Is there an area in the game large and flat enough for me to do donuts in my skell?
I'm thinking about the lake in Sylvalum.

How do I add a blank slot to fashion item? ie to hide the helmet on one character
>>136880180
Select slot, press X, choose "remove gear."
>>136880229
Maybe I didn't explain it properly.
They have a helmet equipped, but I want to equip an 'invisible' helmet on fashion gear so that I don't see the helmet equipped for stats.
>>136880526
Ah, I see. Unfortunately the only thing you can do is go into system settings and choose "hide headgear," but this will hide every piece of headgear in the entire game. I'd recommend using a "headset" piece for your head slot if you want something non-intrusive.

>>136882124
Thanks. I hoped people would recognize him, by name and appearance.
>>136874223
He looks like your typical shounen anime protagonist and I love it.
i was hoping i could create a monster gatling/javelin build, but i'm running into a sort of petty problem; i can't seem to squeeze more than 350 RP outta telethia plume. and that sucks, because my ether longsword record is 995, which i know could have been more efficient, but doing it with a gatling has all the little nuances of the attack math in full force, and lot of my attacks have a delayed response so a LOT of numbers appear at a time so it's hard for me to gauge which combination of augments has the most effect
i had to fiddle a bit with gradivus, but i think i topped out at 4.5 mil a hit (i actually need to do this again because i forget which attack landed that), which i'm sure can be increased without probes.
i'm really just trying to minmax RA plus/RA boost/appendage crusher (i already have two AC from traits) and trying to determine the value that an elemental plus might have or if another one of the previous is worth it.
well, that and the fact that i have to actively CHASE THE FUCKER DOWN half the time, since i knock him the fuck back now and again. at least with the longsword he stood there and took it.

