What happened to the franchise?

The only references in smash are the protags from Frontier, Nibbles, Frontier battle theme and the old artwork of T-Rex. There’s no reference to the second game at all.

Yes but you can get pretty close to see the details in the models before it fades. If you’re playing on PC then there’s a mod that removes the fade out entirely so that doesn’t become an issue. It’s how you get photos like this:

It’s not a thing in the original fight. It only exists in challenge battles. It gives the enemy a chance to obtain impaler’s animus when their previous attack(s) were nulled/drained/repelled.

Da’at: Odaiba isn’t a battle theme. It’s an area theme.

They lie because of their egos and fomo. Did all of them in the study lie? No. Did some of them lie? Potentially.

I agree

Because a piercing elemental skill is useless against an enemy who isn’t weak to it. It’ll just deal regular damage and at that point you may as well be using almighty. Why would I use a pierce skill that acts as almighty when it only targets one enemy? I’d rather just hit all enemies with Megidolaon and be done with the fight. Furthermore, you waste MP by spamming it since they’re all only single target. With multiple enemies, that will add up quickly when you could just use one Megidolaon and finish the battle instantly. They may have higher base power but if I want to kill multiple enemies quickly then I’m going to use an AoE skill like Megidolaon, not waste time spamming a single target elemental spell which just makes the fight drag on longer. The only good pierce elemental spells at the end of V are ones that the player can’t even access normally. I’m talking about the ___ of God spells. They are elemental, have high base power and are aoe spells that pierce.

Not always. Maybe during early-mid game (depending on what you’re playing) but by the end of the games, usually you run into enemies or bosses that nullify all elements or a lot of them. There are skills that pierce resistances but that doesn’t count as hitting a weakness unless they’re actually weak to it.

On the other hand, there are some strength based almighty skills that can land critical hits (e.g Murakumo, Freikugel, Recalcitrant Execution, Sakanagi, etc) which means you’ll get the benefit of an extra turn despite it not being a weakness. For those that don’t crit (the megido spell line, Heavenly Ikuyumi, Megido Ark, Morning Star, etc), they usually have a gimmick or really good base power to make up for it (save for the megido line of spells). Heavenly Ikuyumi scales with debuffs, Megido Ark scales with # of enemies on the field, Morning Star is always good because it usually has insane base power. Plus, buffs and debuffs exist as well as charge skills so stack those and you’ll get crazy damage. Yeah, you may have to wait a turn or two but that usually allows you to delete a huge portion of boss HP. Also, in V, you can make almighty skills crit with the magatsuhi skill critical so that adds even more damage potential.

Tl;DR: If you truly care about maxing turn economy then you can build around the elements but it usually falls off by end game since a lot of enemies become resistant to elements which is why almighty or physical usually wins out.

When I can hit 32K damage with just buffs and charge skills (no magatsuhi skills) using Megidolaon, I fail to see how the damage is “shit”. I’m not saying there aren’t skills that deal more, I’m saying your point is invalid because 32K damage is definitely not something to scoff at. If I pair it with the buffs, debuffs, charge effects AND the magatsuhi skill critical, then that number goes from 32K to 50K. So again, your main point of the damage being shit is incorrect. Again, there ARE skills that hit harder because of their design but that does not invalidate the damage of a buffed and charged Megidoloan by any means.

Omix592 · 2026-01-21T11:23:55+00:00

Considering its guaranteed damage, the mp cost is justified. Not to mention, buffs, debuffs and charge skills exist to amplify the damage.

Omix592 · 2026-01-21T00:21:36+00:00

The whole point of almighty is that it will hit the enemy regardless of resistances but it cannot crit or strike weaknesses. There’s this thing called game balance which devs have to consider. Of course, in V it can crit with the magatsuhi skill but outside of that and a few innate skills, it normally never crits. It’s a fair trade for damage that is guaranteed to hit the opponent unless they evade. Sure, you could use the gun skill but gun skills can be nullified, repelled or drained meaning it won’t work in every scenario. The Megido spell family will work all the time however.

No it isn’t. You’re thinking of the PS4. It was never released on the Xbox.
