What is this challenge?
-A low level run of Strange Journey, meaning EXP can only be gained from forced encounters. This also means any demons need to be discovered by fusion or in-game passwords (no password generator).
Why this and not Redux?
-Maybe later
Fucking hell, I was unprepared for this fight. I stumbled onto everyone's favorite scrub wrecker by accident when trying to get items for the Horkos fight and Frost Ace quest.
His opening Taunts mean I don't have to waste time on Tarukajas, but the defense debuffs means I had to get my defense up quickly so MC doesn't go kaput. Literally all but one of my demons died during the course of the fight, so I didn't waste time re-applying buffs to any of my demons. In fact, the only one I made pains to keep in the fight was Shiisa, since he had the Elec spells needed to score demon co-ops. Possibly the only thing that allowed me to survive all the way to the end was the collective damage dealt by him, to which Leanan Sidhe was able to steal the kill one turn away from death. This was an absolutely brutal fight, and one I'm quite proud to say I survived.
Sadly, since this does not qualify as a mandatory encounter, and I gained experience points because of this fight, I have to reload the save file :(.
