Thanks for your trouble man, the increased res does so much for the image quality of those trees.


The single biggest problem with every Wii game, the poly count, geometry, models, effects, textures - it's all tolerable, but that atrocious image quality due to 480p... just ugh.

Bam!

And just like that, Arc Rise Fantasia Dolphin has more HD towns than FFXIII. :lol

How the hell do I get back to the other island,the one with the initial town and Jada...completly stomped now on not knowing where to go hehe...after about 15 hours spoiler:

Spoiler

Adele`s story and Serge`s surprise and the whole thing in Olquina,there`s only me,Ryfia and Niko left now

Just press + to pause the game and there's a summary what happened last and where to go next in the lower left. It's updated extremely frequently, too. Very handy when you've stopped playing for a day or two and forgot what to do.

 

[Ricker]

You sir, just gave me the inspiration to continue. I felt like I might have to start over. Funny enough though, I stopped playing this at this part, but still wanted to play a RPG so I popped back in my FF13 which I had not touched since it was released and got caught up in that. Now I'll be knee deep in two RPGS. :lol

Also who is the kid with the red hair again?... I swear his va sounds like they were trying to impersonate Jerry Sienfeld. Maybe its just me, but when he says stuff during battle, I just crack up.

That`s Niko,the supposed comic relief of the game...his voice acting is pretty bad at first,but like the rest it seems it gets a little better as you go...and yeah,one of his battle cry cracks me up also...````here we GOOoooOOO!!!`` ....I like his level up animation though hehe...

Ah, on the topic of Trinity Excel Acts, I've managed to create others now aside from the water-elemental one you get in the beginning, but I'm not sure if it depends on the casters, the elements of the casters, the levels, or the elements of the cast spells or what.

Spoiler

I did an Earth Trinity Excel Act with L'Arc, Rastan and Leslie using Fire -> Ice -> Untyped Excel Acts.

...

Yeah, it doesn't make any sense to me, either.

The level of magic is based on the gem you put into the orb, if you can put two gems in then put two gems of the same type into the orb and you'll have level 2 magic for that element. Later you'll get gems of higher levels that'll naturally let you have 2 or 3 level magic and you can combine them to get even higher.

14 hours in and still enjoying it. Seriously, the battle system in this game saves it. Just fought my first secret boss/enemy through the Guild and it was nearly impossible, at first! I love how all the equipment in this game actually matters. All weapons feel like they have their uses due to their innate secret arts and gems that cannot be removed. This boss I was fighting kept killing me in two turns. The boss was called Death Scythe and on it's second turn it would use this move that would confuse my party members basically resulting in a game over every time.

Well, I analyzed his stats with an item, and saw that he was weak against earth. I ran back to town and gave two party members earth orbs and maxed out their LV1 MP to 9. I also bought fire charms which give you a better resistance to confusion. Anyway, I went back to this asshole and used all of my AP turns between the two characters with earth orbs. Linking spells is SO ESSENTIAL in this game. If you cast the same spell linked together over and over again in one turn there seems to be some sort of multiplier. I had like a 700% damage increase on this boss and I killed him in TWO turns! So awesome!

The stats are perfect and the game feels tight. Whoever the battle programmers were really understood how to make an engaging battle system. There have not been too many classic, turn based RPGs recently, let alone ones that feel like they have well thought out systems, but this game is definitely doing something right!

One thing to note is that opposing elements will react negatively to each other, meaning that your two level 1 fire gems will combine to lvl 2, but when you connect a water gem to either of them, it'll knock them down to lvl 1 again.


Fire x Water and Wind x Earth are combinations to avoid.

The other gem combinations unlock new elements.

But you can avoid that effect by making sure they don't actually touch (right?) i.e. fire and water can coexist so long as there's an earth or wind between them, on both sides.

When can you buy more element gems? I bought more slots but unfortunatly have no more gems for the characters. Also a bit confused in the magic shop about the + 1 for level one. Is this leveling each level magic seperatly? I'm a bit confused.

I don't think you can buy elemental shards. I've just been finding them by talking to people in towns and in dungeons, I believe. I am 15 hours in and never saw a shop yet so maybe later they are able to be purchased? I think I just learned that you can steal them from bosses, which I wish I knew ahead of a time. =(

Anyway, magic works like this. The slot extension only adds another orb slot to your characters wheel. If you place two orbs of the same element, for example, two water orbs, then your water magic for that character will be level 2 and you will have access to level 2 water spells.

The upgrades below the slot extension in the magic shop are MP upgrades for each level of magic. I believe the max MP you can acquire is 9 for each level. I also believe that the max amount of orbs you can equip is 5 per character. So, say you equipped 1 of each orb element then you would only have access to level 1 magic for each element. There would be no need to upgrade your level 2, 3, or 4 MP parameters because you need to have multiples of the same element to access higher levels.

But as I mentioned, say you equip two water orbs to a character, you should then pump some upgrades into the level 2 MP parameter. And yes, as you mentioned, all MP levels are kept separate. Beneath the MP upgrades are elemental magic upgrades for each base element. I believe these just increase the effect of the spells. I am not 100% sure about those upgrades yet, but I am assuming those just make offensive spells stronger and healing spells more effective?

Also, since each upgrade requires DP and there is a set amount of DP to distribute you technically cannot upgrade everything and there is no way to have access to every spell for every character. The best way to tackle this game is if you get to a boss that is too strong, check out his weakness and try and equip an orb of that elemental weakness on two characters so you can link spells together and deal TONS of damage.

