Is there a way to bait Manhandla into showing it weakness. Got annoyed last night because for three minutes straight on the (kill 800 enemies in X minute map) it would just use poison or spin around.

Stand at range to bait it. Like 1 Manhandla's length away.

I put off doing the skyward sword quiz for a while cuz i never played that game, then i went for it and it’s like.. kill the dark wizard! (gharanim: time to fight a dark wizard!) kill the heavyweight! (a moblin and a skeleton appear) kill the sword spirit!

I wonder how hard they get later

The hard part about the quizzes isn't the questions, it's that sometimes the right answer has way more health than the wrong answer so you have to tiptoe around trying not to sneeze on the wrong enemy and kill them, failing the quiz.

Yeah, there was one of those that really pissed me off back in the Master Quest map in the Wii-U version that had the restriction that prevents you from using stuff like the boomerang for the mission, and a reward for A-Ranking it as Zelda. The second and third questions had both Midna and Lana as potential answers. Except the only weapons I had for Zelda were her Rapier (light element) and the Baton (lightning element). Midna's weak to light, Lana's weak to lightning. And since you couldn't use the boomerang to stun the one you didn't need to kill, you constantly had both of them getting up in your grill, and you would inevitably end up killing the wrong target because they'd keep throwing themselves in your line of fire or even just take enough incidental splash damage to push them over the edge before you could kill the correct one. :argh:

You could just do what I do, and not get it and just use your magic bar on the helmarock king. It generates pretty fast when there's two people fighting the bird

I don’t hate it but that one definitely stands out as being much less rad than most of the soundtrack.

I don't MIND that one? But oh my god game stop playing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTTFPE6yrbY at the end of every single map, it sucks. One of the bigger upgrades in Fire Emblem Warriors was that its standard "switch to this track for the last quarter of a level" tracks were all really good, but Kumite or whatever is just annoying.

Yeah that one is pretty bad, through it at least changes a little after a few seconds unlike Under Siege.

Speaking of music, didn't using your magic meter used to change the music?

ElegantFugue
Jun 5, 2012

Does it not, any more? There were four versions of most tracks. A base version, an enemy keep version with more guitars, a Magic mode version with MAXIMUM GUITARS, and then a quiet soft version for the pause screen.

Edit: No wait it varied per stage, a lot of them had combined Enemy Keep and Magic Mode versions, and others were missing a few. So if you're activating Magic Mode while in an enemy keep in anything but one of the Eclipse of the X maps or the desert, you won't get a different track because those are the same modifier.

EDIT: also yeah, it changes, but it changes into 30 seconds of loop and then further changes into even more boring stuff around 50 seconds in.

I am always very happy when Cia or Ganondorf ends up as the enemy commander of a given mission because that usually means they bring their own boss music to the field (not always in Ganondorf's case, but often enough).

And yes, one point for Fire Emblem Warriors for having pretty much all it's "end mission" tracks be loving awesome to listen to!

It was mentioned before, and it worked for me the few times I tried it, but you can hit his block a couple times and he'll likely retaliate with his weak point attack. It only hits directly in front of him so it's relatively easy to dodge behind and break him.

What the gently caress is going on in this “don’t let allied captains flee” Great Sea mission? There’s way too much fighting and there’s no way I’ll be able to save all the captains.

The "Two Armies" adventure mode missions are annoying because of your allied captains just dropping like flies. Kill a captain from one army? The other army gets buffed. Level the playing field? Well now the other army got buffed. And the second their big dots on the map touch your dude's dots on the map you're instantly bombarded with the friendly captains going from in trouble to danger to fleeing 4 seconds apart.

The only way i've found to get through them reliably is to be severely overleveled. I've still not been able to do the Twilight Midna one on the first map despite pumping her level up to 60.

I got a weapon for Cia that's got a purple locked skill like the Master Sword does. Examining it says only "seal broken by unlocking the power of exorcism" though I guess I can see what it is for 100,000 rupees. What is the unlock condition referring to here? I don't remember non-master sword locked skills in the Wii U version.

If it's the same as the 3DS version, you won't unlock that skill until you have all the Master Sword skills unlocked. That's end game equipment.

Adventure Mode is so much better with the item card shop. Being able to just buy compasses for a token fee rather than playing with gamefaqs open is nice.

I just got to the map where Ganondorf has to fight the imprisoned and 2 baby imprisoned inside a keep. Ah yes :shepface:

I find it kinda funny, back in the wii-u version I had a ton of Shield Moblin hats and no flanks. Here I'm drowning in flank items but not the hats

Like I think they forgot to program shield moblins into the game after a point as well as redeads. I have 50+ of everything else while they sit at 0 and my characters are begging for them.
