Bribing a high-level Senator with a "Must Have!" item causes a greater effect than bribing a low-level Senator with a "Must Have!" item. .----------------------------------------------------. | Note: This effect is temporary. Only the Senator | | directly bribed will retain any change in attitude | | for later bills. All other Senators will revert | | back to the attitude they had before the original | | Senator was bribed. | '----------------------------------------------------' If anyone knows anymore about this subject, please email me. The rarity number of the item is what affects how much a Senator will like an item. See the "Bribing (In-Depth)" section for details. Even though the Collector specialist will raise rarity, it will not change how the Senator reacts toward the item even if the Collector pushes the item's rarity into a different reaction range. Tengan, however, is quite different. He doesn't want any particular rarity, but rather wants a particular item type. He'll announce exactly what once you enter the Assembly. If you give it to him, his status will instantly change to Love<3. White Dragons are the self-imposed, incorruptible, Holy Paladins of the Netherworld so they won't accept bribes. If you even try to bribe one, a dialog box will appear and tell you the Senator is too angry to accept bribes. When this happens, the approval of the Senator decreases. That's not all there is to bribing. There are several special items designed to be used in the Dark assembly. Sometimes more than one is required to have the intended effect. Here they are. Hard Liquor Makes a Senator drunk Medicine Makes a drunk Senator sober Chloroform Puts a Senator to sleep Bomb Wakes up a Senator Angel Cake Everyone is "Interested" in it Gold Bar Everyone "Must Have!" it Drunk Senators do not always react the right way according to the item you give them and they seem to lean a little more toward "Nay." Senators that are asleep are unable to accept bribes and will not vote. Whether or not a Senator likes Hard Liquor, Medicine, or Chloroform is given by the rarity number; it works the same way as other items. Senators never like Bombs getting thrown at them (who would?), so that will always result in a negative effect--one that won't take effect until the next proposal. Bombs will also damage the Senator and any surrounding Senators. Gold Bars and Angel Cakes are not necessary if you know what you're doing in regards to bribing, but they're easy to use and don't require much thinking. Unfortunately, they're quite rare. All of these items can be bought at the Bribery Specialists shop in Item World Mystery Rooms, or obtained from the Bonus List of various stages. ------------------- THE VOTE ------------------- Once you have bribed all the Senators and whatnot, you've got to let them vote on the bill. Press the Triangle Button (/_\) to bring up the menu that lets you either: "Begin Vote" or "Return to HQ." Returning to HQ cancels the vote and lets the Senators go on with their lives. Beginning the vote allows all the Senators to cast their votes (or continue sleeping). Each one will either vote "Aye" or "Nay" (or continue sleeping). At the bottom of the screen will be a gauge with Ayes on the left side and Nays on the right. There'll be a number above each one that represents the total approval/disapproval of the bill. The amount each Senator contributes to this gauge is given by their "Influence" or "Voice." The Higher the Senate, the higher the voice. Because of this, four Wood Golem Party Senators can override seven White Dragon Party Senators. ------------------- AFTER THE VOTE ------------------- If the bill gets passed, fine, if not, you've got two options: "Give up" or "Persuade by Force." Selecting to Persuade by Force will begin a battle with the Dark Assembly. Luckily, a Base Panel will appear so you can deploy any of your characters to deal with this mess. "Aye" Senators will be neutral and not do anything while "Nay" Senators will be hostile. The bill cannot be passed until all hostile Senators are defeated. Senators that were asleep will now remain that way for several rounds. Senators that were drunk will have the Amnesia status effect, disabling them from using Specials; it will last the remainder of the battle. You can just outright kill them, but that will result in them liking you less on later proposals. Passing by "Fusion" is better. To do this, locate a neutral Senator that is of high level. Then throw enemy Senators onto it or throw it onto the enemies. As long as the enemies are lower level than it, they will be "killed" and the neutral Senator will remain--still neutral. Note: The levels of both Senators will be combined. The reason this is better than just killing the Senators is because although they will be on your record as "killed," their attitudes will not have changed. ------------------- CELL PHONES ------------------- There are many different cell phones available in this game. Six of them in particular relate to the Dark Assembly; one for each Party. You use them outside of battle and have a conversation with that Party's Headquarters. For the next bill only, all members of that Party will have +20 affection points When you use them, they are gone forever, but you can always get another, or even have multiple at the same time. If you use more than one for the same Party before a single bill, it will not benefit you anymore than if you simply used one of that type. You can call more than one Party's Headquarters before a single bill and everyone you called will have boosted approval. ------------------- FELONIES ------------------- Other than bribing, the only way to increase approval is through Felonies. For every two (2) Displayed Felonies on the character proposing the bill, the Senators' attitudes will temporarily increase by 1 point. This can be also described by this formula: The amount each felony boosts the affection points of the Senators is given my this formula: Affection point boost == Trunc[F / 2] Trunc = Truncate function; remove decimal. F = Number of Displayed Felonies character proposing the bill. ------------------- OTHER INFO ------------------- When you select a character to address the Assembly, all the Senators that will attend each proposal and their attitudes are immediately set. Reselecting the character will result in the game selecting new Senators, along with their affection points