Yo NICE!! Fitting that it would be Hikari to slay the Wicked in the end. Just like he slayed the wickedness in his own heart. That's some destiny shit right there. Destiny strats

Thank you very much. It worked!! You are the man!

Incredible strats, you really are built different.

Absolute insanity

Gear and Support Skills in the description. Turn-by-Turn Breakdown: Phase 1 (Throne, Ochette, Agnea, Partitio) - party order does not matter for this phase Turn 1 Throne: Latent Power - Reinforcing Jam on herself, then Aelfric's Blessing on Ochette Ochette: Springy Boots on Throne (guarantees Throne acts first on turns 2 and 3, though only turn 3 matters) Agnea: Latent Power Reflective Barrier (prevents damage from Calamity of Night) Partitio: 1 BP Donate BP on Ochette Turn 1, bonus turn Ochette: Dreadwolf (debuffs physical defence and does decent damage) Turn 2 Throne: Latent Power - Reinforcing Jam on herself, then Aelfric's Blessing on Partitio Ochette: Provoke Beasts - 1 Woodland Birdking III, 2 Headless Horseman (buffs Throne's speed for next turn, and buffs Throne and Partitio's attack and crit for the rest of the fight) Agnea: Energizing Pomegranate on Ochette Partitio: Summon Turn 2, bonus turn Partitio: Summon Turn 3 Throne: Latent Power - Reinforcing Jam on herself, then Aeber's Reckoning Ochette: 2 BP Provoke Beasts - 5 of your double hit beast (breaks Vide) Agnea: Energizing Pomegranate (L) on Throne Partitio: 1 BP Hired Help - Ruffians Turn 3, bonus turn Partitio: Latent Power - 3 BP Lionheart's Axe: On the Hunt Turn 4 Throne: Latent Power - 2 BP Surprise Attack, then Aeber's Reckoning Ochette: doesn't need to do anything Agnea: Energizing Pomegranate (L) on Partitio Partitio: 2 BP Lionheart's Axe: On the Hunt Turn 4, bonus turn Partitio: 3 BP Lionheart's Axe: On the Hunt Phase 2 (Temenos, Castti, Hikari, Osvald) - Castti must be above Hikari in the party order for this strat to work Turn 1 Temenos: Aelfric's Blessing on Castti Castti: 2 BP Concoct - Pomegranate Leaf, Whimsical Leaf, Diffusing Serum, Strengthening Serum. This is used to move Osvald or Hikari ahead of the remaining tentacles if they were hit by Tentacle Bash (which pushes the target to the end of the turn). Hikari: 2 BP Hired Help - Beastlings Osvald: One True Magic II Note: the reason everyone is at 1 HP is so that tentacle bash (which sets its target to 1 HP) does not damage anyone. If you don't care about doing this damageless, you can have all 3 non-Castti characters at whichever HP you wish. Turn 1, bonus turn Castti: 1 BP Concoct - 3x Darkdelion. Target the only tentacle that isn't broken with this to break it. Turn 2 Temenos: Creamy Saute on Castti (spicy jerky and elemental soup also work) Castti: Conjure Lightning Hikari: No Rest for the Weary (guarantees that he gets an action with sealticge' seduction up) Osvald: Sealticge's Seduction on Hikari Turn 2, bonus turns (listed in the order they occur) Hikari: 3 BP Divine Protection Castti: MAKE SURE YOU'VE SWITCHED TO YOUR STAFF BEFORE DOING THIS (concoct is weird and is the only magic skill to require you to be holding your elemental attack weapon to get the stats from it) 3 BP Concoct - 3x Darkdelion, Strengthening Serum, Diffusing Serum Turn 3 Temenos: 3 BP Aggressive Slash Castti: Energizing Pomegranate (L) on herself Hikari: Latent Power - Hienka Osvald: 1 BP Attack (Staff) - can use the other BP if you want, but it's not needed. Turn 3, bonus turns (listed in the order they occur) Hikari: Sacred Slash (debuffs and breaks Vide) Castti: 3 BP Concoct - 4x Darkdelion, Strengthening Serum Turn 4 Castti: 2 BP Concoct - 3x Darkdelion, Strengthening Serum The others don't need to do anything here.

