A pretty long video all things considered here as everyone crawls out of the woodwork looking for a piece. Luckily, Ledin has some sustain so we can keep going as more and more people pop in. And when it is all said and done, there is nothing left to stop Ledin from setting the world ablaze. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhW3Uas7W8M
The final push against Black Hole in Blue Moon kicks off, and I opt to send Grit and Max against them. I want to make this a textbook Grit game, so I have the wall of infantry pushing forward with the artillery moving in behind them. Wave after wave of infantry is needed to replace the wounded as you push, and whatever swings at them gets shot up on the following turn. Once we push around one side of the factory, we are clear to focus on the seam and bring the mission to an end.
As for the Orange Star side, I bring Max here as his tanks can also do a number on the seam if you get close enough. Had I done Yellow Comet first, I think you can use them here, but this is a mission where I preferred Max since you just have to smash anything that gets close while Grit's phalanx advances. If you get an opening take it, otherwise you can just help Grit push.
With this, the second region of the game draws to a close, and we move onto the third. Next stop: Yellow Comet.

The final investigation commences as we need to use the information we just gained to crack the case. We gain some important information here that will most likely play roles as we go deeper into the series, such as Ruby having a contract. However, we also learn that the price for Tyrion lying when using his powers can be fatal. This is a detail that is going to be incredibly important in the final battle...

This is a somewhat lengthy sidequest, but since I am much higher than the ideal level for it, I can burn through it pretty quick. You need to accept a mission from the Kunitsukami that will finally cause Arahabaki to recognize you, leading to a fight with him. When he goes down, you can then fight the four Kings (I don't know if you need to beat them normally before this), except they are stronger than they used to be. They aware loads of EXP, so my levels are getting pushed even higher making me wonder how you were supposed to do this without leveling up rapidly.

I picked up the DLC fairly late, and as a result, I am really overpowered for this fight. Namely with Matador, make sure you have protection from the wind, and then you only need to worry about his high evasion. Andalucia is still pretty dangerous, but I think the fight in Nocturne was both simpler and harder due to the Magatama system. Getting really good demons is a tad hard to do in this game.

This is a very short dungeon that yields an accessory to boost JP gain. If someone has fallen behind or you desperately want the Conjurer boost for skills, it can help bring someone up to speed. Other than this, there is no boss to be encountered and no pieces of ultimate gear, so it is up to you if it is even worth the trip.

After reaching the city on the other side of the mountain, we have a couple things to do before we can go ahead and face Misty. First, we have access to some Eevee exclusive moves, namely Buzzy Buzz, which will be extremely helpful against her. Second, there are some trainers to go after, but at this point, I didn't realize how worthless fighting trainers actually is. Once she is down, we can make our way to Vermillion where more awaits.
Also, there is about 1 minute in the video that has to be muted due to copyrights. I do not want ads on here, so I have started the process to mute it, but I don't know if it will be ready when this goes live. I also wanted to bring this up so no one panics if they reach that point and all sound dies.

In the first two routes, this is the mission where the city is under siege by petrifying monsters and you have to rescue them (Lance included). Since this is playing out differently, there are different monsters here. Sadly, as a result of that, we are not able to rescue all of the villagers as you can see even Ledin moving at full speed can't get there before the monsters kill them. Otherwise, this is a fairly normal mission, setting us up for the one to come next.

This video is Blue bursting into high rank. Normally, I would recommend when you start a new rank to do the farming smaller monster quests so you can get some high rank materials and decide what you want your first set of armor to be. Since I'm helping him though, we can wreck this reptile and get ready for the next monster. Blue is able to see high rank weapons and armor on my screen, so he has a very good idea of what direction to head and he wastes little time getting there.

With the Reverie Corridor behind us, we enter the Ancient Battlefield and make our way to the Sun Temple where the climax plays out. We are forced to cut through Heiyue thugs, and have a finale against two old enemies teaming up that even has a time limit restriction to go with it. Can't ever catch a break I tell you.
