Richter Motherfuckin' Belmont in Castlevania SotN. This guy is like, a speed runner's dream come true.And wonderful dialogue!
Ike in FE10. Simply deploying him will break the game.Nah, Ike's more of a game breaker in FE9. And Fire Emblem has almost nobody that ACTUALLY breaks the game...except Naesala, Tibarn, and Levin!Sety.
Aether is the most broken ability ever.
Actually there were a lot of broken units in that game. Namely all the laguz nobles you get near the end.
Fable's save exploit is up there too.
Old game is old (but good) - Divine Divinity, a RPG.And the counter of people-i've-met-who-played-DD finally reaches 1.
Layering like 5 "Jump 100-points for seven seconds" enchantments using money made by 1) stealing from Vivec vaults and selling to the Mudcrab Merchant and 2) Azura's Star. Coupled with a short Slowfall, I could literally fly across Morrowind.
Baldur's Gate II. Like other games, only fences will buy stolen property. Also, you can steal from fences, they just have very high checks.I never finished BG2. Too busy playing Icewind Dale.
Step 1: Drink 5 Potions of Master Thievery
Step 2: Sell your most expensive stuff
Step 3: Steal it back
Step 4: Goto 2
I never finished BG2. Too busy playing Icewind Dale.BG2 was better. A lot better.
BG2 was better. A lot better.
It was probably the best of the games that used that engine...though Planescape: Torment gives it a run for its money.
Actually, I have all 3, and I enjoyed ID the most myself. The reason why is because I like making my own party. ID lets you do this. BG2 gives you these pre-made characters with OMFG HOW STUPID ARE YOU setups.. Pro-tip, don't dual-wield as a warrior in D&D. Also Protip, don't be half-warrior half druid and screw yourself out of wearing metal because of it. DERP DERP DERP.Err...dual-wield is the way to go in BG2 if you're a warrior class. Dual-wielding, especially with Crom Faeyr or Belm in your off hand. Or you could just use Crom Faeyr in your main hand and thrash people. Also, Fighter-Druids can wear metal armor. It's not the best combination thanks to cruddy weapon choices, but considering that Insect Swarm was arguably the best spell in the game, that was reason enough to keep Jaheira no matter what.
Maybe I was just lazy, but I was more of a Boots of Blinding Speed + homemade waterwalking and levi potions guy myself.
Persona 4 - Kaiwan skill morph trick - Brave Blade, Repel Physical or Victory Cry at the second dungeon? Yes.Your words intrigue me and I wish to learn more.
Elder Scrolls: MorrowindI heard about one guy who enchanted a Daedric Spear with some damage buffs and 1 point of levitation for 1 second on hit. Genius.
Your words intrigue me and I wish to learn more.It's simple - A skill can only morph into a skill of the same rank.
It's simple - A skill can only morph into a skill of the same rank.But mostly Victory Cry.
A lv24 persona Kaiwan has Tetrakarn, which is a level 7 skill - fuse him on a day which has skill change on forecast, use Ukobach and Ghoul so he'll inherit only one skill. Then simply reset until it morphs Tetrakarn into the skill you want. Yeah, you'll need some patience.
Some cool stuff: Brave Blade, Agneyastra, Akasha Arts, all repels, Mediarahan, Victory Cry, Arms Master, Spell Master.
But mostly Victory Cry.Yes :V
It's simple - A skill can only morph into a skill of the same rank.Is that level as in Persona level, or level as in a hidden level we can't see?

