Summary: The final assault on Rilochy and Mahamayuri.
---
Five Thoughts/Questions
1)
The frost squadrons here confuse me. They're strong against monsters,
but it seemed here like they were just even against the small wyverns,
each one-shotting the other. Am I missing anything? Or is it that their
attack is strong against wyverns but maybe wyverns are strong against
people so they just are each glass cannons against each other?
2) Among Eight's different stances, is any of them just flat-out better than the other, or just all different?
3)
I continue to be surprised by how much I enjoy the tactical segments of
the game like this battle. I'm actively looking forward to replaying it
on NG+.
4) Speaking of surprise, I was SHOCKED that taking
Mahamayuri was just a matter of walking up to it and getting a victory
screen. The look of the city was incredible, unique, beautiful... and no
big fight there!
I could absolutely be proven wrong if
Mahamayuri becomes a setting later in the game for something else, but
currently it feels like content they just didn't have time to finish.
5)
Note to self: before the next mission day, check out the Dragon's Nest
near Amiter that the cadet mentioned. It sure sounds like one of those
level 55-75 places I'll try in NG+, but hope springs eternal. Just
because Dragon's Den in FFVI was a super dungeon doesn't mean Dragon's
Nest in Type-0 will be.
