i havent gotten a game over....yet

tired orbit
#

@iron bone was there the one ring in hell mode

iron bone
#

Yes

#

It should be in the black castle shop

ripe tinsel
#

Found the dragoon modifier
Is there a info on what certain settings do. For example
Elemental bomb?/enrage? and ultimate boss?

next mortar
#

There is small questionmark next to these settings, if you hover over it, it should display a tooltip explaining what it does

#

Elemental bomb just changes the element of an enemy to match the one of the Item you chucked at him had (only works for items that say "powerful"). Enrage just increases enemy damage output when they drop below certain HP thresholds (as if hellmode alone wasn't hard enough). Ultimate Boss one Idk either, Im assuming thats for some of the extra content DraMod adds.

From the readme :

Guess I should have read it lol I never payed attention always assumed it was just a how to install

Hey! Joined a few days ago, been playing the hell mode RB3 beta and I am loving the more challenging gameplay! To make it quick, I cant find the changes to all the additions. Really just damage and SP amounts, compared to original LoD. Is there any info anywhere on this?

iron bone
#

all the info in the excel sheet i made is outdated

feral bramble
#

i figured, lol. its all good. im in feltz by now anyway. it's just that it seems like additions that give more SP seem to be better than not. just due to the unique character abilities requiring dragoon usage so i was mostly just trying to see which ones have the best SP gain. TY!

iron bone
#

Oh those dragoons are for level 50

jaunty bobcat
#

They're beatable, you're just going to get one shot constantly and need miranda instead of meru lol.

next mortar
#

Dude he was 62 health

#

And I had to use all my magic and revival items

#

Tried to not use dragoon, but its just not it

tired orbit
#

s...s.s..s...skill..---s.kill issue?!!! /s

next mortar
#

I have no idea how did Ink beat this without Dragoon

#

Went into it with this

#

I was 29/32 items, maybe more potions was the answer

#

Also Ig shouldve grinded the extra level

iron bone
#

Press R3 to level sync your team

next mortar
#

I felt like I'd be cheating by doing that, so I opted out not to. Feels like the extra Dart level will help a bit too. Will prob just use it as a mechanic to even out the exp in case you win boss with dead party members.

That being said, I'm curious about one thing - I keep seeing different numbers everytime I do an addition. Is there just some RNG range where they can hit? The unmodded game had consistent numbers and personally I find it frustrating if a mob runs away with 1 HP remaining cuz rng said screw you PanDerp

Also some settings in DraMod seems to automatically turn themselves on - or rather at least Enrage. It seems to happen whenever the game is loaded. Not sure whether this is intentional for testing or if it's an oversight, so just reporting that.

tired orbit
#

enrage increases enemy def which reduces your damage as battle goes on

next mortar
#

I forgot about the def increase

#

I thought its just damage

#

ugh

untold zealot
next mortar
#

Yeah I grinded a bit and got hin on second attempt

#

+1 level and 2 levels on addition do make crazy difference

#

Lavitz went from like doing 10 dmg to 30

untold zealot
#

yea big diff with lvls early

urban haven
#

Not sure if its intended. Ultimate boss commander soldiers are susceptible to instant kill status. Didn't even think about it. Headed over there after lloyd and haschel naturally has brass knuckle equipped.

#

And the commander himself can be poisoned, also an accident on my part. juicy 6400 ticks of damage.

iron bone
#

i allow certain bosses to now have status effects

#

those mobs already didn't have the status resistance

#

fruegel 2 i implemented one turn/hit status effects

urban haven
#

are you supposed to get rewards from the EXP screen? commander died to poison so maybe i didnt get kill credit?

#

my r3 also says 0 ultimate bosses defeated

iron bone
#

you should get the kill credit just by going to battle results screen

urban haven
#

yeah i've done it three times, once without poison kill and im not getting anything for the fight or completion on the r3 menu

iron bone
#

🧐

#

are you clicking "next ultimate boss"

#

if you got no rewards it detected you completing the boss

urban haven
#

im clicking "ultimate boss"

#

but i tried with "next ultimate boss" and both options load me into ultimate commander

#

to clarify, i didnt complete the fight after using "next ultimate boss"

#

is that neccessary to get the rewards?

iron bone
#

if you go in normal menu and change your ultimate boss to 2 and click start ultimate boss from dramenu

#

does it change?

urban haven
#

after "beating" the first one?

iron bone
urban haven
#

okay so on the fourth try it worked

#

the only thing i can think of is that none of the enemies died of a status.

iron bone
#

i'll have to check the battle ended event trigger

#

it should trigger even with monsters alive when you do crtl+w

jaunty bobcat
iron bone
#

uh sure

Question

Reading through the ReadMe files I noticed a bunch of bosses says not in beta but has some of their names, hp, rewards listed

Are these extra boss fights the only thing not included from the 3.0 beta? Example is the current version of the beta completed up to end of the story and just missing final tweaks of additional side bosses?

iron bone
#

the extra ultimate bosses will be available in the phase 2 of the beta

#

so far there is only 8 out of the (so far) planned 42

#

these bosses have script changes so it takes longer for me to do.

iron bone
#

is anyone ready for faust spamming psyche bomb 🙂

Hello everyone, first boss to actually give me issues is Lenus 1 in Hell mode.
. 90% of the time she’s casting spells that nearly wipe my team and occasionally attacks 3-4 times in a row. Ive tried Dart Shana and Kongol as well as Dart Shana and Albert (a little more access this time). Is there some trick I’m missing to through this endless stream of AOE spells?

full bolt
#

Are you using dragoons?

#

She gets free turns if you transform

fallen kettle
#

Yes, most of my team is level 4 dragoon.

#

!!! Oh, I didn’t realize that

full bolt
#

You should transform only if you need the power to finish her

fallen kettle
#

That will make this much more manageable

full bolt
#

Idk if transforming and exiting the dragoon form on the same turn works or not tho

next mortar
#

Pretty sure she enrages the moment you transform

#

So if you transform even once, she'll be like that

#

I think the strat is to take her down to like yellow without Dragoon

#

Until then, she will pretty much only spam physical attacks which dont do much dmg

#

After yellow she will start using magic, so its good idea to rush finish her then

#

I think most optimal will be Dart to maximize the fire dmg boost, but I havent gotten there yet, so Im not sure how will the actual fight play out.

fallen kettle
#

I think this is exactly the info I needed, thank you.

