Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - equipment (Part 1)

-
In this game, you're usually asked to deploy 6 characters most of the time. Since it's quite normal, and acceptable, to have injury(ies) sometimes, it's strongly advisable to have more have more than 6 characters in your party. Ideally, you should have at least an extra character for each "role". For example, I have three healers: Lana, Virgil and Yates. I deploy two of them in each combat and if one of them injured, I'll have the third one to replay them in the next combat.

There's a possibility of both healers injured but so far, I can't recall having this issue. Even if I did, the easiest way to solve it is to simply turn a character, who has either mastered or unlocked most abilities in the appropriate class, into a healer temporarily e.g. Sorcerer/Alchemyst -> Mender/Alchemyst. The safest is, of course, to have an extra for each character i.e. 12 characters.

The 6 characters that you deploy in combat will earn both experience points ("XP") and ability points ("AP"). The benched characters will earn a small amount of AP. Therefore it's advantageous to ensure that their primary classes are those that you want to get a passive or counter from (i.e. outside of that character's chosen primary and seconday classes) or at least to get the bonus stats from mastering the class.

For example, I aimed to build Katja as Bounty Hunter/Warmage but one of the chosen passives, Dual Wield, comes from the Assassin class. So when she was benched, I changed her primary class to Assassin to earn AP to eventually unlock that passive. I still stick to Assassin when she's benched so that she can master that class to receive the bonus stats of ATK+5, SPD+6 and Crit+2, which are great for her build.

The annoying part is when I want to use her in combat: trying to remember which equipments she's supposed to have. It is not as easy as it seems because an equipment can be used by multiple characters and there are many considerations in allocating them. Sometimes I remembered which ones and why but sometimes I forgot and later remembered.

In my previous run, I jotted down everything in a notepad. This time, I took a video of it:



Much easier hehehe.

This was right after the second Tournament and before I attempted Ancient Path.

Here's another, after finishing Screwworm Swamp. Crafted a couple of items:



Edit: Mernix's Malice passive was incorrectly chosen. It should had been Permanance.

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 1)

Here are the character builds for my current run (with the help of Ban): Kyrie Fellblade/Marked Counter: Slow Secondary passives: Execute, Life Font Fellblade itself is a good class because of the various conditions it can inflict and most importantly they can inflict Sleep. Iirc, the only other human class that can do this is Gadgeteer. Their passive Malice increases the chance of landing it by 10%. Fellblade pairs well with Marked because both use ATK and MND in their offensive abilities. Also, Fellblade's abilities are mostly short range whereas Marked has some long range abilities. Execute for more damage. Life Font is for suvivability. Ban opined that with two healers, there's no need for Life Font but I discover that it enables Kyrie to survive just enough for a healer to heal her up, after having received massive damage. Ban advocated for Marked/Fellblade for superior Speed (1.00 vs 0.92) and defense (heavy armor). I resisted this for a long time because I ...

(continue from Part 1 ) Yates Anatomist/Wizard Counter: Cripple Secondary passives: Blessed One, Smart Casting Anatomist is the best healer in game due to the passive Legendary Healer, which also then boost the amount of self-healing by Blessed One. Although Ban thinks Anatomist's Dark spells are sufficient in dealing damage and so he suggests Alchemyst as Yate's secondary class, I choose Wizard for the following reasons: Quite often, demonic creatures have Dark immunity and other creatures have immunity to other elements. So having Dark, Water, Fire, Earth and Thunder spells enable Yates to cast the most suitable spell, especially when the enemies are vulnerable to certain elements. Flexible casting :) Smart Casting is useful so that I don't need to worry much about the positioning of the enemies relative to my other characters when using Mass Healing and the area effect damage spells. As stated in previous post , there "are so many devastating Skill ba...

Sudden lower body pain

About two weeks ago, my mum developed pain in her pelvic bone, much more on the right side, and squeezing pain in her legs, with occassional spike in pain. She was managing it with paracetamols, 2 tabs three times daily.  Since we didn't know any particular orthopedist in private hospitals (it was only recently that I remember Dr Prashant ), I targeted one at KPJ Penang Specialist Hospital since it's in mainland Penang (instead of on the island). I made appointment for my mum with Dr Joehaimey since he has the earliest suitable date. The moment she walked through his door, he immediately asked her whether the pain from her right side. We were both quite impressed. He was in turn impressed with mum's prepared list of medication that she presented to him on a piece of paper. The key information seems to be the surgery she had back in 2011 to insert titanium plate and screws in her lower spine. He guessed that there's accumalated wear and tear due to aging. So to confirm i...
