Xordfighting

At the bottom of the pit we meet Xord and an awesome boss battle. It took 4 attempts to beat him. Nice to finally have a battle where the party guage and chain attacks were vital. It was disappointing but relieving that it only needed one successful chain to knock off enough hp to trigger the cutscene.

We can change the future, together.

This is the Pits

Wow. A long stroll down the Central Pit, taking out a lot of Mechon on the way. Those two M84s looked scarier than they turned out to be. Great fun.

Before that I had to navigate the mine tunnels. That was harder as I ran into too many enemies all at once, and was overwhelmed.

The Pit is very impressive in its sheer size. Killing an airborne Mechon then finding the resultant treasure chest a few floors down was nice, proving the whole area was one whole.

I've collected a lot of ether now but not got anything all that useful from gemcrafting. I have plenty of gems already.

I have completed my Ether Mine collectopaedia page, which is nice.
