Perpetua 08: The Flames of Burzin Pt. 4

Perpetua 08: The Flames of Burzin Pt. 4

Why has Burzin been burning? All the clues point back to one place: Lady Teribald's House of Chance. If they're going to solve this mystery—and find out if it's connected to the greater afflictions of the continent—the investigation team must find their way past the gambling hall's many distractions and to Teribald's office in search of answers. And then there will simply be the matter of a final confrontation…

This week on Perpetua: The Flames of Burzin Pt. 4

Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.02] NPCs & Monsters [PNMS] Kalsi's Lantern [NMKLN]

Typical Traits: Glowing, Inconspicuous, Magical

Stats: DEX 8, INS 8, MIG 6, WLP 10

Attacks: Flicker Shot

Special Abilities: Burn Out

In-Game Description: Paper lamps filled with the lively fire of a forgotten god.

Also known as "Mysterious Lanterns" before you get deep into the main quest in Burzin, these are super easy to grind against . Sure, Burn Out means that your whole party takes 10 damage every time you kill one, but that's still way less damage than you'd potentially get in a longer fight against some other low level monsters.

Starter Tip: They're one of the only enemies that are straight up WEAK to regular physical damage! Kind of obvious, but this IS labeled "starter tip" after all.

Mr. Crumb [NMCRM]

Traits: Loyal, Gullible

Stats: DEX 10, INS 8, MIG 6, WLP 8

Attacks: Jab, Revolver Blast, Quickshot (Reaction),

Special Abilities: Elemental Bullet, Deadeye

In-Game Description: Lady Teribald's loyal henchman. A crackshot with his elemental revolver.

Mr. Crumb and Mr. Crust (below) are obviously designed to complement one another. Crust is the close up combatant, which makes Crumb the long ranged sniper. (Can you be a sniper if you just have a revolver?) That said, if you do get into his face, his counterattacks will make you pay for it… unless you've got a high defense score! My advice: Send Antistrophe in there and count on his ability to avoid incoming damage!

Starter Tip: Don't worry too much about his Elemental Bullet attack. It's so unlikely that the magical damage he happens to hit is going to be important to you. But it might be worth grabbing his gun after the fight before you leave the scene and it despawns!

Mr. Crust [NMCRU]

Traits: Cocky, Brutal, Great Smile

Stats: DEX 8, INS 6, MIG 12, WLP 6

Attacks: Wide Swing, Croupier's Rake

Special Abilities: Bodyguard (Reaction), Improved Defenses, Improved HP

In-Game Description: Lady Teribald's personal bodyguard. He's died for her before.

Crust is the designed to look like the heavy hitter in the fight, but mostly he's the "hard to hit"-er. He's got better physical defense than an Embear and the same magical defense as a Flarie, so if you get a stroke of bad luck, you might end up missing him a bunch. But, because of his bodyguard ability, you're gonna just have to power through, because it's not like you can ignore him!

Starter Tip: If you give him the Slow status effect, it drops his defense score by 2, which makes this fight so much easier!

Kalsi, Lantern's Flame [NMKLF]

Traits: Furious, Bright, Lonely

Stats: DEX 6, INS 6, MIG 10, WLP 10

Attacks: Flaming Smash, Flameburst

Special Abilities: Lantern's Light, Lantern's Heat, Flying

In-Game Description: Forgotten God who once called Burzin his home. Led astray.

Okay, the way I beat this fight means I only briefly had to contend with Kalsi directly. But if you try to fight him straight up, it's gonna be tough! He's a Champion class enemy, so he's got a TON of HP, and not only is he immune to Fire and Poison, but by default he has no elemental weaknesses, and he's flying, so you can't melee attack him. Yowch! Talk about a GOD.

Starter Tip: The best way to beat Kalsi is to not have to fight him directly in the first place! The "Objective" move is SO powerful in this game, I wish more Roleplaying Games had something like it!

Lady Teribald [NMLTB]

Traits: ???

Stats: DEX ??, INS ??, MIG ??, WLP ??

Attacks: ???

Special Abilities: Mysterious Necklace

In-Game Description: Drawn into a tragic fate by an alluring, otherworldly power.

Teribald sucks so bad! I hate her so much, and what's worse is I can't figure out how to ACTUALLY FIGHT HER. Every time I run the fight, I have to either take too long to beat Crust and Crumb (so Kalsi emerges, and the fight is with him instead) OR I win via Objective and the fight with her never happens! If I could take Crust and Crumb out quicker, maybe I could get to go against her? Does anyone know if she has any unique loot?

