Let's Play Legend Of Dragoon!

Episode 9 - Where's That Quina?

https://youtu.be/8E4j7-gtZP0


Hey peoples, we were told to come to the Marshlands and find the seventh fort here, so we fight back the enemies here :D. This place has a nice, unique bit where you ride a boat through the swamp and I kind of love that. Especially when the reward for it all is an extra good, multiple use item ;). Otherwise, there's not too much to say that isn't already in the vid, so I'll see you next time when we check out the volcano; we all know that volcanoes are always amazing in JRPGs ;).

Thanks for watching! :)
 
Okay just to let you know that status effect is known as stun, what that mini boss did against you with that yellow ball and the red lasers hitting you. Also note on the additions you want to take them all to 80, reason being if for learning the ultimate additions. For example you see Dart has 7 additions but he will learn only 6 of them, you need to master(get to 80) the first 6 for him to unlock his seventh. Also don't forget to heal with guard in battles it can save you on the cost of your healing items outside of battle. This is for when you cut out your battles so you don't need to show it.
 
Now let's get disc 2 and kick it off with a bang. We are gonna start in the castle town of Fletz where the bulk of disc 2 will take place. See that church looking building, and now see the house with a table on top next to it, inspect it for stardust number 1. When you get inside the bar finally and after the first scene when you can inspect the barrels inspect them for grand old stardust number 2. Are other three are in the shops around town, one each in the weapon, item, and jewelry shop. For the jewelry one inspect the blue stone near the bottom of the shop, for the weapon the bottom left corner that has weapons visible, and for the item check the telescope or the bottles at the top north of the shop. Now we do story line stuff and Dart loses his spirit for a while, because of addition grinding and using our new party member Dart is usually lvl 4-5 around by now(only a recommendation). As we get into Donau there are two stardust here to get, when we get control of our crew again inspect the well of the town, when we get to the mayors house check the upper left corner.

Now as we head back to Feltz and when we can explore the castle there is yet another two stardust to find. As we enter the statue to the right has one but can't be gotten till after the meeting with the king. Also when we gain control go off the screen to the right or left and when outside head to the purple door and inspect the alter, might be the middle or the right door. Now as we get into the home of the Gigantos and after the boss fight, inspect the right torch for the start dust there, this brings our grand total to 30. Now that we have Darts spirit back and another new party member we have to decide whether or not to get his spirit early or not in the game which is entirely optional. If so we need to head back to Donau and watch a scene there and catch the flower bouquet, and after that we head back to the town of Lohan and talk to the merchant again remember the guy that tried to scam us with that water bottle? Well turns out he found Kongol's Dragoon spirit, and it can be your for a mere 1,000 gold.
 
Episode 10 - Virage's Volcano

https://youtu.be/qFly3TMnGhc


Hey peoples! Volcano Villude is our next dungeon on the way to the dragon's nest and it's full of so many dangers! Shana decides to uncover one of them in the form of Virage; apparently, killing the body first allows the head to carry on fighting. I'm pretty sure you get a reward for doing this but I'm not certain what I got for doing it.

We also take on the giant Fire Bird, who is a much easier boss after Virage. Just go all out and use your water items and you're sorted ;).

Thanks for watching! I love volcanoes so this was a great dungeon for me. Even the Eiko-like falling merchant didn't put me off (quite the opposite sirs and madams ;)). Anyways, see you in a bit!
 
okay forgot the game didn't give you a tutorial on status ailments. Those blue skulls bit is known as fear, and your mind purifier can cure it also fear reduces the damage you deal by half while doubles the damage you receive. Rose was afflicted with Disspirit and the mind purifier can cure that as well. Typically the ailments first letter is whats used for the items as to what it cures. Amending to my previous post so you see this bit easier. When you get to the Valley of Corrupted Gravity there is going to be some rock fire flies there, so it's a good spot to addition grind to make them stronger and maybe get some dragoon levels.

