I. INTRODUCTION [01]
============================================================================
Well everyone I'm back! It's been a really long while since my last guide.
(nearly 8 months to be exact) But I have several lined up for the next few
months (including this one). It feels so good to be able to write again. ^_^
Another thing, feel free to send questions, comments, suggestions, and
contributions. Ok, I'm done talking so let's begin!
============================================================================
II. GAME BASICS [02]
============================================================================
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>MENUS<< [02a]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are the translations of the options in the PET's menu screen.
Program Deck Chip Folder Data Library
Net Navi E-mail Save Comm.
Now, if you access the Chip Folder sub-menu, you'll see 2 options. They are:
-> Edit
-> Equip
If you happen to choose Edit, and decide to organize your chips, you'll
encounter these options:
ID
Alphabet
MB
AP
Element
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>BATTLE SYSTEM<< [02c]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is where the game gets a little more complex. So for the sake of
clarity, I'll explain every element of the battle system one-by-one.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Program Deck [02c-i]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Program Deck looks somewhat like this:
____ ____
| SC | _____| |
|____| ____ | |____|
_____| |_____|
____ | |____| |_____ ____
_____| |_____| _____| |
____ | |____| |_____ ____ | |____|
| NC |______| _____| |_____|
|____| | ____ | |____| |_____ ____
|_____| |_____| _____| |
|____| |_____ ____ | |____|
| |_____|
____ |____| |_____ ____
| SC | | |
|____| |____|
The box marked with "NC" is the ONLY spot where you can put in a Navi Chip.
While the 2 boxes marked with "SC" are the spots for Slot-In Chips. Now
with that said, I'll go back to my explanation on Navi Chips.
Navi Chips affect the overall capacity of your Program Deck. It can either be
increased or decreased depending on which Navi chip you use. Also, you can
use any Navi chip you want as long as you have it in your Chip Folder.
Now let's talk about Slot-In chips. On the top-right corner of the Program
Deck screen, you should see the words SLOT MAX: ??MB. This indicates the
maximum allowable size of the battle chip you can use for Slot-Ins. For
example, I'll replace the "??" above with 20. In this case, I'll only be
able to use chips less than, or exactly 20MB in size for Slot-Ins. That
number will increase as you progress through the game.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
All About Battle Chips [02c-ii]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A battle chip has 4 different parameters, and they are:
HP AP
MB Element
Now, some of you might wonder, why there's an HP value. Well, that's because
contrary to the other EXE games, battle chips can now be deleted. Once that
happens, the chip will be gone for the whole battle. Ok, more on that later.
AP is the amount of damage a battle chip deals on an opponent, or the amount
of HP it adds to your Navi. (in the case of a Recovery chip)
MB is obviously the size of a battle chip. And the ELEMENT of a chip can
either be FIRE, WATER, WOOD, or LIGHTNING
Notes on Elemental Navi Chips
-----------------------------
When an elemental Navi uses a battle chip with the same element as it does,
the attack power of the battle chip is increased by nearly twice as much as
it's normal strength.
For example if Heatman uses a Flame Sword, this is what happens:
Normal Damage: 80 Heatman: 130
Also, if a wood-type Navi uses a wood-type chip, the panels on the
battlefield will be changed to grass. (only works on METAL panels)
Chip Types
----------
Now if you place your cursor on a battle chip, you do see words on a gray
background, below the picture of the chip right? What are these for, you
ask? Well, I'll explain everything in the list below. Note that this isn't
complete yet, but I'm working on it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ノ一マル (Normal)
EFFECT: Damages Navi only.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ツイカ
EFFECT: Damages Navi chip, and 1 of the 3 battle chips that are
available for that turn.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: 全ツイカ
EFFECT: Damages Navi chip, and ALL 3 of the battle chips that are
available for that turn.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: カンツウ (Piercing)
EFFECT: Penatrates the guard-type chip and damages the Navi. The chip
will also take damage.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ランダム (Random)
EFFECT: Damages Navi chip. May or may not damage 1 of the 3 battle
chips that are available for that turn. Has Piercing ability.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ブレイク (Break)
EFFECT: Deletes the guard chip used by your opponent, and damages the
Navi. So don't expect guard-type chips to provide any form of
protection against battle chips with the Break ability.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: 全ブレイク (Break All)
EFFECT: Deletes Guard type chips and damages all other forms of battle
chips that are available for that turn. Attack also damages the
Navi.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ダブル ?? (Double ??)
EFFECT: Damage = ??x2 (?? depends on the attack power of the battle
chip.(Damages the Navi only.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: トリプル ?? (Triple ??)
