Figures.

Well, I only need a few so I suppose it's not too bad.

It's the Xe-Dom Golden Crests that will take time.

That said though, I did find the Sedirs a lot easier to deal with then the Xe-doms. The fact that most Quovas will ignore you if you're a high enough level is another bonus when farming.

I do lots of stuff. The real question is am I any good at that stuff.

I'm not having too much trouble with the Xe-Doms to be honest (Aw yeah! Ares 90!), but it's just that I kill so many and it still takes forever to collect the Crests. I've only just gotten enough for the Silvers, and I only have 4 golden crests. Fortunately, I'm in an area where there are two of the right kind of Xe-Doms for Golden Crests close to each other, so even if it takes a while, it should go faster then it would with the Silvers, because I can be fighting two of them every few minutes.

It's still annoying to kill three or four enemies and not get what I want. Farming is a real bitch I tell you.

I also still need Reward Tickets so I can buy the final materials as well, and that's gonna take even long since I'll need enough for two Skells.

The only time reward tickets have let me down was when I didn't have a proper net connection at my place. On the other hand, I can no beat some of those time attack boss at so absolutely insane speeds. XD

There's nothing more satisfying than flattening the Rexoskell in 18 seconds flat. XD

I do lots of stuff. The real question is am I any good at that stuff.

Having Treasure Sensors may help for that.

Double post:

Got the last Golden Xe-Dom Crest.

Now I just gotta save up reward tickets for the final few materials, and I can make both Skells in one go.

While I'm at it, I'll farm for the materials for certain augments for both my ground and Skell units as well.

Then I'll go hunting for the final few Tyrants, take care of the field stuff I haven't done, and I'll be done (there will still be some collection quests, but those items will likely be hell to find anyway, so forget it).

Phew. Gonna feel good to take....Oh wait. Gotta finish up Rise of the Blood Lobster. Nearly forgot that dude. I suppose I'll need to check a guide to find the rest of them. I think I'm at about 38 or 39.

When you get to the fight, use the same strategy you used on Rexoskell. It'll usually work, but you gotta be quicker with Blood Lobster; he won't hesitate to use his biggest attacks immediately.

Question about the Blood Lobster, actually: Can I one-shot him with my Ares?

Only if you can find a way to squeeze the Ares into the Ganglion Antropolis.

So no. Gotta do it on foot.

Why do they do this to me?

Whatever, I'm much more competent nowadays. Got better gear, too.

Listen, if you can beat Rexoskell, you can beat the Blood Lobster. You just need to be faster.

I just scouted three Blossom Dancers and had them stomp it.

You don't even need an EBD level 60 person to do it. I was able to get by by just having a longsword with Arts: Gain TP on it and using overdrive.

Am I the only one who absolutely loathes EBDs? That's the coward's way of completing things.

While I don't really mind the EBD I like using the knife/dual guns combo more because holy crap, you can get some serious damage out of executioner.

Sure, but EBDs are a different story. For one example, whenever I do a Global Nemesis with one, they always start on foot, and since they often use that damnable skill Core Crusher (that negates damage to appendages), I literally have no use for them. I usually block those kinds of players.

I have sorta a rule about not using more than two of a given type of augment, at least. The balance already is in my favor from all the other factors in place.

I sure said that!

[up][up]That seems kind of like a dick move to block someone just because they use a build that you don't like or they won't fit your playstyle. Especially when it really doesn't matter that much.

It's more that I tend to run ticket farming runs for charitable purposes. Someone who uses a build that literally cannot smash appendages and misses the point of what I'm hosting (I do make it clear what I run through the communication channels) I have no use for. They bring it upon themselves.

I should probably finish the game

I beat the game. I'm just tying up the loose ends (beating the remaining tyrants like The ruler of fates, and the last few quests like the Blood Lobster).

It's been hard though, since I've also been playing Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE for a few weeks now.
