I didn't know that she only heals herself fully if you either buff yourself or debuff her 4 times, so the battle was endless while one of my demons used nothing but Farg Breaker.

why not make the definitive /v/ideogame guide. All games included, and no fixes would be PM'd. It could even listen to fellow anon's problem and anyone who knows how to get around said problem could converse with the anon, ensuring no answer is unanswered
>>344603232

No, the argument is, the game's been out for a while. You should recognize that people are going to talk about it using unmarked spoilers because the majority of people who are going to play it have played it. If you haven't played it, and you're interested in playing without spoilers, stay the fuck away from open discussions about that game. In fact, there are plenty of people on the internet who enjoy spoiling things well before open spoilers are dubbed appropriate by consensus specifically so they can ruin it for people, so even if you're too autistic to understand unspoken rules about open spoilers, you should still recognize that going into threads about even relatively new games is a bad idea if you care a lot about spoilers.
This is common sense, but it doesn't stop morons from becoming indignant when they inevitably ruin it for themselves.

Yes, that's why she is wearing the gloves, to avoid paper cuts.
>>344597207
thats a very humbling experience...as if having to look up a guide isnt humbling enough

if you've never been super stuck in a video game before, you dont play enough video games
>>344607174
this is me, thats why i suck at JRPGs, because I get bored of killing random mobs and just start skipping them till I'm super underleveled.
>defeat a boss with guide

>>344604109
I'll hold on to that dream.
Some day, anon. Some day.
>>344610116
Any RPG worth a shit throws the appropriate number of encounters at you so that you don't need to grind in order to progress unless you're a baddie.
>>344607174
What is Persona.

It's no one's fault but your own if you have a plot spoiled for you online. No exceptions.

>Wow, Garuda is a bullshit boss, that lightning move kills everyone at once
>Let's check a guide

I think I'm playing FF3 wrong
In the end, the answer was grind everyone as Dragoons and grind enough gil to buy the wind lances. He's weak to wind and if you're in the air lightning can't hit you :^)

Consider yourself lucky you can't sit and grind yourself silly.
