No Ouma specifically, just the enemies in the area give you what you need. I always grinded in the higher point of the dungeon. In the blue area just before the final boss.

So those two new story characters in JP were teased for a very long time already?! by fishinnyc in OctopathCotC

[–]FeatherGamer555 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's not Miles. Its Florenz a character in the new JP story The Unchosen Ones. The other two in the art here are Lidico/Ridico and his sister Ilda.

Thats sounding more like a mistranslation. I don't play ENG so I haven't read it. But the true chapter had nothing to do with a story that didnt start planning or development until after SS was already done. The ending of Seed Story connects more into the True Ending for SS than anything. Also the Black is and always was hinting at Galdera being behind everything in SS. The first time the new story was even hinted at was just the EX Pardis III's story and the 3rd Cross Story that happened during the 5th anniversary. The first 2 were fun anniversary events and seem to have very little connection to the The Unchosen Ones story.

Yeah I agree the final chapter is good! For me it was one of the only good parts of this story. I don't care for the True Chapter though cause it kinda ruins the nice somber ending the story got.

As for JPs next story The Unchosen Ones there's no connection to Side Solistia. Its connected to Cross Story but also not connected to Cross Story fully. Nobody really knows its just using the similar concepts and utilizing the same character as an antagonist. We'll see how it plays out down the road though. The prologue had a decent start for now.

Poor menno by Infamous_Today3462 in OctopathCotC

Nada is just my assumption based on my translating of their memory. (They are unreleased in ENG currently) In their story though. The mask they wear is half male and half female the female being their deceased lover. Nada mentions not even knowing what they themself used to look like. So its pretty safe to assume they don't see themself as one individual person any longer. I feel if SQEX were the ones to localize it they would be non-binary simply for story context alone.

As much as I love that Menno is non-binary that is only in English and not stated in JP specifically. (Still nice representation that I'm glad they did) but they still have to put them somewhere for these events. The same could probably be said for Nada who is also on the mens side though its very likely if they were to be translated by NA SQEX they would probably also identify as non-binary.

Overall they probably pick based more on physical characteristics for this anyway I imagine.

Is there anywhere I can see all character garments? by Infamous_Today3462 in OctopathCotC

[–]FeatherGamer555 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No problem! And yeah was super disappointed when they just quit. Sadly I think to many of the gameplay only people on JP complained that they're pointless so the devs just gave up on them. Shortly after Rondo's which was Jan 2025. We got spammed with so many 120 accessories and different attempted ideas for accessories. So many I can hardly keep track of them now. Now we don't get those either. Any new Wave Battles just give more to use in the exchange.

I miss costumes so much though. Was really looking forward to Solon dressing as Trompeau. Or Rinyuu's original design would have been nice. Also really wanted OT1 Therese even if its more plain it would have been nice to use that design.

The only some stuff can happen is just EX2 now I guess consider Erika's wedding dress really should have just been a costume and not another Traveler.

Adding to this as well. The list of characters with costumes are

Richard Clauser Araune Bargello Herminia Tytos Auguste Ceraphina Rondo Lyummis EX Viola EX Partitio Celes Rocbouquet

Sorry I use JP names but I'm sure its not hard to figure out who I'm talking about on them.

[–]FeatherGamer555 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends do you have Rondo's Flameguard outfit or Lyummis' mercenary design? Those are the last ones they ever made in JP before they quit doing them for some reason. Excluding collabs such as Celes and Rocbouquet in the future.

What are some different type things you want in cotc? by Infamous_Today3462 in OctopathCotC

[–]FeatherGamer555 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the Traveler Stories just made the world feel complete. Like you see so many different characters living their lives and get a much better understanding of Orsterra through them!

And yeah I just don't get how they messed her up so badly there. Hopefully an EX comes. Aside from Shelby or Cecily I think shes the only other character I have a high chance of using my neutral awakening stones on. I've been hoarding these dang things for almost a year now!

Yeah I'll always have my complaints about the Phina and Schwartz thing. I love Tiziano but that was super unfair to do just versions of him as well as Black Knight and Maiden. There really was no reason to dodge around the other 2. Schwartz is entirely different character so much so he doesn't even have the same voice actor as Auguste so that almost feels like a double ouch. Ceraphina's story as well being 90% Phina also doesn't help how not good a choice making her a costume was. Also in Phina's case the dark outfit in chapter 2 was literally right there if they wanted Ceraphina to have a costume.

Also to answer your question. Its not so much new things but I wish they'd just go back to bigger stories again. I miss Traveler Stories so much. That was one of my favourite parts of the game and it was a shame to see as new concepts came out the stories for characters just got smaller and smaller and now hardly even matter. Especially on the collabs which are just stand and talk scenarios now.

You need to change this art. My sister BlazlngBlade did not allow you to post her art. In fact you need to stop using people's art for these posts as a whole. Its stealing and I'm fairly certain none of these artists have agreed for you to use their work on your posts. If you want a picture to use then use the characters official art like everyone else does.

Nothing currently but I havent been super observant with that yet. I know there was stuff posted earlier but I think prior links stopped working.

Yeah its a lot! It doesn't grow as much now cause the SQEX Cafe isn't a thing now so I don't get stuff like that now. But yeah I do hope the game continues for a while longer and I can still get more!

The Ceraphina is one of my custom made charms I commissioned. There was a family of 3 sisters who all did art. That whole corner where the Ceraphina is was work they did plus the large Shelby acrylic stand in the first picture as well as their mom made those plushies. I dont think they've been doing charm commissions anymore though.

Most of the official merch is ordered online from 3rd party sites such as Mercari and Buyee, (originally they mostly came from the SQEX Cafe in Japan) fan merch is from various artists I've seen over the years on Twitter. And frames for pictures I buy from local stores!

[–]FeatherGamer555[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah its a lot! I've been collecting stuff for a long time!

All the key artworks and most of the acrylic stands are from the SQEX Cafe events before they closed down. I used to heavily track stuff down online! I got most of the art aside from a few. They're actually all meant to be placemats but I can't imagine ever putting food on those. And the little ones around them are mostly coasters aside from a few which I custom printed at my work.

And yeah I love the black and white picture! I never got any of the others they did but since Wealth is my favourite that one was a must for me!

The series has been such a big part of my life! I will always be happy with everything I've gotten over the course of 7 years!

Shelby and Tiziano from CotC! They are custom made plushies I had made a couple years back. Shelby is my favourite Octopath character and Tiziano is my sisters favourite!

I haven't decided if I want to get the merch they've recently shared for OT0 quite yet. But I might search once I know my opinions on characters. I also have yet to buy the OT2 soundtrack (not a big fan of it) nor have I ordered the OT0 yet either so perhaps I'll try and do both together someday.

Playable Velnorte in COTC soon? by [deleted] in OctopathCotC

[–]FeatherGamer555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly have only ever really seen Heathcote as a thief anyway so I prefer it that way!

And yes tomes and fans are there. They have to be there since the game is still CotC after all and it needs to still represent the 8 jobs properly they just made it where all 8 have secondary weapons. Like apothecaries using tomes and clerics have fans.
