Troubleshooting / Rasonable Difficulty Patch - Mythril Mines are now crawling with Bottomswells!
« on: 2014-04-11 09:12:46 »
I would post this in the thread for the reasonable difficulty patch, but it got locked because of a "no necroposting" rule that no longer exists.
This patch was pretty much as advertised for the first part of the game, but I just got to the Mythril Mines and every fight is a Bottomswell! This is supposed to be a boss found a little later in the game, and even at its original stats, let alone as augmented by this patch, is nuts for a random encounter, even in what's supposed to be a more difficult game. If nothing else it makes this area very, very tedious with long fight after long fight and party members constantly being completely shut down.
Is this intentional? I played with this patch once before, I didn't finish but I'm sure I got further than this, and I don't remember it being like this the previous time. If this is a bug, what are some likely candidates for the cause?
