DarkT1me, I have a question about "God Eater II": did you open the Pandora's Box in the center, in cage 81.70 (the one next to the sign)? I tried, but when I saw everything it gives, I reloaded from the last save. I don't know if this can affect skill overflow in the future, but I decided not to open this box, and only fly there. (in the screenshot - only one of the surprises, and there are many of them)

I think this is a joke from the author; he's blocking the early acquisition of the Grail. And the specific set of units in the box hints that we don't need it =)

I decided to use a Chinese forum to complete the Xiedu map. The author posted his save, but even playing with it, the battles play out differently. What could be the difference, due to the hd+ plugin sod_sp?
But what bothers me even more is that with the author's save, resources accumulate differently; they somehow get more, even though I did everything 1:1.
