The LP did help me a little with things, which was nice. Especially when quest item names were apparently not translated the same each time. And I will settle on a party. Eventually. It's gonna happen. Aerofallosov fucked around with this message at 22:14 on Nov 3, 2017 |

Is it just me or does floor 20 have a bazillion random encounters? Sheesh, every few steps, man.

Violently Car posted:The branches that lead to gathering in particular seem to have a very high encounter rate, so try to stay out of those unless you need the stuff. Makes sense. Also I'm about to get the boss of the forth stratum. Any advice? Any advice for getting to or beating crystal dragon? My group is Cannon Dragoon/Barrage Pugilist/Punishment Shaman/Hound Rover/Omnimancer warlock

So, what works well with a masurao? I'm not sure if I'd do four swords or one. I was thinking: Harbringer/masurao/dragoon/shaman or botanist/warlock. Or swap the harbringer with a pugilist. I guess I'd need the botanist if four swords happens. They just look so cool. What skills should I focus on before mastery anyhoo?

Oh dear lord, the forth stratum boss keeps just one shotting people with abilities even though I've followed the strat. I guess I need more levels or better gear. My poor tank, even with reduced stuff, watches as the party dies around her. Maybe I'll see what I can buy and explore the sealed areas. Is it a good idea to explore the sealed areas in the earlier stratum BEFORE the forth boss? Aerofallosov fucked around with this message at 20:31 on Nov 6, 2017 |

Rangpur posted:I don't see why not. The enemies are roughly equivalent in terms of stats to the ones on the 4th stratum though they have some nasty gimmicks. There's nothing there that will make or break a boss attempt though--Crystal Dragon's just kind of an rear end in a top hat that way. Getting everyone the best available armor is recommended, even if you have to grind for it. Yeah, I got a level or two and he still hits like a truck. I'm gonna finish these sealed areas before I go to fifth. I finally got the crystal dragon!

Well, the fifth stratum doesn't play around. I've never gotten game overs quite so much on random trash.

AAAH. ANGRY BIRBS. ANGRY BIRBS! I am enjoying the fifth stratum so far, though the music is really, really quiet. I keep contemplating getting the DLC portraits, but I'm not sure. What is a chain killer party anyway?

I see what they mean about the lion FOEs now. The fifth stratum is definitely a step up on the hateometer for adventurers.

# ¿ Nov 8, 2017 03:34 |

I love that encounter. Is there a map of F22? I can't make progress unless I beat this FOE, and I am pretty sure this lion is going to kick my party's faces in.

Blademaster_Aio posted:There is very much a way around them, and it's sort of a detour, but mostly simple. First of all, the lion aggros on you in a certain range, not when you enter the room. Yeah, I'm using them, but I'm missing SOMETHING. That's why I figured I'd ask about a map. Also gotta go farm some more of those heavy ferrules for the petrification. What floor is best to find shrooms on? 2 or 3? I know about the squares, but... I keep messing up, or missing something. We'll see how it goes.

What's the skill progression for a deathbringer to be Harbringer? I don't want to crimp my side party since it helps me destress from the zaniness on the fifth stratum.

Man, this elemental chain party just deletes things once it gets rolling. I've gotten to 23F. GRABBITY.

Honestly, on hippogryph, I didn't do any HP lowering moves because he'd just stomp my pugilist into mud if she weren't at full.

Binds are good. You wanna bind the head to stop rest and panic glare. I think arms stops the bind claw/mace thing, and legs stops the piercing kick/sky thing (I think, don't quote me on that).

Jimmy Hats posted:It occurs to me that the 5 Harbinger run would be a lot more impressive if it was 5 brouni harbingers. Better restart! I think he's unhealthy enough, let's not make it worse. Also, I am bad at sliding puzzles. But I'm trying. My oddly composed party is slowly chugging through the fifth stratum. It's a cannon dragoon, barrage pugilist, omnimancer warlock, punishment shaman (brouni) and a hound rover.

Thanks, guys. I have so far avoided ANGRY BORBS(TM). Do the headbinds stop the heal, too? And now I am hunting a goat so someone can decorate their living room.

I'm on 24 now. This is getting rough. I know my party comp's a little odd, but these FOE puzzles sometimes feel like they drag out a bit until I can find the nearest shortcut.

Blademaster_Aio posted:Just wait till you get to the next floor. Oh boy, I just got to 25. Maybe I'll just enjoy my little chain murder or work on my Gothaparty with the necro and harbringer. I do wish this game was as forgiving as 4 was for party comp. I'm still sad my dragoon/pugilist/warlock/botanist/hawk rover didn't work out for want of more damage and the hawk kept going splat when the boss turned around to it.

I wish it were a little more forgiving on party comp, but I'm digging the game tons so far. I love my chain link party, and my main party is sloggin' through 25F okay. I just needed a break from 25F, much as I crab at it.

I have bad luck, so I'm going with the elemental chain party. Works pretty alright so far. Bit worried about the third stratum boss, admittedly.

Would harbringer and punishment shaman work well together in a party for EO5? I fell off it, so I want to start with a new party. I am thinking harbringer/dragoon/Pugilist?/punishment shaman/?? (Healing rover? Warlock? Necromancer?). Could swap a masurao for the pugilist. Picking a party is the hardest part...

# ¿ Apr 20, 2018 02:51 |

I'm excited for this game! Even though I am sad about the class balance... I think I prefer EOIV to V and I'm not sure why. Maybe IV was my first and I made some pretty derpy builds, but I slowly made it on through. V is pretty rad, though. I ended up going with harbinger/dragoon/botanist (to be poisony)/warlock/dog rover.
