I spent so many hours of my life playing this for 3 years straight, became one of the top players in my server, made so many good friends and memories, if this game does become as active as it was back in the day i would love to get back into it then. Can say this was the best mmo i played, its a shame that it shutdown.
I’m not really much of an MMO fan, but I’m heavily considering this one. I’m finally getting around to playing through the majority of SMT games after being a Persona fan for 3 years, and I’m loving the series! I finished III, IV, and IV Apocalypse. I’m working on Strange Journey, then it’s off to Raidou 1&2, then DDS 1&2. After that I might go to either Devil Survivor 1&2, or this. I can’t believe I’m not burnt out yet! Hard to believe it’s only been 3 weeks since I started this marathon.
Thanks for this! This game taught me more about economics when I played it like 10 years ago than my school was back then lol. Now I just picked it back up and it's just as awesome as I remember
Heya everyone who stumbles across this video in the future. Unfortunately, Atlus chose to sue one of the smaller private servers on the scene, which caused ReIMAGINE to permanently close for their own protection. It really sucks. Atlus really sucks. I'd recommend you go watch my latest video if you want to know how to play this game in 2023. Thank you everyone for all your kind comments over the years, and my apologies for not making many videos hahaha. We had a good run with ReIMAGINE, I hope they can sort their stuff out and bring it back to us in the future! - Love, Darkpawra
Really appreciate this post man. Love this game so much. Quick question for you. Dont know if you know but Comp_decrypt doesnt seem to be working? Any thoughts? I think its because my client doesnt match the server version. Is there a way to get it to update?
@@steventyler3582 Sorry!! I didn't see this until now. Comp_decrypt isn't really needed to set up a basic server, you can just skip that step and change the IP in the ImagineClient.dat and that'll do it. But if you wanted to know anyway, here is the instructions. The actual way to decrypt and edit webaccess.sdat is to make a new folder somewhere, copy the following files into it: - comp_decrypt.exe - comp_encrypt.exe - webaccess.sdat - ImagineClient.exe Then run a cmd as admin, CD to the new folder you made and run this command, "comp_decrypt webaccess.sdat webaccess.dat" This will decrypt the file and let you edit it, once you're done you can pack it back up using this command, "comp_decrypt webaccess.dat webaccess.sdat" Then copy the newly edited webaccess.sdat back to the main folder, replacing the old one in the process.
Man this game brings back good memories. I played this game during my highschool years. I met a random player that taught me the game and had me join his guild. He gave me his stuff before retiring. i can still remember the item was "Blade of the Thunder God". I used that weapon through out the years and was still in the guild everyone was just reliving old memories of the game till shutdown.
@@PaidLead3333 That's really a question for the generalhelp channel on the Reimagine discord, but I can try. Are you opening the imagineupdater? What does the error say and when does it pop up?
@@Darkpawra it will say the code execution cannot proceed because qt5webenginewidgets.dll was not found it says the same thing for Qt5Network.dll and it will say qt5gui.dll And qt5widgets.dll it says that error for those things
I don't know how long it's been since I stopped playing cause stuff was moving in my life... But now I'm installing it, and excited to play again 😊 I will definitely spread the word wherever I can 👍🏻 I mostly used to just play by myself, cause I don't know how to interact in the moment.. But still really fun 😊
@@mrchill6571 I'm not familiar with Chrome OS. There's probably a way, you just need to google hard enough. I imagine the solution would be to emulate a Windows OS.
