She's a hard matchup for him or Rikuto would have taken the whole thing. He might have anyway but it didn't work out that way. I got top 16 with little to no practicing until basically the week of so I'm content.

While true, her fucking grave moved lol. I can't be the only one who noticed that.

I had trouble landing a solid hit on Alma to knock her down but she literally never hit me. She's much easier to evade now.

A lot of the enemies, bosses included, got buffed up. A lot of the loops no longer work, either. I'm not sure I enjoy a few of the balance changes but it's hard to say that I'm not enjoying the added challenge in general.

I'll get the costumes on my Normal run since I have to play it anyway. Saves me time in the long run.

Alright then. I've skipped most of the challenges anyway; mostly because, while I did see the skulls, I decided I didn't care enough to look for how to get to some of them lol. The ones I did get I was usually looking for scarabs and accidentally found them.

Anyone beaten Hard yet? I'll finish tonight but I'm curious about needing to collect scarabs and their rewards again on higher (or lower, since Normal is confirmed to not stack with Hard...) difficulties.

That discussion should be held in the NG3RE Gen Discussion thread. This is for the demo lol. I'm actually going to be locking this one shortly.

We have a subforum set up for NG in General Discussion. We look forward to having you join the discussion.

I find myself using Wind Path/Run in place of the Guillotine Throw, actually. Guillotine Throw rarely kills and gives the enemy a chance to mess me up later if I try to focus on other enemies. Wind Path/Run stuns the enemy in place, within my reach, and keeps me in control of the mobs. Much...

Lunar is at it's best against bosses. It constantly deals damage, whether on hit or on block, and is incredibly hard to punish for the AI. You can pretty much just hit XYX...on any enemy in the game. You either lift them for an Izuna or stop there and land safely during their guard stun window...

Lunar deals pretty heavy chip damage now. I'd say it's currently the most powerful weapon with that and how much invincibility it has.

I'm at the first save on Ayane's Day 6 and have 36 or 37 scarabs I think. I know for a fact I've missed a couple and I've only done 2 of the skull challenges. I haven't really been seeking those out though. Since the only reward appears to be karma I'll likely just do them all on a Normal run to...

Running slashes with the katana are huge helps if you want to do hit and run on him. They're pretty safe. I haven't fought him yet so I can't give specific advice but you'll want to abuse i-frames. You can Izuna him too as long as he's not Fiend Genshin.

I think when I do my MN run, maybe not my first though, I might record it as a how-to guide for players who aren't quite Master Ninjas to get through as easily as possible. Skipping encounters that can be skipped, abusing certain techniques, loops that aren't too hard to do, etc. It'd be...

Damnit I was afraid of that. NG3 didn't either. Ah well. I'll do Normal before my MN run, then.

That's not really a question anybody can answer for you, but I will tell you that I find it worth it. With the exception of Tag, it has everything the main game has plus extra features outlined in other threads on this board. If you are planning on attending tournaments then this is invaluable...

I believe so but only if you import your save data. Honestly I don't remember but you get Lunar at 10 scarabs, you come into the game with 4 if you imported from the demo, and I believe there were 6 scarabs in the first day. The skull challenge is nearly at the end of the level. I might be...

Do you mean in Razor's Edge?

Doku gave me some trouble on Hard, actually. Didn't kill me but I was forced to actually do some hit and run on him rather than being purely on the offensive like I usually do. Part of that is that I'm refusing to use Lunar until I get my 1,000 kills with swords for the achievement lol.
