Apologies for the long gap between updates, yet again. This doesn't seem to be all that popular of an LP, so motivating myself is kinda hard, plus I swore off jRPGs for a few months recently. Anywho, I am going to finish this LP, I promise. It's just taking longer than it should.
When we last left our adventurers, a dirty, stinking elf had been captured by a gigundo ball of light. Snake! Get in there!
Whaaaaaaaaaaaathefuckisthat
So, our latest dungeon is the Divine Shrine, where you move about from pillar to pillar. That's really all there is to it. This is most of a solution for one of them. It's enough to solve it without problems. There's another I forgot to snap a pic of, but none of these are really all that hard.
This room was full of monsters before I got here. I'm just that awesome.
There's got to be a secret wall here....
There wasn't. Pointless grinding room I guess.
Here's where doing that bit from earlier gets you. Go up the stairs and they'll take you to that treasure chest pretty easy.
Which has a rocket ring! In retrospect, I should probably put it on my caster/healer, since that's the more important job than just hitting the dudes with a sword.
If you aren't using a walkthrough, prepare to spend a lot of time on the ground, lost and unsure of what to do.
Anyway, that other path I mentioned earlier gets you some revive armor, which was a little bit better than what I had. Forgot to check and see what it does though.
Anywho, to finish this section up once you have the key (I didn't show how to get it cuz it's honestly the easiest key to find out of all the dungeons so far), go back up those stairs I gave the walkthrough for before, move some pots, and fall down a hole. Congratulations!
Oh man, the torches are lighting themselves! You know what that means? Awesome boss fight coming up.
Riding the moving platform. Just hit the buttons to make it move back and forth. Wheee!
This passage opens up on its own for you and doesn't really serve a point. Just more building up to the awesome boss fight ahead.
GEE I WONDER WHAT I DO HERE
Bobomb!
And here's the solution that I figured out entirely on accident. Go me!
I have five of these things now. I forget how many there are total, but I'm getting close... I think.
Obvious puzzle is obvious.
That is the worst villain hair I've ever seen.
Who could take a villain with green hair seriously?
Naw, that's just a rumor we spread around to get adventurers to clear the place out from time to time.
Well... yeah.
Dude, you grabbed the wrong chick!
And it sounded kinda fun. I don't go out much.
Don't forget! He has gigundo energy!
Sorry, I still didn't quite get that.
Oh man, awesome boss fight, here we come!
This is gonna be so cool!
Karyn! Your character sprite is fading!
OH GOD FUCKING DAMMIT
I know, Arty. What a bitch.
I
wanted to fight that boss.
That's why
I wanted to fight him!
No.
Wait. I thought his name was Gigundo!
Hell no. We don't like your kind around these parts. Filthy elves.
We really just ran a dungeon without knowing each others names? What?
And that's how I beat the WORST. DUNGEON. EVER.
Dungeon was really easy, no boss fight, and then it gives you a stat boost through the door behind Artea. Really, just a major disappointment on so many levels.
