A handful of glitches I came across while playing Chained Echoes.
1. Walk on water. Simply enter this battle while using the sky armors in hover mode, lose, select retry, and choose to retry on foot. You can now fight the battle normally. If you win, you will be walking on the water. You'll be restricted to a very short diagonal line.
2. If you flee instead of winning, you will walk on water in a different location. You're still restricted to a diagonal line, but it's a little longer.
3. If you forge a rank 18 crystal, the rank doesn't display. The crystal's name should be Water Resistance XVIII, but instead it displays as Water Resistance. It has the same effect as any crystal of rank 10 or greater.
4. If you enter a battle while a textbox is on the screen, you are sometimes unable to choose an action in the battle. You can bring up the unit info by pressing X, but you can't do anything else other than flee. Something similar can happen if you interact with a crystal source while a textbox is onscreen; you won't be able to do anything except exit the menu.
5. The rest of the clips show some strange glitches that can occur when a Cobwebtadie uses its self-destruct move, Explosion. In this clip, the explosion damages me a few times even while I'm selecting my move--unintentionally replicating a mechanic of Chrono Trigger. Even though Robb dies, he is still able to perform an action. Because he has HP Drain equipped, he recovers some HP when he attacks, bringing his health above 0. However, he is still dead.
6. As in the last clip, I attack with Robb after he dies, which causes him to recover health due to HP Drain. Afterward, the last standing party member is killed and I get a Game Over, even though Robb still has health.
7. By using an Angel Wing while dead, Sienna can revive herself.
8. Even though Explosion is a self-destruct move, a Cobwebtadie was able to use it three times in a row because my party counter-attacked twice.
