29:45 For future reference, you can actually look at the ceiling of the room to show you which direction the fog will allow you to go! Keep in mind that it won’t show you how to get to specific chests in the area though, only the proper way to progress the dungeon
Also fey sight will cause fog stairs to be revealed due to the torches going out. Both this and looking at the ceiling are clues learned by reading the tablets in the room.
If you're interested I do have a way on pc to remove the perks of having teammates altogether from the very beginning. It's what I used when doing mine
For the maze in Dragon Temple, if you look at the ceiling, you can see the path. For the teleporting doors in Skybound Avatar, you can see which door connects to which one by using Fea Sight (they always connect to the nearest parallel door). I applaud your patience. I played it on Normal and the game was a pain at some points then. Can't imagine doing it like this. Good job.
Really happy to see Metaphor challenge runs start to pop up. Persona challenge runs are always so entertaining for me to watch and after beating Metaphor I really believed that it had the potential to be equally fun to watch. Great run/video man!!
The wording on concentrate and charge in this game is weird lol, you can also use it as many times as you want, its just it only works on one attack. Also with elegy of the soul you can wear the dragon rewards and not get one shot, you just cant have any repel items equipped
I learned the hard way. The game is designed to gring as you go or deffently know what you're doing in the mid game, knowing what party you want to use... or ng plus lol Don't matter soloing, but I know the feeling not being strong enough and not enough time to prepare lmao
@EldianDevilPlays I believe he confirmed that he isn't doing a solo run, he's doing a No Archetype (no idea if it's mods or just not using Archetype skills) run
25:50 one useful thing is that all of the Archetypes have a bonus ability for the protagonist. Merchant gives a pile of bonus money when getting overworld wins. Mage line regens a bit of MP on stun or win in overworld, and Masked Dancer gives HP *and* MP.
Unless I missed something I think you actually made the final fight harder for yourself. If you explore all the side paths in the final dungeon on the final day you refight tougher versions of old bosses and get endgame weapons, and if you do them all he doesn't get all those extra turns since you cutoff some of his power
Damn this run completely changed my mind about the merchant. I always thought it was so ineffective and mediocre, but now I realize that it's cracked with all the crits you get.
Merchant and Tycoon are the most broken archetype in the game. They're the reason money is literally impossible to have trouble with, as early as second main dungeon.
Comparing Press Turn and One More: In the One More system, your turns are limited by the amount of enemies. In the Press Turn system, your turns are limited by the amount of allies.
You're telling me you went through the teleporting door section of the final dungeon and NOT ONCE did you use fairy vision? It's not guesswork, all the doors are horizontally connected
Say what? I did this without it, as if there are no doors in the same line on the right, you will be teleported to the left. After clearing the boss, all doors are open, so you can collect then chest.
I think if you wanted to fully commit to the solo bit, someone could likely mod the game to cause all allies to have 0 HP at battle start, similar to what some Deus had done in P3R boss battles. I don't want to think too hard about how terrifying that would be for some fights.
@@shasielaa i wonder what the best way to do it is? probably shooting jacob in the bush, opening the door as emma, not killing silas as laura at the end if Kate & Dylan stay together you can kill him too by just waiting instead oif running
@@EldianDevilPlays speaking on the bad descriptions so are the prince skills. royal sword slash and that third skill it gets are all based on the highest stat between strength and magic.
The fact that this can be done makes me realize the game is free. Merchant/Tycoon is absolutely broken and Atlus weren't thinking when they put that in the game. Congratulations to you, but this game is a joke simply because this can even be done, with ONE character. Even the "special bosses" were free because Tycoon exists. Smh

Super helpful! Ty :)

The press turn system is straight out of nocturne
This game blends pretty much every other atlus RPG and it comes out like a delicious smoothie
If you're interested I do have a way on pc to remove the perks of having teammates altogether from the very beginning. It's what I used when doing mine
It’s the masochist themselves, thought id see you here lol
It's not possible bro no way 😅😅
With the power of modding anything is possible lol
8:02 no GG ggt555😅
Oh hell yeah! Definitely