360h and still a shitter.
>>136898568
Resist Reducer XX on boots with Resist Reducer XX augment is usually enough, I'd say Feather Touch/Unpleasant Dream.
>>136899335
Yeah the damage increase from Unpleasant Dream is hard to ignore. I am skeptical of how debuff resistant most enemies are.
What notable enemies are immune to sleep?
How do you guys prefer to go through the game? My first playthrough I kind of rushed down the story to get it out of the way so I could do everything else, but I ended up not having much fun that way. I recently picked it up again and wiped my file so that I could try to handle all the quests gradually between story missions. I'm trying to keep affinity fairly equal between everybody too, but holy fuck does that ever emphasize the fact that Emma and Lynn are forced to go with you all the time.
>>136899335
>360h and still a shitter
Know what, fuck that. Anyone mind posting their broken builds, quipment/augs/arts/skills, so that I can copy it as precisely as possible? Have 3xPotential, 1xPotential Boost, 1xResist Reducer, maybe some other good ones but can't recall now. I could go for EBD as it's what's mostly finished but I wanted to try my hand at toppling but that didn't quite work out despite it seeming more entertaining to do.
>>136899836
I liked to do some sidequests, generally I would explore a ton, go to close hexes I wanted to see, and check Data Points. I didn't rush through the story, generally tried to explore and run where I wasn't supposed to be, before doing anything specific.
>Nagi's last H2H
>He's partying with Sakuraba co.
>when you finish the H2H they all disappear as usual
>but the pizza doesn't
Dammit nagi this is how you get manons.
>>136899836
The most annoying is that you can't have phog and frye in the same team until you beat the affinity quest that requires both to have 3 hearts, which has a chapter 8 requirement.
The bad gates in this game are requiring level 5 AM to get good armor drops/variety.
Miranium Storage limited by duplicator probes that need chapter 8+ quest completion
And goddamn affinity quests that require Elma and Lin.
Basically game is just telling you to rush
>>136899836
I did mostly every sidequest available before progressing to the next chapter and then some exploring around when I felt like it. Going unnoticed around high leveled enemies areas was the best thing ever.
I still remember my trekk through most of Eastern Noctilum searching for a damned EM Motor, which turns out it was easier to recruit Murderess for it but the fun I had exploring around the lowered spiral tree and it's surroundings, the blue valley with the fuckhuge flowers, the Nopon Road, Buchwald's Trove with the scary petramands unborrowing out of nowhere while I pillaged the cave, running past the insidias to finally reach Witherwood and then when I finally managed to get a motor I came out through the other exit and avoided the Ganglion base and ended up below the Tainted area. Placed a probe near there and then returned to the mission but man, I really miss all those hours, the postgame is rather dull.
>>136900896
You barely need storage during the game.
AM armors are nice but you can do fine with just drops.
Elma and Lin you can change out for anything else, lots of normal quest don't require them, or the board tasks, exploring around. I still took Elma with me most of the time but that's just my raging Elmanism.
In the end, there's really no need to rush.
>>136900896
I just never understood why this game doesn't give your party members experience or let you just select them from a menu when you see them when the previous game had 7 characters and this one has 18. It's a great game still, but that's a seriously questionable design decision.
>>136901247
All seven travelled together but here you take a small team and leveling them up isn't a problem when a higher leveled enemy drops loads of xp even if dead.
It'd been nice, sure, but not that awful.
>>136899836
so far i've been just exploring as much as i can and going through side quests and raising affinity, though i do get sick of "gather x" quests being fucking everywhere
currently having a blast flying around with skells and exploring new areas, nice seeing everything from above
i completely forgot H2Hs were a thing though how do you even view them? i remember XC showing where they were specifically even if you didn't meet the requirements but i'm not seeing much of that
>>136901438
I get the literal story reason behind it, but it still seems rather silly to me. There's no reason they couldn't have some terminal you could recruit people from or something. I just don't like having to go on a scavenger hunt for party members, especially during the breif time when they're not in their usual spot because then I have to hunt down a place to change the time. That's another thing that seems odd to me, not letting you change the time wherever you feel like.
I agree with you, they're minor gripes, but what makes them so glaring to me is the fact that the systems for these things were objectively superior from a player standpoint in the previous game. The only reason I can think to do it is flavor, and that seems like a silly reason to remove convenience features.
>>136901780
They're a bit odd in this game because for some you have to have a certain "pet" set (you get new pets from quests on the board occasionally and you set them at the same terminal you do skell stuff from), and unlike the previous game, the character in question actually has to not be in your party for you to view it
>>136901247
It ties more so to the fact that they wanted this game to not be about boy kills god with trusty friends.
Basically they wanted to emphasize that fact that you are a nobody and you only have co-workers, as a part of a society, rather than friends on a journey.
But sometimes I miss the conveniences of XC.
>save and load anywhere
>change time anywhere
>change party anywhere
>exchange gems(augments) without having to remove them first
The only thing you couldn't do in XC, was go solo. That's why XCX is more about solo builts rather than teamwork. Atleast that's how I see it.
>>136901780
The gathering quests of the board? Just accept the ones you already have all the items for.
For the normal missions about enemy parts, if they are bothersome buy those parts from the terminal of the barrack.
If it's Professor Brodin's Wand, abandon all hope ye who enter here. They are easier to collect on the water area to the west if only for the density with no monsters around.
>>136902203
>for some you have to have a certain "pet" set
that's vague as hell, i noticed a hint for phog's saying he was staring down with an animal at ishmael hill but he was never there despite being at a full heart aff
what the fuck kind of system is "change this cosmetic thing that does nothing in order trigger this emotional cutscene"
>>136902504
If you've seen the yellow bubble the info is properly set at the map hex, though the ones I overheard usually said if Lin was playing with a dog or Murderass was seen with a cat.
All this reading through the first generals and this little conversation is making me wish to start a new mim but I know it won't just be the same.
>>136902702
i recall a couple mentioning animals but still that's fucking stupid, the animal does NOTHING outside of the barracks yet it's required to be a specific animal for specific H2Hs to even appear?
>>136902846
Try it anon, it's more fun than you might think and a bit more streamlined since you won't feel bad about skipping scenes and dialogue you've already seen. You can pick choices you didn't before, and try out any classes you might have missed. Funnily enough one of the only two branches I didn't take my first playthrough turned out to be my favorite.
>>136902846
same. post game is kinda dull.
So all you have to do is create a new mii right, then you can have two save files?
>>136903717
I think you'll have to wipe your old file, but I could be wrong.

no, you can only have one save file per NNID.
you can create up to 12 NNIDs in on Wii U, so you can have up to 12 save files.
How do I get the Marry Me mission to show up on the terminal?
>>136909560

I had read before that all of the playable characters share the same bodys with the other people of their gender. As in they all have the same bust size and butt size and whatnot, they're just scaled to different heights. But Irina there definitely looks least busty than Murderess does in pix related (sorry for recycling the same picture from last thread, but it's the only example I have and I'm not at my Wii U to take a new shot).
From before DF started coloring.

