Description:

After the events of the previous game, Rean is now a reluctant war hero for Erebonia's expansionist policies. After a mission in North Ambria, Rean is assigned to be an instructor at Thor's Branch Academy, where he has to teach a new Class VII while enlisting their aid in dealing with Erebonia's era of upheaval.

=======================================================

0:00 Einhel Level 4

For this trial, we get Tita instead of Rean. The good news is that she gets Orbal Gear by default instead of having to transform into it. The bad news is that because her hitbox in the combat zone is larger, this can unexpectedly mess up your formation. They really should have accounted for her larger hitbox in the tactics menu.

The enemies in the first area have high physical defense, except for the miniboss fused drome. The next area has plenty of U-Material dropping archaisms.

37:46 Boss: Pale Apache S

I recommend giving Tita the Scorpio MQ to make use of her high STR. Watch out for attacks that inflict mute and blindness.

43:25 Trial Complete

With this, there are no more major tests for Einhel, other than maybe some bonding event areas.

Schmidt tells Rean that Franz Reinford was the one who originally came up with the concept for the five basic Soldat types.

51:01 Discussing the Next Field Exercise

Victor shows up to discuss the next exercise in Heimdallr, where we suspect Calvardian agents are up to no good.

59:50 Aurelia vs Victor

When Aurelia and Victor duel in the training hall, their power is so intense that everyone in the school can feel it. Aurelia wins by cutting Victor's scarf, though she suspects the result may have been different if he wasn't weakened. Though Victor insists that Aurelia would have won regardless. He also states that now that she's reached the height of her skill, she realized the emptiness of that achievement.

Laura wants to spar as well, leading to Rean, Fie, and Sara joining her against Aurelia and Victor.

1:06:23 Boss: Aurelia & Victor

Unlike me, have the Aegis/evade tanker stand farther away from everyone. I recommend Sara for this role, since she can buff herself without arts.

They can use link attacks, which left Rean on death's doorsteps. Sadly for them, they only got one turn each before I broke them.

1:12:48 Aftermath

Despite lowering them to 0 HP, this is treated as a loss for the party. This seems inconsistent with how similar battles require us to drop bosses to x% of their HP, which is supposed to justify their complete lack of fatigue in the following cutscene. Yeah, this aspect of the game is inconsistent in general.

While talking to his class, Rean accidentally leaks that the field exercise is in Heimdallr.

Victor states that something went wrong with Cedric's field exercise and that we should guide him. We don't really know any hard details though.

Thanks to this training, Rean finally upgrades his S-Craft to have SSS+ damage in his base form, allowing him to catch up to Laura, Fie, and Sara. Though they're probably working on their 4S damage S-Crafts.
