How do I get kingdom chivalry? I need it to advance past a locked door, it says I can force it open but I always fail.
What gives?
Just started this game a few hours ago. It's pretty damn comfy, plus the animal girls with fat tits are real nice to look at when things are slow. Navigating this shit with a keyboard is silly when it's like "Press 6" or Press 2".
>>340820494

>>340820679
You can go and rebind keys so that 1 uses the 1 button and so on. You can play entirely on a keyboard.
READ THE MANUAL BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS
Portrait sets:
http://pastebin.com/AGSSPz6f
>>340821097
I know how to rebind the keys. What I mean is it still says "2" or "6" instead of the key I have bound, so trying to navigate the menus is still a cluster fuck because every tooltip tells me something I don't use. Ya dig?
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?

Put them in PICTUREGATE and then they will be imported into USERDATA after you go through that process in the options.

I'm sure he would have figured it out if he worked on it for like 5 more minutes. He asked hoping there was a quick and easy answer, which there was. No need to get worked up.

Stranger of Sword City or Elminage Gothic?
I want to play a decent game with custom portraits that are a decent size.
Elminage is apparently shit but costs a chunk less than SoSC
>>340825226
Elminage Gothic doesn't even have custom portraits normally
Everyone says to just emulate Original on PSP anyway
>>340825226
Elminage gothic is bad.
Elminage original is much better, just emulate it.
>>340825226
Elminage Gothic is just a huge fuck you to play and mod
Does picking the nice or asshole dialogue choices affect anything story wise?
>>340825384
>>340825635
>>340825657
>custom portraits that are a decent size
I'll keep the Original>Gothic in mind for later, but I was hoping for something that would show a lot of your character(s). It's dumb but it makes a pretty big difference to me
Just want to say thank you to whoever did the GBF portraits. Don't play the game, but love the art.
If I could request a couple that would fit my party, I'd like to have these

So this stranger is sword city is basically like etrian odyssey but on pc?

Where is Mero?

But EO is on PC.
>>340829180

No map drawing, less pedo artstyle, definitively worse music. Building characters here feels more fun than in EO though

>>340830014
An updated version with new content releases pretty soon so i'd wait until then to see if they will release that on PC, they probably won't though.
>>340830014
It is worth $40 I think, $30 is with the discount. Depends on how much you feel like you need to play a dungeon crawler at the moment.
>>340830218
Oh man, thanks.

ImgD is literally just a crop of the eye area. Look at the premade ones.

Oh well, rejoice I guess. There's an option for people like you as well
>>340829864
Been around since 2007. You have to be pretty deluded if you think Himukai's art isn't pedo as fuck though. Don't get me wrong, some of his designs are cute, but the man is an admitted lolicon artist.
>having portraits that clash with the game's artstyle
YAMEROOOOOOOOOOO
>>340831227
>m-muh art clashing
Is it just me or are Wizards straight garbage. Such limited MP pools that you have to be picky with your magic, even when you do use it effectively (against weak elements) it still does shit for damage. Feels like all they're good for is casting Magic Weapon and Slow.
Just bought it, does it require a ton of grinding?
What's the difficulty compared to say, Etrian Odyssey IV?
Is this game beatable/enjoyable even if I don't tryhard and minimalize stats and skills?
made dick kickem
>>340831227
Go home Rean
How hard will this game fuck my ass?
I've never played a dungeon RPG before and I've already heard the phrase "instadeath enemy" get thrown around and it's really keeping me from trying this.
>>340831574
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)
>>340830531
It took how many years for it to be localized? Even if I owned a Vita I wouldn't hold my breath.
why is it recommended to change classes at lvl 13?
>>340832205
You unlock a skill slot for every class you level to 13.
>>340820419
>No one here playing with a team full of BETA.
>>340832205
Lv 13 minimum for the skill slot. Some classes have useful skills much later though
>>340831931
>instant death
thanks for letting me know
into the trash it goes
may as well be the devs shouting WE WERE TOO LAZY FOR REAL MECHANICS
>>340832752
found the casual!
>>340820419
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?
>>340832841
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.
>>340832996
>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.
>>340833124
She's pocket-sized, no bully.
>>340833110
>>340833151
Thanks for that. It's not quite as bad as it sounds, it seems.
It does sound like you want to make everyone at the start. I hope you don't unlock any other classes or something, that could be annoying.
>>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.
I just got (almost) against Charon, but i want to farm a bit before that
M.o. Storms has like 3 different chests only
M.o. Sea might be affordable, but holy fuck the No Spells gimmick is so not fun. Also slight lineage danger
M.o. Ice is maximum cockblock, not only No Skills allowed, but the Chimera lineage that spawns at the fourth turn of EVERY ambush and likes to roflstomp me ("oh no taunt? it'd be a shame to ATTACK 7 TIMES THE FIGHTER")
Ghost town is old.
Over-the-shoulder portraits are god-tier.
>>340832574
Wouldn't it be better to get all the skills on a class before switching then to maximize versatility?
>>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.
>>340833517
>no skills allowed dungeon
oh god that sounds horrifying
>>340833592
It's one of the primary reasons I'm strongly tempted to do a Rance run, because it fits so well. Bless the anon who first put the Rance 03 portraits together and made me realize it.
Only regret is that Patton wasn't playable in 03, so no Punch Tank.
>>340833592

