The attack confused and debuffed ATK so it wouldn't stick if you had Bravery going (though it would cancel Bravery). I don't believe this to be the case in EO2 but I haven't tried in a long, long time. Generally speaking, a buff of X kind and a debuff of X will cancel each other when both are placed...

This might be a nooby question and not in the right spot, but... In your opinion, what are the the least and most useful classes, in order? In order? Not sure if I could do that really. Farmer, Android, and Beast King are probably my personal worsts and I'm not too sure what my best ones are. It's ...

It's kind of hard to say since sub-classing lets you blur the lines ... but just the base-classes: Front-Row: Prince(ss) Warrior Monk Shogun Android Back-Row: Zodiac (Caster etc.) Beast King (if only due to being a caster primarily, not a melee; they work in either row though) Either: Pirate Phalanx...

All sites look fucking awkward on a mobile device if they're not a mobile version of it.

Seeing as I have the Disgaea 3 DLC, I know very well what they are. It's also _$50_ assuming you waited for the bundle and it's really not that great. The Raspberyl stuff isn't bad and the "Time Attack" challenge-esque stuff is interesting but the individual character packs weren't terribl...

All the Ygg Weapons (the +210 ATK stuff) have a massive SPD penalty to them. They're pretty much completely fucking useless.

Considering the shitty Disgaea 3 DLC ... I'd have to disagree. Paid for DLC that's minor is pretty fucking stupid. Especially for unlock codes for stuff on the disc. I don't mind, say, BlazBlue's extra fighters. The game released earlier than it should've and for $20 less (which is the cost to get t...

Shogun/Pirate would need 10 Dual Wield, 8 Rapier, 8 Gun, 10 Self-Taught Swordplay ... but they don't need any actual skills since they'll do the bulk of their damage through regular attacks and Ikkitousen triggers off their regular attacks. So, 36 points for the Shogun/Pirate, or 38 if you get the l...

I don't get Ballista/Zodiac. I really don't. I see it often and it just confuses me, honestly. But that's neither here nor there I suppose. ...anyway, Phalanx/Shinobi or, at least for other RPing reasons, Phalanx/Monk works. Pirate/Shogun to go with a Shogun/Pirate is also doable as it gives Ikkitou...

And not a single one of those is answerable by Atlus USA... My only major questions were in regards to fixing the bugs (seriously, how the hell was turn-order manipulation bugged in _every single EO game_?) and if any other mechanics were changed for whatever reasons (hey, it's happened before on ga...

Out of curiousity, does Dampen + the Troubadour's buffs that boost your resists and lower the enemy's resist of the fire/ice/volt elements stack on the three dragons and/or Salamox? That might give me an idea for another character. No. Dampen is a final "check" in the resistance departmen...

Well, that's good to know at least now. I never really used my Phalanx so never really used Divide Guard myself in any testing capacity. Incidentally, Weapon Skill only applies to normal attacks. If you need a skill at 7 WeaponSkill, there's no reason to go to 10 barring the extra +3% to regular att...

The Guard skills, beside Divide, don't take a hit for anyone. I'll have to check Divide Guard's mechanics but I'm fairly certain the Phalanx takes the hit of the original target so the Phalanx's row is irrelevant to the damage calculation.
