    another really helpful tip for the dungeon is to abuse the infinitely spawning enemies from the crystals. Idk if it works on Hard, but you can kill them with one hit without entering battle, and each kill restores the parties SP a little bit (if you have the mage equipped). Every time you find a crystal, it's basically a free full SP restore.

    • @UnGeekPH
      @UnGeekPH  2 месяца назад +42

      That's actually a good tip too! But I discovered that you can replicate this by just clearing out the whole map, go back to Akademeia using a safe room or More's Cat, then instantly go back. All enemies would have respawned.

    • @UnGeekPH
      @UnGeekPH  2 месяца назад +24

      Oh and yes, can confirm that, even on hard, if you're stronger than the enemy, you can kill them just with overworld combat.

    A tip not mentioned here is to save before appraising since most items when appraised will give you a random item from a list of items and how good the items are differ a lot. For instance while appraising the Rusted Longarm it can turn into a lot of different things from testing it could turn into Iron lance, Silver Lance, Cooling Staff, Iron Greatsword, Silver Claymore. Not sure if there are more but Silver Lance, Cooling Staff and Silver Claymore are all much better then the Iron Lance/Greatsword, the silver versions are a direct upgrade from Iron and the cooling staff is a great staff for mages that boosts ice dmg and each time you appraise the reward is random so you can abuse saving and loading to get the item you want from an appraisal.

    For MP management, just put mage on the protagonist. It gives 1 MP per kill or stun on the overworld. when i was on the mines (the one for the dragon), I got to the dragon with almost full MP, and if you need more, just kill a bunch of low level enemies.

    Another point about First Aid:
    use it in the menu over the auto recovery function. I found auto spent more MP then was often necessary, it would cast the other heal spells over FA even if the character would’ve been fully healed via FA.
    TLDR: Use auto only when you are very low on HP, use FA manually if not.

      The only tip you really need to beat anything in one day is that you can infinity farm MP with mage equipped. Sure it might take some time but considering you can enter a load screen(safe room etc) and most easy enemies reset, you are able too with a bit of patience, restore all of your MP running around and killing enemies in the over world. Every enemy killed in the over world restore 1 mp to every party member. I'd rather save every piece of MP item for those few times you will struggle to cheese a dungeon. The 2nd tip is to pretty much inverse the persona mindset, go do as many quests as you can even if they take up time, buy the best gear possible and also work on your friendships if possible. Before i even entered the cathedral i exhausted everything remotely useful, even the quests, the reason for this is fairly simple until the very last bits of the game most side content will be below the level of the final dungeon(at least the final parts).

  • @vincesergi7339
    @vincesergi7339 2 месяца назад +12

    At 2:53 he says the Ignitors quest is optional, but i think its a great opportunity to gain alot of gold at the early stage of the game. Get your Wisdom to Lvl 2 by sitting on the bench on Sunlumeo Street.
    Go through the dungeon, make sure to buy quite a bit of healing potions. Clear the dungeon, the final fight against the Minotaur i used two Knights and one warrior. Spam the synthesis skill Thrust l, its a weak point, just use your warrior to spam healing potions and you'll win. It may take you a couple of tries, but you'll make it.
    You'll unlock the Merchant class for the Cathedral. Alot of enemies are low-level dogs and you can kill them over and over for alot of money. I think i walked out of the dungeon with over a 100 grand.

I tried not to overdo it too much though cuz I also wanted to not be too overleveled hahah

    Guys I’m new, help me here. What is good with my main character for Archytypes? Cause I’m currently using him as a healer… also with the stats. Which one should you recommend me focusing on?
    Help me here, much appreciated guys 🙏🏼

      For me, I went with balanced STR and MAG with mag ahead by 3-4 points. This allows me the flexibility to switch him to either magic or physical attacks. Since your initial party mates are Physical types, I mostly put my protag on mage duty so Seeker, Mage, and Healer initially

    • @UnGeekPH
      @UnGeekPH  2 месяца назад +1

      Honestly, not really. It's just really for people who want that satisfying balance of difficulty while playing.
      I'm a bit of a completionist so when I play on Normal difficulty, I usually start getting too overpowered really early and combat becomes a bit dull. So Hard (especially on ATLUS games) kinda hits that nice balance.

    First Atlus game and I have no idea how the calendar system works.

    • @UnGeekPH
      @UnGeekPH  2 месяца назад +1

      This game's a really good one to enter the ATLUS rpgs. haha So Calendar system just means that you have a deadline to clear a specific dungeon or to do certain quests or its game over.
      TLDR, in a day, you can usually do only 2 things - 1 during the day, 1 during the night and these can range from doing side quests, raising a bond with one of your followers, or raising one of your stats. Dungeons are basically things you can enter and return to over multiple days but you wanna do them in as short a time as possible because, each day you're in the dungeon is a day you could have used for other activities.
      If that's too much of an explanation, the game by itself does a good job of explaining the system. Hope you enjoy your first ATLUS RPG!

      Save Rooms (called Magla Hollows in game) and the little Phantom cat save points let you return to the entrance, but you can also use Ariadne's Thread from your item menu, which also let's you leave the dungeon. I think Gallica gives you one in the first dungeon, and then you either get more from enemy drops or from some merchants

  • @Neonmirrorblack
    @Neonmirrorblack 22 дня назад +1

    Dragon seems 100% impossible when you first encounter it on Hard difficulty. It literally takes away half of the health of a Warrior in a single hit.
    Also, this keeps getting parroted, but you don't have to do the Healer 10 quest to unlock the ability to change Archtypes from the main menu.
    I don't know the exact trigger but I got it after beating Zorba and switching Hulk from a Knight to a Brawler. Seems like you only have to switch one of your companions out of their default archetypes at some point. Or it's just given to you for free after beating Zorba. I never leveled up the Healer at all.
    But now that I know it actually unlocks another customization slot...I probably should. 😄
    I like your advice on how to "cheat" with rewind too. I've actually been doing that on my own to check weaknesses and to fish for crits. 😂

    • @UnGeekPH
      @UnGeekPH  22 дня назад

      I promise you, Dragon is 100% doable on hard :) But it IS quite daunting. Timely guards can help and if its super impossible, you may have to farm a bit from the earlier mine mobs.
      So here's the thing about the ability to change archetypes without Healer 10 -> you can via the EQUIP tab but this doesnt allow you to change much of anything else. So Inherited skills will be the one most affected with this as its a huge convenience.
      Hahaha Glad you liked the REWIND tip. It's not even as game breaking as some may say but it definitely helps you get a proper start to a fight. :)

    • @UnGeekPH
      @UnGeekPH  2 месяца назад

      My general rule with dungeons is that I have to kill everything at least once. So I rarely skip mobs and, at times, I do some light farming but not too much.
      So Day 1 iirc, I got as high as the floor right before the "painting event" (iykyk XD) where I was pretty much out of MP and I just didnt feel like grinding too much with the Mage MP recovery.
      Day 2 was all the rest.
      Aside from that, generally I try not to use too much MP to really extend my runs.
      Hope that helps!

    I kinda don’t like how you have to constantly change archetypes to get good skills/abilities. For example, using the mage class just to be able to get mp back in dungeons.
    I would much rather have party members introduced that have set roles, and you can swap out whenever and that’s it. The archetype system is meh.
