Together RPG - SRPG Shining Force 2

[TheSSNintendo]

Damn that chessboard fight was hard.

I didn't even bother to kill all the enemies - I went right for the king. Taking him down ended the battle.

Just had Janet join the force. My party is now full of hotties.

Too bad Janet is one of the weaker characters in the game.

She's been in the battle party ever since I got her. Right now I just got past the part where you fight a battle with those Prism Flowers.

[BoneSnapDeez]

Yeah I like Janet too. Long range attacks. Decent enough defense. Great hair.

Defeated Zalbard.

What a bastard.

Got some new characters - tossed 'em in the caravan.

Saved at the beginning of an overworld/desert battle.

Oh, and I have the aura spell now. Totally boss.

I always level and use all my characters in ny playthroughs. Some of the characters you get late are powerful.

The problem is that most of the new characters are just like the ones I already have, but worse because they're so underleveled. Like, I just got Skreech who basically seems like a weaker version of Luke. Doesn't seem worth my time to level him.

However, if I do get a character who seems awesome/unique right from the start I will toss him/her in the party. This is what I did with Karna, as I realized I needed another healer.

Yeah, I never really saw the value in using later recruits, since I had already put so much time into stat boosting my earlier party members. Not much I can do to get a pre-promoted recruit to outpace one that I sunk ten extra levels of stat boosts into before promoting.

Especially since Luke is already on the weak side.

And Karna is arguably the best healer in the game. With Boost and Aura she has absolutely no problem getting to 99 before the end of the game if you want to.

[BoneSnapDeez]

I've been using aura constantly, it's ridiculous - something like 20 exp. per turn. Never used Boost though, I'll check that out.

[Jmustang1968]

Well if you level the pre promoted characters to 30 before promoting, then the others will struggle to be near as good. It somewhat breaks gamr balance doing that.

[BoneSnapDeez]

Just got Zynk.

I have three master monks now - I feel powerful.
