The dungeons with the ? levels that scale with your team's current level can actually be manipulated by entering the dungeon with all of your equipment in your backpack, and then equiping it all once you do enter it. I'm surprised you didn't mention this.
Didn't know about that. What a strange oversight.
I remember doing that to grind deva tag dungeons lol
Woah
Just as I started grinding them for Forbidden Fruits
Thanks for the advice!
Now I know what to do to clear the Labyrinth of Legend, that one is especially hard
Busters T alone is worth more than any of the Pokemon games past Unova. If only Level Five did some actual advertising. Yo-Kai Watch would probably be on par with Fire Emblem or something in the states and we'd be enjoying YKW4 right now.
Yeah
I don’t even like Busters T as much as WDS or RCC but even I agree! (Though I did love the increased difficulty and not needing to trade to fill out the Pokédex in Legends Arceus.)
There is more hope than every now. Let's all buy the Jibanyan DLC for Megaton Musashi to help get 4 localized.
I like how they handled Forbidden Fruit in this game, while yes it's essentially Yokai Watch's Master Ball, it also fixes its major flaw in my opinion. A major issue I have with the Master Ball is that since you only get 1 of them, you usually have save it for a powerful Legendary. Still, since it's also essentially a free win it sorta makes what would be climatic battles against a powerful foe kinda anti-climatic and disappointing. With Yokai Watch's battle system making it so that you need to defeat the Yokai before you'll get the chance to befriend them, you get to do your climatic battle while keeping the benefits of the Master Ball, so you both won't get a free win and get a guaranteed reward for your efforts. And since you can get multiple of these fruits instead of just 1, you also have the ability to use them to get some odd common Yokai you couldn't get previously due to some bad luck for completion purposes and not feel like you need to save it for just the right case. It also fixes one of the biggest annoyances in the series in trying to befriend one a-day yokai while maintaining the challenge of their fights, the fruit just gives the practicality of guaranteeing your rewards and skipping out on the grind of attempting each battle once a day, Forbidden Fruit just guarantees a reward, but you aren't robbed of the experience in getting that reward yourself, you're just cutting out the potential hassle of getting that reward in question. What do you think of this stance DrCoeloCephalo? do you agree or have something to add to this viewpoint.
Pretty much agree with everything you say here. Part of the issue I have with collecting monsters in Pokemon is that throwing balls is too easy and reduces alot of engagement and that carries over to PLA.
Yeah the only Pokemon game on my mind that does have you catch pokemon after you actually battle them was of all things Pokemon Shuffle on Mobile Devices and the 3DS, but even then Yokai Watch did it better
I would pay like 10 bucks for blasters T alone
granted with how absurd the price of Yo kai watch 3 has gotten it's fair
I think the forbidden fruit the best part of blasters T because you don't have to waste time to befriend the really rare yokai.
*once a day yo kai
@@PancakemonsterFO4 Yeah but sometimes I use on not once a day Yo-kai if they annoy me. Like I used it on Krystal Fox because it took me forever to find her.
@@Gatorboy5678 oh yeah it had a reeeally specific spot next to a truck in akihabara (the nerd place)
Words can not express how long i have spent playing this mode.
My own save file is at 500+ hours, I believe.
lucky i got my own copy of YKW3 in english before they started getting expensive. Love the content still being made for yo kai watch!
As much as I like Blasters T, I think my biggest problem with it is that to beat the endgame bosses and dungeons you need to have a team of actual humans playing with you. Given that the online community for the game has pretty much died (to my knowledge anyway) getting a lot of the more rare Yo-Kai like the Devas a lot harder than they already are.
It IS possible to get strong enough to clear dungeons yourself. It's just very hard.
Beating the deva missions are extremely easy, unequip your equips and put them in your inventory, then requip them in the dungeon. If you want the 3 Emma’s then get the team of Hino awoken some dps and 2 healers (use Rgt Zazel and someone else). You should go for infinite enma first as he is the best one and replace the dps with infinite enma
It's a dps check honestly. If you get a single Deva they snowball into each other. From personal experience the best one is Awoken Enma to get early. After that you can snowball into the others. Team comp is key. Because the AI is garbage I reccomend playing the healer and switching to certain characters for when you need to do something specific or you need to use a certain cooldown. I have beaten the entire mode on solo. The only one I have done in multi is the 40 floors (i believe) of Enma palace to unlock the 3 Deva enmas locked behind it.
But even that I believe to be possible. I haven't redone it because it is a chore but I do believe you can do it on your own. Getaway Dolls are your best friend. Ignore every item besides those amd maps. Rice balls and damaging items are nice but only if you have the space for them. As for gear pick it up to check if its better if it isn't throw it away. And use enhancing orbs as soon as you get them to free up space.