#

There isn’t an indicator for enrage outside of the icon indicator based on health so I couldn’t figure that out.

full bolt
#

Also, if you use Dart special, you should equip his fire sword to maximize the dmg

#

I mean you should against her anyway

next mortar
#

Yeah and stack up on some burn outs if you can, I dont really remember the places where u can buy it tho

#

Honestly Lenus 1 is a filter, Im not looking forward to that fight myself

full bolt
#

She's alright, Lenus 2 is harder 👀

next mortar
#

In the base game, Lenus 2 was easier imo lol

full bolt
#

Yes sure but not in hell mode

fallen kettle
#

I don’t think the fight will be bad now that I’m not enraging her on the first turn 😂

next mortar
#

Back when I was able to play Hard Mode on emulator, it felt like that too, we'll see if I get there on Hell beta

iron bone
#

i should probably release a partial update with the disc 3/4 rebalances at least

#

i will do that later tonight

#

i only fixed... 2? bugs so far since good chunk i can't replicate.

#

but also it would be nice for y'all to use the more updated base SC version.

fallen kettle
#

Hmm, I’ve been duped. Maybe there’s a turn timer? She is not enraged by her health, I have not transformed, and she is now constantly casting spells.

#

But haven’t lost yet!

hidden wraith
iron bone
#

you just drag and drop

hidden wraith
#

Could you elaborate just a smidge please, sorry new to running the game like this

#

Definitely enjoying the challenge though, first roadblock was the ninja at hoax before kongal lmao, stopped me a good two days to figure out how to get past being two shotted

fallen kettle
#

Oh well, this boss is seemingly impossible 😂 Putting this away for few days.

fallen kettle
#

Lmao, as soon as I become a dragoon to burst her when she turns yellow she spams magic and my whole team gets wiped

#

Even with speed boost item Dart gets one turn

hidden wraith
#

Interesting

My planned team was haschel, Shana, and dart

fallen kettle
#

I was hoping Shana could survive to revive everyone, but the triple magic turns in a row really mess things up 😭

hidden wraith
#

Is there an item in the game like the elude cloak early on but for magic? Gives 20% dodge chance to physically, if you had a magic version shana innately has 5% so she could get up to 25% and rng roll it for survives?

fallen kettle
#

Yes, I have those and may try that next, just feels sort of crappy relying on RNG that much

#

I forgot the exact name, but I’ve got them

feral bramble
#

im playing through story on 3.0 beta, anyone know why miranda is missing from my party? she isn't in my replace screen and i think has been gone since the divine dragon attacks the crystal palace and she goes to the queen, but never rejoined. she just never came back, i've beaten lloyd now and shes still gone?

#

shes also still in the dialouge scenes but just not the actual party

full bolt
#

In the dramod menu you should have a "?" button

#

I think this is the one that put her back on the team

feral bramble
#

in the R3 menu?

full bolt
#

Yes

feral bramble
#

i saw it at one point before the divine dragon fight but its not there anymore?

#

the swap shana option works so i guess i can just leave her in

full bolt
#

IDK sorry 😅

feral bramble
#

its all good, i searched the server for any info and didn't see anything so i guess i just wanted to make sure the issue was known. i wonder if it can happen in the base game as well?

iron bone
#

# fallen kettle I forgot the exact name, but I’ve got them

Alright I got frisky and tried again. I put those 20% magic evade items on everyone and survived—barely.

However something curious was happening. Sometimes my healing items would miss and healing breezes would only heal like 100. Are breezes 50% or current HP instead of max? And does magic evade make healing items miss?

hidden wraith
#

But good to hear the rng risk payed off lol

full bolt
#

Is it only on Shana?

full bolt
iron bone
#

i've used evasion items fine in my playthrough the cause is unknown

#

after i wake up let's see how far i get or what i feel like doing and i will release something tomorrow.

next mortar
#

Healing item miss? nervous

#

Would it just display Miss and not heal you?

iron bone
#

it's a bug and i have no clue how it happens

#

i just set evasion to 100/200 and it didn't happen so

fallen kettle
#

This battle is the first time it's ever happened to me and I've been using healing items liberally

feral bramble
cedar path
#

Just want to point out a quirk in dramod that’s a little vexing. Shana gets the awesome elemental arrow feature, love using it. But you have to grind to get them, and it really seems you intended very minimal grinding in the mod. Just a little inconvenient 😅

nova mulch
#

Lavitz solo has been fun so far, minus the prep for Virage 1 >.>;;

iron bone
next mortar
#

+1 for that

#

Especially the fire arrows since theres only one area in which you can farm it

#

And those Salamanders are beyond annoying on hell mode

iron bone
#

that... is a good point

#

volcano villude fire arrow increased from 12%->36% drop rate
the rest are 12%->24%.

iron bone
#

wow it's been a month
i may have fixed the healing thing but i am leaving a bunch of debug statements for it
i may have fixed some dragoon spells counting as elemental bomb by putting the item magic attack type check (still hasn't happened to me)
i fixed the halo of balance doubling up on 30% max hp/mp
i fixed the dragoon physical attack bug
i fixed rose triggering siphon gain when using items
i fixed an issue with meru's ice shield
i fixed the "repeatitem" event so that it just reads from the table every time so weak shield is no longer repeatable

Dart's additions were rebalanced.
Lavitz & Albert's additions were rebalanced.
Rose's addition were rebalanced.
Meru addition were rebalanced.
Everyone has lowered addition unlock levels.
Meru's boost ability is removed since she has ice shield now.
All dragoon's elemental infusion physical attack spells have been moved to level 6 except Lavitz/Albert.

Shana's elemental arrows deal more damage without using her Ultimate weapon.
DraMod SC version updated to sep 20 build (i will wait for java 25 testing)

(WIP) Finalizing disc 3/4 boss adjustments
Lavitz/Albert gets a new dragoon spell
fixed protection shield not showing up on the correct character
Kongol casts protection shield when using some Dragoon spells

and i might skip ahead of my plans and add something else since i already got the necessary feedback for hell mode

nova mulch
#

oh no, my boi lavitz about to get nerfed, better finish this run before patching! lol

iron bone
#

everyone got nerfed. the dragoon physical attack had an additional multiplier.

nova mulch
#

... I meant the additions rebalance

#

also, much as I love the bandit ring, Physical ring Lavitz has carried him through Virage and Firebird, I forsee a trend in the future

iron bone
#

it's just to make him slightly worse than kongol as intended

nova mulch
#

Thats fair

#

Going to be sad when the lavitz speed item nerf happens... if it hasnt already and just isnt displaying

iron bone
#

was there since first beta release

nova mulch
#

i'm not a smart man

iron bone
#

he will match kongol in magic damage in the next update and be worse for physical while both of them provide different defensive utilities. the main problem is kongol gets stone axe so late while lavitz/albert gets twister glaive so early.

hidden wraith
#

Where do I get the patch update? Or is it not live yet?

