Gameplay FAQ / Walkthrough 1.12

[felixsimon]

i've got a question: when i fight last battle (Shun) i cant find another way to win except to sacrifice 2 subspirits so that he wont use foton ray anymore... will the death of some subspirits affect ending in any way?

[Volandum]

I don't think so, and they'll be back in shape for the next game.

[Phlebas]

Not the specific ending, but... yeah, the dead stay dead, so you won't see those characters' epilogue scenes.

For those who care, this is a step-by-step walkthrough for defeating Kyouko and Kouin (first playthrough) in Mission 14: Defend Ransa.

Get into this position at the start of Turn 13:

General Strategy: Use 2 turns to get rid of Trusscade's uses. Deplete Kouin's HP using the one remaining turn.

Turn 13: Your spirits should be at least at the levels below. I built a lab and 3 ether converters plus about 4-5 training facilities, so it should not be hard to get these levels. I also assume you didn't mess up and pass on any good skills.

Important things to have:

-Esperia with 2 uses of Accurate Block V left and decent HP.
-Selia with 1 use of Heaven's Sword I left.
-Nanaru with 2 uses of Flame Shower left.
-Nelie with 3 uses of Impulse Blow II left.
-Aselia with 2 uses of Fury I left.

Attack with Nelie (Impulse Blow II), Nimnthor (Accurate Block IV), and Nanaru (Flame Shower). Kyouko should have 3826 HP left and the other two spirits should fall.

Next, attack with Selia (Fury I), Halion (Accurate Block II), and Himika (Fireball I). Kyouko should have 1592 HP left.

Finish off Kyouko with Aselia (Impulse Blow II), Helion (any), Yuuto (Passion I). End your turn.

Turn 14: First, switch Nimnthor and Esperia. Advance your Selia/Halion/Himika, Nelie/Esperia/Nanaru, and Shiah/Nimnthor/Orpha teams so all four of your teams are at the same spot.

Attack Kouin's team with Aselia (Fury I), Yuuto (Violent Block IV), Helion (Terror I). Kouin's defender should fall. (Trusscade 6 -> 5)

Kouin will now attack. Defend with Nelie (any), Esperia (Accurate Block V), Nanaru (Flame Shower). Kouin's attacker should fall. (Trusscade 5 -> 4)

Turn 15: The position below should be accurate:

Note that now you don't need to worry about who is at the defender spot. For Turn 15, just attack with all four teams not aiming to deal damage but instead exhausting Trusscade. I attacked with Selia's Fury I, Helion's Shrouded Sword I, Nelie's Leap Attack I, and Shiah's Leap Attack I. (Trusscade 4 -> 0)

Turn 16: This is the last turn that Kouin will stay so you have 4 chances at beating Kouin, with his Trusscade exhausted. Now you have a bit of leeway depending on what uses you have left, but here's how to do it:

Selia (Heaven's Sword I), <any defender>, Yuuto (Passion I)
Aselia (Fury I), <any defender>, Helion (Iron Maiden I)
Himika (Triple Swing I), <any defender>, <any supporter>

If you still have Flame Shower from Nanaru/Orpha at your disposal, then have fun.

Notes: I believe that this can be delayed by 1-2 turns, but I am not sure. That is, if you start at Turn 15 and finish at Turn 18, you should be fine. Can someone verify?

I really need help on Mission 3: Destroy the Ancient Dragon Sadgaraham

I used every arrangement I could think of, yet I can't beat him at all! I always get close but he then kills Esperia because her HP is already low from all his attacks.

[persocom01]

I think you're supposed to use yuuto as defender. Esperia can be support to heal him and aselia can be attacker. It's possible to kill him without healing though.

[Phlebas]

It's possible to get stuck there if you've made the mistake of leveling Orpha several times at that point, though. If you haven't, it's just a matter of experimenting.

[solopy567]

Orpha is only level 1

Yuuto is level 3
Esperia is level 7
Aselia is level 5


Unless this is not high enough, I dont see why I cant win...

When I put Yuuto as support and Esperia as Defender, she is killed immediately, but when Orpha is support, it takes him three turns to kill her.
When I bring his HP down to around 900, he cancels my attack support phase. The lowest I've managed to bring him down to is 88 HP but then he won easily because they had extremely low health at that point.

[lunarium]

Make your priority for leveling in beginning: Yuuto > Aselia > Esperia. Dont touch Orpha at all in normal mode unless you know what you are doing.
I suggest you do mission 3 again and level Yuuto up in base, while Esperia + Aselia defend/leveling up at the choke, and Orpha run to dragon cave. You should win if Yuuto can defend well against dragon attack/Aselia can do enough damage.

Another question about mission 14

I'm definitely heading down the Aselia route. I picked all the choices that raise love with Aselia using the walkthrough...

Then why do I get the Uruka event???? I'm aiming for Aselia...And I didn't pick any choices that raise love with Uruka..What's going on here?
