Well it seems that NG+ is required for Baguette Weapons, since you would need at least 8 festival token total. (3 for NG reward, and 5 for baguettes) Except if there is a duplication Glitch for them
I'll probably work on an excel sheet or some kind of document with everything you have to do, and share it at least here because with how much stuff there is, I'll surely miss things.
And the ressources I've found so far on the internet are not absolutely reliable from what I Saw.
I'll probably route the game with expert mode in mind, if I'm going for 100% I'll at least take the highest difficulty ahah
Yeah I think a separation between 100% NG and %100 NG+ si necessary.
It also question me about the early pictos and weapon, should we care only about max level pictos, or collecting every one of them from pickups, ennemies or merchant ?
Same question for merchant, is it necessary to buy everything they have to offer ?
For both question I don't think it would be something easy to track when verifying the run
Thank you for your feedback, I too enjoy long runs but also the routing/theorycrafting
The time sink just for the sake of having big numbers is my main concern in the end, I'm not against doing a 9 hours run, but not with 3 hours of braindead farming
Max level is easily doable with minimal farming at the tower or the zone before the abyss, and if you're good enough, +20% exp for no damage help a lot
For Pictos I still have to grasp exactly how you can obtain all of them, because there is those laying around, but for those you can loot from ennemies ? Is it a pool of loot, is it that you have to beat this ennemy one time ? Because if everything concerning them is fixed, then there is no reason for me not to include them I guess, max level is 33 and could be obtainable in just one NG+ run ?
Weapon is the same issue as Pictos, and farm of upgrade material but shop seems to have enough material
And Lumina ... that's for me the most intersting point, I've not tested it myself, but it does not seems that there is a cap. I've read that the most Lumina you need to activate everything is 1730, but is farming 8650 of them interesting ? I don't think so.
In the end everything beside lumina seems fine ?
The tracking and proof of almost everything seems fine, Relationship level is tricky but can be tracked with Gradient abilities, Manor require a full visit of it at the end and the remaining can be checked from menu ? (I don't know if I missed something)
The most tricky part of the run, at face value seems to be Cléa reward. If my memories are correct, you only get one of the three reward from beating her ? Then it would mean you have to speedrun up to NG+1 to get all three ?
If someone were to do a route for 100%, what should be took into account ?
Expedition Journals, Wardrobe, Max Relation with the team, Unlock full Manor, Lost Gestral Childs are for sure I would say
But what about Max Level, Pictos, Weapon and Lumina ?
Yeah it's like a 100% category, if nobody is willing to throw themself at routing it, and suffering which would result, there is no point in creating the category.
But with how young the Game is, there is already a lot of work on any% to do, but I like suffering
I would like to see them added too, I don't know if we'll be a lot to race on this new version. On my side I did All Chapters Suffering, but I'll give a shot at beating your time on Philosopher's Stone Classic run !
I agree with the rule of a 60 FPS limit. The runner will have to show their settings before the start of the run I guess and activate "show FPS" ?
Actually, there is a Discord server for the game, but If I'm not wrong you already found it too since I saw your run there ^^
If anyone is searchinf for it, here is the link :
