Read the description for a quick overview of Alfyn. Primrose video is next. Maybe not tomorrow but soon. Make sure to subscribe for more Octopath Traveler.
i don't have an overwhelming preference for what language i play in but for alfyn in particular i would much rather the japanese voice. especially since in english he says corny shit like "cool off!" and "you're in for a shock!"
So i accidently fked up and overwrote the save file in which i saved before the final fight. :( No more dragonborne, lol. As soon as i overwrote it i went into a state of depression.
there are four ways to get someone to 1 hp. losing a challenge/provoke (olberic/hannit only), using "hang tough" support skill, using the "prevents instant death" accessory, or using "revive" with no boost.
I played this game a year ago and i arrived to the point where all my characters are level 90+, there isn't really much to do in the game once your damage is 99,999. You're basically unbeatable, you even have the necklace to turn off all encounters as you walk. I wish they add a little bit of sidequests after the main story, like maybe quests that would be connected to the next sequel. After the battle with the Dark God, the game felt empty instantly for me since I collected every single best equipment there is, done every little quest, and caught that big rare cat with H'aanit. :/
I love the channel, have been spam watching these videos and the quality is very high! In your opinion what is the best late game staff for elemental damage dps. I want to do a Cyrus with sorcerer build. Thanks!
I believe Battle Tested staff is the strongest elemental attack. However, you shouldn't really need it on Cyrus since it's easy to get cyrus to max elem. atk without it. I just use the Knowledgeable staff on cyrus or maybe the one that does additional ice damage. So long as you get 999 elem. atk, then it doesn't really matter and you can give your best staff to someone who needs it. My Cyrus doesn't even need the elemental augmentation accessories because his elem. atk is already maxed. So you can try different combinations between staff, accessories, and the stat boost nuts to see what works best for you.
tykejack oh so the additional element damage weapons increase the damage beyond the 999 cap? Interesting I assumed max element was the highest it could go no matter what. Do support skills that boost element damage boost him beyond his max at all?
No, I was literally explaining that it caps at 999. So with armor and accessories, if you're at 800 elem. atk, then there is no reason to use a staff with 399 elemental attack on it because half of that stat boost will be wasted since it will only boost you to 999. I was saying it's better to give your best staff to a weaker character who'll be able to use the entire 399 buff from the weapon since all stats max cap at 999. However, it's just a matter of what you want to combine. You can combine accessories, armor, stat nuts, and weapons to boost your character. Keep in mind, the buff from your weapon will only display on the stat sheet while you have it selected. That's when it will show in blue instead of the default white color. So long as that blue number is 999, then you have max elemental damage. So I was explaining that how I could get Cyrus to that 999 without using the Battle Tested Staff or the Elemental Augmentations, so it's better to use those items on another character. However, it all depends on how you want to built I personally recommend saving stat nuts until the end because once you spend them, you can't undo it unless you reload a previous save file.
We couldn't even see the rest of Alfyn's equipment cus the description was blocking it! I assume it was all for increasing Speed? Would have been nice to be able to see it.... Would really love to know how you max out his Speed! As usual, you aren't showing very important information!
How important are nuts in this game for stat gains to reach these levels of damage? I've been kinda hoarding them, while only using Fortifying Nuts on H'aanit and Olberic and Nourishing Nuts for Cyrus. I might give the Light Nuts for +spd Alfyn. So far it seems equipment and skills are more important.
I like to use the thief sub job on him. I’m already boosting his speed so he can act first for concoct, so why not just have him with thief for the divine skill?
Olberic : Alright I got this I'm gonna tear these ennemies apa.... Alfyn : Feel the might of my axe !!! *procceed to kil all ennemies in one hit* Olberic : HEY !!! Who the hell are you ? Alfyn : I'm a healer. Olberic : How is that healing ? Alfyn : Yeah I heal by killing everything before they killed anyone. Olberic : -_-
Currently looking for a way to get him to 1HP the easiest way around. (Since he restores HP whenever he levels) This is beast leveling, and I'd really like to make use of this darn good guide.
only problem is when leveling him up. It fills his HP back to full. But it looks like that's the only way to do it. Hope there's an equipment that let's the character stay to 1HP all the time even after leveling.