@@maddiehertz4090 I'll admit, at first I was suspicious of Re:Imagine (I was mostly paranoid that it was actually just something "fake" intended to steal information), but I did eventually give it a try and, not gonna lie, I almost started to tear up to be able to play the game again, I'd missed it that much. Imagine was by far the best MMO (Free or Pay-To-Play) I had ever been lucky enough to be a part of, and while I was playing it had one of the nicest player communities I'd ever been fortunate enough to be a part of. To date, the only other MMO I've ever played with a comparatively similar community as far as how nice and helpful people are, would be FF XIV. In the 6-7 total months I've played FF XIV, I've only ever run into "toxic" players on two occasions. The first time, it was a tank who repeatedly pulled too many mobs for the rest of us to keep up with, and then every time we wiped he would get mad at *us* for "not doing our jobs right" even when the rest of the party (it was a "Light Party" instance, so there were only 4 of us in total) kept telling him that he was pulling *too many* mobs and we simply couldn't keep up with it. He ignored us, even when our *HEALER* outright stated that they couldn't keep up with that many mobs and that much damage piling on him all at once....so it got to the point that every time he ran in to pull mobs, we wouldn't follow, we'd just stand there and watch while he got swarmed and died (repeatedly) until he finally rage quit (at which point I asked someone in my Free Company [basically the FF XIV version of guilds or clans] to pop in and tank for us, and they were happy to do so, and the run went just fine once my FC buddy hopped in, the team worked like a well-oiled machine, which proved that the sole reason we were wiping previously was entirely because of that sorry excuse for a Tank). And yet, in Imagine, on many occasions I would see high level players happily running lower level players through dungeon runs, and just all-around being nice people.
Give Re:Imagine a try. It's worth it, and I played the original English version. Re:Imagine is 100% free, and their final server wipe was back in October, so now is as good a time as any to get back into it. Sure there's the occasional bit of un-translated Japanese text, but as time goes on, that's getting less and less common. There are even some things that I don't even remember from the original, for instance upon reaching Act 2, the guy in the Cathedral of Shadows will give you a free "Quickly Produced" version of either Hathor, Nekomata, or Kikuri-Hime (your choice), and all 3 of them are absurdly strong, especially for starting at level 1! They all have at least 500 HP even at level 1, and they have a permanent +600% EXP gain increase, so they level up very quickly as well. With the "Vivian" NPC around, it also becomes very easy to level up yourself and your demons once you complete her quest to give her 50 Golden Apples (you can earn 15 of them every time you complete a Bronze run of the Suginami Tunnels, and that run is easy enough that it can be soloed even at a relatively low level, as long as you have access to Fire skills....and Guns).
Dark you can combine the selling part with the allinhment city at one scene, Also you can go back from babel into home 3 by using same tech which is click the door behind green girl npc and click the door again.
That must have been a horrible experience, couldn't even imagine if my fav games closed tbh. At least the dedicated players brought it back, but a shame to lose all your progress on official.
Man, I used to play this game back then, I miss it so much. I still remember being online watching the shutdown countdown. I wanted to ask, how do you get "endgame" equipments in this server? Also, what patch is it now compared to the original? Fun fact: the name "Sesshou" in the wiki link is the in -game name of my clanmate who saved the entire thing ( I wonder if he still plays on the new server)
That's awesome that you know the Sesshou! I hope the recently created reimagine wiki can live up to the original one. As for getting items: it's the old FC system that you're probably familiar with, but instead of spending real cash to pull, you spend differing amounts of CP. Take a look at my FC video for more info. Of course there are also a few end game items that come from game content, like Abyss stuff, masa weps. But the bulk of it comes only from FC, or people selling their FC pulls in the bazaar. On mondays in my time zone, Quartz Silvers are boosted to 500cp an hour, and with most FC packs averaging about 5k CP to fully pull it, it doesn't take long to get what you need, and just sell off the extra pulls you dont want. Regarding which patch, the server files that anyone can host is fully updated with every piece of content ever made, up to the closure of the JPN servers. ReImagine however purposely withheld some content so they could rebalance it and release later. Recently Wonder Underground was released in a balanced form. I believe Colo is one of the only main pieces of content missing at this point. They have also released their own custom content unique to this server.
I wouldn't recommend doing Sesshou but using the wiki: reimagine link that the community discord provides. Otherwise, I wish there were more videos like this....most just help out on General Help chat in the community discord
am.. hello a little question like take the devil 3d model for make stl for impresion 3d you know what carpect can take this? dont know how call extension for that archives, but like conver stl for harpy and empuse
today i reached level 20, used many reports to unlock destruction magic class 5, i am still in act 3! wounded Cerberus is still with me! and honestly, probably will not advance in the story and will keep grinding until i hit 25, so that snakeman spares me the silly level 25 cap requirement. currently i have cerberus, nekomata, brave gram, as my current party stables. i need to get a demon with recarm, to replace cerberus to move on, i have been grinding the first dungeon bronze for exp and money, since the game refuses to let me into silver level, and also finding quests is almost impossible .. most likely because i have not progressed in the main storyline yet, gladly the game is well populated so far! and i'd like to know how do i unlock ... curse of the wretched, enhancement, magic bullet, and basically what do i need to make sure of, so i make a pure magic based character? .. i'm also building my CP slowly..