EFFECT: Damage = ??x3 (?? depends on the attack power of the battle
chip.(Damages the Navi only.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: マヒ (Paralysis)
EFFECT: Damages and paralyzes Navi. This disables the Navi's basic
weapon.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: マヒボム (Paralysis Bomb)
EFFECT: Deals damage to all battle chips that are available for that
turn. Also paralyzes Navi. (I'll say this again: Paralysis
disables a Navi's basic weapon.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ハンゲキ (Counterattack)
EFFECT: Counterattacks if attacked. The chip will take damage whenever
you hit it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: 全ハンゲキ
EFFECT: Same as above. But this time it will damage the Navi, and all 3
of his battle chips.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: R ハンゲキ
EFFECT: Steals an opponent's turn if he uses a close-range chip. Attack
damages Navi and 1 of his 3 battle chips.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: メテオ (Meteor)
EFFECT: Meteors fall from the sky and attacks the Navi multiple times.
(either 3, 4, or 5 depending on the number indicated on the
chip) Note that the hit rate is random.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: デリト (Delete)
EFFECT: Instantly deletes any 1 of the 3 battle chips that are
available for that turn. (Regardless of HP.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: カイフク (Recovery)
EFFECT: Restores a Navi's HP. (the amount of HP restored depends on the
AP of the chip)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: バリア (Barrier)
EFFECT: Nullifies damage from any type of attack once. The barrier will
disappear after taking one hit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: オラ80 (Aura 80)
EFFECT: Nullifies damage from all types of attacks that are equivalent
to 80 and below. Doesn't provide immunity from attacks that
have the opposing element.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: タメ
EFFECT: Absorbs all the damage from an opponent's attacks, and adds the
values together to determine the chip's attack power at the end
of the turn. (If it wasn't deleted in the process.) The chip
won't receive damage from an attack of the same element.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ゲ一ジ (Gauge)
EFFECT: Either adds or subtracts 50 from the percentage value of your
Slot-In Gauge, depending on the type you use.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ハンシャ
EFFECT: Counterattacks whenever you hit, but fail to damage it. Shockwave
inflicts 40 HP damage.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ラッキ一 (Lucky)
EFFECT: Increases the probability of getting a chip at the end of a
battle.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: ガ一ド (Guard)
EFFECT: Blocks an opponent's attacks. (Will be effective until the chip
is deleted, or the until the turn ends.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHIP TYPE: パネル チェンジ (Panel Change)
EFFECT: Alters the panels on the battlefield.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inserting Battle Chips [02c-iii]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
During battle, you should see a small bar at the bottom of your screen. This
is the Slot-In Gauge. It will fill up by 5% after every move you and your
opponent make. Once it reaches about 45%, you will be allowed to use your
Slot-In chips by pressing either the L or R buttons.
But I strongly recommend that you let the gauge fill up to at least 50-55%,
or even 100 if you can. Since the percentage determines the success rate of
your attempt in sending a battle chip to your Navi.
If the percentage is too low, then your Slot-In attempt will fail. Once this
happens, you'll have to wait for the gauge to fill up again. Now if your
attempt succeeds, then the Navi will immediately use the chip you sent.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Battlefield [02c-iv]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
First off, you should know that, you have no control whatsoever over dodging
your opponent's attacks. Your opponent's offensive attempts may miss, but
this seems to be totally based on luck.
Now, the program deck will appear at the start of every turn, letting you
know which battle chips you can use for that round. The chips that are
available will be highlighted, while those that are not will be grayed out.
Same thing goes for your opponent.
You can only use a total of 3 battle chips per turn, along with your Navi's
basic weapon. Also, all the empty slots in your Program Deck will be marked
with an "X". The set of chips that can be used for a turn are randomly
chosen. (empty slots included) Thus, it will be a very good idea to spread
your chips evenly throughout the Progam Deck, since ending up with an empty
slot during battle can be a really bad thing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Panel Alterations [02c-v]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are 7 types of panels in this game: Normal, Magma, Ice, Metal, Grass,
Poison, and Hole. Here's what each of these panel types do.
Normal: Nothing
Magma: Inflicts 50 HP damage to non-elemental Navis.
Ice: Dramatically increases a Navi's agility. So expect your attacks to
miss very often. Also doubles the attack power of electric-type
chips.
Metal: Also doubles the attack power of electric-type chips.
Grass: Recovers 50 HP to Wood type Navis. Some wood-type battle chips can
only be used on Grass panels. Doubles the attack power of fire-type
chips.
Poison: 20 HP damage to Navi and all of the battle chips that are usable
for that turn. (Affects both you and your opponent.) The 20 HP
thing takes effect every turn.
Hole: Disables all close range hitting chips. (All types of Swords,
Bronze/Silver/Gold Fists, etc)
============================================================================
WALKTHROUGH [03]
============================================================================
When you start a new game, you'll have to pick a character that you wish to
play as. You can choose either one of these characters: Netto, Enzan, Meiru,
Kaita, Dekao or Mary/Marie. But as for this guide, I'll start with Netto.
Also, the timeline of this game is June 200X, with Netto in 6th grade.
