Speedrun achievement tips?

[FalcieAdam_]

I'm currently working on Eagle Eye/Treasure Hunter/Hunter simultaneously. That leaves Solo/Speedrun achievement(s). Are there any tips for the speedrun one? I will take any random info I could work with. I love this game so much

If you don't want to follow an actual guide (which will get you it with zero problem)....

-You only need to to do one character's story to get it. Just recruit four characters total and do chapters 2-4 for your first one only
-Make sure to get Evasive Maneuvers ASAP.
-Don't fight battles as much as you can help it. Do concentrated grinding efforts in bursts
-Don't underestimate the power of Hired Help and Soulstones
-Buffs and debuffs even more so.
-Easiest is probably to start with Tressa and do her story. Going along with the Hired Help adivce above, having two merchants at once is by far the quickest way to decimate bosses but does cost a lot of money, and without knowing where good quick money sources are isn't the best way....but even so.

I skimmed through some guides and there is too much information to process at once. Instead, I decided to write down some key points ( thanks for the tips btw ) and focused on solo-speedruns on trissa.

I'm keeping other stuff in mind, like cait spawns, glitches ( not a fan ) and total gold required for the speedrun.

You can just Youtube a video and copy it. Just search "Octopath X Character Speedrun" or something. Pause every so often and copy what they do.

Or you could actually not weste your time and follow a proper guide, if you're going to go all in

Sorry that my advice wasn't satisfying, but there's no need to be rude. I assumed from your line "I will take any random info I could work with" that you were willing to take any advice, and that was the common thing I saw people say they did to complete the challenge.

That is VERY HELPFUL! It matches some of the notes I wrote down. Thanks again :)
