Difference between revisions of "Gladius/Ursula"

Revision as of 15:07, 10 July 2013

Everything from here on is based on a playthrough of Ursula's story

• When Ursula and Urlan level up for the first time, unlock Combo Attack 2. This will make them very powerful for much of Nordagh.
• Recruiting Jeanne the Gungnir in Fliuch is recommended as your school's first recruit.
• As soon as Ursula gets to level 3, go to Vargen and complete the Trial of the Elders league. The last battle in this league will be much easier than if it was done at a later level. This will unlock Iaar the Yeti. He's very powerful at this point since he's the only heavy unit you can recruit in Nordagh.
• Kingdom Open in Orin's Keep must be completed in order to complete enough leagues in Roanor.
• It is recommended (or maybe even necessary) to complete Circle of Elites Qualifier in Roanor, as it opens up the Circle of Elites Tier 1 leagues in other towns.

Current Battle/League Route:

• This is basically a rough draft. Some aspects, especially which units to choose for each battle, definitely need more work.

Visit The Stopover and leave after talking (you can't afford much yet)

Orin

• Championship
  • Championship

This seems to work well so far. Recruiting 2 Gungnirs works great in Nordagh. It also allows for entry into more battles than if you just recruited one, and only had 3 gladiators. This lets you build up more experience and obtain level 3 for three gladiators, letting you complete Trial of the Elders and unlock Iaar. The specifics for each battle need to be worked out, along with which units are best for them both specific to each battle and in the long run.

Some things that need to be done:

• A complete route of battles and leagues.
• An analysis of which classes can unlock Awareness and at what level the AI unlocks it.
• A route that incorporates buying the best equipment from shops. (Not all shops in a region contain the best equipment)
• Specific strategies for some of the more complex/unpredictable battles (Ex: Orus's tournament, battles with multiple teams, Berzerkers, etc.)
• More information on which units are best for speedrunning.
• Data on specific attacks and how much damage they do, along with how it compares to specific classes stats.