For team comp I highly suggest you go full dps with either 1 or 2 healers one of whch you'll play. I cleared this mode with 3 dps and 1 Heal up until I got my first deva.
if you had hinozall awoken or pandanoko youre automatically the coolest treasure hunter in the game
blasters T did what busters 2 could only dream of
one of my favorite youtubers making a video about my favorite mini game inside my favorite game :0
I played this game mode while waiting for stuff in Disney land and boy I pretty much raided those dungeons till they were empty, and I never got bored
The amount of time I've sunk in this mode alone is insane. 3 has so much content in it.
I spent so many hours in this side mode that I basically have a decent guess on weres the exit sometimes.
Im here rewatching this a bit later, but this video literally made me continue work on my save file I've had since launch in America, and i now have unlocked access to the 3 different dimension Enmas, and befriended Solar Enma, which gives me a hankering for official format battles. Thanks for making another video on why Yo-Kai Watch has great game design
Also tip for people who are doing Blasters T solo: the Legendary Aura gives a +2 ATK and +3 HP buff, and while i don't know the percentage each + gives, its enough that it's worthwhile if you need to cheese any fights in Blasters T. And theres an aura that gives you're team immunity to traps and increases all party members speed to "fast", so thats great when doing dasterdly dungeons
Just when i was looking for yw content, perfect. Edit: i wonder how the next owners of nates house react when the see the Inerdimensional place in there back yard. Unless i forgot something.

That all depends on if Hidabat ever decides to sell it
@@DrCoeloCephaloThe pharoh's curse
Love your yo kai watch video. I always learn something new about the series that I had no idea was a thing keep up the good work.😊
i remember asking my parents for busters when it was still japan only, i got 3 and was disappointed but still happy since more yokai watch, imagine my surprise when it was revealed to me that i not only got a new yokai watch game, i got blasters as a side mode within that game and it was as big as the original full game, still have the memory of getting disconnected from a dungeon at the boss and soloing the rest of it
Just run birdsong aura with the chest mimic yo kai from the second keyhole dungeon, you will get much more treasure yo kai that way and the mimics Fanny That ability increases the chance of clue t facts (did i mention treasure chests also drop ghastly fragments?) in each chest. Easiest way to farm forbidden fruit and specific clue t fact yo kai like gutsy bones who is a amazing crit booster as a soulstone
The first 30 seconds of this video is everything I’ve been tryna tell people to convince them to play it, god I love this game so much I finally hacked my 3DS and am playing through it all the way now that I’m not using my pc cause it’s just less convenient. Loving the treasure mode so much it’s insane, it really does have so much content and I thought I wouldn’t like it at first but I fell in love after grinding it to get Puppynyan. Felt so good to accomplish that. Perfect progression and difficulty.
Having two Solar Enma’s be like: Double SUN POWER
your descriptions of the yo kai are on point
also cluvian keyhole is the name of the first dungeon, not the name of dungeon levels
@@catalyst539 Whoops. My mistake.
I love that you called this PMD Yokai Watch, as that describes it perfectly. As a fan of both, I can attest to this! I swear, most of my hours on my (COMPLETELY LEGIT) YKW3 save are on BlasTers alone, it's so addicting and fun.
Speaking of, YKW as a whole is fun and I've done some crazy stuff in 3, like: (disclaimer: some of these were done with save states to skip the searching process all over)
Getting Snartle with a Rank D (maybe E) watch (Will tell how if anyone is interested)
Get Tengu and Tenguriginal right when they were available (aka when the tornadoes started to show up but I want to say around a rank C watch?)
Get Adderall (Awoken) Enma on my first try (no save states)
Chapter 7 with yokai in the 50s/60s (team range of 35-62)
Have 6/7 Gods of Fortune (missing Fukurokuju)
Max out my teams' attacks, techniques, and soultimates
And probably more! Did I mention I'm only at Chapter 7 because I actively didn't do the story to play BlasTers? :D
Grinding issues made non existant lol.
Is it still possible to use the online functionality now that the 3ds servers have been shut down? or has the community done some shenanigans to continue it in spite of that?
Regardless, amazing video! Love your content
The 3DS online functionality does NOT use servers. It uses peer2peer connections so you can go online to play with people WITHOUT relying on servers. It's just that the game is very niche in the U.S. that you would be better off finding online friends through Discord to play with or pray someone is online actively.
"A zombie babysitter with strong resolve"
Why
Why is this accurate
Also you guys had trouble with Moolinda ?
Everyone has trouble with Moolinda. She's an actually hard cow boss to deal with unlike Whitney's Miltank.
@@DrCoeloCephalo That funny because for me she was one of the easiest, my team isn't even that good.
Its kinda like pokemon mystery dungeon. I love it. Even i think paying for dlc is stupid. Ill do anything for pokemon but least make it at a reasonable price for dlc
What I like about blasters T is that nothing is locked behind multiplayer, in blasters red cat corps & white dog squad certain bosses(like red paws) and befriendable yokai we re locked behind playing with other people. Thankfully, that's not the case in T.
Now that you say it, I would kill for a Yo-kai Watch mystery dungeon game!
