Another tip to pass along, check filing cabinets. The one near Hoylake has 5 blank tapes which can be very useful in the beginning of the game when you can access it. And the filing cabinet in every “vampire” base has a fixed material
I don't know if you'll cover this in your bootleg hunting guide. But I've been messing around with the ritual candle. If you turn off autosaves before you perform the ritual and recycle the same tape everytime the world encounters will always be the same. I tested it out by sacrificing a Salamagus and going to the same square ten times. Every time it was an Earth Salamagus fuzed with a Dandylion.
@@minegagadoli I was thinking that each monster may have a unique seed that affects it. I was going to test it out more by recording multiple Salamagus and seeing if when I release them if the raids change at all. But a save seed could also influence it!
@@christopherbuglar-ws1ey It is seed you don't need to do those kinds of tests to figure it out. Without sacrificing Fusions/Refights/Shirtless/Shadow will always spawn in the same order and same locations while attacks will always hit/miss in the same order and passive effects from stickers will even activate in the same way.
You can save AFTER sacrificing, and if you don't like the fusion just reset and go to a DIFFERENT location (fusion) or sleep to pass the day, every day the pool is different. But if you save after the fusion is spawned on the map and reset, you lose it forever. That's because when you exit and re-enter the game resets the map to empty (deletes all the spawned stuff) and you're already past the "time" for that fusion spawn so it never has a chance to spawn again. Of course everything spawned AFTER your save point will be the same every reset..
Glass cannon build Free AP and gambit autostart. Use dual wield and multi hit below Companion as the opposite attack type diverting the attention/support
If you want to beat Wonderful 7, consider spamming Fog to make all of them miss :D Fog costs a ton of AP, and it affects your team too, but it limits the opponent's offense as well. Or you could sit behind an astral wall to bait out a metal move.
Something I discovered is that sticky web gets you way more critical hits, and is guaranteed for moves with 100% accuracy. There is some powerful stuff you can do with this, ahem- critical mass.
Glaistain is not tanky, if you're taking more than 3 hits in the face you're almost certainly dead. The Resonance status is the least of your concerns with Glaistain. A different story is a real tank monster, never use a Glass bootleg tank or you're begging for Resonance.
@@jimmyh2137 honestly resonance has never really been a problem for me even in postgame. Plus I'm pretty sure there's gotta be a solid handful of glass bootlegs that can use air resist stickers.
A fun set-up movelist i started using was echolocation, lightning paint, and a bunch of prestrikes on two monsters then switching between them to keep procing the passive. Feels broken.
Do not waste a Candle on the Traffikrab, a certain entity will drop a tape that forces a monster to be a Astral Bootleg when used. You should naturally find this entity and if you get the drop on them the reward will make getting Astral Bootlegs a lot cheaper and less time consuming. Saving 50 Fused Material is too big to ignore.
@@Phantasm_4ever Presumably, Black Shuck. The shadow of the player character. 1% chance of fighting it when you run into it and spawns with an astral version of your party, along with infinite ghost, so if you take a Trafikrab and make an Astral bootleg. Or any bootleg, for that matter. Want an astral Khepri? Or how about an Astral Bulletino?
@@scrapkingkeita3825 I know it's been four months. But oh my God. My jaw is dropped. The shadow-y thing is NOT a bug????? It's actually a THING? I've encountered it three times now and I'm like, "oooh, creepy bug". Probably that I know about this now, it's never appearing again. THANK YOU, THO!
TBH that drop is WAY, WAAAY harder to get than a Ritual candle. You should absolutely use a candle and not waste your time hunting for Black Shuck. Also the Candle should be a random drop from Archangels refights post-game. You can fight them again and again with no limits and drop Candles (not sure if only some specific fights drop the candle or not). They also drop the 100% catch rate tape (maybe a different set of fights from candle drop? not sure)
In one of my safe files I went to the bootleg house and got a metal bootleg sirenade. And then on my main account I was trying to hunt for a bootleg sirenade and I got another metal bootleg. Then on my other account I got another bootleg metal sirenade.If it happens one more time i'm going to scream.
I know im late, but I saw no mention of the move New Leaf. New Leaf removes all status effects of the target. It may default to targeting your beast, but u can use it on enemies. Remove their buffs. Removes walls, too.
Not bugged. You get +1 AP if you start the battle with the electricity power active. Guaranteed, 100%, start with 3 AP. Doesn't work on rogue fusions, archangels, trainers and such because you can't start the battle with the power active.

It's probabily linked to the save's seed

You can wait out that cycle of fusions for when the over-world resets.
You can save AFTER sacrificing, and if you don't like the fusion just reset and go to a DIFFERENT location (fusion) or sleep to pass the day, every day the pool is different.
But if you save after the fusion is spawned on the map and reset, you lose it forever. That's because when you exit and re-enter the game resets the map to empty (deletes all the spawned stuff) and you're already past the "time" for that fusion spawn so it never has a chance to spawn again.

Wonderful 7 is already my favorite move. Love to see it get its own segment.
These are great! Those new game options unlocked after you beat the game sound amazing.
DUDE THANKS ALOT
I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT SCALING THE AI UP AND MAKING IT DUMB THANKS!

I got really lucky and found an electric bootleg glaistein, and i wanted the astral traffikrab lol

Sticky web + stab in the dark goes hard
Not sure if you ever figured it out but the fridge and file cabinet can give items I'm not sure what the conditions are though
I check everything and sometimes get coffee or rewinds it’s nothing great
My only tip is to avoid using glastain. It can get the resonance status effect quite easily and insta die.
underrated but if u gambit/ghost with glastain you can take advantage of its strong attacking stats and very good speed to kill before you die
Or you can get a bootleg glaistain
Glaistain is not tanky, if you're taking more than 3 hits in the face you're almost certainly dead. The Resonance status is the least of your concerns with Glaistain.

Love this informative video gym leader Ed.
In one of my safe files I went to the bootleg house and got a metal bootleg sirenade. And then on my main account I was trying to hunt for a bootleg sirenade and I got another metal bootleg.

New Leaf removes all status effects of the target. It may default to targeting your beast, but u can use it on enemies. Remove their buffs.
Removes walls, too.
It also removes ghost without killing the enemy. Handy for if you need to record a ghostly enemy.
Funnily enough it also removes the "revived" status so you/the enemy can revive again XD
Another tipp: dont buy the bag that lets you have 3 ap from the beginning... its buged and dosent do what it says (costs 10 fusion shards)
Use electricity power when running into enemy
Not bugged. You get +1 AP if you start the battle with the electricity power active. Guaranteed, 100%, start with 3 AP.
Doesn't work on rogue fusions, archangels, trainers and such because you can't start the battle with the power active.
you honestly say wonderful 7 is op but i littarly did 200-300 dmg with just hot potato on those angel bosses XD
Dude wait till u see my video later today. Khepri OP
@@GymLeaderEd Khepri go brrrrrr!
@@lilymoncat Switch it into an echolocation mon and it goes even more BRRRR
Lol I did critical mass: gear shear 5 times in a row because of sticky web.
When i received the random bootleg well it was a plastic trafficcrab... is just more red...
That's imposible. Plastic is it's base element.
@@DavidUtau that's what i thought but is just more red, you can get beasts of its own element but they are more colored.
@@DavidUtau not impossible. You can find bootlegs of all types. Yes, even the original type. It's quite handy actually.
LAUNCHDAY Definitely still works on the mailbox
Wanderful 7 is usless
Lol no it's not, it has put enemies to sleep many times and is decently strong.