I (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTaF3-NvKi0) think (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0totLJeyNFU) we (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xbhpky_snes-super-mario-world-in-102217-by_videogames) have (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkQ0WaLFF94&fmt=18) different (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOyhnLe2Ht8) definitions (http://www.viddler.com/explore/adelikat/videos/81/) of (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xau4ct_genesis-kings-bounty-in-000993-by-g_videogames) 'breaking' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wb33me27KaY) games. (http://www.viddler.com/explore/adelikat/videos/65/)This thread is talking about the legit kind of breaking, using exploits the developers didn't intend would happen under normal gameplay circumstances. Like so (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GameBreaker).
As for the other kind of breaking; because it can be fun to be invulnerable and untouchable! Also achieving everything in the game, even if it's with relative ease.
I also like playing with bugs because they're fun unexpected behavior that might be usable to your advantage.
Is that level as in Persona level, or level as in a hidden level we can't see?Hidden level, it's that a low level persona has a high level skill, so you can morph it into other high level skills...which you wouldn't get until much, much later.
Star Ocean 2Fix'd. And yeah, you can break SO2 HARD with the crafting system, but it can take a few hours to get a Disc 1 Eternal Sphere.
- Exit Salva
- Head West
- Enter Mountain Area
- Grind to level 20
- Put ~7 points into Celine's Playfulness skill
- Buy thief glove
- Pickpocket everyone, especially prophet girl in Kurik (Sprite Bracelet) and old man in east side of Marze(Mars) (Goodie Box)
- Equip Bracelet
- Save/Reload Goodie box until you get Marvel Sword
Otherwise known as "How to be the Richest, Strongest Man in Expel in only 100 encounters."
Alternative to the Marvel Sword, you can also get one of Rena's Stronger weapons. I suggest you do since if you fight Dias in the Tournament of Arms you can get a sword from Gamgee that can be customized into the Eternal Sphere (Claude's Ultimate Weapon).
Hidden level, it's that a low level persona has a high level skill, so you can morph it into other high level skills...which you wouldn't get until much, much later.Thanks for filling me in, I'm all for game-breakers but I also enjoy a challenge. I'll look into this, though.
Fix'd. And yeah, you can break SO2 HARD with the crafting system, but it can take a few hours to get a Disc 1 Eternal Sphere.Oh wow, okay then. It only takes 126 Skill points to get this on one person (Which is suggested because if you tried to use all three to get a similar amount, you'd still be spending 102 points per person.) I think she starts with 80 skillpoints, too (I'm not sure I remember correctly though) So in practice getting to level 20 might not even be nessecery for the process.

And I never use Celine anyway, so dropping her points in Playfulness works just fine for me.
I don't know if this qualifies as a game braker, but when I was around 5-7 years old, I found one.Note: Requires two whistles.
It was in Super Mario Bros. 3. Play the first world until you get two flutes (one from the fort and one from another level I can't recall now).
1. Use flute
2. Use flute in warp zone
3. Skipped 90% of the game
I was amused when I discovered the fastest speedrun for the SMB3 and it used the very same trick I discovered so as a toddler. :D
Too bad Chisato is the last person you can get to join your party.I was chanting almost exactly that earlier today... :V
Oh well, until then, I'll just have to learn how to be happy with "Explosion pills, Explosion Pills, Explosion Pills, Secre-Secre-Secret Medicine, Explosion Pills" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-pSGDZhGTo&feature=related)
And Yet, In spite of all of this, I'm still working on a Claude/Rena/Ashton/Precis Only run. My Inner Fanboy is such a restrictive force.
Catching the Mew is not a lieOh man I forgot how much I abused the hell out of this