I have Ryfia always with a water orb with max level 1 MP at 9 so I can heal whenever. Since you can reset your orb customization, for a price, you will most likely be altering your strategies as you get further, but money doesn't seem like too much of a problem later on.

Do the game's enemies get harder the further your in? I usually grind until enemies on the world map give me less than 1000 XP. Fucking bullshit I grind like mad and then as I advance the story just a little bit, the enemies are 3 levels higher than me.

It's pretty rough sometimes, yes. I didn't feel the need to grind yet, but there are some bosses who represent tough challenges. Regular enemies, not so much. Definitely keep your HP high and don't be afraid to use tons of items, they're cheap (not that money matters much once you get the appropriate gem/accessory) and cost few AP to use. I'm only a couple hours further in than you.

You're probably talking about Clyde in the ruins, which is pretty much one of the toughest battles up to that point, imo.

I'm stumped myself on one of the optional guild quests -

So I unlocked the super Excel Act thing where you get an extra super attack if you sync 3 Excel Acts. Is Mystic Fortune the only thing there is? If there are other attacks, how do you determine what it will be?

Just got the first one also(love how they introduce those,saved my butt this time) so i`m wondering how this will work as well...I had Cecille,Rastan and LÀrc in my group when it happened but it could of easily been Ryfia and Niko so would it had been another spell with these 3?...

I just got through the jungle and unlocked some things related to the BADASS battle system, who's the programmer, really?

The battle programmer and designer is Osamu Hisano, he also did the battle systems in Tales of Symphonia and Tales of the Abyss. I felt he had quite a broken approach to 3D Tales battle systems with free-run so it's nice to see he can apparently do better when not working within Tales' linear motion battle system.

I'm pretty sure it depends on the strength of the Excel Acts. Low rank Excel Acts (like, 3-4 AP) will result in Mystic Fortune, stronger ones (5-7 AP) in Geo Impact.

Apparently, there are also character-dependent Trinity Excel Acts, but I don't know how those are triggered exactly

Spoiler

only have Leslie's Crimson Shoot atm.

If anyone has an idea about how these work, I'd be happy to hear it.

I don't get it, or I'm weak and I have to upgrade my weapons and magic, or the game is just terribly unbalanced, and force me to spend time grinding for the next boss, then advancing in the story and then grinding again for the other boss and so on..

Nope,Boss battles are all over the place,not sure if they tweaked them wrong from the Japanese version or if it`s like that but it just happened to me again in Ebur,the Boss killed 2 of my guys,who where at full HP in one hit on it`s first turn,and left the 2 others barely alive and it went downhill from there...this time,on top of that,the save spot is at the beginning of the dungeon so I basically played 45 minutes for nothing(I can see why they did that for this section but it`s still annoying)....everyone is level 28 so I guess i`ll grind to 30 and see how it goes after...luckily,with the auto battles tactics thing,it`s not that hard to grind,I go adaptive and if that doesn`t clean up,I go attack only on the next turn.

Clyde, you definitely need to get rid of his 3 cronies before their turn comes up, so he's not getting those buffs on the first turn. Best to charge up the Rogress Bar beforehand and hit them with Simmah immediately. Also useful is to give someone the "Dark" gem combination (Fire and Earth I think) to get the Lvl 2 Dispel spell which removes his buffs. He should be hard, but doable at your level.

He is definitely one of the harder (maybe even the hardest) bosses in the game, though.

Ah, right, that one.

Spoiler

Yeah, that's by far his single most dangerous attack (actually one-shotted my whole party as well the first time around) - he only does it at the very start, and maybe once or twice throughout the whole fight, though. So if you're in a position to survive this, he should be manageable.

And about game length, I guess it's necessary to unlock your weapon gems and complete some guild quests to stand a chance against some of these bosses, so that's inflating the time a bit. But yeah, I'd be surprised if someone completed the game under 50 to 60 hours the first time around. I'm already past that and I'm not done yet. >_>

[Datschge]

This is getting off-topic. In short: (2D) Tales battles systems starting with Eternia are all about speed and tight controls. This is essentially possible without being too overwhelming due to the linear motion battle system (LMBS) making you focus on one targeted enemy at a time. Now Symphonia brought this to 3D, with the huge internal contradiction that players still moved on the linear line to the target while the AI was able to move essentially freely. In Abyss instead of fixing this contradiction they (said Hisano and Go Murai) just added a wholly separate system on the top of LMBS: free run. As a result the 3D battle systems never reached the speed of the 2D counterparts. That is until Graces came and downgraded free run to a rather useless bonus and instead extended LMBS itself with the abilities to not only quickly step back and forward but also sideways around the target, finally bringing 2D speed to 3D.

Oh, I get it. I guess "broken" kind of means different things for different people, I took it in another context...

Yet another Boss that you get trounced the first time you meet him(in the ravine section),if you don`t have the right magic set-up so you can synch a chain attack to do tons of damage,and you can`t know which one before hand...this is staring to get on my nerves,fought the thing for about 20 minutes but I knew it was hopeless,especially with the annoying reconstruct from those crystals and the triple/quadruple attacks the Boss does in row,that do lots of damage...there`s almost always someone dead that you need to waste 2 AP to revive and 2 AP on attack to destroy those crystals...

At least the save point is close this time so i`ll have to switch some Orbs around and party members,otherwise it`s auto battles on lesser mobs till I gain a few levels(currently level 30)...too bad you can`t change/swap members on the fly in combat.
