Unlimited Saga is an Eastern RPG developed and published by Square Enix for the PlayStation 2 and released in 2002. It is the ninth game in the SaGa series, and the only one without the series' traditional capital 'G' in the title.In the lush fantasy world of Unlimited Saga, there is a prophecy that states that when the power dwelling within the Seven Wonders Of The World is released, a god will awaken and usher in a Golden Age. The game tells the stories of seven heroes who set out on their own individual quests across this land, which brings them into contact with the Seven Wonders.The heroes are: Armic, a rodent-like "Chapa" who is selected to go a quest to save his tribe from a drought; Judy, a young witch out to save her family from the clutches of a jealous rival; Kurt, a former knight with a mysterious cursed gauntlet; Laura, an ex-pirate who is currently aiding a royal heir; Mythe, a talented blacksmith who is searching for a beautiful woman he became infatuated with; Ruby, who tags along with her fortune-teller sister to discover the truth behind a sinister prediction; and Ventus, a young man who became a courier to track down the murderer of his brother.The game itself uses a distinctive "Tabletop Games" set-up, where you move the piece representing your party across the map and fight monsters, dodge traps and search for treasure along the way. The key mechanic is the controversial "Reel System": for almost every action, you spin the reel and try to stop it on a "Success" panel. In battle, this also determines if you get a critical hit, a special move or even cast the right elemental effect for spells. However, in practice the Reel System was a horribly unbalanced mess, often including far too little "Success" panels and reducing the timing to a Luck-Based Mission.What exacerbated this effect was the fact that you only get a certain number of "moves" per map, with constant failures sucking up your available moves and eventually forcing you to re-do the entire map from the start. There was also the incredibly complex and unintuitive Character Customization system that frequently forced you to take a hit to your stats even if you managed to figure out the mechanics, and (like everything else in the game) also relied on the unbalanced Reel System for upgrades. The seven heroes also had natural strengths and weaknesses which were not always complemented by the upgrade options available to you. | |

Early Game Hell | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_1527d90d | comment |
Early Game Hell: Armic and Kurt's quests have very rough beginnings. Kurt's first few adventures are practically endurance tests on weapon and Hit Point management. Kurt's first quest gives you a very frail ally and throws a lot of Darkness-inflicting enemies your way whose accuracy debuffing will erode your weapons quickly. It isn't until after you've crossed the Vale of Swords that you have enough resources at your disposal to properly arm yourself. Armic's item-oriented objective bottlenecks your starting progress behind unremarkable starting shop inventories and foregoing of early stat-gains from quests in favor of item-farming...and that assumes you've thought of exploiting the Turn Limit mechanic for items instead of braving the side-quests you're unequipped for. Judy is a Squishy Wizard saddled with a worthless shield she can't make much use of and three attack-spell items, one of which has next to no durability. The rest of her starting magic is locked behind a Magic Tablet whose spells take ages to learn and her low defenses make grinding for a non-option for a fair while, even with the burly tanks that join her. Her fourth main quest is also Guide Dang It! incarnate whose lack of clarity makes it seem unwinnable. note Specifically, "Bandits Are Attacking!" See the YMMV section for details on it. It's only when you get to Gadeira that you're finally able to start pooling your resources and plan ahead. | |

After Boss Recovery: You get a free HP and LP refill once in the game. If some of your characters lost all of their LP, they get revived and get one. The catch? You have to fight the final boss and it's tougher than anything you had to face before. | |

Global Currency Exception: Some places in the game like the Chapa village do not accept money and only barter items. Did a Dragonscale armor appeared in a shop in one of those place? Time to go do some shopping in others towns buying the most expensive stuff you can get your hands on to barter. | |

Sibling Rivalry: A one-sided one develops between Leon and Kurt as time goes on. It gets to the point where he orders his own father's assassination. If Kurt defeats the strongest monster in the Gauntlet, Leon will snap and ride the Arcanian Mech when Kurt fights it at Starship Anchor. They get better, though. | |

| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_20e20e99 | comment |
The Inconspicuous Panel. A skill designed to slow the growth of Monster Rank sounds well-and-good when you spot it early on, but Rank takes awhile to raise and at the point Inconspicuous becomes marginally viable for application, (IE: the very end of the game) the player has enough of an arsenal that it's pretty useless. Of course, its Panel has fair Wood growth, making it fine for a Thunderbringer mage's Panel Combo... | |

