Re: EOIV Rantage!!
Runic Precision only seems to trigger on initial attack on a Link skill... wonder if that's the same for Blood Surge >_> It probably does, for a very specific reason. The link damage is a percentage of the initial hit's damage. I'm fairly certain the follow-up hits are thus affected by any buffs (i...

Re: 3DS or 3DS XL?
By the way... Top 4 are 3DSXL, bottom 4 are 3DS. The way I see it, top 4 are 3DS, bottom 4 are 3DS XL. At least top 4 look better than bottom 4. Maybe the order is messed up? Second from top - looks good First from the bottom four - looks bad Nope, there's no mistaking it. I'll admit that I wasn't ...

Re: 3DS or 3DS XL?
Okay, easy way to solve this. I have a 3DS and an XL (don't judge me). I took a few pictures with my phone of the same scenes. I apologize for the crappy cameraphone quality. Keep in mind, the framing choices and such make this kind of trivial, since I wanted you to be able to actually see what's di...

Re: 3DS or 3DS XL?
Was this the case with DS and DSi XL as well? Because playing console games on a larger screen doesn't make the games look bad. But playing DS games on a DSi XL does make the games look really, really bad. I just want to know if EOIV looks as horrible on a 3DS XL as its predecessors looked on the D...

Re: Missing Forge Hammer (forge list)
Just a friendly reminder about dancers and pierce/splash weapons: you're trading your sword dance for pierce/splash. Unless it's bugged (in a good way) and sword dance only claims to not trigger for splash/pierce.

Re: 3DS or 3DS XL?
I... don't think you understand. The 3DS doesn't have more pixels than the 3DS; it has larger pixels than the 3DS. Technically speaking, there is no "upscaling" or "downscaling." Those are terms used with regard to stretching, skewing, and antialiasing between different resolutio...

Re: 3DS or 3DS XL?
Well, I've spent significant time in the pixel art scene, so I'm not sure if that makes me an authority on the subject or disqualifies me... I wasn't bothered by the upscaling in any of the EO games. Obviously, you're going to see increased pixelation, but there's not really any good way to avoid th...

Re: Balancing Link based team building and support (early ga
As far as triggering links goes, none of the samba hits will trigger links. Your normal hits will, and Sword dance helps make sure you get more hits in (since each hit will trigger a link), but the samba hits won't actually help your links. They're more like quasi-links of their own. actually chase...

Re: Balancing Link based team building and support (early ga
Attack Tango can improve the damage of your link attacks, and the Sambas... well, I don't use the sambas much so I don't know how their mechanics work. On the other hand, I've used the Sambas pretty heavily. For a primary dancer, there's only one samba you really want - Trick Samba. Sandwiched betw...

Re: EOIV Rantage!!
So, I've been a bit behind on my post-endgame, since I was training my second generation of adventurers up to 70 (after my original team became guests then retired). Just now beat the first of the three dragons (Blizzard King, in this instance). It was... disappointingly easy. I know I'm pretty opti...

Re: EOIV Rantage!!
I am familiar with how to extend egg-timings. Do Etrian Odysseys keep count of number of uses (2 Eagle Eyes = 6 turns), or are 2 turns of an old effect + 3 turns of a new effect simply pointed out as longer than 3 turns of an old effect? I would guess the second effect simply extends the first effe...

Re: Maze help