You mentioned above disc 3/4 being ironed out, so should I pause after playing disc 2?

iron bone
#

if you can wait a day or two for the update to come out

hidden wraith
#

Sounds good thank you!

untold zealot
#

Lavitz final addition big carry f nerf

nova mulch
#

final addition Lavitz made Virage 1 solo bearable xD

hidden wraith
nova mulch
#

Yes

nova mulch
#

107 attacks later, Haschel has finished soloing Doel xD

#

unrelated, Haschel has now attacked 107 times

nova mulch
#

oh

#

oh no

#

I'm getting infinite comboed to death

nova mulch
#

I find it fun how the physical ring and therapy ring have carried me so far

#

using only one person

hidden wraith
#

least until you get soul eater lol...

nova mulch
#

I aint about to use a weapon that drains hp

hidden wraith
#

But big bonk stick

nova mulch
#

planning out how to beat the virage in valley of corrupted gravity rn

#

for now, Dart will be my test dummy

#

He's in danger

#

that was one attack plus therapy ring healing

#

riiiiiiiiiiiiight

#

the left hand can insta kill

#

well then

hidden wraith
#

Oof

#

What lv are you

nova mulch
#

24

hidden wraith
#

Damn

nova mulch
#

perks of using only one character up until now

#

pretty sure we arent making it through this time Lavitz, but I want to shrek that hand

#

you might say this fight is an... arms race

#

I am going to be a little sad if my solution to this wall has to be the dragon helm, but at the same time... dragon helm

iron bone
#

i think you'll be excited when you get to fueno

hidden wraith
nova mulch
#

I have swapped out who has fought, but yes

hidden wraith
#

Daaaang dude nice! The mod is hard enough with 3 characters i can't imagine doing that yet lmao

nova mulch
#

Lavitz solo's up to the first virage okay, but the fight's hard as fuck, so I got maxed out flower storm for it, and it STILL wasnt a walk in the park

#

then it was smooth sailing until doel

#

needed Haschel for that one

hidden wraith
#

Nice, Jiango is the one i'm stressing over cause plan to run shana and well... she is paper to physical lol

nova mulch
#

She is decently fast though

hidden wraith
#

Oh definitely

nova mulch
#

Therapy ring will go a decent way

hidden wraith
#

Is it worth putting it on her? I've only ever used it on dart

nova mulch
#

its 10% healing per turn, so it will buy you a few extra turns here and there

hidden wraith
#

Hmmmm i'll have to give it

nova mulch
#

Hmmmmmmmmmmm, Angel scarf is A thought

iron bone
#

anyone who was complaining about guard going missing was using combat debugger

#

it sets your dlevel to 5 if you are at 6/7

nova mulch
#

Huh... I learned something new today

#

00 parts cant flee if he cant attack, meaning charm potions prevent him from running away.

#

if the whole party uses them

#

wait WHAT

#

Shana just hit 00 parts for 2 o.o

iron bone
#

Shana is a girl boss that's why.

nova mulch
#

I never use her, so I never expected to see an interaction like that

iron bone
#

it's her attack boost changing damage

nova mulch
#

Shana, I apologize

#

and then OO parts immediately pun..... so interesting interaction

#

shana died, OO parts ran away

#

game crashed

iron bone
#

crash log?

#

or did you already open the game again

nova mulch
#

already opening again, I think this is a fringe situation deal

#

where the entire party is dead, but the enemy ran

iron bone
#

well we patched replacing dart in three party configs

#

but we haven't patched any issues with less than three.

nova mulch
#

I'm solving the issue the "normal" way, putting an amulet on Shana and calling it a day

#

sad to see the 150% accuracy go, but I value not crashing

iron bone
#

damn finally lmao.

#

im finalizing disc 3/4 changes and then new update

hidden wraith
#

Any chance of more optional endgame bosses in the next update? I remember ya saying 8 were current 🤞

iron bone
#

Yep there is a few new additions.

hidden wraith
#

Woohoo! Also my first arrow for shana woot!

nova mulch
#

Hmm, even using Haschel with the dragon helm the virage just hits too hard...

#

yea, first enrage doing 1400 to Haschel at level 24 xD

#

time to test Meru xD

#

though this might hilariously become Shana vs the Virage

#

so, funny story

#

This is shaping up to be a shana solo fight

#

depending on how this goes... I am buying throwable magic items and gonna crush this

#

Shana, I regret not trusting in you sooner

nova mulch
#

she did it!

#

LOOOL! watching her jump up and deck it was great!

hidden wraith
#

Niiiiice dude

nova mulch
#

it was definitely a tedious fight

#

and probably very possible without the dragon helm

#

since the head was doing 480ish with its laser unblocked

nova mulch
#

Hmmm

nova mulch
#

just a few items

iron bone
#

i knew 6 items worked in the original but technically you can get 7 here

hidden wraith
#

Nice

nova mulch
#

I missed an item, tragedy

hidden wraith
#

What does weak shield do?

nova mulch
#

Think that was a shield on you at the start of the fight like enemies have

#

bosses I mean

iron bone
#

50% max hp shield for the selected character

hidden wraith
#

Okay I REEEEAALLLYYYY Like the free cast spells in the higher dragoon levels, makes it so i don't need to carry as many items on attack spells

hearty grotto
#

hello its me again and im still getting the same crash as before even after getting dart alone and attacking an enemy then running away this is the screenshot from after that crash

iron bone
#

give me like an hour i am doing something jank for it

sweet wyvern
#

Building geometry offthread isn't already jank? 😆

iron bone
#

i will release the new version without the new bosses

sweet wyvern
#

Why not use a render event

iron bone
#

shh i am making a new method

#

or... that...

#

wait both.

sweet wyvern
#

You shouldn't render in a random thread, it won't be synchronized with the render thread

#

You never know what frame you'll render on

iron bone
#

im just adding a new overload method to add a Y offset.

hearty grotto
#

hey im sorry for bothing so often but i think i mighta learned what the issue could be

#

it seems to only happen when i have meru equipped with the spirit bottle accessory and she is the first one to act on turn order

iron bone
#

that... makes sense because the render number method didn't initalize a real number.

