Really... i found the beggining of the game pretty bad for making money, or adventuring (yeah, i need gear to survive, and need money to go to dungeons.
"Well, ill visit that old tailor to learn some tailoring tricks. They can be useful! Oh, some materials, lets steal that. OH MAN, PEACEFUL MAGES! LETS KILLL!
For real? You guys must stop complaining about luck, and dont look only at the first combination. Try combos. Extra Turn. Rainbow (great to instant rage), upgrade character. Strategy? Man, he is AI, he will attack when he have a chance. Ever. See, i beat him at 2nd time, w/o all upgrades. What i did? 100% def up, 144% counter blow. I just let him use his rage in me. But, for real. If you wanna survive, use ever you can def up. (100%)
Okay, okay. I hit easily the 700000 feets using Marcus with: Metal Bracers, Walkman, Red Headband (forgot name) and Ice sword. Hitted the geek straight horizontal at max power (OH CRAP, AT LV 15 I DID IT! (max str, and accuracy, and some control to speed him pressing > button.), and used the 8 extra slashs to let him go faster, and faster. Just need a bit of luck (2 tries for me), because cannons, and the punch chuck norris robot is needed too. My Extra blos was over at 650000 feets, and 1 cannon + punch was enough to finish him off. + to keep this alive.
Oh... crap! At the beggining of game i used to buy lots of taekwons from a fishing village. Okay. But... that is a taekwon city. I hired hundreds of taekwons from that village.
Woah, thats really a geek? GUY! He was hit by a super ice sword, at 190943029750 mph, gone to space, hit the earth in fire, hit 5 times by some kind of super robot, and he just wake up, and continue trolling? LOL
Bad viking is really a very nice bike. Why? He have a average speed, but his center of gravity is very, very low, then, bail with him is pretty hard. Stunts arent that hard, etc.
