Exchord | Baten Kaitos 2 HD "No Instant KO" Speedrun Demo @Exchord | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
This run is bad and so is this category. I added chapters for you to easily skip failed tricks/battles and boring sections. If you haven't seen it yet, I suggest watching the unrestricted run first to be slightly less confused: youtube.com/watch?v=YueWIvwD18g (also check the video description)
As the category name implies, the setting "Instant KO" is not used in this run.
The run time is 48:47. If all "skip this part" sections were removed, it would be 28:21.
0:00 startup
0:14 (same as unrestricted)
1:07 deck edit 1
1:14 (same as unrestricted, except battles)
4:24 got a new sword in a flash
4:27 (same as unrestricted)
5:12 deck edit 2
5:20 (same as unrestricted)
5:30 (skip this part)
7:11 everyone's favorite boss
8:14 (same as unrestricted)
8:38 where are we going this time?
9:08 (same as unrestricted)
10:48 I got some quest magnus problems
11:02 (same as unrestricted)
11:27 a magnus that we may or may not need
11:31 (same as unrestricted)
12:19 the glitch, but we're a zombie now
12:30 (same as unrestricted)
14:18 we're not ready for Baelheit yet
15:10 (seriously, skip this part)
23:47 okay, I think now we're ready... just kidding
25:06 (skip this part)
30:37 the glitch, yet again
33:37 (skip this part)
36:18 first try! and totally no instant KO
37:17 (skip this part)
39:13 what this run needs now is some more bosses...
44:28 (same as unrestricted)
45:03 hall and window room
45:09 (same as unrestricted)
49:34 battle stats
8:45 Balmsand: Holding this quest magnus produces a 3% chance of all enemies falling asleep at the start of a battle (even those that are otherwise immune to sleep). Getting 6 of them bumps the chance up to 18%.
14:18 I trigger a cutscene that sets the story forward to the Tarazed chapter. This affects the trading and letter systems.
23:59 Bomb: When used in battle, there's a 40% chance the targeted enemy dies instantly, otherwise the user loses 90% of their HP (relative to max HP). The bomb cannot kill bosses.
24:14 Reading Gena's letter for the first time causes Sagi to go back in time and warp to Mintaka. Normally, you would read this letter after clearing the Lava Caves and just before heading to Diadem.
31:13 I minimize the game, clear the cached RAM on my computer ("Empty Standby List" in the tool "RAMMap"), and start a performance benchmark of the SSD on which the game is stored. Why? Because I need to slow down the map loading sequence so I can time an A press to warp to a specific area.
32:54 Going to the right and taking the elevator would have been faster, but I forgot about it.
33:10 This cutscene sets the story forward, once again.
49:34 I don't know why the "shortest battle" and "longest battle" stats are messed up. Maybe because of the battle-field glitch...
