Octopath Traveler 2 - How to get the Forbidden Blade (Devourer of Dreams Boss Strategy)

[@NnLiMedia]

Welcome everyone to the first step in our Octopath Traveler 2 adventure! Hoping to showcase some builds and boss guides in the coming weeks, as well as sharing some weapon locations so we can be ready for whatever this mew continent has in store for us! WE MOVE!

[@Mr_N8o]

Welcome back to the OT grind! I'm looking forward to the vids, I feel like buildcrafting will be much more in-depth this time around, so there should be tons of content!

[@Boulder7685]

So happy to have Octopath Traveler content from you again, and so ready to devour this game, just like the first!

[@1wayroad935]

Throne Best Girl

[@ShawnMadeInUSA]

I have Throne main character too!

[@jasonstimson6617]

Cassti the strongest character in the game though

[@hobbyphotograph9415]

Your octopath traveler content was legendary, good to have you back for this one!

[@countryboyred]

More octopath content please, I want to break this game and get all the good weapons as early as possible!

[@cyb3rrazorcut]

I did this without Patritio, but the Merchant job on Osvald

[@bobdazzler7923]

This worked for me. Thank you for sharing

[@MegaTron-t7t]

thank you. this worked very well. I had Temenos have the merchant as a secondary job and used the for hire skill two times in a row with Partitio. Thanks again!!!

[@tommyb9821]

Man I'm soooo glad you're uploading Octopath 2 content. Was thanks to you I was able to defeat Galdera 🤘

[@declantan5267]

For those asking (as I did), the beastling is NOT someone you have to hire with your merchant path skill. Rather, you already have it for hire as part of the 'Hired Help' skill

[@Myst910]

Welcome back! Loved your octopath traveler content from the 1st game and I can’t wait to see what you put out for the 2nd one! This games is fantastic!

[@ASAINsensation]

glad to see you again! Excited for your octopath content!

[@amytheshihtzumom]

Thanks for the vid. It was just what I was looking for, and I think it’s going to be very helpful.

[@The_Bi-polar_Express]

I'm level 34 and I found the armsmaster job and 4 legendary weapons so far :)

[@papapatz]

Glad to see you again! I watched all of your Octopath Traveler guides so I'm excited to see your videos soon. ❤️

[@mason8241]

Dude! I’m glad your video popped up on my feed. Your videos were invaluable to me back during Octopath 1 days and I loved your calming presence teaching me how to truly finish the game. I subbed back then but haven’t seen you! I’m excited to see all of your Octo2 content! Hope you’re well 😊

[@TIMinator9001]

I love your octopath content, i hope you will make a lot more videos on this game in the future.

[@fuminocchi4533]

thank you!

[@PinkoKane]

I'm 1/2 through my 1st playthrough. Never ONCE have I paid attention to the turn order. I grew up in the 80s, so I just go off of speed stats. Seems like cheating to be able to plan that far ahead. That being said....I will now do so.

[@kirindas4691]

Thank you for the guide!

[@michaeltsang1748]

Excellent work. I did this boss with Castti at lv 52 and my party at 38-39. All it took was a couple of debuffs from Throne, auber's blessing, and drastic measures with extra damage. I laughed when that happened. I'm curious about what else this boss does.

[@eprohoda]

that i unusual ~peace out- companion.

[@cool_chemist7644]

If you're just going to flee from every battle, you might as well do it during the day. You'll face less encounters.

[@bernardosanchez3401]

if anyone cares, wants to try it, this guy is capturable with a Hunter, on red health with max capture my chances where around 5%, lmao so good luck. Honestly the strat would be the same: 1. Corrosive armor. 2. Break 3. Max Hired Help into Warriors (that will inmediately bring him into red health). 4. Max capture into spin the wheel, good luck. If you don't capture it chances are you'll probably die since on red health it will spam his "ultimate attack" (800 damage + nasty status aliments)

[@RaidenKaiser]

I swear blessing on disguise was made just for throne, all the good weapons that are edgy that fit her have negative stats meant to be reversed and turned into speed and dodge buffs haha.

[@michaelg.9962]

HE"S BACK

[@BachiraMeguruZ]

Pretty sure there was like a +500 sword with -100 physical defense. Iirc it was found in Stormhail?

