This was one of my favorite arcade games back in the day!

[@ShadowMoon878]

I miss playing this at the arcades, back in the late 90s/early 2000s. Playing with 4 players is very rare back then. I usually alternates between the Fighter, Mage and Elf. My friend either plays Cleric or Thief. If we get a 4 player game, it is always Fighter, Mage, Cleric and either Thief or Elf. Also, Fun Fact: Different costumes for the Elf, Magic User and Cleric means you get different spells.

@習嬤嬤挑戰1000訂閱 * All 4 players have to have >1mil EXP * One player MUST be a Magic User and have the "Staff Of Wizardry" equipped * All 4 players must be at full health (bring a Cleric or be a god at the game!) If these three conditions are fulfilled, everyone has to hit Attack+Jump+Use AT THE SAME TIME (yes, FOUR people need to synchronize!) All 4 players will go down to 1HP, and you will lose the Staff Of Wizardry, but it will kill any boss in the game, including the final one.

[@J03_M4m4]

Same for Magic user. For Syous (Black) you get Conjure Elemental and Meteor Swarm, for D'Raven (Green) you get Cloudkill and Power Word Kill

[@J03_M4m4]

@@Lenoh I've done it and there were somethings that were wrong (not saying that you were completely wrong though). Firstly, while you can do it with 4 mombers, you can already do it with 3 members. Secondly, it unfortunately doesn't one-hit kill the final boss but it takes a lot of health (around 1 bar or 1.5 bars, might be more). If you're ever unsure if you meet the requirements for Final Strike, it's very simple to check, just see if the Staff of Wizardry is glowing, if yes, then you're good to go. Also nice detail about the EXP requirement, never noticed it

I already liked this game a lot, but seeing this makes me think the game is even better. There are some crazy secrets in there, and if you can actually figure out how your wide arsenal of items, spells and attacks work, they really are tools that allow you to succeed without pumping in quarter after quarter. Not sure how anyone would figure out half that stuff in an arcade, but it does feel like the developers went the extra mile on the amount of content they put into this arcade game.

Elf looks like Deedlit. Or is it the other way around? I always found great similarity in art style between Record of Lodoss (Rhodos, really..) War and these two D&D games :)

[@catsi563]

Little bit of both id wager pretty standard elf look but Deeds a major influence on many elfen arts so

[@digitaljanus]

The D&D games came out in 1994 and 1996; Lodoss was already a big deal in Japan for years at that point, so I'm assuming the dev team was inspired by Lodoss. That said, the D&D brand management is pretty strong; all these monsters look like their entries in the Monster Manual.

[@catsi563]

@@digitaljanus Heck D&Ds older then that 1974 was when it was first published and the original run for lodoss was 1988 shortly after when the original author based it on a role play scenario hed created at the time. that said youre correct though in that it had a major influence on lodoss with a lot of the monsters and basic story structure

[@warellis]

I recall Lodoss was based on BECMI's rules. I believe Lodoss's creators did want to license Lodoss as another BECMI setting but TSR declined sadly. Would've been interesting to see if they had allowed it and whether Lodoss could've come along through the various editions.

[@michaelpf08]

Hi there, so sorry to get back to you so late, there's a trick for all characters to use thunder kill the red dragon or Synn for instant. there's a calculate formular in the game, which means, you attacking Red Dragon and Synn 3 hits, then the 4th's hit will suddenly leading the huge dragon into a special situation, which is the damages caused by LB was adding up. Of course, by the time you'll be able to fight the red dragon and Synn, the character's Level already up to a certain level, for example, magic user at that that already up to Level 18. On top of that, he had to have the green earring to increase the power of the magic. So the damage of magic user just use LB are 36, But magic use us the LB magic will do 14 parts of damages to the Red Dragon and Synn, The first part's first hit are 45, the formulater is 36 x 1.25, the second part are 55, so the formulor are 45 x 1.25, but, once you on top of that have the staff of LB, will increaing more powers, so, short in one sentence: 3Hits+ LB, make sure your have the earring, will causing the huge damages for Red Dragon and Synn. Elf's 3 hits attack, we can use: A+→A+↓↘→A to do the first 3 hits, then use LB(make sure you have earrings on you, if you have Staff of LB even better), Thief and Fighter are better use AAA+ring of LB, Dwarf use →A(can beat the dragons 3 hits already)+ ring of LB, magic user can use A+→A+A, then LB. Really needs a lot of practices, once you get used to it, it's going to be super easy. Hopefully I made everything clear to you :) wish you success!