also changing slightly due to a very small, temporary randomization modifier that ranges from -5 to +5 points. This will not drastically change the attitudes of the Senators or the fact that certain Senators like to appear more on certain bills. Bill modifiers are similar to the random modifier in that they change the affection points of the Senators attending the bill. They are, however, not random. Each bill has a fixed modifier that never changes. Using the random modifier, bill modifiers, and the base affection points of each Senator, the game calculates a percentage approval for each proposal. It basically lets you know how well you're going to do on the bill, although it won't be exact. Legendary Senators will not take part in this percentage, allowing them to even more proficiently sway the vote. They will, in fact, replace a Senator that was scheduled to be there, one that affected the percentage. Before entering each proposal, the percentage approval is located in the upper-right corner of the screen. You can describe the Felony boost in this percentage by saying that every two Displayed Felonies increases overall approval by approximately 5/12 of a percent (0.41667%), for a total of 245/12 of a percent (20.41667%) with 98+ Displayed Felonies. =============================================================================== 2.00 BRIBING (IN-DEPTH) =============================================================================== Bribing is the most important tool you have when it comes to passing bills. That's part of why I gave it its own section. Here I'll go further into detail how bribing works. As you already know, the rarity number of the item is what affects how much a Senator will like the item. In my game, I slowly compiled a huge list of how each Senator reacted to each rarity. It took FOREVER. Unfortunately, those values only work for my game because they are randomized at the very start of the game. With all the data I have collected, I figured out quite a bit about how rarity works. Each Senator has a rarity value he most desires. From here on out, I'll call it [D]. [D] is the very center of the "Must Have!" range and is used to determine how the Senator will react to all other rarity values. What is this "Must Have!" range? Well, each Senator has multiple ranges that will each result in different reactions on the Senator's part. To help you understand, here are a few examples of Senators in my game. .=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=. | Rarity: 0- 2 Does Not Want | | Rarity: 3- 26 Not Very Interested | | Rarity: 27- 50 Slightly Interested | |-------------------------------------| | Rarity: 51- 82 Interested | | Rarity: 83- 97 Must Have! | | Rarity: 98-129 Interested | |-------------------------------------| | Rarity: 130-153 Slightly Interested | | Rarity: 154-177 Not Very Interested | | Rarity: 178-255 Does Not Want | '=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=' .=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=. | Rarity: 0- 25 Interested | | Rarity: 26- 40 Must Have! | | Rarity: 41- 72 Interested | |-------------------------------------| | Rarity: 73- 96 Slightly Interested | | Rarity: 97-120 Not Very Interested | | Rarity: 121-201 Does Not Want | |-------------------------------------| | Rarity: 202-225 Not Very Interested | | Rarity: 226-249 Slightly Interested | | Rarity: 250-255 Interested | '=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=' .=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=. | Rarity: 0- 12 Must Have! | | Rarity: 13- 44 Interested | | Rarity: 45- 68 Slightly Interested | |-------------------------------------| | Rarity: 69- 92 Not Very Interested | | Rarity: 93-173 Does Not Want | | Rarity: 174-197 Not Very Interested | |-------------------------------------| | Rarity: 198-221 Slightly Interested | | Rarity: 222-253 Interested | | Rarity: 254-255 Must Have! | '=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=' You'll notice how each reaction covers multiple rarity values. Those are reaction ranges. Different reaction ranges cover different amounts of rarity values. For example, the "Must Have!" range always covers 15 rarity values while the "Does Not Want" range always covers 81 rarity values. The other three reactions are split into two ranges. The total number of rarity values contained within each reaction are as follows. Does Not Want 81 Not Very Interested 48 (24 per range) Slightly Interested 48 (24 per range) Interested 64 (32 per range) Must Have! 15 If you add all those up, you'll get a total of 256 for all 256 rarity values possible (0-255). As stated previously, all reactions are determined using [D]. Here's how. Rarity: [D+88] to [D+168] Does Not Want <-------. Rarity: [D+64] to [D+87] Not Very Interested \ Rarity: [D+40] to [D+63] Slightly Interested \ Rarity: [D+8] to [D+39] Interested \ Rarity: [D-7] to [D+7] Must Have! EQUAL Rarity: [D-39] to [D-8] Interested / Rarity: [D-63] to [D-40] Slightly Interested / Rarity: [D-87] to [D-64] Not Very Interested / Rarity: [D-168] to [D-88] Does Not Want <-------' If one of your rarity values goes below 0 or over 255, add or subtract 256, respectively. Both "Does Not Want" ranges are identical; I just made two so it looks nicer. This map might help you. Slightly Interested [D+40] to [D+63] // \\ // \\ Interested Not Very Interested [D+8] to [D+39] [D+64] to [D+87] // \\ // \\ Must Have! Does Not Want [D-7] to [D+7] [D+88] to [D+168] \\ // \\ // Interested Not Very Interested [D-39] to [D-8] [D-87] to [D-64] \\ // \\ // Slightly Interested [D-63] to [D-40] As I said in the Basics section, the exact affection point change from the bribe can vary throughout the same reaction range. Here's a list of how the affection point change differs throughout the rarity spectrum. Rarity: [D-128] to [D-128] -8 | Rarity: [D-127] to [D-120] -7 | Rarity: [D-119] to [D-112] -6 | Does Not Want Rarity: [D-111] to [D-104] -5 | Does Not Want Rarity: [D-103] to [D-96] -4 | Rarity: [D-95] to [D-88] -3 _|_ Rarity: [D-87] to [D-80] -2 | Rarity: [D-79] to [D-72] -1 | Not Very Interested Rarity: [D-71] to [D-64] +0 _|_ Rarity: [D-63] to [D-56] +1 | Rarity: [D-55] to [D-48] +2 | Slightly Interested Rarity: [D-47] to [D-40] +3 _|_ Rarity: [D-39] to [D-32] +4 | Rarity: [D-31] to [D-24] +5 | Interested Rarity: [D-23] to [D-16] +6 | Interested Rarity: [D-15] to [D-8] +7 _|_ Rarity: [D-7] to [D] +8 | Must Have!

