Whoa...you got a tactician USB to drop?!

I tried using an ATK restraint on my Plesiomon to lower its attack but I keep getting the "This will have no effect if it is used". Its personality is builder.
Yeah. It's from PlatinumNumemon. It's pretty rare tho

Just got to Chapter 10 and I have to repeat what others have said about the story. There is way more going on then I thought there would be, and I hear it only picks up from here on out. Stopped to grind for a bit since I got lucky and have had Tactician USB's made from an island twice now. They nailed the digivolving aspect of this game so well. Last game I played was the Sun one on the DS and it was so much more tedious than it is here. In Cyber Sleuth it's just plain fun.
If you are asking how to make a def penetrating attack do more damage, the answer is to boost your attack stat. It's weird how this game has attack and defense for physical, but then int is a combined damage and defensive stat.

I thought def penetrating moves inflict the user's def stat as damage directly.

You do both
No, they just ignore defense but they use attack to determine damage. Yes, the wording is weird.
The best part is that it keeps getting better.
The last three chapters are the best in the game.
Nope.
Comes out next week. Never played the franchise before, but will give it a buy if reception is good due to based Media Vision.
Gotcha, I thought it was weird that it used defense instead of attack but having int function as defense and offense is even weirder.

I love Suzuhito Yasuda too much not to pull the trigger on this. You've won me over. Kyoko and Nokia are clear signs of what happens when you let Yasuda free though.

Not seeing Summon Night 6 here at all. They went from Chaos Rings III to Shining Resonance to Cyber Sleuth to Planet Vader to the Valkyria Remaster (and the new Valkyria).

Isn't that them on the staff page?

Second line, first credit. I don't know as much kanji, so I'm unsure what actual thing they contributed.
Huh, that's interesting. Felistella was the developer I was thinking of, but they're credited for production assistance there, while Media Vision is the main dev. Incidentally...

Felistella doesn't list Summon Night 6 on their site either! It's kinda funny how the game is on neither developer's page. Lol.
Decided to buy this game because of the thread since it looked pretty good from the start. The intro wasn't too bad but kinda thought everything up to chapter 10 was taking forever to get things moving. Then from chapter 10 it just keeps on moving to a point I didn't realize I was already at the last chapter. Finished the game today and really enjoyed it. Been some time since I had played a JRPG that had me hooked on it for about two weeks straight. Think I clocked in at around 90 hours? Probably will head back into it later to get the platinum. Just wanted to say thanks to the people who posted in this thread to keep it up on the front page otherwise I wouldn't have bothered to look into the game at all. Though I am looking forward to other future games in this series since I enjoyed the story side of this game, the battle system of this game had left me not liking it so much by the end of it. I am guessing this is the first Digimon game with this particular tone in regards to story? Definitely has re-sparked my interest in the Digimon series.(I already finished watching S1 and Tamers through the course of the game)
Thoughts and some questions after finishing the game:
Thoughts and some questions after finishing the game:
Man I thought that 1st Examon fight was epic and turned out to be "Oh yeah we can't fight him at the moment, let's come back with a plan." Maybe I really wasn't paying attention all to well, but was it ever explain to why the MC could be in the human world as data? Or was that just a sign that the digital world and human world were starting to merge? I forget what chapter it was but it was a quest involving the occult club where you had to deal with some bloody Mary rumor by walking in the Shibuya crossing and a ghost girl was summon. Did that ever get resolved?
I fucking hate Jesmon so damn much. Every time I've fought a Jesmon in the online Colosseum hes been basically invincible and proceeds to wipe out my entire damn team whilst constantly surviving from attacks that should have killed his shiny ass 5 times over. He seriously pisses me off. He basically has multiple invincibility buttons (Safe Guard + whatever his special ability is) and as long as he keeps them up he literally cannot die. Such bullshit.
The game has hyped me hype to watch the anime now. Since I rewatched Frontier (boring) and Tamers last year, I'll give Savers a try. Never seen that one.
Also had no idea Media Vision did the Valkyria Remaster PS4 port. How interesting.
Maybe they're just waiting for the game to release before they put it on their site. Azure isn't up either.

Hoping to have this platinum trophy by tomorrow.
Nokia's design is just really weird.
I really disliked Kyoko's design before I picked this game up. The cleavage shot is just ridiculous and the shorts sometimes end up looking like underwear(which is weird because other times they look like short shorts) but honestly she's probably one of the best characters in the game. I really wish they didn't give her that awful boob opening because just without that alone the design is way better.

