This weekend: patch for all demo content, all or mostly all items, skills, and other gameplay-related text.
Prior to Memorial Day (US) (let’s say May 20): patch for the Ilias Continent. All story and quests translated up to leaving the continent, as many H-scenes as we can manage for the monsters found there. Hopefully a good chunk of miscellaneous text too, but we likely won’t get to stuff like encyclopedia entries by this date. Rest assured that everything in the game will be translated eventually. Fully 100%, not “Dargoth 100%.”
That’s the plan for now!
Guruw
sweet, the important stuff.
Kyusumu
Thanks Dargoth! You’re doing an awesome job
Anonymous
Wow that’d be impressive! Sounds like you got a great and hard working team here. Good luck with everything guys, we’re all rooting for you!
anon
does anyone have a list of game controls? I dont know what im doing half the time lol
Pyro
Hmm I’d be interested as well… wasn’t there a key combination for pulling up a world map?
Basic controls are easy for those needing them, they’re below,
Arrow keys for movement & menu navigation
Enter selects the choice
Esc aborts the choice or goes back 1 menu
anon
Im pretty sure Q is world map. Someone told me i needed it to find the pocket castle, but i still can’t find it.
Pyro
Anon, for the Pocket Castle, hit Escape to bring up the menu,
Hit enter on Item, press right 3 times to get to Key Items, and Pocket Castle will be in there if you obtained it.
Anonymous
S is to go to the pocket castle with having to select it from the Key items page
Anonymous
I know shift sprints, z selects things just like enter does, and x brings up the menu and cancels things.
Anonymous
so how far into the game is leaving the illas continent?
Dargoth
Considering I haven’t even gotten that far yet, I don’t know. Too much patch-making, too little playing the game.
Kyle
It’s quite a bit of content from what I’ve read may take a bit longer than you think. also what day is it where you live?
Well anyways best of luck to you.
Brave
Your sacrifice will be honored.
mikceron
in term of main story i think it about 1/3.
Pyro
I didn’t make a B-Line & did some grinding but I believe my time count was at 18 hours or so when I left the continent.
Kyle
Lol I didn’t want to go past what the demo translated so I’ve been farming slimes in the first area you can kill them so fast and give everyone but 1 that item you steal from the imp and it’s the best early game place to farm, I’m at 5 hours lol.
aitor
I play entire game and in proportion…. i think the illias continent is the 70% of gameplay but the 20% of important history of first part
Pyro
Thank you sir 🙂 Take your time, I’d rather you push out a translation you’re proud of and not a translation people pester you to rush out the door so they can get their fap on to faster.
Anonymous
In regards to “skills and other gameplay related text”, would this include character-specific abilities? (Like how Luka can always use Heroic skills and Alice can use Black Magic)
Dargoth
Yeah, all the traits are translated already.
WildHawk
Runs in circles. Yaaaaaaaaaa go dargoth
redpanther
“Fully 100%”
Awesome
White Mage
Thanks.
Pyro
Just tossing this hint out there for anyone wondering. Shortly after you get “Baptized” you’ll see 2 Imps loitering around the starting city. To recruit them, after you’ve recruited the Blonde Imp, have her in your active party and those 2 will join you. — English names for those 3. Remi/Rumi/Rami
Incubusknight
Very nice to hear the game will be 100% translated.
Ty for the update Dargoth.
CwHart
Thanks man, appreciate you and the others are doing. Don’t feel the need to give us a time, take your time. If you wanna set goals for yourself then thats cool, but don’t burn yourself out on this man.
Cristian
Thanks a lot for your hard work Dargoth! 😀
Anonymous
Tbh, the game’s fun enough on its own I’m not sure I care that much about the H-scenes.
By chance, does anyone know how to recruit this monster?
http://i.imgur.com/MIqn9E3.png
I’ve been killing it at 100 friendliness for about two hours, and not a single one has offered to join me. I’m not sure if she’s just a stubborn one or I’m supposed to do something extra.
Anonymous
She’s just stubborn
Keep at it. Try to have some one in your party with 1.5x recruitment chance
Anonymous
Yeah, I gave up and did other stuff for a while, but then Ilias learned the 1.5x recruitment chance ability (which is kinda weird since she hates monsters).
I went back and got her. She was still pretty stubborn though lol. Or maybe just shy.
khalayia
if your having alot of trouble recruiting certain monsters, the demon trainer intermediate job can likely help alot. all it requires is maxed hunter. id recommend barnie the elf hunter since she gets 1.5 recruit as a race bonus
Anonymous
Demon Trainer LV 9 仲間確率2倍 (Recruit Rate *2)
Anonymous
Even with this, certain monsters can just be REALLY stubborn. I don’t think the bonuses stack but I’ve got a x2 and two or three more 1.5s in my party.
Took a fair number of Mimics for one to stick. Sandworm Girl keeps breaking out of every pokeball I throw at her, she’s as bad as Chansey. And a 2/4 of the enemies in the 3rd Tartarus just refuse to sign up. Not sure if there’s any enemies at all in the last last area, I’ll have to double check… but I heard it’s the only place with wild Mimics, which makes it an ideal Job Xp farm spot since they’re quick easy kills by then.
Anonymous
Not sure if its just a coincidence or some sort of hidden trait but with some of the monsters I had trouble recruiting I went and changed party line up and changed the type of attacks I used to defeat them and they joined quick after I changed party and tactic so maybe that will work for you. Right now I put at least one monster that can be considered similar to the one I’m trying to recruit in party when I’m hunting for them and it seems to work so not sure if its just positive thinking or if there is hidden code to behind it.
Anonymous
When you release the demo content patch this weekend, will it include all the H scenes and H dialog for all the monsters that were in the demo?
Dargoth
Yes, except for anything added.
The Noble Shade
If I’ve been reading things correctly, the demo DOES require a decryption process to play, while the full version DOES NOT require any decryption. Am I correct on this?
Dargoth
That is correct. New patching process for the release version.
The Noble Shade
Thank you.