#

i will test my new code with that equipped thank you

hearty grotto
#

no problem was gonna test it some more myself

hidden wraith
hearty grotto
#

spirit bottle is an accessory you can buy in fletz that gives 80 sp to the person equipped with it on their first turn

hidden wraith
hearty grotto
#

@iron bone yo as an update i got it to work on haschel so it might work on anyone going first with it on. think im done testing with it though i just wanted to get meru to dlvl 2 and shes almost there anyways

iron bone
#

good enough for me and on same thread.

saves from previous betas compatible with this update?

iron bone
#

yep

iron bone
#

Download is in pinned message someone test please.

hidden wraith
#

Will download and try it after work

Just to confirm I basically just copy paste everything in save file, and drop the iso files plus save into the new version and should be able to continue campaign?

iron bone
#

Just copy and paste into your existing folder and replace all.

hidden wraith
#

Alright that sounds simple enough, thank you!

untold zealot
#

worked past kongol

#

eary mode disc 1 nerf'd 😱

iron bone
#

i am thinking of following japan demo where the master addition is the second best dmg/sp.

untold zealot
#

It would be an interesting thought to make the additions something to be used not because of damage but because of sp / statuses / equipment effects on per addy hit / restore mp...etc.

Japan Demo additions make a lot of sense though for Hellmode.

hidden wraith
#

I guess it really is hell mode considering only 666 files need replacing LOL

#

Font seems different other than some addition changes

#

The "press A at X time" indicator is pretty cool, gonna tinker with the timing on it with some of the more janky additions

#

Guarding heals full 10% of max hp now and no longer the 8% of max hp, was this intentional? Did not see it mentioned on the patch notes

#

Ability to exit dragoon form on one use also don't see on the transform menu, used to have a dragoon icon to deform after 1 attack

#

I remember you mentioning dragoon additions were over calculated and doing more damage then intended? Hit about the same for around 300 just now on the gargoyal so not seeing a difference atm

iron bone
#

actually that will be a base sc problem hmm odd.

Do you need me to look for something specific on this? It's at the bottom of the page currently

Still trying to get out of the shrine, failing to escape so gotta brute force kill everything lmao

uh do we have the escape chances on our wiki last i check they were brutal

hidden wraith

it's failed 100% unless i had shana with the boots that raise it by 20%

Alright excuse the spam this is the entire log

#

After that just repeats the bottom part like 100 times while opening scene played during screenshotting

#

HOPING this helps?

hidden wraith
#

Uhhh side note, is red eyed dragon supposed to unlock at lv 5 in the mod? i remember hearing it goes to 7 so wanted to make sure it was working correctly...

feral bramble
#

Would anyone know of a reason for sabre not dropping from ultimate boss #1? I didnt get anything else either. Just nothing. I did just switch to the v1.3 beta

hidden wraith
#

So some other testing, red eyed dragon costing 80MP deals 200 dmg as first opening move at 1020% scaling, Final burst costing 30MP dealt 132 in same scenario, addition at yellow health not even on perfect deals 165 dmg, can you elaborate regarding the scaling against crystal golem having an addition at half hp on the opponent deal nearly as much as the opening fight dealing 200 with an 80 MP spell?

Just trying to get an idea of the scaling when the menu says over 1,000% scaling

Edit: Wiki shows it does have higher magic defense but i wouldn't expect 40 points to make THAT much of a difference for 80MP vs an addition not even being perfect WITH teh enrage system affecting it

im going to work on fixing the ultimate boss stuff now.

feral bramble
#

yeah i did ultimate boss instead of next ultimate boss which is what im assuming the issue was. Also when doung that boss i used: power up, power down, and speed up. and now they are gone from my inventory. I can restore the save so its not an issue though.

iron bone
#

did you set your inventory limit higher than it should have been?

feral bramble
#

nope was set at 32. and i had used some healing items too so i was below 20 items in my inventory after killing it.

iron bone
#

did you trigger the too many items screen? hmm let me try

feral bramble
#

? not sure nothing extra seemed to pop up or anything

#

bringing my 1.2 save file to 1.3 wouldnt of messed anything up im assuming, right?

iron bone
#

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

well that's an immediate hotfix. thank you for reporting

feral bramble
#

ye no problem glad to have caught it quick

hidden wraith
#

Just to confirm on the above, is it the repeat items not coming back or the ultimate boss drops that are the immediate fix? Just so i can be cautious on what content is affected

iron bone
#

no the repeat items are broken

hidden wraith
#

kk i'll avoid using those for now, tyty

iron bone
hidden wraith
#

kk ty, that was a fast fix!

iron bone
#

ok i will work on the next 3 ultimate bosses and fix that no reward bug.

#

the github has been updated so you can update from there too

hidden wraith
#

JUST found the readme showing the new items lmao, never checked the mod folder until dropping the file above in there and it prompted an override i was like waitwut?

Did drake always drop bandits ring? Edit, have a CHANCE i mean

Hi everyone i am playing Lod on retroarch using dragoon modifier but my dragoon lv keeps returning to lv 1 for some reason any idea why

iron bone
# vast adder Hi everyone i am playing Lod on retroarch using dragoon modifier but my dragoon ...

before you get too far i'd recommend using the severed chains build for hell mode https://github.com/Legend-of-Dragoon-Modding/sc-dragoon-modifier/releases/tag/v2.0-HellMode-Beta-1

GitHub

Hell Mode only upgraded to a custom build based off of the in development Severed Chains RB3 build. Some changes and features to this build may not be implemented to the final versions of Dragoon M...

#

in old hell mode dragons will delevel as an anti grind measure.

vast adder
#

Unfortunately i did try severed chains but having a problem with it think my pc is to old to handle it😑

#

Is there a way i can change that so it won't delevel my dragoon spirts

iron bone
#

graphics issues, what cpu/gpu?

iron bone
vast adder
#

Think is cpu related as when lavitz joins and you encounter a battle the fps drops to 10 but when fighting alone with just dart everything works perfectly

iron bone
#

ah well good luck, dragoons stop deleveling after the last kraken. each disc boss will also severely drop your level.

vast adder
#

does hard mode do the same

iron bone
#

no

vast adder
#

only hell mode

iron bone
#

only hell mode on emulator will delevel you.

vast adder
#

thank you so much for the help really appreciate it

hidden wraith
iron bone
hidden wraith
#

Thank you! I have the rest of the week off after work today so gonna peek around it

iron bone
#

i removed it sincce the majority of people found it annoying and if they got stuck they couldn't out grind the boss

#

i am still considering dragoon level caps based on the disc you are on

hidden wraith
#

Ahh

Did it cover addition levels? Example if I had crush dance unlocked on dart, got de leveled, then lost it, and re leveled to relearn it, did it keep current progress?

