I found out that if you get Abella and do the rest of the steps then Tanaka doesn't come to the train, I think getting Abella is overall better than Tanaka's soul, not too sure but its something worth keeping in mind. You can still get tanakas soul, after entering the place with Abella just instantly leave and then play the game until day 2 I think or just go straight to the main city area, kill the guy trying to kill Tanaka and then he will proceed to move back to the train, after that needles will come and you can just kill him there before he gets to tanaka.
9:32 if you haven't found the skin Bible or you don't want to risk going to the bunker but you still want to kill o'saa, you can find him in the church of all mer by interacting with the confession booth
Also fighting him isn't that hard. He only has 650 hp in his torso, so if you have good weapons and party members (abella and the ghouls) you can beat him before he has the chance to cast hurting. I beat him in my playthrough by black orbing him teehee.
@@Dolan_McDonald after the two shacks below the train tracks there's a small area to the side of the path leading to the forest with a blue herb, there's a one tile patch of grass, and after interacting with it twice it'll say "What's this?" and give you the items with no prompt
"The two earliest characters you can recruit-" You forgot Levi. He's probably the second easiest to recruit, since you have many ways of reaching Prehevil safely whilst the enemies in the deeper woods can ruin you in the early game. That being said, O'saa is still relatively easy to recruit, and a great addition to your team.
My playthrough changed TERRIBLY when I decided to go to the tunnel first thing in the morning and get Abella. I got carried by her for the next of the game. In fact I dread my Abella build because I won't be able to recruit Abella
@@MautheDoog Nerfing is a bad policy because most of the time it makes said item useless in most games. Buffing the other items that were weak before is better but then again if you raise them all to be strong then gameplay itself would get worse because there will be too many OP gear or skills via powercreep that you can choose from.
Same...i was using Marco and even if he is decent, i still struggled against most enemies but with Abella....at least now early battles are not that difficult :D
What I personally like to do with Karin after killing the first 4 contestants is either try my luck for the GOFAH Skin Bible in the Mayor's Manor, or purchase it from Pocketcat with the guaranteed heads, this with engrave and the +1 Agility from Tanaka's soul means you can get 16 Agility very early without needing to use any additional item slots.
@@igneousconch3661 this is only possible if you talk to her on the train in easy mode, she doesn’t give you the book if you’re playing on normal difficulty
I was just finishing my "Kill absolutely everything as Olivia" run and I'm ever so grateful that I went with magic for her build Although having red arc might have been a bit too strong
i personally love playing daan, analyze is the only skill ive ever needed in my playthroughs. plus i just love how tragic of a character he is. also something that happened the other day that i didnt think i could do, i beat the heartless one without any arms and just used ornament lanterns to burn her alive. i have a newfound respect for those things now
That Karin strat really is something. I love the diplomacy skill with her because not only can you kill the bobbies easily like you showed, but you can distract a lot of people sometimes and make them skip a turn. Or, anger them so they lower their guard. Sometimes they get an increase in attack, but also lowers defense. And the lore behind talking to people is cool too.
I followed this guide to play as Abella, but on the train's suitcases I found a H.Needle and a soulstone, giving me exactly what I needed and letting me start doing whatever I wanted.
@22:00 I heard 'Take luxury products." Okay fair enough *takes sip of my drink* "It gives you heroin and pills." I almost spat out my drink in confusion.
how the hell did i not think of going gro goroth affinity with marina I always went with vinushka because I always found his affinity to be the hardest to get and that tree has good skills. amazing video will try these starts out
7:58 Actually I know of a decent way of min maxing god affinity. It involves Samarie’s blood sacrifice and that other “skill” she has. It’s worth noting: -There’s only 4 old god sigils that aren’t already taken of which you can draw on. -With Samarie’s skills you can gain +1 affinity with grogoroth and silvian. -There’s a pre-drawn circle for both grogoroth and silvian in the orphanage. So to max Silvian’s affinity, you just need to draw one sigil for 1 affinity, then have “playtime” on one of these sigils for 1 more affinity. 2 in total. For Grogoroth, simply use blood sacrifice 3 times on the orphanage sigil for 3 affinity. Remember to heal at least around 50 body in between. From there you have 3 empty old god sigils to use for Rher and/or Vinushka. Though it will take a long time to reach the orphanage, so it may be worth just getting affinity how you normally would. That being said, if you wanted to use this min max strategy, pick either Vinushka or Rher for marina’s backstory option. With this strat, marina can then get all 4 old god affinities maxed out.
