when most changes were done as a kneejerk reaction to how strong certain classes were in eo1, eo2 isn't really a shining example of class balance

I'm planning to do an NG+ playthrough with a Hell Slash + Chain party using a Therian Blade Dancer, Therian Chain Duelist, Celestrian Spirit Evoker, and Brouni Divine Herald, using Wraith Dance and the elemental prayers to proc both Hell Slash and the elemental chains, the latter of which should proc Hell Slash even more times.
Can this setup kill the superboss without grinding to Lv. 99, and any ideas for a 5th party member? I'm leaning towards running an Earthlain Barrage Brawler for Black Mist + Clinch and Overexertion, but I'm concerned that this could leave me defensively vulnerable during fights against multiple enemies.
Isaiah Foster
This set-up can not work at all. Wraiths deal bash damage and can not be buffed (or debuffed, bound or ailed) so they can never activate elemental Chains. Also I heard that Wraith Dance still only gives one Hell Slash procc per Wraith - but since Wraiths are super slow and Hell Slash also chases enemy hit they are a horrible way to procc chases anyways.

>tfw Survivalist got so nerfed it became a farmer instead
Tyler Edwards
Survivalist is completely different in every game. Not sure if that's good...
Daniel Myers
>grind up to 99r99 >finish setting up my final builds, including maxing Menacing Howl on hound rover >realize I still need to grab Lamia conditional >which gives me a bow that has a better version of menacing howl Well good thing it’s just 2 levels.
Dylan Smith
Menacing Howl uses dog LUC, Alluring Body uses your LUC. Not that panic will contribute much anyways against SD.
Still - good luck, user.

Michael Ross
Just how I like it. Have you seen what happened to Fire Emblem when it stopped being ded?
Brandon Phillips
It was a shit dead game before, then it became a shit but relevant game after awakening so they won in the end
Anthony Davis
The games were at least satisfying to play. Now there are a ton of additonal RNG effects to allow even idiots to beat the game if they try often enough.
Justin Bell
So what? It's not like they affect you directly

Her leg armor looks more like Hoplites or maybe Princesses than Protector. But it looks cute so it's fine.

Why have so many anime girls trouble eating burgers?
Justin Sanders
Non-American
Xavier Cook
Eating burgers isn't rocket science.
Jaxson Mitchell
Hello! My name is Conrad. I'm a member of the freeblade guild and I use they/them pronouns.
Julian James
Most Etrians use those. With how cute some of the shotas are it's better to be safe than sorry.
Henry Russell
*deletes your guild card* heh... nothing personnel, kid
Isaiah Taylor
Conrad looks like he should be in a fujoshit male ballerina anime like homos on ice
Kayden Collins
Hello Conrad. Have you heard of Moon Apples? I hear they're all the rage with Earthlains.
Henry Miller
How do apples regrow in a day when berries are gone forever?
Joshua Murphy
Lunarians snatch them up.
Jayden Barnes
Pancake addiction? Maybe i shouldn't have marked the berry spots on my map and handed it over to Ramus... Now a whole generation of loli elves will spend their youths crawling over the dungeon floor, looking for another berry to get their next cake.
John Powell
That's so mage with more TP than HP.
Julian Lopez
I want a game where I go to the labyrinth but instead of clearing it, I go and collect materials and jew other adventurer's money by selling them pancakes and swords or whatever Then at the end I get to give all my money to Edie just to buy her used panties
Joseph Murphy
I'm glad you aren't in charge of the series
Jaxon Hill
did you know that you get special dialogue with her if you buy everything you can from her store?
Jackson Foster
I did not know this.
Angel Moore
Recettear? It's a bit like this - only with a Fairy instead of Edie.
Luke Turner
Huh... I think I'll pick that up then. Thank you user, hadn't heard of that one
Kevin Thomas
Protip: Don't listen to jewfairy, if you try to turbojew prices at the start you'll break combos and bankrupt your customers. Then poorfag-chan will make your life a living hell and you'll be forced to repay your debt with peak efficiency prostitution.

I don't play anime games on steam
Charles Jenkins
A good idea for the most part.
Liam Morgan
I don't play them too and yet it was the meme game of the year discussed literally everywhere
Jason Cruz
Which year though?
Ethan Thomas
Is Rover healing any good later on (with a dedicated healer), or does it become useless?
Zachary Hall
Like hell i remember, 2010 or 2012 or something (still a better year than 2017)
Jonathan Ward
Don't make me feel so underage, grandpa
Easton Ward
Rover can easily be your dedicated healer if you go the doggo route.
Animal Therapy will just trickle in some HP every turn but all heals your dog does scale with HP of the person healed - so even the auto-heal it uses when it has no other commands stays relevant.
Aiden Collins
It was 2010, apparently.

a new defanger approaches
Grayson Barnes
Oh, so far it's been underwhelming, barely beat the first boss using the full 80tp my botanist has to stay afloat. And also no revive skill, from what I've seen.
Xavier Torres
why is she so good
Owen Nguyen
Who is Umu?
Lincoln Fisher
shit
Jeremiah Richardson
Why would you put a shit character in your team?
Carter Campbell

Xavier Young
How important is armor in EOIV? Heard there's some bullshit involved.
Nectars are super easy to farm - but yes, Botanist is the only class with a reliable revive skill. Deathguard Harbinger and Evoker Necro get chance-based party revives and Earthlain's have a Union skill that revives. But for the most part, not dying does the trick.
Zachary Jones
Armor has massive diminishing returns. Basically, if you have body armor of any kind (even cloth) additional armor will not give you that much more survivability. That's why it's best for everyone to wear a stat accessory (or Lion Medal in the post-game) and once subclassing has been unlocked to dual wield (except for Fortress since they need a shield for their skills and for any class wielding a weapon that disables dual wielding). Before subclassing only Nightseeker can dual wield but afterwards everyone can just in case they use skills of their sub-class that need a specific weapon. However even if you don't even use your second weapon the ability to forge stats on them turns them into secondary accessories and makes them better than any small armor piece.
Isaac Cooper
>not dual weilding sheilds
Nathan Lopez
Start maxing stuff, user. The Guards you actually use. Bunker, Auto-Bunker, Dragon Roar, Auto-Roar, Dragon Force. Barrage Wall, Recovery Guard, Full Guard and Soul Guard are all shit so you don't need a single point in them. Even Shield Throw can wait.
