Fantasy Life General Thread

I've found the pets to be useless compared to the other recruitable NPCs, such as the dude in a huge black armor and Cervantes (the one's who teaching a whole lot about Mercenary). Each NPC starts with its base stats, and they increase exponentially every time you level up. The problem with the weaker NPCs is, they're never bound to outclass the initially stronger ones (not even against you) simply because of the aforementioned leveling up system. Thankfully, you can get most of the stronger NPCs by simply progressing through the main story. The Masters NPCs can be accessed by...

...reaching the corresponding job's rank into God, which is only accessible for those who bought the Origin Island DLC. Oh boy, they tend to be very strong.

The NPCs are there for those who are having trouble beating large monsters and finding anyone who owns a copy of Fantasy Life, but nothing beats the human players. It's because the latter can level up enough to be as efficient as some of the strongest NPCs in the game, and they can easily use tactics on a whim. The AI is pretty much like how Leeroy Jenkins would act. The NPCs are so concentrated on partaking the battle that they never bother dodging the enemy's attacks and then eventually end up dying often. Expect to revive them on a regular basis, even in the middle of a boss fight. I've also never seen them trying to do the same on me. You can somewhat control them by putting your weapons away, thus preventing them to aim against whatever monster that are next to them.

Haha, I've lost count of how many times I tried to avoid a battle only to have the NPC go "Attaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!"

Be an Archer suits me, I think ^_^ Now I got the three gather Lives, and am ready to continue! Definitely going to make tailor and carpenter soon too to make me some gear. Owh, and blacksmith, since a NPC asked me to make him an armor.

So much to do in this cutesy world! =D

Not anywhere in the castle when I looked and to find and speak to him is one of my quests, also I need wool to be able to make some of the iron gear items, I have checked all the shops but no one has it for sale (unless I've missed one by mistake of course)

 

[yumeria]

maybe you need to check the shop with the mmmmmmmmmm I think it's bliss ( i play in french sorry ^^) point to have more things available ?

Professor Hughes' room is near Princess Laura's room you go slightly right and downwards and there's a door and then there's his room, I stumbled across it by chance on Saturday hope this helps to reiterate it is in the outside area of the palace.

Thanks Emily. I have found that I can buy wool in the Puerto district, so have answered my other question. What a fabulous area, I just think I have been everywhere and then find a totally new area, this really is such a huge game

Has anybody selected the mercenary life? I'd like to know what it's like

 

[Jarrad]

I wonder if anybody has come across any of the passwordss

tailor for lyf 4#11

 

[LyraVale]

This thread is gonna be so handy once I get the game! Thank goodness for that "search thread" tool though.

And you guys will all be pros by then, so basically...thanks in advance for all the great tips (that don't make any sense to me right now lol)! <3

This might be a solution for those who have the DLC and want to play with people who don't have it.

For those who want to know what Origin Island looks like, check out this video (it's in French). If you want to avoid any real spoilers, you might want to stop watching at about 10:00 or so.

This game also has gifts you can receive similar to the post office in AC:NL. To get a Honey Pudding, go the post office, talk to the password clerk and input Reveria.

So far with the exception of a few plants, insects and honey, I have been hanging onto everything picked up just in case I should need it later on, what do the rest of you do?

I became a mercanary today its fairly similar to paladin tbh but if you are a paladin it is worth while to switch to mercanary and do some of the job quests as they are fairly easy once you get the hang of where most enemies are..

Has anyone been to Al Malaak (however you spell it), I unlocked it a couple of days ago but I've been too busy exploring other areas as the game is massive. I'm really impressed with the amount of area there is tbh.

 

[JCnator]

I'd say that once you get hang on how the monsters attack you and properly mastered the controls on wielding the two-handed swords, Mercenary is worth having it enabled because they input the highest damage out of the 4 hunting jobs and tend to have a lot of health as well. This is especially true when you have a Paladin, Hunter, Wizard, or any NPC with you, since the others can distract the monster while you land some big hits against it. As solo, the job is the least viable out of 4 hunting classes, considering that it takes age to swing two-handed swords and the fact there's very little time when a monster is open for attacks.

-peeks in-
Does this game have a lot of repetitive grinding/ questing?