>>340833592
My autism would make it very hard to multi-class the characters properly.

>>340833592
Rance quest pack when
>>340833517
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.
>>340834146
>confine
>in the ice dungeon
Haha nice one anon.
>>340833592
Should resize them a little so they don't completely cover small enemies like that. Bet they also cover the damage display.
is there any fucking point going pass 25 agi in this game for any reasons? Seems it doesn't effect hit and avoid at all...
>>340832752
>tfw playing SMT:SJ

>>340834106
Why Rance quest?
>>340833592
If possible can you make Julia and Bernard and Sioux?
Also what classes are good for each character?
>>340834106
Sadly Quest just uses face images in battle. 2 however does have an over the shoulder portrait
Is it better to have a strong 1 hit weapon or a weapon that hits 3/4 times for the same total damage?
how hard is it?
how grindy is it?
how much customization does it have? like no party will be equal to another? or it's pretty much just cookie cutter stuff all the time?
>>340834483
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.
>>340835047
Because it aslo have more character. Oh and aslo crook.
>>340835414
Rance IX then.
Quest actually doesn't have that many portraits.
Rance IX also has Aegis/Pastel/Reset/Helman/Barres etc
Though compared to Quest it does miss Arms
>>340835564
That will do too but isn't IX have portrait on sideways only?
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.
Tell your friends, tell your neighbors! This is the greatest art of the 21st century!
How much of an endgame or postgame or whatever is there? This affects whether I will class change that much in the midgame.
>>340825226
Do you like ninjas who randomly behead you? Do you enjoy PERMANENT LEVEL DRAIN? Do you enjoy Engrish and getting lost in dungeons because you're out of maps?
Are you masochist?
If you answer yes to all of those by all means buy Elminage Gothic.I still had fun with it though.
Is this a game where if someone dies they get no exp, or every class has different level up points? Cause I'm one of those autists who'll restart or suicide a whole floor run in EO if someone dies before the fight ends, and one character is left behind with Exp that doesn't match the rest
>>340835674
Quest on has sideways/front on
Rance IX also has images like this which can be used.

How many stats am I going to be able to max out if I make my characters 10 year old?
Other similiar games?
With good character customization/creation such as this and a lot of content.
>>340830991
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.
>>340836410
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?

It seems like you die at least twice no matter what you do or class you pick.
>>340837018
I just defended as a knight MC and got thru fine.
>>340836983
If I remember correctly, Albedo has a full plate armor set and Lina usually makes shit blow up with her dragon slave. But I'm kinda rusty.
>>340836683
damn look at all of that patrician taste
good choices anon
>>340837018
Have Riu spam Iron Guard and poke things with your puny MC until they die. If you're using a squishy MC with no STR you might be shit out of luck though.
>>340837113
Lina uses a sword a lot
>>340837018
You can't even survive it on beginner unless you just sit and defend every turn
what's better, this or Sakura Dungeon?
>>340837396
This if you're an actual human, sakura dungeon if you're an unironic "otaku" that would wear anime shirts in public.
>>340837304
and then always ditches it when she realizes her god-killing spells are way more effective
>>340837113
Yeah, Albedo is full plate.
>>340837396
>>340837479
Sakura Dungeon isn't even good for that.
If I wanted a good hentai dungeon crawler I'd play Rance VI
>>340837479
>implying im not the latter and use custom portraits of animeme characters
baka
>>340837396
By all accounts Sakura Dungeon is flat out horrible. FYI it has no gear at all. Better to play a full on ero VN than that.
>>340837493
Yeah, I know she can use em I just seem to remember her relying on sheer power most of the time. Figured Albedo would work as a samurai with her killing potential.
>>340837479
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.
>>340838051
Anon, if you wear one no one is going to really say anything different to you. But they know. They know. It's like if you have terrible B.O. Someone on the bus isn't going to walk up to you and say "WOW YOUR B.O. STINKS," but they will judge you. Always judging.
>>340838287
Leave the Anon alone. Let him enjoy his anime shirts while vaping, wearing shorts, crocs with socks, and playing his 3DS in public. He's an adult, and he doesn't need to care what others think of his appearance.
>>340838287
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.
I go out with cumstains on my shorts to buy soda and smokes, no one gives a fuck.