I think Castii is the best character in the game, this girl can do so much crazy stuff.

This guy is the king of Octopath 2.

Wait just curious how can you get hikari to hit max? And what learnt skills do you recommend for the fight??

You're too good at this!

Amazing vid

That was insane. He dummied me in the first round with eye for an eye

I recently found the extra battles on the pc version , haven't seen them when i finoshed the game on Switch. The video helps me remember the game.

Truly an amazing video.

damn RUclips wont let me download this video

Thanks for all your hard work i could defeat all this bosses. I got Galdera on freestyle with the x2 axe frog, but for the rest i had to follow your guides step by step. I would love to know the other ways the devs playtested this bosses to kill them. Again thanks a lot, i spent hours trying Galdera before i knew about provoke beast's potential.

Amazing work, really great!

Really enjoyed watching this run! The speedrun community around this game is insanely cool

Oh wow, didn't think I would like this speedrun category so much, any% of this game is probably my least favorite octopath speedrun but considering all the differences this route has by taking account all tools we need to beat the hardest fights in the series alongside the regular super boss made it overall way more interesting, really enjoyed your commentary too, good job 👍

Excellent. Very excited to watch this.

In case you want to try this category for yourself or just want to read it through, here's the route for the run (which I made myself): docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTG9H9y5USRDlDSwcjJ1nQIouf9G5_d8d51g3ZMke-GtAtO6RMNs0TNlatRuXdHaTtW5qMdwAf7DyYd/pubhtml

Thank you, I was looking forward to someone making an explanation to octo 2s speedrun and Im happy its you, given the amazing 100% reliable strategy videos

Hey there, I'm prepping to try this fight out, and while I have an Ancient Cursed Talisman, I only have the one. I need to re-read your descriptions and comments again, but I was wondering if there was a way to steal/farm for more of them? I'm finding conflicting sources online. I've seen they only spawn on the Island where we find the Arcanist class. I've seen two sources saying they can be stolen off the Delsta Devil in the Sunken Maw as a rare encounter, but one was debunked saying it was an Ancient Sentinel Core, then on the Steam Resource page, it says it is in fact able to be stolen from the Delsta Devil. Was wondering if you could confirm for me one way or another? I'm still going to go look for it in the meantime, but figured it was worth asking. Thanks for these videos!

How did you get access to this fight in the game? I beat the main story. You started with the fight without explaining how you got there

Absolutely bonkers strategy, thanks for sharing! Only thing I would add is that you forgot to mention in the comment with the turn-by-turn breakdown that on the extra turn from Hienka, you need to have Hikari do a 3 BP Shinjumonjigiri; it's shown in the video but the comment doesn't mention it. As a bonus, I didn't have a Shady Inspiriting Plum (couldn't find anything about it online) but I managed to kill my party still somehow with Forbidden Elixirs, lmao. Probably wouldn't recommend it but it somehow worked out for me.

