True, though like all Matsuno games, they're swimming in hidden mechanics just kind of because.

The max stats total for a hired unit you can get from the shop is 278-280 (excluding HP/MP). There are a few template variations for each generic (with their default stats that are good for berserkers, knights, ninjas build).

Thanks, I'm a first time player and got stuck at the end of Chapter 2. I basically made it to this point with no upgrades, no monster recruits, stock characters by just making a bee line for the leader. Now I'm farming for all +1 crafted items in phorompa wildwood before I start any of chapter 3. I've felt like I'm playing hollow knight all over again :-). Triangle strategy was just ok, this is possibly the best game I've ever played in my life, my attention is fully captured 30+ hours which never happens for me.

I find, in Reborn the Rune Fencer/Valkyrie is a super strong class, much stronger then in the PSP version. On the PSP they where constrained by all the skills you needed to really do allot damage, which means either you go full Physical or full Magic setup. Here though they are just limited in how many spells they can carry.

I think you should do a video on one of the coolest but least used aspects of the game: Beast elevation As in, beasts can be treated as a 3 elevation platform to shortcut walls, bridge gaps for the one tile jump, make gradual inclines for jump challenged mages, create gaps in Rampart Auras your unit can jump through, etcetc It's great fun and making visual guides with movement cost contrasts really shows you how carefully they really designed each battle map and why walls are the height they are.

Started with FFT too, and it's quite the ride. One of very few games where I can honestly say almost every first assumption will be wrong, and almost every dang thing is a mechanical rabbit hole, despite appearing simple. I love this game.

Swordmasters were amazing in the ORIGINAL PSOne version. You could run around and poison and petrify just about everyone with a solidly built Swordsmaster. This new version... is very different. They also used to be able to wield two swords back then, much like ninjas. Now they can't. They are a completely different class.

Yeah, but they have been for over a decade. They were kind of "The Hamedo guy that does Bard and Dancer stuff" coming off of FFT, but kind of sucked there. They could petrify on their first finisher, could pretty much always petrify with a Macuahatl, and yet they were a paper thin ghost of a class. This time they kept that idea, but you don't need to burn fans to do their dances, they hit hard, their Preempt-Knockback build is just a skill of it's own, and you can combine their moves instead of praying you didn't get smushed on an attacking round.

Griffin is the one early game unit I can't live without. I feel like I could make a team of only Warriors work as long as I had a Griffin in there. The first Phorampa map should be a mandatory stop for new players. You can recruit Hawkmen and Griffins there. An early-game Cleric with flight is great to have. Hawkmen also make great Beast Tamers, thanks to flight + lobber + double recruiting allowing them to go wherever they need to be and also recruit many more creatures for you. Or you can give them the beast tamer monster buff moves and have them follow around their creatures. A squad with Canopus, Hawkman beast tamer and Griffin works really well. I think the monsters make a huge difference on the game's difficulty, especially early. The AI redirection is so essential. It pretty much always works too, even on bosses. A single Griffin can make Oz and Ozma so much easier, or any other boss fight where the boss starts with 4 cards. It's rare for them to die in one turn. If they do, you just revive them and they get their turn back immediately, so they can proc Dash and run to the back lines for heals. Monsters got such massive buffs in Reborn compared to PSP, imo. I kinda wish you could recruit some in Chapter 1. I'm not a fan of Worlding around and would rather just do full "runs" of the game. Early Lizardmen/Medusae would be great too.

Also, the way Preempt works with Swordmaster's critical to prevent attacks. (...and) Absorb MP being used defensively to prevent casting from mages. (...and also) Knights using crossbows in order to effectively 'block' enemies from moving by standing in a good spot but still being able to chip damage. (...) How to use Ninjas the most effectively so they don't just die. ...and tons more stuff. Just little nuanced things that I think add up to making a big difference in strategy. I mean, I've been getting through the game just fine and my builds have been mostly OK but I feel like I'm going to kick a little more butt now going forward. Oh! And I've been using my Beasttamer with whips and putting beefy healing potions in and lobbing them for heals. I've never used bombs before... I need to change this.

