Had to try a speedrun, and like a lot of other playthrough playlists I have, it may end up being the last video of this I put up, at least consistently. Highly recommend the game as just a pretty fun cross of Warriors and Roguelite. I have 31 hours in it on Steam at this point. Runs being upwards of an hour early on is a bit longer for something to just do a run now and then compared to some Roguelites but I think it is okay.

Hades 2 randomly dropped a content patch. I want to play PoE 1 event. I want to finish up FF7 Rebirth. Maybe try Monster Hunter Wilds? For sure Xenoblade Chronicles X DE in a month. Elden Ring Nightreign at the end of May. Switch 2 sometime? Mario Kart 9? Rambling but 2025 looks amazing for me in terms of games.

Downtime between this and my last video was deciding who to play and what to build. Feel pretty good about the idea and time, but I don't know if this is the best setup. Sun Jian in my last Traversal 5 video, and the other videos that show Dazzling Bullets is probably a bit stronger than the April Showers archer volley attack, so I should have probably put them on the Formation spots that give +100% damage but this is just the first time I got an attempt past Area 1.

I restarted after the 1st area unless I got "The Art of War" after the boss. This was the first run that even happened for me. That lets you equip the Demon Eye Formation that while active gives you +100% Attack, Defense, and Attack Speed (maybe not 100% attack speed, but you can visibly check the others in your stat screen).

Charm is the best Emblem in my opinion, having Motonari Mori scale 5% Attack per charm, and giving you assemble gauge in general, not to mention Rally at the top of Charm giving more Attack and Defense per number of obtained Heroes. Diaochan looked like the best Charm Emblem hero, and she has a great Musou attack since you can move during it. She even gets more EXP with her unique weapon.

Of course Cumulative Level 500 (the max) would be what you want for the best scenario, but I had such crazy luck in Area 1 here I think it makes up for some of the unoptimal strategy and missing stats.
