Snek me up inside
Lowdown on the restrictions of this challenge:
- EXP gain is only permitted in boss fights and forced encounters, and must be minimised by only having 1 character active at the end of each battle.
- Autolevelling must also be minimised as much as possible. Argilla and Roland take all XP before they leave the party to reduce the impact of this later on, and Argilla's level must not exceed 12 so it doesn't affect Sera's starting level.
- This is a cycle 2 playthrough on hard difficulty with no data transfer bonuses.
- I will be fighting all bosses rather than doing a true minimum EXP run, cuz that's more fun. And let's face it, you're only here for Satan.
- The use of Data items to permanently raise stats is forbidden for as long as possible - at least until Shiva.
This one is really easy - almost scripted in the way it plays out, since you only have to live 1 full round of all 3 of their attacks. Attack the guy in the middle to push the fight into the 2nd phase straight away. Ganga's magic is the most dangerous by far, so we want to gun her down first. Put up an Earth Wall before their round, and now none of her magic can hit a weakness. Throwing an Impact Bomb distracts Cu Sith from using Void Earth, and you'll be able to kill her next round. Cu Sith will always cast Dekaja after she dies if he detects any buffs, so don't bother stacking too high. From here you can easily deal with them with Zanma, Agilao and the Maragion combo depending on what shield he puts up. From this point on, Roland takes most of the XP until he leaves the party.