Stuck Items: Once put, negative panels (Phobia, Pacifism and Seal) cannot be removed, only replaced by other negative panels. Some people use them anyway because of their stat boost. Kurt and Michelle have a Gauntlet Panel that can't be removed. In Mythe's scenario, Michelle get ridden of it. | |

Glass Cannon: Michelle has the highest growth stat for both the strength and skill stat, allowing her to do a ton of damage, especially with light martial arts. The catch? She has the game's lowest LP. Phantom does an absurd amount of damage but thankfully is not that tanky compared to some other late game bosses, making the fight a race of out-damaging your opponent while surviving. | |

Cursed with Awesome | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_309b8806 | comment |
Cursed with Awesome: Seriously, you don't have any excuse to not spark any Level 4 arts with Kurt with all the gauntlet battles thrown at him. Especially since the last one is against the monster with the highest spark rank in the game. Negative Panels in general qualify, applying a situational debuff to that character permanently,note Unless replaced with a different Negative. but granting them major stat boots in exchange. note Tiffon starts with a Phobia Panel, which reduces stats to damn-near-nothing against the enemy it pertains to; in her case, the undead. She will be nigh-useless against the Knights of the Round Table if it isn't replaced beforehand, as the Knights are labelled as Undead enemies. | |

Magic is something of a zig-zag. If you manage to spark the hilariously rare Magic Blender Panel, note Magic Blender is a special panel that allows you to synthesize spells in your arsenal (known spells, not spells you have by proxy of Familiars or Bestial weapons from magic shops) into new ones or power up existing spells by about 30-or-so percent. your generic mage has just quadrupled their casting ability and has become the perfect character to dump Tablets onto. However, if the odds are not in your favor, most Arts sans the Detect series, Purify and Missile Guard start to become less effective against tankier enemies; which soon become the norm thanks to Monster Rank. | |

Level Scaling | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_31eeddc8 | comment |
Level Scaling: Subverted. The Growth Panel system doesn't have Levels for characters to gain. However, there is a monster ecosystem in the game. The more enemies you kill, the higher the chance of stronger variants of existing enemy types spawning, eventually becoming the new norm. The Monster Rank can go as high as 10, where sub-bosses of the game will start being encountered as regular enemies. The Inconspicuous Panel is designed to slow the rate at which Monster Rank goes up.....Though it's rarity tends to make it rather moot, as the Rank can skyrocket by the time you get it. | |

In Ventus's scenario, you have to fight the Knight of the Round Table one by one and then their leader although you get a special item to help you get through it. Also, the final battle in everyone scenario involves their antagonist and then the four forms of Chaos. Mythe's quest has you having to fight the Knight of the Round Table, their leader and then Chaos. | |

Melee Arts start off unimpressive. They're about lower-par with your starting weapon most of the time. Why would you punch something a sword runs right through? Not having to worry about durability, for starters. Give yourself some Melee Panels and you'll gain a variety of useful enemy debuff moves such as Sinker, Brute Force and the ever-stunning Throw line. Certain characters (with equipment weight accounted for) even get rewarded with Light Martial Arts, the strongest weight class that contains the game's second-strongest Art period: Three Dragons. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b | comment |
Unintentionally Unwinnable: It is completely possible for the player to save the game at Flying Island and face off against Yun Crimsonrain without having the required type magic spells at their disposal.note Norff, Rebecca and Kong Ming come with at least three of the required types by default. However, this assumes the player will keep all three in the same party, much less keep them equipped with accessories that allow them to cast said Magic. The player will then be shocked to discover an invincible boss that doesn't respond to anything in the player's current arsenal... with zero indicator that magic is required to dispel Yun's gimmick-barrier. If that was the player's only Armic save file... | |

Blessed with Suck | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_3c3f28a5 | comment |
Blessed with Suck: Kurt's gauntlet makes him even stronger, but it's constantly dragging him into battles... Roughly every twenty minutes, in fact. In actual play time, mind. It also happens at the beginning of quests; Game Time isn't the only factor. Oh, Kurt only gains strength from his Gauntlet Panel in his story, by the way. In Judy's story, he lacks any means of improving it. He remains gimped as a party member. Judy's story thrusts this on the player. When selecting the final quest, you need to gimp your party by one. When it's time to fight Clyde Blackstorm, Judy's grandfather Josef is thrust into your party. He's hyped throughout the story as the best mage of them all. However, he has the second lowest LP in the game, only one good spell, no means of defense, (outside of an RNG-regulated Shield) and all of your characters at that point are statistically superior to him in every way. | |