How do I install the game on Windows 10? I'm on the Discord server but I can only see the announcements and the rules-read-me-first, Kanji and role-assignment channels. No other channels seem to exist so I'm having a hard time reaching out for instructions.
There's a download link on the Reimagine website, it shouldn't be any different for Win10. As for the discord, did you type out the ".iam DemonBuster" thing into the role-assignment channel? Although I know when I was rejoining the discord a few weeks ago it seemed like the bot that automatically deals with role assignment was broken, so I had to wait a few hours for an admin to manually assign me. Sucks but technical issue, whatcha gonna do. Please let me know if you're still having issues with installation, I'm here to help :D
how long did it take you to reach 94? also that gear you have, from where? also how can i search for Snowguard? the only option i find in home 3 is recruit members. is Snowguard still active? btw in this video, did you reach your desired shotmage? as in end game build?
I'm a freshly installed new player, I've been endlessly browsing the wiki and Discord for ideas on how I want to build my character. What would you recommend in terms of DPS?
So uh, Downloaded Reimagine and been trying to boot it from the launcher for a Month. It says Loggin server under maintenance and it doesn't let me input anything in the logging. Is this normal?
- In the updater, click Settings - Click "I want to break my client" - Make sure 'Disable Web Authentication' is ticked on and 'Enable Account Dump' is ticked off. With all respect, you could have asked about your issue in the reimagine discord, they would have resolved it immediately as it is a very common issue.
howdy .. i reached 26 last night, still at act 3, trying to get a demon with recarm to replace my cerberus, also you forgot that .. according to what i heard, mages are best in LAW, gunners are best in CHOAS, and anything goes for NEUTRAL. .. or so i heard
Before I start, could you reply to this comment to let me know you've seen it. I'll be posting a lot of links, and UA-cam tends to block comments with links in them. 1. Go to reimagine.online/ and sign up for an account. 2. Find the download link on that website. It's along the top. 3. In the files you downloaded, run ImagineUpdate.exe. 4. Once it's finished patching, do everything this image tells you to do: puu.sh/IBq39/243012ce75.png 5. I would recommend switching it to 'windowed' mode in the settings because fullscreen is prone to crashes. 6. You're done, press PLAY GAME and choose ReIMAGINE. Log in with the same details you signed up your account for. If you have any issues, you can contact me, but you're best off going to the ReIMAGINE discord which I've linked in the description of this video. It is their job to help :)
Yes, there are a few viable hydrid builds. Gunners have access to magical bullets that scale with both your gun stat and spell stat. Melee has access to slide-like attacks that deal magic damage, scaling on both melee and spell stats. For demon builds, not so much. You have 16 slots of demon moves and passives, the meta dictates that most of those slots are taken up by generic damage boosting and defensive skills that go on every demon. You're usually left with ~6 slots that you can do whatever you want with, and that's just not enough to split between two combat styles. Of course, this is just if you wanna be a meta sheep. There's plenty of room for experimentation in this game, lots of skill trees hardly anyone touches. To answer the question, yes it's viable.
This is your best bet: wiki.reimagine.online/Expertise#Chain_Expertise There isn't going to be a guide about chains specifically, but all build guides should include which chain expertises they go for. Alot of them are pretty useless, the main ones are Magic Fist, Mitama Growth Science, Curse of the Wretched, Enhancement, Magic Bullet and Regal Presence. The rest are either non-combat focused, or so unimpactful that they aren't worth the expertise investment.
Generally tickets are functionally the same for both genders. I can only think of two cases where gender matters, 1. There's a fusion bonus set that has like 5 pieces if you're a male, but only two if you're female, so it's a convenience thing. 2. There's a head piece that only males can wear, it hasn't been released yet but it might in the future, I believe it's the only source of Null Shock, so if you're a female you're SOL. My advice, pick the gender you like, it hardly matters.
