The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel 2- Dhyerviews
« on: August 08, 2018, 12:48:23 AM »
Notes:
1. Purpose
This is really more for my own reference than for anyone else’s use, since I have a different view of Allowed Quartz and Status Accuracy (although some of the formulations on strategy would likely be useful for anymore). There a few extra pieces of information, but the most important one is the strategy section. This section is found underneath stats for each character and will describe a handful of strategies they might feasibly employ in a duel. For more notes on this, see note 15 in this post For more standard DL views on status accuracy, Tide’s excellent topic has those numbers:

http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=6840.0

Tide's topic also has all Crafts; I cut down on some to save some space.

2. Starting CP
I actually start CP at 115. 100 seemed too low because it basically renders irrelevant most normal Crafts (can’t use the CP or lose the S-Craft) despite the fact that these crafts are often as (or more) important as the S-Craft in game. At the same time, something around 100 seemed reasonable. Any number that is close to 200 puts way too much focus on 200 CP S-Crafts. 115 effectively creates a good metric for spammability. The cheapest crafts allow for immediate use of an S-Craft after use. More expensive crafts need more CP build-up to use an S-Craft afterwards.

3. CP Gains
CP is gained by taking or receiving damage. Each enemy hit with a basic physical or arte = 10 CP gained. Each enemy hit with a craft = 5 CP gained. CP from taking a hit does vary, but standardizing it to 10 is sensible enough (without me really doing any testing).

4. Allowed Extra Quartz
I allow three types of non MQ Quartz: supporting starting spell quartz (noted by **), Damage quartz in locked element slot, and critical in game skill quartz. The critical in-game skill quartz are Impede (for those applicable) and EP Cut. Both of these are lynchpins to major strategies in game, and I wouldn’t have run a PC without either one of these (and both for some).

As is my usual for extra attack magic, I only allow the damage and not the status. I do allow the status for spells off the MQ.

I’m not allowing stat boosts or non-starting support spells because looking at the all the in-game equips for each element, there’s always going to be something useful to plug any needed gaps (Lost Arts Gems especially help here).

5. Default Equipment
Shoewear- Everyone has the same Shoes (Red Boots- 400 Def, 7 Speed, 3 Move). There are others that give mild bonuses, but 7 Speed>>>>>>Anything else the others have to offer.

6. Turn 1 Speed
I’m considering this half a turn. There is decent variance in starting CT accumulated, but half a turn works as a decent enough estimate considering that turn order in menu seems to impact starting CT.

7. Spell CT/RT
CT is the clockticks needed to cast the spell. RT is the number of clockticks needed to recover after the spell was chosen or attack/craft was used. A turn is 33.58 ticks on average (based on beginning of 1st turn to when damage on 3rd turn lands). I created a simple formula to give me when each move lands in a chain of moves (this data is included in strategy sections for each character)

8. Speed Changes
If any unit’s speed is altered, the altered speed only goes into effect after their next turn is taken (because the game only uses speed to calculate RT when an action is taken). This means that Fie’s Speed up bonus doesn’t activate until she’s acted, and Alfin inflicting both Speed Down and Delay is a bit wasted since an enemy may never actually get a turn for Speed Down to kick in!

9. Linked Attacks
I’m not factoring in Linked Attacks. Playing around with them at endgame has left me with a few questions (I’ve noticed an inconsistency in type if a PC has multiple existing attributes, and it seems like it might be possible that moves get random typing when used?). As such, no unbalance rates will be listed anywhere.

10. Evade and Accuracy-
Based on testing, I would guess
1 Dex or Agi= 1% more Accuracy or 1% more Evade
Acc%+ and Eva%+- Chance of Hitting or Evading when you otherwise would not have
(The one flaw in this is why on earth would they start Claire with Hit 2 when her weapon already has 100%+ Accuracy, but the game doesn’t list enemy Dex/Agi to test more and this is far down the list of questionable design decisions in the game)

11. Status Accuracy Calculation and Blockers
With the exception of Death, Vanish, Delay and Petrify, all statuses in CS 2 have several potential durations. Durations are generally determined by two things: enemy class and method of application. Against more difficult random enemies, status will often only last for 1 turn. For the other enemies, a status inflicted by magic lasts 1 turn longer than those inflicted by a craft (or often 2 turns longer for a stat down). For status accuracy, I have prorated the accuracy against the 1-turn status enemies and then added it together (that way I will just consider the full duration of the status in the DL). If the duration is not listed for a move, it means it follows the standard pattern listed below.

