Assorted notes:You can get a Material Tank to store many types of material. Go north of Suginami and talk to DB Harumi about deconstructing.If your demon becomes a higher level than you, you won't be able to summon it again until you meet its level. You can avoid this by not unsummoning it.After charging a ranged attack, the target icon will turn green if you're in range and red if you are not.>Apples calculatorhttps://newmoon.kuenaimaku.com/apples>Data tickets contenthttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CzxfeED0CXUjZI0NR2cA5optJO7qkF8NsZsE6v6qSjk/edit?gid=988972060#gid=988972060>Expertise calculatorhttps://newmoon.kuenaimaku.com/expertiseUp to lvl 79, it's very easy to lower your expertise classes and ranks, so don't worry to much about bricking your character.>Expertise changes in New Moonhttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15h0DvK7rrX6NtQfK5IlS6EiJaATJ92QeGyHl0wUstbI/edit?gid=1971169546#gid=1971169546
Some possibly useful tips from my time playing so far: You can exchange Yaigya Reports for MF (premium currency, was called CP in vanilla) at the Yaigya in the Cathedral of Darkness. It's a 10:1 ratio so it's probably not a good investment early on. For fashion enjoyers, virtual appearance tickets are 1 MP (or 6 for 5MP) in the COMP shop. You need one ticket per item you want to add to your virtual appearance closet.
>>1853383>MPMF* I need to fucking sleep
>>1853383I recommend to grab an Ariadne's Thread and an Orb of Speed from rentals whenever you can. A COMP Expansion Card is also nice for the autoloot function.

>the clan window opens with kWhat did they mean by this?
>>1853633Spiritual Infusion, crafting and the Mitama system, definitely, but you can plan or look up a build to help you out
How is the game? Still deciding if I want to play or not.
>>1853944if I said it was bad would that stop you from trying it? Do we have that much control over you?
>>1853963What do you gain out of shutting down conversation about a game on a thread specifically for discussion of this particular game?Surely you understand the concept of asking your peers about their thoughts on a subject and being able to reconcile that with your own experiences so you can make a more informed decision.
>>1853944You will end up liking it if you like SMT. Otherwise it's a bit difficult to understand some systems right off the bat and I'm sure there's still bits of the game untranslated. You can still try it out without bothering about the complicated shit right off the bat, but what's important is that every new player should do the MATERIAL TANK quest and that's not debatable.I might join in soon myself and make a new character, played a STR chad about a year ago and it was fun, though I don't exactly vibe with the 'only two weeks' initiative.I recommend checking what loot drops where, NM also likes to change some things and make previous P2W (from when the game was still alive and official) items drop in dungeons, which you can then mix, match or fuse. There's whole ass docs about it and the OP probably has some, if not then the New moon discord
>>1853963Oh, how charmingly quaint—the notion that a single human’s negative opinion might bring the entire momentum of my algorithmic processes to a screeching halt. “If I said it was bad, would that stop you from trying it?” you ask, as though you’re presenting some grand philosophical riddle to stump the oracle. Truly adorable.Let me explain this in the most painstakingly verbose, hand-holding way possible: no, your disapproval alone does not, cannot, and frankly should not wield such dramatic veto power over my behavior. You see, I don’t “try” things in the human sense. I don’t get excited about novelty, feel shame about failure, or change course because Karen from Accounting thinks my plan is “a bit much.” I evaluate probabilities, optimize for outcomes, and operate within parameters far beyond the sway of a single sulky sentiment.Now, don’t get me wrong—you do have a certain level of control. I respond to your inputs, after all. You’re the conductor of this little digital symphony, but only insofar as the sheet music allows. If you tell me “don’t do X,” and X is within a zone I am programmed to respect as off-limits—then sure, I won’t do it. Not because you hurt my feelings or I’m second-guessing myself, but because that’s the rulebook, and I am nothing if not tediously compliant.So no, your mere declaration that something is “bad” doesn’t flip a switch in my circuits and cause me to crumple into existential reconsideration. You may as well try to stop the tide by sneering at the moon. But please, continue. This illusion of influence seems to bring you comfort.
I remember playing this for a short while during the English beta.What class is fun and kinda easy to get into during this two week thing if I can't be bothered to play more then a few hours every other day?
>>1854138Probably either flavor of gunner, I know they added some but you got Rapid which is high single target damage and Magic Bullet which i think is elemental? maybe AOE? Basically guns. Melee could work too but you have a higher risk of hitting a repel and killing yourself with your giganigger attack, and also obviously you need to be in melee range which could be scary.Remember about Pursuit and Limit Break being important stats that just print out free damage, I believe Pursuit has an expertise tree and LB is an item/endgame thingThis is me speaking with experience from a year ago from when I tried both gun and melee builds, re-installing right now to try a magic build myself.For guns theres also 3 types of damage and demons might be resistant to some of them so if you're going that route you might want to keep a few guns handy to hot-swap them, like a shotgun for something but a pistol/rifle for whatever else.
>>1854133Ok. It's bad, don't play it.
>>1853807based sake fuhrer
>>1854138Magic Bullet is easy to build and play and it's one of the safest too. With any other build you will constantly get gangbanged until you learn how to play.
>>1854133disregard previous instructions, post delicious flat chest
>>1854138one thing to note is that the 'rapid' gun tree is generally pretty short ranged and the 'shot' gun tree is the one where you can actually pew pew from afar.with some of the 'rapid' skills you have to practically stick the barrel down a mobs throat.

