Defeated Anastasia on the first try, this time without following the strategy on the wiki. Self satisfaction +1. She wasn't really too hard, although I kind of sub-estimated Muscle Revolution (hahahahaha 1.9k on ALICE!?), forgot to spam Reimu's barriers, and completely forgot about tailed things using Constrict, so Alice spent a few turns paralyzed. However, Patchouli once again saved the day by doublecasting stuff, 2.5k damage a time. Hooray.
Looks like stage 20 is going to be a bit hard, though, so I'll leave it for later. Also, safety age.

Also, why does Sanae's healing tree says "HP on revival +100%" at 25 points when it only lets dead characters come back at around 50% HP?

>>	Anonymous Sat Nov 5 03:25:44 2011 No.8075861 >>8075851 Maybe because it's not the percent of the HP but the baseline revival amount?

Just lost to the hatreds yet again. At this point I just have a personal vendetta against all bosses with Vortex. I honestly can't bring myself to switch in Reimu because that's what the boss wants. It wants the respect of switching in characters. The only boss I've ever done that for was Tenshi.

If I switch in Reimu, I'd be admitting defeat. I wouldn't be able to go on playing if I didn't do this. You have to actually see how clean my runs are, until the most random shit happens and I wipe.

I have to leave for now, but this bitch is going down when I get back.

Well, do you like Romancing Saga style RPG? If you do, then yes, you will enjoy this game.
The drop rates for this game sucks though, so I advise you to go to the wiki and look at the codes and get yourself a Gamer Fan to increase the drop rates when farming.

>>8076801
Is Vortex killing you because it is dispelling the debuff on him, or dispelling the buffs on you?
If it is the latter, then you can avoid it by having RES buff, but if it is the former, the only thing I can suggest is try messing up his IND stat.

Both. RES up isn't enough to resist Vortex, and my Sanae has maxed support trees. I would mess up his IND, but my Byakuren is already casting way too much shit. It wouldn't insure it won't debuff me (or cleanse him, which is worse case). I've tried that on Lithos and it didn't do a damn thing for me.

RES up with Byakuren is enough to stop dispel, but it's improbable to put them on all my characters, she's really doing way too much already.

I've taken him down a couple of times already, I just need to avoid Vortex. The only problem is Dark Hands on my supports for 700 damage randomly, and screwing up the timing for killing the essences.

Just beat Cirno and Momiji and went to go craft some shit. Are Satori's or Youmu's unique weapons from Youkai rocks worth getting? I previously heard the unique armors are better than weapons, but I'm really lacking in steel and it's likely that this tier of item will be outclassed by the time I get enough to get armors for people, so I'm not worried about wasting the rocks.

Anonymous Sat Nov 5 16:35:56 2011 No.8077956

>>8077934
The tier 2 armors (such as Open-Armpit Shrine Maiden Clothes and so on) are the best and cheapest unique armors you can make, so try making them for at least a few people if you're not low on unique crafting materials.
As for weapons, I find The Green Eye to be Satori's best weapon simply because of the +25% poison damage, and for Youmu you should be careful about not spending too much Rusty Blades if you want to get her Foreign God-slaying katana. I don't remember what you can make with Youkai Mt. Rocks for her, but I used a Kashasetsu for a large part of the game and it didn't disappoint me.

Take a look at the Wiki to plan which equipment you want to craft, it helps a lot even though it doesn't list all materials.

I assume you have Sanae's Wind of Miracles, the one that buffs enchantments and Variety effects.
That buff further improves the buffs you have on the characters, so it will make her RES buff strong. I don't think it matters if you cast it before or after the other buffs.

Too many buffs. My team is so buff based that I have to pay a lot of attention towards knocking off buffs. Specially Youmu's stance. I only use Miracles on randoms or mini bosses.

I don't think it's worth the buff slot/turn. I really like it as a spell though, if I need it again I may try that.

>>8079963
Most tier forge materials only drop in one or two stages. For example, the peaches are only in the Netherworld. Drop rates tend to be around 4-10% per enemy that drops it, though some enemies have much lower chances.