For status accuracy, I list several numbers. For crafts, I will list 3 numbers (one on the first line, two on the line below). The first number is the chance of the status hitting if the attack hits adjusting my prorations described in this topic:

http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=6760.0

The first number on the second line is the hit rate factoring in all resistances/weaknesses. The second number on the second line is (the prorated status hit rate) * (the average accuracy). This is effective the truest hit rate chance, so this is normally what I’ll be going off of. Enemies included in these averages are from the Villa to the Epilogue Dungeon. Although the non-class 7 PCs don’t face enemies before the Epilogue Dungeon, they are taken against the full run (a few reasons: 1. Technically I don’t normally count Epilogues at this point, but the Epilogue is at least only a semi Epilogue. 2. The enemies in the Epilogue are really, really bad. If the point of status prorations is to make status hit rate more closely reflect in game value, Epilogue enemies alone won’t cut it).

As I’m the only person who uses this, the numbers in the topic are really just for me (or anyone who is interested). If you want the more kosher DL view, please visit Tide’s excellent topic:

http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=6840.0

Here are the Statuses w/ Durations. There are storebought blockers for all statuses, IIRC
Poison - Lose ~10% MHP every round.
Burn - Lose ~20% MHP every round. Lasts 2 turns from a Craft and 3 from Magic
Freeze – Can’t Act + Lose ~15% MHP every round. Lasts 3 turns from a Craft and 4 from Magic
Blind - ACC and EVA - 50%. Lasts 3 turns from a Craft and 4 from Magic
Seal - Cannot use physical abilities (Attack or Crafts). Lasts 3 turns from a Craft and 4 from Magic
Mute - Cannot use magical abilities (Arts). Lasts 3 turns from a Craft
Confuse – Attack nearest ally (or move to attack). If no allies in range, then go after enemies. Could arguably limit enemies to either basic physicals or physical attacks with the non-damage effects nulled (draining, status, MP damage). In game, it seems to have the second effect (partially because enemies that Confuse hits only have to have one physical that sometimes has special effects). It can shut off boss attacks, but those are very low hit rates lasting 1 turn (if that). Lasts 3 turns from a Craft and 4 from Magic
Instant Death - ID
Sleep - Target cannot act. Next hit is a guaranteed crit (+50% Damage) but wakes up enemies. Lasts 3 turns from a Craft
Nightmare - Target cannot act. Next hit is a guaranteed crit (+50% Damage) and adds a random status (not ID, Vanish or Delay) but wakes up enemies. Lasts 3 turns from a Craft and 4 from Magic
Faint – Target cannot act. All hits are critical. Lasts 2 turns from a Craft and 3 from Magic
Petrify – Effectively Death. Permanent
Instant Death - ID
Vanish - Eject

Status’ wear off at the end of action of the afflicted (this is also true of Buffs). If you choose to cast a spell, the turn lasts until the spell goes off.

12. Stat Up, Buff and Stat Down Durations
Stat Up, Buffs and Stat Downs generally last 3 turns if applied by a Craft and 5 turns if applied by an art. The exceptions are Impassion (4 Turns) and Fie’s Concealing Wind (2 Turns)

13. Stat Down Effects
Numbers listed in the PC area are based on Enemy Stats of 3500 ATK w/ a 1x Mult and 2500 ATS w/ a 2x Mult. I didn’t really test much to see if the 1x Mult on the Attack Multiplier was appropriate, but enemy magic is generally the scary stuff (so it having higher damage should make sense, although 2x might be too low a multiplier)

Speed Down 50% doesn’t actually halve speed as it would imply, but increases RT by 1.5x.
 
