Putting the tank in the back row is only viable if the rest of your team isn't made of paper. Or if it's EO3. Really though, how hard would it have been to make the Protector do its job? I'm not a game design expert and I don't claim to be. Can someone tell me how hard that would have been? Well, i...

I also moved her over to the right side so that certain enemies with splash effects would only be able to hit two targets instead of all three (damn arm hammer). *blinks* Wow, I feel rather stupid for not thinking of doing this myself after all the times this has happened. Excuse me while I make my...

^ Its not a reliable strategy since binds and ailments are not guaranteed to land, whereas the Protector's Front Guard, Defender and such can be used whenever its necessary without the possibility of failure. Reliability is always a plus in this business. What business? The misery adventuring busin...

I'm also of the not-slept-much-by- Coeurl club. The Random Number Gods saw fit to let it excessively subject my party to Avidya Apostle instead. For what it's worth, the lousy thing's weak to Ice attacks if you've not already figured it out through trial-and-error (I may not like that Analysis isn't...

Also, err, if I may ask a question that may be some real late-game spoilers . . . I was a-browsing GameFaqs forums to get a little extra info and I saw a little passing bit that we might be able to get Kupala as a Guildkeeper; is there any sort of special dialogue tree nonsense or Things To-Do to m...

So we're sure that everything that applies to ailments means both status conditions and binds? I personally have no idea; I was mainly mentioning it because it seemed like a very 'support-the-Hexer' option as well as a skill that does sap from their HP some (as Wolkenritter was looking for ways to ...

Boy, has it been a long time since I posted here or what? (Answer: It has been.) Just picked up EOU a day or two ago because I (rather late) realized it came out earlier this month and I actually had funds (bit of a stupid snafu where I found out after the fact that my memory card didn't have enough...

Yes I did. Still, it kind of bums me out when I DIE. Especially when avoiding those PUMPKINS. God damn. Good thing I'm playing in Casual Mode or else I'd be destroying my 3DS. Yeah, the 6th Stratum does tend to annoy at times with the dire, dangerous encounters. I actually didn't have m...

I think I managed to feed a Happiness Hare to an Icy Pincer , so you might be able to try that. I sincerely doubt that giant Bizarro-Moais have anything resembling a diet, though, so we all might just be out of luck on feeding the Keepers and Judges . If anyone knows otherwise, though, I'd also be c...

Nightseeker/Arcanist Doctor Lautrec... I had to actually look him up, and snickered a bit at the on-the-surface similarities between him and the Professor. (Could they at least have tried a design that didn't have a similar hat and color scheme dragging our attention back to Layton?) Was nice to re...

Aside from that, I've learned to hate the Count's 'Find me this on the map' quests. At first they were awesome but now? No... They're puzzle like now. I don't want my brain puzzled when I am making a map. I am an adult. I am not part of that system... Thank you, I now have a mental image of Profess...

I feel so left out back here at 3rd Land BF2 when everyone's talking about endgame areas. Also, what is even up with this underground lake place. I cannot fathom this... stuff . The 3rd Stratum, I find, is about the most sensible (as in, the best excuse for an) interpretation of a Hailfire Peaks st...

Speaking as someone with a regular 3DS but not a 3DSXL, I'm tempted to say it's probably just the 3DSXL's problem, but then I'm not sure what I'd really be looking for by comparison so I might not be the best one to say yea or nay in that regard. But so far the music's seemed to be alright during my...

The others who posted said most of what I'd want to anyways, but here I go anyway. 1. Do the later strata REALLY require you to have a mage to defeat the bosses? I was thinking that I could just add elemental attributes to get around this problem for EOIV, since you can basically reforge your weapon...
