Final Battle of the chapter: 2:27:56

After messing around for a bit playing this game for simply fun, I ran into an oversight that kind of killed my mood. I was going for the true ending, but one of the items I needed I left on Kira and she doesn't come back till after that quest is gone forever. Bye bye my figurine because I picked it up with her Xd

So I decided I'd mess around with OBS and see if I could get around fatigue of restarting from like chapter 4 and while my first outing had some issues, after changing the FPS to 30 frames, the drops went away and since it's not hitting 60 on this game regardless, it's not much of a loss for the stability. It really didn't like stages with water.

Something I wanted to try was getting my units promoted before leaving chapter 1 and I actually was capable of doing it. By rushing my unit up, I was able to get him to 10 and exp off him to get my cleric to 10, then he excelled to 11 and was the exp horse, which by the key stage, everyone was 10 outside my main, which..

Since he decides what level the key enemies are at, I'm basically using him as a accessory. If he can do something that won't get him exp, I tried everything I could to make sure that happened. Then the key stage, even when you can do it later, just becomes a joke. I'll probably do it for the next chapter as well the best I can, but once the flames come in, I'll probably let him level off those. Last I did it, I was lvl 10 and went up to like 16 or 17 off them, so it should go pretty well.

There was a defeat, since I'm using one less person, the strat I went for it a bit risky and I messed up my positioning on the Ant. Went on luck, didn't pan out, knew lead was gonna die when I turned him the wrong way. Missed out on the archer kill as well, came back, got him in the 2nd round. Key stage is pretty grindy, I'd honestly skip around it, as it's a pretty boring stage altogether regardless. Like 6 turns of going up a wall before contact, woo. You can't even hit anyone with your archers, unlike the enemies who arc it over the wall at ridiculous angles Xd

Grinding aspect will pretty much cease, I'll use my mp and if there is a forced wait, I might use a circle here and there, but things should speed up. I don't mind using my mp for exp gain, but I'm not gonna circle exploit grind to like 35 or something. If I sacrifice something or its my base mp, I got no issues, but not gonna do that.

Thank you if you decide to read this and watch.
