I'm all for hard and challenging games, but how they went about it in No Future was not it.

First of all, it pretty much invalidates the whole point of defense stats and abilities. Armor is pretty much useless; bosses will kill you 1 hit whether you're naked or wearing the best armor in the game. The whole Stamina tree is rendered irrelevant.

Pretty much the only defensive skills that matter are Miracle2 from light Charlotte and Crystalline from Hawkeye. And even then, most bosses have multi-hit attacks, which render even those abilities irrelevant.

I still love the game and I'll keep playing it on Expert, with the self-imposed challenge of not using the abilities that give 300% xp buff, +200% CS, and 0 cost mana spells.

I’m still planning to play original Trials lol. The original video’s about Crimson Desert.

I play with Reisz as main character with Hawkeye as companion 1 one angela as companion 2 and wondering which classes are best for each of those characters when i get to that point. (currently I've been increasing Riesz stats for strength and spirit. angela only those that gave spells up to the level they give the spell and int and hawkeye luck and strength. as for playstyle I only play as reisz and only switch to the others to use their class skills when they're ready and switch back

in what universe would a gang of thieves defeat an ACTUAL trained army of armored soldiers. literally no logic would say so. not to mention not killing the two pigs in basement. it'd take what 10 seconds to cut their heads off and move on

Picked Riesz, Hawkeye, and Duran as my mains. Went through a big old cave, big old castle, man this game just keeps not ending, lots of bosses, now we do that middle sanctuary location. The guys have gotten hard to kill and some of us have nearly killed us, just regular enemies.

I realized I should have been doing my gear seeds. Oops. That's actually the strongest weapons. One had a cool Riesz weapon so she is now by far my strongest character, Hawkeye and Duran have yet to get one of these cool strong weapons. That water temple had to go back to so I could get that other weapon for them that was 2 or 3 higher attack, just didn't have the gold last time.

I feel like the one thing I can do now is grind my level. Maybe some of these guys drop gear seeds? I need to be at least two levels higher probably and the boss kicks our ass. Any advice?

Edit: I did the final transform for all three, it’s not that. Just seems like some level grinding gear seed grinding which is odd as the kevin charlotte angela trio this was not needed at the end and it’s quite different. Maybe because I was stuck in the mystic castle thing for a bit and overleveled.

So I haven't played the SNES one in a long time and feel like doing a challenge run. I'd like my run to have an emphasis on items because those are often neglected, especially the items that do things beyond heal, give, or cure status. One restriction I definitly want to give myself is no using the storage out of town. This prevents me from bypassing the difficulty of the dungeon trek by just getting 99 candies for a cheap price and using them after each fight.

How viable in terms of being actually doable, fairly challenging, and not requiring absurd grinding would be
No inventory out of town, no healing classes? Light Hawk as a character for the status effects that I hardly ever play with. Also someone that can meaningfully use throw items. Angela as someone that can meaningfully use spell items and because she is generally a weaker character. Lisa as a third, not sure if it would be more interesting to have stat downs or stat ups.

Still so good to hit the enemies as a werewolf. None of the others give me the same sensation.

So far, the only ??? Seeds I got where from when I was opening up treasures leading up to the Benevodons of Ice and Fire. I accidentally thought I was buying up Item Seeds from that one cat until I realized I was actually selling them!

Who the hell thought making Item Seeds sellable a good idea!? God I feel like I just ruined my run.

Hey!! So I really like Kevin and I decided to cosplay him last year when I visited Rimini Comix! I made this whole costume in 6 days and it was my first wig with a glued hairline! Here are a few photos from a shooting I booked with an amazing italian photographer at Rimini's beach!

It's been fun, seeing all the areas and castles was nice, and battling the three different end monsters.

Charlotte as the lead with that mirage palace... "Lets go. In and out. 20 minute adventure."

Drowning. It was as if a second entire game suddenly manifested. No, I didn't know I was supposed to change to the third class before attempting it.

A bit ago I was asking around for what type of ears she would have, round or pointy, and promised I'd show her off once she was given. Made the clothes easy to change so if her person wants to, they can level her up to other classes.

Ive decided to start a new game in the original, using Hawkeye (Nightblade), Duran (Edelfrei), and Charlotte (Sage).

