Mars of Aritia Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Have you ever wondered what the maximum possible asset score (gold + weapon value) for Lyn mode is? No? Well I did. (Hint: It's more than double the S rank fund requirement). Most FEs have arenas where you can grind for money, however as Lyn mode does not, the max possible money is finite. Lyn mode also has a lot of unique quirks that makes maximising value an interesting challenge. If you're interested in a run where Dorcas is one of the most useful units, this is for you. I made a demonstration run for this challenge. do note that I am making heavy use of glitches. Part 1 video below (up to ch7), part 2 should be out when I bother to fix a mistake I made at one point.

AnonymousSpeed Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 That's pretty cool. It's a unique idea for a challenge run and I liked the little money counter you put in the corner. Top quality video editing. I am now curious what a glitchless version of this run would look like, but it probably would end up less interesting than the enemy selling sprees on display here. I'm assuming this is a TAS, right? 10 hours ago, Mars of Aritia said: Most FEs have arenas where you can grind for money, however as Lyn mode does not, the max possible money is finite. Isn't there technically a limit on the funds Eliwood and Hector can have due to the cap on how much money you can have and the finite inventory space?

All of this is possible in real time, I just TASed it so the video isn't an hour long. I believe glitchless would reach somewhere in the 50,000G range. though half of the fun is the glitches imo. might be faster though. And yeah, the money cap is 999,999. You can get there by grinding the arena forever and I don't think that would be very interesting to see. the game would record 999,999 even if you have more assets anyway.

Eltosian Kadath Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 What an amazing run, but I am a bit curious, how does the weapon use against the wall in chapter 4 end up saving/making money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't. I am forced to do it because of the tutorial. normally Dorcas would crit the bandit nearby, however as I skipped that, I need to attack something or the game will softlock, and I also need to get a unit up to the top corner to perform enemy control before time runs out, so the wall is the best target.

Mars of Aritia Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 Part 2 is finally done. Sorry I took so long, i was just extremely lazy. Unless I made a mistake somewhere, the grand total should be 71,357G. That's enough for two white gems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
