I am on Chapter 5-1, and I am having an issue with some wyrms in the corners of the maps. Maybe I am forgetting/missing something, but is there any way to force them out? They just sit on the corners and spam breath attacks without moving


Edit: Nevermind, corners count as surrounding, whoops

Just pulled an S Rank Lizard Swordswoman named Sha'plar and she seems really good? Is Shadow Element, has 2 pincer attacks on Job 2, an Area on Job 3 and a 30% Instant Death proc on Job 1.

One shot the 9-10 Golem, and I got him as a drop. It would be kind of cool if some monster units were worth using outside of the debuff thing, like if they had different jobs, too.

Choose one or the other and stick with it, when you l get to Ch 12+ leveling up someone quickly via metal zones is much easier since you can bring higher level units to weight the average

Does this mean bring higher level units to low level zones or lower level ones to high zones?

Okay I am Bad At Game, how the gently caress do I deal with these mantledrakes at the end of chap 6-10 or whatever (the magma mantle chapter), they seem to be the first enemies with real AI that prevents me from getting them to get the gently caress out of the corner behind a wall of magma they're hiding in, and they have 2200 hps so they can eat two or three well-orchestrated hits from my 20-25ish party and then AOE them into the loving lava and then attack me next turn before I can get anyone around them again.. REALLY wish I had levitate. :(

Yeah, however both might say "5k" and then you go into a metal level, gain 50k and notice the SS guy's bar barely moves...

I am reasonably sure all characters got the same actual experience number last Metal Zone I did and I have guys Rank S to B in my group

So someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but does the stamina "battery" meter take longer to restore 1 point, the more chapters you beat? I recall when I started that it'd only take 3 or 4 minutes for 1 point of stamina, and now down at chap 10ish, I just noticed that the "battery" can be over half-empty and still say 4+ minutes..

You're always going to either get Grace or the Sword chick (I forgot her name). Grace's second job gives her a decent AOE ability although its targetting is a bit odd.


And yeah, the Lion King is badass, he hits like a truck and he's still 5-8 levels below most of my party.

Its targeting is actually a 1 block area around her such as:

xxx
xox
xxx


If you position her on a chain near enemies it is pretty great


Edit: Whoop, just pulled my first SS

Eh, it's Camellia

Also got Bonna though :toot:

Yeah I understand that, it's just that the skill chance is low enough it doesn't go off as reliably as I expect, and I've also seen her do that "arrow storm" AOE or whatever it's called, on groups of enemies a couple squares away from her. I was like :catstare: because I thought I'd figured out that it always centered around her.

She has Megabow and Megabow [Area 1]. You probably had her as one of the characters leading the Pincer and both of the skills went off.

I want all the drakes. How long does the event last? Any obvious things I should know going in?

Bahamut is Fire Element and has a Hit-All attack he opens with and alternates Column/Row fire attacks. The rest of the guys are all pretty simple and forgiving as any large group starts out with 2-3 turn delay. There are some dudes that lay poison but they aren't that obnoxious. If you are above the level of the zone, which is 20, it is pretty simplistic. I guess the reward is supposed to be a chance to drop Bahamut?

Inferior Third Season posted:

I just started playing two days ago. My pulls so far have been Sha'plar and Olber, which I think are pretty decent.

But I've noticed that the tile switching fucks up fairly regularly. I thought it might just be me making imprecise movements, but then one time I moved through two of my guys that were next to each other and pinned against the wall by enemies, and the second one didn't move, creating a gap between them, which should not have been possible to do. It's very annoying when this happens, because this can create gaps unfillable by anything other than the movement tile, and there simply isn't enough time with the timer to fix it and set up the attack. Is this happening to anyone else? (iPhone 4, btw)

It has happened to me a few times, but it hasn't happened often at all. I'm on Chapter 18 now for reference. Sha'plar is really good and one of the melee characters that gets abilities to attack out of pincer (mage second job) and Olber is good for support/melee I think. He has a few heals and a tank ability as well as a couple Evasion buffs so he has a kind of unique role

I don't like that guy. His first job is fine, but his second (and possibly third?) jobs switch from archer to some kind of Mage with no spells? He turns into some kinda lame anti-poison guy. It's a bizarre design choice considering he's "the marksman" in title. I honestly don't even know how to classify him but I jobbed him up weeks ago without doing my research. He doesn't have nearly enough damaging potential to use long term. I found out that the hard way since he was one of my original pulls on this run.

He actually has okay dmg potential but it is all in higher levels and his third job. A lot of it is area so he can activate abilities while in a chain rather than a pincer initiator

My sentiments on this guy is the same as the person above. I just wanted to add that he's farmable, so if this is like a starting roll, I would reroll.

This is a coin roll meaning it ain't possible to be a starting roll