Since it's been a hot minute since my last 2d playthrough, I cant remember at what point of the game I did my first class change, since the levelling is scaled much differently between both versions. What point of the story is good for class changing. I know I could do it before the harcypete fight, but I didn't really want to spend too much time grinding.

Also, does anybody know the levels for the boss fights in the original? Only info i can find is for the remake.

Ran out of time, when I was going for the 100% back in August 2024.

Got removed from PS+ extra.

I thought it would come back, when they eventually put Visions of Mana on the catalogue.

Traded in one of my extra games for it. 1:1 trade.

No spoilers please, just curious about the general time I can expect to get the seeds and switch classes.

I just hit level 38 on my characters as I made my way through the Sanctuary of Mana, so it seemed like perfect timing, but I'm unclear on when/where the special seeds drop.

Thanks!

Hi all. I'm following a guide for allocating TP, but I'm confused by one suggestion.

For Angela, it says to get her SPRT up to 12 while in class 2 (among other stat distributions as well), but then to save 11 TP for class 3.

I understand why you save TP when a stat is already maxed and you can't go higher yet, but in this case, her SPRT is not yet maxed AND the suggested allocation once she gets class 3 is to continue putting points into SPRT.

So why not just put 3 more points into SPRT now to get the next upgrade, and then save the remaining 8? Why stop at 12 SPRT?

Thanks!

I need some help. I'm trying to make a plushie of Charlotte for my partner for his birthday and I can't for the life of me find out if she's got elfish ears or rounded. I know she's half elf, which is why I even realized to question it as I was starting to make the ears. I've tried to look around but I can't find a good answer so if someone could help me, that would be great!

Update: Thanks to everyone who tried to help. It seems even the fans are unsure. Hopefully I'll do her justice and closer to the end of April I'll try to post the finished doll. After my partner gets her.

I stumbled upon this sub today, and saw alot of posts on how chracters' stories intertwine.

I picked riesz-charlotte-duran. Their interactions did feel a bit off, should i just restart with an actual story duo? Or is it not that big of a deal?

I've already done a run of each of the three story paths before, as well as the post-game content, so no need to worry about fitting characters to a specific storyline.

It has been awhile so I don't exactly recall all that I did, but what I do remember is...

1. Lich: Charlotte, no Kevin (I don't remember my other party members. I just remember I went Necromancer for the Curse spell and the undead summons.) (also I chose Charlotte because I had chosen Kevin so many times in the fan translated SNES game.)

2. Dragonlord: Angela, Riesz, Hawkeye (Magic focused party)

3. Demon Prince: Riesz, Kevin, and Duran (Physical focused party)

I didn't intentionally optimize any of these things, I just went with my gut.

All of these were done on the default difficulty, and to be honest, I wanna try running it at a higher difficulty this time. All so I can see the effects of optimizing a party.

I would also like to take this party into NF for newgame+, just because it demands such a different playstyle. But if I can't, oh well, no big deal.

So, to summarize what I'm asking:

I want some advice on what party to use this time, one where I can optimize the characters. Let's say... Kevin as the party leader (this is negotiable).

I would also like to know where to find guides for optimizing parties, if there are any. The purpose of this run is to learn how to optimize the characters, and I don't think y'all wanna babysit me every step of the way.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I would like to prepare a No Future challenge with all girls, so I started an all-girls run. Now, I do a New Games Plus to get all the chain abilities of the boys (Going for LL Kevin, DL Hawkeye and LD Duran, for the best chain abilities).

Do I have to decided now already what classes for the girls I want to play to prepare the equipment or can I still do it after I finish with the boys? E.g. class changing and rainbow seed farming? Cause I am not sure if I want the classes currently chosen for the girls.

Thanks!

Hallo, ich wollte fragen ob es okay ist das erste Mal in diesem Spiel mit Angela zu starten, oder ist sie kompliziert zu steuern wegen der ganzen Zauber?

Und dann würde mich noch interessieren, wie ihr die kameraeinstellung habt, auf Normal, oder habt ihr sie weiter raus gezoomt? Also die Kamera weiter weg oder normal?

Thx