how much difference is there from normal to beginner? i don't want a faceroll, but is normal just artificial difficulty increase?
do you unlock hell mode or something like that after normal?
>>340838287
Anon, if I cared about randoms judging me on the street I would have killed myself already. I'm a fat fuck, you think I don't feel the stares? You think I don't notice the disgust of people when they see me? You think I don't hear them muttering because I use more space than them on the subway?
A subtle anime shirt is nothing, is not like I'm wearing some Kodomo no Jikan shirt to church.
>>340838662
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.
Getting my shit pushed in by the dragon and the rabbit. I'm looking for any help.
>>340838504
>smell how you like
Please no, you will turn our public places into a zoo
Does age of the MC have any effect on the story whatsoever? I don't see any reason to go for anything lower than 60+ age unless you just intentionally want to make the game harder for yourself.
voice 17 is the best
>Chosen one
>Life points will not decrease
wait does that mean making a young character to have 3 LP as the MC was a complete fucking waste?

Is this a mobile port or something? That interface looks very suspect.

Take your guess
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.

>>340839361
Highest I've seen with 5 min is a 12. But I pressed re-roll too fast and lost it. 90% of the time it's 5 and 6.
What is max possible bonus?
>>340839604
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.
>>340841550
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.

37 seems to be the max required for armor. Check http://sosc.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page for stat requirements for equipment.
You want AGI too though, AGI tanks are this game's meta

She also rides a fucking mech. The fight against this Lineage Type scared me at first, motherfucker ate my tank for most of the fight, thenpoison and party wide attacksmade me panic.

>>340844039
just pirate it, frogbro
>>340843787
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.
>>340843965
I need agi? fuck
guess I should split them half and half then? ugh

>>340844962
Haven't played Ray Giant, I'll tell you when it comes to PC.
What do you mean better designed dungeons? Dungeon graphics look like shit to be honest. The challenge can be frustrating if you aren't into sadistic RNG mechanics(I love them)
>>340844834
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?
>>340845087
Patch to fix crash
How high do + on items go? I thought it's +10 but I just found a +11
This guy is starting to get really annoying. I can't finish my fights fast enough and this fucker appears and wrecks my party.
>>340846327
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.
>>340842817
But spirit Wall is not enough right now, it's still triggering instakill when he casts requiem, Is that how it's supposed to go?
>>340848360
I'm probably just undergeared. I can still tank well enough but dealing enough damage seems to be the problem.
>have to reroll for an hour every fucking time I make someone
So, I can't beat the dragon/bunny combo, can't seem to withstand salamander's lair. Where can I get some leveling and gear done?
>>340851507
Spam spirit wall and just assassinate her down while your spellcasters spam slow. Once she's dead it's a joke. You can get it done at level ~15 without trouble.
>>340850985
Just cheatengine your desired roll, why waste your time.
tfw playing on a pad just to hide those stupid number prompts on the ui
>>340851937
The exact turn I cast spirit wall I got 2 times oneshot. Still not sure If I'm missing something here...
>>340851937
Actually, make it so that even the spider is being a bitch now. Can't even beat her again without at least the wiz dying. Where can I grind/get better equips than M.o. Fire? Nothing better seems to drop there.
How is time spent in battle calculated?
I did 300 fights but the revive time reduced only by 2 hours.
>>340852354
Try taunting.
Having your cleric spam the breath defense is also good since that's a pain.
>>340852718
You can farm the 3 ambush spots next to spiderbitch. Easier fights overall.
I made my whole party 20something year old and got +8/+9 rolls, should I just restart and make them old?
>>340853090
I do taunt, usually when the formation breaks is when shit goes down.
ghost town drops are better then MoF then, eh
Are there amb spots near her? I don't think I found them then. God bless you bro.
>>340853373
Right side on the dark corridors, The 3 outside ones are the ambush spots.
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 0MC as knight was a mistake.
Seems like avoid stacking is everything in this game.
>>340853560
Welp, they seem easy enough. Nothing better so far though, I'll keep at it. Thanks man.
After someone dies and gets reseructed, how are the "hearts" replenished?
I guess it's over time but do they also have to stay at home?
How the fuck do Hit and Avoid work with a Cleric? I see that he's learning these spells, but I can't find anywhere to cast them, just healing spells.
>>340854247
And here's the advice I'll give you for after the Dragon.
Don't kill their front line and the fight is easy.
>>340854960
Bottom right corner of the spell window. There's tabs for heal, attack, and support.