Noticed this when lavitz lost his 2nd to last addition I was working on with the most recent update it went POOF

hidden wraith
iron bone
#

the unlock levels for all additions have changed

#

gust of wind dance is now level 16

hidden wraith
#

Ahh that ain't too bad only a couple off

iron bone
#

if anything i will lock dragoons to level 2/4/6 within disc 1/2/3 only in battle without deleveling your dragoons.

hidden wraith
#

As in, if we GOT the xp to reach let's say 3, we are still locked to 2 until disc 2, then instantly jump to 3? Or gotta reearn that xp?

iron bone
#

instant jump

hidden wraith
#

Sweeet

iron bone
#

also i can add in the "zychronix challenge" since i am the lowest level out of all of you who mentioned your levels for t he bosses

#

which would stop you from over leveling

hidden wraith
#

Is it possible to block the ability to save in the overworld, and manually add save points to Inns? Would drastically change boss planning and item management 😂

iron bone
#

uh yes but why

hidden wraith
# iron bone uh yes but why

Reminds me of one of the ollldddd school final fantasy games, basically one of the final areas of the game gives a massive spike in difficulty and no save points with over 2 hours of boss gauntlet fighting

So you die? Major setback

Similar idea here

iron bone
#

y'all can turn off save anywhere yourself 😛

hidden wraith
#

Welp I can tell arena wasn't adjusted 😂 😂 two shotting everyone up to Lloyd

magic fox
#

Hi does 1.3 disable the option to distranforming from dragoon form after plays the current turn ?

hidden wraith
#

Mentioned that one too earlier ^

iron bone
#

So it's you do one turn it shows up then not again?

hidden wraith
#

Doesn't show up period from start of fight once you transform, can go through any character any amount of turns and never once will appear

magic fox
#

Sorry doesnt read everything ^^

hidden wraith
#

You good lol

#

Want me to upload my save file Zychronix?

iron bone
#

sure

hidden wraith
#

1sec lemme kill this last trash mob, was farming up haschel additions before hellenia 2nd run

#

I think that's it?

iron bone
#

no one got this on their startup right?

magic fox
#

I didn't get that ^^

iron bone
#

you had 1.2 before yes? go to the mods folder and delete dragoon-modifier-2.0-SNAPSHOT-all.jar and try again

magic fox
#

Another question : I saw in the read me text that you can use the dra mod menu to add everyone at level 1 to the party when you take control of dart but when i start i only got the option to swap in/off all dragoon stones, so the question is : we cant begin a new run with everyone at level 1 ?

magic fox
hidden wraith
iron bone
#

yes

hidden wraith
#

kk once i get out of this fight

#

Mod is deleted and destransform icon is still missing

#

Healing also is still restoring 10% vs what was supposed to be 8%

#

when you defend

iron bone
#

oh.....

#

i think i found it one second

hidden wraith
#

Oooo shana does 2 to 00Parts

magic fox
#

Another thing : i tried to use Light Arrow with Miranda but instead of targeting the ennemies you can only target the party and after the dragoon magic animation it turns the screen into a white screen ^^

hidden wraith
magic fox
#

My screen after the attack ^^

hidden wraith
#

Side note with Shana's dragoon form, randomly i get +50 SP while INNN dragoon form when using her 0 cost spell, it doesn't always return SP but has enough where i can get 1-3 extra turns even at Dragoon level 4 if i spam just that

Bug or intentional?

magic fox
hidden wraith
#

Also a less subtle note i noticed, Rose was NOT able to use angel robes when in vanilla playthrough, yet on this mod she can, originally was Meru and Shana only from my testing without any mods and just running severed chains

magic fox
#

Fan Suggestion : instead of farming elemental arrow why do not let Shana/Miranda have unlimited arrows as a unique mecanics who can do use huge physical damage ( at shana/miranda scale so low but higher than base damage ) if you use on a elemental weakness ^^

hidden wraith
#

Her current scaling, so at lv 28, with 2x elemental effect, she'd deal over 4x damage

magic fox
hidden wraith
#

Excuse my gal, she got uhhh cheeks clapped on melee lmao

iron bone
#

extract this to your folder and replace all and detransform should work

magic fox
hidden wraith
#

Wait which folder specifically? or did you mean just extract that zip and replace entire current patches folder?

iron bone
#

replace entire current patches folder

hidden wraith
#

kk one sec ty

#

Yup detransform works! That was super fast dude nice

#

My main concern on that was for dragonblock staff healing with shana, and lloyed insta kills later lmfaoooo i was like awww crap ight we going oldschool then

#

So angels prayer did restore half hp, and a healing potion did send him back to full hp, so both were doing their 50% on haschel correctly @iron bone

To be fair balance wise if it does actually give infinite arrows... and decent base attack power IMO fair

Iirc vanilla when i last played YEARS ago i think even just hitting 1300 with her was a pretty decent freaking blow

magic fox

I'll be honest i'm still debating on maining shana over meru, meru was my first OG LoD completion carry, however i feel like shana deserves justice after the shithole of XP highway robbery she gets in disk 1 😅

Just used Additions or Dragoons addition or spell ^^

hidden wraith

Figured the speed one with 100 base speed from haschel would be a banger

Literally "fist" them to death

#

🤣

The only character i gave both speed equip are Albert and Kongol because they are sooo slow 😭😭😭

hidden wraith
magic fox
#

He got the speed penality in vanilla too ?

hidden wraith

I don't recall that, just a simple bandit ring or boots made em do pretty damn good

#

1sec

#

Why mod tyhe half penalty in if it was vanilla?

magic fox
hidden wraith
#

@iron bone Want me to create seperate save instances so it makes testing a live game easier? Just example like 1-2 maybe even 3 different saves for each disc for different playthrough points... could make it potentially easier to narrow in on issues for example but not limited to Lavitz and Albert, or Shana and Miranda?

magic fox
#

Another fan suggestion : The Bonus Mace for Meru make her a huge mage with auto magic regen ( even in dragoon ) and 2x mp, but dealing 0 with Physical strikes during seven turns is hard ( the only advantage i saw to that is to use Cool Boogie ) , perhaps it will be better to made her do magical damage on her physical strike ( with maybe the drawback to made all her addition deal 100% )

hidden wraith

The part that has me curious, is the angel scarf, and dragon shield, both state they LOWER defense of their respective half values, WHAT is the numerical or percentile value that is lowered?

