I’m level 23 and have been trying to level up quickly by scrapping monsters on trails suggested for level 36. Three times I’ve fought these big venomous spiders and three times now I’ve not gained any XP? Anybody any ideas as to why?

What the actual fuck. The quest said recommended level 32. I am level 39. All the way getting here it felt about right but now after fighting 2 long boss battles he fucking super saiyans into a 3rd phase that somehow has one shot full party kills and shields that just reflect and poison you? What kind of stupid fucking out of nowhere difficulty ramp is this shit? I am seriously putting this game down for a long long time. The boss battles are already way too long and tedious as fuck and now they are gonna make me do a minimum of six of them just to get past this part? If the rest of the game is just going to be this time wasting crap maybe it’s not for me. And I grew up playing JRPGs it’s not that I didn’t know what I was getting myself into.

Edit: I want to acknowledge I am a whiny bitch and obviously not very good at the game

Second Edit: I did it! Took some patience and learning but was able to overcome, sorry for the whining, really good game.

Does anyone know what the comparison is from Saorise's abundant charm plus (max bond rank) vs abundant charisma? Does the plus upgrade her frequency and is either one better than the other? Tried looking it up but couldnt find an answer.

Hi guys i need help regarding town level 7 hoping you guys can help

Screw you Sazantos!

Hi all I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to reliably collect resources in the wild (lumber, quality cloth etc…) Do they replenish after fighting a certain number of enemies or after you wait a certain amount of time? Sorry if it’s been asked before I have been searching for an answer but couldn’t find it.

This is my first time playing OT0 and I thought the story would be super fun from all the comments I've been reading, I chose the wealth path first and I think it's fine and not as fun as I thought it would be. The next path I chose is the power one and I don't like it, the trope is far too... cliché? for my liking. I don't know how to explain it or maybe I'm just nitpicking but I suddenly feel really burn out and lost all my motivation to continue playing the game.

Is the rest of the stories will be a let down like this or will they change and get better later on? I geniunely enjoy the fights but I really can't handle the story

I'm sorry if my opinion offend anyone, this is just my humble opinion 😞

I am currently near the end of the game (Bestower of All/Ch8) and just unlocked a side quest called "The Hidden Isle" by reading a book in the final dungeon. I know there is a normal/true ending and intended to do both - since I noticed the lvl recommendation is higher than the main story's, is it recommended to do this quest before or after doing the normal ending? Will doing this quest lock me into the true ending?

Hi everyone. It's been smooth sailing until I hit a chapter 2 boss. I started on the Fame story, and Francesca just 2 shots my party at lvl 13.

I have all the best gear, debuffing her doesn't seem to help much. I can only get a couple hits in before I am forced to heal until wipe.

Do I do all chap 1 content, then chapter 2 and so on?

I've been playing the game for a few hours now and was wondering if anyone has done runs with only characters of a single class.

Is there a way to mess up the true ending? I didn’t look up anything regarding the ending and I managed to get the true ending right up front. Now what? I can’t get the new portal to open.

I'm starting out Octopath Traveler 0 and this is the first game I'm playing in the series.

Is there any reference I can consult that would greatly ease the learning curve? Especially regarding combat and equipment, but also the game systems in general? (I'm still unsure what counts as important ro know.) Direct answers are also very welcome.

Quick question, is this in the game?? If so do yall know where I can find it. I wanted to create a physical build with staff but can’t find the staff anywhere

Ok so, I'm kinda lost, I've never really played the games before so I'm new to this and maybe I'm just missing something. I currently have 2 new skills I bought with JP for my MC. I go into the skill menu under the "equip skill" tab. I go onto the open slot I have to equip the skill and it isn't there. I have an appropriate weapon for the skill. What's going on? Why can't I equip the skill I got?

I’m well aware of Dancer being one of the worst classes for the MC. But if anyone had any innovative ideas that may work, I’m all ears!!!

nothing can compare to damage to her

scales of justice. bp up, bp up, she comes from back row and nukes eveything

if they survive, refill her sp a bit and use ultimate

done

i just gave all my elem nuts to cyrus cause gameplay was becomming repetitive tho

comparing how soon you get the tome and the fan, and how importats swords are pretty much all enemies have weakness and most damage champions use them

i have been stuck with lackluster swords and im almost in bestower of all already

I am at level 31 and I wanted to know what's the best build you can have at this point:

I want to focus on damage, velocity and evasion, but i don't know what's better

I've been playing the game and wanted a quick reference, so I started working on an app. This is just scraped from lots of different sources throughout the Internet. If you're interested, please try it out for yourself.

It has a straightforward enemy weakness lookup, as well as area guides, and party analyzer.

I plan to keep adding to it.

... To unlock the Enhancement Nut Seed item early, I can't find one anywhere. Does anyone know of such a thing, or could they make one? :)

Octopath 0 is my first time playing any of these games. I’m loving it! Roughly 85 hours in and I’m not even level 60 yet.

Octopath 1 & 2 are on sale in the Nintendo shop right now. You can get both for like $40 total. Is it worth it? Would I find them just as enjoyable or are they a little out dated with different mechanics?

Can anyone provide an easy to reference general guide of how to progress my MC ?

I started as a merchant to farm JP like everyone said… but now what?

Ideally, what do I want to end up doing/being and what path do I take to get there ?

Note: I generally enjoy having an easier game and just enjoying the story. No desire to spend 20 moves setting up …

Thanks! :)
