Update 2/12/22

I've updated these notes with quadraacep's changes to the route (Force Shield skip, early H'aanit) along with some menu order optimizations and whatnot. I only looked at the Cait route, although I think all the changes apply to both routes.

I also recommend using quadraaceps's Notes, especially if you want to make your own changes. He's been running more actively and his notes are likely to be more up to date in the future. To my knowledge, he doesn't have notes for the Cait route so these are still of use.

Gareth (144 SP)

This fight is like Elemental Aid Vanessa now, except you want to break.
Improvise based on turn order :)

Turn 1
  • Ophilia: Glacies xMAX
  • Alfyn: Injurious Seed + Essence of Grape / Wind L / Pom M Ophi
  • Therion: Defend / Donate BP
  • Tressa: Peacock Strut
  • If Ophi first, Glacies x2 + Wind L to kill adds.
Turn 2
  • Ophilia: Ignis x4
  • Merchant: Donate BP x3

TP Wispermill and head to Shrine of the Starseer.

Steorra, Starseer (144 SP)

This turn is kind of hard to explain, so I'll just list the goals of the turn.

  1. Get Leghold up. This can be done through Leghold or Injurious Dust + Curious Bloom, which also breaks a shield.
  2. Heal / prevent status. Anyone can heal with Herb of Clarity, Alfyn can prevent with Soothing dust + Curious bloom.
  3. Set up turn 2 Aelfics. You need to Pom Therion & defend with him if he's after Ophilia. Worst case, you can Soothing Seed + Curious Bloom Therion to put him before Ophilia.
  4. Break 1 shield off Steorra. Can be done with any character that has a free turn. This can also be done next turn.

Despite all this text, this fight is pretty easy. You generally have multiple free turns. Just need to get a feel for it.

Turn 1
  • Ophilia: Heal status / Pom S Therion / Fire/Ice/Thunder M / Ignis
  • Tressa: Heal status / Leghold / Donate BP Therion
  • Therion: Defend / Heal status / Pom S self
  • Alfyn: Soothing Dust + Curious Bloom / Heal Status / Injurious Dust + Curious Bloom

Take note of whether or not Alfyn Peacocks Ophilia before she does Ignis

Turn 2
  • Therion: Aelfics Ophilia
  • Ophilia: Ignis Ardere
  • Tressa: Mercenaries if you need to break shield / Grape M
  • Alfyn: Peacock Strut x2 Ophilia

Revitilizing Jam has to be after Ophilia's turn. If Ophilia is last, have Therion defend and use it T4. Therion's turn is the least valuable T4.
Note that if you used Revitalizing Jam for Dreisang, you need to use a Pom L + Refreshing Jam instead.

Turn 3
  • Ophilia: Ignis Ardere x4
  • Tressa: Collect x4
  • Therion: Grape M if not done already / Revitalizing Jam Ophilia / Defend
  • Alfyn: Grape M if not done already / Revitalizing Jam Ophilia / Defend

Fight changes depending on amount of shield on Steorra. 4S is free, 8S is slightly harder, 12S is the worst one.
You need someone between Ophilia T4 and T5 to give him 1 BP. Should always be possible with 4 & 8 shields, and possible most of the time with 12 shields.
If you need to use Revitilizing Jam, try to use it with Therion.
If you get 12S, someone needs to be able to give Ophilia 1BP between his turns T4 and T5. If not, you need an extra 2 L Stones + Amputation to kill. In this case, you might just want to have Tressa Leghold T4, finish break T5, and finish T6 with a Holy Light or something.

Turn 4
  • Pay attention to number of shields Steorra has left
  • Ophilia: Tenebrae x4 (4), Tonitrus x4 (8), Ignis x4 (12)
  • Tressa: Defend / Donate BP (4/8), Rain of Arrows (12)
  • Alfyn: Rev Jam if needed / Injurious Seed + Plum (8), Injurious Seed + Curious Bloom (12) / Defend
  • Therion: Rev Jam if needed / Defend
Turn 5
  • Ophilia: Ignis x4
  • Alfyn: Amputation x4 (if 8 or 12 shield & no peacock before Ophilia's turn T2)
  • Rest: Pom S Ophilia if needed.

TP Saintsbridge.

TP Orewell

Alfyn Ch.4

Two one-text-box cutscenes, press A instead of skipping to immediately gain control afterwards.

Ogre Eagle (164 SP)

There's lots of ways to get little bonuses here. I recommend playing with this fight to get a feel for it.
Assuming min damage, you need an L Stone + an Amputation x4 / M Stone to kill. With Summon Strengh on Alfyn, you can kill with Amputation x4 + M Stone but you'd have to give up The Show Goes On which gives you status immunity T2 with Curious Mist T1.
With Elemental Break you don't need any extra damage from Therion / Alfyn.
With broken shield T1 Amputation + M Stone does enough damage.

Turn 1
  • Ophilia: Pom S/M Therion / can Elemental Break if Therion before Ophilia
  • Alfyn: Soothing Dust + Curious Bloom / Injurious Dust + Curious Bloom or Leghold / Pom M Ophilia or Icicle
  • Therion: Defend / Pom S Self / Aelfics
  • Tressa: Peacock Ophilia
Turn 2
  • Therion: Aelfics Ophilia
  • Ophilia: Glacies x3
  • Tressa: Donate BP Ophilia / Defend if last next turn or she's after Ophilia T3 and Ignis will kill next turn.
  • Alfyn: Conoct Purifying Seed + Essence of Pomegranate Ophilia / Pom M Ophilia / Pom L if Tressa can't Donate BP
Turn 3
  • Tressa: Collect x4
  • Ophilia: Ignis Ardere x4
  • Therion: L Stone
  • Alfyn: Amputation x4

Watch Ophilia's JP after Ogre Eagle. Need 4630 for Surpassing Power.

Gustav

If you get Peacock + a Pom L before Ophilia T1, you can kill with Ignis x3 & Ignis x4
If you get one of them, a 2xIgnis with Peacock or a 3xIgnis + 4xIgnis + Fire M kills
If you get Ophilia first, it would take an extra L + M Stone at least. The L might need to be Fire or Shadow. I recommend just reverting to Aelfics in this scenario.
