Another tip! Hitting the Action Button with Garl just as he is about pull out an Item out of his Bag with Nourish, upgrades the Heal! 12:25
Oh crap! Nice! Massive Thank You! I gotta Pin your Comment.
EDIT: It upgrades to a Sandwich!
Thanks! I was trying to figure out the timing for this.
Nice! Thank you for that info!!
The worst time ever battling the Ant Bruisers, especially when they use magic to split and multiply. It seems like an endless battle.
Another tip! You can hit the action button as soon as B’st bounces leading up to his elbow drop.
Tip for Ant Bruisers: Use Zale’s Sunball skill on multiple Ant Bruisers asap to prevent them from spawning other Ant Bruisers. Try to use him last in first wave to collect Mana boost.
Wished there was a relic that showed a indicator of WHEN to hit the A button. Sometimes I just can't figure out at what point to get the bonus on actions 😂
Yeah that would have been nice.
Another tip:
Something that is not mentioned much but that helps improve combat is that among the magics they are also super effective or ineffective against certain types of enemies. It's not just that the enemy is weak to magic, but it also depends on the type of magic damage.
For example, enemies such as ghosts or non-corporeal ones are very weak to lunar magic, but resist solar magic better. The opposite happens with physical enemies, they are weak to solar magic but resistant to lunar magic. Magic users are weak to poison.
This was so helpful! I didn't realize the powered up attacks added the moon and sun properties. It makes sense and now I feel silly lol
I felt silly too which is why this video now exists! haha Glad you found the video!
It also add up property to some of the combos, like Zale and Valere first combo you can Boost either Valere to get Moon property or Zale to get Sun property, this actually make the first combo usefull to break Locks on bosses as by default by timing for a double strike it can already break 2 Sword and 2 Blunt locks add Moon or Sun and depending of the attack the ennemy is preparing you can break up to 5 Locks in one turn.
But they literally tell you. It's a whole part of the game where they spend a significant amount of time saying "how can you use magic when you can't use magic?"
I appreciate it! A lot of this was super familiar from Octopath Traveler 2, the type weaknesses and attacks. The timed button presses adds a lot to the turn based combat and can change the tide of battle so they’re of some consequence but not totally necessary if you can’t always make them. I’ve had a blast starting this game, but in the combat is a mix of Octopath Traveler and Atelier Ryza… for me anyway. Those are 2 games that I’ve played and the experience with them made it much easier for me to understand this games combat system. I REALLY appreciate that they added manual difficulty adjustments with the relics. That way I can turn them on or off any time I play because there’s time I play before bed that I don’t want to stress myself out and it helps so much to be able to adjust combat for a challenge or for a more explorative playthrough. They did so amazing with this game.
Thanks for commenting and sharing your thoughts and excitement about the game. A little bit of Mario RPG as well.
Ty for the tutorial. This is my first RPG game, and I am really liking it.
Nice glad you found it helpful 👍
This was deff very helpful and a great watch. Thanks 😁
Glad it helped! Hope you're enjoying Sea of Stars!
Thank you!! I'm getting this tomorrow!! Your vid definitely helped
Oh nice! I am working on another guide for the mini game portion which is very confusing but very fun (and addicting) once you understand the basics.
Best Sea of Stars tips and trick video on all of UA-cam!
Nice thanks!
Got it. Thanks for the tutorial. Instant subscriber! ❤❤❤❤
Awesome 👍 thanks
I just started this game, and it's awesome so far, thanks for the tips!🎉
Yeah its a really great game. Hidden gem.
We're playing the entire game here on the channel! Hope you're enjoying Sea of Stars!
Thanks a lot for this, it was super helpful.
You're very welcome 👍
Thanks for the tips! Subscribed! 😎
Awesome thank you!
Thank you! Just started playing tonight!!!!
Woohoo! Nice!
The symbols explanations really helped i kinda new of some of it but now it makes sense definitely subscripting ❤
Glad this video helped you 👍
@@oxfordking i been stuck between getting this today or Mario wonder but I always play games alone so I seem like Wonder is more of a multi player lol
Great info!! Thank you very Much 😎
You're very welcome 👍
Thank you for that info🙇
You're very welcome 👍
I never thought that the moonerang can bounce a lot of times, thanks for this!