The shop units usually have better stats than the recruitable ones in story battles (or dungeons), because You can get the maximum total stats of 278-280 for every Level 1 generic unit from the shop. For every generic unit in the shop, they have several templates (from a defensive type to an all rounder type). For example, You can make a tanky wizard/archer with poor INT/DEX or a squishy warrior with poor VIT. Reroll a few times, and You will see there are only a few stats combinations. Too bad we can't hire any hawkmen from the shop like in PSX.

This is my first experience with any game in this series, and I am in chapter 2. Thought I would point out that I was stunned to find out the meaning of the status effect stunned: "SOMETIMES unable to take action" I went out of my way to get a weapon that stunned, and the first couple times, I thought I must be confused. I would get the symbol on an enemy I attacked, and then they would quickly take their turn anyway. Now, I go to the enemy's "card" and mouseover the status effect and find out the unhappy truth. Since this has happened the first three times implies that "sometimes" is not a super high percentage. I think that this is the sort of thing that all the online tip videos kind of slides over. Sometimes you talk about the odds that something like poison will fire, but how about the certainty and length of effect if it does fire? In my mind, at least, that is part of the valuation of a given strategy. Whether it is worth getting the weapon and the skill and the actions in battle to inflict a status effect depends a lot on what you actually accomplish when you succeed.

@CoffeePotato

Жыл бұрын

Fair, but it's also hard to quantify in this one as well. So in simple terms, it just means you can slow down something with a debuff that's easy to spread. Hard to quantify, but easy to feel. So then let's say "you have a 15% chance to hit with a debuff that causes a unit to lose a turn 50% of the time. The duration of this debuff is based on chance and Mind score, with the brackets moving up to the point where a high Mind unit can be scary with any debuff lasting ages. This is further scaled based on each unit's daily Luck, and some percentage based modifiers can lock these into their maximum value. " Easier to quantity on paper, does nothing for feeling it out, and really doesn't explain why it's useful. So that's why I try to just explain how to guarantee it, and hope folks will see how it works in practice. While it's not guaranteed to take effect, any Stumble can be massive. It's a debuff that can potentially ruin consecutive turns, save a unit about to be killed, stop a heal, anything. This is actually the nerfed version, too. In PSP it also prevented any Counter actions. Despite losing that (it was a go to for many), it's still incredibly handy to just throw out there and watch the delays grow. You don't just throw it on one. You throw it across the whole party as they get within range.

I can do that, it's been requested a few times. So as weird as it sounds, bows, crossbows, and guns all collectively have the best damage in the game. But. It's terrible at armor penetration. You can stack Dex and Strength to brute force it. You can use Breach and Fear, however, to instantly get access to their higher damage at any time. While any unit will benefit from the damage boost, ranged ones will get substantially more from that. For example: In the late game, normal archers do 10-200 damage. But. Breach/Fear, and they boost that to 1200. Double for 2400. Trem/Double for 5000, since the Averse adds 200ish. Up that to 6200 with an Instill. Ranged units are like a river behind a floodgate, it's removing that gate that makes them insane.

Poison is great, but it's risky relying on it to finish things off unless you've cleared all the healers from the field. I do want to run a solo class run with all the classes and see how it goes. Current Valk run is going quite well, though cheating a little by leaving Gildas and Myrdin as white knights mostly due to their ape rt reduction, as I'm focusing more on spear than valks specifically. Being able to be decent at phys, magic, and healing is really strong. I stopped using concentration on them as I tended to almost always have 100% hit rate. I also give them ease instead of boon to strip off negative statuses. Two healing items for big bursts of healing exorcism and blessing is my normal item load. Recruit challenges require having the correct recruit ability. If no humanoids, recruit won't qualify for the challenge. Might have to try a shield bash run sometime. Ninja can use status blow guns with their ninja status spells to apply multiple statuses and are one of my most hated enemies to run into. I found that matching your element on spells is more damage than going off element chasing weaknesses.

The more I hear about the possibilities of some of these classes, the more I feel like MND is maybe the most important stat for a lot of classes. And that motivates me to plot squeezing out a few extra points of it if possible. Which makes me wonder. Does leveling up a character in a particular class influence which stats are likely to upgrade the most? (Beyond the points that you gain or lose anyway when you change class.)