Notice that each time the affection point change differs is every eight (8) rarity values. This handy formula was pointed out by ragnarokesper on the Disgaea: Hour of Darkness board at GameFAQs: Affection point change == 8 - Trunc[|D - R| / 8] Trunc = Truncate function; remove Decimal. |.....| = Absolute Value; always Positive. If it's negative, make it positive. D = The rarity value the Senator most desires; in the middle of the "Must Have!" range. R = Rarity of item. Now, obviously, none of that means anything if you can't find [D]. To do this, you'll have to find the top or bottom border of the "Must Have!" range and add/subtract seven (7) to/from it. You can't find one of the borders unless you have a rarity value inside of the "Must Have!" range that is one (1) less/more than a rarity value outside the "Must Have!" range. You'll likely have to find one rarity value that's in the "Must Have!" range and then try some nearby rarities before you know where there borders are. I made the following, complicated procedure to isolate [D]. Note: You don't quite have to do it like this. 1. Fill your item bag with anything you want. 2. Enter a proposal. It does not matter which one. Attended bills cost 0 Mana. 3. a. Select a Senator. b. Look at the items he "Must Have!". Remember them. 4. Return to HQ. 5. Find the average of the rarity of those items. If it's a decimal, round it to the nearest integer. We'll call it [A]. If you have more than one rarity value and one of them is below 14 while another is above 241, add 256 to all of the values that are below 14 before calculating the average. 6. a. Put an item in your Item Bag for every rarity value that is between [A-8] and [A+8]. If the rarity value goes under 0 or over 255, add or subtract 256, respectively. b. Organize your Item Bag with those items in order of their rarity, from lowest to highest or highest to lowest (it does not matter which). Rarity 255 and rarity 0 go next to each other, in case you were wondering. 7. Enter a proposal with that same Senator from before. You might have to try a few times. 8. a. Select that Senator and scroll down your list of items. The reaction will change from "Must Have!" to "Interested" once or twice. If it's twice, ignore one of the changes. Remember which two items it changed at. You have, in fact, already found the top or bottom border of the "Must Have!" range, but if you don't know which it is for some reason, do this: b. Return to HQ. c. Of those two items, record the rarity of the one that was in the "Must Have!" range as [B], and record the rarity of the one that was in the "Interested" range as [C]. If either [B] or [C] is 255 while the other is 0, add 256 to the smaller of the two to remake the variable. [D] == [B] - [(C - B + 1) * 7] + [7] If [D] goes below 0 or over 255, add or subtract 256, respectively. That's just a simple algebraic equation that will give you [D]. It isn't necessary if you already know where one of the borders are. Now, most of you reading this probably don't care about it at all, but I figured it out, so I shared it. You can't say you don't understand Bribing anymore. Much thanks to HenryEX for figuring out the exact affection point changes throughout each reaction range. [D] will still be the same even if you start a New Game + or if you save your game onto another file, but if you restart the game all over again, it will be randomized. It's my assumption that [D] can end up being anywhere from 0 to 255, depending on the Senator, so there are in reality 256 different possible rarity disposition spectrums for any particular Senator. The only thing you have to do is find out which one each Senator uses for your game... if you care. ------------------- STRATEGIES ------------------- When it comes to passing bills, the best thing to do is bribery (along with having Felonies) because in the long run, killing senators takes way too long if you want to pass lots of bills. To make bill-passing easy, do the following steps. 1. Empty your Item Bag. 2. Go to a shop. The accessory shop is cheapest, but has the shortest list. 3. Fill your Item Bag with cheap junk. 4. a. Enter "Raise Military Funds." b. Bribe Venus, Morpheus and Ares. c. Bribe the Wood Golems. d. Bribe the Mothmen with anything that's left. e. Bribe the Petit Orcs with anything that's left. 5. Return to HQ. 6. Repeat steps 2-5 until those Senators love<3 you. 7. Make Adell a Senator. 8. a. Attend to the "I want more voice" bill proposed by Hotshot. b. Bribe the Senators in order from step 4b to 4e. c. Let the bill be passed. 9. Repeat step 8 with the bill proposed by Flaps. 10. Repeat step 8 with the bill proposed by Orc Head. Now you'll have doubled the Influence of the Wood Golems, Mothmen and Petit Orcs as well as made them love<3 you. The process is really quite simple so I shouldn't need to go any more into detail. For those attended bills, you could bring at least one of every item type in case Tengan appears, but that isn't really necessary because you can always leave and come back, not losing any Mana. As far as I know, the temporary antimodifier Senators get when you bribe the opposite Party is completely nullified when you leave the proposal, so you should be able to have all Parties (except the White Dragon Party) love you, but I haven't tested it much. If this is true, you can also bribe the Baciels and Ghosts, as well as boost their voice, but they can be more difficult to bribe (mainly the Baciels). Don't forget to get felonies. They boost approval by a ton. =============================================================================== 3.00 CHARACTER CREATION =============================================================================== The Dark Assembly allows you to create new characters. First, you must speak to the Dark Secretary. Then you must select a character who will be expending his/her own Mana to create the new ally. The creating character will become the "Master" and the created character will become the "Student." .----------------------------------------------------------------------------. | MASTER/STUDENT RELATIONSHIP | | | | The Master/Student relationship is by far one of the most important | | features resulting from use of the Dark Assembly. | | | | To begin with, the Master gains 10% of the natural stats of his/her | | Student. If the Master has multiple Students, then for any particular | | stat, whichever Student has a higher value is the character that supplies | | the Master with the bonus. For example, if the Master has two students, | | one having a higher INT stat and the other having a higher ATK stat, the | | Master will receive 10% of the INT of the first Student while also gaining | | 10% of the ATK of the second Student. The bonus is calculated every time | | the Student gains a level. If the Master reincarnates, the bonus will be | | lost until the Student gains another level. Because of this, if you are | | trying to benefit from this relationship, you should level the Master | | first, then the Student. The complete Master/Student stat boost is capped | | at 28,000 points per stat (112,000 for HP), very minor compared to other | | boosts available. | | | | Whenever the Master stands next to the Student during battle, the Master | | gains access to all the spells of the student. If he/she uses one enough, | | it will reach level one and will become "learned" by the Master, so that | | he/she