That fat cait got fuckedddd His speed must be impressive to hit it, unless last stand has a higher hit rate?? I know this game is years old but I've stumbled upon your octopath videos so much that I gotta sub you
if alvin is that strong, why not use him in party for exp grind, killing all the mob with 1 hit would be much faster than using Bewildering Grace, no? for that I would just need to maximize fighter and apotecary skills right?
How do you get those numbers with other abilities than last stand? Its not like Apothecary is anything special when it comes to offensive stats. Warrior, Theif and hunter are all better.
He uses all of his Stat Nuts to boost them for whatever he needs. He mentioned this in one of the comments on his OP Olberic video. With the right Nuts, you can make anyone a mage, warrior, thief, whatever. Keep in mind that nuts give you an increase on your base stats, so they work better with some characters over others. However, at the end of the day, you can just boost the hell out of one character if you really want to. I personally saved all my nuts for the end, right before the last secret boss, so I can use them on different characters and try different builds or setups to test on the final gauntlet.
Why make so many videos about each character if you just gonna show off fortitude, don't you have another build that can do high amount of damage without using fortitude
Cavin Anderson Only applies to Olberic and H'aanit. If you want to do this on someone else, you let them die, then use the cleric's revive skill: this gives them 1 hp to put them on their feet, and nothing more.
I just hate how Last Stand requires you to be low on health to be useful. That kinda goes against the whole "apothecary" thing. While everyone else is able to plow through enemies, he can't unless he's already almost dead.
Flareboxx It is still considerable damage. Especially in the early game, I regularly use it at full health, and it still does nearly as much damage as all my other AoE attacks. Sometimes more.
wanna do even more dmg? Replace Physical Prowess with Stronger Strikes and Just buff his ATK in-battle and lower the enemies' DEF. if the enemy is weak against axes hooooooooo boy. goodbye

Hey, just wanna point out, that you wrote "Diving skill" instead of "Divine Skill" in the description^^
LOL, thanks man. Diving skills for the win.
Alfyn:"I'm actually a healer." *PROCEEDS TO GENERATE NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS WITH SINGLE AXE SWING*
Escanor of the 7 deadly sins.
"If there is no enemy my team won't take any damage!"
Hence why you *never* screw with a healer
I want to see someone solo the game with alfyn
Alfyn’s English voice: pure cinnamon roll
Alfyn’s Japanese voice: sounds like a mad man
Dragonexus Claudio English is better considering what the character is supposed to be.
I prefer Japanese version because of his mad voice during battles, such a huge contrast
Alfyn’s Japanese voice: sounds like he's about to to SHINING FINGER
i don't have an overwhelming preference for what language i play in but for alfyn in particular i would much rather the japanese voice. especially since in english he says corny shit like "cool off!" and "you're in for a shock!"
Japanese voices are so much epic than the english ones.
God bless whoever decide to add suprassing power.
"Alfyn is a healer, right?"
"Well, he also heals."
My buddy "Alfyn is a healer right?"
Me, while my Apothecary/Cleric Alf Last Stands for 9999 damage. "Yes"
GiantEnemyMudcrabz Really you can make anyone anything in this game.
Yes, Alfyn is a healer.
But Therion can be too.
And Alfyn can be a nuclear bomb.
Now this is the peak performance medicine man
You're my Go-To when it comes to OctoStuff. Thanks, man!
Justine Jan Angeles Same. Always come here for helpful/hilarious Octopath content.
Someone who appreciates Alfyn as much as I do, my warrior subclass Alfyn is a Greek god compared to every other character 😂
Alfyn is best boi
Alfyn in terms Of If you had to play the game with 1 character, Is definitely the strongest.
Alfyn is one of my favourites and helped me in a lot of difficult bosses!
"i know i'm a healer, but.."