Will the “demo content patch” be for the demo too, or only for the full version?
Kyle
Full version there is really no point translating the 2ed demo when the full is game out.
Anonymous
Well, there is a point: You can get the demo without paying or pirating, what isn’t true for the full version.

Well the content of the demo is in the full game, is not like they are 2 different thing expecially since the patch is going to apply to the full game

Um which succubus girl and for Nero if it’s the theory I’m thinking of you may be right lol.

Wow way to break the game than to that guy. XD

Whats Dargoth 100%? Compared to full 100%? Your work seems good in all the games ive played with your translations.
Anonymous
Generally he left things untranslated in some of his works. He usually translated all the important bits, story, dialogue, H-scenes, and such. However small things, like encyclopedias and minor encounters were left untranslated. It’s fine for the works he did it in as the minor encounters were usually for grinding and had little in the way of actual content, but not so much for MGQP.
It was actually the thing I was most worried about for a while. Fortunately that isn’t the case.
Anonymous
First off I’d like to thank Dargoth for his hard work. In which day of the weekend will the next patch be released, I’m asking not because of impatience but because Saturday I’m at work and I’m limited to mobile internet there so I can’t really download from work.
Third is a game question, I got to the part where Luka learns his first Holy skill which I presume is meditation and I went to the treasure cave but there’s no one there, what didn’t I do before going there to be able to get the bell
Anonymous
Did you talk with sailor? He gives you quest to obtain the bell.
Anonymaster
I hope the loli bandits will be included as well if he has the time! They open up shop inside of your castle if I understand correctly and then you can buy better weapons…
Pyro
2 of the Loli Bandits have dialog plot points up to the end of the chapter.
**** SPOILER ****
You’ll need to do certain errands at certain points within the game for The Vampire & Dragon to expand their stock with newer items.
*********************
I’ll reply with detail if requested. Some of which can be done within the Demo area of the game 🙂
khalayia
which erands? ive goten the gold and mythril ore’s but the item stocks haven’t changed at all?
Pyro
When you supply them to the smiths in town, bring the Loli Dragon in your active party and a 3rd option should open up to allow her to get some training to be able to craft & supply those in your pocket castle.
It’s a bit more involved though for your Vampire though.
Goddess Ilias
Thanks for your hard work and that of your “unfortune” friends 😀 , i really appreciate your efforts.
Don´t rush i am just glad that i will be able to play this game someday, while understanding the Content.
Now go, oh brave Dargoth, i will always watch over your translations.
khalayia
ah k, ty pyro, wish i found this out alot sooner; on another note, anyone know how to open the steel looking boxes?
Pyro
I haven’t gotten there yet, apparently you need to get Theif to 10 + possibly another job to unlock an intermediate skill that can unlock Green. The same may be true for Steel boxes either in the same job at a higher level or even in the T3 jobs.
khalayia
ive got the one for green, think its lvl 6 master thief but yeah im thinking it might be an advanced job……………….
Player4thegames
It’s normaly an advenced job, but I don’t know if it’s possible to unlock an advenced job in the first part.
Pyro
Let us know if you do please 🙂 — last night I was working mostly on getting all of my recruited monsters to 10 Affection
The problem I may be over thinking, is will there be more scenes unlocked at affection levels after a certain character level
