- Today i'm sharing 8 simple tips to get started with Octopath Traveler 2 and get the most out of the game!
A massive thank you to SquareEnix for providing me with a copy of this absolutely glorious game! #sponsored - Hry
"Take your nuts and spread em over your party" killed me
Another tip: If an area you're about to enter warns it is higher level than you, just don't do it. Anything more than one or two levels above you and you will get your arse handed to you on a platter. There are ways of reducing the encounter rate, and improving your chance of fleeing battle, so you can maybe risk a quick dash through an area, but be sure to save first!
meh, its more fun that way and i beat the sandworm at lvl 32 and rest 28s
I would say, with exception to the cavern of waves by beasting village. With evasive maneuvers and possibly step ahead and the skill that lets you run from battle easier, you can raid it, get the JP augmentor , and then just fast travel out of the dungeon. It’s a level 45 dungeon that should be visited after you recruit all eight travelers.
Hell sometimes you can be over leveled and get hit for 250 off rip
I would argue Temenos as a great starting character. He has guide during the day and can easily recruit and NPC, in Flamechurch Who has mental augmentation, which can be rather useful very early in the game until you get something better. He is also very close to Oswald, throne, and the inventor job class which I stick on him immediately until I recruit one of those two characters. At night he has the coeore skill that you can use to uncover hidden items in towns, discounts at inns, And all other useful things. Instant heals, a quick route to a three party team, one of the two quickest routes to your first secondary job that also allows him to have some physical presence. Add in the fact that he has a skill that restores SP and his light magic being pretty deadly and I would probably amend my statement to say he’s the best character overall to start with.
The nut segment and the pictures you used 😂
As someone who had the tail end of his Octopath Traveler run carried by runelord Therion, I was really inclined to start my OT2 story with Throné. Also her starting attributes ahem ahem were a thing to behold! But, since my starting pick in OT1 was Olberic, I had to stay true and go with Hikari.
Watching your video and playing the game for about an hour I realized that most of the mechanics in OT2 don't differ much (if at all) from their OT1 counterparts. Which is fine since the original game's formula was pretty spot on. Thanks for the quick tips and may the caits be slow and aplenty!
Regarding party comp, there's really two good ways to do it. You can split the game in half, playing with two full parties one after the other. The standard teams for this are "all east" and "all west" as this results in good party comp for combats as well as giving you access to every path action in both day and night (and those are the "only" two parties that have access to all path actions during both day and night.)
The other way to do it is to use your main, cycle healers (whichever is lower level) and then cycle the bottom two slots into whoever is the lowest level at the time. The up side is that the pacing is better, as doing the "two full parties" method has tonal whiplash after your first team finishes all their chapters, and your second party will find the game very easy since you'll have end game gear. The down side to cycling characters like this is that you'll at times find you won't have access to path actions without having to run back to the tavern.
Apothecary as a starter is my personal preference. Little healing little damage. Id say that might be a good choice as a begginer
I started with Agnea and didnt regret my desicion. She is awesome and get brutaly strong, later in the game :)
Didn’t know Cid liked Octopath
Was easily my GotY until Baldur's Gate 3 dropped.
OT2 is a beautiful game.
@@Sector6UKI’ve just picked it up. Can’t wait to play it.
Started with Throne, found Osvald fairly early, but could not for the life of me find Temenos. Suffice to say, Throne's boss fight in a part of Ch. 2 with just two in the party was brutal. Ended up grinding to about 8 levels above the boss just to get through ti, and I had definitely searched for, purchased or stolen all the best gear I could find.
Oh my god, I'm on Bergomi right now, and he's the bane of my existence. How did you beat him? He's flattened my Throné-Temenos-Osvald team every time I've tried!
@@bisurker Yeah I had to grind up a few levels to down Bergomi
Dude same. I beat him after like 2 hours. But that's why I love this game. It's hard and rewarding.
@@bisurkerI had the exact same team as you.
What I did, is focus on one grunt first with throne and Oswald while temenos heals your team in the back. Then take out the other grunt the same way. Then obviously I broke the boss, and then I spammed (M) SoulStones that I found or stole, when his shield was down. Also if my temenos couldn't heal I would use thrones life steal attack.
Lovely game. Glad you were able to find time to play this game between showers.
