DRAGON QUEST XI - 15 - I Found the Casino! All Draconian Quest Options

Описание: I... Don't really get these slot machines; I mean I figured out the mechanics of the Slime's Quest kind of, but half of it doesn't seem to be affected by what you get from the slots. But, these Slime Quest slots seem to be the safe way when you're starting out. I started with 200 tokens (4000 Gold - thankfully this doesn't count as "shopping," cause it's gambling!) and ended with over 100k. The thing about these is that you can push Options and the game will auto-spin 100 times, so you can do something else while the game spins itself (and I assume most of the point of Slime Quest is just watching it if you have nothing else to do).
The definite best way of earning tokens are the Monster Feed sections - there's a part in the video where I made over 11k in one segment! As for the Orbs you can collect that're stored on the right... Don't worry about those at all. When you collect those, it adds token bonuses to when you run into a Gem Slime AND roll a row of Gem Slimes. If you just run into one, it seems for the 10-token machine, that you get 90 tokens, but with the orbs, it’s like 5800ish tokens. The chances of running into a Gem Slime AND getting the slots for it tend to be really really rare. I myself only had it happen twice - not worth the effort or the curiosity, but I have this segments as part of this video also.

On top of Draconian Quests, there are 2 other restrictions I’ve placed on myself, but this is mainly because it’s just how I normally play RPGs.

1 - No use of permanent stat boost items. This isn’t really for additional challenge as I tend to be conservative and wait until end-game or post-game to better plan out stat boost items in general. The exception to this was Seed of Skill for Skill Points

2 - Hero will be in for majority of every Boss Battle. So even though you can compensate for Shypox by swapping out the main Hero, I play it pretty much as normal, which is to always implement the Hero. If I have to, I’ll swap for strategy purposes

Info on the Draconian Quest modifiers and clarification (because I get asked a lot):

No Fleeing from Battle - Self-explanatory

No Shopping - Can’t buy items, weapons or armor; as an example, even from Mistress Bev who tries to sell you overpriced Holy Water won’t sell to you. Church/statue services are still valid though

No Armour - None at all. That also includes no shield and no accessories. Only weapons. This coupled with above though means you can’t buy weapons either.

Reduced Experience from Easy Fights - This is a little misleading; the in-game description makes it sound like you’ll get even less experience from weaker enemies, but you actually get ZERO experience from weaker enemies. So you can’t grind indefinitely to make up for no armor.

All Enemies Are Super Strong - Enemies have stronger stats, so you hit for less and they hit harder, and in some cases, have more than one turn because they’re faster. Don’t know about their HP or multiplier differences from their base. This along with no armor means they hit a whole heck of a lot harder, and you’ll have to keep up with gaining new weapons just to hit incrementally higher. And since you can’t grind indefinitely to compensate, you have to approach battles with a lot more thought in mind. Not that grinding will compensate for much since Resilience/Defence grows at a crawl.

Shypox - This is probably the worse thing of all when included with everything else. You’ll sometimes be “embarrassed” because of something, which makes you lose a turn. Absolutely detrimental. If it procs twice in a row, you’ll probably wipe immediately. This only affects the Hero however, but even at later parts in the game with a full party, losing a turn means having to adapt to a new strategy on the fly. To play it easier though, you can actually just swap out the main Hero. As a tiny advantage, sometimes when struck with a ailment, the Hero will be unaffected and a message will instead read, “Hero seems to be embarrassed.”