1:52 Every time. 😂
Advancer 64 lol, everyone becomes dragonborne
OhRichard 😂
So i accidently fked up and overwrote the save file in which i saved before the final fight. :(
No more dragonborne, lol.
As soon as i overwrote it i went into a state of depression.
OhRichard Happens to all of us. Who hasn't become Dragonborne yet, though? :'v
OhRichard dragonborn
Love the vids! Would love to see an OP Therion vid soon :)
could you just run cover on Olberic so he doesn't get hit seeing Alfyn would be the primary damage dealer anyway?
Alfyn axes everything.
Alfyn was my first pick, and he basically carried me through the game.
Whitout question, my favourite character is Alfyn.
alfyn.... "im sorry we have to amputate that arm its the only way"
patient: "how..
how much hp do you have ... i dont want to die
The move amputate isn't scaled on hp
@Doors067 Nice! 😂😂😂
this might sound stupid but how can you get Alfyn down to 1hp ?
my guess is let him die then use cleric revive skill which will leave him with 1 hp
Or you can use the theif skill
H'aanit mercy strike?
there are four ways to get someone to 1 hp. losing a challenge/provoke (olberic/hannit only), using "hang tough" support skill, using the "prevents instant death" accessory, or using "revive" with no boost.
Is this the work of an enemy (last) stando

this is so goddamn strong.
Olberic, Primrose, Tressa, Alfyn. Thats also my main party!!!
Alfyn was my main. Best choice ever, also, best guy.
Also Alflyn is an expert with the hunter skill. He's amsome with the bow and arrows!
alfyns default class is good but the boosts from dancer 8speed) and warrior (attack) benefit him alot
for some ridiculous reason, whenever I use Brands Thunder, 50% of the time, IT FRIGGEN MISSES!!!
Uh-oh, someone is using Werner's Sword!
Are you using Werner's Sword?
Oh man. He’s the beast.
We stan by Last Stand

Awesome video OhRichard! Can you do a video of all secret job locations? And if you have time, all subjobs? Awesome content!
For a sec I thought you were gonna one shot Redeye or something at the end lol
We couldn't even see the rest of Alfyn's equipment cus the description was blocking it! I assume it was all for increasing Speed? Would have been nice to be able to see it.... Would really love to know how you max out his Speed!
As usual, you aren't showing very important information!
But how well will this work or be on galdera :( I need to know XD
Same here honestly. Galdera has been this brick wall for me. If my apocathery can just waltz in and do this level of damage, that'll help a lot.
How important are nuts in this game for stat gains to reach these levels of damage? I've been kinda hoarding them, while only using Fortifying Nuts on H'aanit and Olberic and Nourishing Nuts for Cyrus. I might give the Light Nuts for +spd Alfyn.

alfyn best boi
I like to use the thief sub job on him. I’m already boosting his speed so he can act first for concoct, so why not just have him with thief for the divine skill?
Olberic : Alright I got this I'm gonna tear these ennemies apa....
Alfyn : Feel the might of my axe !!!
*procceed to kil all ennemies in one hit*
Olberic : HEY !!! Who the hell are you ?
Alfyn : I'm a healer.
Olberic : How is that healing ?
Alfyn : Yeah I heal by killing everything before they killed anyone.
Olberic : -_-
alfyn as Warmaster is like im healer with 6 pack
Currently looking for a way to get him to 1HP the easiest way around. (Since he restores HP whenever he levels) This is beast leveling, and I'd really like to make use of this darn good guide.
Let him fall in battle and use the cleric's revive skill. It should leave him on 1 hp
only problem is when leveling him up. It fills his HP back to full. But it looks like that's the only way to do it. Hope there's an equipment that let's the character stay to 1HP all the time even after leveling.
One question, how u get physical dmg buff at first turn? Is it lion dance from dancer or what?
I probably need to level Alfin, I probably don't give him enough credit.
Im newbie for this game. How about tressa and primrose 's class and passive skills for this party ? Thank you
Good video.
