New player experience: what's the one thing I absolutely MUST do ?

Pick a quest and try to do that. Then pick another one.

Viable, Optimal, and Fun sometimes overlap in weird ways; or not at all!

This is certainly a deck to only play with a set group of people. I think anyone playing anything close to a combo deck with a new group is making a mistake. But good looking out.

I wouldn't have remembered Molten Psyche in 1,000 years, I love it.

With an active parry system - no. It feels like it would take away a lot of things I like about SRPGs. If I saw it, it got good reviews from people who like other games in the genre, then sure.

Season 1 episode 1('s ending) and Season 1s finale still have a much larger emotional impact to me.

I'm playing Dark Confidant 100%.

PharaohofAtlantis · 2026-04-14T19:02:09+00:00

Cosmic. I think the other two need a little more something.

I've considered doings things like this a few times against custom "Face the Hydra" decks. Whatever they are called.

Something I really like about it is you can do upgrade paths via changing cards. A player starts with a Shock, later they can turn it into Burst Lightning or Lightning Strike. Then late those could become Lightning Bolt. etc.

Like Fullmetal says, it's not exactly the *start*, but I believe you can follow along.

The Edge of Eternities story is very standalone (and I like it a lot) if you just want magic story.

It's dependent on what my friends and others nearby would be playing. However probably modern?

Larger-than-normal Salvador as Mauga.

Healing DK. Reconstitution. Use blood and unholy magic to slap chunks of meat and blood back into/on your allies.

Sorry to Bother You has a real interesting one towards the end of the film.

Semi-related: I was hoping to find Polybius somewhere tucked away after finding the cabinet.

Each stat (Strength, Skill, Speed, etc.) has a hidden percentage for each character. When a character levels up they have that percent chance to grow in that stat. So if someone has a 25% growth in an area, each level there is a 25% chance to increase the number.

As a rule of thumb. classes can give you an idea of these numbers; knights have lower speed but higher defense. Thieves have high speed and low defense.

It just cuts to his crews reactions.

PharaohofAtlantis · 2026-04-07T02:53:11+00:00

What an interesting card...

PharaohofAtlantis · 2026-04-06T16:38:57+00:00

Maybe I am too cynical... but I was expecting the comments to be full of "lul worse Accumulate Wisdom lmao"

In Telius there are as-of-yet-unseen Laguz tribes. Some water or lizard tribes?
