https://imgtc.com/i/iJnhdkc.gif
https://imgtc.com/i/j45EVGx.png

We already saw what happened in part 4 when the arrow pierces a stand user a 2nd time

but the real secret is when the arrow pierces the stand itself a 2nd time

Early on in the Part 5 anime they fixed a plot hole from the manga regarding this by having the arrow from Black Sabbath only graze Giorno's/GE's hand by him catching it instead of piercing it like it did in the manga and having nothing happen

Unless of course you subscribe to the theory that The arrow with the beetle design is specifically for creating new stands unlike the other 5 arrows which just have generic designs then just ignore all the above.

while talking to the Priest, have yall ever accidentally said no to saving your game

and then accidentally saying no to continuing your game after that?

just once

There's one level of Tension past 50%, but it's a low chance of actually allowing you to do it and reaching Super High Tension and allowing your character to go Super Saiyan. Once you pull it off the first time though it becomes easier and easier to do the more times you do it.

57 Staves > 23 Whips > 16 Sex Appeal > 52 Fisticuffs > 100 Staves

This will give Jessica a healthy mix between healing and offense early on and gives a little support with charm attack. Evasion plus which will be helpful in the postgame. Kazing is helpful as always.

Angelo

40 Swords > 12 Staves > 66 Swords > 13 Charisma > 65 Staves > 21 Fisticuffs (> 68 Fisticuffs)

This build boosts Angelos offensive abilities quickly which is very handy considering his terrible skill growth. Once his offence is taken care of staves and charisma offer several support spells. By the end of the game Angelo will not be attacking nearly as often so the evasion in fisticuffs provides him some nice defense. If you feed him all the skill seeds he should reach this by level 39 or 40. If you keep on leveling in the postgame Angelos skill growth shoots up and you can get defending champion for more defense by level 44. This build has metal slash, Angelos best way to hunt metal slimes.

88 Bows > 52 Charisma > 21 Fisticuffs > 81 Charisma (> 12 Staves)

This focuses more on Angelos mage tendencies than damage early on. Bows will let him worry a lot less about his current mp and will give him decent offense, just not quite as much or as quickly as swords. Charisma gives Angelo a variety of moves that are highly situational but still useful. The evasion in fisticuffs is useful for the postgame and so is charming look. The charisma part finishes at level 42. Bounce and drain magic have situational uses for the postgame bosses but arent crucial.

21 Fisticuffs > 65 Staves > 39 Charisma > 68 Fisticuffs (>81 Charisma)

This will raise Angelos evasion right off the bat and will give him a lot of support spells throughout the game. The downside to this is that Angelos offensive skills are going to be weaker. Bosses will be easier but random battles will be a bit slower. When you pick up decent staves or an icicle dirk you should use them as items (they dont have to be equipped) to boost your offense. You should grab a staff for caduceus for the Dark Ruins boss to conserve mp, but when he isnt using caduceus you should remove the staff. With all the seeds of skill this build will finish at level 40 with defending champion for defense. Charming look is received at level 45 if you keep leveling.

21 Fisticuffs > 65 Staves > 81 Charisma (> 68 fisticuffs)

This build is similar to the above build but goes for charming look before defending champion. This is to be used if you didnt take a build with a critical hit move for Hero or Yangus. This build priorities having a move that bypasses defenses and resistances over having a defensive ability.
---

https://imgtc.com/i/iJnhdkc.gif
https://imgtc.com/i/j45EVGx.png

Yangus

16 humanity > 6 axes > 42 fisticuffs > 19 axes > 32 humanity > 82 axes > 82 humanity

This build (and all builds I give) gives Yangus heal right away, which is a big help in the early game. Yangus gets helm splitter early on for bosses and thin air will take out large encounters. Share magic is useful for a certain boss where mp is an issue sometimes. Executioner lets you slime hunt and kill that mean postgame boss while humanities lend support skills.

