I never had an issue with it. Beat it the first try. All the knight fights in the second one were too easy.

What's really bullshyt is the last boss fight in the finale chapter of game 2 is a series of 5 fights and in one of them you have to use party members you normally don't use. I mean you can break your team up and spread them out but you need decent equipment for everybody. I usually didn't use Jusis, Machias, Millium, and Gaius.

My normal party is Alisa, Rean, Laura, and Fie with Emma and Elliot as reserves rotated in for extra healing when Alisa can't which is almost never. Alisa, Fie, and Laura are some really broken characters. Alisa is a walking CP battery for everyone. Fie at 100% eva can't really be touched and Laura is a boss slayer. The boss fight I had to use my non-regulars was the hardest fight I had in the game next to the first of that series.

Not enough CP to finish the fight, dude always has 10% of his health level unless you get silly lucky. I know if I do it ten more times I'll win it but what an awful way to finish the game.

Do levels matter for this? I assume not? What level were you when you finished the game @winb83 ? I'm like 68.

I was the same level.

Just find that weak spot early, when he gets into stances gamble when you can - otherwise use CP to get that guaranteed miss/counter

took me 2 tries because i tried to strong arm it

I really hope we can end up getting those Crossbell games because they're deeply intertwined with what happens towards the end of Cold Steel I and all of II. It kinda sucks seeing the aftermath of the end game of the Crossbell games in Cold Steel II and not really having a good idea of what 's happening or who certain characters are.

I guess it isn't all bad because I hear that the Crossbell games spoil Cold Steel more than it spoils them.

That was normal though?

I've died to him fifteen or so times now, can't get beyond the final 5-10% of his health and he has an s-link that does almost half your health. I mean really, fukk this fight.

Yeah. You know you can unbalance him too to interrupt some of his bigger attacks right?

Honestly the two unbalance attacks are worthless, 30% and 50% with little damage isn't worth the CP cost. The buff is the way to go, with, of course, a big dose of luck.
