Hmmm confused.

Hi, i was wondering... i saw videos on youtube when people do around.. 3-6 techniques in raw or even more... but when i try, it end up... making 2 then it comes a gap .. so it takes a while to do it again... why? :S

And also, about the darkness weapons, is Gaia clever better or Darkness ? and for regal.. ? darkness or Dynast?

And another thing.. it says darkness weapons becomes stronger and stronger more enemies u kill.. but how can i see it?.. how can i see when it reach max? or does it even do that? ..

re: Hmmm confused.

Answer 1: It may be spell cancelling. If you hit a button to cast a spell and then press guard to cancel it you can attack instantly. By mixing this in with normal attacks you can combo until the enemy falls down. Lloyd and Presea can't do this since they can't cast spells but everyone else can.

Answer 2: Depends. Gaia Cleaver and Dynast attack values are automatic, meaning even if those characters are hardly used they are powerful. The devil arms weapons are only strong after you've scored a lot of kills with the appropriate character. If you don't use Presea or Regal much those weapons may not be that good.

Answer 3: You can't see it. It keeps an invisible count. In general terms though, if you don't use a character a lot their devil arms probably won't be particularly strong.

re: Hmmm confused.

Well, there's an Ex Gem called Ability Plus (level 3 gem) that allows Lloyd to do 2 Lv1 techs in the same combo. So he could do: A - A - A - Lv1 - Lv1 - Lv2 - Lv3. I don't think it possible to go beyond that though except for tacking a unison attack on the end.

re: Hmmm confused.

Eh, 4, 3, close enough. XD

Learning new techs generally involves using a previous tech so many times and then it randomly gets learned when using that lower level tech again. If you're not learning Alpha and Beta then do you have Sonic Sword Rain already? You can't have techniques from both technical and strike paths. If you want Alpha and Beta you have to delete Sonic first.

Techs not linking? What techs are you trying to link? You can't link techs from the same family of techs together (like, Demon Fang won't link to Double/Fierce Demon Fang). Can't think of why else it wouldn't work.

When I want grade I just sit outside Iselia and kill anything that moves. Battles are over in seconds so it starts building nicely anyway.

re: Hmmm confused.

hmm theres somthing else that bothers me, its about the grades from grade shop, is it any use to pick " 2x EXP " for 1000grade? if u get the 10x ? for 3000grade does that + it?.. so it becomes 12X exp? and theres also "1/2 EXP" does that make it 13/2X Exp ? if u got them all 3?

and about the Min hp and Max hp... i might be wrong but... the Min hp gives lower hp? =/ why is that even good?... will it decrease alittle of the Max Hp Grade thing then? =/

re: Hmmm confused.

1) No way! Select one! 10x grade will make your game incredibly easy, 2x grade will make is easy, and 1/2 grade will make it a challenge, especially if you put it on mania.

2) Min HP is to give the player more of a challenge. You cannot select min HP and max HP at the same time.

Remember to link a level 1 tech, to a level 2 tech, to a level three tech, and can't be part of the same family.

Tiger Blade - Sword Rain: Alpha - Beast Swordrain is a nice combo I use. You can find many good combos with experiment.

Just remember that some of the level 3 techs can be weird. 'Beast Sword Rain' comes from the Beast family. Tempest Thrust comes from the tempest family. It can sometimes be weird knowing what families hey come from.

re: Hmmm confused.

hehe call me lame but, i have 1 more question =DD.. it says.. u get more grades when u use Mania?.. but if i kill a enemie.. i get 2,48.. ok? if i use mania still kill him in 1 hit, same time at the round.. and still get 2,48 Grade.. so theres no different? or is there? but i cant see it? :/ , 1 page said the Grade triples if u use Mania.. hmmm :/

and what does the Grade mean .. take over 30 of each items ? to the next game? i cleaned my inventory and only had my swords... and some armors left.. to test if i had it on the other game, and didnt , so what does it mean? =/

re: Hmmm confused.

No, the 30 item things lets you carry 30 of every item on the next playthrough. EX gems are the only items that are possible to actually transfer to a new playthrough.

Not really sure about the grade thing. I think there's something that limits the grade you get from easy battles (or at least it seems like that to me).

re: Hmmm confused.

Grade is always the same. But in mania, the enemy has more HP, giving you more time to combo and increase your grade.

Which is why if you select the option of reducing your EXP to 1 if you didn't get a combo of up to ten, but if you got 10 hits or more in a combo you have increased EXP, putting it on mania can be beneficial. While challenging, it will usually make your characters overlevelled.

Try challenging yourself - 1/2 EXP, Minimun HP and put it on Mania.
