Chiki Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Are the only differences more exp and bexp? Any boss or enemy differences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Bosses seem to be the same, from the website - can't say as to enemies or deployment differences. I'll say this much, though - there's a bug somewhere in which some Easy enemies (I think especially near endgame) actually have Maniac Mode stats and maybe skills - the hardest mode available only in the Japanese disc for whatever reason.

Hawk King Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Im pretty sure there are fewer enemies and the enemies are weaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I distinctively remember some abnormally tougher enemies near the end too. Like the dragon Laguz. As Parrhesia mentioned, it's likely a bug because Easy replaced the old Maniac and some data probably got left behind. Of course, they're still fairly easy with all the exp you get, but it's just funny when you notice these guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightBow Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) For my part, I remember that enemies always seemed suspiciously more powerful then the allies recruited in the same chapter. Back then, I did have the thought that maybe they just used Maniac mode, supercharged the exp gain and called it a day. Do we have enemy data of the easy and maniac difficulties anywhere?

Loki Laufeyson Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 For my part, I remember that enemies always seemed suspiciously more powerful then the allies recruited in the same chapter. Back then, I did have the thought that maybe they just used Maniac mode, supercharged the exp gain and called it a day. Do we have enemy data of the easy and maniac difficulties anywhere? I thought so too but i dont think thats the case. I think they kept the same enemy deployment of Normal and in some cases, the amount of reinforcements the same as Normal. But some enemies are all blitzkrieg. I dunno, it looked like Maniac had higher enemy density. As for topic: Theres not much of a difference outside of that occasional bizarro Maniac stat thing. Exp gain is nearly doubled on Easy. I believe BEXP is also given more of a push. The only real difference between the two modes you will notice outright is that your guys will be promoting far sooner in Easy, and by the Tower of Gritnea chapter, you may see all your active team at level 20.

Chiki Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Ok, thanks. Does anyone know for sure if there's less enemies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Bear Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Ok, thanks. Does anyone know for sure if there's less enemies I know for sure there are more reinforcements in normal but otherwise I'm not entirely sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krad Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 There's another difference that hasn't been mentioned so far, and as far as I know only happens in EM Chapter 4. If you load a save from Chapter 4 normally (clear Chapter 3 save), you get the following enemies. However, if you save in the Chapter 4 prep screen, reset, and restart the chapter, you get these enemies. I'm not sure what causes this exactly, but I'd assume it's some sort of remaining data from MM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordling Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Easy is barely a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterIceTeaPeach Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 The only one difference is, that you got more experience on easy mode. But I am pretty sure, that the number and stats of the enemies and boss stats are the same like on normal mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViewtifulBo Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 With easy mode, you gain a substancial amount more of exp, practically double compared to normal. You also get a lot more bonus exp but I never really used it much. Besides the enemy raven reienforcements in chapters 12 and 13 and some of Duke Tanas's reinforcements in the Serenes Forest gauntlet parts and endgame, not many compared to normal mode. Beware of one thing though, if you have the North American copy of Path of Radiance and/or Radiant Dawn you cannot transfer your easy mode save to Radiant Dawn. Hope this helps!
