Lonk Posted January 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 NO.EX 01 is one of the most amazing things to listen to for some reason. It's the battle music that plays in major story battles involving enemy skells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Well, I had to start over. Let's see if I can get most of these quests right. Aoja, tell her to stay put.

Shradow Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 [spoiler=TIL about the Millesaurus' real face.] So that thing they're drinking water with is some sort of long mouth, you can break it off by attacking that body part in battle.

Lonk Posted January 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Milesauruses hurt... bad. I made the mistake of picking a fight with one unprepared. I got one-hit four killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 So am I just bad or are bosses annoyingly difficult unless you're overleved as heck? I got my butt kicked by the Fierce Vigent and Tainted Sphinx in their respective quests despite being a bit higher than each boss's level while I had equipped the best gear available to me from what I've looted/bought and as augmented as I could make them, and used the Soul Voices as much as I could, and just decided to beat them in the easier mode you can do after losing enough times, in which case they were both way too easy. The scaling is sort of weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scaling is sort of weird. That depends on the current set-up of your team and arts. What are they? Though, from what I understand, larger enemies are treated as being much more stronger than what their level says they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 For the Tainted Sphinx I had Cross as a Bastion Warrior along with Lin, Elma, and Lao since those three are required for Chapter 6. Everyone was at 25 except I think Lao was a bit lower. Arts for everyone else was default, and I had Wild Smash, Missile Volley, Fire Carnival, Shield Wall, Flame Cloak, Trash Talk, Reality Rift, and Enhanced Stance on Cross. Despite being melee-focused, I wasn't to rank 6 of Bastion Warrior yet so I didn't have Bombardier, and I don't like the Tension cost for Wild Down so Wild Smash was my only melee Art. I get that larger enemies are generally stronger, but it seems a bit much. Also, it's odd that Story Missions always have the required level only be 1, though obviously the prerequisite Affinity Missions can be a bit of a benchmark as well. Like, in the final fight of Chapter 5, had I not already been a couple levels or so over, there was no way I was going to be able to do it, and even then it was hard fought.

Lonk Posted January 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 I don't know much about the Bastion Warrior class, but have you tried leveling up your Arts and Skills? Also, Wild Down is amazing when paired up with Elma's Shadow Strike, since it topples the Tainted Sphinx. If you leveled up Trash Talk to a good Level, you can also gain a good amount of TP for Wild Down. Be sure to also use the Gattling Gun's auto attack to gain TP as well. What does Flame Cloak do again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 but have you tried leveling up your Arts and Skills? I knew I was forgetting something. So I am just bad, kek. And Flame Cloak increases Thermal Resistance for the party, I just had it for more Soul Voice healing options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Flame Cloak increases Thermal Resistance for the party, I just had it for more Soul Voice healing options. My advice is to drop Flame Cloak for Wild Down, since you already have Shield Wall (which sustains the Buff Art needed for Soul Voices) and Flame Cloak is pretty useless against the Tainted Sphinx. I also recommend leveling up all of your currently-used Arts to 3 and bring Trash Talk, Shield Wall and Reality Rift to Level 4 or 5 if you can. You will see a major improvement with your strategy if you do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 I get asked fairly often for the Support Arts so I wanted both since Shield Wall by itself is on cooldown for awhile, but I'll try it out. I don't think it's necessarily an issue of strategy, more like the scaling of damage/boss health is a bit imbalanced. But perhaps that will change once I level up my arts and skills.

When the scaling of damage and health increases, then brute force becomes much less useful and strategy becomes much more important. At this point, the game knows that you have enough resources to take down any creatures in your path so it pits you against larger foes to test the skills you have developed. When you are able to get you Skell however, you can fight larger enemies on equal grounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Yeah, I can start the missions to get my Skell License now, however tomorrow I return to campus where I use my friend's Wii U since my family uses mine at home, so I'll be starting over anyways.

Shradow Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Yeah, at the time I just decided to do the easy setting since I wanted to hurry and get my Skell, but then I got kicked off by my mom and sister so they could use the Wii U for Netflix.

Shradow Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 So what sort of characters did you guys make? Using the Boy A face with the short spiky hair I made my guy look like a pretty good representation of Archer from Fate/stay night since I happened to notice the similarities when choosing my hair style initially and I went with it. Shame the eyebrows don't change color with the hair, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the other question, I tried to make my character look like a studious hispanic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonk Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 I just finished up doing 'A False Hope' and I have to say that it is seriously messed up to the point where I would called it f*'d up. [spoiler=The Affinity Mission]Ornella, Hope's mother figure and partner, was selling off Hope's clients to the Ganglion to make money. She absolutely despised Hope because she offered all of her services for free. She badmouthed Hope's deceased father, telling her that his kindness is what got him fleeced and murdered. Even when Hope said that she still would want Ornella to come back to NLA, Ornella refuses and kills herself in front of Hope. That's... a way to end an affinity mission. The worst part is that the person who is most affected by this, Hope, is a complete sweetheart who would help everyone out of pure goodwill.

Astro Dude Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 I know. Ornella just made it to other peoples hated characters list. Here's one of my questions as an example: Can we save Ge Jewhe by finding the bracelet or do we let him die? Which leads to a more positive outcome?

Expelsword Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 I was very surprised when I found out where Pharsis was, I knew that sphere had to be something, but I never noticed the pathway into it.[spoiler=Results]It was a very onesided fight.

Makο Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 With the Ares.90, I'm having trouble finding the motivation to play again, because that thing disintegrates anything that's not a super-mob. Can someone tell me the Global Nemesis situation? I have some grinding to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonk Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Believe it or not, the Ares.90 isn't the best Skell in the game. Actually, it's the worst Lv. 60 Skell frame in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Isn't it super strong at a base level, just it's beaten by any well-customized Lv. 60 Skell or something? I've heard various things about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