16 humanity > 6 axes > 42 fisticuffs > 22 scythes > 32 humanity > 80 scythes > 82 humanity

This build is like the one above except it goes scythes instead of deep into axes. Helm splitter is included at 6 axes because its useful even with a crappy axe and no attack boost. Scythe damage is a bit stronger than axes and includes a small chance to steal. If Hero goes spears this build is fine but otherwise the lack of a critical hit move will cause some issues on a certain nasty postgame boss. Also the lack of executioner will make power leveling more difficult if you want to do that, although I dont think power leveling is needed if you play the game well.

16 humanity > 6 axes > 42 fisticuffs > 80 scythes > 66 axes (> 82 axes)

This build also finishes at level 41. This build has all the offensive goodies and lets you steal but lacks some support abilities in humanity. Later in the game when you have both good axe and scythe skills you wont have to worry about the finances of having two weapons because there are good free weapons for Yangus later on. If you level a few extra levels youll pick up another attack bonus in axes.

16 humanity > 6 axes > 70 scythes > 32 humanity > 80 Scythes > 66 axes > 42 humanity > 82 axes

This build finishes at level 41. It sacrifices all enemy damage for strength in both axes and scythes and some support in humanity. Use this if your other characters are doing a lot of thin air. If not then some of the points are probably better spent on thin air.

Jessica

57 Staves > 78 Sex Appeal > 100 Staves > 23 Whips > 100 Sex Appeal

This gets Caduceus (free healing) as early as possible. 78 in sex appeal gives her support for random battles. Kazing is snatched as early as possible for the postgame. The extra mp and especially the mp regeneration will also be useful then. Twin dragon lash at level 40 lets her do competitive damage versus the postgame bosses. You get hustle dance at level 43 which is late even for the postgame, especially since Jessica slightly lags in levels.

57 Staves > 78 Sex Appeal > 100 Staves > 100 Sex Appeal > 23 Whips

This is a variation of the above build. She gets hustle dance at level 40 instead of 43. If you dont plan on using your orichalcum (You only get 6) for another sages stone (free multiheal, reusable) you can give the free one to Yangus and let Jessica heal the party with hustle dance.

3 Staves > 68 Fisticuffs > 23 Whips > 100 Staves (> 100 fisticuffs)

Accelerate is always useful. This gives her thin air at level 22. She has enough mp to throw this constantly at almost every encounter. Evasion up will give her some more survivability. Twin dragon lash at level 26 is for killing bosses in the second half of the game. This build is more offensive and as a downside she lacks some of her support moves and cannot heal for a long time. You might want to compensate for this with mp friendly builds on other characters (Share magic, Seraphs arrow). She gets magic burst at level 43. Magic burst is gotten because theres not much else to do with her points after kazing; the postgame can be finished without this move.

4. Suggested Builds

Hero

42 fisticuffs > 52 swords > 90 courage

This build provides thin air for attacking all enemies, falcon slash for single targets, defending champion for defense, and courage will boost healing with Omniheal and mp cost. Metal slash is in there if you need to level. This build packages in pretty much everything except a critical hit move. In the early game use boomerangs even as you put points in fisticuffs; you can always unequip the boomerang when you need to use an ability.

42 fisticuffs > 59 spears > 90 courage > 9 swords

The main move this build has that the others dont is lightning thrust, a critical hit move that can be used for metal slime hunting and high defense enemies. Spears also have a variety of solid moves that give it more flexibility than swords. Dragon slash is tacked on for the postgame. Once again, use boomerangs early on while youre putting points in fisticuffs.

83 swords > 11 fisticuffs > 90 courage (> 100 courage > 100 sword)

This grabs miracle slash and an attack boost in swords instead of thin air to focus more on boss fights. You can grab gigagash at high levels if you have to have it by increasing swords and courage to 100. Do not use skill seeds for gigagash. It isnt that great of a move but it can be useful in a couple of situations (Gold Boss).

52 Boomerangs > 52 Swords > 11 Fisticuffs >90 Courage

This build gets super throw and some attack power for boomerangs instead of thin air. Super throw costs more mp than thin air but it doesnt have the resistance issues thin air can run into. The attack power boosts between boomerangs are low so keep in mind that you dont need the most current boomerang if your finances are hurting. This build will finish a couple of levels later than the earlier builds so dont use it if you tend to be low leveled.
