character progresion question

[playoftheyear]

Awesome game btw. If I go back and play a legend level with a new lvl1 or whatever character, will my allies keep theor level?
for instance, I been leveling Luffy to lvl 17, I go back and play chapter 1 with a level 1 Zoro. Will Luffy be levlel 17 during that battle as my allie?

There's no such thing as companion level, you will advance their Crew Level though by performing a lot of Kizuna attacks and getting a lot of "!"s.

you can just boost a characters with berry and a few coin instead (the grind is not that fun, but that's imo). Just don't max it out so you keep a decent level of challenge.

OK, no problem, not quite what I was looking for but I found out,- what seems like my companions are stronger now since leveling up, than they were before when playing a stage for another time.

About switching characters during a stage... is that possible and I am missing out on a game mechanic...or is it only switching who is near you or - your partner while doing the powerful attacks?

BEcause I can cycle through my allies, but I don't know if or how to switch to play as them, seeing as I need to use Usop to trigger a treasure event but he is not a choosable character to start that mission, makes me think I am missing something.. please anyone know what I am saying?

You don't switch your character during a level, only the active ally.

For the Usopp treasure event in the Kuro mission you need to lure Kuro to the NPC Usopp who is near the home base.

I tried that, but he got beaten before he got to Usopp. :/ Unless you mean the second time? Even so... when he DID fight Usopp, it didn't seem to count. :/

The treasure event is succesfully performed in this video, starting at 6m 40s:

He has a fairly easy time of it since there aren't many mobs running around and Kuro walks the right way. It can take some effort to lure him if blue mobs are around. Also, if red mobs are near the home base you can leave a few of them alive between Usopp and Kuro, to lure Usopp towards Kuro.

I'm just wondering... you know NPCs like those big rabbits in Chopper's home island? Can you only level them up in the stage you find them on, or can they be in other stages too?

[Caboose]

they are only for Drum island originally, if we had a better support and a lot of update they could have become a playable character, but i doubt they are.

Oh, so I have to beat that level like 50 times to get it to Level 5?

You can only level up allies' crew levels by collecting ! while they're the active ally. You don't need to replay Drum Island, though. You'll also find them in the Dream Log.

Oh, so can I pick when they're in my team in the Dream Log? Or is it only set levels?

Anyone know what "Defeat Wyper in the Time Limit" Means? I don't see a countdown timer when he appears and I always beat him as fast as I can, so why can't I get the Treasure Event?

Dream Log is made up of random missions. Each island has a fixed scenario or a choice of two. The scenario determines the pool of available allies and enemies and the pool of mission objectives. Your allies and the mission tasks are pulled randomly from these pools. The map is also picked randomly.

In other words, you have a random chance to run into Lapahn on certain specific islands.

The Wyper treasure event is certainly one of the trickier ones. It's supposed to require you to defeat him within a certain time after the mission begins, but my testing has concluded that there seems to be another trigger. When the "defeat the captains" objective is still active and Enel appears for the first time, a certain dialogue of his must be allowed to complete before you trigger Wyper's appearance.

If you fail this condition, Wyper will appear with a 3-part health bar and defeating him won't award the treasure event. If succesful, Wyper will have a 2-part health bar and you'll be able to trigger the event.

Hmm... I managed to do it, but he still had a 3-part health bar.