>>340856063
Thanks anon
I'll take your word that its actually a good game and not shovelware
>>340856175it never affects hit
>>340856508
B-but the manual says it does.
>>340853157
>>340855813
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.

Do the hit/avoid buffs and debuffs stack or am I wasting my turns?

>>340858156
They stack.

You can only change the portraits of your own party, not of the ingame monsters.
At least, unless someone figures out how to mod the game and replace assets.
>>340860776
I have one, but I want monster girls as monsters in my game.
Sorry that you can't separate fantasy from reality, and balance real life and hobbies.

>8 days to recover a life point
It'd be quicker to grind up a whole new character
>>340863319
The game's weird
Life Points are supposed to be there to make it less punishing but they cost loads and give you weaker characters
>>340863319
That's why you create a number of backup characters right at the start of the game. They'll passively gain XP, so you don't have to train them as much as new characters when you need to replace someone.
>>340863598
Yeah I've got a B Team ready, it's just weird how long the wait is
Is there any way to find out which enemies are weak to which elements, or do you just have to trial and error it out?

Try that, I also stuck the shitty rui I made in there.

Puppeteer - monster control, skills that make suggestions to enemies and they follow them, like changing rows
Chronomancer - time control, can get multiple actions per turn, i think it's semi-tank
And one unannounced.

Theres katar if you go ninja. Get 25 agi, sub luck and split the rest in str/vit. 25 agi is cap for removing dual wield penalties. Luck for proc status. Katars has thr highest number of blows (4or5xdamage + chance of status on each)

So I start the game, and get assigned with killing the lineage types in the slums, palace, and forest. I finish the forest and make it to the orc worshiping stone, make it to the mines in the slums but we cant use the elevator, and made it to the underground of the palace but need a kingdom chivalry
An anon said to advance the plot to keep going by getting more divinities so I do that, and get tasked with testing a armor knight in a fight, attending the meeting, doing the experiment and heading to the slums after the plane crash, and clearing out revived lineage types at the magic stones.
What now? I dont know what to do next. Where is my kingdom chivalry?

It's not a negative review, it's a negative recommendation.
As in, he doesn't recommend buying it at the current price.
>>340870679
>>340870752
Alright just tested it. I had to level to increase to mess up with.
+0 vit stat increase (with +2 vit ring equip) = 68 to 91hp
+2 vit stat increase (no ring) = 68 to 104
+2 vit stat increase (with +2vit ring equip) 68 to 104
So basically it doesn't work. It seems to only be used for extra defense I suppose
>>340871735
I had two levels*, on this question still, does that mean that an earlier vit investment is more rewarding since you get HP increase by levels ?
Like why would I not bump a lot of vit and catch up important stats after ?
>>340871583
Because those are mediums whose prices are mostly fixed, with only a few variations in value. Videogames can range between anywhere from a few cents to 70 bucks. For example, I would give $15 for Overwatch for sure, but for $60 there are a ton of games I can get that are better than it.
>>340871865
The guide I read recommended getting everyone's VIT to at least 15 as your first priority regardless of class, probably for that reason.
>>340872012
make sens, next time I make characters I'll bump 20 vit/agi for physicals and 15vit for cleric/wizard
thanks!
So how do I beat Kyo?
Even with Iron Defense, the divinity that reduces physical damage, and a cleric spamming multi avoid, he seems to just avoid all that and hits my entire team like a truck.
the fight between rui and alm was funny
So I murdered the white ninja but now what the fuck do I do in Black Shadow Town? The only way out is locked and I haven't gotten any item for the black clan or whatever.
>>340872012
can you post the link of that guide
I'll trying to pinpoint stats for people
STR = Any physical damage increase (bow, sword, everything)
VIT = Defense up and Hp up (15 minumum recommend for any characters) Maximum to get is 37 for certain equipment requirement
AGI = does't not increase HIT at all, only affect base avoid and remove dual wielding penalties at 25 agi (essential for ninja, samurai) I'm not sure why Bows need agi either
PIE= MP up and affect holy magic
INT= MP up and affect elemental magic
Luck= increase status effect chance on yourself and the enemies and other sub things
You can always reference yourself to the Demon Gaze spreadsheet