Some extra notes, might edit later: -Certain other characters can also begin with extra affinity, so this strategy can vary -If we get an update with more Samarie skills for gaining affinity with the other gods, then there’s also a lot of pre-drawn rher sigils too that you could use for extra affinity too.
Blood sacrifice isn’t limited the way Private Time is, so as long as you have healing to spare you can 3x it on the orphanage circle and max Gro-goroth in one go.
I tried using the grogoroth circle but both options to sacrifice bug my characters out by making them invisible, cant open any menus and interact with anything either... Does anyone have this problem too?
"Get Overpowered Early in Fear and Hunger: Termina!" My unga bunga brain... Step 1: Play Marcoh Step 2: Pick Footwork and Accuracy Step 3: ??? Step 4: Profit
Getting Black Kalev early game is just so good for killing Needles early game because he just goes straight for the head, and insta kills him (he somehow did it in two different runs in a row) Also, it's so hard to get affiliation to three with Grogo if you choose Ossa, and if you want to, for example, not sacrifice any characters and want to use some different sigils, it is impossible to get Black Orb on Day2, so I would say that it is better to choose Grogo affiliation instead of Meditation, since you can get Meditation easily by killing every enemy in the early game and have some left over Soul stones
Im going to advocate for the iron spear for osaa, because yes the officer sword is one handed so it gives more insurance incase you lose a limb, but lets be real the sword is worse than the Kaasara you can get at the beginning of the game and you can easily get that with the iron spear. Also pierce damage is the best damage type in the game if you disregard otherworldly and fire damage.
Honestly, kind of retract my statement after playing a bunch of maso mode. In the end, the spear being two-handed is un-optimal and if you don’t start with the spear as Osaa then it’s usually just meh, meat mallet is just better.
11:50 Fun fact, you can obtain those two abilities in the character intro if you choose "Memorize this very line" instead of "Continue with the studies to learn more"
Great video will definitely try it with some of the characters. favorite character, marcoh and I think I'll stick with my build for him 😉 Foot work, +2 agility Bob and weave Counter stance Fist efficiency, +accuracy Avoid armor that reduce agility. Equip: leechmonge ring, small things amulet (+5 agility, extra turns during battles) and eye glasses or heardened heart (expensive) use pinecone with an alley to help get some of these items. I keep Marcoh unarmed since his fist is good enough.
I started the game a couple of months ago, with O'saa, never got past the city so this is a lifesaver (cuz after that, never played again, but i thini ill pick up the game after this)
Very solid guide, I've only played two characters in FH2 so far so this is super helpful for me trying the others. Time to turn the train into a bloodbath. 🔫👱♀
i like magic people in games, stated as ossa and spice forge with blood golem and double smog carried hard, sometime insta smog with low cost black orb or double roots that reap did the trick hard, fun stuff!
Tho this is off topic soon there Will be s multiplayer mod meaning YOU CAN BD ON PARTY WITH 4 ABELAS MEANING 1 UNIQUE WEAPON FOR ABELLA OR 4 SAWS FOR 4 ABELAS 😂
do i HAVE to fight O'ssa? :( I'm still in the early area (not even in the city yet) But, I really wanna play Marina but it seems like you gotta do A LOTTT to get to him anyway, so I'm wondering if I HAVE TO? And if I don't does it make my Easy-er Mode gameplay more difficult? What if I recruit him instead with Marina as the main?
After you blind him with glass, it doesn't really matter as long as you don't attack his arms. His head has low HP so if you've got magic fishing for headshots should take him out really quickly, but otherwise the standard leg>leg>head is fine.
I got ending B with O’saa before watching this. I basically did the Karin method and killed the contestants at any opportunity I had, save for Daan who I allowed to moonscorch into Pocketcat so I can spend some last minute heads before going to the tower. I don’t 100% remember what I started O’saa with, but I know I definitely started with Danse Macabre, officer sword, and +25 body. I spent a couple of asymmetric circles for Gro-Goroth so I can get necromancy and blood golem, except for one time when I lost both my arms fighting the decrepit priest in the manor and drew one for Sylvian, which did give me the helpful pheromones skill. Diplomacy and persuasion was especially helpful because of the bobbies and lowering the other contestants guards down at the start of battle. Of course for the perfection circles I used blood portals the moment I got the skin bible for Alll-mer for fast traveling. Once I got enough soul shards to make soul stones to learn spice forge, a majority of heads from the slums, combined with the skills first blood golem, double black smog, and greater pheromones, I was able to stand up against even the much harder and stronger enemies in the game, like crimson fathers and death masks. I still lost a ton of progress to land mines though.
