Ugh... 1½ hours... Yeah...

This match took place on March 15th, and in this match, I attempt to go for "The Memoirs of a Living Armor", by buying all of the permanent power ups. Well, it doesn't quite require all of them. Here's what you need:

-Sweet Tonic, found at an inn.
-Melonpan, found at a bakery.
-Magical Enchanted Sword, found at a blacksmith.
-Executioner, found at a blacksmith.
-Energizer, found at an alchemist.

You do not need Philosopher's Stone, surprisingly, even though it's also a permanent upgrade. You also do not need any of the special shoes, as they can be swapped out for other shoes, and thus are not technically permanent. And, you don't need Holy Water, Fluffy Shokupan, or Teleportation Potion, because those are just one-time use items.

I used Chicken so that I'd have real low prices, and played on Starship, in the hopes that I could Golden Egg myself and take advantage of the x2 Drop panels that way. This did sort of eventually pay off, as I gained a few hundred stars over the course of the match.

Unfortunately, most of the required items just did not want to show up. We saw Melonpan appear at least 4 different times, and that was the first one I got. Later on, the Magical Enchanted Sword appeared a couple times, and I did get that. However, I don't think I saw any of the other three appear at all.

Bluerock also kinda slowed things down with his Bells, nailing me at a critical point when I intended to check a shop on chapter 30. At least he was nice enough to intentionally avoid winning the game when he reached 20 fame.

Highlights do include me trying to nuke the upgraded version of Harbinger with Magical Inferno (at about 1:12:13), which didn't work. Then later, my Warrior Chicken managed to deal the finishing blow to Harbinger (at about 1:15:13), which was pretty sweet. Oh, and my fairy took 22 damage from a Bell at one point (at about 1:25:27). That was quite hilarious, and kind of the primary reason why I wanted to keep this recording, since I didn't screenshot it as it happened.

However, very deep into this match, on chapter 57, Steam must've hiccupped or something, and everyone got booted from the lobby on my end, while I had vanished on their end. And, they were not able to rejoin my timeline. I managed to win the match before any of the CPUs could (fortunately, one of them was too dumb to discard their Windy until after they hit a home, so that prevented what would've been their victory there).

It's really annoying that I put in all this time and effort only to get a mere 40% of the way there in this super-long match. The game really needs to offer those power ups more often, perhaps even making them guaranteed to show up if several chapters have passed without them appearing.

At least JethroGoro managed to get "How to Become a Max Level Bounty Hunter in the Starting Village" during all this, by slaying all six different wanted monsters in this match. It didn't help that Tequila was overnerfed in Bounty Hunt, though. Now, he only ever gets +1 ATK from his passive just one time per battle, instead of continuing to gain ATK based on damage received. I didn't think that was too OP, but apparently the devs did.

Participants in this match:
Player 1: JethroGoro, as Tequila.
Player 2: MARKVD100, as Nico.
Player 3: Me, as Chicken.
Player 4: Bluerock, as Nepgear (Saki).
Spectator: Remilia.
Map: Starship.
Lobby: CaesarSalad712x.

I wonder if I'd be better off trying to get this achievement in single-player now...
