No Items, No Death

"Rem Theme" ftw. Once again Eternia provides another favorite boss theme.

With Shadow trounced, it was time to work through Regulus Knoll back to Rem to fight her on fair grounds. Even with Dartk Force, she proved to be one of the more difficult fights in the run.

It's not so much her herself, but her invincible orb of annoyance that floats around her. She tends to leave it idling mid-screen, so the casters have a tendency to run into it when trying to re-position on the field. She also loves to shoot it to the back row or make it zip around the field, killing any type of offense as you have to have to rediscover an attacking space where you can hit her down from the sky without moving to far behind or ahead.

As for Rem herself, she mainly shoots small beams of light and flies around the field. Pinning her down is a must mainly so she doesn't move the orb, but she herself can be a chore as well. She also has Holy Bliss/Life Rescue activated throughout the entire fight, so she's constantly regaining half of the last damage she received. When she starts shooting one laser followed by three, she's in the Holy Lance range of HP and needs to be hounded even more, as the last hit of Holy Lance is one of the strongest things in the game and killed anyone at this point.

It was a frustratingly fun fight, if not a little close near the end. My TP management for Meredy was a bit off I suppose, and thus I had to rush it (more so than that last phase already needs to be rushed).