Also all mimic chests have a red outline under Fae Sight.
Game is also painful on Hard, *especially* during weather events.
You can also use Fairy sight. The fires next to the stairs disappear if it's the wrong staircase

Tysm!
Hex deals the damage you do back at you, that's why you kept dying to devourer
29:35 the dragon temple was so annoying lol. But if you look up, there’s a path on the ceiling
Bro this has been a helpful video from the first minute. So glad I found this channel. Got me hype to learn some things
Glad you enjoyed :)

Got caught off guard so many times lol
Yeah I’ve got no idea why they worded charge and concentrate the way they did, because you can definitely use them more than once per battle
43:03 yeah that second dragon is some bullshit lol
and here i thought it would take till deus to see a solo run
I don’t think he’s dropping one unfortunately
@EldianDevilPlays I believe he confirmed that he isn't doing a solo run, he's doing a No Archetype (no idea if it's mods or just not using Archetype skills) run
Welp, guess you couldn't Face your own Shadow after all O_O

Used that mage one to try and stay in dungeons forever early on. It’s so tedious I stopped later lol

Seriously it’s so good! The money cost isn’t even that big of a problem

That also isn't how the skybound avatar door puzzle works at all 💀
12:43 "When you die in Metaphor, you die in real life."
LOL
This is how i found out the "super boss" had more mechanics? Cause i nuked that dude so fast and easy. Genuinely not a challenge at all.
Comparing Press Turn and One More: In the One More system, your turns are limited by the amount of enemies. In the Press Turn system, your turns are limited by the amount of allies.
Perfectly said
Third eye passive from ninja archetype and the amulet that causes the enemy misses deplete all of their turns in the endgame
Ooo really good to know
So for the fog maze in the Dragon Temple, the route is on the ceiling. I think one of the murals mentions it?
Spacebarred it LMAO
@@EldianDevilPlaysI knew it existed and still somehow got lost lmao, no shame
I'm pretty sure third eye is a dead skill with sturdy stance
Yeah I took it off, didn’t seem to do much
For the doors on skybound avatar you can use fae sight to see where the door leads
34:17 Makarabreak, in my experience, did *not* work. The buff character is not providing the makarakarn effect.
Assuming that wasn't a bug.
Very interesting run!
Devourer of stars had me go on easy mode 💀
Bro it was rough

Yeah I’m not very smart. I went off of pure gamesense and went to the furtherst door from me and it seemed to work lol
Fun fact elegy of the soul doesn't use the faker lineage at all. Unless thats only on higher difficulties

I don't want to think too hard about how terrifying that would be for some fights.
It is doable I have done so
how about the quarry but its bodies bodies bodies
I like this idea :)
i want to see this too, loved the bodies bodies bodies video 😌
@@shasielaa i wonder what the best way to do it is?

You can do the skybound avatar before the final day lol, you're supposed to do it before the dragons
Oops LMAO. Explains why it was hell
eldian post? LETS GOOOOOO
Always good to see you here :)
Also forgot that I included you in this video LOL
Thanks for no story spoilers got the game but ain't play it yet thanks
Of course :)
@EldianDevilPlays he ho thanks bro
"So when do I get my turn?"
"Here's the neat part...you don't 😉"
Another banger dude 👍
LMFAO fr. Thanks for watching again!
How can you do a solo run in this when you need to add partners for alot of fights
Great job on the challenge tho
9 turns !!!!!!
ITS OVER 9 TURNS
elegy is just the normal yugioh player
also bad atlus descriptions strike again charage and hyper are NOT once per battle, atlus just fucked up
Ah I see, thanks for pointing it out!
@@EldianDevilPlays speaking on the bad descriptions so are the prince skills. royal sword slash and that third skill it gets are all based on the highest stat between strength and magic.