For sure. Even if there aren't any conpletely new players, it doesn't take long to get decently geared, especially if you get carried by a clan. But I think there is a good funnel of new players coming in.
Like to host your own server and play alone? This game is designed to be played with others, it won't be a great experience solo. But if you still want to, here's a guide to get the local server working. pastebin.com/Q6pdz8Hu You should direct any questions regarding that topic to the reIMAGINE discord, as it's been a long time since I set my local server up and I barely remember how I did it.
After Act 17, you unlock WILDCAT mode, which is available on all the main dungeons. These are demon-only runs, you play as your demon. At the end of said runs, some Soul Points are added to your demon. You can view how many soul points are on a demon on the Status page of that demon.
@@rafaeleuzebio3090 I don't think it's safe to write it out, even censored. But on the Internet, 'CP' is a common abbreviation for a type of illegal p**n.
how do you get the red item you use to tp i feel like that would be a nice tip because walkign is seriously a bitch to do i might save up some makka to rent a 30 day bike but man it is very annoying i kinda just started at lv 15 now got some beginner gear from the gamebeling stuff went for gunner since i like to shoot stuff my ultimate goal is to get mara, it is just gonna take a long ass time also are there any dungeons alter that give you a buttload of reports like you had in your inv 30 is not much from beginner and i kinda need an houreglass (300 is soo expensive) since i did not know vit would give you only 1def every 10 so i waisted 10 points which could have gone to speed
The red teleport item is covered at 3:52. You can refer to this chart to see how much CP a dungeon gives: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QQattZHbKpelRqQNzs_NsOjuD0CcqFw2H8G3wDB1zl8/edit?usp=sharing For each day of the week, a different dungeon gives a boosted amount of CP, Shibuya Quartz and Nakano Ruins are very good for CP when they are boosted. And as for the hourglass, DO NOT buy the 300CP one, buy the 5CP one in the COMP Shop (the same place you buy the red teleport item.) Way cheaper.
@@DarkpawraFound it in the cp shop as you said man you can even get pearls there for a 100 macca ea that is soo cheap thanks for the info the red thread thing is the next thing i might save up for it seems to be really usefull Thank you very much i love this game already and man the chart you send me is usefull i did not even knew there was a boost on friday for the tunnel 1 run is literly 5 normal runs on bronze it includes the lvels too that is nice good to know that i can run silver at 20 might ge tme faster to trying to recruit that nekomata altho i could fuse it too either way thank you for the tips it was really helpfull especially the donation one since i could not fidn the hcaracter to donate to to get to chaos as well as that glitch.
@@ROBDEWAND No worries, remember that Friday in my time may not be Friday in your time. The NPC that converts Yagiya Reports to CP can tell you which dungeon is being boosted.
@@Darkpawra it starts on thursday my time at 16pm here so basicly friday either way it is helpfull btw the glitch doesnt work anymore sorta like it is 1 way now you can go to babel but from babel you can still go to homeIII so i have my home at babel so i can warp to homeIII and use the homestone back to babel regardless i think they tried to fix it at least but messed it up harder and then they gave up. so far got to 44 by spamming too many tunnel dungeons for the cp i needed to guaranteely get the jellybean men plugin items from destiny. First goal on the list is to get illusion mara to eventually have a real mara endgame.
@@Darkpawra it's okay. thanks for the tip anyway. what do you play now? just curious. perhaps it's now my turn to build myself into a mage character and try to reach as strong as i can. i already know that i will also one day leave the game, but until then let's enjoy it!
Yeah, I know a few late game meleers who do well. It's very unpopular though. Upside to that is the melee gear is always the cheapest and commonly sold.
came seeking tips and hints for questing, dungeons, demons, equipments, etc. all i saw through the first 5 minutes is all about cash.... i am new into the megaten games world, and i am interested in this game, but all this talk about cash is making be worry.