Magikarp Power | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6 | comment |
Magikarp Power: The Spear skill "Grasshopper" isn't very effective for a move designed to Stun enemies, seeing as said effect has a rather low rate of success. This makes it risky in early fights, since a better action could've taken its place. But, if you managed to spark its Level 3 variant "Reaper," it becomes a godsend against enemy mobs; since the chances of reducing your opponents' actions goes up the more enemies there are on-screen. Melee Arts start off unimpressive. They're about lower-par with your starting weapon most of the time. Why would you punch something a sword runs right through? Not having to worry about durability, for starters. Give yourself some Melee Panels and you'll gain a variety of useful enemy debuff moves such as Sinker, Brute Force and the ever-stunning Throw line.

Rare Random Drop | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_4afad1b9 | comment |
Semi-related to the above, Forbidden Arts are amazingly powerful, usually come with enemy-instant-killing Blackout and are really easy to build for - only relying on the Magic stat for damage. Tablets containing Forbidden Spells (as well as the Demonite material that lets you use them) are also rarer than rare and take eons to learn even if you know which Quests offer the best environments for them.note And that's not even getting into the madness that is hunting for the super-secret also rare Boss in Mook Clothing that may drop Dark Tablets in a New Game Plus! Unless you've found a high-level Tablet that has them, (or you received the special Tablet with Forbidden freebies on it in Judy's Quest) you're usually better off specializing in a character's best Element and not bothering with Forbidden Arts at all. | |

Useless Useful Spell | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_4c709317 | comment |
Useless Useful Spell: Trying to tag enemies with status ailments is worthless most of the time due to the effects not really being noticeable.note For example, casting the poisonous Degeneration spell on an enemy doesn't matter because you never get to see an enemy's HP so you won't know if it's poisoned or not. The only aversion to this rule is Blackout, since it's usually a One-Hit Kill on enemies not resistant to it and its effects are immediately clear. | |

Go Mad from the Isolation: Kurt's brother Leon gets assigned to guard-duty within the Vaftom Mausoleum.

Magic plays the trope a bit straighter. The power of most of your Magic-casters stems from their Element stats. not their Magic stat. Magic is little more than a minor damage modifier unless you're specifically using Forbidden Arts. (In which case, the preceding explanation is Inverted) Most players won't see Forbidden Arts until the end game unless they're Judy and / or you're grinding out Magic Tablets. | |

Dump Stat: Enforced. Due to the Luck-Based Mission that is the Growth Panel, having a Panel solely for dumping Skills onto when you're dealt a lousy set after a Quest is required for making it to the endgame and maintaining Panel Combos. Magic plays the trope a bit straighter. The power of most of your Magic-casters stems from their Element stats. not their Magic stat.

Stats Dissonance | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_5db5730d | comment |
Stats Dissonance: This game has it in spades. The "Evasion" label on a Shield doesn't increase your ability to evade - your Skill handles that. It's an estimate of your chances of the Shield blocking an attack, (amplified by whether you have a Shield Panel or not) which attacks it can block determined by the Abilities on it. Your Magic stat is not your base Magic damage; it's a multiplier. The damage done by an elemental spell is determined by your character's stat in that one Element. Unless it's a Forbidden Spell, which is powered solely by the Magic stat. Your Endurance and Spirit are your defense against status ailments (physical and magical, respectively) as opposed to typical defense stats. The armor you wear determines your baseline defense, amplified by any dampening abilities on the pieces and whether you have an Iron Body panel or not. And that's assuming you don't have a parrying weapon in your character's right hand, which only helps more. | |

Masterof None: Kurt. His stats/Makings are sub-par compared to the rest of the main characters, Water growth aside. This means he can fulfill any role he wants....he just can't do it as well as characters designed for said roles. Then there's The Gauntlet, which prevents his Growth Panel from really growing compared to everyone else's, only gimping him further. At least he has high LP.... Elementally, the Silver Girl is this. She has high Magic Making, but her elemental growth is mediocre across the board. | |