And does that calculate BEFORE OR AFTER the half dmg is applied?

Heya @iron bone , found a retail bug in the equipment stats csv, angel robe causes weapon status effects to be increased by 40% when equipped together

#

Plus I’m thinking permanent status effects on weapons are a bit strong, maybe they should tuned down to 10%? Like Fear and poison

#

I would edit them myself, but my computer won’t let me for some reason, “try reinstalling” it says, grrr

hidden wraith
iron bone
#

I boosted all the status chances of those weapons. I don't think the status chance on angle robe will also boost the status chance on the weapons but I would have to take a look.

Hi everyone why is it when i edit monster _data my characters attacks drops to 0

sweet wyvern
#

Can you be more specific about what you edited?

vast adder
#

I edited the Monster_data on Dragoon modifier 3.5.5 in the hard mode mods folder for emulator

#

Using retroarch

sweet wyvern
#

What did you change in it?

vast adder
#

The monster experience

sweet wyvern
#

I'm thinking you may have made a mistake in it and the file is no longer being loaded properly?

vast adder
#

But the thing is the experience gained after battling is correct its only physical attacks don't hit magic attacks land as well as dragoon attacks

sweet wyvern
#

Sorry, I'm not sure then, I'm not very familiar with dramod

vast adder
#

Could it be that the experience is tied to the physical attacks 🤔

#

I did manage to get severed chains running but now the new issue is when Lavitz joins the party battling slows down but when dart is the only one it runs perfectly

iron bone
#

if it worked normally before on hard/hell mode presets before you changed something then you must have changed the wrong thing.

vast adder
#

@iron bone all i did was change the experience per monster by just doubling it

iron bone
#

dramod replaces everything when battles loads changing the numbers shouldn't affect that

vast adder
#

I think i am going to change one monster at a time and test it

#

Doesn't matter what monster you change this happens 🤔

Hello. I've been a long time lurker in the severed chains project. Finally had some time to download the main devbuild and start it. I then remembered there was a hell mode/hard mode, so figured I'd download that as well haha. Anyways, thank you all for the work that has been put into these. The update graphics are phenomenal. I do have a question on the dragmod. It seems Dragoon is available right at the beginning. Is that intentional?

#

Collecting SP from beginning etc. As well. Normal? Settings to change this so it's like the main game or am I going to want this on this soon haha

sweet wyvern
#

I can open both with no issues on mainline SC

#

So it must be an issue with Zy's build

the spell in general is getting removed?

with miranda, i got the white flash once, and then camera pan softlock twice

# iron bone Hell Mode is designed to have dragoons from the start. I think you can turn that...

I don't see where, but that's alright. Sorry, I stepped away from the game for a bit. Thanks for the response! One thing I have noticed is the enrage and elemental bomb keep turning on, when I cycle them off. Really makes the fight difficult with only dart, so far, as if under half health they can kill him in a single shot after enraged. I'm thinking this won't be as big of an issue once 2-3 heroes, but as a single, man it sure makes it so u have to stay above 75% health incase they use magic item.

iron bone
#

Hell Mode will have some options always turned on.

south snow
#

Ok. I imagine once lavitz comes it won't be so bad haha. Taught me to save a bunch already lol

I wasn't sure if that was a bug or not though, with it turning itself back on every battle

I don't even get to a battle, just the act of only putting her in the party does it, it will get that for ya in a sec

iron bone
#

Are you trying to do this while the game menu is open?

grizzled night
#

Its while im in the party selection menu, i remove everyone else from the party so its just shana, go to close the menu, and it crashes. try to boot from the crash save, crashes again.

#

i think this is it?

iron bone
#

send the save too

grizzled night
#

the crash save or the general save from right before doing so with her?

iron bone
#

crash save

grizzled night
iron bone
#

oh-

#

you can only have a single character party using the first slot.

#

it's why in dramenu it's has remove second/third slot

#

the world map reads the character in the first slot only which is why it is crashing.

grizzled night

ohhh ok

you can add shana back when she goes missing the second time

That is def good to know, shrine of shirley was a massive xp shafting

i should add it to the dramenu for hoax. you used to be able to in the emulator version.

also you can level sync the entire party for hell mode

if you do use the options in the dramenu you don't have to grind unless you get stuck somewhere

divine dragon cannon also has 100 speed i think

iron bone
#

most of ultimate boss will have their battle ai changed so i've been saving it for that

so you won't be able to cheese ultimate lloyd with talisman

i will probably add it to the turn rotation and make it a normal can't combat move

iron bone
sweet wyvern
#

One user on low end hardware is seeing almost a 70% increase in performance

hidden wraith
iron bone
#

im not changing icon positions wait for rb4 😭

hidden wraith
#

I can heal in dragoon form now hell yeah!

vast adder
#

@iron bone will give it a try quickly

iron bone
#

wait for bit i will merge the SC performance changes

vast adder
#

@iron bone thank you so much wil wait for the changes really exited now 😁

iron bone
#

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

#

java module
intellij open
visual studio code :)?
didn't change settings to use visual studio code

sweet wyvern
#

Fucking microsoft

iron bone
#

me using texture from PNG
git "there is no conflict with this"

#

???

iron bone
#

oh gurl i got work to do uh

iron bone
tired orbit
#

i also have everything decompiled but no lag idk

iron bone
#

@sweet wyvern did you remove texturefrompng because it wasn't used or a performance thing?

#

(it's needed for dramod and upscale project)

sweet wyvern
#

I removed it because it was unused, what were you using it for?

iron bone
#

dramod's extra ui and well the background and foreground objects for upscale project.

tired orbit
#

uh

#

I think all my mods use that 😭

sweet wyvern
#

Explain why you need VramTexture though

#

And not a regular texture

iron bone
#

because i am dumb and don't know another alternative.

#

uh for dramod i am building a large texture split by multiple PNG files so i am using the builder.

#

the turn order display is one texture with 8(16?) pngs attached to it.

#
    if(!Files.exists(path)) {
      path = Path.of("gfx", "ui", "turnorder", player ? "player" : "monster", "unknown.png");
    }

    final VramTextureSingle texture = (VramTextureSingle)VramTextureLoader.textureFromPng(path);
    this.turnOrderTexture.data(0, 120 * index, 240, 120, texture.getData());
  }```
#

you were also the one who told me not to use 8 different textures and build it in one 😆

sweet wyvern
#

Okay, you're using it to assemble the texture in memory?