is then able to use it whenever he/she wants. | | | | On top of all that, a Master and a Student also have a 20% higher chance | | of successfully performing a team attack. | '----------------------------------------------------------------------------' The next step is to select the character to be created from a list of classes available. There is a total of 17 generic Humanoid classes and 17 generic Monster classes in the entire game, each with 6 "tiers." Early on, you'll only have a few classes and only the first tier unlocked. Higher tiers are generally much stronger than lower tiers, having higher Basic Stats, Aptitudes, and Weapon Proficiencies. Select the character you think is best suited for the environment in which you'll be placing it. The next step involves choosing the "Capability" of your character. Characters created with a higher Capability will have a higher "Ability Bonus" which translates to "bonus points" which are spent on stats before the character is created. The six levels of Capability are: Good-for-nothing, Incompetent, Average, Skilled, Distinguished, and Genius. Here are the amounts of base bonus points you get for each Capability. Good-for-nothing -5 Incompetent 1 Average 3 Skilled 6 Distinguished 8 Genius 10 Characters of higher Capability require substantially more Mana to create, but it definitely pays off later on. Creating Distinguished or Genius characters requires the approval of the Dark Assembly, so if your standing isn't too great with them, don't try this because it'll be rejected and all your Mana will be wasted. Select the Capability that won't cost you too much Mana, but also won't result in an "accident" character that you end up deleting because it's too weak to hold its own. Next, you must choose the name of your character. It can be a maximum length of fifteen symbols long, or as big as the box. Use the D-Pad or Analog Stick to navigate across the makeshift keyboard. Use the X Button to select a symbol for the currently highlighted part of the box at the top of the screen. If no part of the box is highlighted, the symbol will appear after the last one there. Enter whatever name you want. So you can get an idea of what characters you can use in your name, here's what the screen looks like. __ .--------------------. __ |L1| | | |R1| '--------------------' .------------------------------------------------. |A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O | |P Q R S T U V W X Y Z | |a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o | |p q r s t u v w x y z | |0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 + - ! ? % | |& <3 . [1] / ~ ( ) < > | |------------------------------------------------| |Done (O):Cancel [SELECT]RANDOM /_\:Delete | '------------------------------------------------' .-----------------------------------------------------. | Enter name | '-----------------------------------------------------' The "[1]" is a bullet; I can't display it with plain ASCII. Now you must distribute the bonus points to the Basic Stats of your character. The current amount of bonus points left to allocate is located in the upper-right corner of the screen. If you chose Good-for-nothing, you'll have negative bonus points which means you'll have to subtract from the stats of your character. If you chose a higher Capability, you get to add bonus points to your stats so that they will be initially larger at level one. Finally, this screen displays everything about your_character if you were to create it right now. Pressing the Square Button (|_|) will cause the view to change slightly. If you press the Circle Button (O) and the promptly the X Button again, your character's stats and elemental affinities will be slightly different than they were before. This is due to randomization. You can do it as many times as you want for different results. The stats will follow this formula. [Trunc(Basic * 0.94)] ~ [Trunc(Basic * 1.06)] == Level 1 Stat Trunc = Truncate function; remove decimal. Basic = Stat you went with from the Bonus Point allocation screen. The tilde (~) represents that the Level 1 Stat can be any integer between both parts of the equation separated by that symbol. You can use this randomization to your advantage to get higher stats, or particular elemental affinities. Note: One Affinity will always be 50%, one will be 0%, and one will be -50%. You can only use randomization to change which one has which value. After all that, pressing the X Button will finish the creation of your character. Then you can do whatever you like with it. Just something you should know: The maximum number of characters you can have is 128. You can have 116 generic characters and 12 story characters. The slots for the story characters are reserved if you don't have them yet, so there's no way to keep them out of your party short of not advancing through the story. =============================================================================== 4.00 CHARACTER REICARNATION =============================================================================== First off, reincarnation is different than creating a new character, this is where you re-make one you already have. You'll start at level one, but with benefits that will be discussed later in this section. To reincarnate, first select the character to address the Dark Assembly. Then select the "Reincarnation" proposal. It initially costs 100 Mana, but more will be added on depending on the Capability of reincarnation. You'll be now be taken to the the screen you saw before when you tried to create a new character. Now you must select the class/tier you would like to become. You can choose any generic class you've unlocked. Note: You'll keep your Felonies. After that, you will be taken to the screen where you must choose the Capability of the character. The Capability no longer only affects initial bonus points. Now, if you choose a higher Capability you will get higher "Yellow Bar." Yellow Bar is based off your natural stats immediately before reincarnation and is added onto your Basic Stats; it's completely different from bonus points. Depending on the Capability of Reincarnation, there's a maximum amount of Yellow Bar you can have, as shown below. Good-for-nothing 15 Incompetent 20 Average 25 Skilled 30 Distinguished 35 Genius 40 A Yellow Bar value of 40 points per stat requires at least 280,000 stat points for each one. Here's a table that shows the exact stat required to reach a given value of Yellow Bar if you reincarnate as Genius. | YB | STAT | | YB | STAT | | YB | STAT | | YB | STAT | |====|=========| |====|=========| |====|=========| |====|=========| | 1 | 40 | | 11 | 5000 | | 21 | 25,000 | | 31 | 100,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 2 | 90 | | 12 | 6000 | | 22 | 30,000 | | 32 | 120,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 3 | 150 | | 13 | 7000 | | 23 | 35,000 | | 33 | 140,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 4 | 250 | | 14 | 8000 | | 24 | 40,000 | | 34 | 160,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 5 | 400 | | 15 | 10,000 | | 25 | 45,000 | | 35 | 180,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 6 | 700 | | 16 | 12,000 | | 26 | 50,000 | | 36 | 200,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 7 | 1200 | | 17 | 14,000 | | 27 | 60,000 | | 37 | 220,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 8 | 2000 | | 18 | 16,000 | | 28 | 70,000 | | 38 | 240,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 9 | 3000 | | 19 | 18,000 | | 29 | 80,000 | | 39 | 260,000 | |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| |----|---------| | 10 | 4000 | | 20 | 20,000 | | 30 | 90,000 | | 40 | 280,000 | Note: HP is actually different in that it requires a higher stat, but I'm not sure of the exact amount for each value of Yellow Bar. On the same screen you'll see a Reincarnation counter and a Total LV counter. Reincarnation Counter: This represents the total number of times you've previously reincarnated. It does not affect anything, but serves just to let you know how many times you've reincarnated. Total LV Counter: This represents the total number of levels you've thrown away on previous reincarnations. It is extremely important. For all of your stored levels thrown into the Total LV counter, you get a specific amount of extra bonus points to allocate to your stats. The maximum bonus points you can get from this method is 200. Here's a table. | BP | LEVEL | | BP | LEVEL | | BP | LEVEL | | BP | LEVEL | |=====|=========| |=====|=========| |=====|=========| |=====|=========| | 1 | 1 | | 51 | 12,000 | | 101 | 37,000 | | 151 |

11,500 | | 100 | 36,500 | | 150 | 86,000 | | 200 | 186,000 | One thing more you should know about Capability is that each one has a maximum amount it'll let you to have in a stat, as shown below. Good-for-nothing 243 Incompetent 248 Average 253 Skilled 255 Distinguished 255 Genius 255 Note: None of the capabilities require approval for reincarnation. In addition to the 200 max bonus points from stored levels and the 10 bonus points for reincarnating as Genius, you also get 10 more bonus points for reincarnating into the same class/tier 10 times in a row. They will not show up in the Capability selection screen, but you'll see them on the bonus point allocation screen. If you switch to a different class/tier, you'll still keep the extra bonus points. Aside from normal reincarnation, if you're a generic, there's also a special kind of reincarnation you can do by selecting the proposal: "Reincarnate into a Prinny". This will result in the character being turned into a Prinny and their Displayed Felonies being removed. Another effect is their ally kills will be set to zero (0). Once a Prinny, you can propose the "End Prinny Reincarnation" proposal to turn back into a generic; you'll be able to reincarnate into any class you want, not just the one you were before reincarnating into a Prinny. Doing an ordinary reincarnation into a Prinny won't be the same as doing the real thing. Story characters have a different proposal: "Reincarnate to Atone for Sins." This will basically do the same thing as a normal reincarnation, but their Displayed Felonies will be removed and their ally kills set to zero (0). They don't have an equivalent of "End Prinny Reincarnation," but the "Reincarnate to Atone for Sins" proposal costs twice as much Mana as the one for generics. Also, when you reincarnate, you retain a certain percentage of Weapon and Skill Mastery that you had before Reincarnation. That percentage will be listed as "Inheritance." Here are the values and their corresponding Capabilities. Genius 95% Distinguished 85% Skilled 75% Average 65% Incompetent 55% Good-for-nothing 45% -------------------------------- WEAPON/SKILL EXP REGAIN FORMULAS -------------------------------- When you're trying to max stored levels, you'll lose a certain amount of your weapon and skill mastery because you're reincarnating so much. It will take a certain amount of hits to regain what you lost, so I made these formulas below. When you get the result from one of the formulas, round that value up to the nearest integer. This formula calculates how many times you will have to use a Skill to raise it back up to what it was before reincarnation. [25 * L * (L+1) + F] * [C] / [E] / [1 + (M / 100)] L = Level of Skill Mastery before reincarnation (available in game) F = Leftover Skill EXP before reincarnation (available in game) C = Capability of Reincarnation: - Genius = 0.05 - Distinguished = 0.15 - Skilled = 0.25 - Average = 0.35 - Incompetent = 0.45 - Good-for-nothing = 0.55 E = Skill EXP gain amount: - Class-specific Skill = 20 - Magic Spell = 10 (Skulls naturally get +5; +1 more per 2 Lover levels) - Weapon Skill = Varies (It's in my Character Guide at GameFAQs, Neoseeker and some other sites) M = Level of Mentor Specialist These formulas calculate how many times you will have to use a Weapon to raise it back up to what it was before reincarnation. There are two because there are two Weapon EXP formulas, each one based off a different WM level range. WM Level <= 20: [50 * L * (L+1) + F] * [C] / [E * (1 + (A / 100)) + Trunc(E * 0.2)] WM Level >= 20: [21000 + 2000 * (L-20) + F] * [C] / [E * (1 + (A / 100)) + Trunc(E * 0.2)] L = Level of Weapon Mastery before reincarnation (available in game) F = Leftover Weapon EXP before reincarnation. This one's a bit complicated, so based on how full the bar appears, use a percentage of the value acquired through these formulas: - WM Level <= 20: [50 * (L+1) * (L+2)] - [50 * L * (L+1)] - WM Level >= 20: Always = 2000 C = Capability: - Genius = 0.05 - Distinguished = 0.15 - Skilled = 0.25 - Average = 0.35 - Incompetent = 0.45 - Good-for-nothing = 0.55 E = Weapon EXP gain amount; the same as for Weapon Skills. A = Level of Armsmaster Specialist Trunc = Truncate function; remove decimal. Note: Class-specific Skills and Magic Spells do not increase Weapon Mastery. =============================================================================== 5.00 ATTEND A DARK ASSEMBLY =============================================================================== Adell has the option of becoming a Senator himself. To do this, you must pass the "I want to become a senator" bill. Adell will now have an option at the bottom of his list called: "Attend a Dark Assembly." When you select this, there will be a shorter list of proposals that Adell can listen to. He will be one Senator among many. The only initially noticeable change is that someone else is proposing the bill and Adell is a Senator. Strangely enough, the other Senators seem nearly oblivious to the actual requester and will vote the same way as if YOU were proposing the bill. An exception to this is that Felonies on the requester WILL have an effect on the attitudes of the other Senators and Felonies on Adell will NOT matter. The only way the requester can have Felonies is if it's one of the "Be the main character" proposals. If it's one of the "I want more voice" proposals, any Senator of the same Party as the requester will get a temporary +50 affection point modifier. The way Adell votes does not affect any other Senators. You can also bribe the other Senators just like on other proposals. Adell himself can, in fact, accept bribes as well. To do this, select the bill requester to open up his/her Item Bag. There will be a total of 10 items inside; they can be normal, rare, or even legendary. The first time you enter the bill, the items can be fairly good; about a maximum rank of 31. On every subsequent visit (if you didn't pass it) the requester will only have junk that is about rank 1-7 or so. To take an item, simply select it with the X Button. Just as you might not give a Senator your Perfect ATK Makai Wars, the requester can refuse to give you a particular item. If this happens, you'll have