Yeah, I'm certainly open to the character writing surpassing an odd design.

I don't know if there is an official reason for the MC data body but I thought it was because he/she got attacked by an Eater while at the same time logging out so it didn't consume you and your condition is a side effect of it touching you. As for the Ghost girl I asked the same thing and it was just a creepy 1 chapter thing.

Where can I get Death Barrier DX?
The lady who sells equipment in Shibuya only has the non-DX variety.

I think she starts selling DX barriers at chapter 20.
Lively = more energetic = more active = more special attacks = more SP.
The word lively does not in any way suggest a person being more resistant to damage!

Plus, they're listed in the same order that their given stat is on the Status screen.
Ah, thanks.
I was trying to do a certain set of quests before heading off to Chapter 20, but I guess they'll have to wait.

I posted the personality list a couple pages ago!
Durable is HP
I've never played the DS games but my friend owned one of them and I remember when I first saw screens of CS I was confused because Nokia and Arata looked exactly like characters from DS.
Anyways weird was probably the wrong word to use since the hair and face are fine. It's more like the clothing design in the game is bad for certain characters.

Currently doing the Seven Demon Lords DLC. Just need
. Geez, even on normal they're tough.
Lilithmon and Lucemon
Key to beating
Lilithmon is Lilithmon
Lucemon
I want to say that this is the dodgiest clothing a Maaya Sakamoto character has ever worn, but then I remember how the clothing in The 3rd Birthday would fall apart as I got damaged. Looooool.
There's a character you meet in chapter 15 who just looks so bad.
VenomMyotismon is pretty funny in how he summons the penis monster that lives in his pants to wiggle around when he wins. Only time you'll see it.
Beelzemon has my favourite victory animation so far.
Motorbike outta nowhere, whew.

I just had my first battle with
Lucemon. His CM murdered me.
You're stuck on Leviamon arent you? Get you a healer with safe guard. Works wonders for that fight.
I actually beat him without either thanks to my Mastemon and Marine Angemon having Safe Guard and Status Shield. Actually made the fight kinda easy. Just put a heavy hitter in the last party slot and spammed Speed charge with Mastemon whenever heals or shields werent required. Pretty much steamrolled him and I was playing on hard mode. The tricky part was making sure safe guard was ALways active. Basically had to rely on a high speed damage member for the last phase. I used the high speed member to spam healing items and mastemon and marineangemon just spammed shields untill the dude whittled his own hp down to a shred.
Try and get a good Data type healer. I used MarineAngemon. Sukayamon is also pretty solid but I prefer the status debuff wipe that MarineAngemon's special provides. Rapidly becoming one of my favorite digimon in the game. Mastemon also works wonders thanks to be neutral element type and her special attack can do a TON of damage thanks to the flat 25%.
Ooops Sorry double post. Didnt expect nobody to have posted in the last 10 mins. My bad. :-/

I got Mastemon for that very reason. He spammed his insta-kill the second the fight started.
Thats why your mastamon should be rocking full speed bonus attributes/equipment and or you need ulforce veedramon.

What's the best way for Mastemon to get Safe Guard and/or Status Shield?

So can anyone give me a really quick rundown on what exactly is needed to farm tactician USBs? Thought I was doing it right but my lack of success means I'm probably not...
Mastemon learns Safe Guard at level 80. As far as status sheild goes I can't remember the path I took to get mine
Ok so heres how I got Safety Guard on my Mastamon: Angewoman to Ophanimon. Ophanimon devolve into Piximon. Piximon evolve into Hououmon. Hououmon to lvl 80 for Safety Guard. Devolve back to Piximon. Piximn back to Ophanimon. Ophanimon back to Angewoman. THen DNA Digivolve.
I also got Speed Charge (honestly cant recall where I picked this up), Panic Wisp (from Monzaemon), Holy Light III and Final-Aura. Basically never a wasted turn.
Funnily enough I am WAY more fond of my MarineAngemon atm. He straight up trivialized Lucemon and Leviamon. He also has both Safety guard and status shield along with a fairly powerful set of water attacks thanks to his remarkably high base int and speed values. His special ability is a massive group heal that also gets rid of all status effects. He can also learn dispell which rids any party member of all debuffs and he gives the party passive SP regen. He is just sooooooooooooo good. Him + Sukayamon's enemy buff dispells just makes so many boss fights easy. Im straight up rolling through the great challenges with 0 issues whatsoever on hard thanks to these two.
Behold the face of a true monster
