7:32 Both good options if you're in an Ironman Run. And this chapter is no joke and is hell on Maniac Mode. 11:20 And CHOP. The Funny thing is in the Mobile game, the axe users made two clubs. CHOP and HACK. 14:20 Quadruple in Maniac. 19:50 One more thing : If any of Elincia's retainers were to fall; Geoffrey,Lucia Bastion ; you do not get the Amiti. Instead, you'll get a Slim Sword. This is the Big Difficulty spike if you're playing on Maniac Mode. Most likely, you cannot outlast the amount of enemies that are on this map. Enemies on Hard : 60 total, Enemies on Maniac Mode : 65 to start, 60 more to come! You can try to Outlast Clash, but you are going to run out of weapons. A small remedy is to have a well trained Volke and Sothe to steal weapons from enemies that are carrying more than one weapon. Would also recommend any Laguz units you are using to carry a couple extra weapons in their inventory to just hand out any spares that you need. A strategy is to have two small teams occupy the top right and the bottom left squads while Ike and the others just rush to Bertram. Try to Forge as much High Might Javelins and Hand axes as you can before getting to this chapter. 34:00 Yu-gi-oh GX was great. Always liked the one student in the rival school that had the voice of a 7 year old. And of course the "Chazz It UP!" chant. 35:15 Yeah, when you make the Strength stat the CON Stat as well, it just makes weapon Weight non existant. 39:35 Good to know. 58:47 The Adept, did take up Durability. 1:10:20 *Growl Builds to a crescendo* 1:10:40 RIP Stealable Spear. 1:12:40 This would be the "Death Squad" for Maniac mode. Not just those 3 cavs, but the 4 more that spawn. And then two more turns later.
After seeing your message in the Discord about it, I can understand why you were asking if Astra and Adept used more than one durability. I tried to find more info about it after my educated guess, but I couldn't quite find out anything definitive
Chapter 26: 8 turns no deaths or close calls. My team: Titania, Soren, Mia, Marcia, Mist, Lethe, Volke, Nephenee, Jill, Astrid, Janaff, Tanith, Calill, Ranulf, Haar, Lucia, Geoffrey. I only just realized this map that losing Reyson was worse than I realized because he was holding the Hammerne that I planned to use on the Sonic Sword back then. I came out of this with 2 more Physics, 1 Sleep and a Meteor. 39:28 For some more clarification on your note: Adept is just another standard attack the only thing different about it is that a follow up from Adept can't trigger Adept again. Astra will use durability on every hit as long as the enemy still has at least 1 HP before the hit lands. Also if the weapon has less than 5 durability it will still do all 5 hits instead of breaking in the middle. 1:04:46 On hard there's an extra swordsmaster in the middle of the 3 sages. One thing you didn't mention is how Bertram has Daunt just like Petrine. Something funny that happened for me is how one of Tanith's reinforcements got in range of Bertram and he swapped to his Spear to attack her so I managed to get his Runesword with full uses.
Hey Tom, love the series. I don't know how far in advance you're recording and if this is even applicable anymore for you (also it's been a hot minute since I last played Path of Radiance), but you should be able to have Lethe shift at the start of next chapter normally, even though she had the Demi Band equipped at the end of this chapter. In the battle preparations you unequip the Demi Band, undeploy her, leave the deployment menu, re-enter it and then redeploy her. That should set her Turn 0 gauge to 16 and have her shift normally at the start of the chapter. The difference compared to just having her halfshift the entire chapter is of course miniscule, but you talked about unequipping the item in one of the recent videos for that purpose. Have fun in the last chapters and thank you for the Let's Play
HMMMMMMMMMM I wonder why we wanted to get Mist's staff level up. Quite the mystery Sir Tomathan. I'm excited to see what your plans come to in the future!
one of my favorite things is when RNG starts REALLY going in someones favor and you can hear them getting more and more suspicious of the game, like they think it's luring them into a trap. We got a lot of that here.
It's unfortunate that no new uploads for this LP have happened. But I guess I can understand why. After Sparks of Hope, you didn't seem too eager to do any more actual LPs. Just went more for streaming.
-Ike walks out of his tent to get get the battle report.
-Sees Mia and Largo sitting there knitting aggressively at each other.
-Decides not to ask...
I like how Elincia draws a lot of parallels with Marth. Ike is more like the mercenary character you see is most every game
Brom: I find your lack of spells disturbing... Hilarious for me... disturbing for you!
*Gets Elincia as a playable unit*😃
*She's a Pegasus Knight that can heal*😄
*She's Level 1*😖
Elincia is so precious, so strong, even if not that strong here.
Lucah voice: "Look at this map."

It's not a theory. Rajaion is a laguz who is in love with Ena. Ashnard experimented on him to keep him in his dragon form.
Yep! Rajaion is a feral one.
And spoilers:
He is the oldest son of the King of Goldoa and Ena's fiance.
Yeah, a story moment revealed later, maybe it's good he doesn't know that yet. 😅
And now I'm finally caught up. This LP has been a blast

Tom keeps saying "It'll pop up on screen", but it never does.
A perfect level up is such a treat to see, don't you agree?
Level three!!! Hmmm, I dunno if Mist is going to hit level 20 in this playthrough. There's a slight possibility that she won't. 🤔
Another one of my favorite chapters!
HMMMMMMMMMM I wonder why we wanted to get Mist's staff level up. Quite the mystery Sir Tomathan. I'm excited to see what your plans come to in the future!
I think Tom forgot his voice changer voice for Black knight. It's fine though :)
You got the biggest pop out of me naming the axe .hack!
.Hack I get it!
I've read that manga! Or at least book 1. I have // Legend of the Twilight on my shelf right now.
I feel like this is either the end or very close to it. 20:03 Did Tom not put it on screen because he was correct?
He's right, it's 10% HP Restored. And we're very close to the end.

Has tom given any update, since it's been two months since this episode? Not rushing, just curious
Game on!
Have you considered thst King Ashnard does this because he's... Mad!
It's unfortunate that no new uploads for this LP have happened.
But I guess I can understand why. After Sparks of Hope, you didn't seem too eager to do any more actual LPs. Just went more for streaming.
This will continue. I've been busy with other things in my personal and working life. I'm not sure when, though.
@@TomFawkesso basically the LPs are on Hiatus until then.
So, did Tom forget about this series? No uploads in 3 weeks and playing Engage on stream makes it feel like he's dumped this LP
Still working on it. The chapter I'm on has a very RNG heavy part at the end and I want to show off everything I can.
@@TomFawkes Good luck Tom!
Ah, ok! Glad it's being continued. I have a feeling I know what you're talking about. Love the voiceovers you do for the LP!@@TomFawkes
Any progress 😔
As someone who has beaten this game, I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. Oh boy, RNGesus DUNKED on me that chapter
When is next chapter?
I love it! ".hack" reminds me of the .hack series, including .hack//quantum, which was my first Blu-ray anime ova.
