Finally getting to the end of my 2nd playthrough that I've been streaming for @DireKrow
And yeah, I'll agree. Specifically Aerith part of Temple of the Ancients dungeon suuuuucks lmao. I couldn't find a few of the yummies this time and ran around that section for like 10 minutes before finding a couple rocks that I hadn't smashed yet to give me enough to continue. --- ~Silver_Ermine~ http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9r5hhXQbJ1rbct63o1_500.gif ...

That first boss fight with the dragon is still awesome. One of my favorite bosses in the game.

Red Dragon? Ehhh..... not a fan of the AoE team (near-)instakill, is there any part of the surface that is safe during that move? Felt like complete saturation. But then again I have Costa Del Sol as my favourite chapter and with my favourite boss so I probably shouldn't be criticizing favs here... ... Copied to Clipboard!

The first time he does it you can hide near the one side of the area. The second time you can't and just gotta pray and hope you have enough HP to tank it. I don't know if I'd consider it my FAVORITE boss of Rebirth, but it's up there. Though, my favorite fight of Remake was the Arsenal and I think most people don't enjoy that one as much lol --- ~Silver_Ermine~ http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9r5hhXQbJ1rbct63o1_500.gif ...

Finally finished this game a couple days ago. Really fun game, even if I got frustrated with a couple mini-game parts and side content.
Biggest criticism is twice when I died I accidentally picked the wrong option and went back too far and had to redo boss fights (seriously the wording of "Go back to previous checkpoint" isn't the clearest). Also the last boss of Chapter 12 was seriously annoying (and one of the times I picked the wrong option by accident). Died once on the final sequence on the last phase I don't normally like reducing the difficulty to easy but did so twice: first was the battle square part of the UPA sidequest. I didn't want to spend hours on it and suspected that if I hit the PoNR without finishing I'd have to do the entire UPA sidequest again. Second time was the last protorelic boss - didn't want to leave this unfinished and the suggested level was so high. --- "so is my word...It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it." - Isaiah 55:11 ...

I actually figured out how mushroom pulling is supposed to work the second time around. The game does not properly convey what they want from you.
You partially pull the stick and see which one reaches the edge first, because most of them do in fact go all the way to the same "edge". --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah, you can get that one later. I spent a good bit of poking around there too.
There was some Yellow materia in one of the first sections of the Temple of the Ancients that I missed. By the time I noticed it, I was already on the last part of the first section and couldn't go back. Hope it wasn't unique. Also random other question but, I saw a topic before Rebirth came out where people watched a trailer and were thinking we'd --- "so is my word...It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it." - Isaiah 55:11 ...

In Aerith's section, if you have a partially full bucket, you can use triangle next to it to absorb the energy back. So if you started filling something else, it is possible to get it back.

I figured out a work around but man that's stupid.
I get if they wanted us to deal wih an unavoidable attack, but having it trigger instantly by doing the very thing that is supposed to stop it is so bad. Just remove the chest as a weak point if that's what they want to do. Also he got it off one more time when Yuffie didn't have the ATB to cast Manawall so I tried to heal through it which was pointless. I had Reraises up just in case but that was a waste of 19 MP I should have not used. --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Regarding the ending, I feel pretty confident
Finish up side quests and such first yeah. There are new battles in Golden Saucer that you can beat straight away after that. You can very quickly farm to get to level 70 either using the Kitten rescue sidequest in Nibel if you simply kill bees while ignoring the queen or just by doing simulator fights. The hardest parts are hard mode and the simulator battles. You get good stuff from both that makes the other easier so the order is kinda up to you. I would personally get the third elemental from the simulators before starting hard mode, it's in one of the first hard simulator fights and it's not really a problem to get it. Then probably start working on hard mode after that so you get more manuscript pages. It's nice to have full leveled healing, revival, steadfast block, precision defense focus, prayer, hp up and mp up on all party members at all times imo. Having magnify and elemental full leveled is also very great, but not necessarily right now. Hard mode isn't really that difficult for a while. --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. ...

Completing the protorelic quest completely. After doing this, fight each region's mini-boss (like the Quetzacoatl) on Hard Mode so you can make use of the rewards from the protorelic. But that looked like late-game stuff to me. --- Not to be confused with XIII_Minerals. ... Copied to Clipboard!

But that looked like late-game stuff to me. Oh yeah, it's definitely a tough series of fights. If you're interested in the rewards, I definitely think doing Hard Mode stuff is pretty frustrating, so I definitely wouldn't recommend for everyone. I'm happy with just doing all quests (including protorelic) and doing all global intel.
