S rank bows, heck yeah. Man, I cannot say I went that far before. I assume she was A+ beforehand though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But sniper gives +3 to bow exp and she had the knowledge gem and I danced her every turn so she was getting 18 bow exp per turn. Should I feel bad for grinding like that? Nah, because of her high bow rank and all my tutoring I would have been able to get her up that high anyway. On to S+! The plan for her is bowfaire from sniper + bowfaire from S bows + bow prowess 5 + death blow + bow crit +10 + killer bow+ + hunter’s volley. In conclusion, high weapon ranks good.

Interdimensional Observer Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 The weather is beautiful outside today, summer warmth but without the heat. One day only and I've been enjoying it. In part because high winds blew the power out, and then a brushfire caused an almost immediate second outage. But, all is good now, and I've started playing a Highlands map with the Gauls on a Highlands map in Civilization VI to try out the New Frontier Pass DLC. I will cover the world in the most cultured mines ever and create a manspreading empire of production. A Science Victory is what I'll go for. 7 hours ago, Armagon said: Also is it me or is eight blank Magnus too little? Felt this way in Eternal Wings too. You should eventually receive more Blank Magnus this time, I forget exactly when though. I think there are two additional doling outs of 8 each, for 24 total, although at least one mandatory Quest Magnus you can't ever drop exists (I don't get why its a Magnus then). You should end up with three rows of Blanks, that I do remember well. 7 hours ago, Armagon said: Side note but I'm assuming Origins shows more of the Baten Kaitos world because Hasaleh was not in Eternal Wings. I'm guessing Eternal Wings only showed what was relevant to that game's story. Hassaleh is barely inhabited and has no End Magnus or anything else of value, it'd make sense it wouldn't be visited in Eternal Wings. Some of the few fans of this game would speculate that Hassaleh and the Celestial Alps are somehow related, they look somewhat similar in geography, and have Caplins- those sheep with bat wings. Given there is another minor island not seen in Eternal Wings (which you won't be visiting for a long time), there is at least one other case of "unseen, but existed". 4 hours ago, Armagon said: @Interdimensional Observer so i'm guessing restoring the Magnus Town of Sedna is Origin's version of the Star Map Restoration from Eternal Wings? Correct. In Eternal Wings you had three big quests: Star Map Restoration, Quzman's Genealogy, and the Animal Campaign to Wazn. In Origins, you have a different big trio of: Magnus Town of Sedna, the Coliseum, and Pac-Man. Sedna can't be finished until late into the game, and will require a search for a few immigrants to get one of the Sedna Magnus eventually sorry if that brings back Colony 6 trauma. A few common enemies can drop Sedna Magnus. In Origins, only the last enemy killed has a chance of dropping a Magnus, so you want to save the Sedna culprits for last.: Magma Beast Bar-Mool Spell Shellfish Lanocaulis Are the rewards from Sedna worth it? Not really. But the town does look great, being claymation and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armagon Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 40 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...Wait, wha...? Why would they translate the games to English but only sell them in the places where people generally wouldn't need an English localization? What's the logic behind that? What Acacia said is true but keep in mind the English quality of these "Asian versions" can vary a lot. In the case of SRW, it looks like there's actual effort put into the English translation. Granblue Fantasy Versus also had a fully English version, complete with the voice acting, released in Asian territories a month before the West, which is just weird. More often than not tho, the English translations tend to be either very literal or just translated wrong and you end up getting some hilarious results. Case in point A very grave error, if you ask me. There's a website that just has a whole bunch of translation errors and such documented but i forget the name of it. 14 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: I think this is my new favorite underrated prequels line.

Acacia Sgt Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) This reminds me how the DS port of Chrono Trigger also had an English script in the Japanese version. Except it was seemingly the actual localized script the other versions would get. The NA release was only five days apart, so very likely they used the same one. Other than why put the English script in the Japanese version in the first place. Again, probably for those areas in East Asia that do speak English.

Sooks Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) I watched the Prequels when I was young, my thoughts were that the first one was boring until darth maul happens and *spoilers* bites the dust. I don’t remember much of the second one, but I liked the action-y parts again (assuming plural, there was this one part where they were at an arena or something, so I remember that one). I thought the third one was great because all the Anakin stuff was interesting. I think I was six. Edited March 26, 2021 by Sooks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooks Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) Alright, that’s chapter 15 cleared. The game might be back into lulling me into a false sense of security, that chapter was quite the breeze. Although it would have been very difficult without stride and warp since the boss moves toward the green unit you want to keep alive on the other side of the map. But she spawns very early, followed by enemies that can easily wipe the floor with her and will once they finish off the units that spawn with her. Which makes me wonder if this chapter was designed around such techniques, since there’s no way you can reasonably save her and then go for the boss. And that was only 8 turns! Petra was MVP. I’ve noticed that Ferdinand isn’t really pulling his weight, maybe I should reclass him? But he’s almost at Wyvern lord, so I’ll have him hang in there and see how he does in that class. If he’s still bad, it’s off to paladin for lancefaire with his swift strikes. Well, maybe. It might be a little late for that.