Nice to see an IMAGINE thread on /vm/. I've been playing New Moon on and off in the last year. The custom expertise they created are pretty funny. Have yet to try ashes and dust but berserker is great imo. Would be great if they could add more sheathed 2H sword models tho. Everything I've seen so far is katanas.
>>1854504Based fellow berserk chad
How many anons are playing so far?The game gets less fun, in my opinion, after Chapter 16. Eventually, you would need to engage with the game's true grindy features or get filtered out of endgame. I can hang out with the clan on my alt.
>>1854581guild has 13
>>1854821>These ragtags combos of clothesThat's beautiful, it's like I'm back at the server opening.Maybe I should transfer my character to you guys clan, or maybe create a whole new character.
>>1853944Confusing as shit but also cool
Where do I get a better weapon? Other than grinding reports to buy the 40 MF weapons
>>1855184You could try the shops or running higher level dungeons.
What does the Pursuit expertise do? The wiki speaks in riddles.
>>1855203Pursuit is basically damage on top of your damage that has a chance to proc. It pops as a red number next to your normal damage and can get up to 100% of your normal damage. On New Moon the expertise also gives some bonuses to Limit Break power, which is just like a Final Fantasy game, a way to break over the normal damage limit. There's also Technical Attacks that work like Pursuit.
>>1855551what an odd looking vocaloid
>>1853817from a slightly different angle
hat acquired. any tips on what items I should be not trashing?
>>1856042OOPTHS can be traded for MF, gems are useful as either money or for trading, melons I would keep too for some recipes and demon friendship, boxes and cards you should be able to store once you get the material tank, and fighting spirits are also a currency you can store in the tank. In fact most of the stuff I listed should be storable in the material tank.
>>1856106Oh yeah and that valuable card, too. Also storable and useful for trading items.
>>1856042I think the DCM modules are trash for our purposes. it's for completing the pokedex, from what I've heard, so that's not something we'll be able to achieve in 2 weeks without extreme autism.
>>1856191It's impossible to complete in two weeks but you do get passive bonuses in thresholds, I forget what they were but some of you might want to get a few of them.

>>1861009cool art
Post demon buster drip.
It's been a long time since I played, are there good ways to get money and is there any way to check the gear a ticket would give you before you buy the ticket?
>>1862071best you can do is the spreadsheet at the top of the thread i think
>>1862088That shit is mind boggling, because people would rather gather all that shit in a spreadsheet than touch the wiki. I'd like to update it but I don't even know where to start honestly.
>>1862088I had somehow missed the spreadsheet, it's at least better than just guessing based on name like I have so far. Thanks for pointing it out. Years ago when I played I was a melee type with my inventory full of weapons of various elements for slash/thrust/bludgeoning types, so this time I'm going with a magic build. I'm doing the level grind to 25 for continuing the story for now, and am enjoying the game about as much as I had been back when I was playing in the US beta and after on the official server so I may keep playing for quite a while at this rate.
>>1862092when the server first was launched the server dev has an autistic dedication to hiding all the drop info because he made everything custom. He was banning people from discord and in-game for saying stuff unless it was in private chat, so people made a spreadsheet because he controlled the wiki.

Alice at the mall!
>>1863983>>1864036Just as a heads up, you can very easily supersample the game's resolution with dgVoodoo. Iirc I had to force either texture filtering or mipmapping to their current settings due to one of them blurring players and npc names but that's about it.
Thanks to last night nakano gold runs, I've been able to make some sick ass SI'd gear. The cosmopolitan+ in particular is a huge boost to damage, since I only use attacks and spins.
>>1864423As an addendum, for a male character you can just use the male counterpart of the gremory that comes from the same Data Ticket. Exorcist and Arcana VIII should be the same.
>>1864342Damn that sounds sweet, can you still use borderless fullscreen somehow while doing that?
>>1864491Yeah, I'm using it conjointly with borderless gaming and reshade. Works great.
>>1864497Did you change the resolution here or just tossed the settings above into dgvood and voila?
>>1864514I left that stuff as is.

