beating lv33 trove imitec at abandoned tomb on hard - level 20, 3 person party - metaphor refantazio
2 brawlers, 1 mage, all level 20 and on hard mode against a level 33 boss xd (i believe it was level 33 last i checked, i forgot)
party setup down further below (this is just me yapping so scroll further if you want to see my setup) ▼
i struggled on this for wayyyy too long until i decided to look up a guide and did a team comp similar to what i read as it made me remember brawler op and i really should change strohl's achetype off of warrior 😂 i didn't want to because i had the dragon's judgement weapon from killing the fire dragon and that's why i didn't want to change his archetype ever, but realised i needed to cheese the boss because people recommended going when you unlock 4 party members or having merchant and me being silly, i forgot to do the merchant unlock quest before catacombs 😐. first time trying to play the game properly and by properly i meant, similar to how you'd play persona where you try to do social stats and mingle with your followers before doing your main deadline dungeon
---------------------- yap end - party info: ▼
party setup for anyone who wants to copy if they're struggling with the big mimic boss as well aka trove imitec, pre much aim to make one of your brawlers the tank and the other the dps and reset as much as you can be bothered to so you can not rage at the sleep like i do :)
follower ranks: all 1 because i dun goofed and i didn't realise it was better to do catacombs asap so u can build up ur follower ranks xd
