Happy Octopath Traveler 0 release day! Here is fat Stia feat. my protagonist!

Our Guy (not godtiered), He went to His um Planet World Queen Denizen, Nix and asked for guidance, and She like um told him (very. straightforwardly. (Im jealous because My Stupid Guy only speaks in stupid fuvking riddles) to help one of those um four Black Chess Guys, the "Little One Who Likes To Dance" with something. It doesn't matter with what tho um, because of course He didnt (He could easily do that tho Hes stupidly picky and helps only Those that "He Can Read" or whatever, it's like His fuvking thing) and the um Other Three Chess Dudes died, because of that.

Anyway um long story short our Blood Prince Guy (godtiered), Shes "friends" with Chess Guys and because of that Picky Guy and Blood Guy had an argument and yada yada BOOM Picky Guy is dead (thanks for nothing), Prince Guy is HELLA mad and "The Little Chess Guy" got the fuvking Black Queens ring thing and um like… Other Froggernet Guys have some "guides" for that, but like most of them are garbage fuvking jokes (because ha ha Funny Little Guy). He and the Prince are NO. JOKE. NOW. Please help,,, We only have one godtiered Guy left, a Heart Page Guy, who was Picky Nothing Guys Partner and They are really um… sad lets say ha…ha.

Please, what are the Little Guys weaknesses (um do not worry about the prototypings, We know what powers He should have etc, We only need info about The Guy) and what can We do to stop the Prince (I know You don't know Her, but like maybe it's like a um common thing with Princes?? idk???)

Oh God. I know what you're talking about- CD right? Yeah, don't underestimate him. He has like a billion bombs and slight Doom affinity, so if you have an anti-Doom weapon or something with enough Life charge that might help. He is Suuuuuuupper unpredictable- I think he's a Bard? So the most effective strats are to either calm him down or turn the chaos in your favor. Unless you have a high-level Mind player or something, you won't be able to stop the chaos, so just focus on going with the flow. Don't try to overthink it, but do try to keep your limits intact. Remember that fleeing is strategic sometimes and that you can't fight this guy forever. However, he has lower health than the other Derse Agents, so shouldn't take As Much hits to take down. Compared to other Ringbearers of course. Oh, and don't forget about the bombs! Explosion Protection Equipment will be essential, as well as stuff to put out fires. Things will get messy quick, and he's fast, so try to put out the fires and not only focus on CD. You need to remember that only targeting him will end in failure. But don't let him outlast you- or else there will be too much fire. He has energy for days, so pace yourself and try to corner him where he can't take control of the arena. That's difficult with the bombs, but that's just something you will have to deal with.

As for the Prince, that is actually something I can help with! Their playstyle/powers are pretty well defined, and although I can't predict how they will use them, I can at least tell you what they are. Princes focus on Execution- or single-target attacks. They do a lot of damage, but not a lot of spread attacks. They'll probably only focus on one of you at a time, so that's a plus! Blood Is a bit more vauge, and I'm not really the best with it, but I do know that they like talking. They will at least try to convince you to give up or doubt your intentions. Don't fall for it! Strike 'em while they monolouge! Or, given the Page of Heart, you have a pretty decent chance to convince 'em to have a change of heart. So maybe focus on that? Killing a friend is always hard, and to be avoided if possible. Of course, it is not always possible, so If they are really stubborn, don't hesitate. You have all the time to regret it later, but focus on what will help the most people. Good luck. You'll need it.
