another really helpful tip for the dungeon is to abuse the infinitely spawning enemies from the crystals. Idk if it works on Hard, but you can kill them with one hit without entering battle, and each kill restores the parties SP a little bit (if you have the mage equipped). Every time you find a crystal, it's basically a free full SP restore.
That's actually a good tip too! But I discovered that you can replicate this by just clearing out the whole map, go back to Akademeia using a safe room or More's Cat, then instantly go back. All enemies would have respawned.
Oh and yes, can confirm that, even on hard, if you're stronger than the enemy, you can kill them just with overworld combat.
Wait it's party MP?! Not just player MP. Noice
If you are gonna do that why not just reduce the difficulty? Seems like wasting your time for no reason
i grinded the demo till lvl 29 cause of this. got 63 of those hero leaf of life's
just maxed merchant and it has drop rate buffs
got about 72 fairy dust for no reason.
For MP management, just put mage on the protagonist. It gives 1 MP per kill or stun on the overworld. when i was on the mines (the one for the dragon), I got to the dragon with almost full MP, and if you need more, just kill a bunch of low level enemies.
That's a great tip! A few people mentioned this too so will definitely add this to the list should we ever make a part 2 to this. Thanks!
Does it go for other party members too? I know it works if they’re also mage but can they stay other archetypes while my MC bashes everything as mage and they regain MP?
@@Pikachu-qr4yb Can confirm it works for the whole party !! You can restore all your mp doing this and spend A LOT more time in dungeons without using expensive mp recover items, is a life saver
@@mariogb9995 Oh dope, so I just have to put MC in Mage? Everyone else can stay their Archs?
@@Pikachu-qr4yb Yes, just the mc, and when you kill enemies with the mage in the overworld it will restore the mp for all the party members
Another point about First Aid:
use it in the menu over the auto recovery function. I found auto spent more MP then was often necessary, it would cast the other heal spells over FA even if the character would’ve been fully healed via FA.
TLDR: Use auto only when you are very low on HP, use FA manually if not.
A tip not mentioned here is to save before appraising since most items when appraised will give you a random item from a list of items and how good the items are differ a lot. For instance while appraising the Rusted Longarm it can turn into a lot of different things from testing it could turn into Iron lance, Silver Lance, Cooling Staff, Iron Greatsword, Silver Claymore. Not sure if there are more but Silver Lance, Cooling Staff and Silver Claymore are all much better then the Iron Lance/Greatsword, the silver versions are a direct upgrade from Iron and the cooling staff is a great staff for mages that boosts ice dmg and each time you appraise the reward is random so you can abuse saving and loading to get the item you want from an appraisal.
Whoa, thanks! I didn't even know about this one! I always thought it was set.
Save scumming is lame but you do you
Sweet! 🥸
received my physical copy early today! gonna restart my save from the demo to min max to the MAX with these tips lol
game comes out tomorrow so I’m excited to learn at least a couple things before playing.
i farmed on the very 1st dungeon and on the optional one on the demo just to Master all Archetype available. Just got my copy delivered today. happy gaming all
Nice tips and tricks!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the vid. Enjoy the game!
For every melee build I would recommend putting most all stats into luck and Agility
Luck increases critical hit and critical rate along with item find and agility increases dodge rate which in this game is absolutely the difference between losing and winning.
Oh nice! That's a good tip!
Clicked here with no hope, but those are pretty good tips actually. 👍
Thanks! Really tried to make one that would be useful to people who like to min-max like me :) Glad it helps!
another tip i will point is to unlock the mage for the protagonist, the mage overworld passive give you mp when you kill enemies in the overworld which will massively help and MP issues(and lessen the need for items like the fruit cordial)
2 Mage/1 Seeker did the dragon for me. Both mages know Blizz for weakness and seeker can heal. Seeker can also use the ice item from the shop to cover if there’s no need to heal
The Seeker is a liability on hard mode since it's weak to fire, and AI seems to constantly target weaknesses. It's doable using one, but definitely not optimal
@@Undertow207 I never bothered to check archetype weaknesses lol. I still managed it on Hard but yes thanks for the extra tip.
This is before I unlocked inheritance too so there wasn’t much to experiment with
I did 2 Mage and a warrior, warrior used ice chunk or heal items, while mages spammed blizz. Attacking him 6 times a turn the first couple turns made it simple
@@Undertow207 The dragon actually has a fixed pattern (1 turn only physical, 1 turn only fire), so you can heal during phys turns and block during fire. Not optimal but I was running low on healing items and Magla so that strat saved my Hard mode Dragon clear.
Best way to level up your party and rank up your archetypes is going to the belega corridor and farming all monsters there. I did grind a bit there and it paid off. Now my party's all level 27 and almost all available archetypes i have, i already got them all to max rank. Its safe to say im ready for the full game release
Any specific farming tips for that dungeon i made it to level 20 & max archetype 😂 im burned out now
Did the same exact thing and stopped at lvl 27. Leaves maybe 3 or 4 archetypes for whichever characters unmastered but after lvl 27 it felt like the exp returns weren't worth it but it also gave me enough currency to buy 2 phantasmal dolls and 2 patriach cloths.
Why would you trivilave the game with that grind? Just play on easy if you want to steamroll everything lol
@@EmperorOfManwhy do idiots like you care so much how others play? I don't grind like them either but so what? You do realise later enemies are gonna catch up level wise anyway right? It's a fucking demo section, not the entire game.
