Part 175: Titan's Rampage

Summoner Solo Challenge Part 5 - Titan's Rampage

Before we leave to the Second World, Lenna goes to the town of Lix to pick up a supply of Ethers. Also, with titan, I will be sticking with the Main Gauche and Elven Cape combination to increase Lenna's survivability against Physical Attacks.

Once entering Galuf's world, they find they are stranded out on a island. Once they sleep in a tent, they are ambushed by an Abductor, who kidnaps Bartz and Faris before going after Lenna. Lenna easily dispatches the abductor, before being knocked out.

Galuf, learning that the party was captured, goes to save them. Breaking into Exdeath's Castle, Galuf retrieves the crystals to-


Huh, looks like Lenna already escaped. And Knocked out Galuf. And is Carrying a Knocked Bartz. That's Odd.

(Ok, to be serious here for a moment, a side effect of the Hack that switched Lenna's and Bartz's sprites mean they are both always in the party.)

Lenna Rushes down to the Dungeon to save Faris before encountering Gilgamesh, a Warrior that serves under Exdeath.

The main goal in this battle is to get Gilgamesh below 10000 health. Guess how Lenna does it.



Galuf steals the credit for saving Faris, and the party begins it's escape back to the other end of the Big Bridge. Along the way, Lenna fights Gilgamesh for real.

This battle, unlike the last, can present a minor challenge to Lenna, mostly if he chooses to use the Fight and Critical attacks rather than Goblin Punch, Aero 2, and Wind Slash.

The other part of him that could have tripped up Lenna was his Reaction for when he drops below 2500 health, where he reduces the damage Lenna deals to him in half and doubles his speed, giving him on average three action for every one that Lenna could do. However, in this phase he also has the spell Electric Shock, which is a 20 Magic Power skill that Lenna mostly can resist damage from. He uses it extremely often during this phase of the fight, giving Lenna more than enough leverage to Titan him to Death.

Even though Lenna manages to defeat Gilgamesh, before the party could escape the radius of the Barrier it activated, flinging them far from Galuf's Army. In Regole, a town on the Northeastern Continent, Lenna finds something that makes Titan even more powerful. That marks an end of challenge from the random encounters for the first half of Galuf's world.


The Gaia Gear grants a 50% boost in damage for Earth Elemental Damage. Added to Titan, makes Gaia's Blessing have a base power of 165. This get's slapped onto Lenna and will probably stay there for the remainder of the Second World.

While traveling and looking for a method of transportation that they could use to return to Galuf's Kingdom, they encounter a Moogle. Terrified of Lenna, the Moogle flees into a hole full of monsters. Following it, they see that it is being attacked by a skeletal monstrosity.

code:

NAME: Tyrannosaur

If he was fought properly, Lenna would barely have a difficult time dealing with Tyrannosaur, as he is essentially is the same as Gilgamesh when he was fought on the bridge, except with a elemental weakness and without the permanent Shell buff once he drops below 2500 health.

Instead of respecting him like that, Lenna just uses a phoenix down on him (note the lack of the "Heavy" tag on him, which would grant him immunity to this) and moves on.

Saving the moogle turned out to be a good idea, as all Moogles are mutually telepathic. This allows them to return to Galuf's castle, only to learn from Krile that the Wind Drake that saved them had become sick through over-exertion. They decide to head to the mountain to the north to search for Dragon Grass. On their way out of Galuf's castle, they encounter another Abductor.

code:

NAME: Abductor (Val Castle)

This fight was surprisingly difficult for Lenna, mostly due to the Vampire ability that abductor possessed. If it was used against Lenna after 2 castings of Ramuh then it would instantly kill her. Fortunately, Lenna gets lucky the third attempt and downs the true Abductor.

Having downed the attacking Abductors, Lenna and the party move north towards Drakenvale to search for Dragon grass. along the way, in Quelb, Bartz manages to manhandle a Werewolf as a corpse.

Once reaching Drakenvale, Lenna begins her ascent up the Mountain, and along the way encounters a Rock Monster.



The incident is odd enough, but the, Lenna encounters the monster being attacked by other Monsters. Detecting a kind soul under that Rocky Interior, Lenna goes to the creature's defence, Summoning Ifrit twice and then downing the Undead Dragon with a Hi-Potion. As thanks Golem joins her in her adventures.



Golem, for 18 MP, creates a (20 + Summoner Level) * 50 Wall that protects the entire party from Physical Damage. At Lenna's current level of 36, this is 2800 damage, which is equivalent to 3-4 attacks. Gilgamesh with this spell would have been even more of a guaranteed win.

Finally, Lenna finds the Dragon Grass, but is attacked when she attempts to get it.