No problem! Yeah, it goes on for a long time.
thanks for providing a great beginners tutorial without spoiling the game. you earned my like for sure
Thanks 🙏
These are great tips, thanks!
You're very welcome 👍
Thank you for the video 😊
You're very welcome 😊
Bro just mooncreasted like he was fighting phantom Gannon and thought we wouldn’t notice 😂😂😂
😶🌫️
Great and useful video... Thanks!
You're very welcome!
thanks for the tips
Anytime
Very helpful information I learned a lot I didn’t know
Nice glad it helped - I'll be working on a video guide on the Mini Game as well with the Figurines. Very confusing at the start but really fun to play once you understand it more.
Thanks for this! The combat isn't too difficult to understand, but I did glean a few bits of information from the vid. What's difficult for me is the block...The button press on the attack is pretty easy to figure out, but the block is a pain in the ass.
Yeah anytime :) The timing on blocking is frustrating at time and definitely takes practice. I have notices the enemies attack in a 1-2-3 pattern where we block on 3. Try that out 👍
I hava a tip for you, in. Bricks town the shop npc,has a reliq that helps with the block
Excellent tip, thank you! I had to put the game aside for the past few days, but I'll watch out for that whenever I get there.@@pedroeugenio1975
Indeed i can do full disc attack without issue but block is impossible for me i have the relic but its mostly 50/50
I did left this game because of block timing, as You easy losing fight if You miss 50% blocks.
This was so helpful as this is my first rpg with this kind of combat. I tried the Sea of Stars demo, but just couldn’t properly grasp the strategy of the combat, it felt so random. I’d win a battle and not understand why. This video has changed that completely! So I’ve bought the game and am loving it, I would have totally missed out. I’ve completed many an ‘action’ rpg (Witcher, botw, assassins creeds), but couldn’t get into this style of game. Thanks so much for this. Please do some more beginning videos for this genre 🙏. I mean I had to look up AoE. 😂😂
Oh nice 👍 I'm so glad this video helped you. Love hearing stories like these on videos I make.
@@oxfordkingI can play AND understand West of Loathing now too! A whole new genre of games are now calling me. My poor wallet.
New sub! Great vid, good Sir! Ive absolutely fallen in love with this game!
Awesome! Welcome my friend! Glad you found the video helpful. I just made another one in the middle of my stream about the mine game with the figurines too. Should be up soon.
@@oxfordking Stoked to watch it! Thank you for the welcome!! I look forward to watching your channel & the community grow!
@@H.Liddell Thank you!!
Good guide thanks
Anytime - glad it helped
Yo did you record in ultra wide?! Thats awesome! I'm so used to black bars on either side when I full screen on my 21:9 that I was thrown off at first. Thanks!
Haha yeah! I had to use a Mod for it though - I have a Video on how to Install it but Fishing Doesn't Work with the Mod on - check out the Install video when you can. For now, I have to go back to 16:9 until the modder updates the fix. Fishing is too important lol
Thanks. I'm a few hours in, but still managed to completely miss that I can choose any character order on my turns. 😂
Yeah it's something I think most of us missed out of habits of other games in this genre.
Amazing video, thanks for all the great tips. Fantastic game! It gives me a feeling that other pixel rpgs just can't compare with. Great art, intriguing story and wonderful combat. Also, the exploration is really good without being a slog.
Thanks 👍 glad this helped and yeah this was a great experience.
Not sure if it was already mentioned but it is possible to flank an enemy by running into their backside. By sneaking up on the enemy, you will immediately hit them with a sneak attack before the battle even commences... It's not always the easiest to pull off but hey, if you do - that's just less enemy HP that you have to deplete in the actual fight.
Also it triggers live mana drop
ty!!!!
yw!!!!
Great video.
Thank you.
I just got the eye of yamora. Do you know what the significance of the up and down arrows are where it shows the symbols for enemy weaknesses at the top of the screen? Here’s hoping!!
so hard to block the atacks
Yeah I've learned to use Audio as a Queue - for instance the Ants have a 3 Click Timer, 1, 2, Block. Try the Sound technique with these timings. I hope it helps!
I’m good at it. I played GoW Ragnarok before this 😊
Yeah the block only happens for a few frames, but at least if you jump the gun you can hit it again if there’s enough time. It doesn’t lock you out, there’s just a little cooldown.