Bit of an overexaggeration, I only really touched on that subject. If you played back on the live servers, you'd know how horrible it was to play F2P, so I felt it needed to be understood that this private server doesn't have microtransactions of any kind. If you're after deeper guides on classes, gear and demons, head to either the Reimagine wiki or the Reimagine discord. They're both linked in the description. They answer any questions you have, and they have a channel full of assorted guides. Personally, to get the most out of this game, you should get out there and explore it for yourself ^^
@@Darkpawra i played lots of MMORPGs through my life, i spent 9 years playing them jumping from one to the other, i consider myself a new fan to the SMT games, and i'm not talking about persona spin off only either, but rather the main parent games series as well. my style in MMORPGs is ranged mage normally, will that work with reimagine? YES i am considering to give it a try and even spread the word to enjoy it with more players! summoning games are among my favorites! and when i played persona 3 FES i loved the amount of creature to summon and help me out! what is even greater, in reimagine i can walk around with them! it's almost like a dream come true! so there is no more transactions in the private server? i hope that builds are balanced, i will check the guides you made, first. and then i shall decide whether or not to join the demon tamers online.
@@TrueInvisible No microtransactions, that's what I said in the video. If they did, Atlus would sue them. Builds are decently balanced, and ranged mage is one of the best so no problems there. Regarding which MMO you play...follow your heart I guess lmao
@@Darkpawra as for the builds, which is the most recommended, and the more avoided? and for demons how many at once can you own? how can i know which are better and how to reach the best ones?
Vanilla.... Maybe Aeria Vanilla. Re was good in early days before the mass nurfing. Yes re is the most popular server. but for ppl that have play'ed the original cave vanilla Re is a major turn off for them Cave Vets.
I'm only aware of one nerf, the masa wep rate. I'm not sure how you compare any of these private servers to the live servers, considering the whole time the game was live progression was based off of how much money you earned in real life.

That must have been a horrible experience, couldn't even imagine if my fav games closed tbh.
At least the dedicated players brought it back, but a shame to lose all your progress on official.
@@Darkpawra yes that is true though only found the private server tonight so in process of downloading it. Then comes the pain of relearning it all
guild mom approved :)
genuinely really fking miss this game
That's a good reason to start playing again xD
@@Darkpawra Installing as we speak :D
@@veibz2510 hell yeah!
Man, this video just makes me sad now...
Man, I used to play this game back then, I miss it so much. I still remember being online watching the shutdown countdown.
I wanted to ask, how do you get "endgame" equipments in this server? Also, what patch is it now compared to the original?
Fun fact: the name "Sesshou" in the wiki link is the in -game name of my clanmate who saved the entire thing ( I wonder if he still plays on the new server)
That's awesome that you know the Sesshou! I hope the recently created reimagine wiki can live up to the original one.
As for getting items: it's the old FC system that you're probably familiar with, but instead of spending real cash to pull, you spend differing amounts of CP. Take a look at my FC video for more info. Of course there are also a few end game items that come from game content, like Abyss stuff, masa weps. But the bulk of it comes only from FC, or people selling their FC pulls in the bazaar.
On mondays in my time zone, Quartz Silvers are boosted to 500cp an hour, and with most FC packs averaging about 5k CP to fully pull it, it doesn't take long to get what you need, and just sell off the extra pulls you dont want.
Regarding which patch, the server files that anyone can host is fully updated with every piece of content ever made, up to the closure of the JPN servers. ReImagine however purposely withheld some content so they could rebalance it and release later. Recently Wonder Underground was released in a balanced form. I believe Colo is one of the only main pieces of content missing at this point. They have also released their own custom content unique to this server.
I wouldn't recommend doing Sesshou but using the wiki: reimagine link that the community discord provides.
Otherwise, I wish there were more videos like this....most just help out on General Help chat in the community discord
Yep agree. Re wiki didn't really exist at the time I made this video. I thought I added it to the descriltion but I guess not.
What a coincidence! I happen to be in your guild.
Whaddup Sad Larry ;)
@@Darkpawra haha sup
am.. hello a little question like take the devil 3d model for make stl for impresion 3d you know what carpect can take this? dont know how call extension for that archives, but like conver stl for harpy and empuse
I don't know anything about modeling for this game, sorry.
so when the game went private server, everything kind of became easier! ad more player-friendly kind of. nice!
today i reached level 20, used many reports to unlock destruction magic class 5, i am still in act 3! wounded Cerberus is still with me!
and honestly, probably will not advance in the story and will keep grinding until i hit 25, so that snakeman spares me the silly level 25 cap requirement.
currently i have cerberus, nekomata, brave gram, as my current party stables. i need to get a demon with recarm, to replace cerberus to move on, i have been grinding the first dungeon bronze for exp and money, since the game refuses to let me into silver level, and also finding quests is almost impossible .. most likely because i have not progressed in the main storyline yet,
gladly the game is well populated so far! and i'd like to know how do i unlock ...
curse of the wretched, enhancement, magic bullet, and basically what do i need to make sure of, so i make a pure magic based character? .. i'm also building my CP slowly..
