Btw, Congrats on beating the game! That is pretty impressive. Most peole complaint it being too hard. Was you be able to beat the Tale Memory

Yes, I saw all the difficulty complaints in the ArmorGames comments, and I tried to offer them a hint on the triple-Yeti level, which was their main complaint. (My ArmorGames username is Ultimatum479.) I, well, I guess I tend to be exceptionally good at pretty much any type of game aside from FPSs, so yeah, I beat it, including all the Holy Egg bosses. I can see powerful combos in character-building games pretty easily, so from the moment I got Death and learned how Soul Bond worked I pretty much crushed the rest of the levels with a Soul Bonded Fool. His Rod Twirl is godlike when he has Death's Power, Agility, and Vampirism comboed with his own Essence of Slyness. Since Death doesn't need to be on the field for Soul Bond's effect to persist, I'd cast a Soul Ritual and summon the Priestess to stack heals on top of the Fool's now-incredible HP-leeching, and bam, I had a nigh-unkillable, monstrously strong meatshield from behind which Gelyan, Sisi and the Magician could crush things with their incredibly high Power, Magic, and Magic, respectively.In fact, I'd probably suggest that you balance Soul Bond by making its effect fade when Death leaves the battlefield due to dismissal/Soulburst/defeat so I can't pull that kind of broken crap again. :D I really love finding awesome combos in games, especially ones with intricate systems such as Ge.Ne.Sis', but that combo of dismissing him and replacing him with the Priestess to stack heals on the HP-leecher doesn't quite make all that much sense. If Soul Bond could take effect even if Death were too injured to join the battle, then he could just cast it from off the field.By the way, explaining how Energy works in the opening tutorial in a little more detail would probably be helpful. It took me about two fights to realize Energy was being regained based on the Magic stat of non-Tarot characters and was shared between all characters; most people who aren't as skilled at tactics games may take far longer and be frustrated with the seemingly-random fluctuations of their Energy totals. Other than that, both Nera's and Sisi's tutorials are quite good. (Gelyan doesn't have much of one since he doesn't come with a Tar

I has played this game so many time but never found out you could buff up the Fool like that. It is true that the Rod TWirl ability damage increase at much higher rate with extra Power than other abilities tho (because Fool has such low base power). May be I should nerf Soul Bond a bit and make the draw-back more prominent. Did you beat Tale Memory with this combo too? Even Fool take such high damage from White attack? Yeah, you are right. I should add a note about how energy work somewhere in early in the game on next update. One more thing to put on the l

If you're going to nerf it, try to do so in a way that doesn't make it feel any less awesome. Perhaps just a higher Energy cost? Its current 8 Energy cost is extremely low for such a potent effect; it'd probably be better at 12.And no, I used Nera as my tank on the Tale instead of the Fool. I'd maxed her Agility, so her dodge chance was exceptional, and Moon Waltz helped out tons as well. Sisi supplied 28 Energy per round singlehandedly so there was no problem with using Moon Waltz every single action. Gelyan's Armor Crusher, the Fool's Lightning Rod, and the Magician's and Emi's assorted spells supplied most of the damage whenever I was too busy healing with Moon Waltz to use Nera's attacks. Sometimes I switched the Magician in to tank for her for a couple of rounds as well, since his Resist is amazing and he's not weak against White.As for the Energy thing, you can make a brief note of Energy being shared during the escape-from-the-Rabeans part. I think it'd work well th

On that note, I think I'm going to go back later and try to beat Reciful. It's probably doable if you do small amounts of damage at a time so that the reflection doesn't crush you, or if you only use field abilities. Before I waste my time trying, could you tell me if you made it so that you can't beat him, like he doesn't actually die at 0 HP or someth

QUOTE (EternalLurker @ Oct 18 2009, 05:02 AM) quotecThe physical attack tear him apart, but thankfully not in one round, so I just switch him back out for Nera when he's done his part. He's only meant to delay things for about a round or two anyway. Gelyan is probably the best tank by far, even one with no points in Endurance at all (like mine) since a Soul Bonded Gelyan heals himself massively with Armor Crusher, but I always feel kinda lame putting such an awesome sniper on the front lines. /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />On that note, I think I'm going to go back later and try to beat Reciful.

You are welcomed to try if you really want a challenge but I couldnt do it myself. I coded it so that if he is beaten the battle will end and he will use an especial attack to defeat your party tho, so It doesn't really change the st

It must take you forever to pump her strength to 40 tho O__OQuoteEndQuoteEEndit can take a bit yea, but at 10 blessing is 2 power so its not that badi was considering finding a map, clearing it short of a melee and hiding her in a corner behind the priestess and nera, pumping her power and using broken fire to lower their fire resist, then soulbursting both tarots, summoning the magician and using it, see if i can break 50k, but sadly the best place to attempt that is the 2nd time u fight the beholderyea its an interesting path, kiss will geneally do more damage in a pure magic build if they all hit, but if you pump her a bit she will outdamage nera's waltz at 20-25 power, the other perk is that you can life leechimo in the 2nd game throw in a way for her to convert power to magic like nera does magic to power, right now the best she has is rainbow blood which is unnattainable and overall almost not worth the cost of 3 magic, you have my e-mail, the bug i mentioned with the divine breath in an earlyer e-mail would let you pump 4 more into strength, or even more if you use it after equipping the perkquoteo(post=109:date=Oct 19 2009, 11:53 PM:name=An)QUOTE (An @ Oct 19 2009, 11:53 PM) quotecWell, it takes forever to beat the Tale Memory, so there's more than enough time to do that.QuoteEndQuoteEEndsoulbursted:DeathHanged ManLovers - more black damageNera:P:5-->7E:4M:17S:20Perks: Enchanting Rhyme Absolute Authorityaccidentally bugged them in,used divine breath after equipping both, reported the bug in an e-mail5 turns 2x waltz+3xballad=~15k each = 45kSisiP:5E:3M:28-->34S:10Perks:Both Souls for that extra 6 magic and piercing2 turns both tornados, start at 8k each ramp up to ~10-12k each= 16-24k Gely:P: 23-->25E: 9M:6S: 9Perks:Sniper sense and eagle eye, yes he got bugged too, i did them both at the same time noticed later2 turns, after the lovers his armor crusher hits for 12k a turn=24kI usually soul pact the fool so he does ~ 8k a turn, priestess is healing every turn for sisi's power, nera is self sustaining for HP and gely leeches all his w/ the fool, emi and the magician are mana batteries, the magician's high resist keeps him up w/ the priestess's regen, and emi might need a heal~85k a turn4 turn setup4-5turn kill consisantly, prolly 6 w/o bugs, her power never breaks 20, since death is the final one i b
