Octopath Traveler - Ophilia Lone Traveler Speedrun 1h1m10s (Solo) (PC) (No Mic)
15No mic attached for this run but see my commentated version if you want to hear my explanations as you watch the run: https://youtu.be/vl3BUBuHGEM More info on the run below:
Compared to my Switch run, it's not actually much better since I don't have a Cait in this one and wiped about the same number of times (2 times to Reptalios trying to get from level 13 to 15 then 1 wipe in Lorn, and I'm not sure where else), plus wasted time on that seashell monster outside Rippletide because I was being silly. Also messed up the end of the Mattias fight and dragged it out about 3 or 4 turns more than it should've been. Lots of my timesave are due to faster loads on PC really.
I YOLOed a lot because of that timeloss though, so it made up for it a bit. Edit: in hindsight, I think routing out the Pom S is better and to just use RVeils and plum sooner (2s to get pom s by goldshore + 4s to use pom s in battle due to navigating to it vs 4s to use reflective veil, same with Pom S by Stonegard). Stones and EI procs were about average I think. Should've skipped the Starseer L but was scared of Inhibit failing again. Hrodvitner battle has changed if you watched the previous solo - now it takes 1 extra turn but uses a Pom M instead of Pom L, so we have an extra to use on Mattias.
Anyway, overall fine I suppose. First try on all the bosses and should serve as a good learning reference for other soloers attempting this or just an enjoyable watch if you like watching challenge/solo speedruns. (If you want to do this and can't buffer glitch on your PC/Xbox, you can try Gentleman's Charm instead of Void and grind just a bit for Mattias/MMSF or just use Royal Crest and Reflect a lot or something.)
Btw, sub hour is definitely possible, especially if you want to grind a Cait to skip some of the later battles/stones (pre-Scholar Cait would obviously be optimal but even pre-WW Cait is good), though even without a Cait, it is possible since my menu's and execution weren't optimal. I might try again one day but have some other priorities in life at the moment, so I don't want to dedicate too much time to one thing.
Lastly, I may try streaming one day, so feel free to follow me on Twitch if you'd like: https://www.twitch.tv/animefanx11 (probably won't be super often but would like to try it here and there)