Starter Tip: No idea!

COUNTER/Weight 25: You Can Call Me Captain

COUNTER/Weight 25: You Can Call Me Captain

The Kingdom Come has left the surface of Counterweight, but it hasn't quite made it out of orbit. Between a furious unit out for revenge, and a stuffy military bureaucrat insistent in doing things by the book, the Chime will need to get creative to get away. Cass tries to justify his ownership of Apostolosian materiel, Mako goes on a covert operation with his new best friend, and Aria and AuDy try to keep everything from spinning out of control. This time on COUNTER/Weight: You Can Call Me Captain Who's in charge here again?

COUNTER/Weight 24: It's Still Dark Out

COUNTER/Weight 24: It's Still Dark Out

With the newly formed Righteous Vanguard closing in on them, the Chime makes final preparations for escaping Counterweight. AuDy winds up working as a pawn in a much larger game while Cassander examines the state of the board. Elsewhere, Mako faces an uncannily familiar opponent and Aria Joie finds herself in an unexpected (but not unwelcome) rematch. This week on COUNTER/Weight: It's Still Dark Out Even the heart can be put in checkmate.

COUNTER/Weight 23: An Astonishingly Illegal Ship

COUNTER/Weight 23: An Astonishingly Illegal Ship

As the members of The Chime awake from the memory farm, they return to a world that has changed without them. Corporations may have restructured, empires may have fallen but the threat of Ibex remains and so there is no time to react, only to prepare. Cassander receives their inheritance, Aria turns a rival into a follower, AuDy trades a tray for a pilot's seat and Mako catches glimpses of himself everywhere.

COUNTER/Weight 22: The Broken Branch

COUNTER/Weight 22: The Broken Branch

As our heroes review the past, the Golden Branch Star sector moves forward without them. And it moves towards instability. New corporate initiatives seek to re-establish the status quo. Old heroes come out of retirement, hoping to change things dramatically for the better. Masterminds move chess pieces and pawns contemplate their sacrifices. And above the planet Sage, Grace tightens her fist. This week COUNTER/Weight: The Broken Branch On a long enough timeline, every orbit decays.

COUNTER/Weight 21:  Crisis! (A Solemn Vow Above The Sea of Counterweight)

COUNTER/Weight 21: Crisis! (A Solemn Vow Above The Sea of Counterweight)

Military water running down stainless steel cookware. The rustling of paperwork, yet unsigned. The warm hum and soft glow of engines alight. Distance and purpose, intermingling in the space between stars. A hand on a shoulder. A choice that makes itself. Eyes and voices, hearts and threats, and our familiar hesitation. This week: Crisis! (A Solemn Vow Above The Sea of Counterweight) Some things last a long time.

COUNTER/Weight 20: The Glimmer Incident: The Executive Enters!

COUNTER/Weight 20: The Glimmer Incident: The Executive Enters!

The Chime lay on medical beds on the surface of Counterweight, hooked into a simulation to learn as much as they can about Ibex, candidate of Righteousness. Inside the simulation, members of the Kingdom, a coalition fleet lead by The Kingdom Come, are unsure whether or not to keep Ibex at a distance. Just what is it that makes Ibex a threat, and is he more dangerous near or far? This week on COUNTER/Weight: The Glimmer Incident: The Executive Enters! Keep your friends close...

COUNTER/Weight 19: The Road You Take And Who You Take It With

COUNTER/Weight 19: The Road You Take And Who You Take It With

With Ibex's threat in the air, an old ally reaches out to The Chime with an offer: Learn about your enemy before you suffer the same fate I did. The group--with a few surprise additions--steps into the past to find out what exactly happened ten years ago. Before she was Queen-Captain of the Weightless, who did Tea Kenridge command? What did Addax mean when he said he hurt Cassander? Who piloted the Kingdom Come before it was decommissioned? Why didn't the Rapid Evening stop the war? And what ever happened to Jace Rethal? This week on COUNTER/Weight: The Road You Take And Who You Take It With Let's get this show on the road!

COUNTER/Weight 18: The Order of Things

COUNTER/Weight 18: The Order of Things

The desert winds of Counterweight are broken by the sound of gunfire, as The Chime face foes new and old in the settlement of Seabed City. While Aria Joie finds herself tangled up in a mess of problems (and lasers), Cass proves his mettle as a soldier (and a doctor). Elsewhere, Mako confronts a living godhead and AuDy confronts the grey space between programming and feeling. This week on COUNTER/Weight: "The Order of Things" It's so quiet out here...