So far, what I’m finding is every one has a scene at 10, some have scenes at 100, and rarer yet a select few have scenes between 10 & 100.
Anyone know if there’s a Wiki up and running that a FAQ / Database can be populated with things all of us are finding?
CMrC
I was wondering, is there a way to recruit the mimic after defeating everyone i could find on the map?
Desert Eagle
I’m wondering the same. I think I’ve found every Mimic chest there is but I never managed to recruit her. It didn’t occur to me that I wouldn’t find Mimic chests anymore. Had I known that, I would have saved and re-loaded until one of them agreed to join me.
In Ilias Port’s University, I heard something like “mimics appearing somewhere in the world”. It sounded like there’s a chance of meeting one somewhere on the main world map. I’m not sure where to look though.
Anonymous
Troops 118:ミミック娘 (Mimic); Looked through the main map; it doesn’t seem as she appears randomly but only in chest.
Player4thegames
Normaly, like the pot, she will be available in futur part on a zone, if I don’t mistake information in Ilias Port
aitor
The mimics appear in all chest sience these cave, is annoying,
aitor
Sorry, i don’t say well, dont appear in all chest, but can appear in chests sience these cave
CMrC
The pot zone was easy to find (and also easy to recruit, got her at 2nd try), but i’ve not been able to find a mimic zone after finishing part1, maybe should try to roam the map a little more
Desert Eagle
I googled around a bit for “ミミック娘” (Mimic Girl). I think I found something.
Some Japanese text mentions “a tower west of Saruun and Tartarus”. There’s no tower west of Saruun of course so I think it means east. There might be a tower further east from the Tartarus hole; I haven’t been that way yet. I think the text says that Mimic girl can be randomly encountered in that tower’s basement.
I’ll try to find this basement and see if it’s true.
Anonymous
The tower appears once you’ve beaten Part 1, so once you’ve done everything main story wise the tower will appear and you can grind honey pots and mimics there.
CMrC
Ah they appear as random monster nice, i thought there were only pots since you could find them as actual pots
Desert Eagle
Okay, I can confirm it too now. Mimics appear as a random encounter in the basement of the tower east of Saruun, after you’ve cleared the game. Hooray. 🙂
Michiru
Thank you Dargoth and team for all your hard work for helping all of us girls and guys flap to this lovely world of monster girls!
CMrC
Wait a sec girls are into this too? Man that would be weird but interesting news
Grandork
I’m sure there are girls that like it, especially since it’s reverse rape shota.
Kurobane Sayuki
Whoa….. for real? o_o
Michiru
Yeah we girls like to play it. I love this game. ^^ And not because its reverse rape, just because the girls are so hot. Especially the slime girls. *drools*
Anonymaster
Absolutely… I made my GF play it and she loved the story. Even liked some of the sex, though found the humiliation to be a turn off.
Kurobane Sayuki
Give me your contact info… for science XD
Nah joking… Either way, that’s awesome!

whoa, i never expected girls to like it, my partner from a few years back caught me playing mgq 3 once and was horrified!

Dear Dargoth,
Could you indicate the end of the demo, and end of translations so far please? I do not know if you included it already, but it would really be appreciated. Thank you.

I meant ingame :p
Anonymaster
I think I messed up my save… I went around leveling and collecting monsters while waiting for the translation to do the story and side-quests, but now there’s a pig-girl in front of the gambler who I need to talk to in order to find Amira and do the 4 bandits quest… Is there a way to move her, or will I have to use an earlier save?

