So I seem to be unable to import custom portraits, even when I try to reupload the original portraits in those slots. Any ideas?

I am adjusting the image type accordingly, I run the game on administrator and made sure I have permission to read / write all files in the game folder. I don't know if I'm missing something obvious or not. You just drop the image folders into the USERDATA folder right?

A shit ton
>What's the difficulty compared to say, Etrian Odyssey IV?
>>340829556

>>340831661
Yes, though try playing in beginner mode
>>
>>340831574
It does require a significant amount of grinding, there's no real shortcuts like easily repeatable bosses of EO3/4.
The game isn't really all that difficult, it just forces you to compensate for it's gimmicks a lot, which makes it kind of boring.
After a point, tons of bosses will start spamming Instant Death moves over and over, and to account for that you have to use a specific gimmick ability to block against it every couple of turns. There are like 20+ other gimmick abilities, but since all the bosses love spamming the OHKO BS, your only real choice is to protect against it instead.

The class change system is ok, but there is very little variety in classes to begin with once you're about 4 classes deep, because you'll have all the "core" abilities of each good class on your damage chars and mage chars respectively.

tl:dr, play EO instead
>>
>>340831452
Buffs and debuffs mainly, attack magic is decent if you abuse elemental weaknesses and gets better after you get double and triple cast.

But generally yeah, they are worse than clerics but also mandatory because of magic weapon, the force buffs are also nice.

>>340831574
If you want to use class changing optimally then there's grinding, how much depends on how much min/max autism you have.
Also main source of good equipment is grinding ambush spots.

EO IV is baby mode as far as dungeon crawlers go so this is obviously harder.
>>
>>340831887
Very hard, even in beginner mode you can get insta-gibbed. Is not the hardest Dungeon CRAWLER around, but is not very beginner friendly either (No game in the genre is to be honest, people keep coming thinking this is fucking final fantasy and get mad when they learn they have to pace themselves in the dungeons and not just go at them in one gofuckingkidsthesedaysiswear)

Is this game any good?

The permadeath is a bit of a turn off. I don't want to idle around waiting for my healer to gain more life points or whatever so I don't lose them forever

I also don't want to level up a brand new character when someone dies forever, or to make replacements for when someone is injured.

So is this game just a giant pain or is there something to alleviate this?

Careful planning and knowing when to head back to town will save you from pretty well ever losing a party member. The game gives you a 100% effective escape ability very near to the beginning that is the only use of your Morale gauge at the start. You also have items with the same effect that aren't terribly difficult to get hold of.

Paying close attention to enemy levels and avoiding situations where you will be Ambushed likewise greatly increase your odds of never getting in over your head. When exploring a new area with fresh Lineage Types to worry about, always be aware of the conditions for encountering each and simply escape from them if you need to. I would always save right before attempting to fight a Lineage type on purpose and then head into a dungeon expressly for the purpose of finding and fighting them so I wouldn't lose any progress if things went deep south.

I put in fifty hours on the Vita and never lost anybody, running a crew entirely of 1 LP units with about 18-20 bonus points on creation. That helps early in the game, but isn't a dealbreaker since good use of equipment is especially important.

>that tiny Yuel

>>340832841

You can have up to 16 characters at one time, the ones you aren't using stay at Base and can passively gain exp (thus level) and also bring in passive income. Every time you 'register' a new character it's level is something like half your MC, so you aren't always creating a level 1. There are also items you can buy (though limited) that restore life points/revive so you don't have to wait around if you don't want to.
>>
>>340832996
not to be rude but I believe you need to resize some characters, anon
>>
>>340832841
Newly made characters get leveled up to half the MC's total level. It is advised you make all your replacements at the beginning so they get passive exp. Even when benched, they'll soon catch up to your active party's level.

To be honest you sounds kind of casual for this game, no offense. Don't think you'll enjoy it if such a mechanic bothers your so much
>>
>>340833110

Can you escape from Lineage types? The only time I tried was against the Archer guy at vot ruined, and It kept saying he disrupted it. Might be because that one is a static Red Angry Face that you walk into but it's not like you can gauge what the fuck it's going to be without going in.

