Reverse: 1999 1.7 - Artificial Somnambulism: All Limbo Stages Clear (August 1st-15th 2024)
It's basically similar to the last one, but I think my carelessness on the earlier stages is increasing a little, especially with the lower levelled units I use. I definitely went in careless, but in the end, I feel like these stages are very much beatable since I found the last Limbo 6-1/6-2 manageable. But yeah, I wonder if I should just make short work of the earlier stages with my best, but I'll figure that out next time.
For now though, I did bring along all kinds of units earlier on, albeit low Resonance. They included X, Balloon Party, Oliver Fog, Sweetheart, Dikke, Desert Flannel, Druvis III, Centurion, Sotheby and Shamane. There was the 4-1 Stage where I was at my most careless, but I know I am more than capable of clearing it fairly easily, just wanted to use other units, albeit lesser invested ones in some cases. Sadly, the carelessness didn't completely go away in the 6-1 and 6-2 stages, but since I already beat those stages, I already knew it was doable. I used the wrong strategy for 6-1 at first, then 6-2 was always going to be a pain no matter how you slice it, and actually comes down to luck.
For 6-1 specifically, I brought along Spathodea, Melania and Yenisei for this one, with Melania as backup. Initially, I don't think I used the right strategy for this one. I was supposed to take out the subordinate enemies at first, then deal with the boss rather than go all in on the boss while the enemies get off more attacks. Either way, a very much doable stage.
6-2, oh boy, this was an infamous one last time, and it's no different here. 6 and 37 return as the enemies and the same strategy to take down 37 before she uses her Ultimate still applies, and that alone isn't guaranteed to seal the seal since 6 can be a bit scary when he buffs himself and/or uses his Ultimate. The reason why clearing this can be luck based is because of the Moxie that 37 can get. If uses her Ultimate on Turn 3 instead of Turn 4, it's definitely going be near impossible for me with this, but with Jessica, Jiu Niangzi, Tooth Fairy and Bkornblume, I managed this one. I didn't have as much of an issue this time, most likely because I used Tooth Fairy instead of Yenisei (while Yenisei is still amazing for a 5 Star unit, Tooth Fairy is still an OP healer to this day omg). But yeah, with factors like Jessica's advantageous damage, Bkornblume's debuffing, damage and ability to prevent an enemy from using their Ultimate via her own Ultimate, Jiu Niangzi's barrage of damage and Tooth Fairy's amazing healing, this one was very much doable for me!
Since this video was on the longer side, even for Artificial Somnambulism standards, I'm considering just brute-forcing it the whole way so it's not as long...unless I can invest in some of these units a little more, but I'm not fully sure yet. Maybe I'll play around with Druvis III a bit more since she is fairly invested in now, and maybe some others, but we'll see. For now, hope 6-2 wasn't too hellish this time for others!
