What is a triple tech attack, for example. Chrono battle system isn't turn based. Each character has a cooldown between actions, double/triple tech attacks would be an attack by multiple people who are not on cooldown, it also costs mana points. | ||

Elemental attacks are ineffective against him. Water techs are canceled when he wields a sword, so use physical combo attacks. Remember to take the Slasher after you defeat him. | ||

Slash has multiple forms. After you defeat Slash's weaker form, he grabs the sword off the wall, which can target everyone. The first flea is fake. He drains all the mp of the first person to kill him. | ||

Also, there apparently was some host error regarding my Cycle 3 PM. I received a PM stating I took 50 damage, as opposed to a PM stating that I took no damage and got healed. Hopefully I can get one of the hosts to confirm this. But it's all a bit shellshocking considering I've been arguing about this damn thing for daaaaaaaaaays. Bossfight Speculation From what I remember from the game, "Flea" has extremely high magic resistance. Therefore, it's probably best to attack with some sort of "physical" form of damage. Slash has no resistances that I know of, but the sword behind him on the wall is relevant in the bossfight in-game. After you do enough damage to him, he picks it up and starts doing more damage with his attacks. I'm not sure what this means for the event though. | ||

Maybe me attacking isn't such a good idea as my abilities are quite valuable, and I assume "mp drain" is ability removal in this game. | ||

Based off a boss guide on gamefaqs, slash has two phases: unarmed and armed (with his sword). You loot his sword after beating him... With his sword he has stupidly high physical defense, so charging him would be terrible. So that leaves two options: 1) Grab the sword 2) use a tech attack I'm not sure of what the success rate would be for just grabbing his sword (you can't do this in the game), but using a tech attack would be far better than just running at him (and presumably using physical attacks). Therefore, I would propose using a tech attack. Better to directly try to kill the boss. You can grab his sword after... As for Flea: Here, apparently magic attacks aren't so hot... Since our Frog doesn't have the powered-up Masamune, I'm unsure what kind of damage he could muster. And as for Robo, he isn't really the strongest physical damage character... Even without the Masamune, I would think attacking with Frog would be best here.

Slash: The Tech Attack seems intuitively a less-risky option. I'm inclined to go for the pure damage here. Flea: We also should consider that her first form is "fake," and killing that form mana-drains whoever hit her last. What this means... I have no idea. Even so, I still like the idea of Toad giving her a whack. | ||

That's literally bullshit if you were sent the wrong PM that is 100% cause for a lynch but the host won't admit it to the thread. Without host confirmation, I would still want to lynch you because what other option do you have besides lying? Did Hapa receive the wrong PM cycle 3? | ||

I'm really angry about it, and any peer pressure dedicated towards supporting my cause is appreciated. However, I do see the hosts' point - a host confirmation would confirm that I'm telling the truth about my night actions. While I don't see how it would be "gamebreaking" or even alignment-indicative for that matter, it's still nonetheless gives me an advantage over other players (confirming my night results). | ||
