    Because I love everything about this game.

    Also, end of chap.2,
    Victor and Victoria COMPLETELY crushed me when I went to Olivia. It wasn't fair. I guess level 32 is too low to face them. And I did get all the asterisks so far, including Red Mage.
    Did you hard reset immediately or something? That's a supposed-to-lose fight. Unless you just need to survive a certain minimum amount of rounds; I'm not sure. Throwing around poison immunity should buy you a few turns either way.
    Haha, it is? I totally stomped them, to the point that Victoria got "sick" or something and they ran off. I maaaaay have overleveled :P

    uh no
    victoria ALWAYS gets sick and leaves. that's scripted. your next meeting might not be as pleasant as she will use some nasty new spells.

    I love that fight.
    because afterward, my Agnés became a Dalek.

    The condition and location of the game's multiple endings is a pretty big spoiler

    I will just work my way through the game then:)

    You may actually want to get to an earlier ending before you get the best ending. Because
    getting an early ending deposits you at the point you left off so you can keep working toward the best ending.

    However you may also not want to do that, because you don't want to be too weak for the boss. I don't know if you can actually get stuck or not.

    Like someone else said, there's new game+ as well, so no problem if you miss anything.

    I just got into chapter 3, and the game is still a delight.

    I wonder if I'm overleveled though? I'm at 36 across the board.

    Thief/Spell Fencer Edea is so much fun. Spell blade + mug or life steal whenever she gets low.


    That's about right, also don't worry about being over leveled, the difficulty ramps up at a steady pace.

    Yeah, they pop back up later than that. The classes from them are amazing. Well, Victor's is amazing, Victoria's is nice for stats and passives and has potential... but it's not the enemy-trolling hax of Victor's.

    Victoria's is great for sweeping normal battles if you're willing to burn the MP on it, and okay for bosses once you poison them and go into Dalek Mode, if they're not resistant to Dark.

    I think that New Game Plus was basically the penicillin of the RPG-genre.

    Or maybe more like scrubbing before surgery.

    My "update data" option doesn't work -- it's grayed out. Any ideas why?

    Wifi connectivity?

    I have wifi enabled -- when I go to the home screen it says "Internet" and I can add friends, access the e-shop. I'm really not sure why the game thinks I'm not connected to the internet.

    This the demo or full game?
    This is the demo -- I'm trying to finish out the demo before starting the full game.

    Update Data is disabled in the demo.

    Well, I'm an idiot.

    Getting the town to max is going to take a bit too long, then. Thanks!

    @moxt It's easy to level up the town. Just get about 20 Villagers using this this.

    Thanks -- I ended up using that and maxed out the town fast.

    How'd I miss the Red Mage asterisk? I talked to DeRosa, and I see the exclamation point over Florem, but nothing I do there triggers a fight.

    Night.
    That one is pretty shoddily designed, frankly; you effectively trigger the same cut scene twice with different endings.
    Mrgrgr...
    Stupid day/night timer. Oh well, guess I know what I'm doing after work... Sailing back to Florem.
    Once you have triggered the unsuccessful tailing cutscene you need to find a girl in town to talk to that

    arcanist has not been useful at all. if I want a sweeper it's summoner. though summoner wants that arcanist ability. set up 2x mana drain and 2x amp'd summons and the spirit master buff, wipes everything out for no cost.

    Sleep - Twilight is a really good grinding combo if you ignored summoner.

    And more bosses than you think are not immune to poison. Get it on them, and the arcanist is laughing.

    The Freelancer job gains bonuses based on how many jobs you have mastered, I'm assuming that it's just ridiculously powerful if you master all the jobs.

    It looks like the freelancer class gets a bonus to it's stats for every mastered class.
    I'd imagine if one had the patience to master 20 some odd classes, the stat bonuses would be impressive.

    If they get first strike with two of them there's a non-zero chance they can kill my whole team unless I have wind resistance up

    According to this you get 1% bonus to your base stats for each job mastered.

    I guess if you master all of them that's solid bonus, if not exactly huge.

    Play your cards right, and your Spiritmaster can make it so he/she doesn't need to heal. :)
    Hasten World takes a ton of bite out of their abilities. Sprinkle in a use or two of Convert BP, and you can be damn near invincible to almost anything.

    Salve-maker is a really awesome healing class too, what with how you can combine a phoenix down and a hi-potion to make a full revive, and how you can remove status effects from your entire party with one action, but the thing it really lacks is a strong full-party heal since X-potions are kind hard to come by (at least so far for me).

    Kinda wish they had just named the class alchemist or chemist like in most other Final Fantasies. Makes more sense in terms of the asterisk owner's actions as well.
    I kind of doubt he poisoned everyone on the battlefield via a salve.

    Energy Burst is PHYSICAL?!
    I always thought it was magical. Then again, I should have noticed that the Spell Fencer passive wasn't proccing off the Energy Burst...

    Surviving the energy burst in itself was a problem for me since I had to be near full HP and defaulting to survive, but everyone would be so low on HP the next round Braved 2x Health Suck would kill two more people unless I Seconded a heal. I think next time I fight that boss, Agnes is getting the Hermes to out prioritise the boss. Edea and Ringabel are going to have SO MUCH FUN when/if they rematch it after picking up Swordmaster...

    The vast majority of enemy attacks are physical. Unless it's a spell learnt by the White Mage, Black Mage, Time Mage, Summoner, Arcanist or Spiritmaster, there's a good chance it's physical.

    X-Potion is a Norende-item.

    I'll reiterate: The general item-shop, the Combat Items-shop, and the shop with the compound-things give you stuff for free. So two of those shops are very powerful in the early game, when you can't even afford the non-free stuff from other shops.

    It's not asking you to use the ability, it's asking you to view the compounding list in the journal.

    By the time you'd have all of that it shouldn't take all of those supports to hit 9999 with amped strike.

    That would do some obscene damage during a bravely second with some special buffs to attack and crit though.
    yeah i could take off 30% attack i guess
