    The max stats total for a hired unit you can get from the shop is 278-280 (excluding HP/MP). There are a few template variations for each generic (with their default stats that are good for berserkers, knights, ninjas build).

    Thanks, I'm a first time player and got stuck at the end of Chapter 2. I basically made it to this point with no upgrades, no monster recruits, stock characters by just making a bee line for the leader. Now I'm farming for all +1 crafted items in phorompa wildwood before I start any of chapter 3. I've felt like I'm playing hollow knight all over again :-). Triangle strategy was just ok, this is possibly the best game I've ever played in my life, my attention is fully captured 30+ hours which never happens for me.

    I think you should do a video on one of the coolest but least used aspects of the game:
    Beast elevation
    As in, beasts can be treated as a 3 elevation platform to shortcut walls, bridge gaps for the one tile jump, make gradual inclines for jump challenged mages, create gaps in Rampart Auras your unit can jump through, etcetc
    It's great fun and making visual guides with movement cost contrasts really shows you how carefully they really designed each battle map and why walls are the height they are.

    I find, in Reborn the Rune Fencer/Valkyrie is a super strong class, much stronger then in the PSP version. On the PSP they where constrained by all the skills you needed to really do allot damage, which means either you go full Physical or full Magic setup. Here though they are just limited in how many spells they can carry.

    • @Momoka7
      @Momoka7 2 місяці тому

      @QueenAleenaFan You don't really need to focus. Either you gear them Offensively(use a Spear) or Defensively(Sword/Shield combo), in both setups you can give them a Attack Spell and a Heal Spell. Being able to go to the front lines and smack enemies as well as being able to equip up to Meditate 2 makes them get allot MP really fast even without the card.
      Then giving them a Attack Spell as well as a Healing Spell allows you to choose between a Finisher, a Attack Spell or Healing someone... which is unbelievable flexible.
      In addition to that, with that setup they can utilize all cards be they Plus Physical or Plus Magical. So you could just decide in a match on cards that "just happen to drop" giving them Plus Physical in one match and Plus Magical in the next.
      This also makes them very versatile when combined with other units, you use other physical strong units in this match? Just give them the Plus Magic cards, you have Magical strong units already? Give them Plus Physical.
      And if you already have both in the match, a Valkyrie/Rune Fencer is strong as a support without cards, nearly never running out of MP and always able to do "something" no matter do they have MP or not.
      They are like a real Ace in the pocket.

    I would love to see one for the more "advanced" or unique classes. Especially the Lord because the amount of combinations available is staggering.
    Like I gave him Meditate, Double Attack, Sword, and Sanguine - and the Sanguine stacks with both strikes of the double attack while the Meditate allows it to happen nearly every turn. Only using Sword because I got a powerful one from the story, but after unlocking more crafting might switch it to daggers.

    I know I already posted but I wanted to talk about using a double sword ninja build. Running in without preparation is a sure fire way to watch your buzzsaw break. However, if you instead use your classes that are waiting for their mana charge to item buff your paper blender he will become quite effective. I have forgotten what the items are called off hand but you will know them when you see them. Most can even be purchased in stores. It's still a pain as using them properly really requires extra steps.

    Swordmasters were amazing in the ORIGINAL PSOne version. You could run around and poison and petrify just about everyone with a solidly built Swordsmaster. This new version... is very different. They also used to be able to wield two swords back then, much like ninjas. Now they can't. They are a completely different class.

    • @CoffeePotato
      @CoffeePotato  2 роки тому +8

      Yeah, but they have been for over a decade. They were kind of "The Hamedo guy that does Bard and Dancer stuff" coming off of FFT, but kind of sucked there. They could petrify on their first finisher, could pretty much always petrify with a Macuahatl, and yet they were a paper thin ghost of a class. This time they kept that idea, but you don't need to burn fans to do their dances, they hit hard, their Preempt-Knockback build is just a skill of it's own, and you can combine their moves instead of praying you didn't get smushed on an attacking round.

    Theoretical Berserker Cudgel Build:
    Damasc Mace + 1, Cudgels, Berserk, Risk Management and Siege or HPup
    Berserk allows them to spread around Stun with the mace. Risk Management helps mitigate damage. They charge into/through the enemy front line, escorted by warriors/TKs/knights. Gear them to be the most attractive target to the enemy to let Risk Management do its job, and to build MP. Use cudgel finishers to debuff with with enfeeble for your backline mages.

