ASTLIBRA Revision: All Encounters/Bosses Impossible Difficulty No Damage (5 LvL + No Growth)

[@Taruby]

Just completed this game, and watching you to see how a pro was supposed to handle some of these bosses. What impressed me the most-other than your endurance to clear the boring slog known as the 1st boss within 7 minutes-is how you seemingly managed to practically never trigger or deliberately use shield bash. A testament to the fact the developers should've given the players the option to turn that bloody thing off. Even after I found the ability that removed its horizontal movement, sometimes that thing still triggers in the air and leads to me sliding everywhere. You certainly have nerves of steel.

Thank you! I understand perfectly what you mean. I have found myself in situations many times where these abilities only got in the way. Looks like the only way to disable shield bash is to not use the shield at all lol.

Very impressive, watched from start to finish with pleasure. Cheers. 😁

I know that there will be someone who use The Music Box of Courage to prevent exp gain and imitate Castlevania OoE Max Level 1 run. I am however not masochist enough to do such challenge. You don't even use growth at all. Well done, Oleg. Well Done! 👍

Great work! Might I ask which boss' moveset gave you the most trouble until you got it down?

[@olegbagration8231]

Thanx! Anulis was the worst if I remember correctly. Her spheres simply appear randomly, and can also appear on you. I don't know, the game isn't particularly difficult, so...

Very impressive! Would love to see a full walktrough on impossible difficulty lvl5!

[@olegbagration8231]

Thank you. Nah, The game is too big and with a huge amount of grind. In addition, some bosses took me several hours.

​@@gh0stf4cek87It was a long time ago, I don’t remember much. Best equipment for agility and attack + all offensive skills. And best Libra items atm of course. Grinding is the worst thing in this kind of playthrough.

Doing the run myself, I'm realizing you stick a lot with the little hammer gotten in Chapter 4 and Gun Hammer for the mid game, when I got the hammer I figure out why it's attack value is higher while being lighter than most weapon, but trying myself and comparing with your fights it seems, going with Slower Weapon but with the corresponding elemental weakness of the boss you're facing result in a faster fight, like for Meldine's Second Phase I did it with the last Sword you get in Chapter 4, which is very heavy but Fire Elemental, using Jump Slash, Sky Sword and Armor Slash to mitigeate the heavy issue and it ends up being faster than using the hammer and Gun Hammer. Overall I also think you neglect Sky Sword a lot, it's actually a really good move for this challenge, only the start up of the move is impacted by weapon's weight the rest of the animation is the same speed, and has a result it does a lot of hits, even better you can actually initiate you next action in the middle of the throw, I find it particulary great using the Sky Sword and then initiate a Jump Slash while the Sky Sword is going which result in a very good burst of damage.

Attaboy. How is the damage so high?

[@olegbagration8231]

Best atm equipment on agi and atk + every offencive skill. And best LIBRA items of course. Everything is easy in the postgame, you can upgrade and farm more stats for your equipment there.

@@wing19981118 I just spent all my resources in the indgame on a katana, and pumped it up along the way. A little over 5к attack power came out by the end of the game. My stats at 3:10:15.

Will the game be translated into languages other than English, Chinese and Japanese?
