I wanted to post here to let you know that your hard type hack of MQ has been obliterated with minimal effort i had no problems beating it, end game lvl 33, still lower than endgame phobe's lvl 34
comments: game up to t-rex was quite refreshingly hard, but after wards it became a joke, slightly harder than original but still a joke, i never worried about running out of ammo or pots, once i obtained holy, the entire game was pretty much gg, bosses were either holy or flare spam till dead, dark king was a surprise but nothing that ragnarok bashing and auto healing from phobe cannot handle.
suggestions: nerf the holy and flare's power, and definitely nerf armors as well. With full endgame gear i was virtually immune to every status attack that dark king spammed at me, and maybe tone down giga axe's power, once i got it, it was my main weapon till i got ragnarok, heck nerf that as well, its too OP, i suspect it has hidden crit attack increase modifier since i crit alot with that weapon and one shot everything, i dont remember critting 80% of time in original with excalibur. Cure is most OP spell in entire game, heals you to full health for cost of 1 point
pros: early half is harder than orignal, t-rex made me tear my hairs out
, standard goons gave me trouble with confusion hax and pertify. AI was dumber than original in this hack at least it seems to me so doesnt always heal when i want them to. Way to go at nulling cure glitch on dark king making me earn the victory
cons: once you acquire 2nd set of armors, it becomes a joke, AI is still OP as hell, ohkoing everything with their main weapon except for bosses or resists. ragnarok is extremely strong, i am critting 80% of time typically doing 1300-1800 per crits one shotting everything even late game, JCE i wonder if you accidentally put in increased crit modifier or i am extremely lucky. hydra boss and panzu boss wasnt a challenge, holy and flare did heavy damage to them typically doing 1800-2400. and maybe tone down cure's power as well, it tends to heal me to full health per casting maybe tone that down too it makes dark king's fight easy as long phobe stays alive.
final comments: Great hack, i had fun with this difficulty mod, it was a breath of fresh air, i look forward to possible improvements you make into this hack