It already exists lol.
I finally managed to get Yo-kai Watch 3 a few months ago before the E-shop closed, and once I was able to do the Blasters T mode, I got addicted.
Like, no joke. I would play Blasters T for hours to get good Yo-kai and Clu-T-facts to get good items for my Yo-kai. I completed the map and beated the pyramid, so now I'm just hunting the Enmas and other Yo-kai that I can get my hands on. I get my ass kicked cuz skill issue on my part, but it's a fun experience!
I just like that he used Pokemon mystery dungeon music.
It's good music.
Is Busters T enjoyable at some points, yes but it is not only extremely basic but it is also overpowered. Whoever thought that having a game mode where you can get some of the strongest yo Kai before the 4th chapter is insane, not to mention that ykw3 already being an extremely easy game. And saying this game is like blasters is an insult to blasters 1, it is the absolute barebones of blasters, next to none customization and meta being extremely small, practically needing infinite enma and hino awoken. (I understand you addressed these ideas except for the meta but it feels like that these ideas have to be emphasized)
And I forgot a healer is pretty much needed and a yo Kai with a clu t fact booster is highly recommended
Hence the criticisms noted towards the end.
I believe the best way to handle Blaster would would been to make it post game only.
@@ZE.brigitte You should never have to exclude in game features for your regular play through, it’s bad game design
@@mario22blue44
yo kai watch isn’t known for its story
the postgame is the highlight
that scarlet and voilet joke
And no one is gonna say a darn thing to contest it lol.

My favorite game design series
While I like both the Yo-Kai Watch Blasters series and the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, I prefer the Blasters series more overall. Part of its due to a personal bias of liking Yo-Kai Watch more than Pokémon overall. But the Blasters games do the dungeon crawler gameplay better since your not stuck on a grid and can move in a full 360 degrees and battles take place in real time and aren’t turn based. It just feel much less restrictive which I really like.
Im always watching your Twitter in the school toilet
Twitter has a 17+ rating on the app store. If you are still in school, you definitely should not be on there. You should probably focus on your schoolwork instead of stalking someone and you better hope your parents do not catch you and lock up your phone privileges lol.
I wo der if anyone gonna mention busters 2 also all this stuff for a side mode is insane especially when there is a whole adventure and postgame in yo kai watch 3 so yeah yo kai watch be bashing out pokemon but still being less popular
Praise be the lamb
Supernatural beings engage in roguelike gameplay.
Could you make a video about the infinite tunnel from Yo-Kai Watch 2
Maybe someday.
Time to take some notes.
This is crazy
my ONLY gripe with busters T is that it made it WAAYYY too easy
Live and learn! Scarlett and Violet?
Reasons why Yokai Watch Busters is better than Pokémon Myster Dungeon…
1) you can change all party members so you aren’t stuck with only one Pokémon to adapt for the dungeon as the other slots are taken up by the weak as hell starter Mons you picked via taking a FUCKING BUZZFEED Personality QUIZ
2)
2) there’s nothing else really… man that restricting you’re adaptability to one slot is fucking stupid
Player freedom and player choice is GOOD. Who could have guessed?
Also IM NOT FUCKING JOKING when I said you pick your two waste of team slots is VIA A FUCKING BUSSFEED Personality Test
@@BlackdragonTheShadow I know all too well. I restarted so many times just so I could play as Munchlax.
Am I the only one ho finds this mode REALLY difficult? If anyone has any tips that would be nice.
Use Yo-Kai that have Skills that can lead you to the stairs or Treasure Chests like Treasure Pest or Originyan.
Ultimate Robonyan is immune to traps, so you can explore the dungeon safely playing as him.
How do you unlock the statue dungeon?
@@Seth528 I think you have to keep playing Suspicious Room until you can unlock its area.
@@DrCoeloCephalo I got it. Guess I just had bad rng on my first few attempts. Thanks.
Why pokemon could just copy what yo kai watch did that would make more competition
They kinda already did. Sun and Moon is full of shoddy attempts at Yo-Kai Watch features.
@@DrCoeloCephalo wait how about yo kai watch 4?
@@aaronyang64dragonproductio88 Nothing immediately comes to mind as ideas they took from YKW4.
Blasters T is the most boring game mode in ykw ever - there is no real sense of reward it just feels like cheating and most of the time in Busters T it just feels like Chest spamming Clu-T Facts. Blasters (the game) however, is a masterpiece. Also you can’t change moves in BT which is disappointing (and the team AI is garbage).
Cap
Fr! RCC and WDS are way better! (Which is why WDS is my favorite Yo-kai Watch game)
@@t0p1cRYeah big cap.
Its boring, but I do prefer it over having to fight dame demona 50000 times for xp
@@fupelius those aren't even the same game... also there are way better exp farming methods than fighting dame demona in ykw2 , like the happy-go lucky express. If you don't have psychic spectres, mod your 3ds lol (it takes 15 minutes)

What's that?

Nah.
