PSII solo quests

Postby Breakdown » Thu Sep 22, 2005 11:59 pm

Hello board. I'm currently creeping up on completing a solo Rolf game in PSII. I've been keeping a log of my progress, which you can read here. Now I know this has been done before, but what I was wondering is has anybody tried to take any of the other characters through the game by their lonesome? I'd be curious to hear about it, I'm not sure if it would be impossible with anybody (the only ones I have doubts about are Amy and Nei).<p>Any thoughts/comments?<br><p>[size=small][Edit by Breakdown on [TIME]1127433669[/TIME]][/size]

I'm currently working on something similar on my GBA - I've got Rolf and Nei up to Uzo Island, but I keep getting lost.<p>I doubt if you can do it with any other character - you need to have Rolf on your team at all times, unless you keep him dead.

Well yeah, Rolf would have to be kept dead, but that's not too huge a problem. In my run I kept Nei dead from before I first crossed the bridge outside Paseo all the way up to when I was standing directly in front of Neifirst, so a dead Rolf should allow for anyone to go through solo. I don't think he has to be alive at any point in the game though, and even if he does that's nothing a stolen Moon Dew or two wouldn't fix, and his level should be low enough that killing him off again would pose no real problem.<p>There a few stumbling blocks for solos that I can see.<p>Only Rolf can wear the Magic and Mogic Caps, and I'm not sure if they work if he's dead. More a hassle than anything since you don't need it at Dezo's clone labs.<p>Rudo would need someone else to get through the Control Tower (no TP for Musik), but that's solved by a stolen Moon Dew and Rolf knowing Musik.<p>I don't know if Shir will still steal if she's the only living member of a party, but again, just a bit of hassle.<p>If attempting to go through with Nei, Rolf might need to be alive after she beats Neifirst, and I think I remember reading somewhere that if she beats Neifirst and you don't go back to the house again after the clone lab granny says she can't be revived you can keep her around, so she could (in theory) go through the rest of the game.<p>Outside of those, I don't see anything stopping any character from going it alone. Some would definitely have a harder time of it than others, but I'm pretty sure at least most of them could do it. Basically the whole reason I'm posting this here is to see if anybody else is interested in giving one or more of them a shot.

You could get Rolf and another character of choice, and let Rolf die. Then you can develop a solo adventure with any character.

Shir will steal if she's the only living member of the party, but you'll have to control a ghost party - and if you enter combat then you'll lose the game.<p>I'm seeing if I can do the Nei revive trick to play as Rolf and Nei all the way through.

A ghost party? As in an invisible party? That would be interesting to say the least.<p>Good luck getting Nei through the dams and Dezo with only Rolf to back her up. I'd think she'd prove more a hindrance than anything in the later stages. Can you still revive her at the clone lab after you've got the glitch working? If not, you better be ready for a lot of resets.<p>I'm probably gonna take a stab at Ikuto and Naval tonight with my solo. Wish me luck.<p><p>[size=small][Edit by Breakdown on [TIME]1127677508[/TIME]][/size]

Best of luck.<p>I don't think that you can use the clone labs, so I'll have to reset a lot. I'm just dreading the fact that I won't have the Visiphone...

You can have a ghost party. I've done that. Just don't enter battle.<p>Oh, and Rolf must be alive to enter his house.
