About the run:

This run, for the most part, utilizes what I've decided to call """RNG routing"""
Basically what this means is I fight the boss using the same RNG seed every single time, meaning the boss is all but guaranteed to behave the same way as long as I also behave the same way. Basically, if I defend on turn 1 and the boss uses a regular attack, every single time I restart the fight and defend on turn 1 the boss will always use the same action in response as long as the RNG hasn't changed, the same goes for turn 2, turn 3, etc etc.
---
Rules:

- Not a rule per se, but this run was played on the Normal difficulty mode.

- Only Jenna is allowed to perform meaningful actions during battle. For battles where the rest of the party is forced, I have to fail Summons every turn until Jenna is the only one left alive. Failing a Summon is the only true "do nothing" command in the game, as Defending makes you take less damage and is considered a meaningful action.

- No Djinn may be on Standby when a battle starts to prevent turn 1 Summons, unless they're to be used for the tactic mentioned above.

- No items may be used in battle, except for the Trident against Poseidon as this is 100% required for the fight to be beatable.

About the battle:

Technically a fight you don't have to win but it warrants a video because... well, Karst and Agatio as characters are kinda gone after this point lol
The Flame Dragons fight is almost identical in terms of their abilities but at that point you're better equipped to deal with them and also don't have to spend turns waiting for Sheba to die.

Jenna spends a lot of the fight in the Swordsman class series as well due to multiple Mercury Djinn being either on standby or in recovery, altering her class and giving her more HP, Defense, and Attack but lowering her max PP and Agility (and Luck but not by much)

(These are her stats/class when all the listed Djinn are set. If one or more go on standby then these will change as shown in the Djinn menu during battle.)