Episode 11 - Dragon's Den

https://youtu.be/PjIktLhQxIU


Why hello again! We're finally heading into the Nest of Dragons this time around, which is pretty fun actually. While I don't normally like areas in games that have the whole poison thing going for it, this time around there's no gimmick based off it and it's only there for aesthetics and for story reasons.

That maze sure looked tough (the one with all the flowers and purple light thingies) but it turns out to only have a few ways to go after all (my kinda maze!). Very relieved about that one :).

Thanks for watching! We'll be going for the boss next time ha!
 
Episode 12 - The Almighty Greham!

https://youtu.be/s3VsOB9utAY


What a name for an almighty boss lmao! Greham, we're terrified...really :wacky:.

Anyways! Welcome back peoples! This time around we wrap up the Nest Of Dragons dungeon with the boss...well, bosses. Greham and the dragon sounds like a cartoon or something. Peter and the Dragon? Was that a thing? ANYWAY! It's a boss this time lmao. Pretty tough since Greham can do a tonne of damage against one party member (around 100 damage, in fact), though that may be because Lavitz is still stuck on some pretty basic armour. I'll let you have a wee look at how the fight goes :).

Other than that, Lavitz finally gets something extra special: his dragoon spirit! This is a really good one too when you level him up; it gives you every reason to keep him in your party once you have more choice.

Thanks for watching! Since Shana is ever so slightly poisoned (yeah, she didn't seem to become immune to that poison in the air after all, funnily enough), we now have to head on over to the city of Lohan! See you there! :)
 
Episode 13 - Death Awaits Shana

https://youtu.be/J0Je5ZgFbwg


Hey folks! The commercial town of Lohan reminds me a bit of that end part of Uzumaki, where all the people pull themselves together to make a maze. Not quite as creepy here but it gives me the willies :s. Either way, it's time for another stardust hunt and a nice bit of exploration while Shana is dying in bed.

Other than that, we head back to the Nest of Dragons to obtain some Life Water and find the other exit! It looks like we have a nice, peaceful shrine next time, in search of the rare Dragoni Plant :D.

Thanks for watching! :)
 
Episode 14 - A Shrine? Shirley Not!

https://youtu.be/F51ufPOqa6k


Hey there peoples, are you ready for the Shrine of Shirley? This is our first puzzle dungeon and is actually really fun! From the dragon statue puzzle (God forbid you get THAT wrong), to the minecart/number puzzle, it's all really good fun! Don't bother going for the treasure chests though unless you want some bad grammar thrown your way lmao ;). I love the music here, by the way. It really relaxes me somehow.

As for the first boss, Drake is simple enough. Just use multi-target attacks for the bombs (magic) and take the webs down with any old attacks before going back to Drake himself. Nothing tough there lol. As for Shirley herself? It's a unique fight; all the answers are in the vid :).

Thanks for watching! We'll check on Shana next time :).

Episode 15 - Tournaments And Tootsie Pops

https://youtu.be/s4AS4OfYq9s


'ello peoples, welcome back to Lohan! This time around we take care of Shana and enter a tournament! the tourny takes a while due to the enemies having time-consuming gimmicks, but all in all it's a nice change of pace from the regular dungeons/town-exploring we've been doing throughout.

Thanks for watching peoples! We shall have our date next time ;).

P.S. Just who is that Lloyd anyway? Mysterieeeeees :gasp:.
 
Episode 16 - Date Time!

https://youtu.be/fpP_GndJc8E


Hey there peoples! It seems that Dart and Shana are going to have a date now that the arena has opened up as a minigame arena (who knew they even fancied each other? Bizarre!). So, we try those out for a wee bit and find that I'm amazingly good at them, then we try to leave.

Thing is...it seems that we have a pretty big reason to head back to Hellena Prison! We must save...him! ;)

I almost forgot to mention that we have a new party member (a pretty big thing to forget lmao). Haschel is a martial artist and I can see why people like old men who fight but...he doesn't even have a dragoon ha! :eek:

Thanks so much for watching guys and dolls. I'm really enjoying making this series so it's good to see the support :).

