Some quick and dirty calculations from before the addition of Core Connection:
(Assault Bow: 600 Base Damage, +1 Dice = 601 Total Damage
Anti Demon Tank: 2,000 Base Resilience, No Dice, -1,500 Juggernaut = 500 Damage Reduction
Anti Demon Tank takes 101 Total End Damage)
Or, in other words: her bow can punch through tank armor. And that's before you add in the buffs she's gotten from both Nepgear and Samael.

One arrow, at sufficient velocity

Then add in the way her Zone Blast works - wrapping the spell around the arrow itself, thus letting her add the damage from the arrow to the spell - and then it just starts to get unfair.

So does anyone want to hazard a guess as to who we'll be facing in this update?
Personally, I think it will be Grey Champion, since she's a former number 4.

well the Radiances are pretty clearly double-boss material, and the courtyard with two folks is on the other side, so that leaves Grey Champion or White Soul. Considering White Sould smacks of "final boss", yeah, probably GC.
We haven't actually seen Zone Blast yet, and I've been wondering what it does
Can't really try to figure out which spells can sync up when we don't know what they do!

Thankfully, since we most likely don't have anyone who completely neutralizes her like Gabriel and Michael do Silver Hero, we're probably going to get a lot more XP from Grey! Always a good thing in my opinion.

To give you guys a heads up, Grey isn't going to be easy.
Mooks and positioned where she can hit anywhere in the courtyard with a given attack. She's also learned how to fire her spells off without incanting their names, and her primary attack is a sound-based wave. (That thankfully doesn't act like normal sound.) It allows her to hit things at ridiculous ranges.
She can also rapidly refill her HP bar at will.
... You know, it just dawned on me that a lot of the up coming boss fights are made easier by the whole Seal thing.
And by how high Nepgear's Health will be by the time we reach those fights. When you've got a million Health and our passive defenses, "bum rush while activating Core Purge" is a highly effective strategy unless your target is faster than you, has something like Scale to Target hax, or has an Overwhelming Presence.

Well...that's fairly impressive! I can't wait to see her in action.
Yeah, they kind of are. If nothing else, be thankful that Team SLAYER, either just the currently revealed members or the hypothetical full team wasn't brought along. Assuming the damage done and healed by PoL stacks additively, the seals would be taking at least 2,000 damage per turn. We'd take out everyone in 3 turns!

Shit, now I'm trying to think of what song I want playing during her fight.
These all go well with any epic boss fight (despite some of them being extremely non-standard)
Promised Pain
You Will Know Our Names
EXEC_PAJA
Victory Road

Definitely using this one, though not on Grey sadly.
Heh. That franchise has tons of great, yet non-standard music. Comes with the territory of making your entire world be designed around song-based magitek.

Anyway-
Boss fight this update! So get your thinking caps on. Let me toss up the data sheets before people start voting.
Boss fight this update! So get your thinking caps on. Let me toss up the data sheets before people start voting.
Plan A: Use Nepshield as blocking device. She's gotta get used to getting hit so she'll stop getting K.O'ed so often.
Plan B: Use NepSpear as a weapon, she's like unbreakable and thus a great weapon.
Plan C: Use Nep-Aura auto win boss fight via wrecking seal.
Plan D: Whattya mean those aren't plans?!
Plan Z: Accept being 10~ XP short of buying what LM wants.
So......quick question. Its currently a bit past midnight here. Should I expect an update fairly soonish (next hour or so), or should I go to bed and read tomorrow?

I'm done proofreading, Crys just needs to make the corrections and post it.
Can't. No Sega.

Ar Tonelico and Surge Concerto songs are great. Something for every occasion, even if most of the time you can't always match the lyrics of the song to the occasion.
Here's a few of my favorites from Ar Tonelico:
EXEC_Z/.: Has plenty of energy, great for a battle.
EXEC_over.METHOD_SUBLIMATION/.~ee wassa sos yehar: When the villain hates you and everything else in the world with a mad passion, this is your pick.
XaaaCi: For when shit is going down, God decided to kill you and everybody else and it's up to you to Save Everything, accept no substitutes.
EXEC_CUTYPUMP/.: Wait, what?!
And now a couple from Surge Concerto:
Class::XIO PROCEED; For those fast paced battles with something very important on the line.
Class::EXSPHERE_NOSURGE; For those Near-Impossible Boss Battles with brief Hope Spots before everything goes back to hell.
Class::CIEL_N_PROTECTA; Not sure what you'd use it for, but it's really good, anyway.
Plan N(ep): When all else fails, Improvise! Improvise like your life depends on it!

This may actually be a good idea. Adding Core Purge to our known abilities, and to the abilities that Sega knows about, could be very helpful in future encounters.
Like giving the idea to Nepgear to Core Purge Juggernaut Drive.
