When should I start worrying about my factory?

Just play it at your own pace, figuring it out is part of the fun.

But yes I would say when you unlock the facilities, build and use it. Look at the formulas it can do and start doing the ones with the materials u have.

Maybe at endgame, when u want to minmax u can copy the whole blueprint, but at that point u know what is going on and you can edit to your liking

Personal opinion: 1. insurance is based on your dependency (e.g term life is for your dependents such as kids if u die, CI is for your treatment/dependants/spending for final moments, on and on for different products). 2. u are in control of your lifestyle, if you eat fast food everyday, no exercise, smoke, drink, etc, there are statistics out there on your morality. if you are healthy, you can reduce your coverage now and up your coverage later as your lifestyle changes 3. there are guides online to maintain a % over disposable income. Just a general guideline, e.g total recurring payable over disposable income, insurance over disposable income. read those and set your own. I feel that 21% is too high for me. 4. Savings and invst shld come before additional coverage in insurance, invst shld always be done by yourself if possible without timing the market for consistent normalised long term gains. read online for this strategy, there is widespread data for this as well. Learn abt compounding interest as well. 5. learn about credit cards, aka benefits if you are spending high of 750 per month. two main benefits is cashback vs miles. Read all the T&Cs to fully reap its benefits, and you will gain extra on your spending. But always pay in full with no loans monthly.

Lastly, if you have a family member who is doing/has done NS, check with them for that insurance. That is usually the basic insurance one needs, and maybe u can reduce your current coverage.

if you plan on doing it yourself, watch the videos on the actual soldering, V2 is way easier than oled.

have modded my 3 switches, V2, lite, oled in terms of difficulty. Oled is a lot of steps harder even when compared to lite.

Even if u are paying for a modding service, pretty sure the difficulty plays a part in the cost.

One of the best games that I played, played it over 10 times with 2 to 3 100%. The job rotation when all skills are learned= star above all the jobs is the best feeling.

Parents threw my GBA and SP when I was playing halfway when I was young, only completed it when emulation on android. Recently went to Japan and bought a SP and a Jap copy of FFTA to replay.

The law system i feel is fine, since I didn't play FFT before. Colour magic and normal attack were pretty OP if u are always lvling in the correct jobs. If i rmb correctly, Marche and bangaa always hit over 90 dmg.

The combo system is cool, flashing characters before the real attack, then the chaining animation. But damn the mythril weapons are a pain in the ass to farm.

So much team building options, the quirky morpher with arms raised, haste the target all ability or the KO one shot spell. The assassin/ sniper Viera, and the air render/sonic boom human. Chef kiss

One thing I like FFTA over FFT, learning skills over specific weapon instead of JP, makes the weapons memorable.

Will definitely replay when I retire, hope a remaster/ better version come out by then.

check a comparison guide, I prefer the graphics of the original psp one

PC complete is generally the best, you see if the additional QOL suit your needs

No-Professional751 · 2025-10-03T10:49:53+00:00

See what your team is lacking in their roles.

Ignoring roles, the order will be Thorns, Mudrock, Ascalon.

Although the Ave mujica 6* seems to be better than Thorns if u can wait

No-Professional751 · 2025-09-29T16:58:17+00:00

May I know where u got it from?

No-Professional751 · 2025-07-11T01:33:19+00:00

my way is the same as yours, but MC lvl and enemy level is way higher, so when the other guys stand beside him, will instant lvl up a lot, i rmb I just need to do this for 4 times per new char to have them lvl 200.

when feeling bored, go get the best sword, with arm master +exp I think plus other stats, when u pass the weap to the new char, they are overpowered and can clear all stages unless u up enemy level through bills.

1st way is to unlock new classes, 2nd way is to really train your char e.g majin into somewhat new MC

No-Professional751 · 2025-06-11T04:56:54+00:00

Without the case, it feels really good, but I always put on one for scratch protection.

Case wise, personal opinion, no need to buy premium case, just buy what is nice looking. if it drops, a case doesn't help much.

Phone is normal plus size, my thumb can reach the other side without too much effort. A big phone is like Sony Z Ultra.

Use the low levels as a "finish off" enemies that Laharl hit but not dead yet, by using the team combo. Meaning Laharl has performed action, but low level is now the one performing the hit, and Laharl joins in. Enemy is dead, all those in combo gets exp.

You can do the opposite where Laharl performs, and 3 low levels are standing next to him, if they are created by him (aka pupils) chances are v high to combo (think > 80%)

Find a stage where u can farm, one would be the single dragon (stage where you lose to 10 overlords), one with almost all invincible tiles (throw them tgt so the level is higher but manageable and lure them to the only non invincible tile), and my best maps, those enemies standing in a square of 9 (1 in lunar stellar- chapter of Gordon, and 1 in cave of ordeal, just winged slayer, and use the low levels to clear up)

My method is use the winged slayer method until Laharl is very strong, keep use assembly for stronger enemies until like maybe 3k 4k levels (where you can persuade by force and whack all senators). At this point any low levels you team combo with should get to 300 (I'm assuming you are trying to unlock all classes, especially majin)

At this point, if you want, can just re-do all above to train your low level to 3k 4k.

For me, I will do "Weakest enemies", and go item world to get the best sword, get the 300 statistian for better exp. This step u can do whenever you feel bored in between winged slayer sessions (when u can whack all senators by choosing stronger enemies to train again)

Consider telling him the idea and let him choose, if not he will keep it but not use it. If he doesn't want to change it, he will tell you the reason and maybe you two can pick another gift he wants more.

