Mastu

Post by chosenofmana7 »

How do Mastu's classes work. I know he prefers not to use his Broad Sword but, it should still be usable. Can Mastu weapon change like Haseo or is he trapped with his Steam Guns? If he can change how do you make him change, you can't change ally equiptment in GU like in IMOQ(Sadly)

Also off topic but is whether Saku or Bo appears random or is it influanced by the story?

Saku and Bo are random, but is sometimes influenced by story.

Yes you can, have you ever tried? I don't know if you can make matsu an Edge Punisher at will, but you can deffinately change his equpment.

Matsu never uses his Edge Punisher Class as an ally, so he functions as a Steam Gunner in the game.

Either that or it's a lot easier to make an AI Adept Rogue that only uses one class than to use all. Think of it this way, you don't want your ally to change weapons but he does. They would probably need to make a new option where you tell your Adept Rogue ally which class weapon he shold use.

Actually all they'd have to do is when you're stratagy for that char is on free will they change the weapon as it sees fit, but if you have it on another stratagy, you manually change it for them. Not too difficult. (Personally I liked how you had more options for your allies in the first four. Plus it had a quick access menu just by pushing square.)

It's not difficult to make an AI of a character that can change equipment on its own...PSU has alot of that.
That disappoints me though, because then that would mean you'll never fight against an Adept Rogue; at least, not someone who can use Weapon Change (they'll stick with 1 weapon)

And what about Yowkow(Alkaid)? As far as I remember she´s a Adept Rogue too, does she uses any other weapon than twin blades or stick with them for the rest of the game?

Alkaid is a Twin Blade
The only Adept Rogue in Haseo's team, other than Haseo himself, is Matsu

*phweeeet!!*
okay we get it alkaid is a twin blade no more 'she's a twin blade'
words (i read through about 5 of those and hope to stop them)
and cant you manually change your allies weapons in vol2?
(it wasn't available in vol1)
so if i where to give matsu a Broad Sword he wouldn't equip it?
..can someone get a screenshot of his status screen?
i want to confirm it will show weapon levels for both

Well, the closest you can get to that is Doppelganger.

Still, that just changes based on the trigger set off by your own change... but yeah, that is the closest you can get. Disappointing to hear you'll never fight an Adept Rogue.
