Ophilia, concerned: I'm going to ask you to be respectful.

Cyrus, pissed: I will politely decline.

Partitio: The man before you is a sober as the day he was born

Osvald: You are still drinking

Partitio: This is Goats milk

Osvald: It is brown

Partitio: It was an ugly goat

Temenos: Sure, you may be verified on Twitter. But are you verified in the eyes of Aelfric?

[rainbow-kandi-korn22]

Temenos: Pontiff?

Pontiff Jörg: Yes, my son?

Temenos: Does Aelfric hate you if you're gay?

Pontiff Jörg: Of course not!

Temenos:

Temenos: Oh.

Obligatory first post!

I wrote all of this on the main page of this blog, but I'll share it again so people can see what type of content this blog will have! Info under the cut!

A blog by @blazlngblade to share silly no context posts with the Barrad Crew, a group of Travelers from Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent.

The main group consists of: Barrad, Dorothea, Durand, Narr, Cecily, Paula, Elletrix, and Leon

Frequently recurring characters are: Ned, W'ludai, Baltazar, Ivri, Gacco, Wappa, and Varet

Characters that sometimes appear or referenced: Shelby, Vanessa, Glossom, Viola, + more

Shippings that this blog will include: Barrad/Dorothea (Barrathea) Leon/Elletrix (Elleon) Narr/W'ludai Paula/Varet Leon/Baltazar + many pairings that get minorly referenced, but aren't main ships.

Most of the posts will be no context tumblr or twitter posts that I think just kind of worked for the members of the Barrad Crew.

I'll also share incorrect quotes, as well as some silly things that involve this group of Travelers.

Might also occasionally reblog artwork of the travelers involved on this blog, however I'll only ever tag characters that involve the Barrad Crew. (Example: if I reblog art of Leon that has Tressa in it, I will not tag Tressa)

I think that's all I can say for now! This will serve as a pinned post until I can make a more thought out one introducing each Traveler more properly with small profiles of canon and headcanon information.

That all aside, I hope the posts here are enjoyable to see! I'll try to post a no context post on most days I can!

Octopath II gameplay tips!

I'd been thinking about this for a while, but since I have mutuals who are playing 8path2, here's a list of advice and things the game doesn't explain!

Incorrect/vague skill descriptions:

The Warrior skill "Enervating Slash": The description is flat-out wrong. This will remove all positive status effects from the USER, rather than the targeted enemy!

"Increased intensity spells" courtesy of the Scholar job: So wtf does this even mean? It gives you a counter that causes the next x number of AREA TARGET SPELLS to be "intensified". For instance, the Cleric's "Heal Wounds" skill can be intensified, but NOT the Apothecary's "Healing Touch" skill. For elemental-based spells, such as Fireball, this causes it to trigger twice (or three times if using Alephan's Wisdom).

Throné's EX skill "Disguise": When used on an ally, Throné takes on their job(s) and learned skills. Sadly, because she doesn't also take on their equipment stats (to my knowledge; I haven't actually verified this), it means she's usually not optimized for their fighting style.

Partitio's EX skill "Share SP": This also has a flat-out wrong description. He gives a percentage of his SP to EACH party member, not just one. For instance, without boosting, he will lose 25% of his max SP and every other party member will gain whatever that amount is. And yes, they'll get it even if it puts them above their normal max SP! Partito rocks!

The Apothecary job’s “Preventative Measures” support skill: Rather than nullifying status ailments for the first 3 turns of battle (as the description says), it nullifies the first three status effects to target the user. So if the user isn’t hit with a status effect until turn 4, it will still be nullified, but if they’re hit with 4 status effects within the first three turns, the 4th will still take effect.

Battle interface:

"Status ailments" include Poison (take damage each turn), Sleep (unable to act until hit), Unconsciousness (unable to act, period), Blindness (greatly reduced accuracy), Terror (unable to boost), Silence (unable to use skills) and Confusion (target a random ally until hit).

"Positive status effects" and "negative status effects" include buffs/penalties to stats, as well effects like temporary HP regen, Sidestep/Vengeful Blade charges, etc. Note that the Cleric skill "Sacred Shield" does NOT appear next to the character's name, and therefore does not count as a "positive status effect"

The order of enemy weaknesses is something you'll see mentioned in any guide/trivia about the game, and it's incredibly helpful. Weaknesses are always listed in the same order: Sword, Polearm, Dagger, Axe, Bow, Staff, Fire, Ice, Thunder, Wind, Light, and Dark (SPD ABS FIT WLD). So for instance, if I determine that an enemy is weak to daggers and the dagger icon is in the first square, I know that enemy CANNOT be weak to swords or polearms, because those would be listed first.

Traveler talents:

Don't forget that Osvald's Study Foe talent reveals more weaknesses each time he encounters the same enemy!

Remember to have Partitio in your party in order to take advantage of his Business Partners talent! For instance, if Parti's follower gives a discount when buying things, this applies not only to NPCs he Purchases from but also shops if he happens to be in the party. Similarly, you may want to pick up a follower that earns more from sales before you sell off a bunch of junk. And if his follower gives a refund at the inn, you can refill your whole party's meters for free as long as you keep Partitio in your party.

Dancer skills that will activate Agnea's Dance Session talent include: Lion Dance (Dance Session targets the ally), Peacock Strut (Dance Session targets the ally), Dagger Dance (Dance Session targets Agnea), and Bewildering Grace (Dance Session targets a random party member). Ruinous Kick, Stimulate, and Sweeping Gale will NOT trigger a Dance Session.

If you want to go into a dungeon you're just under-leveled for, try taking both Throné and Temenos and clearing it at night. Blessing of Darkness and Moonlight Judgement together can give a huge advantage, especially once you're higher-level.

Miscellaneous:

Caits and Octopuffs have absurdly high evasion and elemental defense, but give you massive rewards if defeated. They will often flee the battlefield if ANY enemy has taken damage by the time their turn comes around. Usually the best way to defeat them is to hammer them will all your strongest magic, as spells can't miss and have a minimum damage of 1. Use of Stimulate, Leghold Trap, and the A Step Ahead support skill can come in handy to push their turns back. As @limayde mentioned, Medium and Large Soulstones can also defeat most of them instantly!

Healing (via skills) is based on the caster’s elemental defense. Therefore, it’s a good idea to give your healers equipment with high Elem. Def!

He won’t believe that I had about an hour of free time today and I spent it scribbling some incorrect octopath traveler quotes ✍️⌛️

Cyrus: I like my women like I like my vodka.

Primrose: Straight.

Cyrus: What? No, I prefer wine.

[alan8tor]

Primrose: I am not gonna just sit and have dinner with you after you tried to kill me and just broke into my house

Throne: I did not try to kill you-A-I put you on a wire to remove an obstacle, and B-I did not break anything. I am way to talented than that. And C-…Stop being so defensive.

Alrond, to Partitio: I don’t normally chase after the men I’m interested in. But for you, Partitio, a bitch might just power walk.

[ardentrhyme]

Partitio: What is, in your opinion, the most common lie?

Osvald, Throne, and Temenos at the same time: I’m fine.

Partitio:

Partitio: I was going to say “I have read the terms and conditions,” but now I’m genuinely worried about y'all.
