@CarolinaFan3515: I don't think it will be, it's just that they have to film this week's runs same day instead of ahead like before.

Well as I said before,I just think they are trying to catch up to the pre-e3 scheduling.This theory cemented by the fact the page for ep.84 is up as well.Most likely they will be back to normal posting hours by Friday or at the start of next week.

@ljgpliskin92:  Makes sense.  I was thinking that Monday was their recording day.  I guess its been a real hectic week for the GB crew.  I'm just glad they were able to fit these videos in if they are recording them day by day.

ok, wanted to make sure this guy is up as soon as possible. The High version still has a bit to upload, so if it's not working, stick with the medium or the low, for now.

thanks for your patience, and we should be back on schedule with tang, i love mondays, video reviews, quick looks, and of course, the endurance run by next week.

About the Downed enemies; They stay down till it's their turn again. Untill then they seem to take more damage and have a somewhat bigger chance of getting critted.
If you hit them again with their weakness they'll become dizzy and they lose 1 turn.

Unfortunately none of the characters absorb their primary attack elemtent like in P3. Was quite a bummer when I found that out, cos it's no longer possible to have a party set for a boss made up of 3 immunes and 1 fellar that you constantly have to ressurrect.

The next time you need to level up just hang off on the hardest floor you can get in.
It will be much faster and less boring. You will need to be on edge on any battle.

Once you get level 10 the NPC social link the persona will evolve and its persona immunities change as well.

On the subject of finding Fox in the dungeon: Both Fox and the party members you're not using will randomly appear in certain rooms in the dungeon. If you talk to them, they'll give you items, some of which are pretty good. Fox will give out Chest Keys and SP restoring items, so it's really useful to talk to him. Fox can also perform healing in the dungeon too, which is really nice for extending the amount of time you can spend in the dungeon. His healing is based on the SP you've used up, so a tip for saving money on SP restore is to switch your B team in before talking to Fox, and then he'll only charge you for restoring Charlie and the other guys you've left in your party.

Also, you started using physical skills a little more in this video, which is good. If you're going to keep Chie in the A team, you should definitely realize that she is heavily specialized in physical skills. If you want an actual Ice magic user, you should be using Teddie (he also works as a buffer and good backup healer to Yukiko). By this point, her magic starts to be pretty useless in comparison with the other characters in terms of damage, it's pretty much only good for knocking weak guys down. Unless there's something specifically weak to ice, you should be using her physical skills, which are extremely powerful. Once she learns Power Charge, that plus whatever your most powerful physical skill is will be one of your best ways to dish out lots of damage, especially if you throw a Matarukaja on the party first.

Those white eagle shadows, in retrospective, kinda look like the White FalconZord form the Power Rangers when they went ninja powered.

We have Starburst here and I've never heard of what Ryan offered you. That being said, I live in Ireland but we usually share most if not all of the products they sell in the UK.

You can hit a downed enemy with a physical attack and get a 50% chance to dizzy them.

I'm going to remind the guys again to drop Chie for Teddie if they insist on using ice magic.  They definitely don't want to be using Chie against the boss.

I'm confused as to why they were looking for a Persona with both lightning and fire spells. Can't they just cast lightning with one persona, then switch to another one and cast fire in the same turn?

According to the P4 guides, all Multi-target spell attacks like mazio have a 95% hit rate independent of their actual power, while the single target spells have a 98% hit rate. Most single target physicals have a 90% hit rate while multi target physicals have 80-85%.

I'm pretty sure this still goes up or down based upon Agility, possibly also magic power for spells (I have noticed Kanji missing WAY more then he should).

Also, any attack that doesn't exploit a weakness only has a 50% chance to dizzy enemies.

Yo, Black Frost, Ho! I can't wait, it's gonna be sweet. Plus, you guys got an avalanche of chest keys. Really, you got that one from the gold hand and after that the game was just throwing them at you.

Yosuke almost always goes first from now on.  His agility shoots up.  In fact he'll even act before enemies when they get the advantage later in the game.

I may not fully understand the combat system, but the fight with the totem pole and 4 arm things: You had fire on pyro jack (hit totem pole down), then switch to pixie and zap each arm with zio to get all 5 down.
