If i had place in my sig i would've sig'd it haha

You can put it under a spoiler tag and it won't exceed the sig limits.

i freaking finish games 3 times as fast thanks to it.

Meanwhile, i've seen a combined total of 13* Godzilla and King Kong movies in the span of like two weeks, something i wouldn't have done under ordinary circumstances.

*I say 13 but i saw Godzilla 2014 and King of the Monsters before i embarked on this marathon, so in actuality, i've seen a combined total of 11 Godzilla and King Kong films.

Here's one for the Xenoblade fans:

Accents British, girls are hot
Wacky furballs, though, are not
Because Nopon are the bestest thing!
Nothing can stand up to their bling!
Make nouns end with -pon I will petition!
To spread the love, it is my mission!

Haha.

Btw, putting "Nopon" and "bestest" in the same line was genius because, i'm not sure if you knew but that's an actual meme among the Xenoblade community.

I'd post the full source but it's kinda spoilery for Xenoblade 1 so you just get this for now.

Nice! XD
I actually had no idea that it was already a meme. I added the "-est" onto "best" to make the line flow better when read and to add some humor to it.

Is there even any way to cure it?

nope

Though it is hilarious if you yourself get that bonus in CS3. That 20,000+ HP regular enemy that would have taken long to bring down with regular attacks because you want to save CP and EP for the boss? Gone in one simple strike!

No exp though, so in the end it benefits the enemy much more than the players

not to mention most enemies resist it anyway.

The image(s) can't exceed a certain size and the signature can't be bigger than seven lines but using a spoiler tag cheats that. 

Like, if you open the spoiler tag on my sig, my full sig is definitely not seven lines.

That explains why I got less EXP when I had a "Vanish" bonus in battle and it worked. Huh. Good to know.
Initially, I just chalked it up to CS3 being very stingy with EXP gains.

Nope. You just have to wait until it wears off.

And chances are the battle will already be over by the time it does wear off.

And if it doesn't, then the character who was Vanished just loses all their EP. And recovering EP is a lot harder than HP or CP as mentioned before, because i'm pretty sure there aren't EP recovery items avaliable to buy.

So you can't recover from Vanish and you can't resist it either. It is the worst status effect in the series. Especially in Sky 3rd where the whole game is one giant "higher dungeon".

there are, but they are pretty damn expensive in comparison.

Not to mention newer games nerfed EP recovery by not healing it at Lvlup

Yikes.
I always dread enemies getting the deathblow or vanish bonuses in areas "where the higher elements dwell". Having that sense of dread for the entire game is not something I would want.
Though it does give you more opportunities to find ways to counteract it or use it to your benefit somehow, so it doesn't take you by surprise as much. Then again, counteracting enemies getting Vanish can only be either them squandering the bonus by starting to cast or them missing, the latter of which only happens if they happen to conveniently attack your dodgetank.

Well thankfully, Deathblow and Vanish bonuses don't show up in boss fights. 

Just now, Shrimperor said:

tbf though, Sky3rd gives you alot of resistance items, including vanish iirc

If Vanish could be resisted in Sky 3rd, i really wish i knew that before.

CS3 has accessories that prevent Deathblow and Vanish, too, come to think of it.

But i do remember getting an item for Vanish somewhere in Sky3rd lol

and well, 60€ is a bit much imo

Somehow I thought you already had the game. Must have remembered wrong, sorry!
If you feel like the 60€ price tag is too much for you, I'd just wait for a price drop. It's a third party game and a pretty niche one at that, so there's always a good chance of it going on sale soon enough.

Maybe see if eBay or something has it for cheaper.

Alternatively, you could get Xenoblade Chronicles 2 or (Torna ~ The Golden Country if you want something cheaper) for the Nintendo Switch no, I'm not shilling.

My next switch haul is in may or June, and Xenoblade is something i definetly want to get (although i am planning on remake first)

How dare you want to spread the love for a game you enjoy?!? You monster!

And while we're on the subject of shilling, here's a preliminary playable character ranking for Mary Skelter:
Alice > Cinderella > Red Riding Hood > Sleeping Beauty > Snow White > Kaguya > Thumbelina > Jack

I forgot an "a". How?

Oh, I thought you had a PS4.

Yeah, I doubt the PC version is going on sale right now since it came out like two weeks ago.

Mwahaha! It's all part of the master plan!

Oh that's not good. If it comes to it, hopefully you can get it repaired. I think Nintendo still offers to repair Wii U systems, though with the current global situation going on, not sure if it can be done as quickly or even done at all.

Repair costs are probably in the range of $100+, if the price for fixing one Wii U Gamepad control stick is anything to go by. Not practically worth it if all I TBH do is a second XCX run and maybe a few hours of Mario Kart/Party/Wii Sports with the family. Just sell it all if happens and move on in life and replace XC1 with XC1DE.

And the repair services in North America are presently shut down due to COVID. I saw on article on that b/c no Joy Con stick repairs for the time being.

 

I saw someone made an undub patch for Baten Kaitos EWatLO a few years ago. Wonderful.