Thanks. Found it.
How is the combat? I hate how Elminage had lots of repetitive brainless combat and evil traps
>>340874137
Honestly it's great. I highly recommend playing with 1 LP (instead character death) so you can learn when to autocombat and when to manage your shit. Because you clearly are wayyyy more efficent when playing tactical. It's fun to get some attack patterns and repeat them and create combo on top of class combo ala FFT
>>340874137
It has a fast mode and a repeat button so you can power through turns in early game where all you can do is attack or heal
>>340872684
Don't kill his buddies first
spam slow before he gets to the front
Ideally you should have a ninja spam assassinate on him
Reading the jap wiki right now. Basically, if I want a decent ninja, I should make a Samurai first before class changing?
After playing Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy, so much of this game feels like a downgrade.
The pacing at the start of the game is hot garbage. Even with a second team to swap out, one wrong roll in a dungeon often means a Return to Title. Once you finally get over the first dungeon, the game thankfully picks up.
The permadeath system is more annoying than interesting with down times taking forever. Once you get gudgear, this stops being so much of a hassle until you get to the next area.
The bulk of the shop offerings are worthless. By the time the player can afford useful items, enemies shower them like popcorn. The shop rarely, if ever restocks.
The lack of crafting/item buffing system means the bulk of my ambush items are just sold for pennies. Uniques can be rerolled at the Mummic, but that isn't much of a consolation.
I don't mind the slow pacing, but it honestly feels like they didn't fully play test this game.
>>340875114
Samurai>dancer>ninja
Is the better for a ninja
You need 25 agi for the samurai's dual wield and the weapon trick you get from dancer will allow you to target any enemy on the battlefield
>>340875114
it depends if you want slash
versus infinite range (Dancer) + trickstep (multi hit on single target, need to charge a turn)
you could even mix up fighter and play it defense with dual katana counters

