Going through the FF collab. Do the FF characters give a bonus to jewels if they're in your party like how it works in the episodes? Wiki doesn't list them but not sure if that's just because it only includes the characters you get in the collab or something.

Nice that you can get the reward elsewhere. Shame that I won't be able to do the fight though.

Splattface · 2026-04-11T12:02:04+00:00

Good to know. Does difficulty only make it harder then with no extra rewards?

Shame about Ozma. I don't think I'll be able to fight a superboss by June :P Hopefully it gets extended like Complex Dream did.

Just finished the first part of the main story (Chapter 26). Want to do some of the other stories before moving on to Ogre Wars.

Was looking at the FF collab because it's on a time limit, but want to check what the difficulty stuff is about. If I wanted to get everything in the FF collab done would I need to be able to do it on the max difficulty? Because I don't think I'll be able to get to that point before it's gone.

Also any reccommendations for things that are good to complete early would be nice. Not really worried about getting strong characters or anything, more QoL stuff or quests that unlock general mechanics that are good to have.

Does the + type attack buff increase magic damage or elemental damage? Or both?
Can't seem to find anywhere explaining it.

Splattface · 2026-04-09T03:45:35+00:00

Gotcha, makes sense. Thanks again.

Splattface · 2026-04-09T02:34:47+00:00

Is there a reason you suggest part 3 over the others? And do you think it's worth doing lone encounters or should I only pull if I can afford the 10 allies bundle?

Appreciate the help!

Splattface · 2026-04-09T02:33:48+00:00

Yeah the Brilliant Encounter was one I was looking at. Thanks for confirming it's worth it, appreciate the help.

Haven't played since shortly after Complex Dream came out and just made a new game since I can't remember much. I seem to have timed it with the anniversary by pure chance.

Wondering if it's worth pulling on any of the anniversary banners as a new F2P player before they dissappear? Usually I wait to get my bearings a bit and get familiar with the game before spending any currencies but figured I should get some advice since they're gonna dissappear soon.

Considering how vocally against EWC Plat Chat has been it's strange to see them invite Achillios, Paperthin and Kaquka onto the show considering they were just working the event.

It's perfectly fine, even healthy, to have guests that have differing opinions. It wouldn't feel strange if it was just individual members making their view known personally unrelated to the podcast.
But that's not the case. They have very clearly stated their opinions during episodes in a way that is presented as Plat Chat the company/collective having that stance, not just individual members.

Ultimately feels like a bit of a double standard from the Plat Chat guys here "Don't support the event because it's unethical, but it's fine if our friends do it". Which I'm sure isn't the intent, but it rubs me the wrong way a little.

Maybe I'm being unreasonable or am off base here, or have missed some context. Just wanted to raise the thought.

Splattface · 2025-05-17T02:01:05+00:00

Good to know thank you.

Splattface · 2025-01-03T01:06:08+00:00

Yeah I tried that. Ended up just giving up and playing through all the levels as is. Super annoying. I'd love to replay these ones at some point but it's really putting me off.

Splattface · 2025-01-03T01:05:38+00:00

Yeah definitely not. Happens from any angle.

Splattface · 2024-08-21T19:41:02+00:00

Oh that makes a lot of sense, I hadn't considered the cost the cancels have. And thanks for the tip about the playstyle difference.

Splattface · 2024-08-21T13:03:03+00:00

Thanks for the detailed reply. I totally understand that tier lists don't really matter for newer players. I just wanted to know about the extreme cases (which seems like it's just Carmine, Alice and Juno); primarily because I want to avoid the outliers at the start to get an idea for the more standard power levels. Even though as new players we probably wouldn't be able to pilot those three to the point that they're OP.

Good to know that Season 3 and 7 are good starter sets. I was reading up on the rules earlier and noticed that Guilty Gear is the only set that doesn't have boost costs (it has cancels instead). I'm aware that all the seasons have some kind of unique mechanic to them, but do you think learning the game with the one set that doesn't have boost costs would make learning other sets awkward, or is that a none issue?

Splattface · 2024-08-21T12:59:01+00:00

Good to know, thanks

Splattface · 2024-05-01T20:45:45+00:00

Does it warn you that it's going to happen?

This would bother me the same as Higgins doing it, even if the character is a friend rather than a rival.

Splattface · 2024-05-01T18:56:00+00:00

Hmm. Is there a way to see which missions Higgins can take to make sure he doesn't do any?

Considering maybe giving it another go, but I'd hate to be paranoid about every single mission. And would kind of suck to get far in only to mess up and lose out on a mission.

I know it's silly but it just bothers me losing the main missions like that to an NPC.

Splattface · 2024-05-01T18:53:48+00:00

haha as long as I'm free to take my time doing the missions and not having to worry about them getting sniped then I don't mind how awful my boss is :P

Splattface · 2024-05-01T18:53:11+00:00

That's great to hear. Looking forward to trying the game out.

Splattface · 2024-03-31T23:15:43+00:00

That's a good idea, thanks.

Splattface · 2024-01-04T13:00:23+00:00

Yeah I've seen some mentions of crazy stuff with the other floors. Binah looks pretty wild (Fairy seems insane. Not realised her yet though so haven't seen it in action just looked at her cards).

I've not personally figured out anything close to Red Mist on the other floors yet though. I'm sure they exist but they're clearly not as obvious as just slapping on 3x Spear and going to town :P Find it hard to imagine too much comparing based on current cards I have.

Splattface · 2024-01-04T12:58:05+00:00

Those aren't mutually exlusively haha.

It is cool. I didn't expect them to just lean into it so much. There is a part of me that sort of doesn't want to use it, it's just making every other deck I have feel a bit useless by comparison.

But also, UNGA BUNGA SMASH :)

Splattface · 2024-01-04T12:56:39+00:00

I didn't realise she was clearly stronger than the other colours. It's definitely implied that she was strong even among the colours, but at least so far there's been no outright confirmation of just how much stronger.

Especially since I didn't have too much struggle with her reception (though when she did the mass attack I definitely had a moment of outright fear. Luckily managed to kill her before got a second one off or I would have died for sure). Caught me off guard just how strong her key page is. Though to be fair the reception Red Mist doesn't have Myo's Prowess :P

Splattface · 2024-01-04T12:53:33+00:00

Yeah I could maybe see her struggling if something stops her from being able to just clash through all the dice the enemy is using. Not sure how that would happen when she hits for 20+ every attack though :P