Yep she did, and i really think xelvy’s cg with piss involved are more than enough, they really could’ve spared that one
Anonymous
I don’t know if anyone else has mentioned it yet, but I believe I found a bug.
If you kill the final enemy in a battle with Double-Edged Cut the game crashes. I’d imagine it’s some kind of confusion with the battle being over but you’re still taking damage.
If there are other abilities in the game that deal damage both to the enemy and yourself, they probably do the same thing.
Dargoth
Yeah, that was our bad. It’ll be fixed for the next patch. Until then, don’t use double-edged cut at the end of a battle.
Casian Sarpe Socaci
I’ve been scraping up info here and there about the basic jobs but I’m still missing 3 of them Informant, Scholar and one more between Engineer and Informant. Does anyone by any chance know where to get the permits for these jobs? Any help is greatly appreciated
Anonymous
Informant has something to do with Amira. Mageshi (seriously) is the job between Engineer and Informant; by mastering it, you can become a Necromancer, Puppeteer and Spiritist so I believe it has to do something with Chrome. As for the Scholar, I`d like to know that myself)
Casian Sarpe Socaci
Do I have to raise her whatever stat to 2000?
Player4thegames
For the job under Engineer it’s spiritualist http://puu.sh/gOVo5/8b8ef01d67.jpg
For informant it’s when you encounter for the first time Amana, she will propose you to choice to pay 1500 G for the information, or do a quest for become Informant, I don’t think you can do it anymore if you pay, but maybe you can, don’t know.
Scholar it’s in the university in Ilias port, on the second floor, go speak with the doctor, go to the bottom of the Forest of hesitation, and go to the beach, search you will find an item, go to the village in the forest, speak with the elf in the weapon shop, she will give you item, and one of them is an key item to give to the doctor, when you have it you can go on the third floor, and on this floor there is a BF, win and you have Scholar.
For Spiritualist, it’s in Chrome mansion, make all the room (kill every monster in fact), and go again in the room where is mimic, if you finish all the room she will give you spiritualist.
I hope I’ve help and my english isn’t too bad XD
khalayia
to get informant, when you talk to amira for the first time, she’ll ask for 1500. instead of giving it, negotiate i think and she’ll give you a quest that takes you to slum village, following this will give you the information for free, the informant job, a mini phoenix called mimi as well as amira when you talk to her again. for the engineer job simply talk to the guy with the red bandana at the entrance to the first tartarus once you obtain one of the machina pieces from the other tartarus to the east
Casian Sarpe Socaci
So if I paid and did the quest as well I won’t get the permit? I do have Mimi recruited

Casian Sarpe Socaci
But I assume you don’t know where to get the informer if you paid Amira first and did the quest afterwards
Guruw
not a clue, you gotta take advantage of any opportunity to join a guild, just like you can never get the merchant permit if you pick a different reward, you probably can’t get the police informer permit if you don’t join the guild.
Casian Sarpe Socaci
Thanks for the reply. Oh well guess it’s time to start over and this wouldn’t be that tragic if Luka wasn’t max level and almost all basic jobs mastered.
Casian Sarpe Socaci
I have one correction for your list,you get the fortune teller permit for a Hard Grow Bracelet not Hard Job

looks like one of the advanced jobs is a combination of all the mage specialities, so far it includes black mage, time mage, white mage and one other. if someone finds out the fourth please let me know.

black mage, time mage, hakuma guru, wise man (chiitrans translation)

Erebos
Good day. I have a question about “alternative” world after the first Tartarus. Is there any reason to enter that place at the moment? It seems you need to have highest level possible to fight on par with high-ranked angels.
Casian Sarpe Socaci
You need to visit Ilias Village in that world and read the graves to advance the game.
Erebos
Thank you for the reply. It means that I need to use an artifact with less chance of encounter to evade angels on my way.
Casian Sarpe Socaci
Well I honestly can’t advise you on that I’m a job grinding maniac so most of my characters have flirt job mastered. you only need it at level 2 for encounter half. stack a few of those and you won’t encounter any monsters at all
Shriden
in the first tatarus if you stick to the raod and do NOT touch the grass, you do not encounter the angels
Guruw
just stay on the road, go directly to the village, and don’t wander off the road to explore, and you will get zero encounters, it’s scripted to do that, and you’re even told to do that by the game.
Erebos
Thanks!
NoName
Yep, completely scripted, you can’t even run away from the battles as an indication of “You fucked up!”. That’s one of the problems people found when not playing using a translation program. Fortunately I saw the warning but little oh adventurer I am decided after saving to risk my stupid life.
Fortunately I can easily kill them now, so yay revenge for me.

