Hard Mode in Reunion

[Himerin]

Is it just me or is the hard mode in Reunion much easier now than the PSP version?

[shade00]

started the game on hardmode finished chapter one?
been doing missions as far as i can finished a few 4 star at lvl10
one v.s a mech who can one hit you.... anothers skill who can 3k damage you when ur 1k-2k hp, O-o fun fun fun beat the mech after many tries, the v.s security missions lol

its sounding like some are finding normal to be actually easy mode
and hard mode to be more normal mode, kinda speaks that way with normal more of a story based, so more casual or something it says

Don't know if PC version is bugged, but did some 7* boss earlier while in chapter 4 and it was kind of beefy in terms of HP took me a while and some of his attack could one shot me through barrier+guard, so hard seems just enough so far and I can't really do that much missions in 7* since at this point pretty much every enemy can one shot me.

few rules, run away at first to learn there moves, then DODGE LIKE CRAZY
if they cant touch you, they cant kill you
had to do this in loz skyward swords final boss, parasite eve third birthday final boss high diffs
and in other games, dodging is usually the best tactic, berserk em when you feel its safe and dodge away if u feel unsafe

Can someone on the PC version check some random trash mob HP values with libra on "hard"? pick something like 1-1-1 that has a clear difference in hp

[Kupo Nut]

I did that, and yes no difference like other devices, people are confused because others reported it first for PS5 but that's normal because the game released last here, it's all the same.

so... just hit 2nd last chapter of the game and enemies in the story segment suddenly have "hard mode" hp (i.e over 10k) and a previous mission i've completed(10-4-3) which i killed in a single attack before now has the proper 400k hard mode hp? but other missions don't have the boost?

yeah see that's the odd thing see my LAST post for wierdness... the soldiers and robots in chapter 9 suddenly have the standaerd 12-25k hp lol...and normal has them down to normal levels. it's like the flag isn't applying properly to everything that or they decided hard mode only applies in the last 2 chapters lol...

I think so too based on others reports, I think after a certain star mission HP value is increased as well, it's either a bug or they intentionally made it this way...smh

star rating wouldn't explain 10-4-3 having sub 90k when it first unlocks vs now though =/

either way it kind of makes hard mode not even challenging since the only dangerous things are once you already have access to all the broken stuff... got to love hard modes that are only hard when you intentionally handicap yourself X_x

[Kupo Nut]

Oh so it's only a chapter trigger.. does it change all the other missions too? like 1-1-1?
This is so weird.. I really hope its a bug, maybe it supposed to trigger on new plus game because whats the point of doing missions if the true hard mode kicks in later like that.

[Shyba]

it doesn't seem consistant 6-6-6 has full hp even in chapter 4 some random enemies get buffed otehrs don't... some bosses are buffed others aren't most are LOWER then psp values even when buffed minus Minerva who gained 3x her PSP hard mode hp lol...

this is THE weirdest implementation of a hard mode i've ever seen if this is intended

its sad... all the new combat changes would have made OG hard mode a lot easier even with the OG stats

[Kupo Nut]

wow this is crazy lol.. maybe it's their idea of "balance" or it's just a bug...!
I agree the new changes made the game a bit easier are more than enough as a "nerf".

I just beat Bahamut fury on hard at level 20 while on the PSP I think I never did it on normal lol. I think the DMW is much more helpful now, seems like it gives you exactly what you need instead of random buffs.
