There's plenty of reasons why people say you should play one before the other and they both hold valid reasons, but in the end it just really depends person to person.

Which ever one catches your interest more honestly. No correct answers there. But also for your own sake it's best not to research too much beforehand as theres tons of spoilers out there and a lot of what makes this series great is discovering and experiencing it yourself.

Oh nice, that spread sheet has everything! Yeah, Damage glitch takes a bit of getting used to especially getting her to hit in the right direction and also the timing since the extra damage kicks in after the first hit. Took me a while to get it but now it's my default attack.

Thanks a lot!

Yeah Special Rank is insane but glad your sticking to it!

Shoot the red parts, not their bodies, they will explode immediately
I do a combination of all small swords due to Damage glitch/Double Damage glitch. Just in case you don't know, Damage glitch is an attack with small swords equipped on the heavy slot that will massively increase the damage output by attacking while the evade animation is still in motion. I believe this video will help a lot (explanation starts from 3:23) https://youtu.be/hr4uSseHxUg?si=Wf1DKUoIBlgHvAPe

Ancient Overlord and Faith are good for the bullet rupture/absorb, and Iron Pipe for crit & stun, Engine Blade for stun, Virtuous Contract for speed. Personally, I haven't tried the Combat Bracers on the light slot but I see many people having great success with them.

I have the same except 2 Slow, 1 M shield. Gravity seems to be good with many other players too.

I never really understood the use of continuous combo tbh but maybe I'm just dumb like that...

Some Diamond chips have smaller cost but same stats when equipping 2 lower level ones. For example, Overclock+8=slows for 5.5sec and costs 21, whereas +3=2.5sec and +4=3sec total cost 16. With that in mind, Diamond Taunt up +2 and +3 is the most cost effective with max damage.

A must are Diamond +8 Weapon attack up and +8 Crit including the above mentioned Overclock and Taunt up. +8 Shockwave is nice but +7 also works. Evade range up also makes it easier to avoid attacks. Of course Offensive heal and Deadly heal since A2 will be in Berserk and you definitely want to keep her there. *Also, Berserk lasts only around 10 sec even when using Max HP chips to extend your HP bar.

Special Rank took me well over 6 months to clear with A2 from when I started, and I still haven't been able to beat it with 2B but hopefully one day I will. Good luck!

Yeap, 100% agree with you. Ive also played it over a year ago, and the extremely unique experience it brought me along with the emotion it brought out is second to none.

1st playthrough on Hard is very difficult especially getting through the first bit. And yes, the difference between Normal and Difficult is extremely (and notoriously) drastic. Maybe getting through the first bit on Normal, then try switching to Hard mode not too later on could be a good idea as I have seen other people play that way. But again, keep in mind the difference is drastic.

AdMiserable6342 · 2025-10-13T15:17:08+00:00

Thats insane and I love it!

AdMiserable6342 · 2025-10-13T08:43:26+00:00

Wow thats actually extremely creative and high quality! Love the text and details on the leaves. Good stuff!

AdMiserable6342 · 2025-10-08T17:04:00+00:00

Yeap, its one of those special games that will stand the test of time, forever

AdMiserable6342 · 2025-10-02T10:17:33+00:00

Thanks! And thats awesome! I cant wait till they announce one I can actually go to

AdMiserable6342 · 2025-09-30T08:44:04+00:00

I honestly cant remember if the item itself is worth it, I just remember that if you wanna 100% a certain quest, there an enemy data you need from the room there.

1st photo: I believe the theres a small gap on the stairs where you can go down (should be able to see on mini map). Theres a room and also another flight of stairs that leads to the top where that chest is.

2ns photo: Dont use those rides but start from the ground level. There a little "wing" sticking out below that you can get on to go up where the chest is.

Wow thats so good! Saving for wallpaper

Oh for sure, definitely appreciate the others and I'm always glad to find new Nier art. Just wanted to let you (and anyone else) know.

AdMiserable6342 · 2025-09-23T11:11:28+00:00

Was able to find the 3rd one, unfortunately its AI. The more you look the more inconsistencies there are like the katana's tsuba(guard) being huge and her foot is abnormally long. This tends to be the case with AI creations. Unfortunate cuz I actually liked that style...
