10-17 Adverse, Casters only

A real pain in the butt, took me forever to get this done with these 4 characters.
First of, while it is fairly consistant, the execution for the first part can sometimes vary because Dusk things; so you always have to pay attention and be ready to improvise if things don't go as planned (which I actually had to do in this run).
After that there's an "rng" check at 2:36: Dusk needs to spawn a summon to block the boss while he's stunned. She doesn't always do this as the boss is splitboxed on an undeployable tile, and her attacks can cause the Freeling to "spawn" on the undeployable tile. If she doesn't get a summon out, the boss reaches his smoke break in phase 1 which is a big nono cause it means he's going to move instantly as soon as he gets to phase 2.
Then there's a very precise timing window for him to transition to phase 2 cause the cannon needs to be charged just the right amount for a shot to be fired after exactly 11 hits during his transition, this is pretty consistant, but if he dodges too much before he gets cannoned, this part can fail.
And then there's a tremendous rng check where both Amiya and Beeswax have to survive the intermission random attacks, which is a lot easier if Eyja tanks the maximum amount of attacks she can before getting cannoned, which happened in this run.
And then the last part is actually consistant.

So yeah... not very fun