I just realized the butterfly ring is a hint to finding the butterfly nest in the storm dungeon
>hide behind the path of pain
>butterfly nest is behind a whole row of lighting damage tiles
>>340877430
what are butterfly nest ? I'm at the 2 or 3rd dungeon and havent encounter one
>>340877540
Normal ones can warp you out or if you kill them you get a bunch of exp
There are special ambush spots where there are ONLY butterflies, you can loads of exp and the good butterfly items
>>340839361
i've gotten a 17 with 10 bonus min, i think 20 is the max
How to not fuck up my characters? Feel like I should be reading a guide with all this shit.
>>340877842
you mean 17 total, or 17 bonus after the 10 minimum so 27?
>>340877842
I've gotten at 23 one time at +10 without the fortunate perk
>it fell on my wizard
also probably reroll at least 6 times a 20 by mistake since I started playing this game.
Where do I go in the mines after beating the Black Baron? Or do I go to other areas.
>>340877901
this
How do I decide when to class change and into what without blindly following a flowchart?
>>340878126
Other areas
But be sure to check the mines thoroughly for the butterfly nest ambush point
>>340876749
In the poison dungeon right before the spider boss, the hallways there have enemies with really decent spears and bows.
>>340878267
Yeah I found it a bit ago, thanks though. Also how to kill butterflies reliably? Sometimes I oneshot them but some I cannot kill at all. I've tried magic weapon.
How do I unlock the mines elevator? Got kicked out. Also I cant continue in the shadow palace, I need the kingdom chivalry to unlock a door.
Instead I went on with the story to the point where Riu did that ceremony and a new airplane crashed and I had to fight a dragon thing at the site.
Now I have to clear the magic teleportation stones.
Whats next? Kinda lost
>>340878390
Assasinate wrecks them instantly
Use slow to lower their avoid
Any skill with multihits works well
>>340878218
>>340877901
simply follow
>>340872879
for stats. Also remember it's better to invest in VIT early since you max hp bonus increase each levels. Just putting 20 vit on a wizard early and alter is life bar much
You can cross class in this game
either go full physical
>str, vit, agi (25 cap for DW) and luck status (status are weapon based, there's critical and KO status)
or you could hybrid and
cleric>knight with VIT and PIE spread and catch up on STR later, you dont need AGI for HIT
For a healing paladin frontline
>>340878501
Do the sidequest in the place where you have to retrieve something to get the key to the elevator, after beating the dragon you should get a key in mausoleum of metal to go to a new place and you should also be able to get the shadow palace key thing after that.
>game tells me the forest is the easiest of the 3 labyrinths avaliable after I go there
Why not tell me that before lol
>>340879110
That's a lie though
Harpies and orcs will fuck you up instantly
>>340879110
Metal factory thing is way easier
>>340879175
Harpies ain't shit, and Orcs aren't that bad but sometimes you'll randomly run into lvl 25+ ones when you're only level 5 yourself, which means you either run away or get fucked. The level 12-16 ones are ezpz.
>>340878390
>>340878553
They have like what, 50HP? just slap them with as many smacks as you can with spirit-enchanted gear for most automation.

Any tips on when to change classes?
>>340879478
I just found a golden butterfly and even slapping 8 slows on it and having my party with +5 hit I still couldn't hit it, even with assassinate. What the fuck.
>>340879775
Golden butterflies aren't real anon. You can't hit what doesn't exist.
>>340879717
refer to
http://sosc.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page
for class level unlock
You want to hit level 13 most of the time to unlock and an extra skill slot(class mix up skill) You can reborn 5 times so it's cool if you want to build up a cleric, start it ranger so you have Bow Soul Skills unlock and switch it to cleric at level 1. So he can fire even back line when not healing. You could also level ranger a bit to get confine (skill that damage less but reduce hit and avoid of the enemy, great support, level 6 or 7 I think)
>>340879775
>>340880104

>>340872879
>AGI = does't not increase HIT at all, only affect base avoid
In the last thread people were pointing to this being backwards.
>>340880189
all my hits do like 4 dmg even with magic weapon
and then it just heals 100 hp back

Apply yourself.
>>340881304
Or if you want upper body only you can crop this down.
>>340881354
Go speak to Riu.
Also the sidequest is somewhere near the areas with the dark places with tons of doors, go check there.
>>340881304

Your parents think you were a mistake.
>>340881423
first 3 large because they are frontline and the rest small because backline. the 5th one is a cropped image, dont want her hovering in mid air.
>>340881710
I meant apply yourself in creating decent portraits, not apply yourself in making up dumb excuses.
>>340881710
Looks a lot better though, but fair enough you can do what you want. I really don't care how badly my extra team members mesh with the rest of the game. Helps me remember whos a filler and whos not.
>>340881921
I suppose you prefer something like this.
DID SOMEONE SAY HEART STONES?
>>340882158
That looks pretty good man, but I've spent a long time with this party as is. I will change them when I do a new game +
>>340882292
No, but unlike your pictures those at least have somewhat consistent sizes and artstyles, and none of them are stretched or squashed.

Adol and Megumin are fine, the GATE slut is meh she never fucks.
Just got past the tutorial stage. Should I be juggling these three new dungeons or what?
>>340881450
I did. She said to give crystals to the other two since she got 3 for free for her failed experiment.
So if i want to reach Spirit Wall, i could give Blood Crystals first to Alm for the bottom one, then Riu for the middle and finally to Marilith for Spirit Wall. Am i getting this right?

