Yeah, I meant beating it with Agitha



C5? What exactly do you press to get it? Is there a list of combos, that explains them in detail? I'm never really sure how many button presses are required for each combo, I'm just finding a way to do them and then repeat that. Sometimes it's dependant on timing as well for example Sheik - I simply button-mash Y until she does the forward motion and jumps into the air, then I press X immediately to get that special attack going right after landing. I have no idea how many X presses are required to get it. :/

C5 is YYYYX
I always use the animation of characters to know which attack to use. In this case is after a small tornado attack she hits the floor with her umbrella, thats when you need to use X.

Of course there is a list of combo; every Warriors game has it. Again: everyone who plays the game should really take a look at the pause menu. You'll find much information there, including a list of combos. Also again: C5 is YYYY-X. There are many ways to learn when to end a combo, and sure, looking at the characters animations work well.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Oh BTW, speaking of characters animations to do certain attacks.

The lag in the Ruto stage against Cia in Adventure mode in the temple of the master sword (I think is to get a heart with Ruto, and Zelda has 2 hearts in chests, and 2 skulltulas can be find).
Holy moly of fuck if the game didnt lag as hell. The first 5 minutes of that stage is you trying to fight against the lag, which makes the level more challenging than it is.
It doesnt help that the game already starts with Sheik attacking your boss commander and another group compose by Fi attacking your home base 3 bases apart.

I didnt have a serious problem of lag until I got to that level.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Zelda's baton BBY is the real deal.

And I'm only missing the last stage on hard mode, it gets chaotic when

Time to level up Darunia.

Oh and Ruto fucking sucks, I hater her stages in Adventure Mode.

Nice pic. I love how great the game looks.

 

[Jackano]

Most of the lags happens when Argarok is on the battlefield. Rest of the time, rare and barely noticeable frame drops.

In always find funny people that say Zelda with the baton or Agitha are good and Ruto sucks.
I think Ruto is one of the best characters and totally destroys everything and Zelda and Agitha are low tier as hell.
Different strokes for different folks it seems.

I dont mind frame drops, the problem is, this stage is a constant 10-15fps lag.

 

[NeonZ]

Yeah, I meant beating it with Agitha

You don't need to A rank it with Agitha though, just beat it. Anyway, the easiest way is to get Bomb + skill and buy the bomb badges for her.

I actually like Agitha. She can quickly beat large groups of officers in those later levels with the hurricane + butterfly attack in spite of being much lower level than my Link. However, she really is bad for that 1000 kills stage since her combos take so long and the enemies are spread out.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Only the last Lana level 3 weapon and I will have all the weapons in the game until the dlc.

Also 2 more stages to clear the whole map, with the majority already in gold.

 

[darkmagus]

Defeat 1000 enemies in 10 minutes as Agitha.

I didn't know a sadist worked on this game.

i don't like those kind of stages on adventure mode.

also i got in the list zulux21

Once you figure out how to use her standard X attack after her water meter is filled up, you realize how godlike she is. Getting 200 kills by standing in the same spot, so good.

"Figure out how to use"? You just aim and press x, no? Is there more to it?

 

[Geminosity]

"Figure out how to use"? You just aim and press x, no? Is there more to it?

I think the nuance that might not be immediately apparent that makes it handy is its absurd range. Once you realise you can basically hit anything you can see and start using it as a snipe/artillery strike rather than trying to use it at closer and more dangerous ranges it becomes a lot more useful/safe

The problem is that I wish she weren't standing in the same spot.

That move leaves you so open to boss attacks during her "Kill X enemies in Y time" adventure stages. The one on Lake Hylia took me a good ten tries to A-rank.

 

[LonelyGreyWolf]

I just hate when I use Ruto's strong attack and forward whatever reason she faces the wrong way and then you have to slowly turn her over or try to cancel it with B, which also takes way too long.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

I never had a problem in the kill X with Ruto (or any other mission for that matter). Just make her face always the grunts and bosses intead of running away and let them in your back like with the other characters.
Like you go, do the tidal wave combo, make everything face you, and then run back until you are like 10 meters from them. Use the special. Boom there goes the 100 group of grunts and the boss is to far to take you damage.

I just hate when I use Ruto's strong attack and forward whatever reason she faces the wrong way and then you have to slowly turn her over or try to cancel it with B, which also takes way too long.

I only had that problem the first times i used Ruto. It was really bothersome. Then after using it as a sniper weapon instead of near by, it never happened again.

 

[RocketDarkness]

I love running up to the entrance of a keep, shooting waves in all three directions, and then running in to take out the Keep Boss. Seizin' keeps in 10 seconds; so good.

