FORSPOKEN BEFORE YOU BUY ZIP
If you’re feeling naughty, make your way to a Refuge - where you find the easiest access to Spellcraft bookcases - and select a movement skill (upgrading Zip is a must). With movement abilities, you can increase your overall stamina recovery or even remove the stamina cost of a skill entirely, just by doing something like using it 20 times out in the field while the Spellcraft challenge is active. They’re often quite easy challenges to accomplish and offer huge benefits over the base skill.
FORSPOKEN BEFORE YOU BUY UPGRADE
If you’ve not unlocked it in-game yet, Spellcraft is a system which becomes available early on in Forspoken where you can complete a specific feat with a skill a given number of times to upgrade it permanently. One final thing on movement abilities is that you can upgrade them with Spellcraft just like any other skill. You can easily Spellcraft movement skills to make them a lot better To combat this, once you’ve unlocked Zip, if you press Square before you hit the ground Frey will throw out a magical rope and pull herself into the ground, breaking her fall, negating fall damage and letting you plough on, stride unbroken (there's also another skill that does a similar thing, but it's later in the game). On that note, you might have noticed that, if you’re not careful, you do a lot of falling in Forspoken. Until then, if you’re circling the bottom of somewhere wondering why you can find a way up, but can see these rocks around, you will have to come back later in your adventure. You will be able to use these to climb to higher places once you’ve defeated the first main story boss in Forspoken and unlocked the Zip ability. Most obviously, as you explore during the early game, you’ll see glowing golden/yellow rock jutting from the sides of cliffs and other rock faces. Once unlocked, launching yourself from these stones is one of the most fun things in Forspoken For example, there are plenty of stat-boosting Monuments and the like placed on tall, rocky spires that you can’t climb until much later in the game.
FORSPOKEN BEFORE YOU BUY FULL
This doesn’t just extend to full areas of the map, but points of interest in early areas too. It’s not very well communicated that rather than having uber-strong enemies you’re not supposed to fight until later patrolling an end-game area, progress is gated behind zones that are inaccessible until you have unlocked a particular movement ability. The landscape of Athia can be frustrating to navigate at first. You can use the golden/yellow rocks to climb inaccessible cliffs once you unlock Zip We have a full page highlighting some of the best spells in Forspoken, here. So in the early game, it’s better to focus on grabbing a wide range of support spells so Frey spends less time on cooldown and more time putting powerful effects out onto the battlefield.Ī number of the support spells are better than they first appear and are most of the time stronger than just plugging away with either Blast, Scatter or Shield Shot. Over the course of your time in Athia, you will easily collect enough Mana to unlock every skill and ability on offer in Forspoken. So while they are stronger, you also have to spend longer winding up your cast in most cases. While the three levels of the different magical shots are increasingly powerful, rather than a base buff to damage your upgrades give them more time to charge up. You’re using your basic damage-dealing ability more than any other, so it makes sense to upgrade it to be as powerful as possible as early as possible, right?įorspoken doesn’t quite work that way. In a lot of games, it makes sense to specialize.
Unlock different skills, then focus on upgrades so you’re on cooldown less often Once you get to grips with everything at your disposal in Forspoken, you will be freerunning up hill and down field in no time, but these are some things you should know from the beginning.
What works and doesn't work technically in Forspoken? While it doesn't necessarily reach the heights of the absolute best games out there, you can still have plenty of fun exploring the lore-filled landscape and engaging in explosive battles throughout Frey's extensive adventure. The hostile realm of Athia can be an unforgiving place, so here are a few handy Forspoken tips from my time with the game that will hopefully help you find your feet fast.Īs well as the more typical gameplay stuff, the main thing to bear in mind with Forspoken is to not let the incredibly rough opening exhaust your patience.