How do I install the game on Windows 10?
I'm on the Discord server but I can only see the announcements and the rules-read-me-first, Kanji and role-assignment channels.
No other channels seem to exist so I'm having a hard time reaching out for instructions.
There's a download link on the Reimagine website, it shouldn't be any different for Win10. As for the discord, did you type out the ".iam DemonBuster" thing into the role-assignment channel? Although I know when I was rejoining the discord a few weeks ago it seemed like the bot that automatically deals with role assignment was broken, so I had to wait a few hours for an admin to manually assign me. Sucks but technical issue, whatcha gonna do.
Please let me know if you're still having issues with installation, I'm here to help :D
how long did it take you to reach 94? also that gear you have, from where?
also how can i search for Snowguard? the only option i find in home 3 is recruit members. is Snowguard still active? btw in this video, did you reach your desired shotmage? as in end game build?
in normal SMT games i prefer chaos alignment, which one is the more recommended in this game?
Any tips gor mege class? I still on early game found out some demon no weakness on megis, early what strong melee demon i can find ?
What country is the server hosted?
I hope I can get a decent ping here in SEA....
America, but for some reason this game feels fine to play even with high ping. You'll get used to it.
I'm a freshly installed new player, I've been endlessly browsing the wiki and Discord for ideas on how I want to build my character. What would you recommend in terms of DPS?
Would you be doing a livestream on megaton soon
So uh, Downloaded Reimagine and been trying to boot it from the launcher for a Month. It says Loggin server under maintenance and it doesn't let me input anything in the logging.
Is this normal?
- In the updater, click Settings
- Click "I want to break my client"
- Make sure 'Disable Web Authentication' is ticked on and 'Enable Account Dump' is ticked off.
With all respect, you could have asked about your issue in the reimagine discord, they would have resolved it immediately as it is a very common issue.
howdy .. i reached 26 last night, still at act 3, trying to get a demon with recarm to replace my cerberus, also you forgot that .. according to what i heard, mages are best in LAW, gunners are best in CHOAS, and anything goes for NEUTRAL. .. or so i heard
Is it possible to play again today 2022? How do I set up? I really wanna play but I haven't found any solid installation guides : (
Before I start, could you reply to this comment to let me know you've seen it. I'll be posting a lot of links, and UA-cam tends to block comments with links in them.
1. Go to reimagine.online/ and sign up for an account.
2. Find the download link on that website. It's along the top.
3. In the files you downloaded, run ImagineUpdate.exe.
4. Once it's finished patching, do everything this image tells you to do: puu.sh/IBq39/243012ce75.png
5. I would recommend switching it to 'windowed' mode in the settings because fullscreen is prone to crashes.
6. You're done, press PLAY GAME and choose ReIMAGINE. Log in with the same details you signed up your account for.
If you have any issues, you can contact me, but you're best off going to the ReIMAGINE discord which I've linked in the description of this video. It is their job to help :)
@@Darkpawra Thanks I also taken liberty to screenshot this because of the fact I couldn't remember anything for the life of me lol
Are hybrid builds viable in this game? Like using both melee and magic???
Yes, there are a few viable hydrid builds. Gunners have access to magical bullets that scale with both your gun stat and spell stat. Melee has access to slide-like attacks that deal magic damage, scaling on both melee and spell stats. For demon builds, not so much. You have 16 slots of demon moves and passives, the meta dictates that most of those slots are taken up by generic damage boosting and defensive skills that go on every demon. You're usually left with ~6 slots that you can do whatever you want with, and that's just not enough to split between two combat styles.
Of course, this is just if you wanna be a meta sheep. There's plenty of room for experimentation in this game, lots of skill trees hardly anyone touches. To answer the question, yes it's viable.
can you please shed some light on this whole chain expertise thing? like are there any good guides for choosing and promoting them?
