Attack: He has good strength and he can equip axes, which are the best weapons in the game. In addition to being able a competent physical fighter due to his incredible weapon selection, he also learns Vacuum at a very early level (an instant kill spell), his Speed allows him to dodge and hit enemies reliably, and most of all, he learns the incredibly useful "F.Shield" (or "F.Shid" as the game calls it), which completely negates the next magic attack that hits him thisis simply GODLY. He hits hard, doesn't take much in return, doesn't have any non-offensive spells, and is kind of slow. So even if you die in this dungeon, you can still go back to purchase more B. Protects. Huh. That being said, Lux and Esuna DO end up taking a different route through the middle game than the rest do, so if that matters, there is that And then of course, since I intend to show off the differences between the two versions of this game, I have also given the original Elnard stat growths of each character in the Elnard version (in bold) alongside the ones they have in the English version (not in bold), just to give you a small sample of how much of a doozy this version is. Do we truly have what it takes to wrest this treasure from it's place of rest? A new short has been revealed by Pokmon Shanghai. Wilme: I wish you wouldn't show up again, at least not for a while. Uh, no, this is wrong. Here is a pic of the graphics that were added back into 7th saga. I remember I got the mirror exactly once before but I completely forgot where until now, I don't think I remember its use either.

And just what foul manner of beast will appear to drag us down to the very gates of Hell itself? Also, despite ICE2 technically having 52 more SpellPower than ICE, it's really more like only 31 extra points of damage since most monsters will have a good amount of resistance (though monsters at this point of the game only have resistances of like, 10-20, so that damage gap is something like 35-39 points right now), Damage = Magic/2 + (Random number from 0-15). Will you help me? All told, that was about 30 minutes of gameplay I just did, which is actually pretty fast for this section of the game. If you change your mind, let me know. I've watched you train hard day after day. The entrance is deep inside the cave. He has a strange shiny stone which the King wanted. Blow the Whistle when you meet Romus. Edit: thanks for the tips, Im really enjoying the game so far. Info. These guys on the other hand are basically just recolored Thwomps, packing lots of Guard, but no Power to speak of. Fortunately though, one of them may also heal the other up for 40 HP if ICE2 takes off a big enough chunk of health, so even though this fight can kill you, you can generally get through it so long as you're careful and show good strategyand don't take a critical at the wrong time. Now critical hits (which you'll know you've gotten if your character attacks twice in their animation rather than once) multiply the resulting Damage by 2, and if you Defended the round before your attacked, your "TotalAttack" is multiplied by 1.5. No really, everything about this conversation just cracks me up, from the matter-of-fact way R-Pison pronounces his name change, to what one guy described as "the blithe way the game just pulls a fight out of thin air and expects you to roll with it". In the House of Healing, you can be treated for poison, and recover your lost companions. Obviously, this becomes a bit of a problem if you, say, run out of healing items at some point, and then are forced to go ALL THE WAY to the bottom of the menu each and every time you get into a fight (and if you're playing this game, you're going to be fighting A LOT!). Or perhaps even do that for everything from now on? In fact, funnily enough, this one of a select few acts of mercy the localizers have shown us, as this item, and other hidden items throughout the game, were not present in the original version. To help you guys do that, I am going to be listing the characters in order of who helps beat the game the quickest, so the top character is the fastest, and the bottom character is the . People from all over the world go to the tavern in town. =). Oh well, I guess there's no point in being choosy, but who could possibly Brantu: I found the entrance to the lost civilization. But after that, how about we check up on our old friend Gain? Take care of yourself. I DON'T NEED A WEAPON FOR THIS MISSION. Good-bye. And with that, we move on to the next part of the intro, with this awesome music! No, in fact, according to someone I once emailed who came from Japan AAAAAAND then the localization happened, in which somecontroversial decisions were made. It isn't in the sense that the people you call companions one minute, can be battled and defeated the next. His stat development is also quite ordinary and not too deficient in any area. And yes, you actually DO lose a Topaz, so that's another beginner's trap to be wary of. Well, the answer is simple: it's a well-known fact by now that the Japanese version (Elnard) of the game is much easier than the U.S. version (The 7th Saga), but the differences go so much deeper than that! Designed as an RPG with a much simpler story than say, the SNES Final Fantasy games, it nevertheless featured many revolutionary ideas, such as the ability to pick your main character, animated battle sprites, the ability to actually see random encounters, and most of all, the ability to fight, recruit, or even just chat with whatever characters you didn't choose. However, because the game itself is so minimalistic despite the abundant potential for story in it, I wish to make occasional updates where I will bring up various fanon theories made about the game by its fans over the years. If you get lucky beating this thing, well, needless to say, money isn't going to be a concern for a long while, though with a Topaz, our revenues don't exceed the cost of beating this stupid thing by much. Well guys, we did it.

But if you bring a partner with you, that reduces the levels you'll both be at all the way to Level 27 by that point in the game, and while that's not crippling per say (as long as you have a well balanced team), it's definitely not what you'll want, therefore, I still count it as a beginner's trap. Ukitake isn't a particularly adept fighter, considering his lifelong illness, but his strategic and tactical intelligence more than makes up for his physical failings.

Because of that combined with his lack of offense, he is still the 5th slowest character in terms of completing the game, as well as one of the more annoying ones to do it with. I thought it'd be fun if we took a look at some of the changes, both major and minor. We're still really, really hurting for experience, and having it split between two party members is the LAST thing we need right now. "Doing what Nintendon't" my foot, though it's still not as bad as Lavender Town in Pokemon R/B/Y.

However, despite his gentle facade, Lux is an incredibly powerful and is shown to be an effective warrior in his quest to find out who created him, and why. In any case, when greatly simplified, the damage looks like this Damage = (TotalAttack - (TotalDefense / 2)) * (Random number between 0.75-1.25). You'll never win! Put that on top of having the 3rd highest HP Growth, the 2nd highest growth in Defense and Speed, and the ability to equip magic resistant equipment, and you have yourself a character that can take almost every single kind of attack AND dish out damage. The seven characters state their goal at the beginning of the game: Wilme the alien: "I can't imagine the power I might have when I get the Runes." Lux the tetsujin: "During this journey, I wish to find who built us Tetsujins and for what purpose." Olvan the dwarf: "I'll be young again when I have the power of the Runes." Kamil the human: "I'm the best suited for the . My only other advice would be to learn the 2-3 best spots in the game to farm xp/gold and just spend a few hours at them.

If you give me a Topaz, I'll tell you a secret. But, lately monsters have been getting tougher, and you're so.strong, so, I just think Esuna: Sorry, but solitary traveling suits me better. Romus must be happy now. Are you also looking for something called a Rune? Hope you'll visit us someday. I mean, I'm not the most socially adept person ever, but I'm assume you wouldn't be taking a cross country trop around town just to ask "hey, has anyone seen this one random person who doesn't live here, but may or may not have gotten here yet"?
