I'm not really looking for advice or "hints" here. I'm playing on Tactical, and I was told this game was supposed to be insanely easy once you figured out how to break it. And honestly, that was true... until I reached a mission with two shamans sitting in the back row.I'm level 8 myself, and even with custom tactics, I ended up having to spend an Ash because the timer ran out. Then I got completely filtered by a dancer who apparently has a thing for the main character. Even when they were the only one left, my units just kept missing their attacks. I got so fucking mad that I quit the mission right then and there, turned off the console, and walked away.Can't believe how easy this game is!I just skipped the mission for now, and I'm about to turn the console back on and do something else instead. Hopefully, by the time I come back to it, I'll be less annoyed and can actually deal with it.>inb4 skill issuet. fucking hate strategy games but love the character interactions, thank fucking God

>>748265205idk who that is
>>748265004I'm really not trying to be rude but just put it on normal mode if you suffer from some kind of mental disability?
The two shamans are a common casual filter, the way the damage formula works completely neuters your attack if your strategy can't handle it.>my units just kept missing their attacksBecause they were fighting an evasion tank class designed to dodge attacks.
>>748265346yeah sister that's right!
>>748265396the two shamans were actually NOT that bad because right before them I got the tutorial on how to do custom tactics so I just spammed Back Row, but that other bitch was so annoying and no all of my units are at level 10, only like 4 and none that worked it's so funny reading posters saying it's easy when they're using guides and watching videos on "how to" queue the coping after this post btw
>>748265528If you need a guide to know that maybe you should use the anti-dodging class to fight dodgetanks then I'm sorry but you might be retarded.
>queue the coping like clockwork
>>748265004yeah the game is autopilot braindead easy unless you're playing on the hardest difficulty. The hardest diff here (other than true zenoiran) is still very accessible and items can still cheese it but if you're just making cohesive squad units and controlling them properly you'll have a lot more fun with it. Experimenting with what every unit does and setting custom instructions will be more than enough for all but some of the later maps.
>>748265813can i overgrind and just use the units i think are cute/cool? because that's what I was doing before getting all tactical, which makes me bored as fuck
>>748265813the game is still piss easy on the hardest difficulty. It might very well be the easiest tactics game ever made and is by far the biggest downside to the game. There is zero reason to think up combos or work on synergies because you just slap whatever unit wherever and win
>>748265924yes, it's viable and how the game is meant to be played >>748266036>using a guide 1:1 for his units then claim the game is piss easyroflmao
>>748266080Classic /v/, every time.
I remember it was pretty smooth sailing until the furries came into play. That's even with skipping the correct order and going to the elves as soon as possible.
>>748266185The game has like 10 obvious difficulty spikes that hit you out of nowhere throughout the whole campaign, this is undeniable. It sort of works though, but can get tedious if you just want to enjoy the challenges and not hit your head on the wall.
>>748266080>so bad at a game he has to invent a scenario in his head to get mad at if you need a guide for this game, commit suicide. I am being serious. You have no future and no hope of getting anything out of life because you are supremely retarded to the point even Goodwill and its Downs workers won't give you a job. Also, just because seeing you seethe is hilarious; the game leaked a week early. That was before the game was out. There were no 'guides'. LOL
when people say /v/ is bad at video games they are not lying. Like some of these people are actually better off just not playing them at all
>>748266305Who are you quoting?
>>748266351>got raped, tries to deflectlolGG EZ
>>748266375No really, who are you quoting?
>>748266435>The Raped continues to scream "I am not Raped!"
>>748266285I mean, it's a pseudo auto battler, they couldn't make it piss easy and sell it for 50$ now would they? I agree too that the character interactions are cool most of the time, some are hit or miss but I can manage,
I am trying to imagine the kind of mental midget that would have issues with this game and I wonder what it would be like to be worse at video games than someone with hydrocephalus
>>748265004Tactical is how it should be played so you're doing good already, think of it like rock paper scissor, check what class that unit you're having problem is, restart the game then read the library. You will be doing this 100% of the time so get used to it until you master it.
>>748266036>>748266305Weird bait. Yeah man, 1CC inam any given Touhou is braindead easy, I cleared each in one try. Trust me, bro.
>>748266635>continues to make up situations in his head to get mad at
>>748266635
>>748266614Is hiring the non story units worth? Or am I gimping myself up and wasting funds? So far I bought one Wizard and that's it, and I benched him for Yahma (not her name but the first woman sorcerer you get). Was planning on buying a Shaman unit as I find Selvie overpowered as fuck.
>>748266665That's my first post in the thread, clown. I saw UO, came to enjoy the thread, and mocked you for your shitty bait.
