FOE?

[Mishy]

When do you meet your first FOE?

And how much more powerful (level wise) are these FOEs?

[heprea]

You sure you want to get spoiled? :o

I guess I could check their level and when they first appear if u really want to know em. >.<

Not really much of a spoiler, but whatever. Open it if you like:
[spoiler]The Second Floor (2F). A couple of Ragelopes are wandering around. Though you'll probably get down to this floor at level 5-ish, you should probably be about level 10 before you can acceptably take them on. Level 8 if you've got a particularily well optimized party. Expect to lose a party member or two at that sort of level though.[/spoiler]

Mishy, think of FOEs like this: mini-bosses. They hit harder than the normal monsters of the level, they are more leveled up, and most of your game time should be spent AVOIDING them. Keep that in mind! When in doubt: avoid. Spend time memorizing their paths and coming up with strategies of how to get around them - and keep LOTS of warp-wires on hand, 'cause if one of them corners you, you will want to get out.

It's true. It's ALL TRUE!!

Somewhat OT: If you think the second floor FOEs are hard, the FOEs in floor 20....

I didn't save, either.

Yeah, that's about the same as I would do. Though, I would usually lean more on the side of "come back a little farther" but not so much farther that the items unlocked by the drops wouldn't still be extremely useful. It's a careful balancing act.

This game is so tempting... and evil. I thought I could tackle that floor but nooo.

My damn Immunize wore out and FOEs gangbanged me and and raped my party waaaah. /whine

Tip: Bring lots of status ailment curing items and TP restoring items.

*nods* Be afraid, be very very afraid - no, I mean this absolutely seriously.
Rule of thumb, never take on a FOE (if you can help it) unless you've saved recently. However, don't be SO terrified that you don't want to even go near and try to learn its pattern of steps - or even manuever it if it's a chaser. You gotta have nerves of steel in this game.


Small hint drop, but could be considered somewhat spoilerish:
[spoiler]Some stratums will even feature FOEs that are NOT meant to be fought until you are MUCH farther into the game.
Don't be one of those poor people who actually try to level grind to defeat these terrible fiends.[/spoiler]