P.S. This area reminds me of the Golden Saucer for minigame reasons. There's even a plot point where the main character goes on a date! The similarities are endless. Well, they end there. Wait! There's even a sort of battle square in the form of a tournament. Hmmm, can anyone think of any more? :s
 
Episode 17 - Albert In A Can

https://youtu.be/GxHCfJ5l7jg


Hey there folks, do you remember back in the day when we visited Hellena Prison to save Shana (after getting absolutely no hints to do so)? Do you remember when there were a few ways blocked off that we couldn't visit? Well, now we can! It's time for us to head back into the prison (with the help of Lavitz' amazing jumping abilities) and save King Albert! He's gonna be beheaded :(.

With that, we explore and end up taking on Jiango; the prison bitch! Er...dog. Pet dog :/. He's not so bad and a few astral drains both keep you alive and take him down. You may want to go the extra mile and use the secret little trick too. If you fancy it :).

As for the date...apparently it didn't go so well. Dart still thinks of Shana as his little sister :(.

Thanks for watching! See you next time for the rest of the dungeon! We'll save him and all will be happy and full of rainbows, I'm sure :).
 
Episode 18 - In Lavitz We Trust

https://youtu.be/qYQPsVo2Vxo


Hey there folks, welcome to the end of Hellena Prison! There's a surprising death this time around (like...the permanent sort of death), but who could it be? :eek:

Before that though, we have ourselves a boss to fight: Fruegel and his two cronies! I decided to take the "kill the midgets before the big guy" approach, but I'm sure it could be easier to use items/magic that hit all enemies at once or something :).

Thanks for watching! It turns out we're heading towards the Black Castle next, to have a "word" with Doel. Hopefully we can take him down and save the world at the end of disc 1? ;)

P.S. I kept saying that this was the end of disc 1 (how embarrassing!), but it's not. We're nearly there though ha!

P.P.S. I'm gonna give that Lloyd a right slap next time I see him! He seemed like an arrogant dick at the arena but this... :/.
 
Episode 19 - Quizzing In Kazas

https://youtu.be/5UWGQEfgfxA


Hey there peoples, we need to infiltrate the black castle and confront Emperor Doel but his castle seems to be on lockdown! We need to find another way in, within the surrounding city of Kazas!

6 stardust??? Get outta here! Well ok, let's get looking lmao ;). There's also a great shop here so that's nice. Still no better sword for Dart though lmao. Well gee whizz! Still, a good old-fashioned quiz will perk us up a bit ha.

Thanks so much for watching! I guess we'd better check out the black castle itself next, huh? :)

P.S. Honestly, this isn't my favourite town in the game so far (it's probably the complete opposite), but it's only small so I'm not too bothered. I just wish I could remember what you're supposed to do with that guy who lost his door key :/.
 
Episode 20 - The Colourful Black Castle

https://youtu.be/AlpaSNUvlsw


Hey folks, it looks like we have ourselves a Black Castle to climb if we want to meet up with Emperor Doel! It's actually quite a tough place to navigate, especially with the 3 coloured stones to find along the way to the very top (red, blue and yellow); I like how they hint towards the 3 colours you need at that scientist's place, via the 3 coloured flasks. Can you imagine missing any stones and having to explore the whole of the castle again? I can see being stuck here being really annoying lol :s.

Thanks for watching! I love this place (it feels really involved) so it's good to have more coming next time! See you in a bit :).
 
Sorry peoples, no episode today. Tough times in the greeny household have left me in the opposite of the right mood to record. I'll see you tomorrow.
 