Im not any near end games like this, barely in the cahpter 2, but what is the ultimate team ?
Can you one shot Galdera's second phase with this build + Warmaster class?
That fat cait got fuckedddd
His speed must be impressive to hit it, unless last stand has a higher hit rate?? I know this game is years old but I've stumbled upon your octopath videos so much that I gotta sub you
How do you get 1 hp on a character? I only get around 300 then Olberic starts to cover for my apothecary Ophelia.
Have them die in battle, then have ophelia or the sub class use vivify, which will always heal you with 1hp if you dont boost it.
if alvin is that strong, why not use him in party for exp grind, killing all the mob with 1 hit would be much faster than using Bewildering Grace, no? for that I would just need to maximize fighter and apotecary skills right?
Alfyn can axe me anytime
Whats the song of your outro?
Im Tired. Still, wont give up the spam m8.
Solgaleo / Lunala 3DS
Are you level 99 now?
That'll do 'er.
Do you know i can find revitalizing jam
Its sounds like alfyn is saying
RASENGAN
ok I need to stop
Alfroidz
whats a good way to lower hp to 1 before a big fight?
Let alfyn die then revive him with the cleric skill
How do you get those numbers with other abilities than last stand? Its not like Apothecary is anything special when it comes to offensive stats. Warrior, Theif and hunter are all better.
He uses all of his Stat Nuts to boost them for whatever he needs. He mentioned this in one of the comments on his OP Olberic video. With the right Nuts, you can make anyone a mage, warrior, thief, whatever. Keep in mind that nuts give you an increase on your base stats, so they work better with some characters over others. However, at the end of the day, you can just boost the hell out of one character if you really want to.
I personally saved all my nuts for the end, right before the last secret boss, so I can use them on different characters and try different builds or setups to test on the final gauntlet.
How do you stop Alfyn from getting hit though?
Without Runelord Tressa, lol.
you can give another character the guard skill and / or have high evasion and hope for no AOE magic
GotSomeTuna? Does guard protect you from AoE physical attacks as well?
TwinBladeFury it doesent
What level plz and more on equiptment
Why make so many videos about each character if you just gonna show off fortitude, don't you have another build that can do high amount of damage without using fortitude
How'd you actually hit above 9999 damage?
mitchel dizy One of the warrior class's support skills is "surpass", of which raises the damage limit.
CrazyDolphin aww epic! 60 hours into the game and I'm still learning new things every day!!
How do you reliably get to 1HP?
nyghtgt lose challenge
Cavin Anderson Only applies to Olberic and H'aanit.
If you want to do this on someone else, you let them die, then use the cleric's revive skill: this gives them 1 hp to put them on their feet, and nothing more.
Cyrus.
I just hate how Last Stand requires you to be low on health to be useful. That kinda goes against the whole "apothecary" thing. While everyone else is able to plow through enemies, he can't unless he's already almost dead.
"To be useful"
Video has Alfyn at 100% HP still dealing 3000+ damage with it.
Yes, but 3000 isn't nothing compared to the 40,000+ he's dealing at 1 HP.
Flareboxx It is still considerable damage.
Especially in the early game, I regularly use it at full health, and it still does nearly as much damage as all my other AoE attacks. Sometimes more.
It has never done as much as my other AoE attacks. It's just not a notable strategy in big boss fights or he'll die right away. I just hate that.
Why does tressa start with 2 bp?
It's a support skill you get down in the late game
***SSSSKKKKEEEEDDDAAANNNN***
I think the death cleaver is better then the memorial axe just me tho
Thats alot of damage. Lol!
Can you farm nuts?
Not from what I've researched. Otherwise you could just make everyone OP at once.
wanna do even more dmg? Replace Physical Prowess with Stronger Strikes and Just buff his ATK in-battle and lower the enemies' DEF. if the enemy is weak against axes hooooooooo boy. goodbye
more like first stand amirite??????
Therion
How is Alfyn 1 hp?
*ORA*
Xd OP
wtf
