AGGGH!! I haven't been able to play for like 3 days! This weekend is Heropon central. Also, at some point I need to rebuild this damn colony 6 so I can make me some good gems.

Colony 6 would be my priority. Namely so you can get the portable gem crafter. Also, you can head back into the Ether Mine and mine gems equal to one level over the level of Colony 6's Nature. So it's a VERY good place to do endgame!

Also, where are you in the story? Eryth?



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I clarified to someone how to properly pull of a Skillchain with the intention to deal damage. I think its worth pointing out in here too, since there will be, undoubtetly, people who may not be aware of this, due to beeing at the beginning of this game;

The important thing is, imo, to keep the multiplier up. this can be done even if yer change the Color. (3 Strikes of category Red for example would set the multiplier to 3...  while staggering, meaning pink-green-yellow, wouldnt, since you change the skill's category with every different color.)
meaning: Attack Red (MP red: 1) -> Attack Red (MP red2) -> Attack Red (MP red3) and so on... when now choosing a green colored skill as follow-up, the counter would fall back to 1! .. you can prevent this by using "Grey" Skills inbetween changing colors, like this; Attack Red (MP red: 1) -> Attack Red (MP red2) -> Attack Red (MP red3) -> Monadolololol (MP Grey 4) -> Attack Green (MP Green 5) since Grey is "compatible" with any color and will eventually convert Red(or else) into green(or else.. the benefit is that the damage increases, the higher the number is.



I'm a Foreigner, and as such, i am grateful for everyone pointing out any mistakes in my english posted above - only this way i'll be able to improve. thank you!

Yes, pretty much this. You forgot to mention 2 things, though:

1. Max. multiplier is 5 times.

2. You can do a chain attack with higher strengths and with more links if the affinity between the characters is strong. Also, some characters will always do better than others, so Shulk and Dunban will be better than Riki and Reyn, for example.

 

Also, all Arts ignore resist, so you can topple enemies you couldn't normally.

 

But good explanation!

You think so? its common for me to fuck up explaining things in english, which is why i made the following right now;

But well, its cool if it isn't necessary. XD

And thanks for adding to it, those facts sure come in handy for some, i wonder why i forgot to mention those points in the first place, but oh well.

Yep, that's pretty close to what you said. And yes, that's right, for the most part!

Sweet mother of god Fior has maybe the best chain special attack in the game :-O she does huge damage to mechon.

I will try to finish this game this weekend, altough I have to learn :/



Hated the Heropon so much that I never even used him.

And yes, she does. What a pro. It's changable, depending on leg-gear, you know!

I had to work all day and my batteries are almost depleted(thank you Wii) and I hadn´t any spare ones so I stole the remote batteries from my sister but they are almost depleted as well :/

Right now I´am at mechonis halls, Halls of the Mechonis don´t how this place is called in English. And i just fought the Terminator, um I meant Gadolt for the first time pretty easy fight again. And I love Fiora she kills Mechon like little puppies espacially with her Virus attack.
