[PS2] Valkyrie Profile: Silmeria

I got the impression that you were looking for VP1 for PSX. LOL Metro Town and two of us hunt for such a gem game.

So you have a PSP too (I dunno, there are some DIE HARD VP fans that will get the PSP game but not the handheld itself just cause)?

Honestly I only got VP1 last Xmas.

How ya doing, buddy?

Maybe because Alicia and Rufus might not have as strong base ATT points as Adonis (is he a heavy hitter type?) therefore the changes are more pronounced. It's like having 100 HP added to a level 1 character would put it at 200 HP, but if you add 100 HP to say a level 50 character, it would be like 5000 HP to 5100 HP; this isn't much of a change.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Woot, I'm probably half way through chapter 5. I just defeated

Spoiler:

Odin, which wasn't too bad. I think fighting Bramhs, optionally in VP1 was tougher, but I actually managed to kill him in that one!

Oh...about the King of Dipan...

Spoiler:

So all along he knew Alicia was actually not dead but escaped, and he pretended to play dumb to try to hide the work of the 3 mages?

FELIPE NO

So, I've heard a lot of this Adonis guy. Where do I get him? I got the Xhenos mage dude.

Later on in Chapter 5:

Is it possible to go back to the world map once you've reached Yggrasil?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

So you got through chatper 5 well?

What level are you at? I replaced one of the female sword fighters with Alicia, the Einherjar was too weak and basically replaced her.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Crawsus Ruins, I guess he didn't show up this time in this current game.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm into Valhalla. Damn, is this the most beautiful dungeon you've ever seen, or is this the most beautiful dungeon you've ever seen?

LOL

Arngrim:

Why is it that he's laying around by the steps, just basically having a nice snooze and probably pitching a tent at the thought of Freya, but when he joins your party, there's still monsters running around.

"OKAY, I think I'll just lay down and take a rest, despite this place crawling with monsters".

Doesn't it just break your heart when you have to fight the Aesir female hotties in Valhalla? Man, I rarely do any Soul Break on them. WHY OH WHY DO THEY HAVE TO BE ENEMIES ;___;...

And for those of you who are still unsure which game to start with, think of it this way:

If you were to play VP2 first, then it really wouldn't be a problem. It's almost like watching Episode 1,2, and 3 of Star Wars first before ever watching 4,5, and 6. You can watch either trilogies first, because it all works out in the end. Although the "NO, I AM YOUR FATHER" bit wouldn't be as impacting if you were to watch them according to the Star Wars timeline, ie, 1 through to 6.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Or as russ as suggested,

Angrim later on:

Arngrim was on the Valkyrie's side prior to rejoining the group in Valhalla, and now since he's joined up with the "intruders", the sentry have viewed him as an enemy as well.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Yes, I think the Einherjars you get for any new game are random. I keep hearing this Adonis guy, but I don't have him in my party, and I searched his "home dungeon" twice to be sure.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Hey, you know what I missed out on since reading the first few posts of this thread? Object reading. Was this action only preformed in the cutscenes to locate the dragon orb, or were there actual items you could get Alicia/Silmberia to check up on? Perhaps it was only those blue "help/tutorial" spheres. ;__;

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

You get tons of green items in chapter 5, don't you worry.

FELIPE NO

Looks like I'm stuck in the Hall of Valhalla.

I'm 93% done the map, however there's one seal left that I have to pass, and it's with a jar that's sitting in the middle of the hallway. If I move it, it slides back to it's original spot horizontally. There is only one of them. I've neutralized the other two seals, and this is the last one. How do I go about doing this?

Most amazing jew boots

Thank you very much, I have missed that "jar", which I got that term from Gamefaqs, which it's explanation did not help me at all initially. Again, thank you.

How ya doing, buddy?

I have just started chapter 6.

Spoiler:

Are Hrist and Brahms good characters to use? I find Hrist lacking in attack power, even if I equip her with the Valkyrie Favor, and Brahms cannot have any other weapons besides gauntlets, which hinders his true fighting potential.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Do you have the toughness skill? It doubles up your max HP during battles and takes 5 points of skill, but it's easy to learn.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Kurado, you should mind as well get them to 45, especially Dylan and Lezard, you'll see why after chapter 3. Read through Scarletdeath and my posts for the prime levelling up spot in Palace of the Venerated Dragon.

In a nutshell, here's the most ideal spot Scarletdeath and I have used thus far in the game:

Palace of the Venerated Dragon --> Halo Stone --> 3 rooms westward --> attack giant enemy crab for massive experience.

Make sure you have the Share All EXP sealstone and the double EXP sealstone equipped. This way you don't get any money, which really shouldn't be a bother, but your non-combatative Einherjar will also get experience. You get the Share All EXP early in the Palace, while the double EXP sealstone in the Chateau Obsession.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Well then, I better start getting to work for that thing, if I want to stand a chance in Sepheric Gate. How long would it take to get 30,000 of crystals and what is the most fastest and efficient way of doing so? I doubt this happening before I would probably get my hands on FFXII.

Furthermore, a few questions on the Sepheric Gate, since I've never achieved said level in the original Valkyrie Profile.

1) Once you go in, can you ever return to Midgard and or Asgard?

2) At what point can you enter Sepheric Gate? Is it once you've beaten the final boss of the game?

3) How does one simply walk into Mordor the Sepheric Gate?

I was speaking idiomatically.

After reading that, I really can't care if Final Fantasy XII is delayed for now actually. How much time has elapsed on your game timer? Does it go over 99 hours 59 minutes?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I think it was only that I got to the last dungeon in chapter 6, that I realized I could actually pull the camera towards to group for a tight angle shot for a chase camera, which looked very cool, yet it's difficult to navigate with such a low camera angle. As for crystals, I'm thinking of going back to the Palace of the Venerated Dragon, there I will be able to not kill the Dragon in one hit, but rather "play" with the dragon and juggle him in the air for a bit. Either that or I downgrade my weapons for a not-so-instant kill.

FELIPE NO

Speaking of the Ravine Caverns, how do I get back there? Is it alright to go into the elven forest and get through that stone wall again? Will there be any bad effects for this? As well, I doubt that we'll have a time limit again for that stage?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The entrace/exit of Asgard (where the save point and merchant) leads to Midgard, which was where the original exit of Bitfrost was. So therefore I take it that you enter through the stone wall.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm going through the Ravine again and now I'm remember why I hate this place. It seems pretty straightforward at first, however I'm still wanting to get that "reduce dmg to 1/4" sealstone. I've got about 81% of the map done, but I'm just cyrstalizing the goons rather than fighting them for now, due to the sealstone.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I was supposed to release the Einherjar in chapter 5 for the optimal effect? Oh shit.

Give me examples of "best possible gears", does this also include accessories? I still have most of my einherjar ready to be released, but not yet.

How ya doing, buddy?
