After escorting Frederica to a shaded spot outside the Ministry of Medicine, Serenoa takes some time to get to know the city. Things are a bit more involved this time than they were when Serenoa searched for Lord Dragan and prepared for the tourney, respectiv
Upon their arrival in Hyzante, Serenoa’s entourage is reminded rather brusquely of the Hyzantian distaste toward Frederica and all other Roselle. Moments later, the group meets with the hierophant, who speaks through Minister Idore and poses a quest
There are breaking points throughout Triangle Strategy that will branch the game out into multiple timelines. The first major decision will have players choose whether they want to visit the kingdom of Hyzante or the kingdom of Aesfrost. This is at the end of chapter three, part one. At first, it seems like players will only get an exclusive character from each campa
Luckily, you can take in your entire roster with you for this battle , and Dragan has a pretty good head on his shoulders. Once you’ve managed to take the heat off of him, he should head to a safe part of the battlefield and camp
One unique twist Triangle Strategy has upgraded from its spiritual predecessor, Final Fantasy Tactics , is allowing players to explore towns and other maps. This is called Exploration Mode. Here, players can talk to citizens as well as gather items marked by sparkles on the ground. Don’t pass them
What is known is that Triangle Strategy is here and it has been doing great in reviews. It is a return to the classic formula, satisfying in almost every way. However, it’s seemingly impossible to release a game without any problems. These are just a few examples of the things this lengthy game gets right and wr
Positioning is very important in a strategy RPG . Triangle Strategy has more reasons to be wary of troop placement, because units can help take down enemies. For example, let’s say Serenoa is stationed directly behind an enemy, and then Frederica attacks from the front. This will create a linked attack. This only works with physical attacks though. To bring up Frederica again, as a mage, she uses spells like f
As a result, it’s important to pay attention during this chapter. There are two exploration events and a battle to contend with, so there are plenty of items and tidbits of info to miss. But don’t worry, you’re in safe hands with
There are a lot of characters to keep track of in the story. While not perfect, there is an aid players can take advantage of. Most story characters in Triangle Strategy will have a character bio. Clicking a button while someone is talking will bring up a nicely illustrated portrait as well as their basic i
This event introduces Prince Frani, Roland’s older brother, and a whole host of other significant characters from the three factions of the game. You will also meet Hughette, a future party member who wields a bow and rides a h
One thing that is missing completely is cutscenes. The PSP version of Final Fantasy Tactics added cel-shaded cutscenes to some major plot points, and they looked great. They aren’t needed in Triangle Strategy but they would have rounded out the package nic
Having agreed to help Sycras with the sting operation, you now have all of Central Aesfrost to explore. As always, there are items and tidbits of info to pick up , and a few conversations that lead to Conviction boosts – the NPCs that give these have exclamation marks above th
This is your first time in an exploration event with a merchant . Interacting with merchants is limited to the event, and they will sometimes tout exclusive wares. Always be sure to take a look at their stock. If you’re curious but low on coin, feel free to partake in a Mental Mock Battle or two back at the Encampm
Regardless of the route you picked in Chapter Three, Triangle Strategy’s story reconvenes for this chapter. This chapter is an interesting one, giving you some glimpses of the Grand Norzelian Mines and the living situation of the Rosellan peoples in Glenbr
Dragan sure seemed shift at Roland’s arrival, didn’t he? After a short scene, you’ll receive The Power of Salt added to your Notes and get a chance to explore a small area of the mines. As ever, this comes with some things to pick
It’s the type of SLG Game tips that should get a lot of players online to buy the CD whenever it is out. It shouldn’t be surprising by now that Square Enix hires great musicians for their RPGs and yet Triangle Strategy still manages to s
In this event, Serenoa takes Frederica to a Rosellan Village within Glenbrook’s borders to ask them to make a dress for their wedding. While Frederica is having her measurements taken, Serenoa is prompted to take a look around the village. This is an exploration event with lots of interesting lore to pick up from the Rosellans, but also a few to grab,
After taking part in your first momentous vote in Triangle Strategy , you will be taken to either the Grand Duchy of Aesfrost or the Holy State of Hyzante. With the former route, Serenoa and co. get to see the chilly north for the first time in the game and meet Archduke Gustadolph. With a large exploration event and a pretty difficult battle to contend with, this route can be a challenge. Luckily, it also comes with a nice reward – the ex-salt smuggler Rudolph, who makes for a fine addition to the team. More Walkthroug