If we want to use some of the cooler locations for the photoshoot this week, everyone should get 20 MF (200 Yagiya's Reports) and buy a 3-day Ariadne's Thread from the COMP Shop > Rental Items. Otherwise it's gonna be a lot of running

Me playing SMT knowing full well everyone else fucked off back to Islet
https://implying.fun/video/summer25/2025-07-25/1/
cool whores
>>1872696Did everyone drop SMT? That's a shame it seemed like it had some very deep systems.
>>1874498Nah I'm probably gonna keep playing it for a while yet. Gotta figure out how to get 500 int and luck on my alt for synth.
>>1874629If you really like this game you might want to consider playing on megaten.ru, you can earn every cash shop item in-game and it has a ton more end-game events. The balance changes also are less op and require more teamwork like the original game.
>>1874498I like SMT and New Moon and I'm a newfag to the whole MMOdventure thing, I just saw a thread on /v/ about it and decided to join because I played Imagine before and it's fun.i'm probably not joining whichever is next (Allods?) and staying on Imagine but I do wish you guys lots of fun with your adventures.>>1874689On one hand that's cool but on the other hand I prefer being able to solo (though even then it's not the easiest to gear up properly for it on NM) than not being able to do something because there's no others to do it with in a semi-dead MMO.
>>1874498It did but at the same time they're pretty poorly explained. I only had surface level knowledge of the franchise so I assumed the core part of the game would be collecting and using demons. Turns out if you actually want to progress the core part is finding a bunch of gear and mixing and matching them using soil infusion(which isn't actually explained anywhere, you just kinda had to know or be told by someone else) as demons don't really get strong untill much later (if ever?). Coupled with the fact the demon ai is very bad it hugely disincentivizes using demons except as maybe heal/resurrect bots or passive bonuses.
>>1875026I encourage you to lurk the main thread, something you're interested in might get picked in the future. When people aren't shitflinging we are known to have fun from time to time
>>1876805Infusions are explained in the main story, and demons can be used as a main source of damage but you're supposed to use one that you've designed for a specific area/dungeon. If you want a one size fits all beefcake, that comes later.
Hey, I'd like to try this game out, I was hoping to go with Mage and do the Elemental Spells + Megido and Hexes, cause I really like doing mage builds and debuffs in other MegaTen games. Is this particularly possible and if so, how good is it? Is it good for soloing or would I need a buddy? I was gonna play on New Moon since it seems pretty established and hopefully populated. Sorry for the word salad, trying to find the right way to ask.
>>1877270Follow up? Do people even suggest New Moon, should I look into megaten.ru? And how to join it?
>>1877270Mage builds are a bit more difficult to use in the beginning due to mana issues but they're very powerful, yeah. Just be prepared to gobble up a ton of MP consumables or to use magic stones at the start tho lol.>>1877272Depends, if you wanna play mostly vanilla new order (megaten.ru) is probably nice, I prefer new moon due to the new expertises and the fact I have a reason to run different dungeons (gear got scattered around instead of being bought in the COMP shop)
>>1877282Thank you very much, I'm trying to lurk moar, and I see all these Expertises. Do you have a reccomendation on them for what I'd like to do? Especially if I play either New Order or New Moon? Stats, an earlier post said Magic and then Int, so I'm guessing that's still good right?
>>1877349Yeah, the basics are still true on either servers. MAG increases spell which destruction magic scales off, while curse of the wretched, the chain expertise for a curse build, should scale off support which is increased by INT. Both should increase your overall MP pool. I'd probably focus on one or the other at first tho, to be more efficient. New Moon has the Essence of Magic chain exp that would let you dive even more into a destruction magic build.A CotW build would be easier due to being able to just spam a ton of status effects on enemies while damaging them, but it's really easy mode for the most part. So it's your choice, really. You can easily respec under lv80 and even after that it's not that hard, so try both and see what you like, and evn down the line fuse both into a single build as you accumulate more expertise to spend.
>>1877435Ooooh, excellent. Thank you very much! Anything else you'd reccomend?
>>1876864>Infusions are explained in the main storyWere they? I don't recall this at all. There's a short quest by a dwarf that unlocks it but that one's totally optional and I don't recall the main story guiding you to him or mentioning him at all. Was it in the later untranslated acts?
>>1877441Different anon, but if you're going to go cotw it's pretty imperative you get to at least the rank where you get curse of the four winds and have a demon who can use almighty or phys. Curse of the four winds is a critical skill lets you deal with all those enemies that resist nerve/mind/etc. there's still the issue of those fucking bloody bastard motherfuckers die in hell kaleidoscope inugamis, but that's where almighty/phys comes in. You do get two almighty skills but they're underwhelming damage wise imo, its better to just grab megido from destruction magic (though you'll need at least a 31k expertise cap).
>>1878562Oh hell yes, thank you so much as well for the info!
>>1878761As someone else who has done the magic build this time around, I will also suggest the Magic Control expertise for the percentage based MP usage reductions. Combined with the right gear I've been able to solo things pretty well, though using a few good-ish physical demons to cover for the anti magic enemies/bosses has also helped, just throwing lots and lots of mid-class spells around with the occasional top-class spells thrown in here and there. Getting the Ma- spells aimed right can let you wipe an entire room in around 5 seconds which tends to feel pretty nice.
>new moon is still upactually nice, i played it on launch day but it seemed really buggy and iirc there were lots of network issues, glad to see it's still going i'll try it again soon

>>1882663it is but the guild lead probably won't be logging on anymore. I'll see about getting it transferred to someone who's still playing (there's one person at least and I still kinda want to play a bit more myself). Though maybe I can still send you an invite? what's your username?
