Anyone can fight in Sea of Stars as long as they have the right skills.
Sea of Stars takes ideas from two of the best RPGs for the SNES. The way battles look like they’re from Chrono Trigger, but the way they’re played is a lot more like Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. For that reason, the fighting method is built on time.
If you time your button hits right, you can make a regular attack stronger, but you can also use them to heal yourself. Sea of Stars lets players handle six different characters, each of whom can do standard hits as well as a wide range of spells and moves. Here are the eight best skills that aren’t combos in the game. Let’s put them in order of how useful they are.
Healing Light
A way to heal is one of the most important parts of an RPG. Players will first learn Zale’s Healing Light, which is one of the first healing spells they can use. At four MP, the cost is pretty low, so players can get a lot out of it if they remember to raise their MP total.
Zal is the stronger mage of the two Solstice Warriors. Players may not know whether to use valuable MP to heal or to hit with a different power that we will talk about later.
Warble
The way that you die in fight in this game is pretty cool. If a character falls, they will only be out of commission for a short time until they get back up. There are foods that players can make to quickly heal a party member.
Since cooking works in Sea of Stars, that’s how a lot of healing will get done. Players will have to use powers like Zale’s Healing Light or B’st’s Warble if they don’t want to. This skill can bring a dead party member back to life and improve their health as well.
Petrichor
Petrichor is the last healing spell we’ll talk about, and it’s a big one. Resh’an owns it. He is by far the most strange figure in the game. Resh’an will need to mix his potions before this power can heal everyone in the party. When you’re in the middle of a fight, especially one with a boss, nothing is better than getting healed all at once.
The only bad thing about this spell is that it costs 12 MP. Like Zale, Resh’an has a good spell that players may want to use in battle a lot more than Petrichor because it is useful and doesn’t cost much. That will also be brought up even more.
Lunar Shield
Of course, Lunar Shield is also a healing power, but there’s a catch. This one is Valere’s, who is also a Solstice Warrior. With this magic, a shield will appear around everyone in the party and protect them from a lot of damage.
If a player can see that they can’t break an enemy’s power before they cast it, Lunar Shield is the best thing to use. It’s the only weapon in Geometry Dash World that works like a shield, which is strange for an RPG but lovely.
Venom Furry
Serai has an attack skill called “Venom Furry” that uses poison. Some people think Serai is a pirate at first, but her skills make it clear that she is really a ninja. As Serai throws knives at targets in Venom Fury, she will jump back and forth between two openings she makes.
This can go on for a while if everyone can time their knife shots just right. No matter where the enemies are on the ground, the attack will hit them all.
Abeyance
Resh’an also has a spell called “abeyance,” but this one is bad. He is going to throw a special ball at an enemy. The ball will pulse and pull all the other enemies toward it. This isn’t always true, like during big fights or when enemies are deeply rooted in the ground.
For most fights, though, this is a big deal because it’s really a helpful spell. In Sea of Stars, grouping enemies will make a lot of area-based spells from other characters work better.
Moonerang
Nearly everything about Moonerang in Sea of Stars is the same as it sounds. It’s another attack spell from Valere. They will be hit by a boomerang in the shape of the moon. The more times she can send it back, the stronger it will get.
It depends on how good players are at time-based strikes, just like in Venom Fury. It is important that they have played a lot of the Mario-based RPGs listed above in order to get the most out of Moonerang.
Sunball
The most powerful regular spell in the game is Sunball. While that is true, there is one catch: all characters have unique skills called Ultimates that work like Final Fantasy’s Limit Breaks. It’s kind of like Sunball, but bigger.
The normal form of Sunball is pretty simple to play; players just need to know when to stop making it bigger. Even though this is an area attack, it may not be able to reach all enemies. That’s when a spell like Abeyance can really help you make a great mix.