You don’t have to grind, just stay on the road and you’ll be safe.

If that choice will bring serious outcomes i think it will be in enxt parts, i chose lucia but didn’t see any consequence from it

It doesn’t really seem like it has some consequences, apart from allowing certain sidequests related to the girl you recruit. I just went with Lily to give her a second chance since that didn’t happen in the VNs.

I still have an issue with my save being untranslated in the full version of the game and it crashing when i go into the “Config” sectionn.
Kyle
Ok did you use any demo saves if so was it the translated one or the Japanese one also which patches did you use and what version of the game do you have.
deuxvolt
I started my save for the 0.91 demo and already had it patched into English. I moved it into my 1.0 version of the game and its completely translated but when I move it to 1.2 it reverts back into the Japanese translation with the config crash bug.
Kyle
Yeah your not suppose to use the save from the first demo the one in English it’ll corrupt your game.
Guruw
just start over, it’s not that big a deal, there’s more stuff to get in the demo area than was in the demo anyway. Plus, you won’t have your config crash bug
deuxvolt
Dam guess i’ll just start over, thanks for telling me that you’ve been great help friend! 🙂
Anonymaster
I think I may have messed up my save… I went around leveling and recruiting monsters while waiting for the translation, while avoiding the story and side-quests. Now, however, there’s a pig girl standing in front of the gambler, preventing me from talking to him to see where Amira headed off to. Is there anyway to move her?
Anonymous
Yep, monster girls not in your active party will sometimes do things in the world; Simple way to get the pig girl out of your way is to put her in your active party. It will be fun to see what extras are available once translated
Anonymaster
Oh hey, that fixed, thanks!
Anonymaster
fixed it*
Civildeviation
Dargoth, out of curiosity will unlocked abilities or other text suffer the same problem as the names not being able to be translated after patching? Also thank you for all the work you’ve done and will do, it really makes the game far more enjoyable.

I think party member names are the only issue, but we’ll get that fixed. Maybe by this weekend, but can’t promise that.

You probably started the quest at the slums. You just go west to the cave and out to enter the town of slums. Talk to the girl in the tent (not the BF girl) and once you come out you should get a key. You go southeast and use the key to open a door into the house and search the shining object. After the event, you can go back and talk to the girl in the tent and recruit Amira as you’ve solved her quest.
Casian Sarpe Socaci
Well I did solve her quest I got the job change item but Amira didn’t join me.

you get her AFTER you go to where she tells you the white rabbit went, checking her info, then reporting back

Thank you for clarifying that for me I thought it’s a choice thing either the job or Amira
Ningyo no Koibito
I must commend you for your dedication to this massive project, Dargoth. Do hang in there. Also, I was wondering if you were considering using Torotoro’s official spelling of Alice’s name (Alicefeeze) as opposed to Alipheese with the missing phonetic. Up to you.
Kurobane Sayuki
“Alicefeeze” is terrible. >.>
Alipheese would be fine.
anon
“Alicefeeze”
Sounds like Torotoro isn’t using a native English speaker if thats the official spelling.
Cellulanus
Oh god please no. That just doesn’t look good.
Ningyo no Koibito
I originally preferred Alispheese (with an S) until I found out the official spelling. I suppose Alicefeeze is kind of an odd spelling, but it at least explains why she likes “Alice” as a nickname.
Guruw
along the lines of that… Luca’s name translates to Luke… but hey.
Ningyo no Koibito
According to Rogue, Luka IS the official spelling, with the exception of the misspelling in the battling label (Ruka). Then again, Alicefeeze was discovered because of the battling label, so perhaps that spelling is from an unreliable (albeit official) source. The Romaji is indeed ARISUFI-ZU, but it’s tricky to create a translation with all of the phonetics without making it look strange. Of course, it’s always good to respect the author as much as we can.
Dargoth
I put no stock in the Romanization chosen. Variable names in the games’ code are in Romaji, and they’re full of misspellings and mangling of English words. Stuff like theef_stealed. It’s really only useful to find what readings he meant for kanji in names, like seeing that Nanabi is not supposed to be Nanao, although Setouchi himself got that wrong in one of his BtE stories.
Ningyo no Koibito
Ah, I see! Thanks for that insight, Dargoth! Sorry to take up your time!
NoName
Translating badly misspelled English words is one of the worst things a translator has to go through. Specially when even the context can’t help you find out what the fuck they were trying to say. Unless they write the romaji of it, it’s a matter of tossing a coin and hope it lands on the side you bet.
Dargoth
Sunny’s nickname and ability are サボレス and サボレスフェイズ. I have absolutely no idea what either of those is supposed to mean. I asked on TT’s forum but no one answered me.
NoName
Suppress and Suppress Phase? Or Surprise and Surprise Phase, if I go for terrible mispelling? Tell me the monster that has that name, perhaps I can help.
Dargoth
Actor 144, サニー / Sunny the Scylla.
Ningyo no Koibito
Hmm…. フェイズ does seem to be phase. サボレス could be a variety of things. Savorless comes to mind. Google Translate wants to try things like Support Voles (what?). Does Sunny have a particular personality or habit that gives her such a nickname?
NoName
And the effect of her unique ability? With this I may have an idea on where to start. I already grasped her personality after talking to her with the Talk option.

