is it a pain to get those max ranks?

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 2:08 am

cooking is easy just remember to rest at a haven when you come across them so Ignis can cook, some specifically generate party side quests too, Prompto is easiest. Fishing one is a bit annoying because it's boring but plenty of quests linked to fishing

I am almost lvl 7 with Gladiolus, that's the most time consuming one because you have to run around on foot and it levels up slowly, tbh I'd probably have it if I didn't realize that was how it ranked up, since I smashed Chocobo's instead of traveling on foot once I got those, should be an easy plat, nothing is missable

Only fishing is a pain for me. Still haven't caught one fish since the tutorial. I tried for like 1 min and gave up. The others are well underway of maxing and should be done without paying any extra attention to them. It just happens as you play.

Particularly the cooking, as you start to get more ingredients and recipes you receive huge bonuses from it. So I try to cook before hunts and quests.

lmfao that was so annoying in the old ff games. They actually got it in this one too :facepalm:

Please don't tell me that cactus enemy is in this one as well ffs

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 6:27 pm

that dungeon was like a maze, I was there for an hour, did the quest, beat a boss..figured it's a dungeon with no royal weapon (looked it up to make sure since I never want to go back there) turns out the OP boss was the sub boss and I missed the main boss Laughing

but it was so annoying, luckily I went into my inventory and had 3 moon pendants to stop being turned into a frog but it was literally every 3-5 seconds before that, I got it down to about 1/20th of its HP left and because the fight had gone on for so long I could summon which was good because I needed the trophy

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 6:29 pm

legit used up 95% of healing items in that dungeon and I don't have much Gil left after spunking it on stupid things ffs

had like 100K at one point

Also finally started to upgrade my accessories from the bangles lol..had so many OP upgrades there

Of course Cactuar is in the game! he can't not be. FF fans would riot.

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 6:36 pm

oh yeah and I'd been neglecting magic until that Dungeon btw, never again, absolutely essential for strong enemies and boss types.

Is summon satisfying af?

hopefully Odin is a summon too ffs.

by rincon Mon Dec 05, 2016 7:05 pm

Summoning is rare but you get all excited when it happens and it wrecks everyone.

Only have the first 2, don't if Odin is coming.

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 7:08 pm

seen lots of FF fans saying they were disappointed with summons, I have only had 2 prompts (1 more inside the story) to summon, each summon can only be summoned under specific criteria in a fight, both times for me were the same summon and it was at a point where I didn't really need it anyway as I had finished off the bosses more or less. I think this summon only happens if the fight has been going on for a lengthy amount of time, I know another summon is tied to all of your party being knocked out or something.

got the whiskers to upgrade my lance and going to get the horn to get my Engine Blade upgrade Proud

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 7:10 pm

Sold a bunch of my treasures but only the ones where I had lots of them, raised like 60K for 10% of my stash.

I've been using magic all the time, One of my favorite things. I'm in Myrlwood right now, Firaga just dominates here.

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 7:17 pm

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 7:22 pm

Chapter 8 feels exactly like what FF VII remake should be.

by RealGunner Mon Dec 05, 2016 8:37 pm

Found that Leide dungeon

>level 48 enemy spawns
>how bad can it be?
>Kills entire party in 3 shots
>reload save
>back to fighting level 2 enemies

Finally finished chapter 1

I thought the whole king Regis thing was handled pretty well Firenze hmm

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 9:44 pm

just beat the boss in the mines ffs, mad intense

by Firenze Mon Dec 05, 2016 10:27 pm

RG how is it taking you so long, swear you've been smashing this, chapter 1 ffs? I'm legit doing every single side quest I can besides one that's too high lvl for me before I head to Altissa that big city that's like Venice from the gameplay videos I saw last year. 45 hrs played. Guess I'm about halfway through the story. Hope there are a lot of side quests in Altissa too. Can see this game taking me 70+ hrs. Hear the end game content is great too.

by rincon Mon Dec 05, 2016 10:29 pm

man you have 45 hours in 8 days :bow:

I feel like Ive been playing nonstop and Im at like 30. Just hit chapter 8.

I haven't played much. Often 30-50 minutes a day. I just keep it on most of the day.
