Jedi Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) I will be doing a Video series on the various bosses encountered in Trails of Cold Steel, using the PC port that just released today. The first boss isn't particularly hard, you just need to know your buffs and stuff, commentary is in the videos this time too.

Jedi Posted August 3, 2017 Author Share Posted August 3, 2017 The Minos Demon is pretty simple really, just keep Motivate and Resounding Beat active, give Rean the glasses you find in the schoolhouse to prevent blind, widdle down the enemy health now with your additional Link attacks and profit, he's also weakish to wind so Elliot casting Air Strike every now and again can help as well. @Sire @Rapier Figured you two might be interested because you expressed some interest in CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raguna Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Nice going, I'm pretty sure you won't really have an issue but be careful with certain more spoilerific bosses if they ever come up. Good luck with the long hour treks you're going through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or nah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or nah. I'd say just stay with the main bosses and maybe some of the ones in the Practical Exams. I don't think the Monster Quests should be part of the "main" series of boss fights if you understand. You could just save the recording for those battles and keep them in a subcategory.

Noted also Boss #3 The First of many practical exams, this guy is a magical powerhouse and if you let him he will do Grand Press, Rean & Gaius can barely survive but Elliot will croak, do your usual buffs and pray Reans turn comes up while the thing is casting, Gaius's role is to keep its attention and counter him while doing Link Attacks with Rean. The Swordtail Emblem is good for extra Str & HP which is usually best on Rean or Laura throughout the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedrunning might benefit from a few of my later strats like I have a particularly nasty trick vs C when you have Angelica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 The boss guide continues Spread out your characters, make sure Laura or Alisa has Anti Confusion, have Rean do motivate and arc slash, have Laura do Armor Breakers with some Str buffs, have Alisa spam some Demonic Scythe and keep Rean & Laura cp'd up, have Elliot do his usual stuff, and you'll be golden, also make sure Laura can S-craft the crap out of someone.