Hey now
>>136929674
Kek.
>>136929606
Easiest way to do it without having to grind TOO much for a special build, is to make an Ares 90, and grind out what you need for enough ether resist augments to hit, I believe it was 110 or 120 ether resist, that way you'll be immune to Telly's ether attacks unless you get hit with a special move. After that, put any skell weapon speed augments you can manage, on the gatling. You'll also need to make sure you have an ether reflect negate augment at the very least, and a physical and thermal one as well if you want to be able to use all your moves even during telly's reflect moves.
Telly has 3 phases. Throughout the fight you need to be careful to always have a long animation move at the ready, because Telly has a few special moves that if they hit you will hit you hard and I think they temporarily disable your ether resist. Using a move, especially one with a long animation, will allow you to dodge those moves entirely, so if you time everything correctly and have the 110 or so ether resistance, you can go through the entire fight with taking little to no damage.
>Phase one
Telly will be flying around near max height and when engaged I don't think she does any of her special moves until second phase. Bring her health down to about 2/3rds and she'll start to descend. During this phase you want to focus on breaking her tail, because in phase two she has a topple move attached to the tail, on top of another topple move, so you want to get rid of the tail.
>Phase two
Telly will land on the ground and phase two will start. Stand on the low hanging branches/vines of the big flower thing somewhere where you're in weapon range, this way if you DO get hit by a topple, you won't take any real damage.
>Phase three
Once you get Telly's health to a third remaining, she'll take off again and you'll have to fight her in the air again. Phase three is the make it or break it part of the fight, one fuckup could spell your death so be careful.
>>136907538
I want to pull this Mims wings sexually
>>136933420
You're an all star
>>136928401
I'm last if he colors them the same direction as wave 2.
>>136933896
>cont.
There's some more specific shit that I don't remember about the phases of the fight which you can pick up after a couple attempts, but basically the entire thing boils down to how well you can time your moves to avoid her special moves, having enough ether resistance to not take damage, and having the right negate reflect XX augments so you don't get reflect killed. So since you're going for cheapest way to kill her, focus on getting those, and I recommended the ares 90 because it's super powerful without having to do much to it, so all you need to do is focus on the necessary augments to be able to survive.
Ganbatte anon, you can do it!

>>136937596
Even if a sequel gets announced it'd probably be after NX launch, but I guess any news really would at least fuel the thread.
>>136937334
Why wouldn't there be a sequel? Gears was owned by SE, Saga had sequels and was cut short by Namco due to poor sales, Blade didn't need a sequel as the ending wrapped everything up. X sold well, has a clear sequel tease in the ending, and Nintendo and Monolith own the rights to it. There's no reason we wouldn't get a sequel unless Monolith didn't want to make one, but if that was the case they wouldn't have teased a sequel in the post-credits scene.

Very excited, thanks for all your hard work DF.

That's funny, I named Elma's skell basically the same thing, SKELMA (in all caps, I thought it made it look more like a mech name). I felt like a stupid idiot for a little while but it really grew on me.
>>136952626
Other than various synonyms for "Apocalypse" for my custom skells, I've got H.B.I (Police Skell for HB), Alexavator (Excavator for Alexa) and Boze Dozer (just guess)
>>136954881
I had a Mastema named Metatron, then Satan, then I settled on Megidolaon (it's my one-shot zenith cannon build).

So do you think yggy will be available next tuesday? Will the general be alive? I'm away from my wii u and I really want to be able to play with /xbcx/ one last time before we die
>>136956027
Ohmigosh, they are adorable.
What was the site? I might actually get some. Are more characters available yet? Don't feel like getting Gwin or Irina, for example, despite them looking really cool, here.
>>136952053
I'll look into this, I have some passable gear for that, it seems.