This is your best bet: wiki.reimagine.online/Expertise#Chain_Expertise
There isn't going to be a guide about chains specifically, but all build guides should include which chain expertises they go for.
Alot of them are pretty useless, the main ones are Magic Fist, Mitama Growth Science, Curse of the Wretched, Enhancement, Magic Bullet and Regal Presence.
The rest are either non-combat focused, or so unimpactful that they aren't worth the expertise investment.
ILLOOOOOO LEON DER BETI :D 10:13
I failed to translate this. :P
About using buffs quicker is there a way to do this when your demon has the buffs? cause the shortcut doesnt seen to work when im controling him.
Hmm I see what you mean. I can't find a way to do it, even with both skill target hotkeys assigned. Most people just use the AoE buffs though.
Do female characters have a stat bonus? I vaguely remember them sometimes having bonus gear in ticket sets
Generally tickets are functionally the same for both genders. I can only think of two cases where gender matters, 1. There's a fusion bonus set that has like 5 pieces if you're a male, but only two if you're female, so it's a convenience thing. 2. There's a head piece that only males can wear, it hasn't been released yet but it might in the future, I believe it's the only source of Null Shock, so if you're a female you're SOL. My advice, pick the gender you like, it hardly matters.
@@Darkpawra Thanks for the info and fast reply. Does the same apply to the Spiritual infusion of ticket sets?
@@cwl6050 I'm not sure if this is what you mean but, when you SI you do need to fuse pieces of the same gender together.
@@Darkpawra Thanks dude, really helpful video and thx for the extra info.
will find people to play with if starting now?
For sure. Even if there aren't any conpletely new players, it doesn't take long to get decently geared, especially if you get carried by a clan. But I think there is a good funnel of new players coming in.
How to play on a local server? Interested in a playthrough, thx in advance :)
Like to host your own server and play alone? This game is designed to be played with others, it won't be a great experience solo. But if you still want to, here's a guide to get the local server working.
pastebin.com/Q6pdz8Hu
You should direct any questions regarding that topic to the reIMAGINE discord, as it's been a long time since I set my local server up and I barely remember how I did it.
How does your demon get soulpoints? Thx
After Act 17, you unlock WILDCAT mode, which is available on all the main dungeons. These are demon-only runs, you play as your demon.
At the end of said runs, some Soul Points are added to your demon. You can view how many soul points are on a demon on the Status page of that demon.
I really feel like they should've chosen a better name for currency than "cp" . . .
That thought runs through my head often as well :|
what's the problem with cp? it's the way you proununce? My native language isn't english so...
@@rafaeleuzebio3090 I don't think it's safe to write it out, even censored. But on the Internet, 'CP' is a common abbreviation for a type of illegal p**n.
@@Darkpawra oh...got it now...
is your clan still recruiting? I just started on the reimagine server recently and looking for a community
Sure is, shoot me a message on discord and I'll get you sorted out. Darkpawra#2624
how do you get the red item you use to tp i feel like that would be a nice tip because walkign is seriously a bitch to do i might save up some makka to rent a 30 day bike but man it is very annoying i kinda just started at lv 15 now got some beginner gear from the gamebeling stuff went for gunner since i like to shoot stuff my ultimate goal is to get mara, it is just gonna take a long ass time also are there any dungeons alter that give you a buttload of reports like you had in your inv 30 is not much from beginner and i kinda need an houreglass (300 is soo expensive) since i did not know vit would give you only 1def every 10 so i waisted 10 points which could have gone to speed
The red teleport item is covered at 3:52.
You can refer to this chart to see how much CP a dungeon gives: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QQattZHbKpelRqQNzs_NsOjuD0CcqFw2H8G3wDB1zl8/edit?usp=sharing
For each day of the week, a different dungeon gives a boosted amount of CP, Shibuya Quartz and Nakano Ruins are very good for CP when they are boosted.
And as for the hourglass, DO NOT buy the 300CP one, buy the 5CP one in the COMP Shop (the same place you buy the red teleport item.) Way cheaper.
