Decided to finally clear the last difficulty for the Roguelike mode. This run of the Razor fight doesn't look too different from the other difficulties, what's not obvious is how quickly you just die if you let the enemies hit you. Enemy encounters will melt your party the way you can melt enemies on lower difficulties.

To stay ahead of the scaling enemies, you need a way to rapidly buff your party with Collection of Buffs. The easiest way to do this is with Mistletoe Berries (preferably the upgraded Ripe version). RIP if you can't get any to spawn, though some Catalysts help you ramp up your stats better than others (like Arcane Lantern).

I decided to go with the safest party. Kakania for tanking and Vila for free passive healing (on other difficulties she easily negates damage from fighting in certain areas) with Six as my main DPS.

I originally had Tennant but she dies so fast, even with her shield up, so I had to go with Isolde since she ramps up ridiculously fast if you manage to get one or two Amber Butterflies. She's also very helpful against the Boss version of Isolde in the Mines (that encounter actually annihilated the attempt before this one).

I just went with what I knew best. Six with an OP Rank 3 Attack (went with Leilani instead of ONiON this time), plus Aid Baby Blue (who has a convenient Ult that can block multiple enemy Ults + a convenient debuff for Mental attackers like Six). Aid Balloon Party and Medicine Pocket, are there in case things get really bad.

I'd really like to fight the alternate final boss on this difficulty, but this difficulty just isn't fun for doing casual runs. They should really add a fixed way to reach the other route for this specific difficulty.
