Previous thread:

First for all female barkeeps are busty

I'll give one pity bump, you guys are on your own after this.

What's your favorite EO5 class in terms of what we know about skills so far?

WHen it comes to skills, probably cestus.
But by god, they have awful portraits.

The only one I have any issue with is the girl with purple hair. She rubs me the wrong way for some reason. The rest are fine.

They'd be better if they were flat, but we've already beaten that horse to several deaths.

That twintails looks awful even with a flat chest. She's just ugly.

Way to describe most of EO5

I hadn't noticed before, but Cestus really are just chubby Monks. I miss that midriff.

Fighters can't afford to be scrawny.

Qi>str

tall

Hound, cause using animals sounds neat.

That's an adorably massive difference in foot size.

...

Perfect.

thread dying so fast nobody will realize this post is a sage

...

Almost makes me want to shitpost just to start an argument.

People who color under doors should be gassed.

We could talk about other dungeon crawlers.

But there's clearly a floor there.

E3 tomorrow right?
What are the chances for EOV news considering Persona 5 will be released in 2017

>E3 is murria
>EO5 is not even out yet in japin
eh..

I wouldn't expect much, though a definitive localization announcement would be nice. It would be wonderful if Atlus pulled off what Sega did for 7th Dragon and give us Japanese audio. Ha, like that's ever going to happen.

...

Why is all the dialogue in AA2 a stand?

Araki provided the script for AA2.

what happens next

Why EO has so many lesbians?

>waiting for someone to post that image of the dialogue balloon: "Thjs is what happens when you go to the labyrinth with nothing but just women"

Boy at the in is for BL only.

Angie a cute.

>tfw no Trauma Center team in Untold 2

...

Well, I gave up on trying to kill the Baboon King for the time being and decided to actually finish the Golden Lair first. I've spent a whole month battling this fucker. It's been a nice diversion.

How's your adventuring going?

Waiting for more Oppai Odyssey V news

claret hollows kicked my ass so i gave up and moved on to eou2

Runemaster + Flame Wall
He is a pretty big fag though, took me a good while to beat him.

>Runemaster + Flame Wall
Exactly what I was doing, but I kept having the tides turned on me in the final moments.

>Baboon King summons healing rollers
>do my thing
>All of a sudden he gets to throw them before my Runemaster can finish them off with a flame rune
>tfw she always got them before he acted
>don't know what went differently
If she had higher agility, I'd be golden, but I could only equip her to be the third person to act. Worked for the most part except in moves like that.

I wonder if she's dreaming about that gore comic

Fake loli.
Fake doctor.

I recently started playing EOIV, my first Etrian, since it got a nice price reduction.

Struggling a bit in the 2nd Strata. It seems there are some random encounters which either end in one turn, or go horribly south for me, with enemies sleeping/paralysing my entire party then doing absurd physical damage. It feels basically entirely luck based.

Does anybody have any general tips? Party comp is NS, F, L in front, RM, M in the back.

Don't go at night.

I've paid little attention to the day/night cycle so far, other than for one quest. Thanks for the hint, I'll try to avoid nocturnal explorations until I'm a bit more confident.

...

>You will never take off her ear guards in public.

It's not like it matters outside of that stratum. i take it was the black ape the one thing fucking you up, and it only comes at night.

I can't wait to see Visil 2.0 in EOV

I can't wait to kill Visil 2.0 in EOV

>I've been waiting for this!

>Having an easy time in the Abyssal Shrine
>Finally manage to find the main hallways in B16F
>Encounter Dementia Owl, thinking it'll be easy
>It Confuses the entire party
>I can only watch as my party members slowly kill themselves
>Wildling and Arbalist survive with red health

This is gonna be a little harder than I thought.

Untold 3 reveal when?

>EOU1 story mode replay
>even with increased stats from retiring from 99 and resting to 1 strat 3 still manages to be difficult mainly because of dragonflies
>no gear transferred tho
>but with excellent grimoires
>manage to get through the strata and start exploring strat 4
>just blowing through random fights now with zero resistance
>even the FoE trees go down in a few turns
>suddenly remember I forgot about the violet key
>backtrack
>floor 11
>3 dragonflies and 2 bats
>dragonflies alone rip through front guard 10
>every random battle is a fight to the death and/or based on RNG
>finish all violet doors
>back to strat 4
>everything is easy as fuck again
who the fuck

What are some good dungeon crawlers for someone who likes EO?

3rd stratum was weird

forced meme

>stratum 3 again
>these turtles can kill a 99 retired party with full gear
Yes, 3rd stratum is indeed weird

Wizardry, Class of Heroes, Elminage, Experience games on top of my head.

he said someone who likes EO

>People who disagree with you are trying to force a meme

if it's always the same guys it is

Delete this

EO

>forced meme
>the game with less character characterization

So the meme guy is actually (You). Since you are the one who disagree with them

But it's not. I think EO5's portraits are shit, too.

Bunny Black.

I don't think that EO5 has shit portraits.
Just that every other game in the series has a better set.

Except for EO4. I had a lot of trouble to get a team because all the portraits were boring or outright bad looking. I even had to pick males because of that (no, scruffy wasn't one of them).

EO4 was still leagues better.

3>5>1&2>4

3 has the most consistently good portraits, 5 has the most portraits that I consider outstandingly good, but with a mix of mediocre ones. 1&2 have more plain portraits, but still kinda charming. 4's portraits are mostly just mediocre.

The only good portraits from 4 are Bandanna, Scruffy, Brown Fortress, The Black and Blonde Imperials, and a couple of the Arcanists. The rest are okay at best and boring at worst. The only portrait worse than Shota Monk is the Brown Landsknecht.

>The only portrait worse than Shota Monk is the Brown Landsknecht
Thanks for confirming your shit taste

Not really. I can already plan at least 3 different teams for EO5.

Lucky you

No, I meant the Brown-haired one. My mistake. Trap Shark's alright.

Oh right, the token self-insert boring swordman that we get in every game.

It's a boring portrait, but it's not a bad portrait. The other LS portraits show more character.
Whereas purple hair custus in my opinion is an ugly portrait and so is dreads cestus

He's honestly the only "token self-insert" I'd call boring. The Gladiators and original Landsknechts were cool.

Male Purple Hair or Female Purple Hair? You'd be right about Female, but I'll fight you over Male.

Both male cestuses are good portraits.
Both female necromancers are good portraits
Both male necromancers are bad portraits with little to distinguish between them.
Both female Hounds are good portraits
Both male Hounds are alright portraits, but are identical.
And so on...

>Both male necromancers are bad portraits with little to distinguish between them.
*tip*

The only difference is their skin colour (which can be edited, so it's pretty much a moot point), eye shape and hair style, and their hairstyles are more or less identical.
Female necromancers are hugely different, perhaps the most different two same sex class portraits ever have been in the series.

How can you hate buff, blueberry Griffith?
But you're right to complain about them being headswaps. That's the only real issue I have with EO5 so far.

If she didn't show armpits, lolimancer would be counter-representative of this game's portraits.

>Just that every other game in the series has a better set.
I didn't care much for how angry everyone was in II.

I'd be angry too if a squirrel stole my shit.

Is Kirin immune to binds?

...

MUH FUCKING DIIIIIICK

What's the best way to late game grind in the original etrian odyssey? I've beat primevil before but I just wanted to try out a new party. I've heard about the treefrogs for grinding but it's taking a long time, any better late game stratigies?
