Sorry for not updating this very often, im not playing much.

Shiva went down against my awesome power (level 23) and liquidflame went down (level 24)

ATM i have left the fire ship after defeating liquidfllame (aparantley you can do that) and have saved. I need to learn the Blue mage skill "learning" before i do the karnak escape mission. I really need to learn "doomclaw" from ironclaw before i leave. Doomclaw also paralyses so i need to grab the ribbon on the way out and use a bare class fighter with a learning skill and ribbon equipped to survive it without being KO'd from being reduced to single digit HP and being paralysed.

It seems pretty easy but that is because of the mass levelling up i had to do to survive Karl boss. Shiva was a little challenging but nothing i couldn't handle. Garula was so easy. A Protes spell to protect from his physicals and then inflicted most damage from counter attacking. Liquidflame dies in three hit from having ice2 cast on a sword which did over 1000HP damage a shot. I could even have made that easier by learning 2-handed, but it didn't matter because even with all the missed attacks (high eveade rate that bugger) i still disposed of him quickly. But the super challengers will come later. Like i said before, Archeoavis and Atamos may prove to be very tough. The elderly tree boss is normally a tough one, but i'm sure he won't prove too difficult. X-death who casts Condemn at the start of the battle may be tough because i will have to defeat him before the countdown reaches zero. Bahamut might (MIGHT) be tough but i havn't decided yet whether or not im worried about him.

I am going to have to raise another character from his base level, and it will have to be Galuf. He will fight one on one with Gilgamesh and later krile will fight Omniscient. So long as every battle is fought with only a single character, then it shouldn't matter who that character is.

So far, the most annoying thing has been the enemies which confuse you. I have been favoring the Monk class and have learned HP+10% with it already. The kick attack has been my best friend. So when i become confused, i kill myself with my first attack. Random battles may prove to be more challenging than the bosses. I can be outnumbered 5 to 1 in a random encounter, and if that's a back attack, i'm pretty much screwed. I have died at least 4 times from back attacks. That's why i stick with my Monk class, he has high HP and inflicts a decent amount of damage on all enemies with his Kick attack. But i know that won't help me much as i progress through the game. I'll have to see how it goes. I know i'm not giving up easy though
