Try attacking him when he changes to his offensive stance, he initially starts in his defensive one, which takes reduced damage from virtually everything. You should spend most of the defensive form turns priming your party's nuclear strikes.

Re: EOIII Rantage!
Wildlings, Princes and were such wasted potential.
Cool movesets, great utility, and a couple of my favorite portraits, even! Lackluster as hell on bosses or as a main class instead of subclass.
Even zodiacs were pretty meh for damage.

Re: EOIII Rantage!
Wildlings probably could've been better if there were classes that actually had synergy with them. This is the only EO game with no classes that use binds or ailments to their advantage like Nightseekers or Dark Hunters.

Re: EOIII Rantage!
Took back the game since I'm done with EMD. I'm at the third stratum and shifted my party a bit.
Mid second-stratum I changed my Buccaneer to a Wildling, but it was pretty much disappointing... Once I beat Ketos, unlocked subclasses and leveled up everyone to level 30, I retired everyone to get a new composition (well, pretty much the same strategy as before, but with different main classes).
Front line : Hoplite/Monk (for passive regen when using shield skills) and Arbalist/Gladiator (Nine-smashes spammer)
Back line : Ninja/Princess (elemental buffs and Regal Radiance), Monk/Princess (classic healer) and Arbalist/Zodiac (main target for Regal Radiance)
Love that party so far, just need to put everyone back at level 28-30 to progress through the third stratum. The second stratum fish-like-FOEs help a lot for this (since Regal Radiance can deal around 2k-2.5k damage to each fish every two turns, and I can group them to kill 3 to 4 at the same time).

Re: EOIII Rantage!
Heading through this game yet again, seince my brother didn't wanna play it. this time i'm doing Ninja/monk/hoplite front row with zodiac/arbilist back row. haven't had much problem, although i don't know about the future due to no specific damage dealer besides i guess my monk?

Re: EOIII Rantage!
You should probably put your Ninja in the back. Their class ability allows all weapons to deal full damage from the back row as well as lower TP costs.
Also unless you're building it in a specifc way, Arbalist is a damage dealer among damage dealers. Giant Kill along with with either Front Mortar or Armor Piercer is absurdly powerful.

Re: EOIII Rantage!
alright, i'll try that. I probably won't invest much into front mortar until my hoplite can keep the front row alive with line guard

Re: EOIII Rantage!
Again with my terrible thing where i restart a lot, I've come back to this game, and am rather determined to finish it
My current class set up is
Gladiator/Hoplite/Bucceneer
Monk/Zodiac
Gonna be trying out some new things i havn't done before with my gladiator and bucceneneer, mainly using clubs on the gladiator and rapiers on the bucceneer. I hope i can make it through it this time!

Re: EOIII Rantage!
Why is the drop rate for gigapede legs so stupendously low? like, they're the one thing from monsters i haven't gotten yet. legitimately. I still don't have a gigapede leg.

Re: EOIII Rantage!
Gigapede Legs were a pain in the arse to farm, I agree!
Man, I really need to get back to my EO3 playthrough. No tank is weird but I seem to be doing okay for only being ~level 11 and on the 3rd floor.

Re: EOIII Rantage!
I've made it to Narmer! And i almost had him too, if it wern't for that meddling Mud throw screwing up everything when he was like, 2 turns from dying. He went under after blinding my front row.

Re: EOIII Rantage!
I swear this game is so much more frustrating early game than EOU1 or EO4. I just can't make money to save my life unless I go fishing. A single dungeon run costs me 160 ental to break even (60 en for inn @ level 12, 100 for the ariadne thread), and I swear my healer's TP get sucked away super fast. I guess having no tank doesn't help, but...I'm worried about whenever I get to Narmer. Maybe I should just farm floor 2 for a while to get some drops to cash in on.