Arbitrary Headcount Limit | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_6aa10cf9 | comment |
Arbitrary Head Count Limit: Certain locations in the game (typically the arena in the Tribal Chief's Trial) enforce a limit of up to three active characters per round, forcing the party to cycle between formations in their roster if they wish to use everyone. Attempting to add a fourth person to the line-up will net you an error sound. An egregious example in Laura's Quest. The first battle against Dagul Bos can only be fought with one person per round. If you're paralyzed or KO'ed, you're done. If you manage to beat what essentially amounts to an impossible battle at this point in the game, you'll get an equippable MacGuffin that will otherwise be unobtainable for the rest of the game. The Knights of the Round Table are also fought with the three-person cap. Their evolved form, Phantom, is not. | |

Guide Dang It! | |

Guide Dang It!: Forget finding everyone you can recruit during a given quest, or even just finishing one — though those usually require help, too — just try muddling through the Character Customization without having a clue what you're doing! Or, y'know, don't. But fear not as there is a video tutorial explaining the basis of the game. The fittingly-named Secret Adventure is never hinted at in any way by the game or its mechanics. Unlocking it isn't complicated but is easily missed.note You need to exhaust all currently available Adventures without triggering plot points (or entering screens that do) that unlock your character's final quest. Then visit the Chief's hut in Chapa. Mythe and Judy have no access to Chapa or this hidden quest. Kurt must not defeat Agares within the Gauntlet, as it unlocks Starship Anchor early. | |

And can Paralyze you. Have fun! Enemies at Monster Rank 10 (the maximum rank) qualify, as many of them can be re-skins of sub-quest bosses you've fought previously. The Tao-Wu has a whopping 16 LP and can cast some pretty rare magic alongside mauling you like a Sabretiger. It's also so rare, you'll probably never see it. | |

Seemingly Hopeless Boss Fight: A subverted example in Laura's Quest. You'll fight Dagul Bos once you resolve the Elemental Gears quests. If you lose to him, (The typical result for someone new to the game) the game simply continues onward and they'll be the penultimate boss at the Nakle Lines. If you win against him however, (Which takes some side-questing and some knowledge of the game systems) you'll get a special piece of MacGuffin equipment for the featnote That otherwise wouldn't be available for the rest of the game. and Basil Galeos as your new penultimate boss. | |

While it looks like a regular Gucky on the map, it is quite a deal stronger than one and will randomly morph into different type of Guckies, using different attacks based on them. Thankfully, that monster won't go actively after your character and will even run away from it if you're too weak although some times the game geography will not allow it. It's also the only monster dropping Forbidden Magic Tablets. | |

Courier: There is the Carriers' Guild, which Ventus joins at the start of his scenario. Parts of his quest involve him making deliveries. In addition, he can take several optional Side Quests of this nature. While other characters can recruit him during their stories, they still can't access these special quests themselves. | |

Timey-Wimey Ball: It is never exactly stated which of the seven stories are canon, and which are "What If?" stories; which is annoying, as you can recruit other main characters in other stories. The developers recommend using Laura as your first character, so hers is most likely the main one. On that note, they never gave the game a timeline, either. The only thing closest to Canon would be that manga of Ruby's story that was made as promo material for the game in Japan. | |

Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: The Final boss. His existence is never properly explained, nor is it ever spoken of during any of the endings. It simply appears. However, it is hinted through battle dialogue and supplementary materials that it's the ultimate form of the power of the Seven Wonders. The fact that the battle takes place on the Twin Moons in space certainly supports that theory. | |

Can't Catch Up | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_94d2506d | comment |
Can't Catch Up: About a 1/3rd into the game, Guns will begin to lose damage output compared to the rest of your weaponry, making them obsolete by the time you're done with a story. Magic is something of a zig-zag. If you manage to spark the hilariously rare Magic Blender Panel, note Magic Blender is a special panel that allows you to synthesize spells in your arsenal (known spells, not spells you have by proxy of Familiars or Bestial weapons from magic shops) into new ones or power up existing spells by about 30-or-so percent. your generic mage has just quadrupled their casting ability and has become the perfect character to dump Tablets onto. However, if the odds are not in your favor, most Arts sans the Detect series, Purify and Missile Guard start to become less effective against tankier enemies; which soon become the norm thanks to Monster Rank. | |

Sword of Plot Advancement: In Laura's quest, you have at some point to collect the elemental gears , some of the best equipment you'll ever get in the game. Too bad that you don't get to keep them for the end of the game. (Unless you beat the Hopeless Boss Fight against Dagul Bos, which lets you snag the Gloves of Venus) Also, in Ventus's quest, at some point you eventually get Dragonheart which can be forged into a weapon that, while not that strong attack wise, have the effect of restoring your hps even if you're not in the back row. | |

