Every time I get to there, I have at least Tidus with his damage limit broken, so an overdrive smashes it to f*ck.

It took me a few hours to get the grasp of them as they're a bit confusing to start with. So, basically, in short. I've not really got any tips other than you eventually get used to them! And I understand that this is not at all helpful. Edited May 20, 2021 by yoda 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which skills are wo- which skills aren't worth buying? Which weapons should I focus on buying/obtaining, and what's the best way to modify them? Do I need to change the modifications based on which enemies I'm encountering? Same question for outfits. I am this far into the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am this far into the game.The sharp shot bow is an essential IMO. What other weapons you should use depend on preference but I used the normal hunter’s bow and the sharp shot as standard and then varied between the sling and either of the tripcaster or the one that shoots traps to lock down machines. A lot of the tougher machines have specific weaknesses that depend on what you’re using I think.I’ll get back to you skills wise when I can log on haha. I think you can unlock them all relatively quickly though. Just go with whatever looks good to you I think it depends on playtime. IIRC I think tearblast ammo is the harder to acquire but is good shit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My quests are taking me to places where people with stupid names say more people with stupid names have done something and something's going on but by the time I get to another one I don't remember who/what any of them are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it was difficult to follow at all. Broadly 3/4s of the way through you learn what destroyed the planet but the rest is pretty simple to get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm following the plot fine, it's all the additional characters/tribes/gameplay things that usually trip me up in open world games. I got as far as Caldrons and Corrupted Zones last night and with everything new I'm just throwing myself into them and hoping I don't die. I think my problem isn't so much that I'm struggling to follow it, I just feel as if I've missed something prominent gameplay-wise. I'm sure I'll get there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reminded me of The Witcher a bit in that there's the option there to make the combat deeper by planning your fights ahead of time and taking your time but I didn't have any trouble brute forcing most of the game's enemy and winning everything in a battle of attrition. Which is probably a shite way to play but it wasn't difficult to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also discovered the arrows that explode and blow bits of armour off, that was cool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Yeah the combat and the weapons took me a while to get used to. All of a sudden it just clicked though. I think the combat is some of the most fun I've had in a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Today's question is "how do I go anywhere on the map when these big birdy c***s many levels above me won't leave me alone?" It's a good thing the combat is good otherwise going places would get very tedious very quick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have much else to go on than that, the thing about it being mainly based on the bridge of the ship was the thing I remember. Fairly recently released. Ring any bells? R-Type.
