The Sengoku Basara series Thread: NO POLEDANCING KASUGA FOR YOU!

Finally got around to watching the series, I’m at episode 4, Season 1. Can’t help but get more and more annoyed with eh…what’s her name, Kasuga…I’m trying to watch a good fight, when it transitions to her being a bimbo :mad:

None the less, I’m loving what I’m seeing so far.

Just a question about Ishida, I really don’t want to look for the answers, but ok, so I played through his story once, I have to do it 2 or 3 more times to get his whole story done?

Everyone has a minimum of 3 endings in story mode. At least 2 are alternate paths, with the 3rd being fighting against Nobunaga instead of the normal last stage of whatever path it’s on. Some have more than these though

I’ll have to try it out tomorrow, still looking to unlock Choso, so I’ll play Magoichi’s story

How’d you stock up on a lot of Gold Mantises? Did you play Nabu’s stage multiple times?

replaying the same stage is really the only way to make gold items since one of the items needed to make them is always only on one stage

Just finished Ieyasu’s story. Curse my yaoi fangirl mind…he’s so much fun though.

Ieyasu’s headbutt…oh my god. That move alone catapults him to godlike status.

And that Tokugawa Might move…

Ieyasu’s easily my favorite of the three main “good guys.” The full version of his level 3 TAP is godly & so satisfying to land. Huge chunks of life lost & lesser generals are killed instantly.

Argh…can’t wait to play this game.

Oh yeah, Tokugawa Might. That’s the ultimate fodder-killing move in Hero Time. Guaranteed kills, tons of hits, what is there not to love?

Only thing I don’t like about it is it’s kinda aesthetically boring and out of place compared to his other skills. The ground pound looks alot cooler and that’s a basic skill. And really, for me, when everything you have is pretty much broken in some fashion, I would rather pick the move that looks “cooler” to me.

Although, the headbutt is kinda the same, fuck strong but doesn’t look super cool to me lol

Honda’s red ending is so funny to me…

Finally 90% Tsuruhime, her style didn’t impress me much =(
Starting Keiji now, and will aim to get the 5K KO trophy. His attacks seem pretty slow and his first R2 move is…:lol:

Just finished unlocking Nobunaga. Holy shit, he’s good at even level one.

Just wait until you start stealing souls.

Keiji’s R1 attack is hilariously overpowered :V

Picked this up yesterday for 40 bucks. Running with Yukimura currently. Gonna do a coin flip to decide between Date or Mistunari next. Is the only real way to buff your defense is with items?

That…and finding fugitives that give you permanent DEF boost.

What Geese Pants said. If you want an easier time KOing Fugitives, you’ll need the following-
Jade Phoenix (KOing enemies will fill up the hero gauge with more energy)
The Acc. that fills up the hero gauge from the start of the battle
Hanzo Hattori

First beat the game with Yukimura to unlock Kotaro, beat the game with Kotaro, then play Kotaro again and fight in the follow stages-
Tsuruhime–>Motochika–>Saica or Ishida–>Tokugawa–>Beat this route

This’ll unlock Hanzo as an ally. When his conf. is maxed out, Hanzo will increase the chances of a Fugitive appearing in a stage along with indicating their location.
A fugitive will appear in a stage app. 2 mins. into the stage. KOing a fugitive gives you 10k EXP, if you KO one when in Hero mode, you get double exp, so try to KO them while in Hero mode (better with an O attack).
Note that Fugitives DROP the stat boost and you must pick it up after they are KOed (though you usually end up picking it up either way usually).
