Hiya folks. Still playing through the game for the first time. As of now I've done all the Umpani quests up to stopping the reinforcements, and all the T'rang quests up to the finding the DS's ship. Currently my save game is right outside the Bayjin shallows. I've been reloading for 3-4 hours killing the buc ghosts trying to get a light sword. No such luck. So I have a question. Should I reload to before I enter the shallows, portal to Mt. Gigas, and take the water caves through Mt. Gigas to the Shallows? That way I can do the suicide run to check nessies chest for excalibur(where exactly is the chest and Nessie anyway, I've only been from Bayjin to the buc ship so far?) over and over and people have said it is a better sword. The only problem with that is my fighter does practically zero damage. We're talking 60 a round max. My lord does less than that. My Samurai does up to 200 a round with bloodlust, more if he gets a 6x or 8x. So I really need to get my Lord and Fighter new Weapons. So here are my questions:
#1 Is excalibur worth ditching my warrior's Light Shield to use? If not should I just give it to my lord and wait until I get another sword for my fighter?
#2 What's a good weapon for my samurai and where can I get it? If I got him a good 1h I could give the bloodlust to my warrior or lord.
#3 I killed the don at level 12-13 and got the astral dominae. I went to the mook after I got that quest and when I made the switch instead of putting the fake one on to replace it I put the astral dominae. I later went back and got it back(replaced it with the fake) but will this have any effect on my game now?
#4 Why are Geomancers the only monsters that can kill me? I swear they have my number. Lately I've been summoning a Major Elemental and running like a little girl. Seems like even through soul shield/elemental shield they hit with most of their spells.
#5 My current party set up is this:
Level 17 Fighter
Level 17 Mage
Level 16 Bishop
Level 17 Bard
Level 16 Lord
Level 16 Samurai
I have RFS-81 as my 7th. I was wondering what other RPC I should use.
Thanks for your help. I'm trying to finish the game as perfectly as possible the first time through. After I do that I'm going to make a fun party(Faerie Ninja for CoC, Mook Warrior, all that fun stuff) to make use of all the neat items I've found so far I can't use. All your help is appreciated.