It's Showering Time!
Hey, looking for some advice. Are we supposed to gather our party of 4 and then play through their chapters or play through 1st chapters of all 8?
Personally i did chapter 1 for each character first so i had everyone.
Then i did everyones 2, then 3 etc...
Now I'd probably recommend to do everyones chapter 1 and then do the lowest "Recommended Lvl" chapter available whether it's 2,3 4 etc.
@@Sector6UK Appreciate the response, was a little overwhelmed. Very helpful.
The game has a lot going on so i get that!
Hope you enjoy it as much as i did, would be my game of the year if Baldur's Gate 3 hadn't swooped in lol
Can someone tell me why my menu inventory list doesn’t come up during the map on the left side on ps5? I’m only chapter 1 and unlocked 2 characters . Am I missing something? Can’t see inventory list
I like agnea but I also dislike her in my part till I got one alter skill... If this is your first time play I suggest to select her as your main character and find a blanced job for her like scholar or something... I was going to leave her behind till I say this video 😊
late game, throne is killer w/ the armament job
You sound like Ralph Ineson xD
I'm pretty late to the party here, but if you still read these comments:
I'm usually a multiplayer guy (D2, CoD, BF, FFXIV etc.) with the occasional Dark Souls and Souls Like games. But for some reason the past few months I've really been on a Singplayer game streak (God of War i.e.). Now I've heard and seen quite the positive reviews about this piece of entertainment.
But would this game really be interesting for someone like me? I like all the Japanese style things and I have quite the weakspot for it (being a weeb in middleschool got me into FFXIV and now 8 or 9-ish years later I still play that). However I've never played a JRPG style game such as this.
Is combat fun? Even though you just select an attack etc.
Not much of a story guy, but I can appreciate a decent storyline being there.
How about time to complete main story/campaign? (Im not into 100% stuff)
Is there replayability? If yes, how much so?
I would honestly say the best thing to do would be to grab the demo, I believe it's still available on all platforms the game released on. That's going to be the easiest way for you to see if you can get to grips with it/enjoy the gameplay.
Completion time realistically could take anything from 65-80 hours (the main story is pretty beefy)
Replayability, sort of
Yuu can do things in a slightly different order, dive deeper into the side quests, take on the games superboss etc. But you can do all of this in one run.
I adore the game so I'd at the very least recommend checking the demo out.
And thanks for watching/commenting, I hope you fall in love with the game like I did!
@@Sector6UK I'll be sure to check it out then! I'm kinda hoping I will like the game, all the positive people as well as your enthusiasm in the video while talking about it are really infectious (is that the right word?)
Did you ever end up picking it up? I recently got this game a few days ago.. and I was quite skeptical but holy hell am I glad I picked it up! It's like the jrpg all others have failed to be the last decade.. also about your story line and jrpg skit, I'm sure you haven't but you should really look into the og ff7! By far my favorite game of all time.. before 7 I would have never had any interest in these kinds of games! It completely and utterly changed the way I perceive story, true jrpg elements, music, and character development! To say jrpgs changed my life would actually be pretty accurate.. may have even saved my life if I'm being honest! Anyway sorry for the book, I hope you picked up op2! And I hope you give ff7 a chance! Or even watch a story recap on CZcams or something it truly is worth your time! 😅
@@K1LoFoXit's a bit different for me, I picked this up 3 minths ago, and I played for 3 to 4 hoyrs and never touched it until yesterday, ended up playing 4 more hours and now, I'm hooked.
I highly recommend this game. It's fucking straight up tits man.
Oswald suck to start with! Cassti, or Hikari. Casti, Hikari, Throne, Teminos, great starting team.
I started with Partitio, because i love his personality and story,, i dont care about his combat ability. Just take money and jp for the party, he could buy expensive stuff eventually 😂 .
Partitio's amazing, one of his people he can hire later on in the game is pretty essential for power levelling, i can tell you more if you want lol
@@Sector6UK not yet please lol , I refrain to find guide for this beloved games , to be honest . I love to explore it myself, because this game is one of the easiest to grasp concept and find how to defeat boss . And I still in chapter 1 , still recruiting and lost in map somewhere, lol . Somehow while I find octopath 2 trailer, i got your video recommendation, and I glad there are no / minimal spoiler . Cheers .
