THUMBNAIL ART BY: 「せいはち」(The uncropped version is in his art gallery!) せいはち's ART GALLERY: https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/3498832 Special thanks for giving me permission to use it! [Pixiv is basically the Japanese version of Deviant Art] ENEMY AI: Thugs (solo): Always attack Thugs (x4 battle before Joker): If x1-2 are dead, there's a 25% chance of calling for another Thug, after the 1st action of the turn. If x3 are dead, this increases to a 37.5% chance. Either way, this can be done up to 16 times (which is why the Firecracker is so desirable) [Hoods are supposed to be able to heal themselves and each other with Herb, and also gang up on whichever party member has less HP. Two bugs make this impossible.] Black Widow: 1/64 defend Otherwise: 193/256 Poison Attack, 63/256 Attack JOKER AI 1/64 defend Otherwise: 65/256 Psn.Chop/Miasma, 191/256 Attack THE ROUTE: Overworld: Remove Rand’s Bronze Helm IMMEDIATELY!! Roll on to Nero’s House for sequence triggers! Township SAVE YOUR GAME!! Head back to Newhaven Newhaven: Do cutscenes at magic school, then go to Mt. Rocco Mt. Rocco: Auto the Thug Answer anything but "Payne" to the guy that quizzes you, then Auto Switch Ryu to the front before checking the hole Auto the battle until Lin’s in danger; she’s more fragile than Ryu Take 4 steps in the next room, then heal Ryu Skip the treasure for now, and keep going up Auto the lone Thug Firecracker the x4 Thug group! – You'll enjoy a full party heal right before... --------------------------------------------------------- VS. Joker (580 HP): Scatter Herbs with everyone when he uses Psn.Chop/Miasma (~25% Chance to do so) – Miasma does normal melee Damage, just to everyone in the party, while attempting to poison. Ryu may be able to delay healing, since he's bulky – Everyone outspeeds, so you'll be fine. Spam Frost with Nina, since he’s weak to it --------------------------------------------------------- Get all the treasure you skipped before on the way out (100z, Silver Knife, Lucky Charm, & 1000z) Only Ryu should attack the Will o’ Wisps & Ghouls, once he has the Silver Knife Nina should more-or-less just Defend, since none of her spells are quite strong enough to OHKO.
