Yes. It's only disc 2 and 3.

 

 

ok.

 

you can't answer for the first guy that replies to this topic but i will still ask that question : i ask if the game was difficult, he told me it was difficult sometimes therefore he also told me that he didn't do much free level up.

As for another answer, i was told that "The game is not incredibly hard once you get to about level 10". what did he meant by that? that the game is not hard when you get to level 10, even when ennemis are of higher level than you?

 

There were two instances where I couldn't beat a certain battle with my characters at their current level, so I would usually go back and level up 4 times, and then I was fine. If you engage in a lot of battles instead of avoiding them (I didn't avoid too many, but I probably could have played more), you should be fine. I really wanted to see how the story would play out, so I hurried along to advance the story, at the cost of some extra battle time/experience. The last main quest boss was incredibly more difficult than the previous bosses, but I still managed to make it through on the first go (which was good, since it took me 37 minutes to beat it, haha).

Since you're familiar with the bonus boss, I do believe that she has an instant death attack. I haven't fought her, but I believe I read on a different forum that she has it. Here's a quote from that forum

"This is the hardest battle of the whole game, SHE IS NO JOKE!!!

It took me about 45 minutes to an hour for this battle, All 4 of my main characters were Maxed out at level 255, She has a move that sucks you towards her then the half the battle arena explodes & you cant dodge this, you`ll take about 900,000 Damage, if your not ready you`ll die in seconds, thankfully you get to swap in the other party members after all 4 die."

So, yeah, I think it's safe to say that you can expect an unfair fight. Actually, I can say with confidence to expect an unfair fight, because the preceeding 20 floor/5 hour dungeon has no save points.

Edit: I just saw your latest post

does someone have the answers to these questions :

1) does the final story boss of star ocean 4 has a "i can kill your team in one hit(or even in one attack)" attack?

2) are the battle trophies available in what is the easy level of that game or is it only for normal and higher difficulties?

1. I don't remember the final story boss having that attack.

2. Battle trophies are available on all modes, including easy.

 

 

 

1) ok, good.

2) very very very very very (add some more) good. in so 3, i did not get any battle trophies because i was stuck on the last story boss (which had a 'i kill everyone in one attack" attack) in easy so when i rebought the game, i did it on easy and finished it to 100% this time, so if i can do easy and still get battle trophies, i won't have to do it twice.

 

as for your post about the final bonus boss, you are talking about the one in so 3 or the one in so4, that is no joke?

 

i suppose they are the same anyway, i didn't check in order not to spoil me.

I'm referring to the one in Star Ocean 4, I never played 3. Being a Tri-Ace game, yeah, that's a safe assumption

 

 

yeah, knowing that (DON'T read after the (  ) if you don't want to know a little bit )(i won't spoil it for you if you want to play star ocean 3 someday (i will recommand it strongly if you liked the fourth, but you can do the third last in order if you want to play the series, as it is after all the last in the series, chronologically)

the final bonus boss of so 3 is not star ocean related, so it is of course safe to say that they can place it in any star ocean.

 

As you posted the comment "she is no joke" from the thing, i suppose you kinda know who "she" is so it's no spoil.

 

i'd be glad to wait one more month to kick her ass lol