Combos | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_991912ca | comment |
Combos: Players and opponents alike can chain any attack to deal big damage. However, if an opponent break your combo, you will only use a level 1 attack. However, if you start a combo off with a spell, you can usually perform 5 person combo, as spells have the slowest start time, and usually all the enemies will have taken a turn by then. On the other end, ending a string of physical attacks with a spell allows you to line up surprisingly easily high level attacks. | |

Disk One Nuke: Guns and magic. Early in the game, they'll easily one shot most opponents. In the case of guns, all you need is a gun and a gun panel on your character, no techs need to be sparked. As for magic, it's not that it is bad in the end of the game but it will require more efforts than for physical attacks. But done well the result can be surprising. Bows and Daggers can be this, depending on your luck with the Spark rates. Getting the Level 3 or 4 Warning Shot/Blitz attacks at any point in the game (usually when fighting a hard boss) renders almost every standard enemy moot due to the semi-frequent Instant Death effect. | |

Anti-Frustration Feature: In Armic's quest, if you end up in a situation in which all side and main quests are completed without having reached the item list quota, (Or lacking a method to reach it, as shops/markets are only shuffled when a quest is done) speaking to the Village Chief in Chapa Village will grant you access to the Secret Dungeon. Aside from Judy and Mythe, the other characters can access this too; but only in Armic's story does it serve a purpose. Speaking of Armic's Quest, choosing to have Yun decipher the Water Element was previously thought to have simply soft-locked your quest progress permanently.note As a deterrent wasn't originally assumed to have been programmed in. This video instead demonstrates that Yun will simply shuffle into a different Element should Water be chosen prematurely. | |

Boring Yet Practical: The Sinker attack. While it won't do much damage, it lowers your opponent Strength, making it a must at the beginning of long battles. Also, being a Level 2 kick skill available on all type of martial arts, it's easily available on several levels and don't cost any weapon durability either. Water is this for Magic. While it doesn't have a very long library of attack spells, the inventory of support and healing spells make it a must for any mage, even if they have bad Water growth. It's just that useful. | |

Ambition Is Evil: Clyde Blackstorm was once friends with Yun Crimsonrain and Josef. However, using Forbidden magic to pursue the Forbidden Spell made him power-hungry, and he severed ties with the both of them. As Leon spends his time handling inactive duties in the Vaftom Mausoleum, he develops an inferiority complex toward his brother and begins yearning for a better position. If Kurt defeats Domilat, Leon snaps and fights his brother at Starship Anchor atop the Arcanian Mech. Thankfully, he gets better. | |

The Blade of Escata in Laura's Quest seems like a decent weapon given its infinite durability and its incremental gains in strength during the "Elemental Gears" portion. But, you lose practically all of the Macguffins (and the blade-boosts they provide) anyway when you hand them to Basil and you'll only retain the fifth if you beat a Seemingly Hopeless Boss Fight. A forged Dagger is more useful than this thing nine times out of ten. | |

In battle, he has the second-highest Endurance in the game, the highest LP count of any character in Ventus's story, and has a decent Water growth. A consistent tank that can probably heal you if you develop him? Yes, please! It gets better. The locations of both his magic and best elemental stats (water) unlike several characters are not in conflict, allowing you to build as one of the best if not the best water mage in the game. Get a high level attack water spell like Ice needle and you will rain destruction on your opponents! | |

Luck Manipulation Mechanic: Whenever a Tabletop RPG player would have to roll a die, instead you press a button to stop a spinning reel, giving the player a greater degree of control over the outcome.

Evil vs. Evil: A subversion. The Ensanguined League is a group of humans aiding the Vampire Lord Kalandorn in defeating the Knights of the Round Table, a group of mystic knights that have controlled the Undead for centuries. The League gets too little backstory to determine where on the moral axis they fall, only opposing Ventus and company because he's seeking both the MacGuffin they're after and revenge on their leader; who seems to be a rather honorable chap all things considered. | |