Wow. I think you’re right. They do use French and Spanish at times. Heck, Tiny Lamia is actually Petit (not Petite) Lamia. I guess they’re trying to give the names a bit of flavour. …Bad joke, I know. Please don’t hit me.

Alrighty fun question, anyone know if the naming issue persists through a New game Plus… if NG+ is in this one.

there’s no new game plus… for one… this is only part one, not the full game.

Mithra Castle is the destroyed one to the south of the slum on Ilias continent? If so, it seems to have no plot-related events yet.

By gameplay related does that include the quotes when you are fighting mosnter?

wow that’s quick! You guys are going at this at a much better rate than I had suspected. Amazing job!
Desert Eagle
Umm, I just noticed. There are TWO monsters whose names are “Honey”. The bee girl is called “ハニー/Honey” and the Honey Pot girl is called “蜜壺” (Literally “Honey Pot” but translated “Honey”.)
I have to differentiate between them somehow. Either I call the bee girl “Hani” or just call Honey Pot girl Honey Pot.

I’ve always preferred using their standard MG names (Slime Girl instead of Lime) for all of the non-unique named MGs.
Casian Sarpe Socaci
Does the Queen of Grandgold(?) have anything else valuable in her list besides the noble job change item
CMrC
Not sure how many medals it required, but she also gives you the lord job change. Also her 50 medal thing is the strongest piece of armor you can find. Even beating the shinigami won’t yeld an armor as good as that (and i don’t think it can be done without cheats, i just did it to check life, drop and dialogue)
Anonymous
It is certainly possible to beat death.
Power fighter lvl 6 ability (食いしばり) prevents one hit kills on your party if they are over 300hp. Combine that with constant healing and you can win, though it will be a grind.
Also, Wing harpy race level 4 unlocks a dance (天空の踊り) which raises the evasion of all party members, which can help.
NoName
That is not enough for Reaper, since I believe some of her attacks cause instant death, and some hits multiple times easily bypassing that ability’s usefulness. The strategy I’ve seen from some japanese guys is to abuse Unfortunate Harpy’s innate 70% evasion and boost it to 100%, making it completely untouchable, and keeping it on all the time, keep in mind though, it’s a freaking long battle because of how high her stats are, you’ll be hardly doing damage to it.
My opinion, don’t beat it yet. Reaper was not intended to be beaten at this point, or at least that’s what Torotoro’s team believed, since you can’t refight it once you win (but as always, there’s some way to exploit the system LOL). Just beat Alice XVI, she gives good loot and she’s definitely easier to beat than the Reaper (still needs preparation though).
CMrC
interesting i didn’t consider that abilityi, maybe that coupled with all member mastering dancer and singer for phys and magic evasion and a couple summoners for constant magic reflect shield and accsessories to avoid insta death might do it.
I’m gonna try it
CMrC
Also as far as i’ve seen she has multiple aoes, but no attacks that hit more than once the same target
Desert Eagle
For 30 Medals, you can get the job change item for “Lord” and “Pope”. Lord requires mastery of Noble and Warrior, and Pope requires Noble and Priest. You also get a very nice crown.
For 45 Medals, you can recruit the Medal Queen.
Anonymous
Desert Eagle, thanks for the info! Perhaps I should start searching for medals more carefully (buyed the permit to Lord and Pope`s jobs already). BTW, do you know how much medals there are overall in Chap1?
NoName
As much as you want. Mimics and Honey Pots drop them (low chance though), and you can find them as random encounters in the tower east of the entrance of the 3rd Tartarus. That tower will only appear once you’ve beaten Part 1 though.
Desert Eagle
I’d like to say that I’ve carefully searched every nook and corner for small medals. I also had Amira drink gallons of coffee and cola to get her medals. I think I’ve collected a total of 49 small medals; Just enough to recruit Medal Queen.
