RPGM Completed The Last Sovereign [v1.0.0] [Sierra Lee]

[Ner0nitas]

Can I grind my way to victory? Like Overlevel cause would the game think I'm cheating or does it have a mechanic that detects that. ?_?

You can't grind.
Dead enemies stay dead (no random encounters, 99% of all enemies are visible on the field).

Yes, the game has anti-cheat systems in place, in case you are overleveled.
Which simply means, reaching a level you simply couldn't have reached naturally at that part of the game.

But you can use an editor and edit stats, without affecting the level, as the game doesn't care about how high your ATK or DEF is.
That being said, the game detects if you won an unwinnable fight, which gets punished.
And the game detects if you defeat some specific enemies too fast.

Read with caution, as it is kinda spoilery.

It is encouraged to defeat every enemy, as experience and money are finite.
Don't worry too much about "defeating some enemies at a later time".
Some people make a big deal out of the fact that chars miss out on experience if you defeat enemies without getting the chars first.
It doesn't matter much, don't sweat it.

Also, everyone in your party gets the experience, not just active members.

Thanks for the info. Kinda gotten a meh now since I personally like overleveling before going to the next quest. Or being overprepared for a situation. Its how I gotten by Xcom.

I am the type of guy to enter the 2nd main quest in a game with all possible obtainable characters in the game max levelled...


That being said, this game does not really require you to min/max at latter stages, but expects you to have a decent team, and at least decent gear for non-main team.

So as long as you utilize enemy weaknesses and your buffs/resistances, don't shit your pants once you see 99 Health elixirs get reduced to 98, you'll be fine.

While I share the sentiment somewhat, this game here isn't that hard or punishing.
In games like 'Xcom', you wanna squeeze out as much of your party as possible.
But 'The Last Sovereign' doesn't really work that way.
As it's being said, a propper party composition and knowing what you are doing is far more important.

Or in other words:
If you struggle with an enemy because of a not-so-good strategy, you would still struggle, even if you grinded 5 levels for each char.
If you have a char with 2000 HP and an enemy does 1900 DMG, a few levels more would result in 2150 HP and 1800 DMG taken.

But again, I know how you feel.
I wouldn't lay a finger on some 'Fire Emblem' games if they miss the option to grind, since I'm terrible at these games.
But 'TLS' is nothing compared to that, it's a pretty chill game with alot of viable options.
The only hard parts are optional areas for bonus items and some bosses.

"Chill game"

So many options, your brain will explode, then you won't even know where you fucked up or why a certain empress is mad at you

Well, I was simply talking about the combat. ^^

But hey, the rest also is pretty chill if you don't stress yourself out over some options.

Ah yes, turn your brain off and enjoy the story
Then be curious why everybody dies, you're losing wars and everybody thinks you're a jerk

But it adds to the replay value.
But yes, the most difficult parts are everything other than combat.
Some sections can be mean, some decisions screw with you... and then there is 'running away from the spider'.
Like wtf, I still can't believe it.

I get that, trust me, as someone who plays a good amount of RTS and RPG games, knowing your team setup is crucial. Balancing on who will attack, tank, defend, heal, buff, and debuff is essential. Somewhat like when I play Star Ocean. Where the comp of my team mattered with dealing with challengin enemies.

I understand that this is an adult game and all I'm just giving it proper attention personally. Knowing who to use and which skills to use is crucial for any RPG. Knowing when to apply them is next. That's why I always go with the moto never make it a fair fight if you can help it. And glad someone mentioned Fire Emblem one of my fav character game the other being Valkire chronicles

this i think was the one annoying thing i get with the game. the anti-cheat. i get the dev doesn't want us to tamper with the game balance or something but some of us like to fuck with shit just to see what happens. in the end we are the ones who are playing the game. yeah he created it but we are the ones who are looking for the experience of it. if the anti-cheats had a toggle that might be better though. but meh. the dev will likely ignore this and keep doing what they do :/

This kinda nonsensical mindset aside, I wonder why the anti-cheat system is the way it is.
Half-assed, I mean.

The game punishes you for being overleveled... but not for raising your stats.
Sure, if you win a fight you aren't supposed to, the anti-cheat triggers.
But there are still so many ways to cheat the system, I wonder why there is this anti-cheat stuff in the first place.

I need help. I followed Grim8p's playthrough, and I believe I did something wrong. I can't research the last crystal.

looks like new update is out for patreons, will be interesting to see what changes it dose to mercenary investments

 

[SleeplessDemon]

The anti-cheat check to obtain the last harem member is so annoying...

I looked at the variable switches and it seems to be using variables from the beginning of the game (I didn't unlock the war vaults so I cheated in the incubus helm) I do not want to play another 30 hours just to do it properly

None of the new variables are a simple anti-cheat flag (And just giving yourself the item doesn't set any variables true). So the game is checking a past variable that you actually obtained the incubus helm legitimately...so annoying

Such a harsh punishment because it's so easy to miss any of the incubus set

I downloaded save 90 in the Wiki walkthrough

Hi. Glad you seem to be enjoying the game and walkthrough. I've updated the walkthrough in a few places to specifically call this out so that future players hopefully do not end up in the same situation.

For future feedback (directed at anyone, not just you) this thread is not the best way to reach me if you run into anything else or have any other feedback. I'm prevalent in the official

and have my own

there which is the best way to provide feedback. I do welcome feedback, just ideally via that Discord thread. This comment was sent to me via Discord which is why I'm here right now.

I am glad to hear that you were able to figure things out though. I hope everyone continues to enjoy TLS, whether they're using my walkthrough or not. =D

Interesting update, I think it will make it easier to understand some investments now that Megail will give her thoughts.
I'm curious to see what those two "pity" investments are.