 

[PKrockin]

It would be cool if you could swipe over a map on the gamepad to order your forces to strike an outpost or fortify a position. Can you do something like that later? It help me feel like the commander of the army.

You aren't the commander of the army though. It would be fun to be; they should make a game mode like that.

So I got three Gold Skulltulas in Legend Mode on hard, and almost completely filled in this picture. I expected it would be finished at the Valley of Seers, but it started on another picture instead. So I am left annoyed by this missing piece.

Indeed. The ability to clear entire keeps from outside with a full water bar is super good. And her "kill 700 enemies" missions were made super easy when you can clear out entire groups from what feels like a football field away.

Kingdom Under Fire: Hyrule.

[upandaway]

I'm having tons of fun when I'm strong enough (or better, heh heh) but it's really frustrating when I'm not. I just did the second Twilight level in Legend mode on Hard, with a level 37 Midna (level 1 weapon) and people just didn't die. Clearing boss weakpoint gauge made him lose less than 1/4ths of his HP, not cool.

That's after I spent a ton of rupees getting Midna to that level and it's the highest level I have, too.

Anyone knows good EXP grinding spots?

Get all the skulltulas on normal and the first two on hard to get it. All of them are in Legend mode.

Wait, I'm not? lol

Are you serious? You can see your commander by pausing the game. Usually it's the person who's standing in your base, I believe. If you win the battle it'll also say that their forces won. They are also the ones who tell you what your objective is and where they're sending their units; they decide where raid captains go etcetera. You don't. You're just a soldier.

Albeit a soldier who's way, way, way, way, way stronger than anyone else in your army, heh.

I only see a half-dozen Hyrulean Captains or something spread around my forces. I never noticed anything like a general. Like I said, it's hard for me to pay attention to the actual dialogue mid-battle since I have to read it. If the commander showed up in the dialogue I must have mistaken him for a captain or something.

Still, Lana says she's the one leading the troops in mission 3 and at the point where the paths split the intro text says for example "Impa led a small force of soldiers..." You can see why I'd think that.

 

[Kouriozan]

Do we get the option to turn off in-battle cutscene with the DLC patch?

Well he or she isn't called "commander". He or she is called by their own name. Also if you miss dialogue you can read it all in the pause menu's battle log.

I think so. Hopefully.

How do you guys deal with the kill 700+ in 10 minutes stages. Anything below that I can do fine but I really struggle on anything 700+. Enemy clumps are too small and spread out and the giant bosses (especially gohma) make taking <4000 damage really hard.

Avoid the bosses at all costs, let them nip at your heels while you're taking out mobs just out of reach. Eventually you'll have 2 or 3 bosses on the field basically tripping over themselves in order to follow you, getting in each others way, and essentially taking themselves out of the equation.

I once had a Gohma get stuck in a wall and it was the first time I really wish that the WiiU had the PS4 and XBone's replay capture feature.

 

[TunaLover]

I really can't stand playing co-op mode, there is a notable drop in resolution and framerate. Even playing solo I have noticed enemies pop up, I generally don't mind pop-up when it's gradual, even pop up in the background, I would prefer less and more thoughter enemies in order to reduce this, but oh well, getting so much fun with the game.

 

[Niraj]

So I figured why not get a list of IDs going (unless there is one that just isn't in the OP or I missed it.)

thus I created a google spreadsheet and I should have it just turned so anyone with this link can edit it...

link will be hidden in email tags so that lurkers can't mess with the list.


for the record feel free to move me down the list... my name feels wrong at the top it should be at the bottom

Cool, added myself to the list and sent friend requests to everyone there.

Do we know yet if the upcoming dlc contains the OoT and TP costumes that were preorder bonuses? And what about the SS costumes? Also Ganondorf really needs a Demise costume.

I think he means a list of what each combo is, not just the combo screen in the menu that says what buttons they have (as in hit the button once or 3x).

so more like:
Link's Sword
C1 = upward spinning strike, can continue combo by hitting attack twice, and strong attack to slam the ground
C2 = stepback spinning attack
etc...

I would love to see one as well, I feel like sometimes the combos come out the same even when I hit different buttons (namely Lana's deku slingshot happens too often for me, and wondering if it is a part of 2 combos or if I am just timing it wrong)

Yeah, nothing more has been mentioned from Nintendo.

Also holy shit at 100 bucks. Is it actually being sold for that much? Bloody hell, I stole a bunch of codes from Nintendo and gave them all away. Had I known this I would have taken twice as many and sold the rest to idiots with too big wallets.
