I have the AI thing all planned out as well. 1. Lann Island cave. Jessica is at a higher level, so I give her Alex's armor and let her fight against the lizards while Alex heals. Before the fight, turn her magic AI on in case she needs to use calm litany. Afterwards turn it back off. 2. Crystal Towe...

Yeah, I'm aware that it works for items too. Mia hardly does any damage at all with magic. And for the bosses where magic does work well (like the tanks), their physical defense is higher which makes deprotect even more valuable. The only time I have her use attack magic is her first boss fight in t...

Thunder thumper works on the Brainiac as well (sometimes), which is helpful. Also works on the tank you might in the mine. Doesn't work on the black dragon AFAIK. I think I'm ready to get this done. Of course, actually doing it will be hard since it takes over 3 hours to go through it. Actually, I h...

I realized last night that at the Star Chamber vs the two pipers, they're vulnerable to Nash's thunder thumper spell. It was an easy fight anyway, but that's another improvement. Now I'm gonna have to test it out on all the bosses. Another thing to test out will be rainbow drops, which mean that &qu...

Do you know what levels party members are at various points? I know you're not planning on levelling people up, but one thing that occurs to me is that if TSS divides the total EXP among the surviving party (which I don't remember if it does for bosses, though I don't know why it wouldn't) then you...

Yeah, it's gonna be single segment. The list may be SOP, but I didn't do it the first time. I'm almost embarrassed to look at the old run after realizing how many ways I can improve it now. I did a little testing with the amulet and I didn't notice any difference. Unfortunately, I don't think it giv...

I think now I'm going to do some tests on the amulet to see if it's worth it, and also if it has any effect in caves.

I believe this is completes, if my notes are correct. I'm gonna play through it at least one more time before I actually attempt a run, just to perfect it. ITEM LIST (Not including story items. Also missing those used in battle, which I'll fill in eventually.) 1. Burg-get/equip dagger, heavy clothes...

Well, I beat the game again. One of the big things I missed last time was not picking up the pixie bow for Nash. That helps a lot. I also forgot about the mountain shortcut near Burg. There's also a couple of spots where the event triggers will be smoother. Like for instance, I realized that it's no...

I have a model 1 sega cd and a model 2 genesis, and I've never had any problems with TSS. Although, I did send away to get my sega cd repaired at one point.

I'm playing through the game again and just got past the Luna kidnapping. Turns out that not leveling up won't hurt me at all, thanks to better item management and the magic AI "bug." That definitely makes things even easier, and helped a bunch against the "lizards" and the 1v6 v...

:idea: A thought occurs. If I don't level up before the Bronze dogs, it will make the following fights more difficult.

Lunar: TSS speed run v2.0

Ok, I think it's time to start this thread. I'm not promising that this will be done any time soon, but I'll get around to it eventually. This thread will track my planning and progress. The first thing I probably need to do is buy a capture card so I don't have to tape it on a vcr. I'll worry about...

Just a hypothetical question...

How hard would it be to make a game for the sega cd, based on the Lunar "engine?" If you kept the battle system and look/feel of the original, but came up with all new dialog, graphics, music, characters, enemies and events, how long would do you think it would take to do all that? I just ...

There's really only two difficult battles: bronze dogs and vs the 6 vile guys with only Alex. You need a bit of luck when you flee so that you end up in the right position.

I'm not sure it's really that unfair anyways. It gets the most accurate results. Granted we didn't do it for earlier rounds, but that would have killed the possibility of getting a battle royale in at the end with all the semi-finalists. Taking one day from that is fine, but taking 3-4 (however man...

The fact that you're now having a runoff for this poll ruins the whole thing for me. You already have had two 3-way polls in this tournament, and there was no runoff before. Do you realize how inconsistent and unfair that is?