      The shop units usually have better stats than the recruitable ones in story battles (or dungeons), because You can get the maximum total stats of 278-280 for every Level 1 generic unit from the shop.
      For every generic unit in the shop, they have several templates (from a defensive type to an all rounder type). For example, You can make a tanky wizard/archer with poor INT/DEX or a squishy warrior with poor VIT. Reroll a few times, and You will see there are only a few stats combinations.

    I am in Ch2 right now and I was always using 2 clerics but I think that is just slowing me down. I've been trying out the beast tamer with a bow but she seems to always do 1 damage, maybe 15 or so max. Is this why you use the status blowguns and grenades? Is their damage just always that bad?

      I can do that, it's been requested a few times.
      So as weird as it sounds, bows, crossbows, and guns all collectively have the best damage in the game. But. It's terrible at armor penetration. You can stack Dex and Strength to brute force it. You can use Breach and Fear, however, to instantly get access to their higher damage at any time. While any unit will benefit from the damage boost, ranged ones will get substantially more from that.
      For example:
      In the late game, normal archers do 10-200 damage. But. Breach/Fear, and they boost that to 1200. Double for 2400. Trem/Double for 5000, since the Averse adds 200ish. Up that to 6200 with an Instill.
      Ranged units are like a river behind a floodgate, it's removing that gate that makes them insane.

    This is my first experience with any game in this series, and I am in chapter 2. Thought I would point out that I was stunned to find out the meaning of the status effect stunned: "SOMETIMES unable to take action"
    I went out of my way to get a weapon that stunned, and the first couple times, I thought I must be confused. I would get the symbol on an enemy I attacked, and then they would quickly take their turn anyway. Now, I go to the enemy's "card" and mouseover the status effect and find out the unhappy truth. Since this has happened the first three times implies that "sometimes" is not a super high percentage.
    I think that this is the sort of thing that all the online tip videos kind of slides over. Sometimes you talk about the odds that something like poison will fire, but how about the certainty and length of effect if it does fire? In my mind, at least, that is part of the valuation of a given strategy. Whether it is worth getting the weapon and the skill and the actions in battle to inflict a status effect depends a lot on what you actually accomplish when you succeed.

    • @CoffeePotato
      @CoffeePotato  2 роки тому +2

      Fair, but it's also hard to quantify in this one as well. So in simple terms, it just means you can slow down something with a debuff that's easy to spread. Hard to quantify, but easy to feel.
      So then let's say "you have a 15% chance to hit with a debuff that causes a unit to lose a turn 50% of the time. The duration of this debuff is based on chance and Mind score, with the brackets moving up to the point where a high Mind unit can be scary with any debuff lasting ages. This is further scaled based on each unit's daily Luck, and some percentage based modifiers can lock these into their maximum value. "
      Easier to quantity on paper, does nothing for feeling it out, and really doesn't explain why it's useful.
      So that's why I try to just explain how to guarantee it, and hope folks will see how it works in practice. While it's not guaranteed to take effect, any Stumble can be massive. It's a debuff that can potentially ruin consecutive turns, save a unit about to be killed, stop a heal, anything.
      This is actually the nerfed version, too. In PSP it also prevented any Counter actions. Despite losing that (it was a go to for many), it's still incredibly handy to just throw out there and watch the delays grow. You don't just throw it on one. You throw it across the whole party as they get within range.

I think that most beginners like me need to start with the information that it's a very helpful debuff, but that even after it has been applied to an enemy, it is still just a percentage chance. (Like, don't think you can just ignore that unit for a turn or two!) And that Mind is a major variable. (Is Mind of the target part of the equation, too?)

    Griffin is the one early game unit I can't live without. I feel like I could make a team of only Warriors work as long as I had a Griffin in there. The first Phorampa map should be a mandatory stop for new players. You can recruit Hawkmen and Griffins there. An early-game Cleric with flight is great to have. Hawkmen also make great Beast Tamers, thanks to flight + lobber + double recruiting allowing them to go wherever they need to be and also recruit many more creatures for you. Or you can give them the beast tamer monster buff moves and have them follow around their creatures. A squad with Canopus, Hawkman beast tamer and Griffin works really well.
    I think the monsters make a huge difference on the game's difficulty, especially early. The AI redirection is so essential. It pretty much always works too, even on bosses. A single Griffin can make Oz and Ozma so much easier, or any other boss fight where the boss starts with 4 cards. It's rare for them to die in one turn. If they do, you just revive them and they get their turn back immediately, so they can proc Dash and run to the back lines for heals.
    Monsters got such massive buffs in Reborn compared to PSP, imo. I kinda wish you could recruit some in Chapter 1. I'm not a fan of Worlding around and would rather just do full "runs" of the game. Early Lizardmen/Medusae would be great too.