>>748266712Is that a self portrait, troon?
>>748265004git gud nigger. the only "hard part" of the game is grinding the colosseum. it's still a great game regardless.
>>748266185Should I continue skipping the correct order? Like for example, I have been exploring the fuck out of the map and neglecting to save Scarlet still.
>>748266919Broski just use a guide like 100% of the "piss easy" posters itt
>>748267003If you need a guide for this game then lord save you. this is coming from someone who got a game guide for the N64 007 game.
>>748266961It doesn't really matter overall. You'll be able to cruise through the area you skipped later, but it felt fine. It was a small part of the game overall.
>>748267159I'm assuming that the more main quest scenearios you do, the stronger units you get no? Now I'm debating if I should just do the main quests and come back when I'm 5 level higher for every other mission hmm
>>748267225isn't there like a level 30 battle around the starting map when you're what, level 10? lol
>>748267225From what I recall, it doesn't let you jump around willy-nilly forever.
>>748265004Good thread anon
>>748267225just complete them when available. if you need to grind in order to get the job done, then do so.
It's good you're playing on tactical. Want a dumb way to fuck with probability if you're frustrated? You see the exact outcome before a fight, it's set in stone so if it says a team is fucked it's fucked. That only matters for that precise formation though. If you change a single variable, no matter how small or nonsensical, you'll reroll the dice. You can change your formation and use items before entering the fight so you can luck scum it if you want.For example; you have a two person team with a tank in front and a squishy guy in the back. The enemy has a full column attack so if your tank is directly in front of the squishy it'll hit both, however for some reason the battle forecast is better despite your plan being worse. This is because the potential for the guy in the back to take damage rerolled every variable in the fight. Your tank might've only had a 10% chance to dodge but this time was the one where he dodged everything. Same for ranged support so having three archer or mage teams backing you up gives more variables to change. You might even notice involving them sometimes gives you a worse forecast (though never healers because they heal at the end of a fight). You can even put your squishy characters up front just to see if it changes anything or cycle in worse teams to remove a single point of health from a boss and change probability.
>>748265004This game would have been wayy better if it had less mapslop and more virgina romance
>>748265004is it true you can romance aliens in this game?
>>748267465Well fucking shit, that explains why sometimes I would do 23 damage and then somehow the same battle it would show a different number like 50, this is good stuff good to know anon thanks, I was wondering what the fuck was going on.
>>748267716it's a strategy game where you set everything up before the battle. prep work IS the game.
>>748267716It's a neat trick but don't expect it to replace strategy. It's only changing probability, a 1% dodge is still unlikely and if you're doing no damage then you're doing no damage.
>>748266036without items no, the hardest difficulty is not piss easy. you will need to actually come up with synergistic units to win, especially on maps with multiple separate objectives like the final one, or the fight two sides at once mission in the beast country.
>>748269013>>748267003
I like building teams I like many of the characterswhile the game is easy, it isn't braindead or unenjoyable
>>748265004The game IS easy.It gives you all the tools you need to succeed. You just need to use them.
>>748269224game is easy as fuck on story and normal mode, correct. it is also still enjoyable and most of the cast is cool
>>748265004It's like a lot of tactics games in which it us easy once you understand the "meta" and system to create synergies between squads. I had a lot of fun my first playthrough just experimenting with squad combinations, equipment, formations, and AI commands. I put 200+ hours across two runs and enjoyed my time but yeah, once you get into the mid game it becomes a bit too forgiving with letting you keep squads mostly the same and enemy squads aren't quite as dangerous as they should be as they usually have generic equipment with no bonus attributes. Really wish it could have had a PC port, fan made campaigns would be so sick but as is it's a fun game but not exceptional.For me it's Selvie.
>>748269507>selvieman once I got the interaction with Josef telling her to not be late I knew she was the one slob? checkedoverpowered as fuck? checkedsexy? ultra checked
If you aren't already, make squads purpose built for the unit types giving you issues. Anti cavalry, anti armor, anti mage, anti high initiative, etc etc etc. Every squad should serve a specific purpose, and be tweaked often to fit each battle.
>>748266346Yeah, people in this thread swearing that you 100% had to have used a guide just because you aren't an idiot and can actually strategize and build teams is fucking hilarious kekThey don't realize that it just makes them look like a moron. Just because they can't do it doesn't mean the rest of us are that dumb.
>>748265321then you didn't play the game :/>>748269507>For me it's Selvie.A minority opinion, but I agree. Her personality and clothes were so tantalizing.