However, I think it’s possible to farm these medals if you have the patience for it. According to a japanese wiki page, Mimics and Honey Pots have a low probability of dropping small medals. If you go to the tower basement after beating the game, you can grind (giggle) those monsters for medals.
I might do that. I just need 29 small medals. Probably take many hours though but I wanted to master some jobs anyway.
NoName
I believe Gambler (advanced job for Fortune Teller), when you level it up it gives you an ability that increases the chances of an item dropping x2. Keep in mind that if something has a chance of 1/64, it means now it has a chance of 1/32 (I think it works that way). Even with that x2, it’s still a reaaaaaaally low chance of dropping.
Civildeviation
Another way of getting 3 medals and a plethora of other items is the Grand Dole (theatre) with Saki. Bring her in your party and talk to the manager. For each combination of monster girls that do their first performance you get items. Mimic and Honeypot get you the 3 medtals
Desert Eagle
Gambler can do that? Well, if I’m really going to try and get those medals, I MUST get a gambler in my team. Turns out though, I don’t have the permit for Fortune Teller job. I just found out that the permit can be acquired from Pornof, the town of perverts (You trade 200% EXP bracelet to a fortune teller for the permit). Thanks for the info!
And Mimic + Honey Pot show gives three medals? Thanks, I haven’t done that show yet! (I need to recruit Mimic first though…)
CMrC
Do this x2 stacks if you have it on multiple members?
Anonymous
I can confirm that Mimics and Honey Pots do drop them, but the odds really are terrible. I long ago lost count of how many dozens of each I’ve beaten and only had 1 medal drop from each. I know it was the first medal from each because it was added to Monsterpedia data.
I’m certain I don’t have the 2x item drop rate yet, so I’ll make that my next goal for Luka since all I’m doing with him is filling out random jobs anyway, and I don’t think I have anyone else with Fortune Teller exp that I want to myself get exp on.
Desert Eagle
@CmrC – No, it doesn’t stack. It seems that two effects that boost item drop rate (or exp rate) cannot stack at all.
You can check it yourself too. Party menu –> Status –> Basic Info (click on it) –> Adv. Stats.
Anonymous
Boosting cannot stack but you can use a booster to help cancel out one of the Exp reducers. The items/abilities that reduce an Exp type are not a Multiply by 0, they’re a -50% or -100%. A positive booster can cancel them out. Humans have it really easy with their passives, but since most Humans racial options are pretty lousy…
CMrC
@Desert Eagle
I was talking about having them on different character.
Like if you have 8 gamblers all with the x2 drop ability on.
I think it would be best for someone who is pratical with the code to check this than for me to start trying to define a statistics for all the cases (already grinded soo much that i’m starting to consider cheats instead of doing further grinding coz it got quite boring)
CMrC
I’ve started looking at the cgs in the graph folder. There seems to be a series with crome sitting on you while facing you, but from the request scene it only seems to play the one where she sits on you ginvg her back, as anyone found a way to accsess the other one?
Pyro
I haven’t done enough digging but there may be a possible slight difference between battle loss rape scenes and post recruitment affection scenes. also per character there are multiple scenes for some of the girls. IE loss via a BJ vs Loss by Rape from the previous games for example.
NoName
The best theory we have is (taking into account that facing Luka and kissing him is far more intimate than giving her back) that this scene will be accessible in a future Part 2 or Part 3 release, when some event makes Chrome’s relationship with Luka improve (like for example meeting her sister). Since obviously UN_DO wasn’t just going to do different versions of the CG at different moments, he just did them all, and Torotoro’s team added them all to the game, ready to be used in the future. That’s the most likely theory so far.

