This title added to its predecessor,Paper Mario, and upped the antics.
Along with new partners, the game introduced a never-before-seen location in the Mario world.
There were more bosses, many of them with new challenges, and more party members.
Mario also made use of the paper elements by learning special abilities.
This sees him turn into everything from a boat to a plane to traverse dungeons.
You will start at level one with only a single partner and upgraded abilities.
The game has a level cap of 100, and you will need to grind for survive.
Along the way to dungeons, and while inside of them, you will encounter enemies.
Each time you level up, you choose which stat you want to raise.
You have health, flower power, and badge points.
Health is important, but you will need to balance the other two as well.
Flower Points allow you to use your special abilities that deal more damage.
It’s best to rotate through each option as you level to keep a fair balance.
This is due to the lack of equipable armor and weapons; badges are what give you special abilities.
As mentioned above, you have badge points or BP.
Each badge has a BP requirement that determines whether it can be equipped or not.
In addition, some badges won’t be useful during some fights.
For example, Ice Power makes Mario immune to damage from jumping on fire enemies.
On the other side, some badges will work all the time.
Peek-a-Boo allows you to see enemies' health.
Some badges can help you win crowd appeal or give you a chance of attacks missing.
You will always want to collect badges, whether it be finding them or buying them.
you could get an additional 10 slots for a total of 20 if you could get the Strange Sack.
To save even more space, you should invest in cooking.
There are many cooked items like the Choco Cake that restore both.
For the most part, the partner you get in each chapter will be a huge help.
Each one has their own special moves and with that perks.
For instance, Flurrie has the ability to blow enemies away, while Vivian can hide you in shadows.
It’s up to you to learn what each enemy does and how to best avoid it.
While some attacks are similar, others can be annoying, especially if it has status effects.
Knowing who you are going to be fighting and learning their moves is crucial.
Later in the game, many enemies will have a stronger version with a different coloring.