#

Can you just store it as one file in the filesystem?

iron bone
#

Yes sir.

sweet wyvern
#

That's better for loading anyway

iron bone
#

which is better, building it in vram or loading 8 textures for each BENT

sweet wyvern
#

Probably best to do what you were doing

#

You can re-add it

iron bone
#

If Icarus was using it I bet Senerio was also using it.

#

All their mods might have just broke hood

sweet wyvern
#

@tired orbit what were you using it for?

#

@visual crane are you using VramTexture?

tired orbit
sweet wyvern
#

Okay

tired orbit
#

wdym okay 😭

iron bone
#

VramTextureSingle texture = (VramTextureSingle)VramTextureLoader.textureFromPng(path);

#

this one 😛

tired orbit
#

not Texture.png then

visual crane
tired orbit
#

alr

iron bone
#

@vast adder and anyone else wanting the performance build. extract and replace to your separated SC folder for dramod

vast adder
#

@iron bone must i use this on dramod version

iron bone
#

Yes

#

The 1.3 beta should be in another folder

vast adder
#

@iron bone will quickly test it with a fresh copy

#

no character moddels and when batteling everything is black

#

Also can't start new game as game instantly crashes

#

Only loading previous save game works but then you get the black screen glitches

iron bone
#

did you replace everything in that zip

vast adder
#

I did replace everything on a fresh copy

#

I see someone els also has the same problem

iron bone
#

i just saw playerhelp sounds like a base SC issue and monoxide will take a look when he is not busy

vast adder
#

But i can confirm that the fps was stable when i tried it even though it was missing models 😆

iron bone
#

i am getting the new campaign thhing but not the missing models in battles

vast adder
#

I will quickly show you what i mean one sec

sweet wyvern
#

Just pushed a fix for the crash

iron bone
sweet wyvern
#

Well that sure is something

#

Can you look in the console window near the top and see if there are any shader errors?

vast adder
#

sure thing give me one sec

#

only those 3 show up

#

i meant 4 sorry

sweet wyvern
#

@iron bone you need to distribute the new shaders

iron bone
#

I did

sweet wyvern
#

I don't see them in your perf test zip

iron bone
#

???

#

I will check in 20

sweet wyvern
#

@vast adder extract this into your gfx/shaders folder and overwrite the old ones

vast adder
#

@sweet wyvern thanks will do that now quickly

#

works perfectly going to test with quick boss battle

sweet wyvern
#

Running smoothly now?

vast adder
#

runs absolutely beautiful no laggin nothing and running at 1080p on my pc😁

iron bone
#

oh they were in my build folder but not the zip

vast adder
#

@iron bone @sweet wyvern thank you guys so much 😁

sweet wyvern
#

You're welcome

iron bone
vast adder
#

no sleep here i come 😆

hidden wraith
#

Errrr....

Just to check, I dont need to install any of the past 5-6 downloads for an update correct...?

sweet wyvern
#

Doesn't look like it

#

@iron bone can you try merging main.stacks into your code and see if there are any major issues?

iron bone
#

Do you want just me to test or a few people to test with the dramod update

sweet wyvern
#

Having a few people test would be good to make sure I didn't break any events

hidden wraith
sweet wyvern
#

Long story short I completely rewrote the inventory handling to support item stacks and durability (for mods, not changing the base game)

#

So everything that touches items

hidden wraith
#

So basically, just make sure my items work normally?

sweet wyvern
#

Exactly

#

I also added an option so you can enable item stacking in the base game

vast adder
#

why is it when you increase inventory size it resets to 32 after battling

sweet wyvern
#

A lot of options are locked in hell mode

sweet wyvern
hidden wraith
# sweet wyvern Exactly

Sure, dm me if you can the update, just tell me where to drop the file and what to override and I'll do that after I get home

Out for another 4 hours or so playing magic the gathering with the boys, got knocked out so checking discord lol

sweet wyvern
#

Sounds good

vast adder
#

@sweet wyvern so far items works like it should will keep you updated as i progress

hidden wraith
#

I only have one breezing wind btw

Have multiples of all the others to test properly later, gonna try emperor doel when I get back or tomorrow morning

fallen kettle
#

I’m at Lenus 2 now—I apologize for ever saying Lenus 1 was too difficult 🤣

iron bone
#

OPINION OFFICIALLY SWAPPED 106_LETSGOOOOO

#

I am waiting for Divine Dragon and Lloyd opinion reversals s7Shana

fallen kettle
#

I do feel like I have more agency of my strategy at this point though. Just requires some tweaking and testing.

nova mulch

I'm confused, me no see NPC

#

Quick question. After unlocking Miranda in Disc 3 I don't see her in my party. Is this a bug of some kind?

iron bone
#

Who?

#

did you click on the "don't click" option in dramenu?

hollow ridge
#

I don't see a "don't click" option

iron bone
#

you already clicked the don't click option that's why

hollow ridge
iron bone
#

you can undo it by using game state editor finding dart, changing it to that character, and setting that character's party flag to 0x3.

hollow ridge
#

Game state editor?

#

Bear with me I've finally understood most of the mod

#

But I haven't heard that one yet

#

How do I access that?

iron bone
#

F12

#

i renabled it if you have the performance test version

hollow ridge
#

Ah yes I remember this screen I would use it to reposition in case Dart gets stuck

#

Only time I would ever use it

#

Ok I'm in Gamestate editor now

iron bone
#

find dart, change it to whoever

#

the second box beside it change it to party flag

#

then the text box set it to 0x3

#

and hit set

hollow ridge
#

When you mean find Dart you mean?

#

above path index right?

iron bone
#

yeah

hollow ridge
#

Oh I see got it now thank you

#

Ok and how do you remove characters?

