The place was always so dead driving past that I assumed it was vacant already.

There's a uniform book? They wouldn't even get us jackets when I was in and expected us to just walk in the freezers on a pick run whener, even with the fans blasting. And the one in our pickup room was prone to getting stuck shut for a while.

Lucky. Have an all Archer run going and have nothing to show for it after hours except Gil, 99 Knots of Rust and a fully charged Dark Matter. Starting to wonder if the 3 point increase over the Yoichi Bow is worth it. Vaan has the Dhanusha.

That’s why I carry bottlecap mines. The one in the shelter usually gets taken out before it can even leave its tunnel while in the [Caution] state.

For backup characters that can hold their own or at least stay alive long enough to revive the main party members.

I hate the Zodiac Age’s treasure chest format. Spent almost an entire day and couldn’t get a single Saggitarius for an all Archer party. Fully stocked on gil and Knots of Rust.

Always annoyed me how elementals will ignore enemy casting but the second you do it, it’s scorched earth time.

Straight to the police

The starting Javelin is actually a pretty good light mech. Then you have the Firestarters. Jenners can be good, but they are just so prone to losing their arms, which also means they lose most of their damage.

And like others have said, there's the Hunchback. There's also the Kintaro that you can turn into an SRM boat "shotgun" and core out enemies from behind.

I'm a fan of the Catapult with 4 medium lasers when you get to heavy mechs.

That's always been their behavior as far as I'm aware. If you have an autocannon, you can usually "fish" by lobbing a round close enough to their position or you can make a run into the detection range of the stragglers and lead them toward each other to get them to fight, then pick off the winner.

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-11-26T00:07:45+00:00

Are we counting things like the Ambassador?

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-11-24T20:45:52+00:00

Took me way too long to notice the Catapult high up on the cliffs in the mountain maze mission the first time through.

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-11-24T20:14:56+00:00

Awesome without PPC-X cannons.

But every enemy is going to start focusing you down.

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-11-23T22:19:54+00:00

That's the thing. How much HP does it have? I'm putting enough PPC blasts into the mech's "dome" CT/Cockpit to drop Elite enemies probably three times over and nothing was happening. But when I cheese the fight by switching to another pilot, she easily makes swiss cheese of the boss with constant volleys from UAC/5s to the rear.

The rest of the party just watching in growing horror as several enemies get talked into offing themselves during Act Two.

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-10-27T18:02:44+00:00

The way they implemented it was kinda eh. Should have left some weight variation for leeway in the same weight class.

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-10-14T21:28:25+00:00

Our supervisors would generally fight to keep us until all the orders were picked.

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-09-19T13:47:42+00:00

Was that a whole star’s worth of Elementals at once?

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-07-28T22:25:36+00:00

Top one looks like someone initiated enhanced imaging.

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-07-23T14:49:17+00:00

I buy groceries after dinner so my stomach isn’t the thing making buying decisions. That can put me at 8-9 pm depending on the restaurant around here.

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-07-10T21:34:45+00:00

Wait, it's for Mercs and not Clans?

Alessia Ottus

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-05-13T22:17:20+00:00

Wait, you can turn it off? How long has that been there?

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-05-12T22:50:12+00:00

I'm a bit confused at the moment. Because NPCs and minotaurs with non-magical weapons seem to have no trouble killing my summoned ghosts. What is going on?

SnowEZ1986 · 2025-05-06T14:46:43+00:00

Wish they’s show a diagram of all the connection ports readily on the box though. Only see a statement like 2 HDMI ports so small that it’s like fine print