For real, Sword Bond 1 is really good because free 20% physical damage buff, Dragon Fist is amazing because hit debuffs, and Sky Dragon negates ambushes.
>>340884365
>No sword bond
Enjoy getting one-shotted by ninjas
>>340841550
What about ninja?
Why is there no ninja path?
>>340886038
Because you want to follow some shitty premade guides instead of thinking for yourself
>>340886038
>Ninja 13 > Fighter 15 > Ranger 28 > Dancer 28 > Cleric 30 > Ninja X
Source: me.
>>340886216

>>340886038
>>340841550
Btw, don't bother following this guide unless you're planning on doing multiple playthroughs or a lot of grinding.
>>340886038
It's an autism min/max guide based on multiple playthroughs, don't follow it by heart.
If you want a ninja then
For dual wielding katanas samurai 4/13 > dancer 6/13 > ninja++
For bow Ranger 15 > ninja++, later on you can also go ranger 28 and fighter 28 for a hitler cosplay with infinite genocide.
Man those last bosses are a pain in the ass.

Should I have my LVL 14 Wizard change to Cleric? Not sure how to build her. Or my Knight Fighter and Ninja. I dont want to follow that guide that gets posted here all the time because I dont intend on doing multiple runs and NG+ modes.
Any tips?
>>340890019
>learned Firestorm by that fight
>super easymode
>>340890180
Either go wizard 30 > dancer 15 > cleric 30 or Wizard 14 > dancer 13 > cleric 30 > wizard 30
Dancer 13 gives you something to do while you're not casting spells with the morale song and weapon trick, also backup healing with item use.
Knight is pretty straight forward, you want ninja 15 and fighter 4 or 10(13) and everything else is just extra.
Fighter 28 + Ranger 28 can spam genocide as long as they are not damaged so you want him in backrow, use a bow or slap dancer 6(13) in there for weapon trick, samurai 1 4 or 13 if you want to dualwield.
Main fighters aren't that great compared to samurais unless you use high concentration + genocide.
For ninja see >>340887864

You are very alright in my book, nigga.
Fuck, I didn't know there's a guy named Kyo in SoSC.
>>340883505
It doesn't matter, you can take a skill from Marilith and then one from Alm. The only restraint is that you can get only one skill from each column.
>>340894236
You can rename yourself.
Guys I need a GAR team. Right now I have Kenshiro and Guts. Not sure about the other four.
>>340893612
Those 2 knight portraits are they in the game? If not they blend in with the game's artstyle perfectly.

Archer obviously.
Moulder from FE7 as your healer
Magusar from SSD as your wizard
Zero Rider as your tank.
>>340895313
>Archer obviously.
Not a fan of Fate honestly. Moulder isn't a bad option but I would rather look into my other options. Don't know who Magusar is honestly.
>>340894906
Get someone from Jojo. Maybe Dio as your ninja.
>>340895006
There you go, my man. http://imgur.com/a/szGyD
I ended up learning how to crop in photoshop just to make custom portraits, but im not sure what to crop now
>>340893526
really? how?
>>340895973
Thanks! The first 5 portraits fit really well, will probably use some.
Really not sure if I want to try it. Never liked any of dungeon crawlers I played. I played Etrian Odyssey and Legend of Grimrock. On the other hand I had a lot of fun with roguelikes - ADOM and Elona mostly.
>>340895837
Nah Ken will be the ninja. He needs to ATATATA enemies.

Its a pretty cool guy, eh devours souls and doesnt affraid of the apocalypse

>>340894393
How? Also can't seem to change my own portrait.
>>340891810
isn't that like level 19 shit
>>340896759
At the base, in the management tab. You can change appearance, voice and name for anyone.
>>340898697
Oh I just got there, was still in the tutorial. Thanks.
I've just began and need sagely advice. Is the starting dancer fucking worthless? I have throwing knives+3 equipped to him in both hands and he always hits for one? Does this have something to do with dualwielding or am I just dumb and don't get how this works. Hes in the back row like the game suggested he should be. Should I just abort this clown fucker for an archer or something?
Also what do the circles mean on item descriptions?
>>340899581
stay with the dancer, weapon trick skill is a lifesaver later on.
Throwing darts just suck big monkey dick as a weapon. Slings are a bit better.
One circle means weakness, two circles means resistance.
>>340899581
Special weapons, everything thrown, are complete dogshit for damage, they are there for status effects and filler.
Dancers also aren't a 'main' class, they've got great skills that you want to transfer to other classes but don't really want to stay a full time dancer.
Level it to 6 for weapon trick or to 13 for sword song and a skill slot and then class change to something else.
Every physical attacker except ranger fucking LOVES having weapon trick and sword song is great on clerics or wizards that plan on class changing to clerics.
>Also what do the circles mean on item descriptions?
Press F1 nigger.
Does starting gender affect anything in the game or can I safely play as a cute loli?
Just put together some portraits based on females from various visual novels. Don't just stick them in your PICTUREGATE folder, they are named after the character's name and not the 01-16 format.
I will probably keep making more but here are nine for now. Feel free to add it to any pastebins that get made.