>>340833238
Yeah, maybe. Or rather, it's more like I just don't have the time to grind for ages to get anywhere anymore. I've almost finished law school and need to prepare to pass the Bar and find a job. It's depressing but I'm kinda too busy for JRPGs now. I've been playing casual games more since they usually give you everything quickly and don't take so long to get through or make progress.

>>340833291

Right, if you walk into a Scripted Encounter, you cannot escape. The Red Skulls on the map are Scripted Boss Fights, essentially. If you don't think you're ready for those, do not walk into them. They're one of the exceptions to being able to retreat.

If you encounter a Lineage type any other way, aside from during a cutscene which has the same rule apply, they can be escaped from, such as Lineage types who appear in an enemy party while you're ambushing. You can simply choose not to fight them in the first place and Retreat from the Ambush screen itself before even engaging.

I never really had trouble in Sea or Ice. Divinities can really help out in those dungeons, especially Black Wall to reduce damage to the party due to the lack of Iron Defense in Ice.

To help deal with the Chimera, use Dragon Fist if you have it. The Hit/Avoid penalty it inflicts is persistent for the battle, and stacks. If you obliterate the Chimera's accuracy, you'll have nothing left to fear. Spamming Confine if you have a Ranger along with Dragon Fist will tank the bastards Hit rating in no time and it will turn into a one-sided battle for you.
>>
>>340833621
Theorically, yes. Practically, not so much. Depends on what you're building. If you're dipping into ninja for the dodge skills, there is no point going beyond 15. Likewise, say you're going into fighter for just Invincible Heart, why would you grind beyond 13?

I'm not even taking into account that you're limited to the amount of skills you can have because of skill slots, so getting every skill is moot
>>
>>340833982
Nah it's actually the easiest dungeon to grind imo. Just activate healing and you're good.
>>
>>340833621
No really. It would be extremely slow to level up that way and you'll lose on bonus HP/MP you get from leveling up again not to mention some cross skills can be extremely useful.
That's why on lower levels you'd want to switch at 13 to get some skill slots for more options early on. Catching up from level 6 to 13 again doesn't take that long. I did it twice already.

It does, but level also factors into Hit/Avoid calculations. Based on your agility, a character cannot have their Hit and Avoid exceed certain values unless gear bonuses increase it, which work independent of the level restriction.

In order to hit Avoid/Hit caps for race and class, your Agility needs to be at a certain value as well as your level. Meanwhile, a higher level without the appropriate Agility will see a character have much less Avoid/Hit than one who does. Strength also factors into Hit, like D&D.

Is the story any good, dungeon crawling is all well and nice, but you gotta have something intriguing to chase after for it to be really addicting
>>
>>340835174

The game presents a pretty healthy challenge, and rewards careful skill use/party management as opposed to trying to retard-roll your way through everything. At the near-end point where I was in Vita, there was an extraordinary difference between me trying to auto-pilot a fight I figured was negligible and actually taking command of it and exercising my skills, which would end it in a single turn as opposed to four turns where a few party members would eat 25% of their health in pointless damage.

The game has a few methods for greatly speeding up grind, such as Butterfly Nests hidden in a few dungeons. Also reducing the number of party members and intentionally farming enemies who call up reinforcements. The EXP won't be split, but passive members in reserve will still benefit from a % of it, meaning they're not completely missing out. That reduces the overall grind, besides, and reserve members will bring in cash while they're not in use when you check back into the Base, besides.

It is impossible to make a single character do everything, thanks to the 8 Skill Slot limit. A character can only equip 8 skills from a class they are presently not using, and 16 skills in NG+ is the new limit. That means you still need to plan proper roles for each character. It avoids the old Wizardry meme of all human super aryan parties who could do everything.