#

To add is 0x3

#

To remove is?

sweet wyvern
#

0

hollow ridge
#

Ok thanks

grizzled night
#

finally made it to Lenus pt 2, and was not expecting to get nuked immediately getting into the fight xD

hidden wraith
grizzled night
hidden wraith
#

🤣 🤣

#

Team im trying atm is shana and haschel with dart

grizzled night
#

That tsunami move did 1800+ across the board

hidden wraith
#

Sheeeeesh

grizzled night
#

I'm......not sure how I'm getting past this atm xD

hidden wraith
#

Also low key I think dragonhelm so early on breaks shanas balance

Literally all pluses for her and tips exactly what she needs

grizzled night
#

Yeah I probably should have farmed that

#

That's the +50% HP helm right?

hidden wraith
#

I only did one for her, I've seen teams do all 3

#

Yeah, but also gives physical protection and magic OFFENSE

grizzled night
#

Oh

hidden wraith
#

Exactly the three things shana likes

grizzled night
#

Yeahhhhh xD

#

And I can't go back at this point to get it either 💀

hidden wraith
#

Oof

#

Wait

#

I wonder how dart will do, I got em almost dragoon level 7 before doel with heat blade

So that 2x element damage wonder how it will work if she's swinging 1800

grizzled night
#

oh no

hidden wraith
grizzled night
#

Dart after getting hit by that move

hidden wraith
#

🤣

#

To be fair, he gonna blow his load too

grizzled night
#

Imma go try it with him real quick

hidden wraith
#

Main thing is the fire attack at lv 6, plus heat blade, plus dragoon field is what im curious on

grizzled night
#

Yeah, I only have him at lvl5 dragoon atm

#

I've been focusing more on additions lol

hidden wraith
#

Fair

Although do the elemental dragoon attacks at 6 STACK with the elemental swords?

grizzled night
#

I don't think they do (unless you toggle the setting for equips being applied in dragoon?)

hidden wraith
#

Hmm

Testing is required! When I get out of this castle lol

grizzled night
#

Solitary ring is....weird xD

iron bone
#

the elemental infusion should work I hope. i forgot i haven't tested it in ages.

hidden wraith
#

Uhhhh used Shana's light attack at dragoon level 6 and this happened, music still going in background but game broke

#

These are last game files before i had to ALTF4

vast adder
#

happend when lavitz transformed as a dragoon

iron bone
#

Are you using long or short dragoon animations? Is this error repeatable?

vast adder
#

Long transformations going to see if it happens again now

sweet wyvern
iron bone
#

I don't think me adding a new Dragoon Spell would cause that.

iron bone
sweet wyvern
#

Our line numbers don't match up but I assume it's this line since it's the only one doing division (modulo)

iron bone
#

i tried long and short and it didn't happen but i am on a new branch now

sweet wyvern
#

h either comes from a C container or script

#

Don't see how it could be the C container part since those files don't change

iron bone
#

🧐

vast adder
#

loaded an early save and tried it again didn't happen now. Happened at the cave guardian boss fight

sweet wyvern
#

That rect is loaded from the deff system

#

If you shuffled around the indices that would cause it

vast adder
#

what is the map code for the cave with the guardian

iron bone
#

the only deff i touched was the snek's spit attack so if anything would have messed up it would be something there

sweet wyvern
#

Very suspicious that that is the fight she got the crash in eh?

vast adder
#

when trying to warp to cave room before boss battle

tired orbit
iron bone
#

map 52?

vast adder
#

it did work but something else happened it warped me to after the boss fight 🤔

#

tried to warp to map 51 game crashes

iron bone
#

i can only assume when the game crashes in the middle of the boss fight the story flags are changed

#

best to load a save before the crash

vast adder
#

just loaded one now will see if it happens again

sweet wyvern
#

@iron bone what did you change in the deff?

iron bone
#

the attack % that's it.

sweet wyvern
#

I wonder if it was a recomp issue

#

Any suspicious looking tables?

iron bone
#

literally just 0x64 to 0x7D

sweet wyvern
#

Doesn't mean there weren't table entries that didn't get missed by the decompiler heuristics

iron bone
#

wait the script is only changed for the ultimate boss version

#

so that can't be it

sweet wyvern
iron bone
#

No

hollow ridge
#

Quick question. I'm trying to use the Queen Fury to get back to Furni and it keeps circling back to Fueno like it's blocking my way back. Do I need to use Gamestate editor for that as well?

iron bone
#

world map analog code is jank use the normal dpad

hollow ridge
#

Interesting. Thanks.

vast adder
#

Just transformed with Lavitz against boss no crash 🤔

#

Could it be because he was about to die mabye as he had 1 hit left before he was going to die

tired orbit
#

rc 🫠

sweet wyvern
#

@tired orbit I know there is some kind of race condition on game loading but it might just be from the in-game load menu

#

If you load a game at high game speed it can partially load

#

Like it can replace your gamestate but not actually bring you to the right map

#

Stuff like that

tired orbit
#

lavitz deff has no texture animation call

#

its engine

sweet wyvern
#

Logging isn't good enough for script crashes that don't happen as the result of a script call

#

This was from the scripted object ticker

#

But it doesn't tell us which object

#

I need to improve that

hidden wraith
sweet wyvern
#

@iron bone I improved error logging for script ticker/renderer crashes, sync main when you can

vast adder
#

No crash this time everything worked perfectly tried the exact same approach as before but this time it didn't happen

sweet wyvern
#

Isn't game dev great 😛

vast adder
#

Don't understand why it happened maybe it wanted Lavitz to die before Lloyd could get to him 😂

sweet wyvern
#

Hell mode fights took too long and Melbu remade the world

iron bone
#

timed battles in hell mode great idea!

vast adder
#

He was like time to kill that troublesome Lavitz Lloyd is taking to long

iron bone
hidden wraith
#

Ahh kk

sweet wyvern
#

Going outside to work on the house, ping me if y'all figure anything out

nova mulch
#

ok, for solo run, ghost commander is definitely going to be the biggest roadblock

#

and not for the obvious reason of stun locking

#

well i mean, that TOO

nova mulch
#

Guess I will find out what the fake solitary ring does vs Lenus 2 here in a bit

#

hmmmmmmm, either this fish is SUPER evasive, or something fishy going on...

#

super evasive/bad luck, go it

iron bone
#

if there was a second ring slot i would add accuracy rings

#

next update will have more equip and interesting item options 👀

sweet wyvern
#

I plan to allow mods to add more equip slots in the future

hidden wraith
#

Uhhhh I think darts dragoon broke

Dude does like 200-300 against most trash mobs with dragoon additions

Did the fight where I lose my dragoon, he was hitting for over 1200 on Mappi, but 1500 on the two trash mobs with em

Scaling caught me completely off guard lol

#

Had heat blade equipped and did special for the field, not sure if that would affect but just mentioning

iron bone
nova mulch
#

Lenus 2 is fun

#

with solo meru

#

super easy fight, just tedious

#

but not like, doel tedious

#

more like, they are damage sponges, and I would have to fuck up massively to actually lose

#

can anyone spot the Lenus in this fight?

#

its concerning how often the dragon is counter attacking

#

I should probably have looked up if it counters every single attack