to select it more times before they yield. This isn't necessarily a good idea, though, because every bribe you attempt to take subtracts 10 points from your Influence for this bill's vote. Your Influence starts at 30 points and can go up by 30 per "Stronger Voice" proposal for a maximum of 120 points. Once you're done with all that stuff, you can start the vote with "Aye" or "Nay," or return to HQ. Because these bills don't cost Mana, using them to bribe Senators and then returning to HQ can be a great bribing tactic, as all you will need is the 200 Mana to become a Senator. Any bribes you received will still be yours, so don't fear repeatedly doing this for items; it's a good source of DoE Cell Phones for the "Rescue the Earth Defender" bills. Adell's vote will be cast first, the others following successively. If the bill is passed, then so be it, if it is not passed, you can: "Give up" or "Persuade by Force." Don't worry about giving up because losing Mana is no longer an incentive to create a slaughterhouse. Persuading by Force is the same as for non-attended bills, except they all go after you and ignore the requester. If the requester dies, he/she will appear at the end of the fight and say the usual. Some attended proposals have a negative effect and are there to be amusing. Others can greatly benefit you. An example would be the "I want more voice" proposals because they can minimize the effect of less controllable senators. Note: These bills cannot be reversed except by starting a new cycle. =============================================================================== 6.00 ITEM ASSEMBLY =============================================================================== The Item Assembly is a special sector of the Dark Assembly found in Item World that is designed to modify the item in which you currently reside. You can access it by talking to the Chicken in Innocent Town which is sometimes available every ten floors of an item. The Chicken does not always appear and has been known to be quite evasive at times, so don't fret if you have trouble locating him. You should reach Innocent Town about 50% of the time and the Chicken appears about half the times you go there, so it's a total of about a one-fourth (1/4) chance to be able to access the Item Assembly. Speaking with the Chicken is basically the same as speaking with the other two Dark Secretaries, but you now have different proposals available. They all pertain to the item in which you are located, so some proposals will not appear if you are in the wrong type of item. You can only propose one bill each time you enter Innocent Town. There's also a limit to how many times you can see the Chicken. Legendary items have the limit of three (3) Chicken encounters, Rare items have the limit of two (2) Chicken encounters, and Normal items have the limit of only one (1) Chicken encounter. Once you have encountered the Chicken the maximum number of times in an item, you can never reach Innocent Town in that item again. One thing you will notice when you try to pass an Item Bill is that there are Geo Symbols and Geo Panels on the map. If you happen to get into a fight with the Senators, the Geo Effects may help or hinder you, so take this into account if you ever Persuade by Force. =============================================================================== 7.00 BILL LIST =============================================================================== The "Modifier" refers to the temporary difference in affection points all Senators attending the bill will have. =================== 7.10 GENERAL BILLS =================== These are General Bills that are pretty much always available. Some of the are not really "Bills", though, but you get the idea. .----- | Proposal: Senator List | Result: Lists all senators in the Dark Assembly. | Mana Cost: - | Modifier: - | Restriction: - |-- | Proposal: Create New Character | Result: Creates New Character. | Mana Cost: Varies | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: - |-- | Proposal: Delete a Character | Result: Deletes a character. | Mana Cost: - | Modifier: - | Restriction: - |-- | Proposal: Change Name | Result: Changes name. | Mana Cost: - | Modifier: - | Restriction: - |-- | Proposal: Reincarnation | Result: Reincarnate to level 1. | Mana Cost: 100 | Modifier: - | Restriction: - |-- | Proposal: Reincarnate to Atone for Sins | Result: Reincarnate to level 1 with all Felonies removed. | Mana Cost: 400 | Modifier: - | Restriction: Story Character must have at least 1 Displayed Felony. |-- | Proposal: Reincarnate into a Prinny | Result: Reincarnate to a level 1 Prinny with all Felonies removed. | Mana Cost: 200 | Modifier: - | Restriction: Generic Character must have at least 1 Displayed Felony. |-- | Proposal: End Prinny Reincarnation | Result: Reincarnate into any level 1 character. | Mana Cost: 400 | Modifier: - | Restriction: Passed "Reincarnate into a Prinny" proposal. |-- | Proposal: More Expensive Stuff | Result: Increases Product Rank in Rosenqueen shops. | Mana Cost: 10 + (10 * [Current Product Rank]) | Modifier: +20 | Restriction: Product rank must be lower than the Customer Rank. |-- | Proposal: Cheaper Stuff | Result: Lowers Product Rank of merchandise in Rosenqueen shops. | Mana Cost: 10 | Modifier: +50 | Restriction: Can't pass if the Product Rank is 0. |-- | Proposal: Stronger Enemies | Result: Each time you pass the Proposal, enemy levels will go up. | Mana Cost: 100 + [50 * (# of times you've previously passed this bill)] | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: You can pass this Proposal a maximum number of twenty times. |-- | Proposal: Weaker Enemies | Result: Cancels one Stronger Enemy Bill. | Mana Cost: 10 | Modifier: +50 | Restriction: Can't pass if no "Stronger Enemies" proposal has been passed. |-- | Proposal: Eyewear Inventory | Result: Able to buy Glasses at Rosenqueen Armor shops. | Mana Cost: 30 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Can only be passed once. |-- | Proposal: Belt Inventory | Result: Able to buy Belts at Rosenqueen Armor shops. | Mana Cost: 30 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Can only be passed once. |-- | Proposal: Shoe Inventory | Result: Able to buy Shoes at Rosenqueen Armor shops. | Mana Cost: 30 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Can only be passed once. |-- | Proposal: Weights Inventory | Result: Able to buy Weights at Rosenqueen Armor shops. | Mana Cost: 50 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Can only be passed once. |-- | Proposal: Improve Counterattacks | Result: Character gains +1 to Counter until their next Reincarnation. | Mana Cost: 300 | Modifier: -10 | Restriction: Can only be passed once per reincarnation. |-- | Proposal: Improve Movement | Result: Character gains +1 MV until their next Reincarnation. | Mana Cost: 500 | Modifier: -20 | Restriction: Can only be passed once per reincarnation. |-- | Proposal: Triple EXP | Result: First enemy defeated in next battle yields triple experience. | Mana Cost: 50 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Can only be passed once per battle. |-- | Proposal: Bonus Gauge Boost | Result: Begin next battle with bonus guage already filled up a little. | Mana Cost: 50 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Can only be passed once per battle. |-- | Proposal: Prinny Day | Result: Can only use Prinnies in next battle.

