Wild ARMS 4 Arnaud solo - Scythe

This is a solo run done in Wild ARMS 4. As the name implies, a solo run is one where you run through it with only one character. However, Wild ARMS 4 revives all your dead allies after battle and there's no way to remove them from the party permanently. As such, in the design process, Talaysen and I set up the rules as follows:

- Characters other than the solo character can only Guard or Move. They are not allowed to take any other action.
-Characters other than the solo character must be level 10 or under. To do this, you need to Monopoly Gourd. So in exchange for faster level up gains, you sacrifice one accessory slot and three characters.
-Characters other than the solo character must use their initial equipment. No Alter Parts may be used for Jude's ARM.
- No items that can be only gotten through New Game+ carry overs can be used. This last rule is to ensure you don't go into battles with Sheriff Stars equipped at the beginning of the game. It is not meant to be a "hard" rule. But you should try to follow what is reasonable for where you are in the game.

To do a solo game, it has to be done in a new game+. It is the only way to have access to the Monopoly Gourd in the beginning. Using this, we keep other characters' levels in check (read: low!).

Before I start, I just want to say I DID kill Incubator with Arnaud to the restriction of the above rules. It took me around 15 tries or so. 30 minutes of footage, 25 of which shows me repeatedly dying. One of which was after I killed him. Moral of this story: If fighting something difficult, it is okay to run several tapes at the same time ;_;. So no you won't see an Incubator fight. But it was awesome.

ANYWAYS, on to something that did not make me pull my hair out. Scythe is a very simple for Arnaud. Unlike Raquel/Jude/Yulie, you never have to break the boxes, thus you never have to worry about suction. Running out of MP? That's what getting MP charge with your CG is for! This fight is basically a free bye, since Scythe 4HKOs Arnaud and at best doubles him. Since you will throw Slow Down on him just for kicks, he'll never really amount to any workable offense. I step on the Wind HEX to give my damage a boost. Easy fight. Which I needed after all that Incubator fail ;_;.

Set up:
Level 19.
Weapon - Steel Edge
Armor - Silk Garb
Accessory - Monopoly Gourd
