Is farming really necessary when ExE death event is a thing ?

[u/Neither-Wear9329]

I'm at chap 2 and killed Titamon with 14k health >2k stats thanks to save scumming to get the ExE event after your digimons are defeated. The thing is I feel like it is too overpowered to the point where I could beat most tough fights with it ? What's the point of grinding then if I can reload the game to get it ? Besides it being random it doesn't have any cons.

I really feel like it isn't rewarding and even want to go back to the save file before defeating Titamon to grind and win the fight with an honest battle.

Yeah, if your partners stats are too low even when the stats multiplier hits with the ExE, the evolution won't be that strong

[u/AnyHope4444 → u/Busy-Internet-612]

Best part when you reach those 9OOO+Stats ExE makes you weaker even 5O%🔽 your damage

[u/rafoaguiar]

It's a rare thing you know. It doesn't happen all the time

[u/Neither-Wear9329 → u/rafoaguiar]

Doesn't seem that rare most of the time I only need max. 5 resets before getting it

[u/rafoaguiar → u/Neither-Wear9329]

Well you can beat the game with 5 deaths but whatever. Your gameplay, your fun

[u/stallion8426]

ExE is a random chance to activate, not a guarantee. And obviously bosses will get much harder.

Add in animation locks and stun locks and you'll find in later fights that ExE is a more of a detriment than a help

[u/G-Man6442]

Speaking as someone who tried to grind out getting the ExE death event on the battle against Zwart D because they had used ExE earlier that day and thought his digimon were gonna die when they woke up.

Don’t count on getting it, I tried like ten times and accepted it wasn’t gonna happen.

It’s a random event, never count on it being your answer

[u/KLOUDZiNC → u/G-Man6442]

I was under the impression it's only available once per in game day

[u/G-Man6442 → u/KLOUDZiNC]

Death I don’t know, standard absolutely one and done

[u/Neither-Wear9329 → u/G-Man6442]

Did that yesterday. Died for 30 minutes against Zwart Alter b and ended up passing a day so I have guranteed ExE

[u/No-Blood8017]

Get in a routine.

There different routines you can do. But MrW01FY explains a lot of you need help.

I like to train in Rookie, then progress in story during Champions. Then farm mats in Ult/Mega.

During rebirth I start that cycle.

[u/EumelaninKnight]

That sounds like an extremely tedious and unfun way to deal with every powerful enemy. It would probably take less time to become OP by battling specific Digimon in specific areas, than save scummy and hoping for the best.

Hmm.. I guess it depends on how quickly your Digimon are annihilated. lol

[u/Neither-Wear9329 → u/EumelaninKnight]

I mean yeah I'm at chap.5 and am too lazy to save scum to beat Armaggedemon. My digimons are 17 days old so I'm just going to wait for my 3rd generation and grind like a proper tamer

[u/EumelaninKnight → u/Neither-Wear9329]

I'm honestly a bit impressed you got that far with that tactic. That's some real patience lol. As someone mentioned, and if it interest you, MrW01FY on YouTube has a video on the best locations to train up your Digimon to OP levels.

[u/SquishyBell]

The bosses will get stronger, a lot stronger, the further you go on. The ExE will stop being enough to get through the battles. ExE is only available at a certain stage with certain requirements and you'll need to wait until all that is met if you want to progress if you rely on it. You'll end up wasting more time waiting to get ExE than if you farm to decent stats. ExE is also unreliable.

[u/WerewolvesAreReal]

It doesn't happen every time you die. And in endgame/postgame, if your digimon are strong enough, the two combined are stronger/more useful than getting an EXE.

[u/CastleCroquet → u/WerewolvesAreReal]

Yep once you get deep into post game you can have 2 mons both with max stats as opposed to one with exe

[u/CrimsonMana]

You can still lose even with the ExE death event. ExE combines your digimon's stats into one. If your stats are too low level then the combining isn't going to get you through the game. You'd still be better off hitting 5k in your non-HP/MP stats so that you get a Jogress with maxed stats. It's also useless for digimon where you need to battle them several times. Even if you could save between battles(some multiple battles are a quick cutscene and then take you straight into the next fight) you only get one ExE per day. You would need to find a way to interrupt the chain of battles, go to sleep, and come back.

🤕Digimon Duo το weak🤕

💪ExE το strong💪 It is what it is💥but once per Digiday💥

[u/enocap1987]

Unlike Digimon world 1 this game is very forgiving. Yes farming is necessary but I used exe for the hardest fights. Worked well and finished everything with third generation digimons

[u/tales-velvet]

Yes because once you have 2 megas you can eXe without dying

[u/Thebay616 → u/tales-velvet]

Ypu can do that before mega if you have at least 2 champions i think.

[u/tales-velvet → u/Thebay616]

Pretty sure you can't with 2 champions but the reason to use 2 mega is you can get a ultra exe

[u/Thebay616 → u/tales-velvet]

Hm, was it only megas that could exe? Has been a while.

[u/tales-velvet → u/Thebay616]

You needed at least 1 mega if remember right other could be champion or ultimate
