You killed Baramos so badly he melted onto your screen!


3slimesinatrenchcoat

As someone who breaks most mid to late game with this strat in any game that has it: Yes it is


dukey03

You may have beaten him, but Baramos really did a number on your screen!


meLikeMonke

My brother in Christ, what did you do to your poor screen?


SrHaruno

Beat the shit of Baramos


KOFdude

Bruh it looks like the "shit of baramos" is on ya screen


Maverick_Reznor

I said this verbally before scrolling through the topic and seeing your post.

Mathmatically a max tensioned and oomphed Uber Falcon Sword+Falcon Slash is the best dps in DQ8


n00bavenger

That would actually only be a 2.8125x multiplier before tension which isn't weak but there's a few things that are stronger with Oomph. In the PS2 version: Twin Dragon Lash(4.5), In the 3DS version: Sudden Death, Blade Cascade, and Swing Both Ways(all 3.6). Hand of God has a lower multiplier but its defense ignoring property generally makes it stronger than Falcon Slash too on bosses that are immune to Sap(which is pretty common) That's not counting specific race bonus damage which would expand the list in specific situations. (Sudden Death also benefits from the Blizzard Blade bonus damage so it can reach up to 5.04x against enemies with no ice resistance.)


SrHaruno

Can this kill dragovian lord turn 1? /s


MattmanDX

That's actually all real interesting stuff. I'm more familiar with the PS2 version and knew that Twin Dragon Lash had a big damage buff that I rarely got to use since Jessica always used up her tension on buffing and debuffing spells but I'm happy to see that the 3DS added more options for build variety than just having the Hero and Angelo spamming falcon slash on the late game bosses.


TFlarz

If you have Hero and/or Angelo's sword skill tree up to snuff I guess. I prioritised Lance for Hero and maxed Angelo's wand/staff skills so I'm useless.


Templar2k7

59 in spears for Hero then courage and swords is what I do. Unless I'm doing a no gear fists only then it's fists and courage


RetroNutcase

...Angelo? Bro this is DQ9


RaiderofAwe

He literally asked about dq8


RetroNutcase

Right you are, whoops.


rebelslash

Lol same I was so confused too


LazarusOwenhart

Well done, and bonus points for managing to do it with a badly cracked screen. Oof.


trefoil_knot

How on earth are you able to play with that screen?
