Thanks! Still have about 2k to earn, but money seems to be coming a bit faster now.
Last night I
beat Mars, poked some boobs, saw a naked elf dude in the bath, killed the plant monsters in the graveyard, and fixed the ether mill
As off putting as I found them at first, I'm really starting to like these characters. I'll remember them after this is over for sure!

Well besides randomly finding it from using a Nameless Gem/Staff Gem, you could buy it from the stupid Elf's shop.
I might have screwed this up. I beat Chronos and now I have to
Is there anything I can do to get through this? As I really do not fancy starting again.
beat the Midgard Head, with a Gazer, Paladin and Fighter. I realise I should probably have a healer, but the only place I can do that is in Fran's Room and every time I enter there it wants me to start the battle

Did you save right before turning in the soul? If so you can go back out and grind before that battle/create a healer and grind.
Whistle is essential
Ah ha, my Gazer is at Level 9 now and close to leveling up to level 10.
I still can't create a Healer though, as every time I enter the Manager's Room, I need to partake in that battle. I will go and grind for a bit though first, thanks.

Oh yeah forgot the managers room is locked to the event.
Go forth and conquer!!
Yeah, just need to find a way to destroy it. Going to be one of those I spend hours on I feel.
Well, there's a level later on...
It takes place underwater, and you can't use any spells at all. I think it's hard, but I could just be not used to dungeon crawlers, lol.

Oh damn, after the Chronos fight
The Chronos
fight were super easy for me. I used a Gazer, Samurai, Paladin and Healer party with everyone at level 10 except for my Samurai who was at level 6, but she was still able to deal out some good damage on the boss.
God this game is really damn fun. I think I might up the difficulty, but I'm already going through this game really slowly and trying to get at least 3-5 levels before the next boss. It's been a while since I've played a game like Demon Gaze as well.
That dark turn. Damn, didn't expect that even though I expected Lorna to die at some point because death flags. Even the oddly calming Vocaloid music turned into sad and depressing music now.
The Chronos
& Hydra

It does get quite difficult imo; just had to grind for items for a tough boss.

Not that far yet but:
1. Use multiple saves
2. Grind
3. Some items only use is to be sold (even says so in the description), so sell them
4. Make sure you can cover rent before returning to the inn (not that hard really)
5. Get a healing staff
6. Check the bulletin board

Should I be tackling Pluto before Uranus...
Played consecutively for hours last night, and managed to beat both Mars and Chronos (two times). Mars isn't that hard with my healer constant Avoid spell to both Gazer and Paladin. Meanwhile the latter keep holy charging Mars to the death. Unfortunately my Gazer just died ONE turn before Mars defeated, so there goes EXP for him and my Paladin become the lead in level.
Chronos is much easier than Mars actually especially with Samurai since its passive raise your physical attack. But like a streak of bad luck, my ney Samurai just died again ONE turn before my Paladin landed the finishing blow. Does the bad luck ends? lol of course not as the next event ambush me with my Ney Samurai still dead. The hydra proceed to curmbstomped me as it oneshotted my Healer. But I guess it's not bad luck after all since I managed to beat Chronos the second time with everybody still alive.

Ya the game spikes at certain points. I fought the
shark that you mentioned earlier and barely made it after literally 3 shotting the boss 5 minutes earlier

Probably reduced damage done to your characters like in many other games with back and front rows. In games like Final Fantasys, back rows also meant dealing less damage but given that this game's weapons have 3 different range levels this is probably not implementated.

Yes you do.
any advice on which characters i should get?

God Damn, Pluto took all 8 of my revive items.

If you are new to the genre highly suggest a healer to help out! If you want to farm stuff for money and dont plan on going up against another boss soon get a Samurai. The samurai will get an all front row attack from Lv. 4. Which is useful for just grinding away on weaker enemies for cash and exp.
But yeah healers are great and still do suggest it over the samurai for your third character.

I'm not sure whether to go with Wizard or Ranger for my 5th class. I have a Paladin/Samurai/Healer right now. Is Wizard mostly utility and Ranger backrow DPS?
Parakeetman

Go with the ranger, you wont have to worry about MP as much so to speak. The Wizard I didnt really find all that useful personally... But thats just me. Plus this game isnt exactly like more traditional Wizardry titles where you need to have a wizard around to kill some things.
While its a bit strange, I used an assassin w/ a bow in the back row instead of a ranger.
Wait till the next boss its way more real then pluto lol
Is there an item or skill against the instant death effect (Dead status on weapons)? Came across a Dullahan and a Death Knight and they both insta-killed my Paladin. Was starting to think my Paladin was invincible with 800+ HP and 80-90 def, but that thought didnt last long. :lol
Paladin gets a built in skill that stop OHKO called Holy Guard I believe. You can also get the artifact and use it on anyone.
Oh, i assumed it stopped normal attacks that would go over you health bar and OHKO you, but yea it makes more sense this way. Thanks.
Well I'm not 100% but based on text it should. Sometimes you just run into crazy hard random battles that are harder then any of the bosses.
Parakeetman

The Japanese text says the same thing, so it should defend against "fatal" type of attacks. Also guards against paralyze.
Ranger is pretty good in mid/endgame.
Variable shots+pierce, and True Snipe are great skills.
Wiz is pretty must useless with one artifact you can get that would remove debuffs from bosses...so yeah, don't go Wizard.
I agree Wiz is alright but uh falls off quite a bit once you can get specific artifacts. I might switch mine out after I finish the main story off in a bit here.
Edit: Made a ranger was hitting 2x harder then wiz 15 levels lower and I had artifacts for healer to use the force spells. Finished game first try time for post game tomorrow!

Sight, so my first fight against
ended in epic failure, after my gazer passed out and the game thought it would be a great idea to move my healer to the front row ><
Is there any way to keep this from happening? Should I slap a bow and my gazer and throw him in the back row so he gets moved up instead?

Had to take a rest, after spending too much time playing today and not enough time working. I think I am coming up to my 4th Demon now, but lost in a forest. The grinding on this isn't actually all that bad.

This game is hard to put down. I get that one more circle thing going and then end up finishing two dungeons.

Received my Ltd Ed box from NISA today - not bad coming up to Canada... Picked up Conception II and a few PSP games too...
I like the Limited Edition but the book's smaller than I anticipated... It's an attractive box though; I'm looking forward to listening to the soundtrack, but will save it until I've played the game a bit and been introduced to it there...

Because thats what its supposed to be. There is something that you can do to get certain items twice, but didnt read up on it.

Started earlier. I love how similar to Xth it is. Even the same icons and font(numeral wise).
Could use less cheesecake, though.