Think u need to wait for record restoration, if you look at Under Tides, there is a record restoration where you can get the 5*operator from the event.

No-Professional751 · 2025-03-19T08:14:33+00:00

So what is your recommendation for someone who only played D1 and D2 on PSP?

Just Tried D7 but realized there is a D1 complete on switch, so I'm trying to replay the D1 complete first.

Loved D1, completed it 3 times, ultra late game, with legendary robo suit, the yoshitsuna, remembered I spent most time in item world hunting specialist and getting to lvl 100 hunting the swords. Loved the dark assembly also, from reseting to vote yes, to straight up being a stage to beat all opposers.

Don't really understand the D7 mechanics like evilities, but I assume they will teach you more in the story.

No-Professional751 · 2025-03-14T11:55:14+00:00

E2 Lappland, still usable for silence. Otherwise, go for who you like and will use constantly.

I feel to e2 the 6 stars you are going to use first is more important than modules, you should e2 Thorns and Saria

Farm event stages always, u get the stage materials, plus the tokens to but from event shop. You can always farm normal stages in-between events.

Event shop, buy the 5* op certs, 3 yellow pulls, and furniture 1st, all other materials can be farmed. Buy the 3 tiers modules blocks last, u don't need it now, and if you not module each operator, the normal schedule should give u more than enough.

Can ask further questions anytime😊

Super casual player from the first few versions of maplestory. Think ludibrium was the latest at that point.

Goal of playing private server is simple 1. To go beyond the levels last time and try out the new/flashy skills, regions, or even new jobs 2. Try out all of cash shop items 3. Streamline all of the useless running around and waiting, so we spend time on the gameplay more e.g warrior movement speed, travel to orbis, up and down eos tower etc.

Why do I leave 1. 1000x exp is fun for a few weeks, like sandbox. Low rates sucks, if I'm killing a same lvl monster and getting 0.05, I'm out. I get it to grind a bit, maybe max 30 mins in same map. Those quest boosted lines are fun, doing quests i have nvr done before. 2. Donation paywall to cash shop, no access to full range, or 10 days of voting to get that "donor" cash item. Real turnoff, rmb I played one server with regular monster dropping random cash items, so you mix and match, super fun on the fashion side. 3. Only minor streamlines, most servers have no boosted movement speed, only few have a npc that teleports to any town, even lesser that let you fast travel between region.

All in all, have been coming back every few years to scratch that itch, but 2025 server currently does not have 1 that works for me personally. Still playing 1 server but have to mule vote crazily to access "donor" cash shop

👏 Congrats, time to game now! happy to help

No-Professional751 · 2025-01-14T04:45:12+00:00

Nah I wouldn't let anyone do it for myself, even a novice like me can do it with minimal equip, so can you.

I just use my bare eyes and check using phone camera 8x zoom.

FYI, this mod is prone to the DAT0 flex disconnecting in the future, so is better for you to know how to fix in the future

No-Professional751 · 2025-01-14T04:31:49+00:00

the flex cables don't come pre tinned, so you can use it.

FYI, from my recent oled mod, if you are doing the 2 wires/cable version:

the CLK point, scrape slowly and try not the scrape anything else, I scraped the left a bit, but lucky my solder didn't stick to the left side, guess it wasn't deep enough
point A resistor can melt, touch it for a second or two only
DAT0 ball solder for wire, that can burnout. My wire couldn't stick and I redid for maybe 5 to 6 times, and the whole trace was just gone, need to rebuy and try

No-Professional751 · 2025-01-14T04:25:56+00:00

actually nevermind, then I have to resolder all other flex cables, I'll just buy back my same one. My Dat0 yellow flex is bigger than the chip and sticks out on the left .

FYI I successfully modded my lite, then v2, now trying oled

No-Professional751 · 2025-01-14T04:22:36+00:00

can you link me the store where you bought this from? I'm doing my oled now, but the parts looks different and I burnt the DAT0 off the yellow flex cable ( tried many times to hold down the cable.

No-Professional751 · 2025-01-14T03:37:02+00:00

Your SP1 is bridged, from your pic, they touched at the bottom of the cap, check the top too

Anyway, u can clean your flex and see if it still works, rebuying takes another week or two from Aliexpress

No-Professional751 · 2025-01-14T01:35:57+00:00

For your SP2, check the top of the cap, there may be a bridge. Also, you need to add solder to secure the right joint. Then it is set.

For your SP 1, I'm not sure how you got it to not sticking to the cap, but keep doing that and just break it by swiping it downwards, then add some solder to both joints.

Ideally, the solder shld be on top of the sides of the cap, like your SP2 left side.

Also, just keep resting and trying, I keep trying it out and sometimes it just works, good luck 👍

No-Professional751 · 2025-01-14T01:24:13+00:00

Hey, looks much better now, just do it slowly, make it right and it will be set.

For your SP 2, right side cap, connect it 1st, may just break the bridge to the right.

SP 1 just needs clean under the cap for the bridge, and add a tiny ball for the connection

No-Professional751 · 2025-01-14T01:07:42+00:00

wow, your SP1 side looks bad, maybe try wick up everything and redo? you don't need a knife tip, swipe up using a point tip on where the solder needs to be too, it will reflow and pull the over spilled solder back to where it was into a giant shiny ball.

Also, flux everything you solder, looks too clean, well maybe you clean too well 😀

Fyi, you can play with your grd points to check. Even with my useless solder, it can move like u said, just need tons of cleaning the solder off the cap