That's the best news I've heard all day. I've got something to look forward to now
>>136958634
I wonder how much RP we can take off if we all play at once. Looking forward to once last grind before I fire myself into the sun.
>>136962234
Thanks! Will definetily keep an eye on this.

Let's shoot for a half million rp in one day, as a team

The horns blow hard in April.
Our last Yggy, do you remember?
Counting the days, that are left.
You and I, honking away.I hope I get good enough to make great memories with you all, I feel at home here.
This is highly offtopic but please bear with me.
I've seen a lot of love for Fire Emblem from this general and I always wanted to get into it but the only one I've played somewhat is Sacred Stones, thanks to the ambassador program but not much, might as well ignore that.
Are Awakening/Fates good starting points? How should I aproach them? Like how Fates is three games in one.
I value your opinion lots more than the waifuwarriors at /feg/.
>>136966350
There's a bunch of decent entry points.
FE7, known as just Fire Emblem in the west.
FE9, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance.
FE13, Fire Emblem: Awakening
Awakening is the most similar to FE8 (Sacred Stones), so you may want that one.
The first 6 games, plus the 12th one, haven't been officially released in English, but there's translation patches for all of them.
>>136964853
>implying you need to be good to have fun
I'd carry you with no complaints as much as you need until you're good
>>136966350
Best entry points
7 for the tutorial and generally good objectives
9 for an easier but challenging time
Awakening but don't expect the rest of the series to play like it as its basically a "how strong are tou" dick waving contest
Fates has a unique skill system and gimmicks so Id say save it for a second or third gamw
>>136967614
B-but I don't wanna be a nuisance. You could be getting much more RP with the cool mims.
>>136968152
>implying I care about rp
I've been saying it for months, the only thing I care about is fighting with all my heart until that timer runs out. Be it 20 or 1000 rp, just knowing I got to play with people makes it worth it
>>136952626
Beam Lailah: Durandal
Thermal Mastema: Gungnir
G-Piledriver Amdusias (formally a Z Cannon Mastema): Brionak
Melee beam Amdusias (this build isn't that great): Tyrfing
Evade and support Verus: FiveSevens
Electric Mastema: unnamed, was previously Kamaitachi but I didn't like how the word looked
>>136968826
>Durandal
>Gungnir
For a second I thought you were going with Symphogear references.
>>136954228
Pretty much this. I have four skells at any given time and while my mim always uses the same one, the rest get rotated with whoever is in my party at the time. I also didn't name them.
>>136967042
>>136967841
With all that in mind I think I'll start with FE7, portability is rather good.

I don't think that's out yet though, senpai
>>136968152
>>136968634
Honestly, when you get far enough with all the grinding you stop caring about RP, if you ever cared at all. At this point, I use a pure Assault Rifle build because I find it hilarious. So don't even worry about RP with us, 'cause I don't think any of us really care about how big of an egowe can get in an 8 minute battle.I'm free for any global nemeses if you wanna go at it.
>>136970658
As far as learning the general mechanics? Yeah, 7 isn't a bad choice. Good luck with it.

it's like we got an MMO that stopped before the first expansion pack, due to how they sort of dropped it altogether to work on zelda and their NX project. it would have been nice to have been nice to get a fully produced pack every so many months, but unfortunately what we got is all we'll get.

O-oh.
I want to marry Elma
>>136987113
I want to engage in a polyandryous relationship with Elma and several other men of various species as we all take turns impregnating her, ensuring that she gives birth to a wide variety of crossspecies children.
>>136952626
Maxim (Cross) = Grandier (Urban)
Elma = Jackson (Verus) (Initially assigned to Lin)
Lin = Valia (Lailah) (Initially assigned to Elma)
I'm probably going to put Lin in one of the heavy skells later to better represent her use of Shield weapons. And no I didn't name the Verus based on the player here, I wasn't even aware of this general at first when I thought of it.
>>136987540
Then about 10,000 years later she gets killed by a martial artist with a ponytail

still have the 20 skell, Compact.
then i sold every one that wasn't lvl 50 (and almost all 30 gear for the sake of cleaning up inventory) and i'm going to outfit everyone again soon. they all had their own color coordination, so that'll be fun to do again (not sarcasm, i love that stuff). might even give boze that junker from his affinity mission.
>>136988763
I really should pick Xenogears back up so I can properly appreciate this post. Last thing I got spoiled on wasbasically every 'mysterious identity' character being Fei or some shit.
>>136989036
If you hadn't sold the old skells, you could have copy pasted their color scheme onto the new ones using the garage's Quick Save and Quick Load options

it's fine though, i can deal. i remember enough to make them all unique, and which ones had the matte and which had Gloss. personally, i prefer the gloss, since it not only has the colors pop better, but i think the game has an easier time with it.