>>748265004I got filtered by the first boss armor guy so i feel insecure when people call this game easy
>>748267281there's a some level 38 or such battles in the first chapter. beating at least one of them is the only way to advance the path to get the bad ending
AUTOBATTLEREVERYONE WHO SPENT MONEY ON THIS MOBILE GAME IS A FUCKING RETARD
>>748267465Is this game actually good? >>748265004I haven't played this since release so I don't know where exactly you are or what is available to you, but you should make a squad that is just Cavalry units. It's so fucking OP. There are also just enough lances in the game that uhh... man I forget what Cav weakness is, but there is a lance that gives you an attack which counters it. I think it's like a line attack that is a guaranteed hit or something. There are just enough of those in the game that you can put one on everyone in a cav stack. I think it costs 2 red.
>>748273364>Is this game actually good?13S or UO? Both are good though a bit on the shallow side.
>>74827385613S. I played UO.
>>748273856I wouldn't call UO shallow at all, it's clear a lot of time went into making the system as expansive and intricate as possible. Sadly I just think tbe campaign doesn't do it justice, maybe it was fear of making it too hard but the game never quite pushes you as hard to explore it as it should have.
>>748274024I do wish there had been a NG+ difficulty, or at least a difficulty where all enemies had a full squad that was actually well equipped. The thing is, if UO actually pushed you, like if it actually required the OP shit you can do, then in a way it would be less fun because now the only way to play it is to freeze the entire enemy team before they attack or nuke them before they get a turn.
>>74827398313S is probably the most into a game's story in my adult life for what that's worth.
>>748274263While I like them in theory I feel like valor skills were way too busted, hastened call trivializes so many maps it's absurd.
So I just managed to get to level 12 and still haven't rescued Scarlet, I'm not missing anything important and can continue battling the level 13 missions right? Also just unlocked the moderate sigil for more free experience, advice?
>>748274868The Scarlett map can be kind of long, I remember on TZ having to do it a few times actually, the boss fight is kind of a casual filter both for new players on a first playthrough and then again once you get to TZ. Definitely be prepared for the hardest thing the game has yet to throw at you
>>74827336413 Sentinels is better written and very fun gameplay but not nearly as complex as Unicorn. It is extremely worth playing. The story is incredible.
>>748265004Game was midThe only saving grace it had the marriage system and the cut anthro girl
>>748274868>I'm not missing anything important and can continue battling the level 13 missions right?You'll miss nothing but you can recruit an NPC a little earlier if you leave a few maps until after.>Also just unlocked the moderate sigil for more free experience, advice?Come back to it if you think some teammates are lagging. I normally give a flying unit a boss-killing team, then hasten and them to the last enemy for the quickest EXP.Like the other anon said, expect a difficulty spike.
fuck horse galerius man, that guy has way too much HP and recovering a quarter for free after every fight is bullshitliterally the only boss in the game i struggled with in the slightest
>>748268705>Skill issue
>>748275260On the Moderate Sigil what I did was use both the catapult and ballista on my weakest level units and trying to get them all to level 13, so far is working wonders. Is Renault that difficulty?
>>748265004>Set game on a hard difficulty>Get frustated that the game its hard.Genuine question, are you in the spectrum or have any kind of mental disorder?
>>748275715>Is Renault that difficultyNo but he gets backup that's stronger than him
>>748265004TGINFU (This Game Isn't For You)
>>748275804>Set game to hard>You can't come out any fun strategy (because of the Devs a fucking killjoys)>You had to suffer through a needless long fight >You must use the meta strategy and items to win (killing even the smallest creativity)>Wonder why the people complaining about it
>>748276012>set game to hard>game is hardwow.
>>748276012>Set game to hard>It's hardYeah, you sound like a retard, anon. I'm sorry.
>>748275836very fucking nice i like that
>>748265004Skill issue.I never played a game of this kind before and it was extremely easy until the final boss, where they decided to turn this into a puzzle for some reason. And then it's easy once you adjust.I don't remember what they were called but the special abilities you spend points on are busted as fuck and make the game very forgiving.
>>748276092>>748276110>The game hardness mean the enemy using different strategy, items, skill and approaches not because the health pool increased ten times and the defence almost like a brick wall.Stupid NPC
>>748276229>Enemies have default stats in normal>Their numbers get increased in higher difficulties because that makes it harder.I think you are just coping because you got filtered. Most if not all japanese strategy games like these ones will follow the same blueprint to make the game harder.No one is forcing you to play in hard, anon.
>>748276494Bloating healthpool and defence stat are the most cheap way to increase difficulty
>>748265004meds
>>748276229you are talking to subhumans, not people
>>748272626Try again bro I know you can do it.
>>748272626The trick is that that barrier absorbs hits, not damage.Make a squad with a thief doing pasive steal or a fast wizard using the three fireballs attack.
