Touhou Labyrinth 2 Low Level run - Alice's Doll (Lv2)
4The goal of this run is to defeat each major boss/foe at the lowest possible level, resorting to any strategies, no matter how cheap they might be. If they're too cheap I guess make a second version where it isn't used. For the sake of increasing the difficulty to meaningful levels, the following restrictions will be applied:
- No negative level up bonus stock
- No negative skill points available
- Hard mode library restriction (1.2x level limit)
This video showcases the fight against Alice's Doll, and because its AI is so simple - just a regular attack on every turn, we can exploit that a bit and grind a favorable outcome at a lower level than usual. I've found that at level 3 it is possible to win this fight consistently by just tanking hits and keeping yourself buffed and healed. But by abusing some EVA and getting some lucky misses, we can stumble upon a lucky win at level 2.
This fight had way above average luck, it took me around 15 attempts to get it, whereas on level 3 I got it on my second try and then three more times consecutively. What makes it possible as well is Kasen debuffing the doll so that Momiji can actually tank 2 hits, which is enough to have another character heal Momiji and keep the fight going. So the first 2 attacks are key - one of them needs to miss, or one of them needs to go for Cirno.
Cirno can debuff the boss' SPD if she survives, which is great, but not entirely necessary to win. If you can put up your buffs and stick an ATK debuff you're golden for finishing the fight. The only matter is making sure Kasen, Marisa and Rumia can kill the thing fast enough. Switching out Reimu or Minoriko reduces your active support, meaning you're going to have to commit to the damage rush.
A very fun fight overall, and I don't think a level 1 setup can work outside of NG+, unless you just go for full EVA on every hit - which is very unrealistic.
