Accuracy/Aim maintains your number of hits. So if your maximum is 10 hits, you'll do 10 hits more often. It's especially important against enemies with Evade.
Agility is what determines your max. number of hits.

Damn, this game is ridiculously addictive. I had my 3DS next to me during the entire Titanfall beta so I could check/update Norende in between matches.

Just started the game. Have zero friends on 3ds. Not sure if there's a different thread for it, but my friend code is 2449 5210 5966. I need to make some friends
Is there a formula that determines max number of hits?
Duh, lol. Why didn't I think of that. Thanks man!

About the optional dungeon (ch6+):
If I do it in the "Finale" chapter (the one you get if you break the crystal), does progress transfer over back when you return to the game after seeing the ending? Or will I have to do it again when I try for the True Ending? like if I go in and collect all the items/beat the boss, will I keep all the items when I return to the game after the ending or no?

To be honest it's not really necessary. Friends aren't used in Norende village, just for summoning in battle. You can get more villagers for Norende by streetpassing or updating your data once per day (you'll get 3 extra villagers a day simply by updating).

Good to hear, thanks!
I only have 44-49 villagers. Despite not playing the game proper, I always had my 3DS close so I could manage Norende
That's pretty lame if the Norende equipment is nothing special that early in the game

Is there any benefit in
in chapter 5 ? Because if it's just for the experience and Jp i can actually earn a lot more in a few minutes outside of florem than in those battles...

I know, I just got my ass kicked when I went there. So I just continued on with the story until I level up a bit before I go back and try it again.

I feel incredibly stupid, but how do you get past (optional dungeon)
B9 of the optional dungeon? There's a locked door that leads to the stairs going to floor B10, and I thought there would be a lever or hidden passage, but I can't find shit. Starting to get irritated.

Oh,
the door only opens up if you are going for the true ending? That's annoying/lame. I wish it'd say that at least. Just wasted time running into every single wall trying to find a lever/hidden passage...

Don't worry, I did that too.
There's no much point since they don't even give EXP. They flesh out the characters just a little, but its not much in Chapter 5.
Chapter 7/8 You will want to do all optional sidequests to steal from the bosses. They have good items.

So what does the number of hits mean? Your maximum damage output?

Just saw the first ending.
I love the new title screen "Where the Fairy Flies" -> "Airy Lies". Love that, lol.
What castle are we talking about here? I literally saved and quit after the chapter 4 bumper came up and the next few cutscenes finished up so if we are talking about a chapter 4 location then my confusion is justified.

I think Normal is fine for most of the game. There might be a few difficulty spikes, but if you run into trouble, you can always change the settings in the menus.

Chapter 7:
Damn, the sidebosses here are no joke. It'd be one thing if it was just one vs one, but they are 2 and 3 vs you. At least so far - I've only done the black mage/knight/monk battle which was pretty rough.
Also, is it normal for my monk to be best with no knuckle weapons? I mean, it happened several times during the earlier parts of the game, but I'm at the end, and I have all the knuckle weapons according to the journal, but even the best one is -6 P.Atk compared to bare-fisted.

I have been playing on Hard since Ch.1, I'm on Ch.3 now. Once you unlock the Angel Bow from the Norde town shop... You can blow by enemies. I put it on hard after that point and never looked back.
I highly recommend playing on Hard if you plan in using the Norde village weapons early on by using a lot of villagers.
I have been very happy with the difficulty balance in playing this way so far. In Ch.2 and now 3 I have had some intense and fun boss fights. There have been multiple boss encounters where I was murdered, and then just by changing jobs and abilities... I got better and died again. Then perfecting a strategy, I could win. Its been a lot of fun. I have immensely enjoyed the game on hard. I can't recommend it enough, I would feel like I was really missing out on fully enjoying the combat strategy without the challenge!

I think its normal. But what you miss out are the status effects and damage bonuses from knuckle weapons.
Don't forget to steal!

So im in Chapter 5 right now, and Ive decided I want to just grind for a while. My dudes are all level 55, and quite a few jobs each at level 9 right now. Im grinding up in that forest north of Florum and its getting me about 2k XP and 200jp each kill.
Now Ive got about 250k in the bank, should I buy the money gaining bracer now, and just use that to gain the XP/JP bracer asap? or should I just keep saving for the XP/JP bracer?

You can get it later.
Save up for the growth egg. The higher level you are, the easier it will be to grind for money later on for the golden egg.

Its just hard to ignore the basic math. haha.
Since I still need about 200k left, and that will take 'X' battles, but if I buy the Golden Egg, then the same amount of battles I will earn 400k, and therefore have both Eggs in the same time it takes to get one.
...but then im not getting any XP at all and that sounds horrible. haha.
Yeah, you have access to a good grinding spot as soon as you get to that chapter's new city.
Ah, you are great, thank you.
If you can survive when he braves, then yes. Just play extremely defensive, defaulting all the time and attacking when you think he isn't going to counter. Also special attacks don't trigger his counters and the Katana's special trigger condition is defaulting X number of times.

I mean you could definitely make the money quickly. Since you're in chapter 5, the island NE of Florem (has snow, grass, and a beach, looks like a triangle) is easy mode for jp, exp, and pg. I think with Golden egg+more money+the sweeper bonus, I would get something like 25k plus per battle. So you'd probably be fine going that route, just make sure you can kill that stuff quickly.

yes, including base levels
....which class is obsolete because of the 9999 damage cap?
Six hours in, just now starting chapter one. I'm really digging both the music and art assets for this game, and after cruising around for a bit at the end of the Prologue, I really hope the game is as grand as it seems.
I have a Norende pop of about 25 right now, micro-managing projected finish times is strangely satisfying. Be sure to pm me for an add!!
