Do you have any tips to share with the rest of us Metaphor fans? Let us know here in the comments! - Ian

Everytime you come across a crystal that spawns enemies in a dungeon, don't break it right away. Switch to mage and kill a ton of enemies. They should die without entering battle and each kill restored your teams MP a bit. Its basically a free full MP restore. It's a lot faster than having to reenter areas to spawn weak enemies

Thank you. MP/SP recovery is the most important thing in Atlus RPGs

Crystal equals grind time

@dean170 Ай бұрын

You can also use them with the merchant archetype and get a shit load of gold. I farmed the martira dungeon for around an hour and came out with about 300k gold. 250k from farming and 50k from item drops

@dean170 Ай бұрын

So expanding on the gold farm tip. When you find a melancholic crystal that spawns mobs in any dungeon you can actually use those to farm a shit load of gold/mag/ and exp. I did it for about an hr last night in the martira dungeon and came out with 4-5 levels, maxed a couple archetypes and 250k gold not including the items sold which produced around another 50k

Also game companies like Atlus send influencers and media outlets essentially prewritten articles full of talking points and game tips unordered to make sure they control what the gaming press is saying. The lazier writers just copy and paste with a few words changed here and there to avoid getting caught by plagiarism allegations. If companies/influences don't play nice, they don't get review copies of future games, meaning they lose out on money and attention as viewers look elsewhere. Cool industry, very normal.

@tji7046 Ай бұрын

You know.. most of these articles are the same because they're all good tips.. but you're right here, this literally is copy and paste

@nightcatarts Ай бұрын

@@BrienBoru Plagiarism isn't an issue with press releases, but a channel can't simply copy marketing without marking it very clear that's what's going on, at least in the EU (and those rules were copied into UK law). Undeclared sponsorship & so on is something they clamped down on hard a while back, & you don't need to have received monetary recompense for it to count as sponsored content. In the US there's basically no consumer protection so anyone can pretty much do whatever they want, but they can get caught out too if their content is viewed overseas & deemed to be misleading.

Consumables and Money are a much more critical thing in this game compared to Persona 3 Reload and especially Persona 5 Royal. I did not know about Gallica's scan being able to tell the difference between mimic chests and regular ones. I just did Abandoned Tomb and that would have been real helpful to know beforehand. Oof!

@Sorcerer86pt Ай бұрын

Well the only diff is that you get the bonus of a fight against a annoying enemies, not strong, just annoying

@TeQxktcg Ай бұрын

Don’t fret it; either play the entire game with a step-by-step guide to guarantee you get everything, or, recommended, simply make the best possible decisions, maintaining a rolling save can help with this a lot. Don’t succumb to FOMO and keep restarting, this will only burn and bore you out; there’s always new game+ to clean up your act, by the time you’ve reached this you’ll likely appreciate the restart far more than you do now. Dealing with FOMO is a live skill nowadays, overcoming it throughout Metaphor is low risk yet high reward (character growth). Edit: same goes for consumables, use them, saving them indefinitely is just another expression of FOMO. If you want to optimise your first month you want to clear the story dungeon immediately and entirely as this will open up bonding with party members; 6 Fire Fangs (150 fire to all) strategically placed at barely level 17 (healer, warrior, mage) allowed me to 3-turn the Necromancer with minimal MP at hand.

@nathancroft Ай бұрын

I don't really want any spoilers here, but is there any downside to me doing the first proper dungeon in Grand Trad (the necromancer one) in the first few days, or should I drag it out to close to the deadline before finishing it, allowing me to do more other things around town etc?

@Noblemartel Ай бұрын

Do it asap. There’s no downsides to doing it immediately and it allows you to start raising your party members follower ranks sooner

@Dimencia Ай бұрын

I prefer to do side missions and grind some side dungeons first, so by the time you actually go in, most of the enemies can be beaten in overworld combat, otherwise you'll probably end up going back and resting multiple times before you finish it, wasting some precious days you could have spent on your virtues or followers But it's the same tradeoff on every story mission with a time limit like that, so you can try it one way or the other and pick the one you like best

@Sorcerer86pt Ай бұрын

Other dungeons, yeah. This is the anti-persona where it's recommended to do dungeon first. Due to the job system and tighter money and consumables, except the first dungeon, I try to do the side missions and side dungeons first then the main one, and even then I end up starting them 7 days or more remaining on clock