Gear and Support Skills in the description. Turn-by-Turn Breakdown: (Since both fights are similar, I will combine them into 1 and specify which actions are for each fight on actions that differ between the 2) Ensure that Throne is below Castti in the party order. Turn 1 (A Step Ahead) Castti: - (Majestic Travelers - 1st fight): Latent Power, 2 BP Concoct - 2x Pomegranate Leaf, Strengthening Serum, Diffusing Serum - (Masterful Travelers - 2nd fight): 2 BP Hired Help - Beastlings Partitio: Latent Power - Aelfric's Blessing on Castti (in the Majestic Travelers fight you may not need to latent here) Throne: - (Majestic Travelers - 1st fight): Beast Liver on herself - (Masterful Travelers - 2nd fight): Energizing Pomegranate (L) on Castti Ochette: - (Majestic Travelers - 1st fight): 2 BP Provoke Beasts - 2 aoe double hit axe beasts, 1 aoe double hit sword beast, and 2 Ettin Snakes. This gets all of them to or below 4 shields. - (Masterful Travelers - 2nd fight): 2 BP Provoke Beasts - 3 double hit staff beasts, and 2 critical up beasts. This gets H'aanit to below 3 shields and gives Throne a 4 turn critical buff. Turn 1, bonus turn Castti: - (Majestic Travelers - 1st fight): 3 BP Hired Help - Beastlings - (Masterful Travelers - 2nd fight): Latent Power, 3 BP Concoct - 2x Pomegranate Leaf, Whimsical Leaf, Strengthening Serum, Diffusing Serum Turn 2 Castti: - (Majestic Travelers - 1st fight): Hired Help - Ruffians (gets rid of their defence up buff), could boost this to add defence down but it's unnecessary - (Masterful Travelers - 2nd fight): 3 BP Hired Help - Beastlings Partitio: Aelfric's Blessing on Throne (in the Majestic Travelers fight you may need to latent here) Throne: Latent Power - Energizing Pomegranate L on Castti, and a Forbidden Elixir on herself (in the Masterly Travelers fight any pomegranate will do) Ochette: Sealticge's Seduction on Throne Turn 2, bonus turns (listed in the order they occur) Throne: Latent Power - 3 BP Lionheart's Axe: On the Hunt and 2 BP Lionheart's Axe: On the Hunt ("kills" all 4) Castti: 2 BP Concoct - Pomegranate Leaf, Whimsical Leaf, Strengthening Serum, Diffusing Serum - The video uses 3 BP for this in the Majestic Travelers fight, but it's not needed at all. Turn 3 Castti: 2 BP Hired Help - Beastlings Partitio: 3 BP Hired Help - Beastlings Throne: Reinforcing Jam on herself Ochette: - (Majestic Travelers - 1st fight): Latent Power - Beastly Howl - (Masterful Travelers - 2nd fight): 3 BP Provoke Beasts - 1 double hit staff beast, and 5 aoe light beasts. This breaks H'aanit and compensates for misses on Primrose. Turn 3, bonus turn Throne: Latent Power - 3 BP Lionheart's Axe: On the Hunt and 2 BP Lionheart's Axe: On the Hunt ("kills" all 4)

So i don’t really get how Aebers Reckoning works…? With your recommended equipment, Throne is too strong, so I switched to the recommended stuff. But that made her way too weak, so I added a couple speed boosting weapons as well, but that did nothing?

Hikari just beat them with a stick. its so Quick and clean

I just tried this strategy and it all fell apart because Hikari didn’t even do remotely as much damage as he did in your video, please next time actually show your characters equipment and stats so I can look at just how much I actually need to grind for

1:29:26 was there any advantage to the banter? Lol Fantastic run, love OT2 and its so interesting abusing the quick travel to efficiently run to a shop/npc/whatever then immediately travelling somewhere else instead of seeing the events of that town done at one time.

Merci beaucoup !

where do you get the lightning amulets for ocette?

Holy catfish, Rite of the Sun coming in clutch. I never thought I’d see the day.