I don't recognize the top right. What is she from?
Good game, but the multi-class system makes it horribly grindy: your low level schmucks are shit until they grow their levels back, which can be very time consuming.
Also, do force hit and force avoid stack like the other spells? The game really needs someway to know the current upgraded/lowered stats.
>>340902590
Just a random character from Taimanin Asagi Battle Arena.
>>340903018
Thanks.
Can magic items be used infinitely? I.e should I buy this fire wand for my zero mana wizard to be useful?
>>340903980
I think so, but every use has a change of cursing the item, making it useless until you leave the dungeon to get it fixed.
>>340894393
>>340898697
Nice, I didn't know that.
Just started a new playthrough. Rate.It has triggered my autism that i couldnt find matching art for 2 of the characters

is there an easy way to download these without having to right click save & rename them all? Mostly wanna know for future reference as well
Has anyone made a team of memes? like megusta, trollface, foreveralone, sadfrog etc.

What does touching/killing butterflies do. I'm trained to not make a choice/do shit out of fear of horrible shit happening to me.
Should I learn genocide? Is it good? What does it do?
I might want to RP as hitler with top SS officers who fucked up an experiment and ended up in the other world
So do I take butterflies or just murder every one I see? Does the story reward you in any way for not ripping their wings off outside of a token item and trip back to town?
>>340910646
Touching them teleports you back to the base.
Killing them gives you lods of exp.
Made a small collection of different portraits and whatnot that I found consistent and with a relatively good art style. I'll keep adding to it as people post their links on here.
https://mega.nz/#!XkI3zayQ
>>340910646
If you touch them you get ported back to town, if you kill them you get a load of exp.
Butterflies are the best source of exp in the game, especially butterfly nests.
>>340910747
Makes seven attacks at random enemies in a chosen row, total damage is 4.9 x your normal damage.
Requires concentration so it's nice with rangers high concentration.
>>340911980
So far the collection includes:
6 intoners (drakengard 3)
16 monster girls
16 rance sprites (rance 3 I believe? has the over-the-shoulder sprites for battle)
12 "similar to in-game art style" portraits
6 dragon's crown characters.
>>340910747
> might want to RP as hitler with top SS officers who fucked up an experiment and ended up in the other world

>All these people trying to min-max by rerolling for 5 hours
>Then they immediatly switch classes at Lv. 13
Wouldn't the most optimal way to minmax is to fully level your character to 30 on one class so you get all the skills/spells/stats associated with it, and then change classes?
>>340912641
You can also look at character art from Atlantica Online. They fit pretty well if you edit them a bit. Leftmost guy in pic related for example.
Does the shop EVER update their stock?
Already beat the first two dungeons and currently doing Shadow Palace and the shopkeeper still has jackall for me to buy since I can just ambush infinitely better equipment.

curious too.
Anyone know how Shock tiles work and what sets them off? Some I can step on no problem but other times its ouch.
>>340915909
You only have so many skill slots, and you're entering certain classes for a particular skill (like Ninja's negating passive, and not the other skills which need Hide to work).
>>340917207
The shop never restocks.
Don't fuck up.

>>340916814
holy shit I forgot about atlantica online lol. But yeah if you or anyone else uploads some ready to go art for it ill add it to my collection for reposting in these threads.
>>340920486
It's fun atm, but I can see it getting old really fast. Too grindy and randomly difficult for my liking. Also no saving in dungeons is fucking murder if you only can play for a bit at a time.
Fuck, I was exploring the first dungeon and had 8 skeletons appear. One row was around lvl15, and they could summon replacements. I won but they killed off 2 of my characters and I now have to use my weaker B team to fill the holes for the next 4 hours of play or so.
Dunno, lot of potential, gorgeous graphics, fun enough combat, but I probably won't be sticking with it.
>>340906504
Yeah I'm no good at editing, if only i could find matching styles