TLDR: Stop being a little whiny cunt and let people play THEIR game how THEY want 😊
Idk what "Trivilave" is but you should figure out why someone grinding in a solo game, let alone a JRPG for that matter (which historically has been a grinding style game), bugs you enough that you felt the need to make a negative comment. Hope you find some tranquility in your playthrough and don't *trivialize* the experience for yourself. Sincerely, have a good one and lighten up buddy 😊
For the dragon, quick little grind and get the entire party with mages. Finish the dragon is 3 turns.
One thing to note is whatever skills you unlock with archetypes can be used regardless of whatever job you have on while in the overworld. This means for example you can still heal even if you have no healers on your team.
I think passive Hero skills won't move/inherite to another Archetype.
@@Moonwalker86 ye passive hero skills wont but everything else will.
I think you can do passive assell their just crazy expensive to inherit.
God I was so glad to hear you can eventually change your archetypes in the menu. That was one of my biggest criticisms of the demo
@@Undertow207 I could do it in the demo too. equipment > change archetype.
@@Pikachu-qr4yb I completely missed that lol
Honestly not sure if it's a demo thing but I did notice that in the mines but I also noticed you lose that ability later on for some reason.
Great video maestro, thanks for the tips!
I didn't want to attack the sleeping dragon. I figured he was protecting the crystals from potential enemies :)
fair enough! haha
Same here, can we go back perchance?
i played on hard, used healer in outside combat to regan health to full and put brawler on all my party, mp became a none issue
oooh! that's a nice tip!
Why not play on easy instead of spending all that time on grinding your HP MP back?
@@EmperorOfMan honestly I did have that thought, but the catharsis of finguring out little solutions like this was very very gratifying
I also got really good at overworld combat, you can completely save MP by just refusing to Squad and just continuously knocking enemies around
@@UnGeekPH especially since most the skeleton things are weak to brawlers attack, the multi hit team attack with two brawlers and increased crit ratio completely folded the prologue final boss
@@joohnnykuz5327 yup! Brawler was really strong especially in the early parts
learn mage, when you get to a level where you can one shot monsters without going in to a battle it will give you SP back, grind on the monsters the cyrstals spawn in the necromancer dungeon and have full SP :)
Hey i got a question is there multiple endings and if so how to get true ending
Great video, every tip was helpful
Thanks! Glad the video helped!
Where can I find the Information Broker? or how can I find him? since I have an Idea where he ism it's more of when does he come out?
You'll find him in the Honeybee inn.
Oh man, I didn't even consider fighting that dragon in the cave during my run of the demo. Since I plan on carrying over my data, I wonder if I can go back and fight it before completing the necromancer.
I am going to redo the whole entire prologue
I redo the demo and defeated the dragon.
First Atlus game and I have no idea how the calendar system works.
This game's a really good one to enter the ATLUS rpgs. haha So Calendar system just means that you have a deadline to clear a specific dungeon or to do certain quests or its game over.
TLDR, in a day, you can usually do only 2 things - 1 during the day, 1 during the night and these can range from doing side quests, raising a bond with one of your followers, or raising one of your stats. Dungeons are basically things you can enter and return to over multiple days but you wanna do them in as short a time as possible because, each day you're in the dungeon is a day you could have used for other activities.
If that's too much of an explanation, the game by itself does a good job of explaining the system. Hope you enjoy your first ATLUS RPG!
I assume it's the case but just to make sure, is it like Persona in that if you beat your goal before the deadline, you'll get the remaining time until the deadline as freetime to do whatever you want? So if I beat the dungeon in 2 days, I'll still have 8 days to faff about instead of the plot pushing forward immediately after?
Yup! If you beat dungeons early, you can use the remaining time however you want. The story progresses after the main quest deadline expires :)
Are there any benefits for playing on hard
Honestly, not really. It's just really for people who want that satisfying balance of difficulty while playing.
I'm a bit of a completionist so when I play on Normal difficulty, I usually start getting too overpowered really early and combat becomes a bit dull. So Hard (especially on ATLUS games) kinda hits that nice balance.
I already skipped the dragon damn
time to restart before it comes out tomorrow
@@meow4meplsdiscord The sword is kinda worth it ngl
Did anyone else end up skipping the dragon because of how they were hyping it up? I thought it was gonna some kind of NG+ boss 😂
I felt this haha but that red text saying there was an item for beating him just got me too curious hahaha
It just came out how did u beat it already
We reviewed the game! Feel free to check our review via the link we placed in the video's description. :)
Where did he say he beat it
it's not an MMO, play the way you want
Absolutely! People should play to enjoy however they want. The tips are really just for people who wanna min-max a bit or are having a bit of difficulty.
Don’t buy this game wait a year or so for the complete edition
Yeah man just tell me how to beat the game so I don't have to do any critical thinking myself. Thanks man.
@HiLoMusic It’s a gaming channel giving tips you moron. If you’re so sensitive get off of the internet snowflake.
Very detailed tips video, Rob! Thank you for this!
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it and hope it helps with your game!
grinding snakes in mines drop mp pots if i remember
Ohhh good to know! Did it drop fairly frequent enough?
@@UnGeekPH not too frequent but still was able to get 6 to 8 maybe before I just went to beat dragon
@@potatocat112 oh, thats not bad actually. Will take note! thanks!
@@UnGeekPH figured I shared it hope it helps ppl
