FF13 JP/Snow route notes

http://www.nicovideo.jp/mylist/49834873
New FF13 Any% route, based on 5:13:55 run by Shirasu


Chapter 1 Identical

Chapter 2:
Slow battle speed on at the start?
Zwerg battles: wait till one is left, single attack (2 stars).
Doesn’t pick up Iron Bangle.
No slow battle speed for Fortisol Zwergs (just kills ASAP).
Power Wristband menu done after Ghoul hallway (probably a mistake)
3/3 route (seems to have gotten lucky with fort drops)

Post Manasvin paradigm setup is the same, but set up with “generate” (also no Crystarium).
