And wtf he absolutely destroys me after half HP... Below half-HP? If you see a 💢 next to their name/HP bar, you are aware they've been Enraged, right? Two options for you then.: Load up on Orbs and prepare for a Chain Attack to try to eradicate it in one fell swoop as soon as it Enrages. Bring Corvin, use his level 2 Special. It may take two tries, but he can dispel Enrage and it shouldn't ever be reapplied.

It feels like he got another 20 levels on him or something xD 3 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Load up on Orbs and prepare for a Chain Attack to try to eradicate it in one fell swoop I did a 5 Orb full burst....

Codename Shrimp Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Also Omega Poppi is cool, stronk and looks like an angelic version of Iris Heart She can start a combo chain pretty darn fast! Break (QTPI) -> Topple (AI) -> Launch (QTPI) -(switch)-> Smash (QTP) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also one of the very few UMs with a deadly spike effect once it Enrages. What I like to do is get a bunch of Orbs on it before it hits half health, activate Pneuma and then go to town. 9 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: Also Omega Poppi is cool, stronk and looks like an angelic version of Iris Heart She can start a combo chain pretty darn fast! Break (QTPI) -> Topple (AI) -> Launch (QTPI) -(switch)-> Smash (QTP) Yes, Tora is very adept at Driver Combos. He actually gets the best Break Art in the game with Poppi QTPi. It hits three times, with each time having a chance to inflict Break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to give him many points for being refreshing, you don't find a whole lot of JRPG protagonists like him. He ranks 1st among video game Yuris. I like him because the way he reacts to alot of situations feels so human to me. Like, alot of people would feel the way he does, its normal! And in spite of most people hating "nice guys" he is a nice guy and is still very deep in other ways. Like the way he "handles" things or people he doesnt like would be a way alot of people would feel! For clarity: he has a "cool" image, sure, but i can appreciate his nice guy side as well. Also, you thought the story wasnt great? Edited February 5, 2021 by lightcosmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightcosmo Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Continuation on my opinion of Yuri: The way he feels for his allies is very heart warming at alot of points as well. Like when the Don dies and Karol is down, or when Estelle "heals" the Entelexia. All his reactions (save him slashing his own arm) feel human to me. He also likes to joke around and have fun like normal friends would. His rivalry with Flynn feels like it isnt extremely forced or anything. They believe in different things, Yuri believes the laws wont help anyone fast enough and Flynn believes you need them, which in turn makes them clash. And humanly, anyone would understand how Yuri sees things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine joining an army and the first you see is your leader grabbing 45k off the war chest so he can give it to some shady-looking guy in exchange for a tapestry that he hangs over his bed. And then he buys a bigger bed that almost completely covers the tapestry because he doesn't even care. And then he refuses to pay you, because you're not a mercenary and apparently regular soldiers are supposed to live on glory and honor. How does nobody ever defect...?

Isn't it said they have a payroll for the non-mercs? That being said, I'm also pretty sure they're paid less for the privilege of glory and honour.

Interdimensional Observer Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 1 hour ago, lightcosmo said: Also, you thought the story wasnt great? Guilds vs. Empire theme promising, working within flawed institutions (Flynn) vs. working outside them (Yuri) theme promising. Both conflicts get sidelined for weak villains and beings whose names are a mouthful and which have been done to death in Tales already. Why? Vesperia's plot is better than Graces, which also had a promising premise that floundered in a silent explosion. But Symphonia, Xillia, and Abyss all have better stories to me. Phantasia is so old so it's bad narratively, and ToS2... well... the cringe moments get in the way. I've haven't played anything else. Yuri is the savior of this shoddy story, he alone lifts it from complete mediocrity. Always Wrong Flynn can't do it, Cliched Special Princess Estelle can't do it, nor the good Judith, certainly not ehhh Raven, or Karol or Rita. Repede is a good boy and is not obliged to do anything else. And for Patty, endless nautical and fishy language stinks after three weeks of playing ToV. Now if only Yuri could command a space battleship. 1 hour ago, Dayni said: Hector: "HEY! No using that Seraph Robe! "But I need it to not die-" "NO EXCUSES! We need to keep it for..... for reasons, yes!" Mocking Rankings and the Funds rank specifically I see. I'm not sure how "didn't spend a lot of money and solid assets they had" gets a tactician acclaim, as Mark's variable ending implies. War is inherently wasteful of big gobs of money if rich pillage and conquests are not in the end results. Streamlining war finances and logistics is good true, but I'm not sure if making do without using an Angelic Robe you have already is actually being inventive, or just miserly stupid.

Lightcosmo Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Huh, I actually liked most of the cast, even if they are kinda in "stereotypes" per se. But I respect your views on it, we have different tastes after all! And as extra brownie points, imo Yuri has THE most badass Mystic Art to ever exist. No equals whatsoever.
