Proof again that the real heroes of this game is the Merchant Army!

[@netherportals]

The nice thing about there being so many dragon warriors is that I get to hear that fight animation sound at least once a month here.

[@Vic_v._Gerdenheim]

I've never seen someone beat Ragnar's chapter without Healie. Neat!

[@aktchungrabanio6467]

A sensational adventure filled with tears, joy, infidelity, passion, and disguise.

[@Wyrenth]

I did not realize you could have both Lucia and Panon in the party... I thought there was only room for one NPC at a time! Also, random boat is random at the end there.

[@BaccarWozat]

In chapter 3 you can have 2 hirelings.

[@sarcasticguy4311]

38 million rewinds? (spits out drink)

[@FourBudgies87]

I love how Taloon with only 4 HP defeats Necrosaro by himself.

[@BaccarWozat]

Still can't get over the fact that Ragnar has a creeper face.

[@melvint-p9500]

Did not know you could attack yourself

[@strombolijones4255]

Dude cheating? How are there no mobs in the tower with Ragnar and he never takes a single hit from the boss? Something seems off

[@TampopoInteractive]

RNG manipulation on a TAS.

[@Dylan_thebrand_slayer_Mulveiny]

@@TampopoInteractive No, he's right, it's cheats. He's using game genie.

[@kl4969]

Yes, you figured it out. TAS is short for "Uses Cheat Codes".
