So I just beat the game<\/a>… at level 1, with everything cleared\/collected (aside from the four bad end classes) and all equipment upgraded to +9 or higher.<\/p>\n

Hardest fights were Gilded Hunter<\/a> (his power-up has a limited duration and can be guarded through), those twin Yetis<\/a> in the Deeps (Fire Weapon & Ice Guard), the Spire Fire<\/a>\/Ice<\/a> boss fight (used this build<\/a>), and the final<\/a> bosses<\/a> (used this build<\/a>, swapping Blood Guard for Hasten after Skull King fell).<\/p>\n

I’ve never really seen the appeal of low-level challenges, and honestly there were more than a few frustrating moments… yet after beating the game and leveling up to 90 for NG+ everything suddenly dies so satisfyingly fast. The contrast made it almost<\/em> worth the effort. Ironically though, it seems I didn’t have to go through all that trouble in the first place since the level caps are much more generous<\/a> than I thought. Wish I found that page earlier.<\/p>\n

Some other complaints would be:
\n– Unlimited Queen’s Steel unlocks far too late.
\n– The vestige scene walking speed is far too slow.
\n– The Good\/True ending doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.<\/p>\n

A mixed experience overall for sure, but an ultimate net positive I think.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