My main 6 are portraits that match the artstyle and are already mostly from it. These are the guys I mostly leave on my bench.

In my gameplay, all my characters have 15 or more VIT.
I'm gonna recommend a bump or two there, just to not die to the first Double Fire Blast you meet.

This game is pretty fun, but waiting X days for team members to revive while grinding a B team is boring as shit. At least I don't have to do it that much at least. Only really do it when I get a rare item I want to keep.

Is there any easy way to advance time other than just fucking around in a dungeon while spamming battles with the instant turn finish?

I've worn anime shirts in public, not a big deal. One of the few things about living in a shithole is that no one cares what you're wearing as long as you're wearing something.

it's not like they're going to sexor me, give me a job, hug me, or tell me a compliment if I'm wearing a non anime t-shirt or I don't smell bad, fuck everyone wear what you want, smell how you like, no one is giving you anything so you don't need to appeal to them anyways.

the race is just to adjust the basic stats you begin with, nothing else

Can you literally only get super high rolls on bonus points if you go age 60+?

I've done hundreds of re-rolls for lower age ranges, and the absolute max I ever get is 3 over the minimum. IE min 5, the most I've seen is +8. Meanwhile for 60+ it's not that uncommon to see rolls of 5+ over minimum, though I haven't seen anywhere near the touted +30 bonus point cap.

I'm busy finishing Ray Gigant before I play this game. It's pretty solid, plot is corny, but the setting and Gigant designs are pretty neat. Somewhat disappointed in dungeons and that the game feels kinda easy.

Is SoSC more challenging? Better designed dungeons? I really dig the art style already so far.

Keep Spirit & Black Wall up. Kill the rabbit first it has very low hp.

as a Knight I should go full VIT?

or too much become useless at some point?

>>340842540
I've read that it can supposedly go as high as +30, in the JP version, but I'm not sure if that's possible in the NA version. Highest I've personally seen is +9, got a 22 on a 10+3 (Fortunate) character. I did the same thing you did there.

I'm thinking they had to have adjusted the chances or something. Or maybe they're just so damned low that neither of us has the patience to roll for literally hours.

I'm doing this. Currently at the 3rd stage.
Works pretty well.
My dmg dealers can all hide if needed and assassinate letting the knight tank everything and they all have infinite range.
Points wise I still use them as the main starting role only supplementing them with the subclasses and not changing my entire playstyle to fit their current class.
Even though my cleric is technically a wizard now he still only heals because he has 30 PIE.

You can level up each stat only 20 points beyond it's starting value. Then again in NG+. So age only affects your initial cap and not how many points you get overall unless by max out you mean get 99 which I don't think is possible at age 10.

I think it only raises it to +30 of initial stat in NG+.
So 30 and 40 if you have a base of 10.

>>340845137
I see. That means around 40 max stats (for base 10) at NG+. How would you even enable max 99? By doing NG+ over and over again?

Don't worry.
Like another anon said, there's a lineage that spawns at the fourth turn of every ambush in the Ice Palace.

Ghost town shouldn't be too hard to be honest, Holy weapon + Slash/rush should do a quick work.
Unless you're facing a big group of lvl 34/35 skellies.

Finally managed to take down this fucker.
Had to retry until he didn't have two rows of enemies with him or didn't summon 2 knights on turn 3 or didn't fucking randomly crit my tank from 800 to 0 MC as knight was a mistake.
Seems like avoid stacking is everything in this game.

If you started with 5BP you can only reach like 15 or something. Getting 9/10 BP is fine. Optimal characters are 1LP, but if you're just starting out is not worth the stress.

Which makes you wonder if it doesn't contradict itself when people have to bench characters for hundreds of battles to heal their lost LP back.
>>
>>340856852
I wish I kinda understood the implication of LP earlier.
I died very early in the game and couldn't be bothered to waste 6 days to recover. So now I pretty much reload the entire dungeon if someone on my team gets fucked up which leads to a lot of going back and forth to save after you manage to get a good piece of gear.
