Strategy
Laugh all you want at the opening sequence.. it's truly one of the funniest moments in RPG history! But once it's over, it's time to get serious; 69s are not easy to defeat. Look at their stats, and you'll see. They are very, very hard to hit, they hit very, very hard, and it's actually impossible to dodge their attacks. The only thing that will keep you alive is to bunch your team up on the southern part of the map and block everything that's thrown at you. EVERYTHING.
Attack only with Turbulence and Tidal Wave, because other attacks will surely miss and will result in a Knockout counterattack. You don't want to be hit by that, ever. With the odds stacked against you 8 to 6, and the enemies being who they are and all, this battle seems almost impossible...
Until Puck shows up, that is. Puck has managed to activate the frickin Zulwarn ATAC, and shows up just in time to help our heroes. Puck is a godsend in this battle; his attacks are incredibly powerful and accurate, even to the 69 ATACs! You must keep Puck alive under any circumstances; do not let him get surrounded by 69s, or he will fall. Get them dizzy with Turbulence and Tidal Wave, and let Puck finish the job. Even the big named Imperials will fall quite easily in this battle.
And that's pretty much it. Just keep Puck in good health, and this will be an easy mission. Have some fun with it, and be sure to put Battle Animation on!
Now that the mission is complete..
- You've completed the Ruin Branch!
- Movies unlocked in the Options menu!
Below are some select slides from the alternate opening movie.
And now that you're done the mission... how did it feel to be completely pwned by Puck? 8P