[@NnLiMedia]

I’d have to check it out! That sounds like it’d pair well with the Blessing in Disguise from the Water Spirit dungeon. I really wish there was a feature that showed where you found items ingame.

[@BachiraMeguruZ]

@@NnLiMedia just checked its +383 and i think i stole it from someone at Stormhail

[@JohnThaDreamer]

@@NnLiMedia - I just got the Blessing in Disguise last night. I am going to run back by stores today that had weapons I passed on. Also, I am going to use your Level Up method. I just watched your video not too long ago. Thank you for the content.

[@Matthias-pj6th]

Not sure how far you're in the game so be warned of Spoilers! The strongest Sword in Octopath Traveler 2 in terms of raw Physical Attack is the Blade of the Conqueror which has +200 Phys Atk and another +250 Phys Atk against a Broken target for a total of +450. The way you get the Blade of the Conqueror is somewhat obtuse: First you have to go to the Blacksmith in Orerush and Buy/Steal/Allure the Pickaxe from the NPC there, then you have to go to Winterbloom and give the Pickaxe to the woman next to the Sword in the Stone, she'll break it and then give you the Rusted Sword in exchange, then you have to bring the Rusted Sword to an NPC in Gravel who will repair it into the Sword of the Conqueror (And will also give you the Armsmaster Job if that was the first Rusted Weapon you brought them)

[@DadVidyaGAMER]

You can also simply pull the sword out your self and get the trophy for Octopath Traveler by having a party of 4 and 4 companions / summons. So Ochette, Agnea, Temenos, and Partitio. This also gives you a separate scene and what I honestly did intuitively. The lady literally talks about not enough hands and all I see is this approach you suggested copy pasted everywhere. Guess it's a back up solution :p

[@Knucklebreaking]

The best sword I've seen so far is keepsake

[@noobicorn_gamer]

You’ll find 400+ weapons down the road one being the Serpent Sword. Considering this vid was uploaded 4 days ago I assume you already got some

[@785paris]

I got it. Pretty tense.

[@Galahadyt83]

How do you get all support skills of other jobs/advance jobs for all characters? do you equip them to each of them?

[@Mike-rs6sd]

Where do you find the beastling?

[@babahyagah7451]

Where did you hire the beastling?

[@thatanonwholurksmoar7386]

_laughs in Serpent Slayer_

[@ecsancho]

Where do you get the beastlings summon at? How do you get the buffs at the start of the battle?

[@TheSexyFunTimes]

Beastlings is hired help merchant skill, the buffs are from throne at night.

[@mitchgodman]

Throne being in your party gives you random buffs when you start combat at night.

[@DIRTYSOUTHSHINOBI]

Bro I destroyed this boss in 6 turns... if you come in here with the Armmasters class this shit is cake walk

[@minarc3682]

So many games, so little time. if I get to play ot2 someday I’ll come back to thissss ❤

[@Asher89leo]

I ve been enjoying octopath traveler so much. I love the merchant. Got my arm master all arms and skills because of him. I was able to defeat the bosses at level 20s lol. And because of money. And running enemies.

[@Bobo_mo_Bro]

thank you! i had Hikari on stand by mode because i couldn't find any good sword for him lol

[@countryboyred]

Is this possible without Aelfric’s blessing?

[@unstoppableforcevsimmovabl1701]

Why would you use this? It buff enemy

[@spurensucher234]

how I can see hp on ps5?

[@Ziaurelijus]

Shark boss gave me 30% stronger sword (it was drop)

[@looots1320]

but the Vengeful knife is better...

[@kiriu6408]

How did u farm so much JP that fast I’m a higher level and u have more skills than me lol

[@cavsfightingroom3692]

catch a golem and easy farming in 45+ spots

[@NnLiMedia]

I always use Hired Beastlings whenever a Octopuff or Cait Sith appears. They’re not terribly frequent, but it’s a nice boost. Otherwise I just focus on taking down the stories whenever I can. May make a farming video later this week!

[@drakemane]

@@cavsfightingroom3692 Which golem if i may ask?

[@JohnThaDreamer]

@@drakemane - Light Revenant. Go to the cave right above Ochette's hometown.

[@arch1eviathan216]

17m is too long to explain how to get one item.

[@bolt6572]

Pay 2 Win basically
