Stat Grinding | |
| Pillars of Dust (Video Game) / int_36736927 | comment |
Stat Grinding: After battle, there's a chance a stat will increase. For offensive stats, this is dependent on whether the characters mainly use physical or magic skills. The chances go up if the enemies go through a phase increase, creating a risky way to eke out a few more stat points. | |

Bad Boss | |
| Pillars of Dust (Video Game) / int_3cb1d38d | comment |
Bad Boss: Some of the bosses, such as the High Priestess of Naev and the wvvern Jezos, are servants of Almorigga. Unfortunately for them, Almorigga has no problem directing the heroes to attack them as part of his plan to get the heroes into the Outer Plane. Played with in that he can resurrect them to act as minibosses in the final dungeon, meaning they most likely cannot permanently die until Almorigga is killed. | |

Rocket-Tag Gameplay | |
| Pillars of Dust (Video Game) / int_8b0a127 | comment |
Rocket-Tag Gameplay: Each battle has a countdown of how many ATB ticks have to pass before the enemies get stronger. To mitigate this, the party is fully healed after every battle, encouraging them to try to wipe out the enemy as quickly as possible rather than conserving AP. For tankier enemies, it becomes necessary to use the Magic Star consumable to forcibly increase the countdown for the phase timer. | |

Non-Standard Game Over | |
| Pillars of Dust (Video Game) / int_8e0430ab | comment |
Non Standard Game Over: There are humorous non-combat game overs, though the player will always spawn in the same map. The talking wells often try to tempt the party to jump into them. This sometimes results in a secret treasure room, but can also result in the party falling to their deaths. In Carlton's Chapter 1, he can be killed by a bandit with a Pickle Stabber if he refuses to give up a key item. In the Tower of Pain, Gregg can be killed if he falls down a hole in the floor or if he gets hit by a pendulum blade. | |

He plans to lure them to his castle so he can spill their blood, undoing the seal that King Karl placed on him. | |
