Current Events > You gonna play Unicorn Overlord?

(+) Yeah! (+)

The only shitty part of the localization is "ser"

Generally speaking, yeah it's worth it. AFAIK you only get one unit of every type and you definitely have no reason, beyond personal ones, to not get more than one of the super relevant unit types. Like, you don't really need a second Lex running around but Cavalry are good enough that having a fifth Clive wouldn't be too shabby. You also get the advantage of being able to set their stats immediately, instead of using an expensive item, and many of the unique characters have kind of bad growth choices (though none bad enough that they actively harm you clearing stuff).

I caught a "gaol" or two as well

Yeah I think I've sorta got it figured out by now. What I'd done was the first 2 tutorial/story missions, then the archer sidequest (which freed up another town I didn't have the resources to rebuild yet) and then I wandered until I found that angel mission and got whooped

Now that I've done other missions and wandered around a bit more, I realize the idea here is that I could have explored for resources and rebuilt the town (which would probably get me to D rank) before actually attempting to fight anything. But I was sort of interpreting the game as the sort of thing where you just press ahead constantly and maybe every so rarely you go back to all the towns you forgot about and fix them all up. when really I should be making an effort to level them up before combat missions

The localization is distractingly terrible. Rather than the usual edits and punch ups they're actually adding a lot of dialogue; seems weird but localizers will continue to impress me with how awful they are at every opportunity.

Alright good to know. I have recruited some others like hoplites and those barbarians, was just wondering if I should hold out. Sounds like I'm gonna go get some gryphon knights! And set up a magical unit! Hoplites rock in the front row. And good god the cavalry is absurd. I have Clive jacked up with high crit and focused on hitting lowest HP enemies and he ends up just killing everything since he gains AP after killing something.

Go for it! (b ' ')b

Just keep in mind not to go too overboard as you have limited resources initially so spending it all on mercs can hit you on other things (such as promotions). Mercs are great, but there is definitely a level of resource management that has to be done.

Gamestop and Best Buys around me already mostly sold out or only have 1 in stock. About to go 20 miles to pick up my copy because of this topic lol.

Get it on Amazon, should be easy. Mine was first day delivered on Switch last Friday.

EDIT: Actually looks like it's already back ordered from March 25th - April 11th. Glad I got mine.

Ah, whoops. Was like, how can I get an angel that soon?!

I don't even have Gryphon Knights yet. Is it worth it to recruit people or should I just wait until I get the named people?

Everything else is fine.

I'm running teams (with a few notable exceptions) that are based on one factor: do you characters have a personal history together? Into the same unit with you! It creates some surprisingly good teams.

They completely change dialogue at times; there's a lot of times the Japanese is very concise and direct but they "flower up" the language with similes for some reason.

You have any examples of this or is it "trust me bro"

I do that too although sometimes the teams it puts together suck. There's also not enough room sometimes either. There's also a few oddballs that don't have any personal connections like Bruno.

I can't wait to see what kind of makeups people use. So far I've found thieves in the front line with a hoplite in the back for extra guarding has been absurdly good. Toss in an archer and a witch and it's just a power house.

What goes well with gryphon knights? I am thinking a soldier would be good for some healing and poking. So far, I haven't found anything useful for warriors. Mordon or whatever is excessively meh so far.

@Karovorak , what are your teams looking like? Who does what?

I will respond a bit later once I'm free, but someone just told me that it's possible to use provoke to pull archers and mages off of watchtowers. Can anyone verify this?

Again, if you can understand Japanese and listen it's just distracting when they "juice up" things like this.

My god why haven't I thought of this

Should I be getting all my teams to 5 people or promoting my units first?

Promote them all.

200 honor for the 4->5 upgrade is a lot compared to the cost of only ~30 honor for the average promotion. 6 promoted people should have far more value than a single extra slot in a squad.

Also, promote the MC ASAP.
As soon as you hit B, fast travel to the next fort and promote him.

Promoting only costs 30 Honors? Lol, okay then! That settles that!

Depends on the class.

Some 25, some 30, some 35.

Alain and Scarlet 50.

All the unique classes are 50

Came home, and just played 2 hours only in the fort doing mock up battles doing SCIENCE.

everyone against everyone, looking for faults and errors, writing notes, adjusting gear for obvious flaws and tactics too..

It wasn't perfectly balanced because most of my teams are still 4 units, and some are already level 25 (for the next skill) and others are not, but my strongest team is still a 4 unit team.

Biggest lesson of the story:

Breaker is broken.

Breaker?

Promoted Warrior.

Why are we talking in spoilers?

Because maybe some people don't want my advanced scientific knowledge to break their game. Pun intentend.

I truly wrote quite some notes together, but I think I should truly try it out again when everyone is lvl 25 to have the same amount of skills.

Some stuff worked great, some equipment too, some stuff didn't work at all and needs some touches. Overall, more surprises than expected, especially because one of my most solid PvE units (I would say 2nd best overall), ended up only 6th place out of 8. (yes, I even wrote score for wins, kills, deaths and loses).

Data plz
