Dr. Silent Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 ^Off-topic but are you the guy who wrote that Maniac Mode guide (annd an RD one too, I think) that's on a website called SuperCheats? I remember reading that and thinking "fuck, I need to play this!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatgamecat Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) Yes that's the guide I just linked to.Titania is good in Mania mode, but I wasn't doing an LTC run. Edited October 11, 2013 by mjemirzian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 I'd promote Mist for sure. I don't like Mist, to be honest. And judging by the amount of BEXP I'll get...I don't think it'll be enough to go around my other units- Unless there's another method, of course. I heard she can do things with the Rescue staff (haven't checked, but does that thing even exist in this game?) Well you haven't really given us many updates since the first, so... :P You're right, I think I'll have more updates once I go through Ch 6. It's really a pain. I'd like to see more screenshots. Maybe 2-3 instead of 1. Not a bad idea. But anything specific? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZemZem Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 How about screenshots of your units, and maybe some chapters that changed drastically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatgamecat Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I'd like to see screenshots of important situations during the scenario (with units moving or about to move somewhere, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiki Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Rescue Mist is only truly necessary in Chapter 28 for a 2 turn, but I was suggesting promoting her for healing so you can have an easier time. She's really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatgamecat Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I found Mist pretty useful on the BK duel and final fight against Ashnard. You might be relying on some luck to survive otherwise on Mania mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RNG Princess Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 (edited) One day i'll play MM ^^'. Is it harder than RD's hard mode? Edited November 24, 2012 by Maiden_of_Emblem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Silent Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 ^HM in Radiant Dawn is the equivalent of MM in the Japanese version, so I'd guess they should be pretty similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciarre Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Good luck, Soul ;P I think this on its own is more than enjoyable enough, though I agree with more screenshots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkhead Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) ok guys updates 8] Chapter 6 So yeah, this is Ch 6: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hsO7Xq717c Fuck this chapter. I spent tons of time restarting this to get the 5-turn strategy I wanted to achieve, and it was hard when I had to look after Boyd, Soren, Rhys and Ike from not dying. My first strategy was to have Titania and Oscar Rescue-Drop Ike close to the boss. But after trying many, many times, and even after spending an Angelic Robe on Ike, it always ended up in this: In the end, I realized all I had to do was a variation from the first two strategies (both had Titania and Oscar go through either side of the map but to the same end) was to have Oscar Rescue Ike all to the very end until Titania could just take out the boss and have Oscar Escape with Ike: Oscar being a bro and taking hits for his friends Titania needs two Str procs from base to cleanly 1RKO the boss with a Steel Axe. She's right there. So yeah, after careful placement reguarding Oscar, it was kind of easy in the end. Boyd, Soren and Rhys stayed at the forest to the North and took out a few enemies up there. It seems I lost the images for those, but I did struggle having them survive a few times. Unit Level HP Str Mag Skl Spd Lck Def Res Support Ike 5.39 22 7 2 9 9 8 7 2 Titania 3.94 35 13 4 14 15 12 12 8 Soren 4.74 20 1 8 9 8 6 3 8 Oscar 6.86 27 8 2 6 9 6 10 2 Boyd 5.88 32 10 0 5 9 5 8 2 5 turns. Note: Fuck. This. Shit Chapter 7 This chapter, to be honest, was alot easier than I remember. I literally got this one on my very first try, but since I wasn't convinced with my turncount (9 Turns), I restarted it and also took a few snapshots. Knights. Knights everywhere. These bastards actually costs me turns after I was done with my Hammer uses with Titania, and besides her, only Soren and Gatrie did considerable damage. So the strategy was, Titania took on the West side and ascended all up to the little chest room and up to the boss. Ike, Soren and Mia stayed at the other little room and handled the enemies there. Boyd stayed at the East corner hall and Oscar went up the North-Eastern hall and killed the enemy Thieves. Shinon and Gatrie assisted Titania with the Knights up at the North, among with other enemies. You know, this is kind of irrelevant, but I just can't get over how badass Greil looks in that one scene. Don't you think so? Unit Level HP Str Mag Skl Spd Lck Def Res Support Ike 6.68 23 8 3 9 10 9 7 2 Titania 5.30 37 15 5 15 17 14 12 9 Soren 5.94 20 1 9 9 9 7 3 9 Oscar 8.48 29 8 2 8 10 6 11 3 Boyd 6.64 33 11 0 5 10 5 8 2 Mia 6.92 21 7 0 10 13 6 7 2 Note: I didn't have much trouble with the increased enemy quantatity, as not many of them bore 2-range and Titania 1RKO'd most of them barring the Knights (which she needed a Hammer for, anyway). 7 turns. Chapter 8 Preparations screen I buy the weapons the team needs, but I try to use the money sparingly at it's very scarce. I couldn't even afford to sell the Pole Axe because I knew I'd need it later on. BEXP Ike, Soren, Boyd and Mia to lvl 7. Supports Ike x Oscar C ------ So yeah, here we have another Defend chapter. Not very interesting, in my opinion. Having to sit here 8 turns while I turtle my way with my units and CEXP...not very cool. Titania guarded the main entrance at first and later left the left-overs for Soren and Boyd so they could later take over her job at the front. Boyd took the West entrance at first, then switched places with Titania. Oscar guarded the East entrance for 8 turns. Ike killed like 3-left overs and Mia only dodged about 3 hits in these 8 turns. Oscar being a bro again and fighting for his friends. That's what he did for all those 8 turns. You can tell the boss is too scared to get close to Boyd. Just look at him there at the corner. Titania never ceases to impress. Please keep being awesome. Stop sucking, Ike. Could you at least try to be better than Mia? Unit Level HP Str Mag Skl Spd Lck Def Res Support Ike 8.03 24 8 3 10 10 9 7 3 C Oscar Titania 6.22 38 15 6 16 18 15 12 10 Soren 8.32 22 1 10 10 11 8 3 11 Oscar 10.66 30 10 2 10 11 7 12 3 C Ike Boyd 8.36 35 13 0 7 10 6 8 3 Mia 7.03 22 8 0 11 14 7 7 2 8 turns.

Integrity Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 You know, this is kind of irrelevant, but I just can't get over how badass Greil looks in that one scene. Don't you think so? I love how his name is UNKNOWN and the picture is so fucking obviously Greil and the voice is probably also so fucking obviously Greil. hi soul i actually read and like this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiki Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Your turn counts are pretty good. Makes me want to try.. Don't even want to imagine how tedious it is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatgamecat Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Nice. Are you going to try it in fixed growths mode later? In my experience that made the run more difficult. I might try to do a ltc run at some point.. but it's been about 7-8 years since I touched PoR at all. I'd basically be starting from scratch.