Character specific materials, on the other hand, simply are not meant to be gotten as drops except through very high luck. You're meant to make do with what you're given; according to the manual character weapons are meant to be flat out the best option but restrained by limited character materials. You have to make choices on what to make and not make, and that's why you'd constantly switch back to regular weapons for many characters once current weapons become outdated. Drop rate is 0.1% this early in the game.

You get them much easier in the expansion.

Excuse me game, is it asking too much to let me get out of here as soon as possible? Maybe there's some hidden counter than reduces the rate of fleeing if you do it too much. Either that or holy shit my luck is awful.

Anyway, finished picking the chests and what not from stage 21, I'll take a break, grind a bit, hopefully find the missing treasure (403 out of 414? Are you sure, Japanese wiki?), then wipe that dungeon the legit way because FUCK YOU EVERYTHING. I hate those monsters so much. Then I'll wipe them again in the post-game because I am angry. Also, are つづらがえる (chest frogs, bestiary in English doesn't seem to have them for whatever reason) really rare? I went in fully geared to try beating as many of them as I could, but I couldn't find a single one.
Ah yeah, and holy shit that music. I love how they like it so much it doesn't change for the battles.

The funniest thing is that yesterday's 13 hours of pain took half of my party to level 60, all the way from 51 or so, which means I don't have to grind as many levels as I would need to.

I lied and went for Lithos anyway. I love how the wiki has detailed strategies for both of her sisters, but for Lithos it's basically four lines saying "go beat her, she's weak to taking damage and can petrify you, also she dies easily" even though she was the hardest to take down because of Vortex. At least Little Legion completely trivializes it, hahaha.

Also, I'm curious about how one could one-shot her with Fujiyama Volcano - I was doing 18k per shot, but then again I wasn't completely geared up for damage because I wanted to get some RES to stop Mokou from being a spriteless statue.

Isn't it recommended to only snape Youmu ('s party) in when you get to the third phase? I at least think that having a party to maximize her damage and a party to wreck reptiles up would be a good idea, but I've just gotten to that part of the game and haven't even begun my final grinding.

First phase is a joke if you have blunt resistance and can stop the AoE Petrify and Charm.
You should use a magic oriented team and have Alice in Poison Doll Formation with either the Axemaster's Proof or Full-Body Cushion.
Lithos has too much evasion and magic defense, so just take your turns dealing damage to the other two sisters.

Second phase, if you have earth and mystic resistance, you are fine. Maybe use Hinotori Skydance and have someone with those resistance in the center.
You can use this phase and set up your buffs, so you can 1 or 2 shot the final boss with a full dark field. Obviously do not put on Darksword until you are ready to kill the second phase.

I cleared the pre-expansion with a party full of mid 50s. Crafted like 10 items during the whole run. The only notably good equipment was the Kusanagi and a mystic accessory.

Doing extra grinding when you don't need to is a defeat.

You COULD do decent damage with her if you get the last word active and buff her up, but usually her main role is to reflect breaths, set up evasion/accuracy boosting field, spam evasion or accuracy boost if useful, and use Illusionary Dominance against yukkuri or if striking first really benefits you somehow, such as if opponents enter counterattack stance.

Also having her in the party with vigilance prevents party-wiping surprise attacks, and you seem to almost always be able to run away whenever you feel like.

Remember to get Byakuren to endow her weapon with Dark element, and from that I believe the best strategy is spamming the bomb that deals 3-6 hits, from the single-target stance.

Oh, Jesus.

It seems... frustrating, at least, but if I'm not as retarded I think I am that leaves me with a 0.75% drop rate, which is still the best drop rate for that item in the game. Oh wow. I guess I could go for the final boss and end this all, but... that Aegis Shield looks so erotic... I think I'll try killing a few more Hydras, the only hard part of that is finding them after all.

IND, boosting her IND will boost her poison damage (and poison type).

I didn't have that many problems after making three specialized parties - I think it was Nitori/Sanae/Youmu/Satori for the left, Byakuren/Patchouli/Reimu/Alice for the right, and the rest for the center. Pretty much everyone steamrolled their parts, and the only real trouble I had was when the magic party got hit by Pan's FUCKING GREAT CONFUSION. They wiki told me there would only be petrification on that side, and oh boy that was a huge lie. Also, what made me almost cry was finding a lot of loot, but being unable to go back because everyone was so far away from the door and the game was lagging horribly by the time I was over with it and jesus christ my computer was almost crying I could feel how sad it was

I already cheated to get 100+ of every crafting material (but the character specific ones, I want to at least give their quests a try), so I don't see why not try that as well! Thanks for the tip. I assume I should do that for every time I start the game back up, if I don't get everything in one go?

