Ignore what @mkl2g1 said. This whole attempt is impressive and if nothing else, this helps me figure out where I should be gear-wise during a playthrough. I didn't know this was even possible, until I saw this video. Huge props all around and thanks for it. The only thing I would add is that I would wish to see the final fight with the dragovian challenge. My only question is, how come you used the meteorite bracer instead of the Catholician ring? Is that ring not that good for this?
Thanks. You mean the catholicon ring? I don't see how that would help. Since most Status attacks of the bosses are abilities and not spells therefore it doesn't protect against them.
Holy smokes, this is as impressive as hell! I love DQ8 and to me this is one of my fave game of all time, which is why I think what you did here is quite awesome my friend. Sure you used the monster team a few times but to me that does not take away how impressive this was, so thank you for showing us this.

I only used monsters to speed things up with the damage. because if not, the battles will take twice the time and the video will be too long for no reason. If you notice i always stay at first to demonstrate the Strategy and how to combat all the bosses moves and then call the team to deal some damage to clear it quicker. Some battles will require a ridiculous amount of turns without monster teams, for example empyrea's strategy would take much longer if i didnt call the team, some final rhapthorne battles i damage him for 1000-2000 only for him to heal it back by not giving me a chance to deal more than 500 before he heals.
@@overki1l I get that and it's a good reason, but when you start a challenge and decide on rules to follow, it would be good to respect them whenever possible. For the final form of rhapthorne, it's acceptable to make an exception to the hero only rule because otherwise his shield can't be broken and this makes him invincible. In the other cases, exceptions weren't necessary and if you make them just to speed things up, then there's no point in the challenge
I kind of couldn't agree. Since the "Call team" action is performed by the hero only, is fully in his right to use that command. Well, if you don't agree with that, the whole question is only about the meaning of words...
@@hardtimes2597 Monsters called by that command function as temporary extra members of the party that replace the regular one. Requiring hero to call them doesn't change that

Good video for the most part, but even if only temporarily, using monsters as help makes the hero only challenge void

@@MKL874 noted. I might redo the challenge in the future with more strict Rules.