I’m not including notes on some Mov Down/Adf/Def Down moves. (Adf/Def Down are bad jokes. Lowering an enemy’s defensive stats by half translates to about 1600 extra damage)

Stat Downs inflicted by Crafts last 3 turns

14. Elements
Fire, Earth, Wind/Thunder and Water/Ice are straightforward. Wind and Water are the actual classifications, but certain spells are clearly Thunder/Ice. Time is strongly themed towards Dark. You can make an argument that either Space or Mirage is Holy, although I personally think Space is more appropriate (Cross Crusade and Altair Cannon’s visuals are a giant cross and beams from Heaven, whereas Mirage is more themed towards the visual aspect of light itself. This isn’t a perfect delineation since Mirage does have Saintly Force (although Space’s Insight and Fortuna both look somewhat Holy + Seraphic Ring, Angel MQ and Deus Gem)). Space/Time/Mirage switch between being effectively non-elemental and elemental in game (certain areas have enemies with weaknesses/resistances, as well as extra battle features), although Alfin/Angelica/Claire/Elise/Sharon/Toval are only around at endgame when they are elemental.

15. Strategies
Each character has a Strategies section where I try to outline some of their more important strategies since the variance in CT/RT can make it very difficult to know how exactly something plays out. First I list the basic strategy description, then the moves in the strategy, the total damage done, the damage from each move, and then most importantly, the turn count when each move Activates on (based on average speed).

If the strategy inflicts a status, I will either note the turn count when the status would be applied against 0% resistance/weakness (under my views) and how many CT/RT this buys them. Note that CT/RT will subtract out the RT from the move that applied the status or list out combos for more clarification.

Averages Up Top
HP: 17640
Damage: 21529 (22069 w/ Buffs)
>>>2.5 Kill Point: 53823 (55173 w/ Buffs)
...into the nightfall.

ATS: 2064
ADF: 1952…………………Cuts Magic by 193 (-2.7%)

Evade: -15.8% Scaled (17% Raw)…….(43.2% (58.5%) w/ Insight)
Craft Crit Rate: 10%
Craft Accuracy: 97% (98% w/ Insight)

STRATEGIES
Note: If Alisa doesn't have CP for SCraft before dying (aka: already used her SCraft), the initiative on the post-Death SCraft will put her at 1 CT before the enemy, so even if the enemy 2HKOs her, they'll likely get those 2 hits while she waits for the S-Craft Recovery.

Damage Chains (OHKOed by Faster) - Dies, Purgatorial Flame, SCraft, Dies SCraft = 76162 Damage: 20008, 28077 x2; Damage Activates on 1.33, then Initiative
Damage Chains (OHKOed by Super Slow) - Purgatorial Flame, SCraft x3 = 94913 Damage: 20008, 18751, 28077 x 2; Damage Activates on 1.33 and then effectively initiative after first death
>>>Enemy must be slower than 75% Speed for Purgatorial Flame to go off.
Damage Chains (2HKOed by Faster) - Purgatorial Flame->SCraft, Repeated Twice = 134929 Damage: 20008, 18751, 20008, 28077, 20008, 28077; Damage activates on 1.33, 2.9, 4.49
>>>Against many speeds, will have time to fit in another spell. Best option is to make the final rush Altair Cannon->Purgatorial Flame->Scraft, adding in 17428 Damage. Damage activates on 4.49, 5.21
>>>Enemy has to be very fast (~145%+!) to avoid this combo
3 Turn Average- Cross Crusade, Altair Cannon, Purgatorial Flame, SCraft = 68422
Damage: 12268, 17428, 20008, 18718; Damage Activates at 23, 45, 69

Physical - 1075 Damage, 20 CT

Angel Master Quartz Abilities
- 2PB Auto-Revival on Death with 100% HP/EP and 200 CP. Note that on death, all previous status conditions are wiped out (positive and negative). Also, if she does not have the CP to use an SCraft before dying, using it after auto-reviving will cause the SCraft to go off at a CT count right before the enemy’s next turn (I think).
- Gain 20% HP Regen for 5 turns when HP hits below 20% once per battle
- Halves Recovery Delay when casting Space type Magic

Altair Cannon (337 EP)- 17428 Space/Holy? Magic + 93% ATS/ADF -25% (56% Base). 12 CT, 24 RT.

