Gaming Guide: Kid Icarus Uprising's Intensity system

[Presto99]

I know there are "91" difficulty levels, but it really seems like they only become different at each .5 mark. Example: 7.0 and 7.4 seem exactly the same, but 7.5 makes a small difference. It almost seems to me like the .# number is only to make the number smaller than 10, and to make "average difficulty" more accurate.

Cool font bro

I think its more of a way to measure the drops for the computer, a 2.5 and a 2.7 can have almost a 70 point difference in value, oh and points are also affected, maybe hearts but I don't keep count of them.

 

[RupeeClock]

I've noticed a considerable difference in hearts earned between intensity 8.8 and 9.0 before.

The one time I mistakenly started on 8.8 on Chapter 20, I earned quite a fewer hearts than the 17000+ I expect in the air battle.

Yea, it becomes more noticable at higher levels.

Can anyone recommend some good chapters for 9.0 runs for someone new to this weapon mod thingy (seriously, I barely fuse weapons) I know "Ch.1" but I need something longer.

Gamefan mentioned to me that Chapter 7 is perfect for farming poweful weapons.

I tryed that, but the air battles always own me XD
I tryed the Arum arc but they are almost pure air-battles

Chapter 5 is pretty easy if you have a good lancer staff and trade off for the second bit of the boss battle.

 

[isaac52]

Just get good at chapter 20. After the air battle, it's fairly easy if you have some high damage fast charge weapon like aurum orbitars.

 

[gamefan5]

Chapter 7, 20 and 21 are definetely one of the best to farm weapons.

Shot Range +1

I love this thing, it's got some amazing rapid fire during air battles which helps me out like crazy.
Cleared the first 6 chapters on 9.0 with it easily. But Chapter 8...Thanatos is friggin annoying.

But Chapter 8...Thanatos is friggin annoying.

Don't you mean Chapter 7? That's the one with Thanatos. Chapter 8 is the one with the space pirate ship.

Anyone know what full health boost does? Is it like Health+ or does it raise your max health?

It raises your stats when you have full health, I don't find it very useful at all in the games chapters.

 

[JulietStMoon]

That's what I figured. And yeah, I can't imagine that being particularly useful in a campaign where it's really easy to lose health, and not so common to find health recovery items. Waste of value, in my opinion.

 

[Presto99]

On the other hand, full-health boost-4 would be awesome...but I'm not sure I've seen a negative stat of that.
There is a negative stat of in-peril attack boost... in-peril attack boost -4 brings down the value a bit, and then you just never get in peril! Although that plan doesn't always work, and then you're left with hardly any attack power when you're really desperate.

>.> Er...yes. Though I fear Chapter 8 will be difficult as well.

7 is more difficult than 8, in my opinion. But it's been a while since I've played either of those chapters, and neither were on intensity 9...

No and no. When you are at full health, this stat raises your attack power and speed.