You can only pass this bill three | times. '----- Initially, you can buy items of rank 1-3, and each More Expensive Stuff bill increases the minimum rank by 1 while also increases the maximum rank by 3. The exception is Product Rank (PR) 12, where you can only buy items of rank 13-38 rather than rank 13-39. Here's a table. PR | Item Rank ====|========== 0 | 1- 3 1 | 2- 6 2 | 3- 9 3 | 4-12 4 | 5-15 5 | 6-18 6 | 7-21 7 | 8-24 8 | 9-27 9 | 10-30 10 | 11-33 11 | 12-36 12 | 13-38 You can use these formulas, but remember that the maximum Item Rank (IR) caps at 38. Minimum IR == PR + 1 Maximum IR == (PR + 1) * 3 The Stronger Enemy Bill (SEB) formulas are as follows (SEB = # of SEBs passed): Holt Village: Level = [Base] + [Base * SEB * 0.2] + [SEB * 2] Land of Carnage: Level = [Base] * [1 + (SEB * 0.2) + 20] + [(SEB * 20) + 200] Eyewear increases INT and HIT. The INT increase is approximately two-fifths of the HIT increase. Belts increase ATK and decrease SPD. The decrease is approximately two-fifths of the increase. Shoes increase MV, JM, and SPD. There are three types and levels of weights. They increase one stat and decrease two others by the same amount. They also put your character's minimum HP to 25%, rounded down. If your character dies while they have one equipped, they will be revived at the end of battle with 1 HP and the weight is destroyed. The main purpose of weights is to put your characters into critical status so you can benefit from their special ability. You can unequip it once they are in critical. If a character is healed while they have a weight equipped, their HP will not exceed 25%. ================= 7.20 CLASS BILLS ================= Here's a list of all the bills that unlock humanoid classes. You must meet the requirements for each bill to become available. .----- | Proposal: Make a Tough Guy | Result: First tier of Heavy Knight class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 10 | Modifier: +5 | Restriction: Requires level 3 Spear Mastery. |-- | Proposal: Make a Bad Guy | Result: First tier of Sinner class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 10 | Modifier: +5 | Restriction: Character in your party has at least 1 Felony (this happens | as part of the story between Stages 3-3 and 3-4). |-- | Proposal: Make a Trainer | Result: First tier of Beastmaster class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 10 | Modifier: +5 | Restriction: Capture a monster via your Base Panel (throw it inside). |-- | Proposal: Make a Strange Old Man | Result: First tier of Geomancer class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 10 | Modifier: +5 | Restriction: Perform a 500+ Geo Combo. |-- | Proposal: Make a Busty Beauty | Result: First tier of Rune Knight class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 10 | Modifier: +5 | Restriction: Requires level 3 Sword and Staff Mastery. |-- | Proposal: Make a Ninja | Result: First tier of Ninja class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 20 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Requires level 5 Fist & Sword Mastery. |-- | Proposal: Make a Kunoichi | Result: First tier of Kunoichi class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 20 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Requires level 5 Fist & Staff Mastery. |-- | Proposal: Make a sunset kind of guy | Result: First tier of Gunner class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 20 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Requires level 5 Gun Mastery. |-- | Proposal: Make an Eastern Swordsman | Result: First tier of Samurai class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 20 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Requires level 5 Sword Mastery. |-- | Proposal: Make a Lovely Hunter | Result: First tier of Archer class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 20 | Modifier: +0 | Restriction: Requires level 5 Bow Mastery. |-- | Proposal: Make the Ultimate Warrior | Result: First tier of Majin class is unlocked. | Mana Cost: 500 | Modifier: -40 | Restriction: Beat the final boss and start a new cycle. '----- As stated, to unlock the Beastmaster class you have capture a monster. All you have to do is simply chuck a monster in your Base Panel. A fight will take place inside, and if you defeat the monster, it is captured. You can only capture monsters that you are able to create. You can't create the first tier of a class until you've killed one of it. To capture a higher tier, you have to be able to create it. For example, if you're trying to capture a fourth tier monster but you only have the third tier unlocked, the monster will kill everyone in your Base Panel and remain on the map with at least 1 HP. Where it says you need two different weapons at a certain Mastery, you don't need to have both on the same character to unlock the bill. For example, if you have Adell with level 5 Fist Mastery and a male fighter with level 5 Sword Mastery, the "Make a Ninja" bill will become available. ==================== 7.30 ATTENDED BILLS ==================== Here's a list of the bills that Adell can attend under the "Attend A Dark Assembly" option in the main bill list.

'------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ================ 7.40 ITEM BILLS ================ Just below is the selection of proposals available in the Item Assembly. The "Senator List" and "I want to change the item name" proposals are not included because they don't count as proposals and are free. You can change the item name as many times as you want as long as you can access the Item Assembly. Not all bills are available for certain items, so here I included the item type on which each bill can be passed. .===========================.======.==========.=====================. | PROPOSAL | MANA | MODIFIER | ITEM TYPE | |===========================|======|==========|=====================| | Slightly More HP | 20 | -5 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Slightly More SP | 20 | -5 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Slightly More ATK | 20 | -5 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Slightly More DEF | 20 | -5 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Slightly More INT | 20 | -5 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Slightly More RES | 20 | -5 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Slightly More HIT | 20 | -5 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Slightly More SPD | 20 | -5 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | More HP | 200 | -20 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | More SP | 200 | -20 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | More ATK | 200 | -20 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | More DEF | 200 | -20 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | More INT | 200 | -20 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | More RES | 200 | -20 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | More HIT | 200 | -20 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | More SPD | 200 | -20 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Increase Jump Ability | 500 | -30 | Weapon, Armor | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Increase Movement Ability | 500 | -30 | Weapon, Armor | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Increase Attack Range | 500 | -30 | Weapon | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Increase Counter Attacks | 500 | -30 | Weapon | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Increase Critical Rate | 500 | -30 | Weapon | |---------------------------|------|----------|---------------------| | Increase Population Level | 500 | -30 | Weapon, Armor, Misc | '==========================='======'=========='=====================' The JM bill increases JM by 10. The MV, Range, Counter and POP level bills all increase each by one (1). I think the Critical rate bill increases critical chance by 10%, but I'm not sure. Normal items naturally have a POP limit of 4, Rares have 5, and Legendaries have 6. The maximum POP limit is 8 (it has to be increased to reach this). Each Item King or Item God killed increases the current POP limit by 1. Double killing an Item King or Item God will increase the POP limit by 2. ========================= 7.50 MAP-UNLOCKING BILLS ========================= This section lists all the bills that, when passed, will unlock extra stages.

