I think it's pretty cool so far, but some parts are much much harder than DoS or PoR; so get ready to do some level-grinding right away.

I'm up to the skeleton cave now (level 14) and it's kicking my ass.
Anybody else out there have this game yet???

Been playing the japanese leak but now have the english version.

It's good (not great) in my opinion. None of the music was catchy to me either. And I agree that it's much harder than DoS or PoR. :P

i haven't found any part of the game hard yet. there were some annoying enemies, though.

the only music that stood out was the channel. everything else is meh.

Maybe I was just out of practice...the first 3-4 bosses seemd pretty tough, but after the skeleton cave, the difficulty seemed to drop back to normal.

Can you guys list all your transformations?

I have bat-lady and cat-lady, but I heard there is 4. I think the 4th is near the end of the game...to fly?
Can anybody confirm a robot transformation?

only 3. there's a second robot that drops it. there's no 4th transformation. i checked in the files, only 3 icons for transform glyphs.


btw. this game's the best cv title for ds definitely. surely beats dos, and let's not even mention portrait, that was no contest from the beginning. :o

I totally agree, this blows PoR out of the water.

Back to the robot...I know of the tin man (it's not that one, right?) and the little robot that talks, and says "let's play" or something like that...I'm pretty sure I checked his enemy page and saw no glyph drop. So does the other robot look just like the little one, but with a higher level or something?

I thought the music in the Training Area and Large Cavern was quite nice (Aquarius, from CV III).

I've beaten it 100%, playing on NG+ Normal just to see how many boss medals I can get. Got them all up to the fish (but this is kinda cheating to get them).

d'oh! I can't believe I never even touched that guy before. He was the only enemy missing from my list--I must have jumped over him every time:)

Sir VG: is there any point to boss medals, or is it just a completionist sorta thing?

I have a few questions:

-In Kalidus Channel, how do I get rid of the rocks that are blocking some passages?
-In Mystery Manor, how do I navigate through the area that has no light?
-Where can I find Onyx and Gold Ores?
-What is Irina's 3rd sidequest and how do I get it? I've completed the first 2 but that one is still unavailable.

1. There's some barrels on balloons in the same room. You need to push the barrels with your body so they move close to them, then strike them to blow them up. Remember to get the secret room by the east one.
2. Blindly. It's not too hard, you just have to take your time.
3. Gold Ores I found all over the place. Same with Onyxes. If nothing else, they can be bought from people on WiFi.
4. Irina's 3rd quest is to defeat Jiang Shi, which is in the last room of the Large Cavern. You can't do that until you've gone through the alternate exit in Dracula's Castle. I assume it's unavailable to you because you haven't even revealed that level.

Ok thanks. Are there any enemies in particular that drop gold ore and/or onyx? I have 100% completion on all areas except for Mystery Manor and Dracula's Castle.

The highest frequency for me is the Large Cavern. I don't remember what specifically drops it, or of any other places off hand, but LC will be the best place to look.

tin man, double hammer and weapon master drop gold ore. but there's enough of it hidden in the chests around the castle for the 3 gold ore quest.