“So one of the first things you’re gonna wanna do if you’re playing as Olivia is un-equip her wheelchair. This is actually a gag item the developer put into the game, and it makes your character 50% slower and 10% weaker. Don’t worry, Olivia can total walk without it so just un-equip and enjoy your run!”
Would it be OP if executioner just uses 1 less shell to kill instead of double tap? I mean it's balanced to skip fights with 2 shells which limits how strong it is but some enemies need more shells in order to kill them. Not having to just stun them with 1 shell and a 2nd to kill but if they may still need a third or fourth shot. Just having 1 less will make it very strong and competitive to gunslinger and marksman but even later on with more enemies that can't be killed with just two shots, it's not useless but it's definitely not as strong early game.
Unless this game gets on consoles or I get a PC I’ll take your word for it that Heroin indeed gives you a poison debuff. Its like irl except instead of necromancy you got a junkie telling you about George his pet monkey he got from a genie.
With Blood Sacrifice and access to the orphanage, you can max out Gro goroth affinity without even using up a single ritual circle. So picking his affinity during character background is unnecessary.
that's an exploit. Even without the exploit you need to get a gro bible, use a ritual circle (which doesn't do anything else useful), kill samarie, spend soulstones on blood sacrifice. Or just start with Gro affinity and save circles/soulstones for useful things instead
@@MautheDoog I'm confused. Which part of that is an exploit? Blood Sacrifice can be used multiple times on a single ritual circle. The Gro-goroth circle at the orphanage is pre-made and available to use from the start. Also, the skill requires 1 soul stone (which there are PLENTY of) and is a prerequisite for Masturbation so you're going to be getting it anyway if you want to max Sylvain. TLDR Saving Ritual Circles/Free Max Affinity > 1 soul stone and killing a goth
Interesting vid! Seeing the ADarkRaccoon's Karin's murder rush build I wonder if Orange intended that if so that's great coz Karin's like the weakest soul in Termina but this start grants her lots of souls so that weakness is irrelevant.
Marcoh is easily the most overpowered EARLY GAME since he can easily achieve the Meat Grinder so I'll try and use him next time I play (masturbation is the best skill)
Is there a lore reason for the salmonsnake talisman(which protects against burns and limb loss) looking like the head of the sulfur god(who is burned and has lost limbs)?
nothing clear at the moment unfortunately. If I had to guess there's a link because Sulfur likes dismemberment and Salmonsnake protects from it, but there's nothing definitive
If you get a skin bible - grogoroth, and draw his sigil on an old god circle (the same ones you can draw vinushka on). You can also get extra affinity if you use Blood Sacrifice on a grogoroth circle, which you need to kill Samarie for
I just wish I coukd get the meat grinder with Marcoh withiut having to kill any contestants cuz I kobe all of them and I dont want to hurt them...(except before they get moonscorched ofcourse)
Playing as Karin and I looted while going to the next zone and found 2 light blue vials and a regular blue vial and got blinded on my first turn fighting Marina xd

@@mikaelvinicius9866 If you have the recipe in your weapon crafting menu and it's got all the required pieces listed there and you still can't, then it must be bugged sorry. That's not a bug I've heard of before, but the game does have a few of them...

You can get max affinity if you kill samarie and learn blood sacrifice and masturbation(no joke) and enjoy your inf gro gro and sylvian affinity

Actually I know of a decent way of min maxing god affinity. It involves Samarie’s blood sacrifice and that other “skill” she has. It’s worth noting:
-There’s only 4 old god sigils that aren’t already taken of which you can draw on.
-With Samarie’s skills you can gain +1 affinity with grogoroth and silvian.
-There’s a pre-drawn circle for both grogoroth and silvian in the orphanage.
So to max Silvian’s affinity, you just need to draw one sigil for 1 affinity, then have “playtime” on one of these sigils for 1 more affinity. 2 in total.
For Grogoroth, simply use blood sacrifice 3 times on the orphanage sigil for 3 affinity. Remember to heal at least around 50 body in between.
From there you have 3 empty old god sigils to use for Rher and/or Vinushka.
