I know that every foe can technically be found in the Grand Gallery, but I'm curious about which foes do and don't respawn.
Anyone have a list?
I checked Farming, there is a big fight to the left of the Mystic Woods warp that also boasts Purple Squid, though I don't know if it respawns.
I was thinking more a view of the map, though the thing about the Panda is interesting. I could have sworn there was a respawning one in the top right corner of the Mystic Woods, but I doubt that's the case since its blocking the path to the Leafy Boots.
I suppose the idea was that by having it separate, then items with changing text would be able to show both, but I can't actually think of any equips that changed text. I wouldn't know though, I didn't notice it had happened until sometime afterwards.
Any idea when it happened? We could probably return the equip table to normal but not undo the edits themselves, because a lot of them have had some serious changes to the description and the like.

It's possible to beat the game on Zero difficulty with only NORMAL ATTACKS and no limit breaks or skills, leveled or not. If you want an actual challenge, do so on Normal. Epic might be a bit much, but with enough grinding I imagine its feasible; that's veering towards 4 White Mage territory though.
So, do it on Normal. See what happens.
I prefer the cookie example:
Person 1: I wish I could eat a delicious plate of cookies every day
Person 2: Granted. The plate is delicious, but the plate is still made out of porcelain so it causes internal bleeding and you die.
Anyways...
Granted, but it is a boring inanimate bush.
I wish for 99 of each stat booster.
This is a wiki, you don't need to help anyone find something XD
Though sometimes people do misinterpert things (like the Flame Sprite being a plant), this is literally a place built to remedy that problem without requiring a lengthy conversation.
Also the Bullet Heaven foe lists are not really a thing at the moment, it was on WTF-8's todo list I think and he gets antsy about people doing a shoddy job (since he has to go through and clean everything up). 9/10 of the BH foes appear in EBF at some point, though its a topdown view instead of a profile one, so it can sometimes be hard to tell.
I'm sorry, I would need a little more information about that. "Red flaming plants" sounds like either a Magma Chomper or a Roasted Gloop.
Your old save doesn't go away, just start from your last save. If you didn't save right before fighting the final boss then you may lose some of the time you spent, but otherwise there should be no negative side effects. Remember to save regularly and in several different slots if you haven't already.
Is *that* what's behind the final room in Grand Gallery? I'm close to getting all medals, but I'm not sure if we need the full version medal to get in. (I just have final boss on Epic left).
Look at it like this:
The dude needs money, most of the music can be found pretty easily just by wandering around and I guess there always will be youtube if you don't mind hideous quality.
Minor spoiler: it is mentioned that the party never fights anything "as great" ever again, which I feel is intentional- the universe eating monstrosity card means that their top floor is a fate of the universe level threat...meaning that in theory, plenty of lesser threats will still be impressive (Akron would destroy the world's life, but he still was mighty enough to deserve a game dedicated to fighting him. And then a second time.). So in a sense, that line was put in to give the player a sense of finality, but also to hint that maybe the series will go on if Matt feels like it.
On the articles:
Gigalith and the Devourer are two articles then. Devourer and its many parts would be a bit more difficult, but since it is going to be a massive article anyways (final boss and everything) it should be fine for each to be on the same page, unless they seriously ramp up their battle patterns in hard/epic.
I am not even sure if it was half HP of damage, I just took like that because she had... half of her HP (not sure if she is weakened to that point)
But yeah, the point is, I don't think is normal that final bosses with the same level on the highest difficulty should be able to take half of their HP in one skill/magic ya know (not even a limit break), even if that skill requires a little of risk put into it.
The latest and greatest in world endi- absolutely actually final bosses is weak to Dark, can be weakened AND cursed. SoulZerker anyone? ;)
Based on the end battle conversations, this does not seem to be the first time the party has fought the final boss (Gigalith included). He also seems to have some role in the other cataclysmic events in the series (most probably sealing Akron and rigging the system so the party awakens him) but I'm not particularly sure. This suggests that the true final boss is the top floor (there can be other end bosses with immense might, but nothing AS powerful) without literally fighting the developer team.
Okay so I'm going to do this in two parts one spoilerly one not.
Non spoiler (Question about article formatting): The EBF5 final boss is separated into two waves. This is really not a problem on its own, but unlike Godcat they are two different foes. It isn't Destroyer and Creator or even ExDeath and Neo ExDeath, its more like having the Colossus and Echinda on the same page. So I'm kind of confused as to what to do- do we make two separate pages for Final Boss A and B or stick them on one page and rename it Final Boss B?
Spoiler (commentary on the Final Boss):
EDIT:In retrospect, the final boss makes a bit more sense. It is more offputting thematically then most other things (Godcat and Akron you had all this buildup, you knew what was coming, this was more just "kill the monolith core thingy and poof true boss appears!".
So...um. Turns out the Beholder isn't a good guy after all! Though we could have guessed what with the tentacles and sharp attacking thingies. This guy is called the Devourer, apparently he(?)'s the one in charge of the Monolith Rain and the Great Impact. He truly takes after Godcat, seeing as he has several helpers to aid him in his devastation. But what is it supposed to be? This seems to be a mild case of Giant Space Flea from Nowhere syndrome- we spend the journey knowing that something is probably controlling the monoliths, but I would have expected that alien god thing on the ruins or a sentient ball of light with some sort of ethereal battle suit. He seems to be in charge of...well...everything that has happened in this game, and he does seem to be the true true true antagonist behind all the things. However, he seems like he should have been elaborated on a bit more- is the series a simulation run by him? Or is it he is creating a simulation to try to figure out how to get rid of the party and make his dream universe? The game is frigging amazing in basically all respects, but the way the final boss is shown it feels like more of a startling revelation than an epic climax. Or maybe its just that it being Beholder v358.0 instead of an obviously Cosmic Monolith like entity or something modeled after the color scheme.
Yeah this is going to be the first steam game I've bought in a long time.
You could argue that you wouldn't want to play for a month after the official release, but not because of bugs but rather because there will probably be ~5% more content added in.
Exactly 15.79 will.
Don't ask why.
Or how.
Maybe they could be all orphans.
This suggests that Lance was raised by an abusive father, possibly leading to his mindset and actions in EBF2. And maybe that his mother was killed by his father, though that is far more speculative and something I'd rather not give more thought.
Maybe they could be all orphans.
On one hand, Lance has a dad. It's a vital part of his backstory, albiet a subtly mentioned one.
On the other, we are NOT doing FF3 "oh hey orphans have them go save the world" shtick again. Please.