@paranoumenon

Жыл бұрын

Yes, diff classes have diff stats growths. But it won't be apparent until at least mid 20s (unless they are mages). Archer = more DEX/AGI, Berserker = more STR, Knight = more VIT, Cleric = more MND, Wizard = more INT. Melee oriented classes will have more HPs than MPs (except for the Rune Fencer which has balance stats growth between a mage and a warrior). If You prefer stats growths of an All Rounder, Rune Fencer and Warrior are the options for early chapters. The latter can't cast magic (and have lower MPs). There are also extra random 2-5 pts stats bonuses every levelling. I dunno how it works. I think they depend on your combat performance (or LCK). Uniques (except Denam) have more stats bonuses.

Great video. Quick question do you want to level up units in a basic class before changing to another? For example in final fantasy tactics you would level one class to unlock those skills to use in another job. Or does it not matter if they have leveled in other classes?

It doesn't matter in this game (which gives you more freedom), though if you start building a lot of weapon ranks with a certain type and want to keep advancing it, you may want to plan your jump to a new class who can also use it.

I feel like after a certain point the enemies level up with you making your returns severely limited minus skills. I prefer walking into a fight under-leveled and ganking higher level enemies with item buffs. That has always amused me. Addendum- They're on PC...so why don't they just mod the game? I guarantee someone is going to take those caps out.

Awesome. Thanks

best guide u help me a lot❤ thx.

Hey Coffee, two questions: You didn't mention where to find dragoon classmarks, I assume in the wildwood? Also, do you happen to know of skill scavenging is still a thing? Obviously I can just switch a unit to a class and the bulk of skills are just unlocked, but could I still scavenge weapon skill levels or should I just sell all this silver obereth I've saved up?

@CoffeePotato

Feel free to sell the coins, everyone just has their skills, so there's no need to scavenge. Skills will catch up faster the more they are behind. The dragoon marks are available in the wildwood, but I did mention that both routes will see you fighting a dragoon early, which will drop your first 3 marks.

I wonder, maybe Rune Fencers have concentration because it helps with debuffs in weapons? because it seems like without it they don't always trigger on hit. Like my valk hits 2 units with Breach spear both 100% accuracy both were hit only one of them was breached.

Plays well on any flavor of PC. I'd honestly say save a little more and replace the laptop with a Deck, it's the only thing to natively play the whole series and mods at this point.

ninja x2 attack with a dagger +1 simply deletes Casters and if it DOESN'T kill them; the 2x dagger +1 WILL silence them; making just about any caster you attack with it (even runefencers) absolutely useless for as long as the silence lasts. Because of their high movement and jump range they can usually reach that backline quite easily... they're squishy so it's highrisk-high reward but a losing a ninja just so the enemy healer can't heal the boss in your burst phase CAN make a big difference

The text was updated to better explain what it does generally. Previously the confusion was that folks assumed Bane was broken because it was melee only. So now Bane is markee as melee, but Slayer is for everything, including Finishers. So it's just left as Physical.

Sorry I didn't really get the instill effect. 25% element dmg added? Which can trigger status on hit like standard hit? 😮

@CoffeePotato

7 ай бұрын

They don't trigger status, they're a damage bonus that's affected by the relationship of the elements involved, going from something like 15-30% added to the final attack. This isn't too much normally, but used alongside things like Tremendous Double archers, Slayer Dragoons, etc, the numbers can skyrocket.

Oh man, I didn’t even know characters rolled with different affinities for stats. Does it lead to a pretty big difference by max level or is it fairly minor?

@CoffeePotato

It's minor enough to not break a unit, because all stats will be good for something just about anyone can do, but it's a minmax to be aware of.

It was, though they're still solid in TO, they want to play to their stealth background. Dual wield builds still hit extremely well against defense broken targets, and their Evanescence allows them to have a third attack to double down on that finish. While personally I prefer to use them for status arrows, they're an extremely fun unit to play around with in their niche.
