Perpetua 11: Journey to the Bay Pt. 03

Perpetua 11: Journey to the Bay Pt. 03

With Redolencia behind them and a new friend on board, the crew of the Little Snail powers forward towards Calstega Bay. Unfortunately, as a familiar crack sounds in the distance, they find that the home of the Manakin is less welcoming than they'd hoped! Now, the ad hoc adventurers must find their way past the blockades and between the sniper's bullets if they hope to make it into the seaside town.

This week on Perpetua: Journey to the Bay Pt. 03

Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.03] Town Maps [TNMP] Calstega Bay [CBMP]

While smaller towns and villages are set up in a single, scrolling screen, larger cities like Calstega Bay are broken up into different "district" zones. Each one has a bunch of stuff in it, so for the sake of speed (this is an IN PROGRESS FAQ after all!) I'm going to just list the basics and I'll come back later if more detail is needed. Anyway, without further to do:

Northcrook

A.K.A. "Crookville," this is the primary way of entering during the opening scenario. There's a hospital here (with a doctor who has some very funny dialog). You can grind here for a little bit against both Valtese Guards and "Cheetahs." (They're not Cheetahs, they're Manakin Gang Members that have Cheetah Spots on them. I don't know that the developers know what gangs are like in real life.).

The Free Quarter

This is the big central square of town that connects most of the other districts to one another. So you know what that means: You'll be running through it CONSTANTLY, especially after you get the disguise and the pass that let you move around freely. You can also go into the palace to learn some lore about the Manakin and Grand Sonnerie and the noble who used to rule here. And the clocktower at the top of the palace is the first of three places you can choose to have the big boss fight at at the end of the main quest chapter here!

Westgate Markets

This is where the big cooking competition happens, technically, but let me just focus on what you care about most here. The GEAR! Here's what's available:

Weapons

Inventor's Screwdriver - 600 asta

DEX+DEX+1 - [HR+4] physical - 1 handed / melee

Damage dealt by this weapon ignores Resistances.

Inventor's Hammer - 800 Asta

MIG+MIG - [HR+10] bolt damage - 2 handed / melee

Do an extra 5 damage to Constructs.

Gatling Crossbow - 1350 asta, martial

DEX+INS - [HR+12] physical damage - 2 handed

Attacks with this weapon always have multi (2)

Encyclopedia - 600 asta

INS+INS - [HR+6] physical - two handed / melee

You are immune to dazed.

Armor

Inventor's Garb - 800 asta

DEX die +1 Def / INS die +1 Mdef/ -1 Init

You gain +1 IP maximum.

Bandit Jacket - 900 asta

DEX die +1 Def / INS die +1 Mdef /-1 Initiative

You gain +1 bonus to Accuracy Checks with Daggers.

Cheetah Jacket - 650 asta, martial

10 Def / INS die +1 MDef/ +2 Initiative

Automaton Suit - 1250 asta, martial

Inventor's Shield - 1600 asta

+2 Def

You have immunity to bolt damage.

Accessories

Springloaded Boots - 1200 asta

Spend 3IP to launch yourself into the air, allowing you to attack a single flying enemy with a melee attack, or giving you a +2 on an appropriate skill check.

Inventor's Gloves - 500 asta

You are immune to shaken

Sharpshooter's Lenses - 1000 asta

You gain a +1 bonus to your Accuracy Checks.

Cornergate

This is one of the main ways in/out of the town after you complete the main quest stuff here. There are a handful of random encounters here, but nowhere near as many as in Crookville. It's sort of just a weird corner of the city with nothing going on besides the gate. I don't know why it got its own zone. Maybe I'm missing something.

Highrail

This is where the train to the north comes. You'll walk past this place a BUNCH and go "why can't I just get on a train and get out of here." BE PATIENT! It's also a great place to grind, especially against the modified Loader Bots. The second of three places you could have the boss fight at, depending on your dialog options.

Night Docks

I haven't been able to get into this place yet except for the cutscene where you go to the nearby hotel. It gets closed off after that. But before you go, definitely make sure to buy up as much IP as you can.

Atelier Road

This is what I'd call the "fancy shop" part of town. Later on in the game you can get mage equipment here plus some pretty good accessories, but for now it seems to be locked off by the Valtean Empire and the locals having staredowns.

