Any recommendations for Sorc skills? I have no idea which of these to bother with. Food and protection are probably good, dunno what else. vvvvv e: not really. You're not meant to hang on to one NPC helper indefinitely. Just toss them out when you find a higher level one. Hell considering how willing they are to just join into your game if you leave slots open you probably could go without resurrecting them ever. see you tomorrow fucked around with this message at 06:24 on Aug 7, 2013 |

Feenix posted:What do extra bags do? The way Samuel introduced them it made it sound like it was backup gear for dungeons, but I noticed only one can be equipped at a time. Is it just a way of organizing an alternate loadout but only accessible in overworld? When you start chaining from one dungeon to the next you get the opportunity to change bags mid-stage. This is important because there's no way to repair equipment until you quit the run but you want to keep it going for as long as possible because your loot bonus grows with every consecutive stage that you clear. Also lets magic classes pick weapons which best suit the stage because the last thing you want to do is try and fight the Kraken with only fire magic.

Samurai Sanders posted:The only things I have ever found this way is trinkets worth a few hundred gold, and I have more gold than I know what to do with, is it ok just to ignore them? It's probably worth doing a bit but not to the extent that you're spending more time tapping on the background than actually playing the game. Just do it while you're eating or waiting for chests/doors to be opened or watching another player do a rune thing. Remember you get a time bonus too.

Samurai Sanders posted:I dunno what to say, except that the current main quest is level 10 and I am level 13. Is the game balanced such that you SHOULDN'T do any side quests or anything, if you want to stay at the right level? I don't think being three levels over at the beginning of the game is really cause for alarm. Being level 10 wouldn't make the game massively more challenging at that point. It's not meant to be. You're still in what is basically the extended tutorial.

Kanos posted:You'll never put out anywhere near the amount of raw damage output as an amazon or a dwarf or a well-played elf, but you're so loving useful it doesn't matter. No one else has shitloads of free healing or full-party nigh-invulnerability and basically every single one of her "attack" spells is an amazing form of crowd control. Playing her is rad as hell and I love my skeleton bros. Rock Drop is pretty popular because it's her strongest single attack. Does a nice job of wasting regular enemies when they're bunched up or just hitting bosses hard. Comes with more casts than most spells Ice Prison does negligible damage but nicely slices the screen into thirds. I'm not using it but I've read that it can completely trap some bosses. Sounds handy. Thunderhead doesn't seem great but I haven't seen anyone using higher levels of it. Maybe it's great later. I'd be interested in hearing how Curse and Petrify are. see you tomorrow fucked around with this message at 18:34 on Aug 9, 2013 |

Million Ghosts posted:I dunno, I've never had anything this bad in other games, other then never connecting to rooms in P4A. May as well keep trying. It is interesting though when you're fighting a boss and it just dies out of nowhere. Been playing MP almost nonstop since I unlocked it and haven't experienced anything like that. The worst I've gotten is the aforementioned inability to move through a door thing, which I'm pretty sure only happens while additional players are in the process of connecting to the game. Always get that tiny hiccup when someone begins to join followed by ten or twenty seconds of no room transitions. Not that bad.

Having a Sorc with Protection makes fighting the Red Dragon in the treasure room a lot easier too. Well, I guess Protection makes everything a lot easier. I still find the Arch Demon more difficult though. When you get him under 50% health he just flips out and starts spewing a bunch of ridiculous spells that are super hard to avoid. Every fight against him ends up grueling.

If you run past Medusa when she first appears and continue the stage there's a decent chance that you'll run into some owlbears before you meet her again. They seem to be a bit more common on higher difficulties and in the random dungeon too.

Million Ghosts posted:The Ancient Dragon is wrecking my poo poo as a Wizard. Pretty appropriate for a final boss really. I have no idea what to do during his tornados or how I'm supposed to avoid things other than cowering behind the pillars. A lot of his attacks can be dispelled before they actually go off. Hit the sparks hanging in the air before they form into tornados. Same with the slow fireballs that fall from the top of the screen. You can even cancel the big fireballs he spits out if you hit them right as they exit his mouth. e: Hackan Slash hop back on and I'll do it again with you. Turns out that it goes real quick when you bring an Amazon along.

Aqua Outlaw posted:I'm working on my sorceress but haven't reached multiplayer yet. So far I have points in some of the MP skills, protection, create food and bonebros. I've held off on the active skills until I get deep pockets for the extra slots. Between blizzard, thunder cloud and rock press what is good? Is gravity combined with rock press as badass as I imagine it? Blizzard is always super good, Thunder Clouds are pretty nice at high ranks, Rock Press is her strongest single attack and comes with a lot of casts so you can toss it around a lot. I've never ever seen anyone use Gravity so maybe it's awesome? e: basically pick what you want, but I'd strongly recommend Blizzard for its capacity to completely shut down a screenful of enemies.

Polo-Rican posted:Has anyone on earth prevented the boat from capsizing in the pirate level? The framerate drops to 12fps, tentacles just flop around everywhere, you can't see where the torch is, and then wham, it's over!! I'm not even sure which of the four cannons you're supposed to fire and why. Managed to do it exactly twice with groups online. You need to have a dedicated torch holder while everyone else loads cannons. It's super important that everyone without a torch dogpiles on the tentacle that grabs the mast as soon as it pops up. Helps a lot to have a Sorc cast Protection because the tentacles are a pain in the rear end to avoid while you're trying to load cannons. All you get for completing it is a high rank chest and to skip the fight with the lizard guys before the Kraken.

For the beginner class Fighters sure are harder to play than Sorceresses and Wizards. Probably not helped by the way that fully half of their skills make them more vulnerable to getting killed. e: magic classes don't lose their weapons every time they get hit either.
