Topic: Kid Icarus: Uprising Spotpass Weapons

I found all the Zodiac chambers yesterday and I still got a ??? gem today. My guess was it was a weapon with a characters name, and my guess was right. Now I gotta hunt those down.

In crisis mode? What if I shoot while in crisis mode and as the shot travels I got out of the crisis mode and with that shot I defeat the boss? XD

@Sonicman You're probably also a better Taurus Arm user. Being someone who prefer Samurai Blade, I'm used to shorter Melee range, so I bothered walking all the way to the enemy to hit them. Something Arms do have to do.

About your Taurus Arm,
Why choose Walking Speed over Running Speed? Don't you usually run with Melee weapon?
Also, you don't need any defense boost modifiers if you're going to use Aries Armour as they don't stack. It's only good if you survive longer than Aries Armour durability. Or if you have a low value weapon which will cause Aries Armour to spawn back after more than one death.

In a Taurus Arm, I think Speed/Running Speed is good because it's too slow. Or I'm just too used to my Quick Samurai Blade.

It's not a Taurus Arm but still a Melee weapon, I'm currently working on this:
Raptor/Bear Claws
Value 264
Melee: 6
Running Speed+4
Effect Duration+4
Melee Combo+4
Melee Dash Attack+4 (Optional)
Stamina+4 (Optional)
In-Peril Attack Boost-4 (Only if I have either or both of the Optional)

Yes, I can send the drawing in Swapnote but I think it ruins the quality? Don't expect it today; I need to finish this other drawing because my SD card has reach its limit and cannot hold another Painting until I delete one. I'm not even sure if I want to draw today, it's horribly hot, I'm practically fainting.
If you do plan to get Colors!3D, just a warning, the community is stupid. @Spire seems to be enjoying it.

@Sherman If that happens, then do the level again!
For all achievement about defeating bosses in Crisis mode, I count how many Charge Shot/Dash Charge Shot it takes to kill the boss. Then, I did the level again and shot the times I need to before killing the boss, then I allow the boss to attack me until Crisis.

Some people suggest Trade-Off but I didn't need to do that.

You need to unlock Centurion Orbitars. That weapon is amazing. It can OHKO (Counting the 2 arrows/shields you shoot) with only 6 Ranged stars. It's somewhat Bow like. It used to be one of my main weapon until I fuse it away.

@Ruceyod But come on, look at what you need to do to unlock it. On my level, that's 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% impossible. I'm so dang tempted to Feather it, but it ruins the picture. Should I feather it?

@Ruceyod I usually walk when I get close to a person so I can combo them instead of dash attack. I've currently made a optical blade with 4 and ½ stars melee, melee combo +4, and speed +4, currently working on getting more stars/making it a taurus, any more fusing advice? May try effect duration if I need to raise the value more, I'm gonna go test how much longer it adds to Aries Armour.

@Sherman I unlocked them by getting down to crisis mode, activate brief invincibility, and attack like crazy! Go on a low difficulty, and don't be afraid to damage him, but not too much.

@Anyone I got a 6 Star Range, 6 Star Melee Optical Blade Valued at 274 with junk mods. Any recommendations on powers for the blade?

25 Seconds without Effect Duration +4 for Aries Armour, 32 Seconds with. That's a seven second difference, may try it (didn't even try lightweight o3o.)
EDIT: Lightweight = 32 Seconds without, 42 seconds with, now I NEED this!

@PikminMonster Didn't you already ruin the picture anyway? Also, didn't you have a problem about being unable to fusion a weapon you unlock through feather? If you don't care about completing the treasure hunt 100%, I say go for it.

@Sonicman I use Effect Duration for Brief Invincibility. It's 5 seconds! that's OP!! I want to run it in every Melee weapons and Staves I use.

@Knuckles The only bad things Optical Blade have are its weak attack and weak homing but I don't think you need powers that correct its cons. You should go with anything you want.

I know, @Ruceyod. I'm not complaining, I said it 'cause it'll be like this incredible-one-in-a-million-stupid-trolling-irony. It'd actually make me laugh very hard XD But for those achievements I think i'm gonna go at 2.0 if not 0.0. Trying to get them at the first run. Sucks that I don't have much time to play and worst if I have to replay something just 'cause a little mistake.
Don't use the feathers. I don't know what they do, but don't, haha. It's just I never use that kind of help, I never use hints or anything like that. I'm gonna unlock everything the way it has to be done =P

@Sherman Are you saying you finish Professor Layton without hint coins? Somehow doubtful -insert Pit's pountin gface here-

Anyone beat the Boss Rush challenge on Hard difficulty yet?

@Sonicman OK. Thanks. Although I'm trying to achieve the "Clear every chapter on 5.0 or higher " panel, so I'm doing it on 5.0, which is probably a bad idea.

Didn't finish it. I was playing it when I got KI:U. Left it unfinished. But, yeah, I was playing it without hints. Hits take a lot of fun out of a puzzle. I don't even like Gizmo telling me where the coins are. I reseted the game everytime he pointed at something 'cause I wanted the Gizmo help counter be at "0". I wish I never completed it u_u
I'm O.K. at puzzles games n_n Finished Blocks With Letters On without using hints or clues or looking for the word. Word! =)

@Ruceyod I have a breakthrough! I managed to get a 270 Laser Staff, 5 1/2 stars range, with Dash +4, and Standing +3. Should I take it? Also how much is 5 1/2 off in range from 6 stars in range?

@Knuckles I say take it, I would if I were in your position.

@Sonicman I probably will, I just wanted 6 stars range.... fusion loop? I'll take it. Also just found Taurus Arm, and considering my melee options.....

I really wished this game had a health bar, like...at least make it a power or something to let you see the boss' for a few. xD

Hope no one deletes previous posts in order to keep the link running O.K.

@Sherman Love it. I don't mean to nit pick, but what did I forget for 2 days straight that you needed to contribute to?

Also why do you have the underscores on No. 10?

Edit: Why do you have the underscores on the March gems as well? I found it on like this +2 twice.
Also why would we not have to delete posts before the link? Because it directs it to the page? It would only take 2 posts to be deleted. Also I believe the last 12 posts should be the "Archive of Gems" and include a link for where we moved

Edit 2: I see now why you have the underscores. It makes things italicized. So why didn't those 3 take?

Edit 3 @Sherman I see now, you just forgot some spaces on the 1st set to make it italicized.
Keep up the Good Work
