General Tales of Destiny (PS2) Discussion

[supersonic1453]

Tales of Destiny finally came.  I'll be back in three days.

[stahn]

Is there a item that double the amount of exp from enemies

In original version there was something like that

[Leroy]

You can refine a Demon's Material into a Demon's Jewel.. which gives double experience, however.. any damage you take is counted as critical hits.

[supersonic1453]

What do all the defire and dewater (if I'm spelling those right) and the less obvious enhancements like share do on the Swordian device, and good job on those faqs Leroy.  They are incredibly useful.

[Leroy]

The De- enhancements reduce casting time for that particular element. Defire reduces casting of fire magic. Stahn has Heavy which increases the stagger effect from his attacks (or decreases stagger from incoming attacks.. I can't remember), Rutee has Share which gives her some HP whenever she uses healing magic. Any other unobvious ones?

And thanks. I still have to put the food, armor and weapon lists in a text format.. but I'm focusing on working on the Tales of Destiny 2 stuff right now.

[supersonic1453]

What does Distort (I think) do?

[Leroy]

Shortens stagger from magic attacks.

[stahn]

So I finnaly got Leon doll and great lv right now I'am in secret dungeon man it's so cool I got myself to 6 flor and fight cool looking guy with blue sword I kinda known that barbarosa is on the last flor but how many flor is there and could anyone tell me the code to the travler HUT pleas thz

[supersonic1453]

I think there's 10 floors and there's a topic about the codes on gamefaqs.  Someone put the code generator in there so you can use that.  I also don't think that extras are really spoilers but it's better to be safe.

You know I was thinking,  the end result of ToD2 was that the events in ToD2 never happened right?  So how would Judas go about sticking Chaltier into the Eye of Atamoni at the end of  ToD / after the final Barbatos fight in ToD2?

Also, what do Bless and Rescue do?  I have some idea for Rescue, but I'm not sure if it's for the party or Philia.

[stahn]

Hmm....  good point

and i didn't known that on gamefaq is some think like that because I rather wont to discover as much as I can myself and when I got enough I look the gamefaq but thz

[Leroy]

Bless increases stagger from magic attacks.
Rescue occasionally restores HP when near death.

The bonus dungeon is a pain in the ass, it's yet more "rely on one specific element weakness" crap. The worst part is that there's no null attacks, even standard attacks have attributes (slash, blow, shot and sonic) and every enemy in there is strong against EVERYTHING except one thing so you basically end up relying on a single character or a single move. Yawn.

[supersonic1453]

If I were to equip two Defires or two Gains on Stahn, do the effects stack in that Fire spells would come out even faster and I would get more HP per kill with Gain?

[Leroy]

Yeah, all the disc effect stack.

I finally got Stahn enough points to equip all his effects at level 108.

[supersonic1453]

Why does Leon have no Rise effect?  It's really annoying to shift through all the max CCs to get to a high number just to do something cool.

I'm kind of liking the way the story was originally so far.  Why were Rutee and Mary on the Draconis at the beginning of the game?

[chingi1]

Im pretty sure they said they were in there in the original, but you just never actually saw them. Or am I making this up?!?!?

[supersonic1453]

No, I'm playing through the original as I go through the new one.  The first time you see Mary is when you run into her at Janos.
