I'm working on some gimmick builds just for fun, and maybe for a full on low upgrade/unit clear gimmick run namely a nuke for Van, an armor/shieldtank for Lelouch, and an evadetank for Suzaku, but I'm not sure on a few mechanical bits exactly, just a shot in the dark if someone more familiar might know the ins and outs: -I remember reading what feels like forever ago that weapon/unit ranks affect damage, with an S rank in both relevant ones being about a 10% damage buff for the relevant terrain, is that still applicable? Not sure whether running the SSSS part for full ranks is worth it vs some just flat damage output parts. -I assume part based barriers and unit based barriers operate on the same 'slot' so to speak, so like equipping an under-2500 nulling orgone cloud on the gekkoei with its 4000 null barrier would just measure against the 4k, yeah? -Does the 10% chance-based modifier from the Junk Terminal play nice with the Causality Manipulator and its 'under-30% always dodge' thing? I remember messing with similar effect parts in a previous game but I never really felt like I could tell if it was really working or not, but in combination with the all defensor taking away the repeated targetting modifier, could def be useful. Might be better to just go with a jacked-up mobility stat boost instead though, idk. Not like anything really 'requires' it I guess, but it's fun messing around. Kinda wish I had a better means of testing stuff out, maybe the super ultra hard difficulty thing might work once that comes out, just throw a unit into a Front stage and test some stuff out.

So I finished the first set of DLC missions and plotwise: While the early parts are built for the early story the later parts are clearly intended to be Postgame and it pretty bluntly says that there's more plot to come. Maybe that'll be DLC2 but it REALLY seems like they are intending something post-game. They spend most of the DLC building up an Ominous Something Still To Come. If nothing else I doubt the final set can be done anytime before the postgame because they involve postgame plot and dealing with the leftover pillars.

I think an S adaptor or similar is generally going to boost damage by more than most +attack power parts, assuming the attacks you want to boost don't already have S ranks. For pure damage on a low upgrade run, I think your best options for a 3 slot unit are the Extra Arms X or Omega, S Adaptor and Brave Police Emblem. I haven't tested multiple barriers in this game but I'm pretty sure in previous games damage canceling barriers like Gekkokei's do not stack with damage reducing barrier parts. I honestly don't know how Junk Terminal works at all. For mobility, S ranks are probably the best thing you can get. S ranks are +30% to final evasion, the equivalent of an always on Focus. I don't think the repeated targeting modifier is a very big deal in this game, and in Suzaku's case he doesn't mind taking a couple hits because he has Potential 9 through Curse of Geass, which just makes him dodgier (and tankier).

I believe "chance based events" includes things like special evasion, and possibly shield block? It would have included Shoot Down/Blade Block back in the day. Or skills like Lucky in OG. I'm not sure how many of those there are in 30, honestly.

Do they have an ETA on patching the Red 5 bug? I got warned by a friend while warming up the game for the night, so I didn't actually start a mission or get the freebies, but  I just want to robot, man!!

Yeah this is also how I understood it, which is why I was wondering if like, having a causality manipulator and junk terminal on at the same time might make it so you 'effectively' have perma evade anything under 40% and perma hit on anything over 60%, or if it'd apply the evade thing before modifiers. Cheers on the damage tips tho. atm I'm using victorious turn and the 30th anniversary part for 40%, soldiers medallion for 235 morale, the ogami and lelouch stat buffs, and the 10% from being in command range of the dreiss. With the 40% counterattack bonus from van, I got 250k with just Charge, I can only imagine what having god's judgment will be like.

I forgot about Victorious Turn. That's definitely the best damage item. I was actually partly wrong about weapon rank multipliers. They are calculated earlier in the damage formula than other multipliers so an S rank is more valuable than a generic +10%. As for Soldiers Medallion it's generally worse than the big weapon attack parts by my math. Weapon attack vs the generic 10% damage parts is more complicated math than I am capable of, but apparently damage multipliers are multiplicative so I lean towards those being better when you are already stacking a bunch of them.

I think this game's particular non-linear layout is why people are now desiring the feature, but basically I (and others) want this feature so that etc when I replay the game with a different MC, I can just choose to read the different protagonist lines rather than the 20 lines from the other characters that are the same in every playthrough, along with just watching the scene variants by having characters that weren't there on your previous playthrough because of different mission order etc If anyone wants to look up a modern VN that has this functionality, look up the Zero Escape series - I can't imagine going through Virtue's Last Reward without being able to skip 99% of the repeated text every playthrough.

When do I get the Hi-nu? I didn’t get it in the first mission for it, and after I got regular Nu, the mission hasn’t shown up. Also, does it get the Nu’s upgrades?

So uh... it turns out (DLC spoilers) 30's version of the Hi-Nu has some of its Psycoframe taken from the Unicorn itself, and also Amuro's dad made a full recovery and developed an updated version of the RX-78's learning computer for it

Had a somewhat funny moment in the DLC where the game intended on spawning some enemies for the appearing characters to wipe out, but the enemy did not spawn. The dialogue and characters appeared fine, and so I got to see the characters zoom around an empty space and everyone else respond like they killed something. I appreciate the game was well coded enough this sort of thing didn't even bother it and it moved right along without any issues.

Willo567 posted:So if you buy the DLC, are these missions available before you beat them game or not? Yeah, you can start them once you've completed the first 4 missions and can go from Space to Earth or vice-versa. I'm not sure if they're all available from the start or if some are locked based on main story progress, but judging from deploy requirements it looks like you can do the Hi-Nu mission once you get Amuro (at least, I assume it's the Hi-Nu mission) and the Sakura Wars missions are a chain.

Just noticed that the patch also broke the Error! No match StringID's name. It now says Gedlav. I have no idea what a Gedlav is or how that name got there but I hope the Red 5 fix also fixes this.
