooves. Aside from that you have normal body slots.

Like I said before, she's a genius. She's a natural on many fields and that's why she's a jack-of-all-trades, possibly master of everything she's in if you're autistic in playing. Her personality is aloof and sensitive to her surroundings so she's easily influenced. She went poor after making many mistakes in her life and she stumbled on North Tyris soon afterward. I don't really care much about her allies but I guess the little girl is someone she traveled with.

It's true though

Kumi literally has in-game dialogue about Ehekatl. Lulwy literally says that she hates Mani and if you ever talk to Mani's actual character, he questions why Lulwy hates him.

The backstory of the deities and the "war" is out there on forums.
Kumi and Ehekatl used to be a thing. When the first era died off, they escaped to a hidden garden, but Ehekatl eventually went insane. Mani was originally a mortal and the top follower of Lulwy. But he eventually betrayed her to become a Deity, and lost all his memories in the process.

I forget the link to all of this, but it's in the archives of past threads.

Yea it's unbelievably vital that you get all of the multipliers possible. Basically if you combo all of the multipliers together you get like 10x the amount of tickets you would get normally. Also with higher levels of summon spirits you spend less spell stock so it becomes easier to maintain.

What I did to get higher summon spirit levels was to grind sleep for 300-400% potential, and get alot of learning from divine wisdom, buster book (if you can kill gods), and an etherwind corruption that converts dex/cons into learning/will, so I could get the most exp out of each cast (so that I wouldn't get fucked by wonder scroll luck, which I still did).

I mean with vital flayer you only need 300 more spell enhancement (which is about 3 living weapon enchantments), since theres a cap at 2.5x (or +1500 spell enhancement). With enough levels in medium armor, you can get magic equip which is also excellent. You don't have to have medium weight armor all the time, just for party time quests only. You're pretty much there, the rest you just have to grind out.

>>15132875
I personally found the whole small medal grind exceedingly slow. It's definitely viable, but I figured that I'm going to grind out the 2000 life eventually, so I thought I might as well grind out speed uppers with music tickets as well. The thing about music ticket grinding is that it starts slow, but it keeps ramping up indefinitely, so if you have any long term projects like 2k life/2k mana, it's actually pretty feasible to grind out the 2k speed with music tickets as well. For me, speed upper grinding was mildly faster than grinding out medals.

If you have a herb farm curarias and stomafillas are generally easy to come by. Herb in recipes are limited more from the "rare" herbs, so if you're just farming normally you'll often end up with plenty of extra curaria/stomafilla.

Keeping up with pets' hunger demands though with herb food is probably something you'll want to leave for when you have a steady supply of herb seeds and such. If you're playing with no savescumming, generally this can get pretty tough until you're in the midgame and have the statue of kumiromi.

I stuck with small medal grinding mostly since it was more thematic character wise (I went for a more Dungeon Meshi feel). Figured that considering the only thing the team really can't take right now are high level Void enemies and other God Folks, I don't necessarily need to optimize the grinding.

That said it'd be real nice to see what kind of health values the Meshera Alpha can get at 2k life. This character and his team really hasn't been "optimal" at all.

I kind of wish there was a mechanic to "reborn" the character so I could drop everyone's levels back down to 1 while keeping their current stats just for amusement. Might just do that on a different save file with elosnack.

If you can keep up a steady supply of herbed food for your team then it's better to feed herbed food than simply curaria and stomas, but 5 might not be enough depending on how large your team is. If you're just looking to keep them fed then it should be more than enough. 5 statues will really only get you 5 herb seeds which isn't a lot at all. You might get 1 - 2 rare herbs out of that?

The herbed food make a massive difference if you can keep your pets potentials topped up, but it requires a lot of resources to work.

Currently I get an average of about 1.2k per party with the flayer equipped. Filling all the spare slots in a party quest with spirits tends to net another 300 more. Unfortunately magic equip isn't an option due to fairy fun.
I'd not considered casting Divine Wisdom before spamming spirits but I'll have to remember that for next time. I need to put more plat into performer as well just to make sure I can impress high level spirits.

