Since I was getting some bad framerates during battles, I changed my recording setup at this point. It would have been too much work to redo the first four videos, though, as they're packed with so much item creation.

In this segment I'll wrap up Disc 1 and move on to Energy Nede. This is when the game really opens up, as you can immediately get the Lezard Flask and Orchestra, granting you access to unlimited quantities of all minerals and easy item creation. If there's any crafting you had been putting off because of annoying RNG, now is the time. In particular, you should craft any Blacksmithing items that require you to not have the Magical Rasp. This includes Bloody Helms and Bloody Armor if you're wanting to have those as options.

I also want to touch on Hail the Goddess. This is the Violin song that functions as a sort of lesser Orchestra. However it does have a few uses. For instance, Orchestra always causes a character to create their "default" weapon with Customize. Hail the Goddess, however, will allow you to still access items in the Invalid pile, while boosting your overall success rate. Hail the Goddess also lasts longer than Orchestra, so for long marathons of item creation where either boosts your success rate to nearly 100%, it can be a slightly better option.
