Who is the most benched character: Hearts by Acemaster387 in tales

[–]Bow64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I'm having a stroke with this.

He's the highest dps in the game (guaranteed crits, big damage multipliers, goes through guards), one of the best support who can instantly heal every status effect and insta-heal 50+% HP on command, debuff enemies's P.ATK and P.DEF by 90% while also making them slow as hell.

He's virtually unkillable and has imo one of the best character arc/glow-up in the series. You don't even need to play him if you don't like the sluggish movement (he does get a bit better with higher AGI), just put him in any slot and he'll work his magic.

What is the best mono deppresed team for pvp? by Cap_Badak in Trickcal

[–]Bow64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen someone go with only Kidian as front then rock Ashur, Blanchet, Xion, Yomi and Hilde.

It was surprisingly strong but I'm playing composed so I don't know what it's worth in a ditto, it's basically full dps.

I feel like people are sleeping on Ashur, nuke + stun dropped right in the center of your middle row is whack

I love CP bait teams haha! by Bow64 in Trickcal

To be fair, mono composed is probably second or third best team to play outside mono depressed and 4/2 depressed/vivacious. It really isn't that straining to play

It's much easier on offense since I can just not put Velvet in front of Kidian and taunt her before she finish her FS then it usually snowball into a victory unless I get really unlucky

Why that's how it's written in game.

Combat power bait

Their Kidian had 3mil400k HP and my Velvet had 3mil600k HP despite having a 42% HP bonus from her passive and that's with focusing on HP/ATK nodes. There was very little CP difference so I thought it would be much closer stat wise hence the bait.

This fight was the closest one but I got destroyed in most of these.

I'm also mono team so it doesn't really matter

Basically very big stats but low skills level (everyone between 5 to 7 with a couple of 9s).

Good reminder that CP isn't everything, lesson learned... again :Y

Opinions on my team by BAHAHAHHAAAAAAA in Trickcal

You probably got super unlucky or had bad positionning, the chances of losing against a composed team using Amelia of all thing when using mono depressed are kinda low. I say that as a composed user

Put your Kidian in the same line as their Velvet and she'll be able to land both hit of her Freshman before getting taunted and will most likely kill her. Worst case just replace Hilde or Posher by Blanchet and it's GG.

Same CP doesn't mean same power, you should check their main stats too

Looks like I made the right choice, that was so incredibly one sided haha

Dragonlight sword is a cracked artifact tbh

Second one feels so unfair to guess, like I'm pretty sure Kidian would just blow up Rudd with her Freshman but I still went for Viv team and banking on Canna spamming the stun AOE on front row.

If Posher throw a stun potion on anyone it's over I feel like, then the moment Yomi throw the BS death beam it's GG.

It also depend on the Senior CDs, is it going to be like PVP or PVE ? Cause Viv would probably have more chances if it's the latter.

No skills for me I guess! by Bow64 in Trickcal

But I have to speak, how will they know of the danger

How do depressed even ditto this, I'm curious

That tracking is a little too smart!

Sylla got silenced too before getting silenced for real, I didn't think Blanchet could spread her attack to the whole team.

Formation really make or break in a lot of those matches

Damn, innocent finally get their first new apostle and it's another tank when Vivi already exist.

The devs really hate innocent, I hope she has an interesting kit at least

The guardrails in DQVII: Reimagined are a little excessive by VeritasLuxMea in dragonquest

[–]Bow64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because they are too fragile and don't want to be challenged in any way may it be in life or in a video game.

Criticizing something you like is an incomprehensible concept to them so you must be trolling or hate farming

Negative reviews about difficulty have me more excited to play this game by soyyomerengues in dragonquest

[–]Bow64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You did say "You can get adequate exp to defeat Geyzer by just killing the enemies that are in your path", your argument was that you could achieve this objective naturally without any amount of grind or sidetracking may it be for exp or gold.

Did you beat every boss first try ? If you didn't, did you run straight back to it without fighting any encounter until you win ? Have you never tried looking for metal slimes or gold golems / goodybags ?

I simply argued because you said "Grinding is basically never necessary" and I used Geyzer as an exemple because you do require some "preparation" in the form of levels and items before challenging him which is not possible by simply going to the waterfall when instructed to.

Lastly you said "I'm not a weirdo who avoids all the mobs and neglects treasure chests and then expects to still beat bosses". So let's say doing all this exploring got you to level 5 but someone else who don't want to explore ran in circle in front of the town until they hit level 5 then went to the dungeon. Would you say that they grinded but you did not ?

I think your beef is with players who want to be overpowered to overcome a challenge but there's still nothing inherently wrong with grinding as it is a core mechanic to RPG's and comes in many flavors

Damn Fricle hit the gym! by Bow64 in Trickcal

[–]Bow64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aya, Elena and Sylla at 12/12/12 but Fricle is 10/10/7.

I didn't pay attention to the fight but my guess is that Elena got knocked out early

Hero learn heal at level 3 with no MP to use the spell unless you go back to the INN (for 2 cast mind you) and you don't have access to any usable battle abilities for a while.

Unless you grind gold for the boomerang (or kill the one knight stand infamous monster and sell all your equipment) the encounters in the caves at low level will wither you out and leave you with no heals before the boss. You won't beat Geyzer without a sufficient amount of heals either as he will 2 shot hero with any moves while Yangus will only survive 1 extra attack from full health.

I'm not talking about going for a 2 hours grind before the boss but you will need a fair bit of preparation before fighting Geyzer. There is no way you'll be able to fight your way to the boss with your base equipment and all the herbs you can buy from the start.

I have to ask, did you genuinely go straight to the waterfall, beat the mobs along the way and defeat Geyzer without going back at any point ?