>> No.15133001

Oh in that case, make sure you have alchemical rain. You basically don't bother performing for the spirits themselves (only the unique npcs), and instead you use alchemical rain with a blessed love potion to max out their attraction to you in a single turn. Ideally you want to do this some 50-70 turns before the party time ends, so that they don't go apeshit and start drinking mutation potions and whatnot. You'll notice a large increase in tickets.

I've found that trying to keep pets filled up with herb food generally isn't "smooth sailing" at least until you're done with most of Act 1/Act 2. Getting the food part is generally pretty easy, keeping a giant horde of food isn't the problem once you have 4d pocket or even just a cooler, but once you start hitting more than 6 - 7 pets having enough herbed food is a hassle. With 15 I've found you need massive amounts of dedicated farmland if RNG decides to shaft you.

Then there's the issue of keeping their potential up to superb, but that's a different deal. Thankfully they gain such a massive bonus from herbed food that it's not that big of an issue.

>> No.15133065

>>15133031
Yes. I time it by how many rests I can fit before the end. I get about 8 rests between the "10 minutes left" dialogue and the end of the quest, so I just rest 6 times, divine wisdom, magic equip, spam summon spirits until they no longer spawn, then use alchemical rain with a blessed love potion. Then I just rest one more time and usually that will end the party time quest.

Yes, specifically I grinded music tickets by summoning high level spirits, using alchemy rain to spread the effects of a love potion, and making sure I nabbed all the score multipliers. They're the named NPCs such as Shena, Stoke, Lomias, etc. Nevermind the Candle of Lulwy in the picture. That's a demigod item that is affecting relationship levels but is not necessary for farming the tickets. Hopped on a snail once I impressed everyone to end the party quicker by dropping my speed to 26.

I started farming music tickets this way when my summon spirit was just slightly below lv 300. This is assuming that by then you also have equipment that caps your magic multiplier. You won't be making 100k tickets per show like I'm doing at lv 280ish spirits but it should still be enough to get a good amount of tickets to start farming hero cheese/magic fruit. Beyond lv 280ish spirits expect your earnings to just keep getting better thus making it easier to supply hero cheese/magic fruit to yourself and pets if needed.

To get your summon spirit stock you just farm wonder scrolls, bless them, read them, and hope you get stock for it. I usually consume batches of 100 wonder scrolls scrolls I collect from every invested magic vendor and general vendor(Think that's the vendor type. They don't sell as much scrolls as magic vendors but you can still find wonder scrolls from them sometimes.) on all the continents. Get into a cycle of checking on their stock after say three days of in game Elona time as they do refresh their stocks.

Make sure you fill your home with magic vendors. I have a palace and have 8 magic vendors in it. If you're having problems filling your home with magic vendors it's possible your game has run into a bug where you can't recruit anymore due to vendors having duplicate names. To fix the bug, simply rename your vendors in your home and you should see new magic vendors show up for recruitment eventually.

Lastly, some final thoughts and related info. You do not need to get 2000 life or mana anymore. In the prior versions that was the cap but now the effective cap is 1000. Anymore life and mana beyond 1000 will not help you. I think I started feeling a difference in HP and MP at the 200 mark and by the time I got to 800 I didn't have MP problems anymore.

For a character that chooses to abstain from magic altogether I suppose another way of getting hero cheese and magic fruit is doing the little sister quest and just farming them that way.

Finally, you can get a ton of level ups from destroying batches of high level summoned spirits. I get like six levels in mere seconds at a time by just summoning spirits and meteoring them to death. That's why my level is so high aside form just killing very high level monsters in the void. Of course, the challenge revolves around keeping your stocks up for summon spirit and meteor though.

