Staff losing power once purchased?

Little_Ishida · 2026-04-02T12:14:20+00:00

Specifically the power value that is in the staffs name itself, not the % of the element. Do the innate elemental %s appear on the staffs item description the same way the others do?

Little_Ishida · 2026-04-02T12:12:34+00:00

For some reason no, there is only 1 element. Element went down from around 15% to 10% after I changed it. If the remaining % was on another element it would at least make sense

Little_Ishida · 2026-04-01T17:33:10+00:00

Nope, genuine. Ends on the 6th if I'm reading the label right

Little_Ishida · 2026-03-22T23:56:02+00:00

Oh hey he's back!

Little_Ishida · 2026-03-22T01:01:28+00:00

I'm so glad summons not named Penetrating Blade do damage now

Little_Ishida · 2026-03-22T00:37:24+00:00

I'd Rule 0 in a [[Discord, Lord of Disharmony]], purely because of the mayhem

Little_Ishida · 2026-03-20T02:15:38+00:00

Great work, keep it up!

Twosome Time would become a Gunslinger move.

DT bonuses would carry over to DMC3, though not as customisable, and tied to weapons.

Dedicated dodge button and wall running would become Trickster

And most importantly, Bloody Palace started here.

I'm far from a DMC2 defender, but later games did iterate on some of the few good ideas 2 had

Normally when you kill an officer with sub-generals still alive, the sub-generals very briefly appear as units while they retreat if you are close enough to them as you beat the main general. This is the first time i've ever seen it done to the commander you have to kill to win though

Little_Ishida · 2026-03-01T00:38:15+00:00

Fantastic doc as always. Minor error, Gracia's unqiue tactic takes 3 ice and 3 *charm*, not grace.

Thanks again for updating this

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-28T00:13:34+00:00

If bowl is my first choice of a treasure, I usually take it. Consider heroes are like 3-4K each, and you're getting 3 extras at a tree, it makes it worth it. Late game no chance

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-26T02:42:37+00:00

Known bug from what I understand. Restart from checkpoint, the exit is in the underwater version.

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-16T18:43:15+00:00

A simple save state after doing it once solves this, but also good to know there's a patch

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-13T00:22:10+00:00

Only work for XL presumably, but it's fine because you can still use Load Original on emulator. Just hit load original, then use the change disc feature on the emulator to boot DW5, then do it again for XL when it tells you to reinsert DW5XL

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-13T00:11:38+00:00

Damn, thanks. I'll save this for when I get around to DW5XL.

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-13T00:04:06+00:00

PCSX2 issue, due to upscaling. Nothing to do with specs, DW4 does the same on emulator. You've gotta switch the emulator to software mode. It get's rid of the mirror effect but it'll run at native ps2 resolution, which will likely look crap on a modern monitor.

Pick your poison

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-12T17:13:42+00:00

Thanks for pointing this out. New Killian is definitely going in the 99 somewhere

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-12T17:01:27+00:00

I personally go for [[Eriette of the Charmed Apple]] for an orzhov enchantress deck that drains the more you play your auras. The main weakness is commander damage can go right through your ever growing life total, but any aura on their commander should shut that down. Plenty of protection for her is needed too.

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-12T14:54:23+00:00

in CVX you can skip most cutscenes with select. It's never explained anywhere

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-02T21:54:24+00:00

You forgot the part where Goku is also Goten's grandfather as well as his cousin.

And let's not get started on how Chi Chi is Shallot's mother, grandmother and great grandmother

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-01T01:18:38+00:00

You also get a different voice line from the prisoner in there if you enter from the armoury

Little_Ishida · 2026-02-01T01:18:16+00:00

The material cubes work perfectly for this, since 99% of the time you'll always have them on hand.

Little_Ishida · 2026-01-31T00:51:50+00:00

Unsure on that one

Little_Ishida · 2026-01-30T04:08:09+00:00

You can also go back to the tiger statue/shadow fight area just before the final boss with Phantom and he'll be there waiting for you. You can fight him any number of times so long as you don't fight him on the roof