So how big is NLA? I don't know how your character's walking speed compares to the average speed of a real human but I timed myself walking along the sidewalk I highlighted here and I clocked in at about 15 minutes and 44 seconds, approximately 4 minutes short of walking a mile give or take.
If you were to cut out all the open areas within the walls of NLA and replace them with the sections of the Residential District in the pic, I'd say you'd be able to fit about 6 of them within the walls with plenty of room to spare clocking in at over 94 minutes assuming my math is correct. Combine that with the remaining area, I'd estimate that it would take somewhere between 110 to 120 minutes to walk along the entire inner wall of NLA. How many square miles does that cover?
>>136992654
>along the entire inner wall
Been a while since I checked but can't you just walk along the upper part of the wall without interruptions on the whole circumference?
>>136993070
Nope, there's a couple of obstacles you have to jump over or walk around to get pass which will speed up and slow you down respectively if you were just walking.
To those of you who play with a female Cross but are straight males, how do you feel about using male party members in your party? When I play as a male character I have no problem using other male characters because it's like they're my comrades, even if the team is three guys and one girl, it's like she's my girl and the two guys are my partners. But if I play as a female character and there's a guy in the party, it's like he's gunning for my girl, especially if he's the only male party member in the party.
does anyone know if melee weapons can have ranged attack plus/boost on them? i have a javelin with appendage crusher (which is great in itself), but i was just trying to see how high ranged attack can go. if anyone has seen any armwear that has both ranged plus and boost at the same time, that's be cool, too.
my current build (which is less than the most i can get, due to using crushers and one thermal plus to help with arts) is 1976, with 2020 total ranged attack.
the absolute maximum i can get right now (which forgoes two crusher augments and the thermal plus) is 2700 ranged with 2744 total ranged.
without ranged probes, i'm guessing that's peak. and i should mention i'm using astral crusader which has 160% ranged attack as it is, since i would have just used a +30% skill anyways, this gets a better outcome (+60%).
>>136994187
I try to avoid them as much as I can.
>>136987113
>you'll never pluck crystal pubes from your teeth
>>136994671
Arms can't drop with both Up and Boost and weapons can only boost their respective from Ranged or Melee.
>>136994671
It's still a beastly amount.
>>136995129

I'm not autistic, so it doesn't bother me.
>>136992654
NLA's just the 'residential' unit or some shit, isn't it? I keep forgetting how fucking huge the Ark Ships really were. Imagine if 30 years from now every major city on earth made a ship that put the Titanic to shame, except it could also go to space as well. Even if it's mostly due to ayy elmao tech it's pretty impressive.
>>136995980
yeah, NLA was just so the people could have a normal residential suite, since it may have taken decades or longer to get where they might need to go. a lot of the niceties were made recently before they crashed though.
the ships were ENORMOUS, but i think super star destroyers are still way larger.
Countless npcs were killed and eaten before you came out of the stasis pod, that's why so many enemies give weapons and armor after you kill them.
>>136997192
i was literally thinking about that earlier, like "wow, these thousands of losers had a lot of good shit!"
...but only if you fund the AMs, then it's like everybody got the even BETTER stuff and still died... not good for business, really. although considering most BLADEs you run into out in the field are unarmed and such from the get-go, i guess it makes sense that they'd do no better with infinite ultra armor and the best weapons.
>>136997403
An NPC in Armor Alley states that the traits on found gear are a byproduct of incredibly weird indigen biological processes.
Basically, that gear wasn't special until it was eaten and everyone is only outfitted with store bough stuff unless they find some special stuff the same way you do.
>>136997192
>>136997403
>>136997813
What if they intentionally hide gear in food then throw it in the wild so monsters eat them so that they can be later reacquired with better traits?
