PS2 - Shadow Hearts: From the New World Part 35 - End Game Side-Quest Roundup pt.2

RetroPlay: Video Game Walkthroughs Shadow Hearts: From the New World by: OmegaSion The party continues their preparations for their assault on the Gate. One thing I forgot to mention in my last video: The vending machine behind Roger in Roswell has been updated and now carries Hit and Strike Area Expands, albeit a bit expensive (5000 and 20,000 each), since we're getting our character's best weapons and armor I'd suggest picking some up with the extra money you have. First off we'll be doing Mao's final scene for her movie. This guy can be a pain, however if you equip Blood Loss on Mao, and buff her defense up as much as you can, you can take him down in two turns. On the first turn use a Double since all his attacks will take your stock gauge down, and make sure you remove his stock. If Blood Loss takes effect he will almost always use Energy Charge, this is why you need to be sure to take his stock gauge down cause he will wreck your face if you don't. On your next turn, just use Cat Touch or Hail Exceed to finish him off (or another double if you have the stock to be certain you take him down). Your reward is Mao's final skill: Sake Cup Purge, another very powerful attack skill. We aren't exactly done with Cat Coins, however. There's one final thing we need coins for, and we need 25 of each of them for it. I'll deal with it later on. Next up, back to Arkham. Lovecraft has a new batch of Pit Fights for you to take on; rhankfully, only two this time. The first puts you in a party of four, with Frank being a manditory member. You have to win three fights, each within three minutes. The enemies will only take damage while in the air, and you have to defeat at least one of them with the Combo Magic Holy Pulse. It's actually not that difficult, the first simply use a normal combo ending with Holy Pulse. The second fight, use Double Combos to take the two baddies down. Then on the final battle, take out the Alyosh and the Blupe and Ledopes can be dealt with without the need to use a High Angle attack. The next challenge your limited to just Johnny and Shania. You'll have to keep them in Panic status, and win four battles without either of them being KOed. This may sound tough, but actually it's just a quick way to show how Johnny and Shania are over-powered when they are on a team. Have both of them equipped with a Flare Brooch, then simply combo with Shania using Thunderbird's Gathering skill and Johnny Doubling with his Awaken ability to wipe the enemy out. With those out of the way, I'll finally delve into these optional dungeons that I've been unlocking the past two videos. So in the next segment, we'll be taking on the Doll House.