Though it will take a long time to reach the orphanage, so it may be worth just getting affinity how you normally would.
That being said, if you wanted to use this min max strategy, pick either Vinushka or Rher for marina’s backstory option. With this strat, marina can then get all 4 old god affinities maxed out.

-Certain other characters can also begin with extra affinity, so this strategy can vary

Not accuracy, adrenaline rush, big damage go brrrrr
Pick marcoh
Beat the shit out of everyone

Adrenaline rush and max rev up do an absurd amount of damage, and you can turn marcoh into a tank if you use perfect guard with war cry or pheromones
My fav character is gotta be Dann. I love that he can heal right off the bat
24:58 o saa can also kill the other contestants very easily as well due to meditation being bugged
Marcoh is infinitely better with getting the agility bonus over max stamina. because at 16 agility you can attack twice per turn.
love being early, feels like busting out a vintage wine and getting the first glass
Getting Black Kalev early game is just so good for killing Needles early game because he just goes straight for the head, and insta kills him (he somehow did it in two different runs in a row)

Perhaps giving it a use in combat would be better rather than the overworld. Say a chance to instantly remove any limb it hits
one good thing to point out is that you can get a free little things amulet from the text adventure of o'saa
fun fact: Meditation is bugged it is supposed to give you 1 rev point per turn but it gives 2. so you need 1 guard+ to have a full rev up

Its like irl except instead of necromancy you got a junkie telling you about George his pet monkey he got from a genie.
With Blood Sacrifice and access to the orphanage, you can max out Gro goroth affinity without even using up a single ritual circle. So picking his affinity during character background is unnecessary.
that's an exploit. Even without the exploit you need to get a gro bible, use a ritual circle (which doesn't do anything else useful), kill samarie, spend soulstones on blood sacrifice. Or just start with Gro affinity and save circles/soulstones for useful things instead
@@MautheDoog I'm confused. Which part of that is an exploit?
Blood Sacrifice can be used multiple times on a single ritual circle. The Gro-goroth circle at the orphanage is pre-made and available to use from the start.
Also, the skill requires 1 soul stone (which there are PLENTY of) and is a prerequisite for Masturbation so you're going to be getting it anyway if you want to max Sylvain.
TLDR Saving Ritual Circles/Free Max Affinity > 1 soul stone and killing a goth
I thought that being able to use blood sac multiple times was an exploit but I've been informed that it isn't recently@@matthewsaxon3038
@@MautheDoog Fair enough! Thnx for the reply :)
Interesting vid! Seeing the ADarkRaccoon's Karin's murder rush build I wonder if Orange intended that if so that's great coz Karin's like the weakest soul in Termina but this start grants her lots of souls so that weakness is irrelevant.
I literally said what the fuck out loud when I saw you shoot off the lock. It makes so much sense...
I wonder if you could build a super tanky Levi with O'saa skill that gives extra rev points after guard to blast everything away
Marcoh is easily the most overpowered EARLY GAME since he can easily achieve the Meat Grinder so I'll try and use him next time I play (masturbation is the best skill)
24:12 do they not react to you killing him?
It's a little bugged, if you kill Marcoh here first nobody else realises
1:02 how did you shove that blue crate in the bunker upwards while standing next to it?
Is there a lore reason for the salmonsnake talisman(which protects against burns and limb loss) looking like the head of the sulfur god(who is burned and has lost limbs)?
nothing clear at the moment unfortunately. If I had to guess there's a link because Sulfur likes dismemberment and Salmonsnake protects from it, but there's nothing definitive
Saving this video very useful, i still say nothing beat the en garde+white angel soul+ escape plan of cahara it was so broken
Words can't explain how stupid I feel for never shooting the gate
Don't worry, nobody did
@@MautheDoog I guess it's because getting a trenchgun at that point is next to impossible
@ComradeMaryFromMars fake Levi fan confirmed
Thanks to you, the meatgrinder is my all-time favorite, I've achieved all 3 endings in a breeze😂
Meatgrinder my beloved
Idk if it's a bug but you can take weapon craft skill without allocate another abella's skill tree 😉
It is, so I didn't want to mention it 😅
Me explaining how my heroine addiction is actually a good thing in the Funger gaem :D
22:02 how can you have this much lesser souls that early ????? Please I don't understand lmao
Thanks king 😎👑
25:07 Broken Eyeglasses give you -30% Hit Rate. So uhm... maybe don't equip them ;)
1번 벙커가는데 저 괴물을 자연스럽게 스쳐 지나간건 진짜 미쳤고 멋진일이다
I always plan my runs without killing anyone cuz I'm a coward :(
Good video my man
I'm glad you like it!
