Dora, the explorer (of the depths of hell and despair.) I like Dora, OOPARTs are a new concept in this one, considering it's SaGa roots, and it really makes this game so customizable. Choose Dora if you want a good intro to the story and world while also getting into the systems of OOPARTs collecting. Although, that final boss...
Yeah, it's tough. It may not seem like it since this is my second go at it, but I was super prepared this time. Balancing critical offense with endurance is key here, as well as ways to clear yourself of buffs and circumvent being mana dry all fight. You might notice I have half my party casting from soul, the other life. Lots of insurance just in case, this boss can get up to 7 or more attacks later on and you need to be in good enough shape to not only keep yourself up but keep pace in slaying those layers one after the other. I didn't have counter-ignoring OOPARTs on everyone, which I should have.
Very cool designs all around.
Also unlike Natalie, who doesn't seem to have much of a canon party outside Lavie, and Shiki who has a lot with Tsubame and Yoko, Dora really seems to have a "canon" party pictured here. Lots of unique scenes with Chocolat, Melissa, and Meshleia.