@@DomDomPop yeah, i found a shop with a reliq thats helps with the block(bricks town)
@@pedroeugenio1975 Yeah I picked that one up and turned it on. It only works some of the time, so you can still work on the timings yourself, but it does help.
Thanks, that was good! can you do an advanced video as well? Maybe I just need practice, but I still get rocked from time to time and feel like I’m missing stuff. Maybe I should be boosting my MP at level up. Also, how about level up tips, speaking of! I usually choose whatever gives the highest boost (like if something is +3 and everything else is +2, I’ll choose the +3 one)
I choose whatever I need at the moment. I don't lean on one stat. Treat it like real time adjustments based on your history of battles.
You've probably figured this out by now, but the boost amounts are set. +2 for attacking stats, +3 for defensive stats, +8 for HP, and +1 for MP. Very much recommend upgrading both HP and MP often. MP is first choice, HP is second choice if you can get it. There _is_ a midgame boss that will simply instakill you with a multi-hit, difficult-to-block attack if you don't level HP!
I always have trouble deciding what to pick when it’s time to upgrade the characters
I always went with what I felt was lacking from prior fights.
@@oxfordking ok 👍 I will try that. Thankyou
@@oxfordking sorry one more question what about the relics? Do you turn almost all them on?
Thank you for the guide! But keep in mind that in the middle of the game there WİLL be cast attacks that are clearly impossible to cancel. For instance, pirate boss has an attack with 8 slots to beat: 4 hammers + 4 venoms. You have just 2 turns before attack. The assassin girl can stack 4 venoms like Valere do with her moonerang, if properly timed. But how to beat 4 hammers in 1 turn? No hero has an appropriate attack so beter eat moonfish pies and heal, and heal, and heal...
Jst started last night and the first part of the real world with the ants is crushing me.. lol n my timing suxxx
Yeah I made a short on the infinite Ants Spawning - it's brutal lol
@OxfordKing actually ur video helped. I kinda had a idea of the mechanics but it def cleared things up. Plus I turned on the full health relic. I'm in the mine now about to fight the wizard I think.
Honestly did not learn anything new besides the charging effect on basic attacks. so TYVM for that had no idea.
but one thing I will add. esp when there is 1 enemy left or 2 enemies with low HP's
if possible don't hit the button for a critical hit if there is a secondary character that can recover an 3 MP (it basically boils down to whether one character recovering 3MP - despite the extra damage dealt [which doesn't matter bc of low HP - the enemy will likely die regardless] or just don't hit the A button to allow for an additional character getting their turn to attack an enemy [directly due to less damage dealt by not pressing the critical hit button on time] and allow the secondary character to recover MP as well)
ultimately it is either gaining 3MP for a singular character vs 6 MP for your characters at the end of the day]
you have to very resourceful / think ahead bc you never know if there is going to be a campsite nearby.
also I myself use all my MP if there is a campsite nearby. sure it costs more time IRL but anything beats the dreaded GAME OVER screen and having to repeat the process.
ONE LAST THING. USE YOUR HOOKS FOR COMBAT AS SOON AS YOU GET EM!
Yeah I didnt want to spoil the hook here lol but yes the Scorpion "Get Over Here" hook sets you up nicely every start.
How long does the combo go? Will the combo extend if I continue to tap the action button with correct timing?
Standard Attack Combo is just two hits so for you just one Press - the Skills, however, can extend like Moonerang and another character I won't spoil here.
Is there any visual representation on when to do the perfect hit or block?
Yes I mention that very topic / question in the video - look for the section I talk about the Star - towards the end.
why when im in battel there is no item category ? i have a lot of item and i only can use when im not in battle
Hey, great video! One thing that I still don't understand is how to know when an enemy is weak ("Vulnerable" text shows up) or strong ("Resist" text shows up) against your attacks. Even you said at 12:45 "this guys happens to be weak at magic". I don't know if they are weak to all magic types (Sun / Moon) or only moon. The same with basic attacks (maybe enemies are strong against sword but weak against blunt) Do you have any idea how to tell this?
I only know through trial and error but I did see an NPC mention the solar and lunar attack weaknesses based on enemy color. I'll have to try that later today.
@@oxfordking Thank you! That's interesting. I will try to find a combat near a save book to test this too. Again, thank you for your time!
@JinxLance There's a relic that does that later!