Also, the way Preempt works with Swordmaster's critical to prevent attacks. (...and) Absorb MP being used defensively to prevent casting from mages. (...and also) Knights using crossbows in order to effectively 'block' enemies from moving by standing in a good spot but still being able to chip damage. (...) How to use Ninjas the most effectively so they don't just die.
    ...and tons more stuff. Just little nuanced things that I think add up to making a big difference in strategy. I mean, I've been getting through the game just fine and my builds have been mostly OK but I feel like I'm going to kick a little more butt now going forward.
    Oh! And I've been using my Beasttamer with whips and putting beefy healing potions in and lobbing them for heals. I've never used bombs before... I need to change this.

Besides...if I remember correctly over leveling will wind up biting you if you're not careful.

      @CoffeePotato  Рік тому +1

      Crossbow finishers are handy in general, and avoid the downsides of using a one handed crossbow against heavier targets, while the added range allows for more effective use of AoE abilities where you'd prefer to use them. So if you post up a TK, they retain the ability to push with their shield, they can obstruct and debuff passively while using their crossbow for debuffs/damage at range. A knight can block and support, a dragoon can still make effective use of their anti armor skills while gaining a Knockback. The difference in damage between a heavy crossbow and a light one mostly come up in the post game or when taking basic attacks, which can still be pretty solid if using Fear/Breach/Elements. It just gives them the means to exploit more situations at the cost of some general purpose damage.

      Yes, diff classes have diff stats growths. But it won't be apparent until at least mid 20s (unless they are mages).
      Archer = more DEX/AGI, Berserker = more STR, Knight = more VIT, Cleric = more MND, Wizard = more INT.
      Melee oriented classes will have more HPs than MPs (except for the Rune Fencer which has balance stats growth between a mage and a warrior).
      If You prefer stats growths of an All Rounder, Rune Fencer and Warrior are the options for early chapters. The latter can't cast magic (and have lower MPs).
      There are also extra random 2-5 pts stats bonuses every levelling. I dunno how it works. I think they depend on your combat performance (or LCK). Uniques (except Denam) have more stats bonuses.

    Poison is great, but it's risky relying on it to finish things off unless you've cleared all the healers from the field.

Current Valk run is going quite well, though cheating a little by leaving Gildas and Myrdin as white knights mostly due to their ape rt reduction, as I'm focusing more on spear than valks specifically. Being able to be decent at phys, magic, and healing is really strong. I stopped using concentration on them as I tended to almost always have 100% hit rate. I also give them ease instead of boon to strip off negative statuses. Two healing items for big bursts of healing exorcism and blessing is my normal item load.
    Recruit challenges require having the correct recruit ability. If no humanoids, recruit won't qualify for the challenge.
    Might have to try a shield bash run sometime.

    Whats the best way to get the rogue’s mark?

      Currently there's no Rogues on the player side. They used a special AI situation or some such on the PSP version, which apparently made it impossible to bring over on the player side. Functionally speaking, Beast Tamers, Archers, Familiars, and Buccaneers have aspects of the class in their own ways in this one. (It was functionally an archer upgrade that got locked into crossbows in PSP)

      It's not like OV went anywhere, they're sister rulesets, it's all good.

      I mean knights are the new replacement know. Haven't changed my Denam from the knight class since the start of the game. The extra access to higher healing spells can be useful some times.

    I have a question about guests. Do they give back the stuff you put on them whenever they leave your party ?

    Maybe its because of the update, but I killed plenty of dragoon and sword masters in phorampa wildwood and didn't get a single class mark.

      It's not a common drop, but you can always just recruit them.

    I cant recruit any one or anything, always shows 0% chance. Any tips??

      What's the recruit icon show when targeting? Blue circle means valid, Red X means invalid. Make sure they're valid first. Things like Fear and Charm don't work because they're not rational enough to talk. Silence, Sleep, and Petrify block it for obvious reasons.

      @@CoffeePotato The blue circle/ red X makes sense. Yea I didnt know if any status effects helped or not, sometimes I see 20% but on basic units. Honestly Im so tripped up over this mechanic, probably from mainly playing Fire Emblem the last several years haha.
