Go directly to old lumiere if you dont want to one shot the final boss, if you did all character quests final boss will be a cake walk already, but at least you wont one shot it.

♥♥♥♥ well.. tbh i wouldnt mind one shottin him lol
Relationships are really all you need to do before finale. There IS other 'story' stuff elsewhere, but doing any of it is really going to level you more than you'd like. Unless you don't want the story to be a challenge at all.
I would say it depends...

do you want to experience all of the story? Then 100% do Maelle's relationship quest, Lune's as well and you may want to pay a visit to Renoir's drafts and before that the Flying Manor (it's up in the sky, as the name implies).

If you do not want to be overpowered when doing the final missions then you'd better do all these things after the endgame, you will be transported back to a moment right before you start the final missions.

To me it would have felt odd to find all the other story bits after the ending. The ending is kind of literally an end to it all... you do not play on, you are teleported back in time really.

So ultimately... think about who you are as a gamer... do you want to see all of the story, including some good side content? Then absolutely do that before you do the final mission! Or do you want to have a real challenge when you fight the final boss? Then do all the optional bits afterwards.

If you done any sidequests then the story boss will be a cake walk. I’ve done only max relationship ones what let me upgrade Maelles purple sword to lvl20. Her sword is bugged and do 2.5x more damage than it should with all perks unlocked. I two shot the story boss.

yea i dont mind, these optional areas r tough as hell. i rather get the whole story than a tough final boss.

so flying manor, then renoirs drafts? then final boss?

i use her flame weapon, berulem, since i dont feel a strong need to rely on glitches to beat games.

tho i mite upgrade it to 20 for these end game areas. these regular ass enemy fights take forever, millions of hp each lol. not even bosses.

In terms of story bits I would say do this in the following order...

1. Maelle's relationship quest (by far the most important bit you can do in Act 3 before the final mission)
2. Lune's and Monoco's quests - while optional and not about the family or the main story still add some nice details to their characters, I would not skip it
3. Flying Manor
4. Renoir's Drafts

The Drafts have possibly the hardest boss in the game, just be aware of that.

If you want to do the drafts I would suggest visiting the Endless Tower before that. Maybe even before you go to the Flying Manor. You do get a tiny tidbit as far as story is concerned, but primarily a 33 wave fighting arena that can grant you a lot of XP and makes you strong enough to face whatever terror is waiting for you in Renoir's Drafts.

Also, fight optional bosses in the sky or in the water for useful pictos.

You will be severely overpowered for the final mission then, but I think this final mission is more about the story itself and not about the fight really anyway. So it does not matter all that much if you are very powerful.

Generally if you have to ask about numbers in this game, the answer is almost always 33 lol.

Not sure, but my guess is 33 total fights.
