Why not Kalamari?

It bugs me that they used up a boss in Memories lane on the friggin' Servant of Darkness, a monster that can be re-battled whenever at the Heavenly Dias... Why not give Kalamari a spot? He deserves it more than that miniboss-at-best...

  • I guess I never thought about it that way. I guess they are all dead... Now it makes a bit more sense... Kalamari was shown leaving after you defeat him, So I always assumed he was still alive. I still don't think the Servant of Darkness was a good choice. Heck, even the statues would've been better in my opinion, because at least they can't be rebattled later...

  • And as far as Kalamari having a water area, I feel that they could've done without one as they didn't make a special area for Ruin, who would need a pit or something to be climbing out of to replicate the Black Citadel's battle.

  • They still could've added them tho even if that is true. Highly doubt geyzer and don mole died. By "slain" they simply could mean defeated also for the ones with questionable deaths. I look at it more as a place where their hatred for the party lingers on which could explain their increase in power there too from their normal versions. Even rhapthorne himself could've had a stronger version-

  • But considering how much hell that place is im actually glad they didn't drag it on any longer. Marcello mem by himself is terrible and is the most difficult there imo. Has the highest crit chance more than anyone there and can very easily ohko u. At max lvl or close to it that place is more bearable during the later half but even so marcello mem is still a beast as with a few others there.

  • ^I think Evil Jess would like a word with ya, CB.

  • Evil jess isn't that bad as long as u have red and the good jess out there and she knows magic burst. Red and Jess can't be confused and 2 timbrels helping get the tension up faster makes it even easier. Marcello mem on the other hand can 1 shot u all day with a basic swipe of the sceptre, and can fizzle your entire party forcing u to rely on healing items. Then he has that annoying death spell.

  • He has way too much going for him that makes him insanely cheap.

  • In response to what CrazyBeast said two hours ago: :/ I would agree that Geyzer is definately not dead, and I honestly didn't even think of him until now... I would also have easily agreed on Don Mole still being alive too, if it weren't for his Battle Record description. Now I'm not so sure, as I can't tell if it's just a joke or not...

  • If Don Mole IS really dead, than I actually feel really bad for the citizens of the Mole Hole... Except for his music, they loved everything about him, and I would feel awful if I killed him just to get the harp...

    Yeahs3

  • Considering how this game loves its puns (localization must've lost it or something), I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they "killed" him off just for the musical puns...

  • That's a bit extreme if he is dead. All he wanted was to play music and be good at it. Ik his music was bad but not bad enough to be killed over it lol. They took getting that harp back way too seriously if he is dead xD sheesh.

    Yeahs1
