About this damned tower...

Is there an easy way/strategy to advance through the penultimate ascending mission (floors: 57, 58 and 59)?
I so want to break the disc right now...

Don't look at me. I'm in the 30's right now trying to get every chest as I go along. Fucking Just Impacts.

im stuck at floor 11, i just cant beat fou super HP people with annoying battle styles with one character...

Well, the cheap way would to build some Astaroth CaS's with tons of health and attack, and spam the db+A and db+A[hold], B attacks. Cheap as hell, but it works pretty well. I haven't played the tower much (think I'm on f15 or so).

I'll try it out, but I doubt it'll work against them. It's lile battling Sophitia, Cassandra, Talim, Mitsurugi, Setsuka, Cervantes, Tira, Astaroth and Nightmare on Very Hard. They continuously use Just Impacts, Switch, Sidesteps, combinations of low and mid/high attacks, Guard Break moves...I've already wasted many hours trying.

Oh you'll have to be clever about it of course. But Astaroth db+A sweep has great range. Use of one of those to knock them down when you see the chance, and then hit with the DB+A[hold], B until they break out of it.

That's also an incredibly easy way to get the achievement (for you 360 guys out there) for finishing Arcade mode with 450'000+ points.

I use my custom characters. Right now I've got.

Baal: Yun-Seong's Style
Tiamat: Talim's Style
Lilith: Amy's Style
Devil Baal: Siegfried's Style
Micheal: Amy's Style (I gotta get rid of Lilith)
AngelMicheal: Nightmare's Style

As expected I failed (well, the fact that I don't know anything about Astaroth may has something to do with this ). For now I'll try building a Sophitia a Cas; she seems so broken.

Siegfried is better.

Take your favourite character and give them a custom setup that includes Health Drain. From my experience, it really helps.

Which was Tower 11?

Yeah, health drain is almost necessary for the tower.

It doesn't help much in normal fights, but when you have to fight 4:1 odds with a static HP bar, you really want to have it.

I dunno. Siegfried is a beast. He has good reach, high damage, and a good mix of fast skills and tricksy high/low attacks. Plus, he has crouch grabs. Shit's sick.

Maxi is annoying as all hell, but he's hard to play. If you don't know the combos properly, he locks up a bunch, and is an easy target.

Yun-Seong is a bitch to fight (Thank you, Baal). He has fast, hard hitting attacks, but his reach is poor and he is pretty easy to read.

Mitsurugi CAN be good. Most people just spam one or two moves, though. He has a lot of tricky high/low attacks also, so it's hard to block a lot of times. His low hits tend to hurt a lot, which is unusual.

Hey as long as long as I'm having fun I can kick your ass pretty easily with Baal.

No.

We're close to even, but I think I'm better.

No I think I'm better.

REMATCH!

...At least, I would, but I'm not with my PS3 until Friday >.<

But I'm pretty damn sure I'm better. A 10 win streak doesn't just "happen".

You started winning again near the end, but you weren't dominating me ever. Whenever I play a fighting game/shooter for a prolonged period of time, I start to get sloppy, and my performance goes down the drain.

My performance went down the drain because I wasn't having fun.

No fun = Shitty Video Game Player

Yeah, whatever.

I won more than you, and even at the end, it was always pretty close. I still won around half the battles.

Don't hate me because I'm bootyful.

I can't help it. I'M SO JEALOUS!
