Fools Journey, Ch. 5, 5-16

My opening statement is "what the actual hell?". The clones just keep getting turns back to back, with insane range. I thought I could rush the boss down, but she just takes off after you hit her, leaving her clones behind!

Use talent abilities

Ah, this one. I think I failed the first time, but I did end up rushing to her. I used Col for her superior terrain traversal and she can attack three times with Pursuit Order. Other than that, I guess I used my other units to follow behind and knock units into the water, keep them from going after Col. She pretty much ran away as soon as Col could get some stabs in.

If I'm remembering the right battle, that's the one with the mountain and the archers and stuff about? You can use those dust bags to your advantage; break one and put a unit they like to target in it and all the echos and such will miss.

[tenshiakodo]

The problem wasn't getting the sorceress to run away, it was the fact that the clones she left behind could snipe characters from an extreme distance and got multiple actions to my one, ensuring that my characters would die before they could remove them from the board.

I'm guessing that the strategy is to get her to retreat before she spawns many clones, so I'll try that. I don't have Col, so I'll have to try this with Crimson Falcon and Pursuit Order.

I didn't have too much trouble with this one. Not to say it wasn't hard, because it was, but she managed to get out 4 clones before I had the idea to drop a meteor on top of her which made her run away. So the clones stopped coming and by using the dust bags I was able to get close and then pick them off.

[tenshiakodo]

So it turned out using teleport + pursuit order got Crimson Falcon to the Sorceress and did, in fact, scare her off before she spawned any clones. Thanks for the help!

Its to teach you to use the purple haze that gives dodge.

This is the way.

Let Samantha sit in that smoke as your team moves clockwise through the map.

I don't really like to rely on the haze, the enemy loves to set it on fire or just yoink my units out of it with push or pull effects. Plus there's some kind of glitch where my Stormbreaker's reaction attack will actually set the haze on fire (?!) and make it explode, lol. But at least I found another way to win the battle.

Clones die from one hit. Use ranged units. Clones get free attack if enemy archers attack you as well.

Any aoe attacks ignite the haze, so she might be a bad choice for this map.
