Previously, the party finished exploring the Lunar Subterrane and collecting the sealed weapons. Now, they will begin leveling up for the superbosses. They will set up their augments for good stat growth. Obviously, they won't have as many augments as they could have had in a third playthrough, but hopefully they can manage it.
Lunar Surface:
The party resumes on the Lunar Surface outside the Crystal Palace. They go through the Lunar Tunnel - East and the Lunar Tunnel - West to get back to the Lunar Whale. They fly the Lunar Whale to the Hummingway Abode in the south.
Hummingway Abode (time 2:13):
At the Hummingway Abode, the party fills up on Sirens. They will be using these to summon monsters quickly. They also sell a spare pair of Dragon Gloves.
Then, they head back out to the Lunar Surface.
Lunar Surface (time 2:39):
The party boards the Lunar Whale. They fly back to the Lunar Tunnel - West. After disembarking, they go through the Lunar Tunnel - West and the Lunar Tunnel - East. Too bad they can't open up some kind of spaceship dock in the Crystal Palace.
Crystal Palace (time 4:03):
At the Crystal Palace, the party learns the augments that they will be using. Kain learns Inferno and Tsunami. Rosa learns Inferno. Cecil learns Limit Break. Rydia learns Whirlwind, Curse, and Last Stand. Edge learns Whirlwind, Darkness, and Piercing Magic.
Then, on 2F, the party takes the teleporter to the Lunar Subterrane.
Lunar Subterrane (time 5:52):
The party takes a long walk down through the Lunar Subterrane. They go directly down floors B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, and B7.
On B8, the party sets up their augments for leveling beyond Level 70. Kain equips Attack, Inferno, Tsunami, and Phoenix. He sets up Defend as his auto-battle command, but later, he will change it to Focus. Rosa equips Dualcast, Inferno, Omnicasting, and Aim. She keeps Pray for auto-battle. Cecil equips ???'s Love, Limit Break, Twincast, and Draw Attacks. He keeps Brace for auto-battle. Rydia equips Bardsong, Whirlwind, Curse, and Last Stand, keeping Bless for auto-battle. Edge equips Ninjutsu, Whirlwind, Piercing Magic, and Darkness, keeping Cry for auto-battle.
Then, the party uses Sirens to summon Red Dragons. They are brutal, but at least putting Berserk on them makes them manageable if the party has a dedicated tank. Edge, too, gets Berserked to be the main damage-dealer, since his evasion is high. Later on, Edge begins using Darkness to increase his damage output. Having Rydia on Life's Anthem is quite helpful.
Red Dragons occasionally drop Dragon Gloves, which sell well enough to fund the party's Siren habit.
Soon after the party starts, Cecil reaches Level 70.
Kain reaches Level 69.
Rosa reaches Level 70. Rydia reaches Level 70. Edge reaches Level 69.
Kain reaches Level 70. Cecil reaches Level 71. At Level 71, he begins realizing the stat boosts from his equipped commands. ???'s Love and Limit Break each offer boosts to all core stats. With them combined, it is easy to max out Cecil's stats.
Edge reaches Level 70.
Rosa reaches Level 71. Rydia reaches Level 71.
Kain reaches Level 71. Cecil reaches Level 72.
Edge reaches Level 71.
The party goes up to the save room on floor B1. There, they rest and save.
Next time, the party will continue leveling on Red Dragons in the Lunar Subterrane.
Thanks for watching!
