Coin Theory


Recommended Posts

Greetings Serenes Forest

I've been looking around the forums for quite some time, but now I decided to join!

I have a hunch regarding a hidden use of coins, not sure if this has been discussed before, but here it is.

In chapter 2-final, there is a priest that matches the thunder affinity that is holding a coin... the oddity arises when I try to kill it, you see, the killing hit -misses- every playthrough I've done, it happens all the time.

In my last run, I noticed that after evading the killing blow, the coin vanishes from its inventory!

So my question is, could it be it has a hidden effect related to the map's affinity bonus, or could it be a hidden effect of all coins?

Your thoughts?

If this works, then it would change drafts quite a bit.

Correct, I've searched all of Serenes forest, and to my knowledge, the wiki doesn't tell you what does the affinity bonus do, so maybe this is the bonus?

I would like to try to test out my theory, but without a camera to record it, it would just be my word for it, if anyone is interested in trying out my theory, please do so.

And if this does work, it wouldn't work in hard/maniac since the affinity bonus (the glowing) is disabled there, so it would only work in easy/normal.

I believe Affinity give a 5 % Hit/Avo/Crit/Evd boost or one of those at least. Not sure. But anyway. I'll record it on a playthrough im doing with neasala as soon as i'm at 4-P. At 3-4 now. Playing leisurely though.

I thought I had a Part 2 Endgame save, but it seems not.

However, I did load Shinon with 5 Coins in Part 3 Chapter 7 (Thunder map) and Shinon died within the first few hits after reaching fatally low HP. So if this glitch does work, it doesn't seem to benefit playable characters or doesn't always work.

Considering I doubt many people put Coins on any unit, including those expected to die, if this is real and not just a glitch, the affinity probably has nothing to do with it and was just coincidence.