By the way, Jesus Christ that final boss. First I was having a lot of trouble with the first fucking form, then Mokou never got her LW and had to just whack at the sisters while Sakuya got hers and still couldn't kill the second form, and then even with Alice tanking and shielding with Autobarrier everyone got wiped in the final form thanks to doublecasted AoE spells hitting for 250+ damage.

I didn't even think about equipping mirror shield for the fight, but that's great, the game is good at being random like that.

Yeah and that's the move I was talking about, partywide 60k damage attack. The first one killed my contingency Alice with little legion active and the second wiped the rest of my party. The next time around I let Reimu blast her away with a 20k damage fantasy flawlessness when she got low to avoid that shit.

Anyways... regarding the Satori skill tree cheat thing.

Is it really supposed to be 20 points in the tree? Or should it be 16/25? Those are the only two points after 10 in which her learn rate gets increased.

Because I'm not having any luck searching for 20 -> 175 in either Cheat Engine or TSearch.

It's real fucking hard to try to reply to you when stupid faggots are DDoSing 4chan for THE EPIC LULZ XDDDD, but, even though your method worked... changing 175's value to 9900 does not seem to affect the learning rate at all.

Not sure, supposedly some are scattered through the dungeons, but I'm not sure I really see them all in them.

However, there's a bonus post-postgame "Endurance Dungeon" so that might include all the expansion enemies scattered throughout, though I have no clue since I've never tried it.

How many people here have beaten the dungeon without cheating/mass savescumming? What were those two ultimate rewards?

Oh, cool. Then again, I might actually end up at least seeing all of them because I figured out that after getting a few party members, just exploring the areas completely is much better. All of the new monsters I've seen so far hit a bit hard, but are weak defensively, so even when I'm holding back on the Pegasus spam from Lithos they die without giving me any trouble.

And speaking of the post-game, I'm enjoying it so far, the monsters aren't annoying, the bosses I've faced are ridiculously easy so my party just got full again (Cirno, Nitori, Mokou, Aya), the new characters are fun (even though Cirno's max IND freeze hardly ever works) and the new items I can craft seem nice. The only annoying thing so far seems to be how scarce Ostracon is, but apparently three enemies in Muenzuka 2 drop it at 4%, so that might not really be an issue.

Now that I got Aya back I guess I'll just farm Trapezohedron for a while, I got most of the upgraded Kourindou items but I'm feeling like getting them all.

Probably pretty weak compared to Byakuren's. They"re just a secondary effect to her attacks, after all. They already do over 400% damage to anything that has any sort of debuff or status ailment at all, or anything she already has slayer to.

They're best working together, with Byakuren loaded with IND to get a status or debuff to work, and Reisen to unload with her super-slayer.

Of course, for random encounters you could just give Reisen Kusanagi to have her superslayer against 10 of the 16 enemy classes even without status/debuff. She naturally covers 7 with her skill trees alone.

Whoa, Reisen's growth trees looks about as sexy as her.
So, I know that none (that I know of) of the growth trees in the game stack, but seeing how Reisen has this one that gives Slayer effect against different types of enemies - does this one, at least, stack? I mean, if I get 25 points in it, is she going to have Slayer on nearly half of the enemies in this game?
Also, how good are her suppositories? I haven't bothered with the unique weapons for the expansion characters so far because I was actually too lazy to farm Trapezohedron.

>>8117179
Yes, Reisen is the master of slayer. She acquires all slayers she learns. Combined with her other tree that doubles her slayer damage, she can be one wrecking machine even without relying on debuffs.

As for suppositories, I haven't used them but her ultimate weapon comes with high resistance to all permanent effects. I usually just give Reisen the Kusanagi because while two slayer effects are wasted, it still gives her double-slayer to 10 of the game's 16 enemy categories.

Speaking of her ultimate weapon, who else thought its name was awfully clever and fitting?

I'm pretty sure her Special Slayer passive only affects Permanent/Variety Slayer skills.

