Dragon Quest VIII: Dragovian Trials, Angelo Only No Equipment No Items (Part 1 of 2)

Angelo undertakes the final Dragovian Trial (eight bosses in a row) without assistance from fellow party members, without Equipment, and without even a single item to use in battle. Angelo is generally thought to be the weakest of the four characters, so will he emerge victorious?

This challenge was harder than my previous Hero Only challenge, mainly due to the fact that Miracle Moon only heals half as much as Miracle Slash. It took many attempts to get this video.

Seed farming took longer than for my Hero Only video, because I needed to max Agility and Defence. It took 5 months of auto-farming with a turbo controller to get the seeds.

For those interested, Angelo's stats were:
HP - 733
MP - 653
Strength - 999
Agility - 999
Resilience - 999
Wisdom - 500
Attack - 999
Defence - 999

Seed farming info:

Seed of Strength
Mimics and Red Fangs on the island in the southwest corner of the map

Seed of Defense, Seed of Agility
Metal Slimes in the grove of trees just west of the Royal Hunting Grounds

Seed of Skill
Solaris, Great Troll, Crocodog in the Heavenly Dais

I'm so sorry, I know you must be so annoyed at these questions. But what exactly does a turbo controller do for you? I know you said it constantly presses a button for you...but what do you do when farming? Does it actually go around fighting battles for you? or do you have to manuallly get in the battles then let the controller do it?

I've got a turbo controller it has a slow button to right I've go squarsoft turbo controller

[dragonquest8ftw1]

amazing how he notices that angelo is unarmed yet not knowing he is fighting on his own

[NimbleTurtle13]

@fuzzymillipede Couldn't you just tension up with angelo until he was low health and then use fullheal (which doesn't take away tension)? That would have made the battle much faster.

how come so many people have never heard of a turbo controller?