Having tried to play part 1 essentially using some hooking stuff with dictionaries that essential equaled google translate that produced English that made no sense I just wanted to say having tried the rest I’m more appreciative of the best. I’m rooting for you meatbag with newfound patience only the suck of robots can teach.
CMrC
Yessss after 15 min or more of battle i finally defeated the shinigami
Party:
Luka, Power fighter, Valkyre
Sylph, Super star, Wind spirit
Promestin, Lord, High angel + mastered medic, and white mage
Alice, Lord, Boa lamia (forgot ot chagne back to yoma) + mastered summoner
Used the 食いしばり (defense tree) ability from power fighter tree on everyone, +20% evasion for phys and magic from dancer and minsterl, also used ability for death immunity on all that had it and accsessory for other.
Used Luka as main dmg dealer (super hero transform + 2SP move that power up next attack) (+ sylph 5SP dancer buff to attack and agility he hits 20k on her with 6sp 4 random hit hero skill)
Sylph to keep every one buff, and 2SP dancer skill to heal at start of turn if needed (had to keep all above 300hp), also kept stagetime on to have double turn.
Promestin for general heal, medic 6SP skill that increase max healt of party to 1.5
Alice, general heal and kept carbank summoner skill always active to have magic reflection barrier (you need to enable the ability in the green tree to use summoner skill to use summons without having right job, but not sure if i got it from summoner or one of the other 3 jobs following the spiritualist tree)
Good luck and grinding everyone if you want to try to take her down^^
Anonymous
And what did you get?
CMrC
99 job exp 15k gold
A really good armor that rises all stats but dexterity (still not as good as the 50 medal one)
A potion that restore all hp/mp/sp to all your party
A gem that rises willpower by 2
Unfortunately you can’t fight her again after defeating her once, but you can enjoy her rape scene without having to loose to her
NoName
Think is, she has items to steal, so make sure you get at least one of them before defeating her.
CMrC
Didn’t notice that, umh might try to reload another save and see if it’s worth it
CMrC
Normal steal: Erikusa(full HP/MP restore potion for single target), Life nut
Item request(Orator skill): World tree leaf
Ingredient steal: Skull
Material steal: ???
Underpant steal: Shinigami underpants
If someone is interested i also mapped to an extent her dialogue lines and answers
NoName
Erikusa is Elixir LOL.
Btw, I fucking finally figure out how to steal materials. Harpies have a skill that allows that. One of their advanced jobs at Lv2 (I believe Wind Harpy or similar) allows you to do that. Thank god of the japanese wiki, seriously.
NoName
Okay, the proper name is Wing Harpy, not Wind Harpy LOL. Guess I was close. The name of the race is ウィングハーピー, and the name of the skill is 素材を盗む.
CMrC
Yeah knew it, just didn’t had the will to grind an harpy as well to make her fit that battle 😛 and i really missed the eilixir romanization 😛

Judging from just how many abilities and items there are in this game, I think Tuesday would be an early real estimate. Once you really get into this game, you start to see just how much is in it. It’s quite overwhelming.
Arj
Just for a frame of reference on how big the game is, how much % of the game is the Ilias Continent? ( roughly speaking )
NoName
You’re going to spend in this continent 50%-60% of your time, while for the other (and it’s only half of it since the game stops you from exploring more in Part 1) it’s about 40%-50% IMO. If you’re not skipping sidequests, you’ll be spending a lot of time in every continent.

Few questions for ya folks:
1) What is the purpose of collecting MG underwear?
2) Is there a way to quickly check and see if there is a MG you haven’t recruited?
3) Anyone know the list of job permits that you can get in this first part? I haven’t found taoist, ninja, or any items for intermediate races
NoName
1) To show it to one guy in Porn village. You get an achievement after a certain number. Plus I suppose it’s a “collect them all” kind of fun event.
2) Sorry, but the only way is to check your Recruited Monsters section in the Monsterpedia, then check the Enemies section in the Monsterpedia and see who’s missing in the first section. Keep in mind that some bosses do not join you (yet in Part 1).
3) Link to the walkthrough, check there: pastebin.com/zaNGkJF2

For 2, there is a line below their name on the 3rd page of their Monster Book entry. If it is 仲間になっている, you have recruited them. If it is 仲間になっていない, you have not recruited them, but they are recruitable*. If the line is not there, you can’t recruit them.
*The only exception seems to be from an event near the end of the game. You choose to fight one of two people. The other will join you, but the one you fought appears as though they are recruitable.

The high priest of San Ilia doesn’t ask me for guard duty which means I can’t do the quest in the village north east of San Ilia.

Either you have already gotten it, or you may have to talk to the blacksmith in San Ilia first.