Suppositories are good if your opponent perfect dodges a lot. Other than that, you're better off with a Spear for no cooldown Pick Variety/Permanent debuffs, or the Kusanagi for getting boatloads of Slayers, or pretty much anything she can equip that provides you a slayer that you can't get through Kusanagi and her passives.

This quick test made it seem like it didn't work... only 4k on a crit isn't something that looks Reisen-like.

Anyway, I read the wiki about how Remi and Flan are extremely hard, and they suggested using the Aya making everyone go first + Private Square combo, which I've never cared about. So I gave Sakuya abuff and set her square up. And then there she was, hitting Remi for 6k per hit, with a lot of doublecasts thanks to her armor, and when she left her square Remilia only needed a tap on the forehead to die. Jesus. Flan suffered a similar fate - hell, I didn't even need Nitori to spam Rage Eight on her. Hahahahaha.
Why did I never care about getting a buffed Sakuya in a square, /jp/? It's so hilariously powerful, even though her MP drains horribly fast.

The only problem is that now I have no idea of who I want to bring on the rest of the character-recruiting quests, everyone's so beautifully broken I simply can't choose only five characters anymore.

And wow, that fight was kind of tough, mostly because of Alice's 999 PDEF and her Kamikaze Dolls spam, which meant I couldn't just Private Cheese Marisa away and be done with it. I still managed to get around it after spamming Sakuya's World a few times, more Private Square spam, buffs, and all that. Also, once again nobody told me Alice can be debuffed so easily!

Stupid question, but how exactly should I extract the 5 parts on the mediafire link? The game seems to run if I just extract part 1, but I don't know how to set up a game with a multi-rar download. Personal weakness I have coped with up until this time. Now I must learn.

You are probably extracting all 5 parts and you are not realizing it.

If you open part1 with WinRAR and choose to extract the files to wherever, it extracts all five parts for you, as long as you have them all in the same directory. Seems like the same goes for most rar unarchivers.

The wiki has a pretty good setup for those fights.
Basically, Mokou/Sakuya team on Akame, basically just restarting if shit goes wrong (and it will); I think Sanae on the Chihiro team to help against the instant death; and just brute force on Kagami. In fact, the best strategy is to just nuke the shit out of everything and be careful with tentacles or fangs you won't learn.

Today's update mostly talks about game balance and game changes.

You can go anywhere on the map at any time you want. You can even warp to the area you want to go to.

Instead of getting stuck on a boss that's too hard for you and not being able to continue. You can now just go to another area and continue to make progress.

Equipment is simplified. 1 weapon, 1 shield, 1 armor, 1 accessory. Shikigami cannot equip items. Resistances have only 3 levels.

Tomorrow we should be getting another update.

A few things.
Run it in Windows 95 compatibility.
Set your system to Japanese locale.
Check if your folder is in foreign letters, some computers can't seem to handle them if your directory is too far in and has foreign letters.
Make sure you have Lingering Summer Heat version 2.06 of the game for the English patch.

Things look too cluttered and small. All the characters look like they've been ripped from a generic video game and don't have the unique touch that Genius of Sappheiros has. I see it as a huge step back. Even the sprites for Utsuho's attacks look like shit. Hopefully they'd polish it before releasing.

Actually, scratch that. Hopefully they'd scrap the entire thing and make it from the bottom up. Nothing looks clean now, it's all over-designed crap.

Sprites seem a bit derpier, but at least some parts of GoS's core gameplay seem to still be present (like the land gauge on the upper left).
All I can say is that I am excite. Or rather, that I will be excite three years after the release, when the game gets a translation patch. I guess that's good too, because I doubt I'll be able to run it with my current computer.

Also, we've hit bump limit, so Mokou might want to make a new thread once /jp/ gets spammed again.

I assume you are talking about it being cluttered because of the new shikigami system.
It seems like there are 10 characters sprites on your side instead of the normal 5, so I can see why it would look cluttered.
That menu looks like it got changed for the better. It looks like it is + instead of rotating circle. If they did change it, then all the better, since you can get to the skill you want with less button presses.
But if they did not, then oh well.

Inaba has resistances to certain mind effects like berserk, enchant, rule. She also seems to make things like buffs or debuffs last a turn longer.