@@JinxLancethere's a ring you can get for it either in the hidden shop at brisk or later
Is it too much to ask that the game itself teach me to play it before I’m pitted against enemies who can literally replicate themselves x2 each turn?
Currently playing this and I wish I could do a longer moonerang. Im playing on PC so commands are different, it's the space button. Im still trying to time deflecting Valere's moonerang and for some reason, I can time blocking easily but not the freaking moonerang lol/
yeah it takes practice and I'm that Spacebar isn't helping - try anticipating the move before it gets there; one thing I did was sound out the rhythm in my head which really helped. I found that watching it messed up my timing.
@@oxfordking Thank you kindly! I did turned on the relic for it and I was able to get a longer faster moonerang but I definitely do watch animations first. I'll try to do it that way, that makes more sense since sound is my cue for blocking 😂 I don't why I didn't think of that sooner lol 😆
Great game, shame there's no real way to get Op apart from using the relics, great game but no chained chaos that's for sure.
Yeah loving the game so far - its been a blast to play.
I have never played any JRPG. I am hesitating now which one would be most suitable for a beginner? Sea of Stars , Live a Live , or Octopath Traveler ?
All great games 👍 can't go wrong
Man I just wish figuring out where to do the extra hit wasn’t total guesswork. Valere’s arc or Garl’s hurl wasn’t so bad to figure out since they’re physical attacks, but when the hell am I supposed to pump a healing move? Or the combo attacks? There’s no indication of when I should even attempt to pump them. I did it on Zale’s healing once by accident, so I know it’s possible.
Yeah its a guessing game at the start - I still don't know when to press for Zale and Garl on their heals.
@@oxfordking For Zale I’m fairly certain it was when the spiral finished going up his body, like at the tip of his head. Within those couple frames, at least, I had the star from the relic go off. Without the relic, I wouldn’t have even known it worked.
For Garl and for the combo move with Valere, I’ve been trying different options, but no success yet. With the combo, I’ve tried around the blast from Zale and the shot from Valere that shatters it. With Garl I’ve tried when he pulls the apple and when it lands on the character.
@@DomDomPop Ok cool - I'll try that out tomorrow - streaming part 3
The star relic is key for experimenting
I suspected there was maybe one for the heal, I'll have to give it a go.
Weirdly I dont see the star shoot up when I do perfect block/perfect strike and I'm doing them often. I donhear the audio cue though. Is that a visual setting that needs to he turned on?
same question :D
found it, turn on Sequent Flare in Relics menu
@@NguyenLeThinhThank you!
Yes I go over this in the video 👍 and how to turn it on. 13:21
@@NguyenLeThinh13:21
There are none here, but sometimes you see two white arrows at the bottom right of the turn icon. Anyone knows what they're for?
Interesting, I have never seen this at all - I will need to pay more attention to this the next time I fire up the game.
I think I've been focusing way too much on ho and need to get my strength up
I've been juggling on each category as the game progresses.
Is there any way to “enhance” any of the ultimates??
Great question! I will have to try that in my next livestream but being that they have these cutscenes probably not. Maybe enhance for Damage output only?
@@oxfordking i was thinking the same thing about the cutscenes but maybe, using Serai’s ult for example, pressing the button as the strike a pose before the cinematic.
this game is so chill. kratom juice and this game = love
Yeah its been absolutely delightful to play. Just got done streaming it for 8 hours - had no idea lol
I’ve been pronouncing her name as Val-er-ree 🤷♂️
So you really time the attacks twice? I thought it was just once...
Yeah it's for every time an action happens - they made it like Super Mario RPG; interactive RPG
@@oxfordking right on, thank you sir!
Dam the bonbs only took 13 damage and you didn’t block. I block and they take like 17-20
i like the graphic of this game but there is not a lot of spell .... and the game is so linear i wish it was a little more open map because am like 3 or 4 hours in and so far it like a straight line
It's a linear path until you get a ship but even still it's railed but less so.
The characters and/or art style looks like a step up from Earthbound but I hated that game.
This feels like giving us Final Fantasy Mystic Quest after decades of good RPGs. At least Mystic Quest has some solid art.
Sea of Stars is definitely a hidden gem that I hope more players get a chance to play
they compare this game with chrono trigger realy? this game is only to make money nothing else!
tbf 99% of today's gaming industry is out to make money and nothing else.
my timing is better on dock mode who knows why
