I think my favorite thing about this series is that it's forced you to engage with all the systems of this game at a level which I dont think any other player has ever engaged with them before. Not only are you learning lots of things about this game that you never would have known otherwise, you're teaching us as well. These are things the average player doesn't need and will probably mostly ignore, but the fact that they're there has allowed you to continue on your journey.

Good lord I do it with Blue Mage but you're doing it with WAR. Absolute GOAT. Might be more fun to tease your chat and friends and such... and we can't prove it...

I still remember soloing this as WHM for the Heavensward relic at level 80. Of course, I had level 80 gear and being level 80 made the epic echo way stronger, but fishing for Afflatus Misery crits in that small window where you can really damage the adds is relatable. On that note, two more levels on Reaper and this would have required significantly fewer optimizations, but solo leveling 20 levels above the expansion would probably take an equally long time... and be way more boring for everyone involved.

Seeing how far we have come and seeing what’s ahead of us I wonder if the palace grind would have been better considering the dps check we on now at acian prime

I just wanted to say that the item you got from the chest you can’t craft with, the Pneumite, is used for Relic Weapon crafting for the heavensward relics!

An HOUR of the funny solo man? Boy was it worth the wait since last episode
@alex71079 ай бұрын
its really fun to see this play out! Also, one thing i wonder how much of a difference it would’ve made is that if you skipped reaper buff on the sanuwa when they werent tethered you actually would’ve gained a small amount of potency. Only mentioning it as how close the check was

I came across this series like 2 weeks ago and at this point it's more exciting than the actual Solo Leveling anime

I’d like to take this chance to formally apologize for saying “oh I feel like bismark won’t be as bad” after you beat ravana. But seriously those streams were a wild time, you deserved that win! And excellent job with the video as always ouo)/

I'm sure someone mentioned it at some point but unless I'm mistaken the Pneumite you got is for the HSW relics. I was also thinking there was a knockback after the add phase on Bismark but either that was no problem or it's an EX-only thing lol.

I was really interested in the part about optimizing your Reaper rotation for the Sanuwas. It was HILARIOUS when you banned Shenpai!