>>15132735
Think I stopped raising my dungeon at the lv 600 mark but I think you could stop at around lv 500. You get the max chance of Nefia core drops at that level and should have maxed out the amount of gold you can make in a dungeon awhile ago. For farming medals I purposely keep dungeon levels low in relation to my character Ex: lv 500 dungeon is nothing to a lv 5000 character. The chance of medal drops from dungeon boss doesn't seem to care about dungeon level so it's best to just go to low level dungeons where you can clear them in seconds.

Only thing to keep an eye out are for big daddies and bells as they too drop medals. Aside from that, I just zoom to stairwells and beeline to the boss. If I want challenge, AP, and skill/spell level ups I stick to the void.

The Nefia cores might be helpful in building a minor attribute stick. Ex: sword with 100 strength etc. Anything to help you eventually get the real deal if you choose to battle a god and get their weapon. Aside from that, yeah I don't really see myself farming Nefia Cores. Jewel tear of god and the crafted materials used for artifact fusion on the other hand...

>>15133077
Not sure there is a best. So far I've found that all of the combat styles, melee, range, and magic have their shortcomings and certain enemies are easier to fight with one style compared to another.

Due to this, I find that I'm not only a gunner but a caster and magic device/rod user too. I'd like to add a melee skill to my skill set too but I don't have nearly enough bonus skill points and time to farm platinum points to maintain a melee skill. Alas, I leave melee up to my pets and my traveling skill to level up my melee skills for me.

Your guess is good as mine about whether it's mind or nerve. I hope there is a resist for it but then again as I said, might just be a rumor. Insanity is horrible in the void. Used to be that I would just kill those Yith creatures before I ever got afflicted but I can't really do that in the void with everything having so much HP. It's not too uncommon for me and my pets to come back from the void with deadpan eyes trying to drink away our nightmares at the bar.

Question for Anna if she's around. Love the gambit like tactic system that Custom has in place, but I'm wondering if I have to set in default attack AIs like a "failsafe" target distance = 1 melee attack at the very bottom, or if the custom AI will have a default (if no command is chosen, follow this AI) kind of logic to it.

Right now the way I have it set up I have a MP failsafe command at the very top so nobody kills themselves casting, but I don't know if I need to add in more failsafes so they don't just idle around when no other condition is met.

Actually, I kind of like that idea. I mean of there being an option to assign pets a default AI package in one of the tactics slots, and if you want to override them you can just set something higher priority, or move the default AI package to a lower slot.

That would save everyone of having to assign a bunch of mundane stuff to every pet AI, like "run when badly hurt," "don't overcast at -999% mana," etc.

>> No.15136538

I was just asking because I had set up the "safety net" standard for logic (at least, I thought I had) with Self MP <10% (Harvest Mana or Move Away) at the very top to prevent MP suicide and Player Distance >=1 Move Forward at the very bottom for "Just move if you can't do anything else guy".

But it seems that my challenged teammates still have troubles understanding my instructions at odd intervals, so I must be doing something wrong somewhere along the line.

If I understood Anna's blog entry on it the logic would basically go from top down - and check for whether each condition is true or false, if true, attempt to follow through with action, if not possible, move to next until the entire gambit chain is exhausted. Theoretically then with my "Yo guys just move" command they should never have the "HALP I DUNNO WUT DO" message...but evidently that's not the case so I must be doing something wrong, I just dunno what it is.

Oddly enough I tried putting in Target Distance >= 1 Attack (Ranged) and I still get the same "HALP PLS" which leads me to think that they might not even be reaching the end of the gambit chain at all. If somebody with more know how on this can enlighten, much appreciated.

I mean, I know my Meshera Alpha is just a Blobby Flesh Angel with a mad desire to stick her tentacles into monsters, but she can't be that retarded right?

As far as Custom AI is concerned, pet ranged actions (be it ranged attacks or magic/ability) are currently capped at 5 squares from their position, so if your pet's target is at 6 or more squares away, either it will attempt to execute the next action slot or cry HALP PLS if there's none.