Roseshore

Despite all the signage warning about a sea monster, this is the fancy beach of the town. It's also the third possible boss fight location—I wonder if the monster gets involved with the fight if you have it there instead of the other places?

COUNTER/Weight 41: A Splintered Branch, A Ringing Bell Pt. 1

COUNTER/Weight 41: A Splintered Branch, A Ringing Bell Pt. 1

It has been four and a half years since the Chime confronted Rigor on the planet of September, an event that has been dismissed as insignificant, yet simultaneously has served as a key catalyst for immense change in the Golden Branch star sector. Living symbols of unity become increasingly erratic and violent. Empowered operatives, both public and hidden, take action against the most corrupt forces in the sector. Noble leaders threaten their own democracies through charm alone. And in the face of increased stress, daring radicals find themselves struggling to keep their revolutions afloat. And now... a familiar voice, a knock on the door, a reminder that there are threats greater still than tomorrow. This week on COUNTER/Weight: A Splintered Branch, A Ringing Bell Pt. 1 Even a watched pot boils eventually...

COUNTER/Weight 40: The Storm Over September

"It is with great joy and humility that we make the debut of this machine today. For so long, so many have struggled here on the frontier. Food is scarce, and time is even more precious. A hard day of labor is a thing to be proud of, but it does not yet stretch far enough. Soon, though, we will thrive, prosper, and if we work with dedication and vigor, we may even profit." -Chief Engineer Irene Klipsch-Dove, 100 years before the activation of the first Stellar Combustor This week on COUNTER/Weight: The Storm Over September The difference is something to do with the sound Or partly to do with the color Hosted by Austin Walker (@austin_walker) Featuring Keith J Carberry (@KeithJCarberry), Jack de Quidt (@notquitereal), Ali Acampora (@ali_west), and Art Tebbel (@atebbel) Produced by Ali Acampora Cover Art by Craig Sheldon (@shoddyrobot) Music by Jack de Quidt A transcription is available for this episode here.A full list of completed transcriptions is available here.

COUNTER/Weight 39: Just Another Machine

COUNTER/Weight 39: Just Another Machine

As the only clock that really matters ticks further and further down, The Chime find themselves facing one sealed door after another. But do the doors protect something precious or keep something dangerous locked safely away? AuDy makes one final attempt at convincing Maryland that the planet isn't a safe place. Mako finds too-brief refuge in the arms of another. Aria Joie's investigation into Maritime Lapel leads her to a dark truth about someone close to her. And Cassander Timaeus Beranice walks alone into a large, dark room. This week on COUNTER/Weight: Just Another Machine What's the worst mistake you've ever made?

COUNTER/Weight 38: Found Footage

COUNTER/Weight 38: Found Footage

As ships pull into high orbit over September and an uncanny groan bleats from below it, The Chime pair off and move to complete their mission. Cassander and AuDy find themselves wondering if there's more to Dr. September's cabin than meets the eye. Meanwhile, Aria Joie and Mako Trig scrub through the past for an answer to the Institute's biggest mysteries. This week on COUNTER/Weight: Found Footage Do you ever wish you could rewind time?

20,000 years before The Chime met on Counterweight, long before the Golden War against Apostolos, the Automated Diaspora devised a plan to stop Rigor once and for all, and at great cost...

COUNTER/Weight 36: Everything is Temporary

Throughout the Golden Branch Star Sector, leaders leap into action as news of a new, galactic threat spreads. Minerva's Steiger sisters move their invisible fleet into position. The Rapid Evening digs in deeper to their new outpost in the sector. Rigor stirs from it's slumber. And on Counterweight, Ibex knocks on a door.

COUNTER/Weight 35: A Knock at the Door

Though the rain seems to clear over the September Institute, The Chime move with well-learned caution. Mako Trig walks familiar steps, only to find something very askew. AuDy and Maryland spar, first over the notion of leaving the planet, and then about more... esoteric things. And Aria and Cass find themselves facing the cost of brief, innocent indecision.

COUNTER/Weight 34: Reaching Out

Maryland September has been located and The Chime are safe but only for the moment. The storm rages outside and with it, threat hangs heavy in the air. In a space that is both familiar and unfamiliar, where does the real danger lie? A simple phone call, a little impatience, a forgotten responsibility, and a distant memory... what could be worse than a little rain?