Okay so here is another tip section for the bit of the game since I had a bit of a lengthy one last time that covered Disc 2 and with how short the next upcoming sections are I will just be wrapping up Disc 2. Following whether or not to get Kongols Dragoon Spirit we head back to Felts Castle as a sneaky dungeon bit, kinda like Zelda OoT, you have to avoid the guards spotting you. If you missed the previous two stardust before well you have ample time to get them now and a couple more times as well. The following boss is gonna be a hard one just for the fact it's a water boss opposite of Dart and she has high magic attack, which makes Dart and Albert natural enemies of this fight since they have bad M-DEF. Next we get to hop on the major boar of the game which is the Queen Fury where we can find two stardust. When we have control of Shana we are to go downstairs where we see Kongol, check the box with the lamp next to him For our second one we enter the cabin through one of those three doors and check the pipe at the right. Our next point of interest is the ghost ship, we now have a free healing point on the ship so a good spot to grind some additions. Also with the treasure chest if we do the puzzle five times we can get an ultimate wargod(completes additions automatically full damage and sp) check the glowing point in the far right for the numbers then got to play a puzzle game and make a guess with three of the four. The boss here is a set of five enemies and you want to try and kill them all together or they start reviving one another.

Now we are on the small town of Lidiera enter the largest house here as a starting point. See that small enclosed area that's our goal, so go outside and climb the ladder then climb down the other to get inside and inspect the cabinet at the right. Now we get to the town of Funeo for the last two stardust of the disc, go to the right of the item/weapon shop into the hospital and enter it check the painting to the right. Now we go to the inn which is on the left side of the hospital and we check the barrels under the stairs. Congrats with this we should now be at 35 stardust with 15 left to go, we're nearly there. Now for the last dungeon it's gonna be a water boss again oh boy it's gonna be round 2 with who we fought in Feltz except this time she will be in dragoon form and have an accompanying dragon with her. DO NOT SPECIAL in this fight or be in special as the fight ends, there is a glitch that can occur which will freeze your game. It's best just to avoid trying to be in dragoon form as the fight ends overall. Other then that try taking her down first so you can manage the dragons attacks a little easier. After the fight is done congrats if you got Kongols spirit way back when now all of your party is dragoon capable, let wreak havoc the dogs of war. Well mosey on your way back to Felts for cut scenes a nice little romance between Dart and his lover(who could it be) and we round the end of disc 2 and we get started towards disc 3.

Till next time, now bulk of tips might be on some of the bosses as we are nearing the end of the stardusts.
 
Episode 21 - Doel Ends Disc 1!

https://youtu.be/W4F_CMAnlTs


Why hello there! Today we're taking on the last of disc 1! The Black Castle at Kazas is now being all wrapped up, but before that can really be said, we have to take down two bosses!

We met Kongol back in Hoax, but now he has hella armour! He's still pretty much the same though and Albert is our best bet since he's wind (Kongol's elemental opposite); simple times so long as you can do your additions pretty much perfectly.

Then there's Emperor Doel himself! Phase one is simple, with you just dealing a few attacks, but phase 2 is much tougher. So long as you have a healer and/or a few healing breezes you should be ok, but I think my strategy in the vid is pretty solid. It's just when that barrier goes up that it reaches the hardest point :s.

Thanks for watching! We'll kick off disc 2 next time! :lew:
 
Episode 22 - The Bemusing Town Of Fletz

https://youtu.be/nYhNUhwFivM


Hey peoples, disc 2 is starting! Our new objective is to hunt down Lloyd (hell, look at that chapter title ha). While doing this though, there are 5 stardust to find in the seaside town of Fletz, along with a few interesting people to meet! Speaking of...what's up with that Princess Emille? Or is it Emile... ;).

There's also something about a moon, but God knows what that's about. I was more interested in seeing how stunning the town looks at night. Reeeeeally nice.

Oh, we also find something really great at the end, if you happen to use Shana! Who saw that drop coming? :gasp:

Thanks for watching! See you next time for the Barrens and possibly Donau too? ;)
 
Episode 23 - Mappi's Greatest Theft!

https://youtu.be/R59cYrPUY0w


Ok, so Donau is an absolutely stunning town, so I just had to show off the music there at the start. It's my favourite town to date, for sure. I'd love to live there :s.

Other than that though, there's a theft in the Barrens beforehand! Dart has now become a wee bit shit compared with the rest of the party. That includes Meru: our new party member! She's water elemental and is really speedy! Just...really weak too. Got a healing spell up her sleeves though so that's pretty darn great ;).

Thanks for watching! See you next time when we head back to Fletz! :)