Gear and support skills are in the description this time. Turn by Turn Breakdown: Active Party when starting the fight is Osvald, Temenos, Ochette, and Throne. Party order does not matter (note that speed does matter, check description to make sure your speeds are correct on each team). Before you do an actual attempt, you need to fight the boss (use same teams) and have Osvald use 2 BP Analyze on Vide's body (as shown in the video). This is to allow for Elemental Bomb Bottle to do 12 hits later. Turn 1 (A Step Ahead) Osvald: 2 BP Peacock Strut on Castti Temenos: 2 BP Precise Shot - all 4 hits on Wicked Left Arm Ochette: 1 BP Provoke Beasts - 4 Devil Deer. The counterattacks will kill her and she will revive with 32.4% of her HP. Throne: Latent Power - Forbidden Elixir on Castti, and Spicy Jerky (or Mountain Sausage) on Hikari. - You can farm forbidden elixirs in large quantities by following this tutorial: ruclips.net/video/WoX1ef5yq3A/видео.html. This fight needs 2. Turn 2 SWITCH PARTY Hikari: 2 BP Shinjumonjigiri on Wicked Left Arm - kills it Partitio: 2 BP Stimulate on whoever is last this turn (since ochette died, whoever gets paired with her might be placed after vide and this fixes that) Agnea: Windy Refrain Castti: SWITCH TO STAFF (if you don't, concoct will hit like a wet noodle), Latent Power, 3 BP Concoct - 4 Blusterblooms, Strengthening Serum. Use this on Wicked Right Arm, which will kill it if you switched to your staff and are built correctly. Turn 3 Agnea: Defend Partitio: Latent Power - 3 BP Hired Help - Foreign Assassins Turn 4 Agnea: 3 BP Elemental Bomb Bottle Partitio: Ancient Cursed Talisman Turn 5 Hikari: 2 BP Latent Power - Hienka (if you don't have full HP when using it, you should deal 40k+ per hit. This is still enough to get the kill) Partitio: Revitalizing Jam on Hikari Agnea: Latent Power, 1 BP Springy Boots. When all party members have springy boots, turn order is fully determined by speed. Castti: 3 BP Concoct - 4 Blusterblooms, Strengthening Serum Turn 5, bonus turn Hikari: 3 BP Shinjumonjigiri Turn 6 SWITCH PARTY Osvald: Energizing Pomegranate (M) on Castti. Temenos: Latent Power, 3 BP Precise Shot - all 5 hits on Wicked Left Arm Ochette: 3 BP Attack (axe) on Wicked Left Arm Throne: 1 BP Disguise on Agnea Turn 7 SWITCH PARTY Thanks to Springy Boots, turn order should look roughly like this (if Partitio and Agnea are swapped it's OK). If not, check your speeds. Hikari: Vacant Stare Castti: 3 BP Concoct - 3 Blusterblooms, Strengthening Serum, Diffusing Serum Partitio: 3 BP Attack (spear) Agnea: 1 BP Attack (dagger) Every single party member here will die to the darkness effect. This is intentional, and abuses the fact that when one party dies, all remaining actions that round (including vide's) are skipped. With springy boots this then allows the other party to immediately take their next turn. Turn 8 Thanks to Springy Boots, Temenos goes before Osvald and Throne goes before Ochette this turn. If not, check your speeds. Osvald: Energizing Pomegranate (M) on Castti Temenos: Revive (DO NOT BOOST THIS) Ochette: 3 BP Latent Power - Beastly Howl Throne: 3 BP Elemental Bomb Bottle Turn 9 SWITCH PARTY Partitio/Agnea (whoever goes first): 1 BP Stimulate on Castti (this ensures Castti does not go last) Castti: 3 BP Concoct - 4 Blusterblooms, Strengthening Serum After Castti's action, SWITCH BACK TO THE OTHER PARTY. Other 2 characters (either Hikari and someone from the other party, or 2 characters from the other party) will do the following: Character 1: Energizing Pomegranate (L) on Ochette Character 2: Stone-Roasted Rice on Castti. If it's Osvald, can use 1 BP Peacock Strut instead for the same effect. Turn 10 Only Temenos, Ochette, and Throne are guaranteed to be alive here (thanks to the lightning resistance amulets). Temenos: Latent Power, 3 BP Precise Shot Ochette: 3 BP Provoke Beasts - 6 of your 2 hit sword/staff/fire/wind beast Throne: Rite of the Sun Turn 11 Note: Osvald's turn is placed randomly when he gets revived, so he's not included here. If he gets a turn, can just do a basic attack. Temenos: Shady Inspiriting Plum (buy from the black market). This debuffs defence on the bottom party, which ensures they die to dark calamity. Ochette: 2 BP Provoke Beasts - 5 of your 2 hit sword/staff/fire/wind beast Throne: No turn thanks to Rite of the Sun. Turn 12 Due to Springy Boots, turn order should look roughly like this (Hikari and Agnea can be in whatever order) Castti: 2 BP Concoct - 3 Blusterblooms, Strengthening Serum. The Strengthening Serum actually isn't needed here, can do 1 BP instead without it. Partitio: Donate BP on Hikari (technically this is only needed if hikari has 2 BP this turn from dying, but it's done anyways) Hikari: Aelfric's Blessing on Castti Agnea: Forbidden Elixir on Castti Turn 12, bonus turn Castti: 3 BP Concoct - 4 Blusterblooms, Strengthening Serum Turn 13 Only required actions are listed here. Other characters can do whatever they want (just don't heal castti). Partitio: 2 BP Donate BP on Castti Castti: 2 BP Concoct - 3 Blusterblooms, Strengthening Serum Turn 12, bonus turn Castti: 3 BP Concoct - 4 Blusterblooms, Strengthening Serum - kills (technically you only need 1 hit to kill lol but using 4 is funnier)