@@DarkpawraFound it in the cp shop as you said man you can even get pearls there for a 100 macca ea that is soo cheap thanks for the info the red thread thing is the next thing i might save up for it seems to be really usefull Thank you very much i love this game already and man the chart you send me is usefull i did not even knew there was a boost on friday for the tunnel 1 run is literly 5 normal runs on bronze it includes the lvels too that is nice good to know that i can run silver at 20 might ge tme faster to trying to recruit that nekomata altho i could fuse it too either way thank you for the tips it was really helpfull especially the donation one since i could not fidn the hcaracter to donate to to get to chaos as well as that glitch.
@@ROBDEWAND No worries, remember that Friday in my time may not be Friday in your time. The NPC that converts Yagiya Reports to CP can tell you which dungeon is being boosted.
@@Darkpawra it starts on thursday my time at 16pm here so basicly friday either way it is helpfull btw the glitch doesnt work anymore sorta like it is 1 way now you can go to babel but from babel you can still go to homeIII so i have my home at babel so i can warp to homeIII and use the homestone back to babel regardless i think they tried to fix it at least but messed it up harder and then they gave up.
so far got to 44 by spamming too many tunnel dungeons for the cp i needed to guaranteely get the jellybean men plugin items from destiny. First goal on the list is to get illusion mara to eventually have a real mara endgame.
I tried playing the game but I’m getting a bad image error.
Can you describe in more detail the error you're getting?
@@Darkpawra I'm getting an 0x3c000020 error.

@@joshuafoote5144 Hit me up on Discord. Darkpawra#9815 I have a fix for you.
do you still play? can i join your clan? i just began!
At this point, I've moved on from this game. Sorry bud.
@@Darkpawra it's okay. thanks for the tip anyway. what do you play now? just curious. perhaps it's now my turn to build myself into a mage character and try to reach as strong as i can. i already know that i will also one day leave the game, but until then let's enjoy it!
@@TrueInvisible Back to Runescape. Snowguard clan still lives, if you see them around, don't be shy to ask if there's a slot available.
@@Darkpawra many thanks!
is the melee class still viable?
Yeah, I know a few late game meleers who do well. It's very unpopular though. Upside to that is the melee gear is always the cheapest and commonly sold.
I'd rather see an Imagine 2 than another Final Fantasy 14 DLC
came seeking tips and hints for questing, dungeons, demons, equipments, etc.
all i saw through the first 5 minutes is all about cash.... i am new into the megaten games world, and i am interested in this game, but all this talk about cash is making be worry.
Bit of an overexaggeration, I only really touched on that subject. If you played back on the live servers, you'd know how horrible it was to play F2P, so I felt it needed to be understood that this private server doesn't have microtransactions of any kind.
If you're after deeper guides on classes, gear and demons, head to either the Reimagine wiki or the Reimagine discord. They're both linked in the description. They answer any questions you have, and they have a channel full of assorted guides. Personally, to get the most out of this game, you should get out there and explore it for yourself ^^
@@Darkpawra i played lots of MMORPGs through my life, i spent 9 years playing them jumping from one to the other, i consider myself a new fan to the SMT games, and i'm not talking about persona spin off only either, but rather the main parent games series as well.
my style in MMORPGs is ranged mage normally, will that work with reimagine? YES i am considering to give it a try and even spread the word to enjoy it with more players! summoning games are among my favorites! and when i played persona 3 FES i loved the amount of creature to summon and help me out! what is even greater, in reimagine i can walk around with them! it's almost like a dream come true! so there is no more transactions in the private server? i hope that builds are balanced, i will check the guides you made, first. and then i shall decide whether or not to join the demon tamers online.
@@TrueInvisible No microtransactions, that's what I said in the video. If they did, Atlus would sue them. Builds are decently balanced, and ranged mage is one of the best so no problems there. Regarding which MMO you play...follow your heart I guess lmao
@@Darkpawra as for the builds, which is the most recommended, and the more avoided? and for demons how many at once can you own? how can i know which are better and how to reach the best ones?
Vanilla.... Maybe Aeria Vanilla. Re was good in early days before the mass nurfing. Yes re is the most popular server. but for ppl that have play'ed the original cave vanilla Re is a major turn off for them Cave Vets.
I'm only aware of one nerf, the masa wep rate. I'm not sure how you compare any of these private servers to the live servers, considering the whole time the game was live progression was based off of how much money you earned in real life.
