what about Ameria ? is she still look the same as in s4 ? because if i can recall correctly, she stops putting on make up after the war that even her friends can't recognize her
so she should be very different right ?

She looks the same to me.

Ameria even asked for beauty tips from Jeane and Maxine in one of the optional Caravan events.

Sounds like Elaine from Suikoden III, comparing herself to Jeane.

who is Laracle ?
i mean what makes her special that she is only recuitable in the second time playthrough ?

Not that much. She's the owner of the quest guild and you end up visiting her quite a lot in your first playthrough. She's also one of the most powerful characters who can join you in the game.

I'm glad someone finally asked, because I was just about to.

Sars, what is it that makes Larcle so powerful? What type of character is she; support or fighter? Also, could you tell us how you used her in battle, that is of course if you used her, along with her strenghts and weaknesses?

she looks ... just like an ordinary girl ... townsfolk who doesn't fight ... unlike Millay or Oulan who looks strong

Well, Corselia doesn't exactly look strong, either, and she's a fine mage. Since there is more than just brute fighting involved in the Suikoden series, you really can't judge a character by looks alone. Even if this series only involved brute strength, you still couldn't judge someone from looks alone, since they could be hiding something.

Lalacle (Her name was spelled like this in the ending trailers, I believe!! Damn Konami!) is a powerful fist fighter. With a Leo Rune, she can dish out like 3000 damage. She is frickin' powerful. I guess she is sort of like the "looks like a simple girl but actually friggin' powerful" stereotype. You do get the impression from her that she's not quite normal in your first time around while you get all those quests from her, though.

I think she's also one of the fastest characters in the game.

Angelis_Taleria · Post by **Angelis_Taleria** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 9:30 pm

Well this brings up a new question, are there enemies in-game that can actually withstand the force of Lalacle and Lazlo or are they one hit killers just like Orlandu?

Post by **Vextor** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 9:35 pm

If you use the Punishment Rune's level 2 spell on an enemy with favorable elemental configurations, you can kill any enemy with one shot (as long as you're at about the same level). Lalacle is the same deal, although she is a bit weaker at lower levels.

Jowy Atreides · Post by **Jowy Atreides** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 9:45 pm

I'm supsised about her; I really expected her to be a mage.

Angelis_Taleria · Post by **Angelis_Taleria** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 9:53 pm

Is there any explanation to her freakish strenght or is she merely strong?

Like Jowy, I assumed that she would be a mage as well. Konami fooled me.
