Glad, I love you bro, but if you keep using Iggy as a way to get digs in on Noct I'm gonna leave you in this dungeon.

Done with hunts for the moment. The back and forth is sucking a lot of the fun out of them.

They should have added them to your phone somehow. In fact, all quests should have able to be completed via the phone.

 

[Jarmel]

what was the reward?

A lance with roughly 344 attack. It said something about how it has a devastating finishing move but I didn't try it.

Okay, the constant imperial dropship spawns are getting seriously old. Go awayyyy.

Love them for Magitech Boosters. Quintcast plus you don't need to use many to get your spells to tier III.

I'm getting a new appreciation for XIII's soundtrack, it's funny how hearing this music out of context is actually making me like it more than I did.

I just happened to listening to Fisherman's Horizon from FF8 when I drove into Galdin's Quay, it was glorious.

You too? Dude im thinking to myself... "Wow. 13s ost is really good in this game for some reason.."

 

[zeromcd73]

OMG THAT ENDING IT HURTS TO BREATH HOLY FUCK MY TEARSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[show me your skeleton]

there are a lot of braces in this game.

 

[kromeo]

<3 Daggers the most fun weapon to fight with

 

[Imp the Dimp]

I killed the Catoplebas for the hunt quest but it didn't drop the item necessary for Taka's quest. So I guess I just have to redo the quest and hope it drops the item (Catoplebas basket I think?)? That's a little lame. The fight took quite a while too.

Maybe it's coz they didn't include the boring tracks.

XII and XIII had their share of boring tracks.

2) I love the music that plays when you go on a tour with someone.

You mean Stand By Me?

Yup... needs a patch

Ditto. They should have seen this coming.

 

[Pachimari]

How do I use my friends' abilities / skills?

Being able to call tipsters for hunts would be a game changer.

 

[Zakalwe]

Being able to call tipsters for hunts would be a game changer.

It really is a huge oversight. Being able to stay in the field and gain hunts would be so much fun.

How do I use my friends' abilities / skills?

Set them in the gear menu (first slot).

Then hold whichever button for your control scheme (B is L2) and use the d-pad to select from the menu.

But that would fuck with their desire to treat it like an MMO and waste your time.

 

[Raxious]

Mmm, I might have overleveled a bit, currently still at the beginning of chapter 3 and already lvl 59 ^^'

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

I mean before day 1 we couldn't even wait till nighttime

 

[Ydelnae]

I wish Titan showed up as much as Ramuh. I haven't seen him since the boss battle.

 

[kromeo]

Do the hunts start giving better rewards? They've all just been healing items so far

 

[Zakalwe]

Chapter 11.

So c9-10 were the start of the more linear chapters? I really don't see an issue so far. I really like the juxtaposition between the open world and the more focused missions/story of these latter parts.

 

[pashmilla]

Oh my god it's taking 10 minutes to travel somewhere for a quest and I can't fast travel bc reasons? Kill me now. Time to check tumblr and refresh my emails I guess.

Where can I find the 6th royal arm from the right to left? it has "M" symbol.

Help?

I wish Titan showed up as much as Ramuh. I haven't seen him since the boss battle.

They say each boss has condition and Titan's condition is to let the party members(except for Noct) to die and that's what triggers him. can't confirm that though.

summoning in his game sucks.

Hey, wait till the part where you're trying to hop over a little fence to an area you can clearly get to below but you can't because you first have to find the stairs.

Is there antything about a PC version?

 

[Razmos]

The game just crashed on me, I was fighting some imperial soldiers and was going to take a screenshot because Noctis got an enemy fist stuck through his chest, and the game just totally crashed.

Final chapter spoilers:

You need to kill the lv72 daemon (big monster with a red laser) before you fight Ifrit. After you killed Ifrit, open the elevator door. Then go back to where Ifrit was and kill 2 Red Giant. Then go back to where the lv72 daemon was and kill Psychomancer.

PS. I'm not sure if you need to kill every daemons in the map or not.

Steyliff Super Dungeon: Complete

This was a harrowing six hour tale of love, anger, lust, and betrayal. No but seriously this was a six hour endurance test to see if you brought enough supplies and whether you would eventually crack. Other Super Dungeons in the game have been hard, possibly unfair at times, but this was just brutal. There were sections in this dungeon's 100 floors where they would throw 4 Ronins at you at once and all you can see on your screen is the dodge button and purple smoke. Early on I didn't realize how long this Super Dungeon was, as the previous 5 were roughly twenty floors, and so I spent supplies a bit too frivolously. Near the end I had to leave party members dead while I fought four tonberries trying to carve me up all at once. I was only able to beat those godforsaken tonberries by spamming the everlasting hell out of that dodge and counter button. Tonberries like to attack fast and 5 or 6 times in a row, so I had to counter just as much in a span of 15 to 20 seconds. It became a volleyball match only with knives.

I went into this dungeon with 99 potions, 70+ phoenix downs, 70 elixirs, and other stuff. Near the end, almost all of that is gone. I was starting to get into my 'emergency stash' on the 90th floor. I didn't think I was going to make it as the 91st and 92nd floor were Master Tonberry(think Sir Tonberry but on crack) so I thought the rest of the 90's were going to be straight Master Tonberry. Thankfully that wasn't the case and the rest were a lot easier.

Funnily enough, the boss was easier than just one Master Tonberry. He got the full extent of six hours of pent up rage.

Christ. I thought I would do all of these (only on Fociaugh now), but that just sounds like an incredibly unfun slog. Do you know how much worse Crestholm and Costlemark are?

Yeah, that would cut the playtime in half, can't have that.
