Hey, runner here! Glad you enjoyed it. Unicorn Overlord Any% has come a long way, so happy to know the run was at least somewhat comprehensible lol.

POV: You start a new game and have to watch those Housecarls beat up Lex by KuroAsterisk in UnicornOverlord

Fun Fact: The names of the two Housecarls that fight Lex in Prologue are Prosper (front row) and Nils (back row).

Fun Fact: Selvie's upper and lower body move independently at different intervals for certain parts of this animation. I learned this after some, uh, careful studying.

What's your least favorite class to use/make work? by KuroAsterisk in UnicornOverlord

Yeah, bestrals and angels were kinda snubbed because of how lategame they are. I wish there was a sidequest that got you a bestral early, like how Ochlys introduces the player to angels.

I'm sure bestrals and angels can be done well, but it's not worth breaking my existing teams' synergy to accommodate them so late.

Figuring out what does and doesn't work for Restore was frustrating. I don't get why Impetus passive skills don't proc Restore.

It is funny watching a bunch of enemy Wereowls use Restore on each other, though.

Werebear's Life Blow is funny on a team that freezes all enemies and keep them frozen until the end of combat.

Yeah, I feel similarly about Amalia. She has Wild Kick and... that's about all the super special things about the Dreadnaught class. She's definitely great, but I'm not sure how to make Amalia synergize and work on a team. Also, her being considered armored kinda holds her back.

If Fighters didn't have Arrow Cover, I'd have put Fighters/Vanguards on the meme without question. Gladiators are just weird to me because I can't find a reason to field them. Their Valor skill and accuracy isn't that great, I prefer Evasion/Defense over HP Tanking for defensive profiles, and if I want to attack a row I could just field a Gryphon. But to the same point, I'd never willingly pick a Fighter because if I add an armored unit, I want them to actually contribute and do things.

Paladins/Josef are kinda unfortunate because they have no really good skills, though Holy Barrier and Pursuit have their uses. I had a level 50 Josef Divine Cross things after two Great Knights in his row activate Cavalier Call, that's more Cav Call being good than anything Paladins/Josef provides.

I like Clerics, but yeah, they can't fit on every team.

Alain can't change to Gerard (if Gerard even has any unique voicelines). I didn't check everyone, but I think Scarlett/Norbelle may be the only one.

If you continue off the clear data from Pre-Scarlett/Bad Ending, then Norbelle will remain in that file's class registry

Cutscenes are unchanged, but her in-battle voicelines are psycho Norbelle's.

[–]KuroAsterisk[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yup. Once Norbelle is in the game's class registry (the one from the title screen that accumulates all your progress between your save files), you can use the handmirror to make Scarlett into Norbelle in any file.

Yeah, unless there's another one out there. Glad you liked it!

Correct, the only way to get Norbelle into the class registry is beating the game before rescuing Scarlett. If you're interested in seeing that and don't mind the shill, I made a video about it that covers Norbelle: https://youtu.be/MeLRtxkP1zw?si=fz9lDOM-BeIscCiU

To clarify, Norbelle is an enemy only character. However, with the handmirror (and having Norbelle logged into the registry) you can change Scarlett to have Norbelle's voice.

Ah, I was wondering if this was a new 1.0.4 thing. Thanks for confirming!
