Thanks guys! Is there a big penalty for changing factions?
it can cost as much as 1000 lacrima to change if you're further in game. if it's early, it should be pretty low.
You mean Symphata missions or the rest?
couldn't you just do the grim one?
they look pretty easy to me....
They just fight very differently than any other bosses in the original, and in SSD their blue fire attack surprises for being hit as hard as a truck and homing.
I think I kept on spamming those fire mines on him. Kept falcon feather on to keep my distance.

Pegasus is Frost though..
Use Volt!
Yep, I've been using volt melee and mortar. The volt ground attack usually doesn't hit him because he's flying.

I find the Pegasus and Pheonix really annoying because of their flying,
projectiles, and that they usually aren't vulnerable on the ground because of their "rebirth".
They're more annoying now since there are a lot fewer shooting spells, too.

Yes! They always interrupt me while I'm casting arrows.

Great advice! Didn't even think about that.
I need to get some spears when I switch to Sanctuarium.
Edit: Finally reached 50/50
Nah, just Falcon feather do no good. You need shield to fare better against its spinning charge.

Can you explain Rite of Transmutation????
Any sigil or ones that I have unlocked?
you'll get this Carve Heart Sigil opened up and when you do the transmutation, they give you a choice to pick one of the offering type sigils to boost them like Spears, Weapon, Binding. Mine, Special Magic etc.
If in sanctuarium, i suggest going for blood magic, spears, or blitz.
you'll know what's at end!

Guess I'll go with weapon since I enjoy using the Frost Icebrand
Is the Rite of Transmutation something that can be done indefinitely, or can it only be done once?
99 times ( I haven't seen any further than this).
up to 10 sigil for each (which increases 5% each time after the first 100%).

Wow.
I just took 52 minutes to finish a 12 star quest.
At least I got the offerings from the Cursed Marks.

I was using up my time trying to break the Curse Mark on the Minotaur's head with a Silver Volt Blitz. ;_;
Use the elements counter for a shield. The same element if you are using a protection ring.
You could CHOOSE which offering type sigil from Rite of Transmutation? Bu-but how? D:
Well I guess weapon magic amp isn't bad, but I want went for the overkill with throwing sigils!

That's good about the paid content, but don't the in-game 'Download' section just connect to whatever your PSN store is? Maybe I'm wrong about this.
Are you required to be online for any of the trophies? Thinking that new global faction thing, specifically.

The Defeat Archfiends ones? I was kind of hoping I could do that by myself in ad hoc Oh well.
Time to pressure that friend to buy a Vita...
Thanks for the info. I guess I'll have to finish the story in vanilla then. No way I'm switching to English. I like that advanced offerings are easier to obtain. That was my main gripe with the vanilla version.
Man, the brother grimm monsters are absolutely brilliant. Really early in the game, but the Three Little Piggies and Rapunzel are just tremendous designs.
I´m also happy that you get to see this new stuff so early on, I was a bit worried that most of the changes would affect endgame.
I think the "fairytale gone wrong" theme really adds a lot to the games atmosphere. SS was mostly just gory and dark, whereas this adds a new, grotesque, almost psychedelic layer to it. Really glad I gave this a chance, despite already owning vanilla SS and having it only played a few hours.

Okay rushed through the story and started the new Magusar stuff.
I'm glad I didn't import my almost complete save from the original, this allowed me to refresh my memory about the story and play Delta as a whole.
I must say I'm really impressed there is a lot more to Delta than I first thought, I actually only bought the game to support the franchise as I was a great fan of the original but I really think everyone who even remotely liked the original should grab Delta.

I wanted to experience the story again anyway so I've been reading through the pacts, skipping grunt missions and completing arch fiends.
Gold offerings made things easier than I would have liked, but it's still a ton of fun.

I wonder why Delta doesn't have a PVP option. Since you're fighting single mages during the game, do you think it wouldn't necessarily work on a technical or balance level?
I hope they are working on a Soul Sacrifice 2.. Delta is incredible and deserves to do well.

You can skip them if you've already played through it by pushing start.
Does anyone know how to get + offerings???
You have to fuse them. It's a gold version of the offering you want + a large faction offering. The type of faction offering required depends on the type of magic.
You can also get them as rewards, I got 4 + offerings for my Alice run.

To get those (L) Faction offerings you can just do those high level soul shard or grunt hunts and just sacrifice your self by bleeding yourself dry with blood attacks and let your allies do the mission for you. You usually get at least one of those offerings as a reward, also a great way for martyr rewards.
Blitz + Armor & Aboreal (ATK) x2 are really good at knocking him straight out the sky.
