Saga Frontier All Characters No Saves Part 3 (6:40:56 completion)
This is part three of a single-segment speed run of all characters of Saga Frontier completed in 6 hours, 40 minutes, and 56 seconds.
Red Part 2
I blame the DVD change, but I forgot to move Cotton to party three prior to the PurpleFighter X 5 battle. Unfortunately, I also did not manage to absorb Spore from the single Sporepile fought; absorbing it would have produced a Shrieker. Arachne took two turns to defeat; one turn is optimal. There were six unplanned battles in the CTC building.
At Shuzer Base, zero unplanned battles were accepted, but the Cyclops took a poor three turns; two is optimal. I wanted Heaven/Hell primarily for the Shuzer duel. Three Heaven/Hells=Shuzer talks.
Over the course of the rest of the run nine unplanned battles were accepted. The second forms of Shuzer, Berva, and Arachne took two turns each; one turn is optimal for each of them unfortunately. MBlackIII has a rather fixed attack pattern, and therefore I could plan my actions in that battle relatively easily. MBlackIII took five turns when four would have been optimal.
Blue
Controversially, I used a route that I knew was suboptimal by possibly many minutes. Faster routes use the Junk Shop; however, they also require a fair amount of luck with initiative values in the Kylin battle.
Nidheg took three turns when two would have been optimal. Kylin took five turns; four is optimal. There were two unplanned battles in this chapter; although one of those battles is quite difficult to dodge.
If the final blow to Hell'sLord is delivered by PowerGrab then "THE END" is skipped.
T260G Part 1
Once again I opted not to rename the character wasting probably a few seconds. T260G's chapter feels like a run of small mistakes; there were six unplanned battlles in this chapter; five occurred prior to the DVD change.