'------------------------------------------------------------------------------ =============================================================================== 8.00 SENATOR LIST =============================================================================== Below is a list of all 64 Senators. The level of each Senator as well as small details about each Party are included. ------------------ LEGENDARY SENATORS ------------------ Venus - "Charms" Senators in front, behind, and on both sides of her. If Adell gets charmed by her, he'll receive the title: "Archer Guards." Morpheus - Puts to sleep multiple senators on that vote in opposition to him. Ares - Punches off the whole row on one side of him. The Senators go flying off into space and their votes are negated. If Adell gets punched off, he'll fall back down (not be blown into the sky), but his vote won't count. Tengan - Will ask for an item at the beginning of the Assembly. If he receives it, he'll instantly Love<3 you, otherwise his status will be Loathe. He'll just ask for generic item types, and nothing specific, so it's not too difficult. He resets after the vote, so you basically have to give him the right item every time he appears. It's a real killer if you don't since his vote is worth 450 points. My recommendation is to carry one of every item type every time you enter a proposal you're not sure you can get passed in case he appears. That way, he can help you win the vote. Venus - Level 1000 - 150 Influence points Morpheus - Level 1000 - 150 Influence points Ares - Level 1000 - 150 Influence points Tengan - Level 1000 - 450 Influence points ------------------ BACIEL PARTY ------------------ Upper Senate Base Influence: 100 points Baciel Party Senators are always Drunk. Medicine will make them sober, but you may need to use more than one. While drunk, their votes and reactions toward items will be somewhat random, so making them think clearly can be a good idea. The vote won't be as affected by their drunkenness, so a drunk senator that loves you will still probably vote in favor. Sen. BoozeHound - Level 700 Sen. Hammurd - Level 500 Sen. Tankt - Level 300 Sen. Blitzed - Level 250 Sen. Ploud - Level 200 Sen. Sloshi - Level 155 Sen. Jugged - Level 120 Sen. Tosdid - Level 90 Sen. Tippsee - Level 65 Sen. Winou - Level 45 ------------------ WOOD GOLEM PARTY ------------------ Upper Senate Base Influence: 100 points The Wood Golem Party has no strange status effects that mess with voting and they have a lot of Influence, so I recommend bribing these guys before anyone else and then doubling their Influence with the Attended bill proposed by Sen. Hotshot. Sen. Ecovillain - Level 700 Sen. Superstar - Level 500 Sen. Bigwig - Level 300 Sen. Hollywood - Level 250 Sen. Washedup - Level 200 Sen. Bloodlust - Level 155 Sen. Treehugger - Level 120 Sen. Smartass - Level 90 Sen. Nisei - Level 65 Sen. Hotshot - Level 45 ------------------ WHITE DRAGON PARTY ------------------ Mid Senate Base Influence: 50 points The White Dragon Party does not accept bribes, so the only way to raise your approval with them is to get Felonies. Under no circumstances should you double their Influence. Sen. Enforcer - Level 280 Sen. Exemplar - Level 225 Sen. Tribunal - Level 190 Sen. Veritas - Level 155 Sen. Judicious - Level 120 Sen. Begrudged - Level 90 Sen. Righteous - Level 65 Sen. Lawful - Level 45 Sen. Modesty - Level 30 Sen. Decency - Level 20 ------------------ MOTHMAN PARTY ------------------ Mid Senate Base Influence: 50 points Just like the Wood Golem Party the Mothman Party has no strange status effects, but they only have half the Influence of the Wood Golems. Bribe these guys after you bribe the Wood Golems. Then you should double their Influence via the attended bill proposed by Sen. Flaps. Despite the fact that the game manual says monsters will have increased approval with Mothman Senators, this isn't true, at least for the NTSC version. Sen. Galacticus - Level 280 Sen. Rapture - Level 225 Sen. Rem - Level 190 Sen. Shutin - Level 155 Sen. Gimme - Level 120 Sen. Entomology - Level 90 Sen. Heckles - Level 65 Sen. Belfry - Level 45 Sen. Descartes - Level 30 Sen. Flaps - Level 20 ------------------ PETIT ORC PARTY ------------------ Lower Senate Base Influence: 10 points There's nothing wrong with the Petit Orc Party, but their Influence is relatively low. Luckily, they are obsessed with humanoid girls, so having a female propose the bill increases their affection points by +30. Go ahead and bribe these guys after the Wood Golems and Mothmen, then double their Influence through Sen. Orc Head's proposal. Don't count on these fellas to win the vote for you, just maybe help a little. Sen. Orc Butt - Level 180 Sen. Orc #9 - Level 140 Sen. Orc #8 - Level 115 Sen. Orc #7 - Level 90 Sen. Orc #6 - Level 65 Sen. Orc #5 - Level 45 Sen. Orc #4 - Level 30 Sen. Orc #3 - Level 20 Sen. Orc #2 - Level 12 Sen. Orc Head - Level 5 ------------------ GHOST PARTY ------------------ Lower Senate Base Influence: 10 points Ghost Party Senators will be asleep about half the time. As such, you won't be able to bribe them without waking them up. The only way to wake them up is with a bomb. Bombs damage nearby Senators and make everyone hit by them start out hating you on the next bill, so you'll have to rebribe them to make them happy. I would just say to ignore these guys; their Influence is low and they're too much trouble. Sen. Comatose - Level 180 Sen. Tepid, Jr. - Level 140 Sen. Tepid, Sr. - Level 115 Sen. Clodhop - Level 90 Sen. Siesta - Level 65 Sen. Bat Man - Level 45 Sen. Laggard - Level 30 Sen. Anemone - Level 20 Sen. Brunch - Level 12 Sen. Catnap - Level 5 =============================================================================== 9.00 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS =============================================================================== Q: What does "SEB" stand for? A: Stronger Enemy Bill. Q: It says I have to capture a monster to unlock the Beastmaster class. How do I do that? A: Throw it in your Base Panel. I explained this earlier in the guide. Q: Is the effect of bribing a Senator permanent, or does it reset after the bill? A: Yes, it's permanent. It will not reset, even if you start a New Game +. Q: Why would anyone pass the "Reincarnate into a Prinny" bill? A: The process of getting the felony stamp to 99 and then removing it with this bill is something many people do to help keep track of Felonies. Q: I'm trying to get the good ending, but my Adell has killed too many of my allies. Should I pass the "Reincarnate to Atone for Sins" bill? A: Yes, that would get rid of the Felonies and ally kills on Adell so you could qualify for the good ending. Q: Do you lose Weapon/Skill Mastery when you reincarnate into a Prinny? A: Yes, you lose it just like you do on a normal reincarnation. Turning back into a non-Prinny will not give it back to you. Q: Since I lose Weapon/Skill Mastery because I'm using the "Reincarnate into a Prinny" bill to keep track of my Felonies, is there a different way I can keep track of Felonies? A: Yes. You can use this calculator. http://www.geocities.com/darthnemesisx/disgaea/d2_felony_calc.html =============================================================================== 10.00 VERSION HISTORY =============================================================================== Version 1.00 - Guide first submitted.
