There is a bug. If you go into the black tower and find the Girl with her dead master , you get into a fight scene. One fat monster and its 3 minions. If you kill the three minions with AOE , the fat monster won't attack and be stuck in his turn

Thank you for reporting that Mando, will test and fix ;)

Came back after a long pause and I have to say alot of things have improved.

But I feel like the fights are borderline too hard.

In the final fight both Hottie and Lust died pretty early due to being worn out from the other battles.
Potions are underpowered. Suggest an increase of 5 health points or MP points per Potion

Only won it because Mina ( Demonic upgrade) is borderline overpowered with her reset and sustain. But every other Companion feel either a bit too underpowered or too ressource hungry that playing them isn't worth it.

Suggestion for Buffs

1) Hottie needs some buffs. While she is fine in terms of attack power and supportive abilities , she is extremely ressource hungry. Maybe tone down the mana cost slightly.

2) Buff the Guard option. The fact that your character can still take 40 critical dmg despite guarding is kinda underwhelming

3) From what I read Druida was described as OP , but imo her utility isn't worth her lack of offensive power

4) Non sustain characters like Black panther or Ramses ( ? was that his name ?) who rely on physical dmg feel a bit weak. Might need a huge dmg buff. I maxed Dexterity and Dmg on them and they only did 1/4 of Hottie's Aoe Dmg to a single target.

I think Nemury is well balanced

Bugs: If you use the fatality move of Maria ( Demonic Upgrade) it shows the Micia ( the Cat) fatality animation

Criticism : The Demonic upgrade forms for certain characters look fantastic like Ramses, Maria, Mina or Druidia but for others it looks underwhelming like Black panther only gets red eyes and Nemury only wears more revealing clothes

Other Suggestion : More Male companions please since it's 2 ( Ramses, Black panther ) male vs 6 Mina, Micia, Bunny, Nemury, Druida, Maria ) 6 female right now.

Hey Mando,
thank you for all the feedback that is awesome. The fatality great to know we will fix it.
Regarding the rest we will discuss it. Anyway, Below are some notes.
(readers be advised, there might be some spoilers)
Before the final battle did you use the infernal liquid to regenerate Lust and Hottie?
Did you use Summoning items like the Earth stone for armor, Water to get an extra attack turn, Flower for Fatigue etc? Those items if used well are very powerful.
The final boss is very strong in his initial form, it can kill the whole party quickly and we did this on purpose. We wanted to change the rules of engagement, to make things a bit more interesting. Normally a lot of players will start with basic attacks and then maybe use some Special Abilities towards the end of the fight. This approach is very bad against Baylor. We do give a small tip toward this in the final dialogue with Frosty where she says something like: "I should have attacked with everything I had from the start". We also give another hint towards this in the fight itself, if you do normal attacks and little damage Baylor will laugh at you during his first turn, effectively giving you another chance to change tactic before he starts murdering your party. If you attack him hard and make him transform into his weaker form you should be able to get rid of him quite easily.
Battling the undead works under special rules, fire attacks do double the normal damage and physical attacks do 50% of the normal damage. So you will notice a huge difference between Hottie's dmg and maybe a melee attack of another character when fighting the undead.
I do recommend using all the Mana Elixirs for Hottie as her attacks are super powerful but yeah, they do have the downside that they will cost.
Druidia has 2 special abilities, one is attack based allowing for a Direwolf to keep attacking an enemy non stop every turn till it is defeated, the other is quite unique as it regenerates Fatigue and will allow, for example, to have Hottie or Lust use their Special twice and still be able to fight as they will not be completely fatigued. If you use this in combination with the Fairy Flower and the Prototype Fatigue Elixir you can come up with some very interesting combos. Additionally, Druidia has a lot of CON and regenerates HP every turn at no cost. She is really hard to kill.
Mina is very strong yes. Black Panther is a best, if you buff his STR, especially when not fighting the undead, he does a lot of dmg. He is also excellent in finishing off enemies due to his double attack, as he would have to miss twice in a row to fail. Ramset has a very good AOE Special Ability. It costs only 3 Fatigue instead of 10 so it can be used a lot of times. Especially if he is in demonic form as he gets extra max Fatigue. He is one of the very few characters that like Hottie, can do some serious crowd control thanks to this skill.
Anyway, I am writing too much, so I will stop here ^^
But many thanks for all that, I will go over it with the team.

Also wanted to add that I know from experience how hard it is to animate but you reuse the same animation for Lust too often ( Fairy Queen, Sun emperess etc. ) when he thrusts forward. Adjusting the hand position to the pose would be a good start.

@Mandalorian99 @PGSPOTSTUDIOS I used everything and thats why I won.

One Question: Does maxing Magic attack increase the power of the healing from Skills by characters like Druidia `?

PGSPOTSTUDIOS 2021-02-26 05:53:59

Putting points into POW increases the effect of magic skills including healing skills, but it does not affect Special Abilities, those are fixed.