🔥we making it out of solista with this one🔥

Thank you for producing this knowledge - if Octopath had its own university major this would qualify as a thesis

No Idea if you’ll see this but what was the point of conjure flames?

amazing

‘I’m sorry but AEBER PRINCE OF THIEVES’

Where i can find the snake?

Two questions: -Why does Hikari need to use Peak Performance instead of starting the fight pre-damaged to 1HP to abuse the low hp damage boost? -Why does Hikari need to use Shinjimonjigiri instead of Limb From Limb against the first hand he destroys?

if you did the Galdera speed run, is the optimal pathing still the Osvald phase 1 Throne phase 2 run? also, would you want to do it?

you should do a Galdera run next, good video btw

Bro did all my progress in 100 hours in 3 😭

Incredible run!

Just like last time, if you'd like to try this out for yourself (or just see a detailed recap of the run), here's a link to the route I used (which I made myself): docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTG9H9y5USRDlDSwcjJ1nQIouf9G5_d8d51g3ZMke-GtAtO6RMNs0TNlatRuXdHaTtW5qMdwAf7DyYd/pubhtml The only fight-related RNG in this run is the 95% collects on Garnet and Stenvar, getting x100 XP and x10 JP from Alrond on the Foreign Assassins (which is around 29% to get in the 6 summons you have), there's a rare chance in the Masterly Mysterious Travelers fight for H'aanit to take a free action after the first turn, which can potentially mess things up, and there's an extremely rare chance for the True Vide the Wicked strat to fail.

Where i can find the learnable ability for hikari

Where i can find the learnable ability hikari?

I beat all the other Extra Battles on Level 70, but I just don't think I'm going to be able to do this one. With all of the gear outlined here, my Osvald is only at 853 Elemental Attack and that just isn't enough to get the job done on Turn 1. And that's after I spent a few hours grinding him up to Level 76. I gave all my elemental nuts to Temenos and don't have any left for Osvald. Frustrating.

Bro I loveeer all your speedruns! ❤ I cannot defeat True Vide The Wicked yet 😢😅 this fucking boss is so annoying and punitive! I make a new save just for building Castti to do the DPS needed 😅 and still is not working so well...

if you were making a tier list for the power levels of usefulness of the travelers, how would you rate them? I mainly used Osvald and Hikari in my playthrough but a lot of people tend to rate Osvald fairly low as he's not very useful in the endgame fights (though it seems like you used him as a secondary DPS for your lower level Galdera clear and your 100% no RNG True Vide the Wicked clear)