Oh man I forgot how much I abused the hell out of thisI used it to catch a level 11 Blastoise once...
Fuse Rainbow Diamonds on your weapon. You'll be near invincible vs Gabriel...but leaving one person on manual control does just that.Though Gabriel will still make you suffer
Haar in FE10. Simply deploying him will break the game.Fixed. Ike's fantastic in FE10, but Haar is the best offensive unit in the game, and Aether isn't all that great in FE10. It is a gamebreaker in FE9, though.
For those of you who want a quaint little adventure through the Horribly Broken FFII, Here's a thread of someone else doing just that (http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3261422). It's a hilarious tale of toads abound, but if you skip this, at least read the last update when he fights the final boss. I suggest reading the whole thing if only to get the full effect of the humor, though.
Also, The World Ends With You. The Planets set I believe it's called, where if you have certain pins in a certain order, your stats are raised to ridiculous levels and you're invincible as long as you have the puck.Great, if you happen to mingle your way into being able to buy them all in the shop, or you luck out and have Black Saturn as the one pin you can buy without mingling.
that puck isn't going to last very long at all with a low 1.1x multiplier, since Neku will be completely unable to attack at all.According to GFaqs, the Eden Set also autosets the puck to x5.
Not to mention Taboo Noise will take an eternity to down, since you need the Light Puck to do any appreciable damage on the enemy.Which is the drawback, yes, and why it's better suited to boss battles that you just wanna win than normal usage.
LASS is a much better alternative, though it will require Neku to not only grind Bravery, but wear goth loli clothes.You say that like it's a bad thing :V
FF12 gets broken, somewhat, if you get the Zodiac Spear at the earliest point. With it, chars that would be hitting maybe 500-750 or so would be hitting 2750-3500, which is clearly a massive boost considering the standard FF damage cap of 9999.That is, if you remember which chests NOT to open. Stupid, isn't it? I haven't played FF12, but my friend Michelle has it.
What's LASS?
Of course, like I mentioned, you need to grind Bravery, since female clothes have a large Brave requirement.Eh, none of the LA stuff is over...what, 200? That's not hard at all; a couple Cordyceps on Neku, tops.
If not, you'll have to beat Ultimate Taboo Minamimoto to finish the set, and if you can pull that off, you have proven that you don't need the Black Planet set.He's not that hard. Use two lightning rooks and one of those SOS setups with it. You need to be lucky to get the actual pin though.
Also, wasn't the invincibility-while-holding-the-puck part of the Eden set?Which, come to think of it, is a good way to cheese a victory against Ultimate Taboo Minamimoto, when combined with a rebootable healing pin...
The Eden set is more trouble than it seems. Sure, you're invincible whenever you have the Light Puck, but it steals five slots from your pins, and if you're using a healing pin to make up for your partner's getting beat up, that puck isn't going to last very long at all with a low 1.1x multiplier, since Neku will be completely unable to attack at all. Not to mention Taboo Noise will take an eternity to down, since you need the Light Puck to do any appreciable damage on the enemy.
LASS is a much better alternative, though it will require Neku to not only grind Bravery, but wear goth loli clothes.
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. Grind Negotiation to get the Cinquedea, then use Steal Ability to steal Steal Weapon and Steal Armor, then get a bunch of weapons and armor well before you're supposed to. It makes it hilariously easy. And on top of that, these knives do buckets of damage at low levels.

Anything that involves more than mindlessly slashing on the bottom screen is too coordination-intensive to work consistently IME. :pCan you pat your head and rub your stomach? :V
Fake EDIT: Strange that we don't have a :p smiley. Not that I think we're worse off for it.
Catching the Mew is not a lie

Can you pat your head and rub your stomach? :VYes, but I can't quite watch where Neku is aiming and where Beat's skull combo is at the same time.
Yes, but I can't quite watch where Neku is aiming and where Beat's skull combo is at the same time.Circles are tricky, everything else works just fine. I had pretty much no trouble with them and I think TWEWY executed them amazingly well.
Plus touch controls are horrible in general and will probably fail when I need them (I think I got the "draw a circle" psychs to work... once maybe).
How do you get Negotiation again?Dismiss one of the starting members of your Clan, accept all the hiring: (species) missions that come up, refuse every single potential hire.
Isn't half the fun of FFTA trying out all the different ways you can abuse the game mechanics?Oh, yes. Black Ingot + Fortune Ring, Concentrate + Last Breath, and other awesome things like that. I hear there's also breakable things in FFTA2, but I've not yet played it.
Oh, yes. Black Ingot + Fortune Ring, Concentrate + Last Breath, and other awesome things like that. I hear there's also breakable things in FFTA2, but I've not yet played it.Auction. You can get the best stuff in the game after I think the sixth plot mission, with ease.
Oh, yes. Black Ingot + Fortune Ring, Concentrate + Last Breath, and other awesome things like that. I hear there's also breakable things in FFTA2, but I've not yet played it.
It is definitely possible to get more broken than this.Yes, it is. (http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/ds/file/937330/54084)
On the subject of FFTA2's brokenness, have an infinite loop. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-rZcmIY9Ig)I thought that you could only pull crap like that off in the original FFT. This is awesome. =D
