Systems
The World Map
Speaking with people in places you visit or setting out by ship can unlock new areas to explore on the map.
Renown
Forging and Reforging Equipment
You can spend aurums and materials to forge and reforge equipment at the Pidona Workshop. You will be able to claim the pieces after emerging victorious in a set number of battles. Once equipment has been forged, it will become available for regular purchase from the workshop’s store.
The workshop can be expanded by locating its smiths scattered all over the world. Raising your renown will also unlock the ability to reforge the Matriarch’s sacred relics, strengthening them.
Equipment
Characters can equip up to two weapons simultaneously. More defensive gear equipped means higher Defense, but also means higher encumberment, which can affect a character’s Speed during battles. If you’re unsure what to equip, the Auto-Equip function will automatically set your characters up with the best available gear.
Forming Your Retinue
You can adjust your retinue (party) composition at any time from a pub or save point, choosing from any combination of characters you’ve recruited thus far on your journey.
Finding Mr. S
A familiar face returns! Mr. S, a lovable staple of the SaGa franchise, has been on his own adventure in the world of RS3. He can be found in all sorts of places such as in towns or even in dungeons.
Battles
New Formations
Not only will this title feature many formations not present in the original version, it will also introduce completely new formations to the SaGa franchise! Here’s a sneak peek at some of the new formations.
Triple Incisors
Rampaging Mammoth
Character Growth
Characters have weapon type and spell school levels, which can be raised by using them in battle to earn Technique Points (TP). Weapon type and spell school levels will affect Physical Attack and Magic Attack respectively.
Mastering Requirements
Techs, evasions, and spells can be mastered, allowing them to be instantly taught to other characters. Using the tech or spell frequently will allow the character to master them.
Abilities
Each character has their own unique ability which can be unlocked by participating in battles. There are many different abilities, such as basic attribute boosts and HP recovery per turn. Some are unlocked through story progression instead of battle victories.