Shining (45 EP)- Adds Insight Status for 5 turns. Casts in 5 CT, 14 RT.
>>>Hit Rate rises 1% to 97% (and becomes somewhat resistant to Evasion) and Evade rises to xxxx

Turn 2 Rush- Claimoh Solaris x 2, SCraft = 58573 Damage: 19029 x 2, 20515; Damage activate on 1.27, 2.25

Everything in this topic except for averages is now up. If you are reading this and want to know the most relevant part of this topic, it is the strategies sections, which outlines 1-4 combinations of moves characters can use in order to make it easier to figure out what characters can do. Because these are so crucial, I am including them all here in one post!

REAN SCHWARZER -
STRATEGIES
Turn 1 Rush- Valimar's Heavenly Slash = 44000 Damage; Damage Activates at 0.96
Turn 2 Rush- Valimar's Lustrous Slash + Heavenly Slash = 60000 Damage: 16000, 44000; Damage Activates at 0.96, 1.31
Valimar's Best 3 Turn- Valimar's Lustrous Slash, Physical, Heavenly Slash = 69300 Damage: 16000, 9300, 44000; Damage Activates at 0.96, 1.31, 1.63
Delay- Between 13 castings of Impassion and True Arc Slash only costing 10 net CP to me (15 if the attack misses), this generate enough CP for...115 True Arc Slashes (enough to kill even super durable bosses should they be fully susceptible to Delay)

ALISA REINFORD -
STRATEGIES
Note: If Alisa doesn't have CP for SCraft before dying (aka: already used her SCraft), the initiative on the post-Death SCraft will put her at 1 CT before the enemy, so even if the enemy 2HKOs her, they'll likely get those 2 hits while she waits for the S-Craft Recovery.

Damage Chains (OHKOed by Faster) - Dies, Purgatorial Flame, SCraft, Dies SCraft = 76162 Damage: 20008, 28077 x2; Damage Activates on 1.33, then Initiative
Damage Chains (OHKOed by Super Slow) - Purgatorial Flame, SCraft x3 = 94913 Damage: 20008, 18751, 28077 x 2; Damage Activates on 1.33 and then effectively initiative after first death
>>>Enemy must be slower than 75% Speed for Purgatorial Flame to go off.
Damage Chains (2HKOed by Faster) - Purgatorial Flame->SCraft, Repeated Twice = 134929 Damage: 20008, 18751, 20008, 28077, 20008, 28077; Damage activates on 1.33, 2.9, 4.49
>>>Against many speeds, will have time to fit in another spell. Best option is to make the final rush Altair Cannon->Purgatorial Flame->Scraft, adding in 17428 Damage. Damage activates on 4.49, 5.21
>>>Enemy has to be very fast (~145%+!) to avoid this combo
3 Turn Average- Cross Crusade, Altair Cannon, Purgatorial Flame, SCraft = 68422
Damage: 12268, 17428, 20008, 18718; Damage Activates at 1.27, 1.93, 2.64

ALFIN RIESE ARNOR -
STRATEGIES
3 Turn Average (w/ EP Cut)- Spark Arrow, Purgatorial Flame x 2 = 70230 Damage; 9296 + 30467 x 2; Damage Activates on    1.22, 2.17, 3.39
Delay Zeitgeist- Detector Gamma x 3 + Impassion + Detector Gamma x 5 + Impassion + Detector Gamma x 5....->This combo buys 208 CT on this and more could be chained together. Delay starts activating at 1.05
-->Enough EP remains for 12 Spark Arrows (111552 Damage), 15 Luminous Rays (121785 Damage)

ANGELICA ROGNER -
STRATEGIES
Turn 2 Rush- Altair Cannon/Shadow Blade x2, SCraft = 46698: 14288 x2, 18122; Damage Activates on 1.33, 2.41