Evolving Attack | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_abc66b07 | comment |
Evolving Attack: Sometime, when using a basic physical attack, your character will "spark" a improved version of that attack which can be used again if you time the reel right to land on a higher level attack. For example, by using the Random Arrowshot which shoot a volley of arrow at the enemy group, you might eventually spark the Rain of Arrows attack or the Parashots attack which shoot homing energy shot at every opponent. To make it happen more easily, you fight stronger monsters which have an higher spark rank and equip weapon panels which make it easier to spark those attack and then much, much easier to land on a high level attack on the reel. The same can be done with some spells if you have the Magic Blender Panel by using a specific spell as a base and then adding up other spells you know in the hope of getting something new. For example, Boulder can be upgraded into Pellet which is Boulder on steroids. | |

Breakable Weapons: All weapons but one (including shields and accessories allowing to cast spells) have durability points. If it reaches 0, it can still be used in the current battle (merciful against bosses) but not the next one. The Quick Fix panel allow you to restore the durability of unequipped weapons up to 20 but if you mess up, it lower it instead. The Recycle spell will raise the durability of equipped weapons up to 30. And finally, for a more durable option, you can forge weapons's durability up to 99 if you have access to the proper blacksmith. To put things in perspective, you use 5 attacks in a battle round, most attacks cost 1 durability, some cost 2 although they are worth the extra cost... usually. | |

Knight Templar | |

Knight Templar: The Iskandar Knighthood's Temple Knight branch is chock-full of holier-than-thous that toll postal workers, take jobs from mercenaries and treat their colleagues like dirt. And they're the good guys. | |

Life Drinker: The Knights of the Round Table directly implicate themselves as such when they complain about The Silver Girl "not giving them much life" prior to fighting them. It may explain why they've held sway over the Undead for so long. | |

Necromancer | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_c81e2bba | comment |
Necromancer: A possible subversion. The Knights of the Round Table have, according to Kalandorn, controlled the Undead for centuries. The Ensanguined League he spear-heads is working to un-do this; though we never find out what "this" actually entails. Certain sub-quests have an actual Necromancer as the end boss, who summons four-or-so Undead to guard them as they pelt you with Magic. | |

| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_d001c42c | comment |
Anti-Villain: Kalandorn. Possibly. Yun's more of a straightforward example. He only wanted to be a mage of equal caliber to Leith Torles and didn't seem to have any malicious intent, but chose to pursue such power by nearly condemning an entire tribe of Beast Men to their deaths by absconding with the magical rain-making equipment that HE helped to find. He's Easily Forgiven. Leon Burgundy only developed resentment towards his father and brother because of how long he spent isolated in the Vaftom Mausoleum. He's also Easily Forgiven. | |

Developer's Foresight: In Ruby's quest, if you attempt to access the Pharos Ruins in Iskandaria before being assigned the option to enter its associated Wonder in Torle, a pop-up will announce "You're here too soon" and boot you back to the town screen. | |

We Cannot Go On Without You: It's a SaGa game. HP isn't important; lose all your LP and you lose that ally for the duration of the current quest. Lose all of your Main character's LP at anytime, however..... Sometimes though, letting your main character hide in the back row is an option. | |

Anti-Climax: Players who have played Judy's story are aware of the Forbidden Spell subplot. At the end of Armic's story, guess what the penultimate boss can use? It's been built up as the ultimate spell, but....It's just a palette swap of the Shock spell with a black background that does only 1 LP damage to whatever is hit. What. | |

Anti-Grinding | |
| Unlimited Saga (Video Game) / int_f11c3835 | comment |
Anti-Grinding: There are only so many side-quests players can take. It is totally possible to do everything available to you and be forced into doing a character's final adventure just to leave the hub screens. This makes planning out skill distribution even more important. Especially enforced in Armic's quest. The game is designed in such a way that you have to adhere to the list and go to other towns to get other materials. Trying to game the system by sheltering in one town is impossible. Averted with Ventus meanwhile, who can take carrier jobs forever. This makes his party the most likely to ever see Level 5 Panels. | |

Easily Forgiven: Exaggerated. After Armic's party defeats Yun and Chaos, the only response to the fact that Yun tried to murder him and steal all of his items for ultimate power is something along the lines of "I can relate, fights over fish get weird" before just going home. | |

Heroic Neutral: Mythe, compared to the other protagonists. An apathetic Jerkass towards others in his dogged pursuit of the Silver-Haired Girl. He was a simple inventor who was perfectly content snarking at others every day of his life until he sees the picture that springs him into a pilgrimage. Armic also qualifies. He's only on his quest because his Village Chief ordered him to undertake it. | |
