Very nice! I like making Emma practically a no delay arts user, dealing 25k+ damage with base spells only to be her turn again and again. It’s nasty!

[@advmx3]

Laura is the Slayer in this series. Every single game you just need to do the correct combination of quartz and she's invincible. CS4 makes her the most broken character, she becomes even stronger than her father, there are a specific master quartz that gives almost 25cp every turn for her with the correct accessories added, put that, a lot of SR quartz that adds to her strenght and her own Brave order, and she can destroy anything in less than a few turns XD

[@Kernviter]

Gaius, Millium, and Rean are all better at deleting stuff than she is (especially in CS4)

[@arclight7892]

Who needs crafts when mages like emma and musse can spam chrono burst and nuke things without wasting cp and replenish their arts bar with titania master quartz plus aethiric arts order.

[@xSilentZeroXx]

@@Kernviter Well, Millium is actually pretty terrible (downright unplayable, even) in CS4, but yeah.

[@dave9515]

@@arclight7892 Rean was the best mage in CS4 and CS3 pushes you towards making him a mage towards the end of chapter 3. They give you a pyre and epoch bell back to back. That was no crazy coincidence. his link abilities don't synergize with his kit at all and he is too fast to have fun with his gimmick nor does he have something to feed him CP like Rage or even counter attacks and he has worse deadly and lethal assists. He is either a tank or casting arts at lightspeed nuking to oblivion. Its not until Reverie that his gimmick feels functional and only on abyss mode.

I'm still doing similar things in Hajimari. I have her equipped Domination& True Domination both. Normally I put her in the support.

This is material for my heart.

Including the fact Fie can become as reliable as Emma as an Arts Caster for absolutely no reason... XD... _(We need more of it for Sen II, III and IV, please.

[@drowningin]

I'm almost done with sky trilogy. I play the games on normal. Are any of the Crossbell, or cold steel games super easy? Are there any I should play at higher difficulty? I want to die to a few bosses, or close to it.

[@terminallycapricious3189]

Personally speaking, I've played both the Crossbell Duology and the Cold Steel Saga on Nightmare and didn't really have much of a problem save for a very small number of bossfights per game. And that's also without fully cheesing the game. A bit of cheese? Sure, or I'd probably get demolished-Unlike in Sky where having a fighting chance is difficult even on Normal. But that's just me-In short, I do believe they're quite easy due to all of the mechanics each game introduces, it's mostly a matter of mastering said mechanics. Edit: This includes the entirety of Cold Steel on Nightmare fully blind that is, and Crossbell on Hard. Regretted that, Nightmare would've been just as doable as Cold Steel is, however mildly more difficult.

[@Fusiongamer777]

You forgot to also make sure she's slow so you can stack 2 atk ups on her with Rean and make sure she's at 200CP 2 atk ups in ToCS 1 is 50% more damage, making her do 3X damage on the first hit instead Her Master quartz also gives her one of them straight up at max level if I remember correctly
