This is also the first exploration event that you'll experience that features a merchant . These offer time-limited shops that may sometimes offer exclusive items. If you want something and do not currently have the Coins for it, you can partake in Mental Mock Battles in the Encampment to earn some. This can be done even during an exploration ev
This is the first mandatory battle wherein you will have Recommended units . These units are considered particularly useful by the game for the current battle. Including all of them in your battle party will not only give you an edge but will net you some Utility points . Conversely, if you use none of them, you'll get some Liberty poin
Triangle Strategy suffers from the same thing that plagued Game of Thrones . There are a lot of characters with relationships to others, each presiding over distant lands. There are the three main kingdoms of Glenbrook, Aesfrost, and Hyzante, but then there are houses and factions within e
The Fire Emblem series hasn't utilized the direction units face as a game mechanic, although other strategy RPGs such as Final Fantasy Tactics do. Triangle Strategy takes after Final Fantasy Tactics by including unit direction - where players place their units is always going to be important in both Fire Emblem and Triangle Strategy , but players will have to also consider the direction their unit faces in the latter. Whenever a unit is hit from behind, they’ll take a critical hit - something players want to protect their units from and utilize when they see an enemy open
After taking part in your first momentous vote in Triangle Strategy , you will be taken to either the Grand Duchy of Aesfrost or the Holy State of Hyzante. With the former route, Serenoa and co. get to see the chilly north for the first time in the game and meet Archduke Gustadolph. With a large exploration event and a pretty difficult battle to contend with, this route can be a challenge. Luckily, it also comes with a nice reward - the ex-salt smuggler Rudolph, winprizes who makes for a fine addition to the team. More Walkthroug
For those that want to enjoy the story but do not want to pay perfect attention, there is a button for that as well. Players can autoplay the dialogue. This negates the need to hit a button to skip to the next speech bubble every time. It’s been done in RPGs before, but it still deserves applause h
It has been a long time since Square Enix put out a strategy RPG on consoles like Triangle Strategy . It has been even longer since they have made a Final Fantasy Tactics game despite fan outcry. Will fans ever get a new one or even a re-release of one of the classics? The future is unknown but Square Enix is not shy about remasters and remak
There is also money needed for various items like in a typical RPG . It’s harder to get materials or money in mock battles, which again, makes upgrading certain aspects tricky. It gets better the deeper players get into Triangle Strategy , but it can still be a strug
With an enemy force of 12 units, you sure have your work cut out for you. To balance the scales, you'll also have Rudolph and Sycrus on your side . Rudolph is an archer like Hughette, but prefers to get closer to his targets. Sycrus is a beefy Staffwielder with the Cheer ability, which grants them TP and buffs their strength for a few tu
Anna will agree with this path if you have 'Defying the Holy One' in your inventory. You'll have either received this from Chapter 8's Exploration Phase, or you won't have; it depends on which location your version of the chapter is set wit
Every aspect of combat is satisfying. The one downside is the lack of interchange job classes. Autobattles would have also been nice. Those are small nitpicks in an otherwise simple but robust strategy R
Once the battle is over, revel in your victory and watch the following scenes. Unfortunately, you don't get to control the battle against the Dawnspear - but it's probably for the best. Oh, well. At least that is chapter two of Triangle Strategy compl
Once you have won the battle, you'll get to learn a little bit more about Rudolph's story and end up recruiting him into your party permanently. Unfortunately, you don't get to keep Sycrus and his overpowered buff sk
One thing that is missing completely is cutscenes. The PSP version of Final Fantasy Tactics added cel-shaded cutscenes to some major plot points, and they looked great. They aren’t needed in Triangle Strategy but they would have rounded out the package nic
Having agreed to help Sycras with the sting operation, you now have all of Central Aesfrost to explore. As always, there are items and tidbits of info to pick up , and a few conversations that lead to Conviction boosts - the NPCs that give these have exclamation marks above th
There is an aspect of the sound that is not perfect. The voice acting, for about 80% of it, is great in English. The acting isn’t the problem though, it’s the amount of dialogue. Many fractured scenes take players back and forth on the map, even if a scene is continued from that same po
