Actually, it's "Field-on enemy" in the japanese version. In the western version it's called: "Foedus obrepit errabundus" (which is latin for "the vile, wandering one sneaks up."). The game even says so when you first met one.

[@ketto3268]

Really late comment on this! I think that's for the EU version of the game. In the US version, it's something along the lines of "Formido Oppugnatura Exsequens" or something like that.

[@TheLycanDragon]

@@Aevum13th @Connor Smith I would recommend looking up a KZbinr named Etanks (profile picture is a black E in a blue square) who is running his own Etrian D&D campaign. I think he executes it very well. Because it's difficult to constantly track FOEs, it's easier to do it by having them respond to certain triggers rather than be constantly active. I personally do mapping by mapping the walls and floors myself, and leaving my players to note down the icons (which I recreated on Roll20 and set them as tokens)

[@holschermarc]

Actually my best friend is currently streaming EO1 for a group of friends where everyone of them takes controll over 1 Party Member. They kinda play it like a DnD were every action is decided by their respectiv player. If u pissed of the Healer ofr example he might just not heal u. Its pretty cool.

[@PHEEliNUX]

Having recently finished the Vanilla EO2 to compare it to the remake. In hindsight this video is fucking genius. Especially the corner one, There are so many times I got ambushed by an FOE because you don't have many of the luxuries in the newer games like moving the camera around to better see the corner. Limited rendering and how some FOEs take some time for their orange ball to appear, means you can step right ahead into one or close to it. No idea how worse they are in the first EO1, though.

[@holschermarc]

Well i cant compare them to EO2 but in EO1 there were most of the Time Jumpscares u could avoid if u payed attention to ur surrounding. But there were a few really evil ambush spawns that appeared behind u asking u if u got a Warp Wire - because if not there was literally no way to survive that shit. U could normally take them on a while after u met them for the first time. In the second Stratum u could actually take on all FOEs immediatly if u built ur Party smart even though after every fight u probably had to go back immediatly to rest. Except the Moas - those take a while normaly until u can best them.

[@vgmaster20000]

It's an item. "Warp Wire" aka "Ariadne Thread" It lets you escape the dungeon floor and warp back to town. It cannot be used during battle. So you can use it when you're in danger and the level exit is pretty far away. There are also times when you'll be completely trapped by FOE(s). So using the wires (or possibly another item) can help you to avoid being forced into FOE battles like that. Unfortunately for these adventurers, they forgot their warp wires!

@MissingnoTheGreat In the original Japanese manual, "FOE" is humorously elaborated as meaning "Field-On Enemy"; they appear as glowing orange spheres that only turn into the monster they represent when the party closes to melee range. The English version elaborates this into the Latin "Formido Oppugnatura Exsequens" (roughly, "ancient and terrible nature warriors"). Continuing the joke, their background music track is entitled "Foedus Obrepit Errabundus" ("the vile, wandering one sneaks up")
