Laguz changes

Tutorial

Laguz units have several changes in Exalted that can influence how they're used.

Firstly, they now retain extra stats while unshifted, based on their type and weapon rank.

Their gauges work differently as well, varying per Laguz type and the specific unit itself.

The amount gained or lost per turn/battle can be viewed in the unit's class description.

Last of all are weapon bonuses. Each playable unit gains a unique effect or bonus when their weapon rank is raised.

Keep in mind that these bonuses are usually only active while shifted. Similarly, weapon experience is only granted while shifted.

Finally, each Laguz weapon is either Agile, Balance or Heavy, in relation to the weapon triangle.

This can be checked within their description. However, this does not apply to unshifted Laguz or specific units.

Helpful Tips carried here — 2

Volug

Helpful Tip

Upon reaching rank 1 (level 15), Volug will no longer have forced Halfshift. He'll also automatically rank up after part 1, even if his level is below 15.

Personals

Helpful Tip

Some units, such as Aran, Jill and Muarim, have personal skills that will improve each time they promote or gain a Laguz rank. Be sure to check personals in case this happens.

Dialogue
  1. Meg

    H-hello...

  2. Zihark

    Oh, hello there.

  3. Meg

    H-h-hello.

  4. Zihark

    Yes...hello. Now that we have that established, what can I do for you?

  5. Meg

    Um... Uh... I... I'm...Meg.

  6. Zihark

    Yes, I know. It's nice to meet you, Meg. That's a very nice name.

  7. Meg

    And, uh... I'm from Crimea.

  8. Zihark

    Yep, I'm one step ahead of you! Heard that too. You're far away from home now, aren't you? Quite an independent girl, eh?

  9. Meg

    Um, and, my village... It's called Ohma.

  10. Zihark

    Oh! You're from Ohma? Now that's something I did not know.

  11. Meg

    Yes.

  12. Zihark

    Then you must know Brom... Hold on a second... You look exactly like him. Are you two related?

  13. Meg

    We sure are! I'm his daughter. His...youngest daughter.

  14. Zihark

    Oh, I've heard stories! He loves to tell stories about his kids. He said that you could lift a full-grown cow!

    It's nice to meet the person I've heard so much about! How is Brom? Doing well?

  15. Meg

    Yes! Yes, he is! He works ALL the time. I do wish he would slow down...

  16. Zihark

    Ah, yes. Well, it's good to hear he's staying busy.

    Brom, huh? Wow, brings back memories... Well, if you're his daughter, I'll do whatever I can to help you.

    You said you were looking for somebody? Who is this person?

  17. Meg

    Well... He's my... He's my fiance.

  18. Zihark

    How could any guy leave a girl like you? What's this lucky guy's name? What's he like?

  19. Meg

    Well...he's standing right in front of me.

  20. Zihark

    I'm sorry, I'm sure I misheard you. Can you repeat that? ...Slowly?

  21. Meg

    My daddy told us years ago that he was going to marry one of us to a really nice friend of his, a mercenary named Zihark.

  22. Zihark

    Whoa, hey now...I don't, uh...

  23. Meg

    But my older sister got married last year, and so I came instead! Oh, it's so nice to finally meet my husband!

  24. Zihark

    Meg, look, this is kind of crazy...

  25. Meg

    Zihark... I'm sure I still have a lot to learn...

    But after meeting you, I just know we'll live happily ever after!

  26. Zihark

    Meg, I need you to listen very closely...

  27. Meg

    Oh, don't worry! I'll work hard every waking moment to become a good wife! Even during a fight!

    See you later, pookums!

  28. Zihark

    Meg, wait!

    Wow, she's downright pushy. She must get that from her old man.

    ...And did she just call me "pookums"?