The greatest thing about RPGs is finding that one thing the developer(s) failed to account for and abusing the hell out of it.
On short circuit vs wrench toss -- Normal mode player: "Choose wrench toss, it's so obvious" Maso mode player: "Choose circuit, it's so obvious"
It is definitely more useful when you want to spend more time underground
Did we ever get a ‘ 10 Rusted Pearls ‘ run yet? 🤔 I wanna see someone collect them all & buy the mauler, don’t think anyone uploaded that yet 😮
If i could get Marco to learn wrench toss without killing Abella, I'd be so happy.
16:55 how do you get Gro-goroth affinity tho?
If you get a skin bible - grogoroth, and draw his sigil on an old god circle (the same ones you can draw vinushka on). You can also get extra affinity if you use Blood Sacrifice on a grogoroth circle, which you need to kill Samarie for
@@MautheDoog Oh yeah, I drew it on the wrong cicrle cause I didn't know the difference
O'ssa is my favorite character in the game.
Man I wish they bring this game on phones. 😢
Engraving GOFAH sigil is better than Rher for all characters, you get to keep your accessory slot and also get double turns
I softlocked myself on a 5hr save with Karin, guess I'll restart on this note then :)
I just wish I coukd get the meat grinder with Marcoh withiut having to kill any contestants cuz I kobe all of them and I dont want to hurt them...(except before they get moonscorched ofcourse)
Playing as Karin and I looted while going to the next zone and found 2 light blue vials and a regular blue vial and got blinded on my first turn fighting Marina xd
haha the Fear & Hunger Experience right there
i have never played this game and this shit feels exactly like hearing celebrity drama about people I have never heard about before "did you hear about how marina killed osar" no the fuck I didnt
lmao
@@MautheDoog i started playing tge game. this is your fault
and how i get soul stones to get the weaponcraft skill?
For Marina, I'd suggest Grogoroth for beginners and Rher for speedrun
Does the defense stat still not work properly like in 1?
Yeah, it functions in a similar way. But like in 1, bigger number is usually still better so you don't have to sweat it
@@MautheDoogI see, thanks!
Marcoh is the man. I always rename him Killer, cause that's what he does best.
Is there anyway as Marcoh to get the grinder weapon without killing Abella to keep her in your party?
Nope, there's no way of getting Meatgrinder at all without her soul. If you're not playing as her, she has to die
Thanks a lot, then die she must! Termina is upon us after all!@@MautheDoog
@@MautheDoog
There's
One bench grinder
At
One of the bunkers where
You recruit osaa
Or defeat the mob and
You
Need
Her weaponcraft skill
Is there anyway to obtain the meatgrindder besides killing Abella?
Unfortunately no, you need her skill Weapon Crafting
You can get the benchgrinder from the angry mob inside the city. That's mid-late game though...
quick question, i got all materials for the meat grinder and i also killed abela and got all of her skills, but i cant craft the meat grinder yet, am i missing something?
You should be able to. You've definitely got all the items and the Weaponcrafting skill? The recipe requires some specific parts
@@MautheDoogi belive i do, i have duct tapes and duck tapes, metal scrap, the bench grinder and the saw blades
@@mikaelvinicius9866 If you have the recipe in your weapon crafting menu and it's got all the required pieces listed there and you still can't, then it must be bugged sorry. That's not a bug I've heard of before, but the game does have a few of them...
@@MautheDoogwell i guess i'll have to do my run without the meatgrinder (wich is fine i guess) it doesent appear the weponcrafting menu for me, but thanks for replying
now I just have to learn how to not felt guilty after killing a character :(
It doesn't get easier, but you get more callous
whyd you recommend meditation and dancing for osaa, you're guaranteed to have both by day 1 evening
you can get everything really quickly, the options I chose were ones I felt were more annoying to get otherwise or better to have from the start
@@MautheDoog right right
Damn I've played ~100 hours of termina and did not know you could just shoot the chains off the city gate with the trench gun. I wonder... if you shoot off the chains early with Levi then go complete Tunnel 7, does Pav still ask you about getting the keys to open the gate? XD
