Endless Paradigm

Fantastic 6 (And Vi) Vs. the Robot Squad (And weak useless bugs)










They never stood a chance.

Team Rocket vs. Bobo the Hogar

... I suppose there's also the fairies guarding the Vine Rope (They're a boss too! Even if they're easy...) too... but Imageshack doesn't like nekkid boobies.

Anyway!!!





See that bull... pig... thing... that's a Hogar. Hogars are low level enemies but they can get plenty of attacks and they hit really hard. Around 40 damage with each hit, not pleasant. However this one has a nice easy trick to it!



This thing next to the Hogar's cage gives you the item "Rotten Meat". If you combine this with some Faerie Dust you get...



Now just feed to it to the Hogar and...



Now all wee need to do is the pick the lock (No screenshot, picking locks is not exciting) and attack the Hogar's donkey!



Unfortunately this game doesn't like the idea of me having easy battles so it decides to make Gadgeteer Oningun go and inflict Blind on it. GAhhhh!! This doesn't  sound so bad but enemies run away when inflicted with Blind. Very annoying.



I suppose chasing the bloody thing across the entire city isn't so bad. But then the freaking city patrol have to get themselves in the way. I suppose their help is nice, except that they're weak (Even BATS can kill them) and they like to block the walkways like so...



Anyway! Eventually I managed to catch up to the pig... thing... it didn't live long after that.



Stupid Gadgeteer had to make a simple battle so difficult! Arrgh

Goshi's Crazy Crew of Six (Plus RFS-81 and Vi) Vs. The Willow WEAKLINGS





My Rogue is right. They were pushovers.

Two castings of Freeze Flesh was all I needed. They died pretty quickly after that.

Goshi's wild adventures in the Trynton Sanctuary



Open door with the Blue Marble and...



Eh. Only a bunch of plants this time. The first time I played I had an epic battle with all sorts of Trynton baddies (Wasps and Spiders in particular). Every other playthrough though the enemy spawn ends up this small, kinda a shame really =(



Well plants are pretty annoying since they like to attack from a distance and inflict a variety of status conditions. Also you can't use magic in this room too. One of two places in the entire game actually. Unlike everyone's favorite Wizardry clone (Class of Heroes) where they're all over the place.



As you can see the battle was quite easy. My monks scored their first instant kills here which was pretty cool.





These just show a small side quest in the same room if your interested. It allows you to set up camp in this area without risk of getting ambushed.

Since I've now talked to Shaman Das I guess it's time for a status update!!!

Fighter and Rogue are still the best damage dealers... as always. They'll be like that for the whole game anyway >_>

Samurai is pretty much the same. Monk has improved greatly since I got the Staff of Doom, now doing much more respectable damage plus inflicting Hex is always great.

Gadgeteer still is need of better gadgets (A better Omingun too... should be upgraded to Mk6 next level). Bishop is still the support character, though now that his spell levels are much higher he can do decent damage (Though nowhere near close to my Fighter).

RPCs? Well RFS-81 is still a killing machine (Literally). Vi is decent but only because Polearms are great. If they weren't she would be more or less the same as Monk only without the damage resistance bonus (But not plagued with water weakness either >_>)

*Insert silly team name here* vs. The not so weak saplings







Were it not for Element Shield, I'm sure my Bishop would be thinking differently. No one eat 42 earth elemental damage. No one.

Even with Element Shield, Toxic Cloud is still very annoying. It knocked RFS-81(!!!) and my Gadgeteer unconscious. I suppose I could have used my Smelling Salts on them. But once I got into melee range, my Fighter would make short work of them anyway.

Goshi vs. The RATS



Big, fat, ugly ones.



Big, fat, ugly and powerful ones. That is. They're quite strong. Despite using such big axes their attacks are very accurate and...



What!? My Rogue died!? NOOOO!!!! I FORGOT TO BRING RESURRECT SCROLLS!

Reload.

Operation Nora Rescue Gadgeteer

The party's gadgeteer has been kidnapped by Crock! In order to save him wee must kill the dreaded Brekek! I have half the mind to kill the bloody blackmailer myself. But since he ironically, sells some great stuff for Gadgeteers, there's very little reason to do so.


Anyway the ferocious uh... frog.



Contrary to what RFS-81 believes Brekek was fairly tricky. I still can't believe my Rogue took 31 poison damage.



To make matters a little trickier my Fighter got swallowed. However I've reached the point were my Monk and Samurai could finally do decent damage, so Brekek didn't live long enough to digest my Fighter.





Now for the hard part. Getting back to Crock safely. Stupid swamp and its stupid Nightmares.

Goshi vs. the Tomb Keepers



That's the only screenshot. I reloaded three times because the Gibbering Heads kept making Vi and my Monk turn insane. Its really nice to know that my Monk can inflict instant death on my Fighter =(

The fourth try, the battle ended too quickly to take any other screenshots of interest. It only ended quickly because the enemy were stupid. First turn the Death Lord used Magic Missiles (Which was weak), the Gibbering Heads used Silence and Soul Shield. The latter I could care less about. Vi and my Bishop got Silenced but my Bishop focuses on Alchemy so it wasn't a hassle for him either. The Gibbering Heads died at the end of this turn.

Second round, the Death Lord used Lightning (Which hurts... a lot.) and ended up getting killed by my Monk. Fastest boss battle EVER.

hmmm. so what's the version on the ps3 then?
