DodgeDusk Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) Juna: Sledgehammer is dumb as fuck. I think she's an okay character, but after playing the Crossbell games, her inclusion and supposed background with the S.S.S. seems a bit weird. The best way I can describe it is in Chapter 2. I won't go into spoilers, but something happens, a character from the Crossbell games is there, and it feels like that character should have been the focus instead of Juna. Kurt: ToCSIII has some translation errors, and that includes his Brave Order; it implies it cuts delay numbers by 30%, when it's actually 70%. So an action giving 10 delay would instead give 3. This is ridicious. Kurt's better than Juna, imo. Altina: Best school outfit/10. I'm not too keen on her character, but it's an improvement compared to ToCSII. Musse: Rean is going to get fired. Strangely enjoyable character, easily my favourite of the new characters. Ash: Jedi said Ash would be my favourite character from this game. At first, I couldn't see it, but by the end he's definitely my second favourite. Also, Rean is at his best in this game. Keep the glasses on him. EDIT: Gonna shill the SF Falcom Discord server, may as well. If you want to enter, hit me up. Edited January 26, 2020 by DodgeDusk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strullemia Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Anyone watched the Disney cartoon Gargoyles? I started watching it and wow it's so good and for a 2009 cartoon really ahead of its time. It also has a super charismatic antagonist.

MisterIceTeaPeach Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 The Gargoyles I know, are from the mid 90s....... unless they had a remake I have never ever heared from until just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strullemia Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Huh, no you're right. I looked a few days ago at work and it said 2009 somewhere but it seems that site was way off. Which means that it's even more impressive that they made it back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, i remember when i first read about Juna on the Wiki, i thought she simply saw the SSS as her role models. But then i saw a subbed playthrough and her actually knowing them on a personal level is a bit odd. I think if she had shown up in the Crossbell games (in a way similar to Duvalie and her knights) before being made a full-fledged character in Cold Steel 3, it would've gone better. In the grand scheme of things though, it's not that big a deal. It's weird when you think about it but it's pretty easy to just roll with it. 5 hours ago, Rosalina said: TMS question: Can the elite monsters be defeated at once? Game tells me about a Special Performance, but I do not have a clue what it is. Is it the combo attack after hitting an enemy's weakness? Are you talking about the Sessions (idk if it's called something different in other versions)? Cause that's what a Session is. The way a Session triggers is that a character has to hit an enemy's weakness and then if the other party members have a Session Skill that target that weakness, it'll activate. I think. @Interdimensional Observer can probably anwser it better than i can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feed them too much, they go Dragon Mode (and not the good kind, either). What a crappy fate to have. Jesus. I'm very much enjoying myself. The game is awesome so far (reached Chapter 4). I like all the playable characters, the dungeon design is amazing (in my opinion, at least), and the story has already pulled my heartstrings more than once. The thing with Ruruta was shocking. I seriously thought it'd go like "you were ALMOST too late, but you barely made it in time!" like it would be in other games. Not this one. And the scenes after that just sold it even more.

Interdimensional Observer Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 8 hours ago, Rosalina said: Game tells me about a Special Performance, but I do not have a clue what it is. Is it the combo attack after hitting an enemy's weakness? The combo attacks are called Sessions. Special Performances are the command skills that consume SP. For instance, Itsuki and Chrom have Empty Wave, obtained simply by making one new Carnage for him. They're usually quite good, hence their limited usability. All Special Performances cost 1 or 2 SP, and the max you can possess at any time is 3. Your current SP is shown in the upper right corner in blue, with a bar beneath it that fill as you use more skills and for each hit of a Session. Unbuyable items called Claptracks can be used to replenish 1 SP, if you need it for a boss or something. 8 hours ago, Rosalina said: Can the elite monsters be defeated at once? I did take down a group of Savages on my current Lunatic run in Chapter 1, but for the first two chapters, I wouldn't advise it unless you quickly save beforehand. Savages scale with your current level, and I think they get replaced for stronger ones every 10 levels at either '0 or '9, so to make things slightly more manageable, wait until ~'8 before fighting them if you want. Savages become much easier with certain Special Performances later. Kiria's Pastel Power and Eleonora's Mass Destruction (with a Skl-boosting accessory to up her chances of fatal damage) are the best ones for Savages. If you don't want to fight a Savage, the game will always let one of your characters act before any of the Savages do. Enemies once in while drop Smoke Machines, which are later buyable, these are 100% certain to escape consumables, carry some in case you bump into a Savage and use one on your mercy turn. The mercy turn can randomly go to anyone, but if you want to fight a Savage encounter and are relying on a certain Special Performance to win, keep that character in the Sub-Cast, not the active trio. That way, on the 2/3rds chance someone not Itsuki is chosen, you can swap them in, which doesn't waste an action. Savages always reward you with Detritus, which you can later trade for permanent stat-boosting Incenses. Trading 100 Detritus will lead you to then have to fight a little battle which will let you Radiant Unity Locktouch for Itsuki, making Treasure Keys no longer needed for certain chests and giving an increase to enemy drop rates. The pay-to-win grinding DLC for the Wii U version is already in TMS Encore for free (check this "Hall of Aspirations" I think), and is an easier way to accrue Detritus than Savages. 3 hours ago, Armagon said: The way a Session triggers is that a character has to hit an enemy's weakness and then if the other party members have a Session Skill that target that weakness, it'll activate. I think. @Interdimensional Observer can probably anwser it better than i can. Only the Command Skill that triggers the Session must hit a weakness, nothing else must. However, if a Session Skill is Nulled, Absorbed, or Repelled, or on the very rare chance of a miss, the Session will terminate there. The game will never trigger a Session that is terminated prematurely due to Nu/Ab/Rp unless it is the only way to continue it from the prior hit. Never teach anyone the Passive called Pierce though, they didn't fix the glitch around it. It's supposed to make physical attacks ignore Resistance and deal normal damage, but in Sessions the game wrongly thinks it works against Nu/Ab/Rp too, which it doesn't, resulting in Sessions getting terminated early. Penetrate, a stronger version of Pierce which is an endgame Passive for Touma, works totally fine and won't ruin Sessions though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
