For gathering items from loot points? Definitely 5 Survivalists. Stalker can outright prevent random encounters, and the more Survs you have, the more items you can gather. Unfortunately unlike EO3, there's no way to prevent battles on loot points. They're typically rare though... it doesn't hurt to...

Why is your Sniper subbed Fortress? I don't see any benefits from the Fortress skill tree for a Sniper. You already have a Fortress as well, so it has a level of redundancy. Iron Wall to keep him from dying, of course. Maybe Nightseeker or Dancer would be better though, for multiple strikes to get ...

IMO probably the strongest physical damage dealer in the game http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbP7qUiIASo Nightseekers are far and away the most powerful physical damage dealer. Imperials are also physical damage dealers, the Drive skills are considered physical attacks, including the elemental driv...

I like the FM Synth stuff and the orchestrated stuff equally. Neither is bad and both are certainly good. The orchestrated stuff is fine, beyond FM Synth, he has other great tunes (Couldn't find the version from the first 7th Dragon ;_;). As Zeta mentioned, some of the tracks were pretty weak. I ac...

IMO the further into the game you go, the more you'll need ELE damage output, which is what makes Imperials so useful (and, conversely, Bushi relatively useless). Elemental damage isn't exactly why an Imperial main is all high and mighty, while a Bushi main is somewhat lacking... its really about t...

Seriously: I think you guys are fussing too much over the trope. Just because it's overdone doesn't mean that it's not going to be done well and very pleasing. I guess, but its more than likely to she'll have one or more of these traits: - Has some hidden power that plays central part of the plot -...

I already have a Runemaster for that. And I subbed the Linksknecht into a Runemaster after tracking down the old synergy thread. Does Runic Gleam affect Links or is it only Runes? Pretty sure it does effect elemental attacks. Kirjonen's build suggests using that to power up his Bolt Strike so I...

Yeah, auto surge is bad if you ever don't surge. Also, bushi isn't good for Linksnecht, because Bushi benefits people using mostly normal attack. Actually the main reason you would use a Bushi sub is for Charge, Defiance and Blood Surge to augment the power of your physical attack skills, like our ...

I personally think this is interesting. The Pokemon games' habit of forgetting the previous legendaries is a pet peeve of mine. They didn't forget Mewtwo in the last generation, since he they gave him a signature attack. Scary, scary move. Who was after that anyway? Victini - Embodiment of victory....

Ah. Gotcha. So wait, you can battle him and you can't use a Formaldehyde to get multiples of that item? Wow. How many times will it take to take him on and get all the items for at least 10 or 11 of your Guild-Members? I am curious. Also, the Tharsis Comet... Is that what you get after you comp...
