If they aren't Toppling when they should, then it's likely that the Art used for that hasn't recharged. As you level up Arts and decrease their cooldown times, you'll be waiting less for things to happen. Most characters have Topple Arts anyway, so if one character doesn't Topple, chances are another will. Basically, so long as the neccesary Arts are charged, if you Break an enemy, then party members will follow with a Topple. And then another would follow up with a Daze (but Daze Arts don't come in until later so don't worry about that for now). Dont forget they won't topple if an enemy has a deadly spike while toppled, either! Edit: oops, quoted the wrong person! Major fail! Oh well, to late to change it right now.

Ok actually though, what is it about Melia's AI that makes her bad? Shulk's, i get, it's easy for his AI to just waste a Monado Art. But i can't say i've had actually had trouble with Melia's AI. 6 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: Then maybe they shouldn't topple until i break xD Haha fair enough. Well, they will wait early on but if you don't Break right away, then they'll just use their Topple Arts even if they can't Topple. To be fair as well, going for the Break right away is a perfectly valid strategy in any Xenoblade game. Break is the easiest thing to apply, so that's why. 3 minutes ago, lightcosmo said: Dont forget they won't topple if an enemy has a deadly spike while toppled, either! They know not to Topple enemies with Topple-activated Spike but they'll try to Topple the few enemies that are immune to it. Ah well, damage is damage.

I admit I haven't played XC1 in forever, but I remember people online hung her AI like Chuchu. The issue, so it was claimed, was that she'd cast her elementals and then sit there and do nothing, not discharging elementals any (unless you used the concentrate attacks command).

Because i would always issue the "concentrate attacks" command since it's more effective than telling the AI to pick their own targets (this is also why i didn't really have an issue with "concentrate attacks" being the only command in Xenoblade 2) and the only time i'd tell the AI to regroup was when i wanted to apply a buff (usually Monado Enchant or Armor) before a fight. ________________________________________ @Shrimperor word of warning, it seems the most recent patch may have brought in a potentially game breaking bug.

Codename Shrimp Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Man, the fe subreddit has been extra bad lately. Maybe i should just leave it for a while... 6 minutes ago, Armagon said: word of warning, it seems the most recent patch may have brought in a potentially game breaking bug.

Armagon Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 2 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: Did the arts just get deleted... Yep. All of Reyn's Arts minus his Talent Art were sent to the shadow realm. As i've said, i have no idea what causes this and this was most likely introduced in the most recent patch. Since the clip was from New Game+ (only three characters but Arts are mostly maxed out), maybe it has something to do with that but don't take this as truth. I really don't know what causes this. Even the person who posted the clip doesn't seem to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acacia Sgt Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I'd say, despite my earlier comments about AC5's M06, it does have good music. Well, Ace Combat soundtracks hit high most of the time, but still, this one's quite fitting. Has that sense of urgency, specially when you're flying all around the map chasing down the missiles.

I think the AI wants to keep the buffs on the elementals going, and that's why they don't fire them off right away. That'd be my guess anyways.

Armagon Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 @Shrimperor so regarding that game breaking bug from yesterday, it seems the cause has been found So it's pretty specific and you are most likely not going to encounter this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonFlames Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) One thing I forgot to mention in my impressions of Fate Extella Link is that for once, your allies are actually useful. They can do stuff themselves and are really helpful to have around when fighting enemy commanders (as they'll attack with you). This is probably one of my absolute favorite aspects of the game, because so many other Musou games have your allies be complete dead weight, which basically means that you, as the player, have to do everything yourself. I also really like how the game doesn't throw a thousand different mandatory objectives at you, but still manages to create a fairly challenging game that keeps you on your toes. Both of these were what I like to call "Musou Traps" the first Fate Extella fell into. Good on ya, Marvelous! Keep this up and you will have outdone Omega Force at their own game.

null Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) Trying out the Trails series with Trails in the Sky for PSP (would do PC but Mac user and I don't feel like starting up Boot Camp). I've been wanting to find a good RPG to get into and I've heard nothing but positives about the Trails series (Chrono didn't do it for me *shrugs*). Also hope to get some writing done today. I'm thinking Byleth x Lysithea next. @DragonFlames btw, I saw on YouTube that using either Wine/Lutris or Steam Proton can let you play the Trails in the Sky games on Linux. I don't know how it would actually work, but it's just something I saw that might be of some help to you.

I tried wine before, but... results weren't exactly, well, good (still the same issues with black screen etc.). Linux is a fickle beast sometimes. I'll just have to wait for a rerelease of the games. Thanks for looking out for me, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
