Well Liquid Flame was... interesting with 3 knights and a berserker. Basically all out attacks, transitioning into everyone potioning the berserker and barely living to tell the tale. Woo. Also,

Yay? I guess?

This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

That's a very good thing. You won't get Ranger for a little while(another two bosses or so) but then you can grind levels in it for everyone so you can get X-Fight, which means your Knight is suddenly doing 2x damage.

This is an amazing idea. I think I'm going to have to start up a game for this. Sadly, no twitter account though, but will figure out a way to do it.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

Yeah, Ranger's really nice, but I still miss having magic. Ifrit and Byblos were difficult. Ifrit made me use all of the potions and phoenix downs I had, then I just had to retry Byblos until he decided not to use protect. Oh well, off to find Mid.

Edit: hehe Mid looks like he's dancing. PERSUASIVE DANCE, GO!

Edit2: I guess it is really nice not to worry about buying spells, finding the summons, learning blue magic, or playing all the pianos though.

You could make a twitter just for it. Theres some accounts I've seen/clicked on the fiesta page that have all of 6 tweets, all of them fiesta-related.

Yeah, learning blue magic is an absolute bitch if you don't know where to get it or you're not high enough levelled to survive the fight with whatever has it.

Case in point: Prototype Omega.  Has Blaster, but is really difficult and is quite hard to find.

Instead of having to worry about blue magic or buying it or getting summons, you get to worry about "Oh god please stop attacking berserker this boss with rape you if you don't."

Yeah, Liquid Flame would be "fun" for that. Fortunately, I didn't have that problem! Poor you. *patpat*

Forgot that Exdeath can cast level 3 flare.

My level 27 party of mages and a ranger did not fare well.

Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.
Especially if that fat pig Tony is at the desk.

Berserker + Sand Worm was a little interesting. Also, the fact that my only real way of healing is !Animal, which also has a chance of randomly attacking one of the holes in the Sand Worm battle didn't really help. It's kind of awesome to be a party of 1 Knight, 1 Berserker, and 2 Rangers and have little birds, squirrels, and BEES doing a significant amount to help. Bees against the mini dragons are actually surprisingly awesome.

Edit: hehe Knight + coral sword + 2-hand (1200 damage) + berserker lucky hit for 1200 damage killed the Cray Claw on the first turn. Poor guy didn't even get to attack.

Oh yeah, Liquid Flame. I eventually learned the trick was to just kill the goddamn Zerker.

Actually, I had Bartz as the Zerker. You would not BELIEVE how hard it is to kill a massively over leveled Berserker in full mithril gear.

I, uh. I had 3 knights and a berserker against liquid flame. In the end I just hit it until it died. I almost died in the process, but... yeah.

And...

Spoiler: Done! (click to show/hide)

A bit of Magic Lamp + Doublecasting Flare with Faris still made it a close fight but a successful one! (Krile was a blue mage)
