- WHAT THIS CHANGES
- So the strat outlined below is a way to use a bonus decept on puddings in chapter 11 to cut out a lot of menuing. Some further testing from this made us realise that we can do the Bird pre-empt in Taejin's Tower without a Deceptisol, basically cutting that out of the route. This means the new ideal would be 3d/2f in Chapter 2, with the first bonus going towards Puddings, second probably either the now manual dodge, or possibly a bridge fight in Chapter 9.
- New ch11 strats?
- Testing using a decept or a fort on rust puddings to eliminate the re-equip.

- ==Battle: Hecatoncheir=============================
- (Note: Hecatoncheir typically executes 7-ATB worth of attacks after Looming Wrath. Quake counts for 3 ATB. Counter expels all ATB (and ends the attack string) but can only be used from the 4th ATB segment on. His final attack is typically either Force Projection or Counter.)
- * Instant shift
- SAB/COM
- * Deprotect-Deshell-Imperil
- * Repeat
- * Shift when Fang's close
- SAB/SEN
- * Repeat
- * Ready Potion and throw when Fang dips below 800 HP
- * Renew at 500 HP for first 2 cycles?
- * Potions otherwise, if tetradic runs out get ready with PDs?
- SAB/COM
- * Repeat
- * Potion
- * Repeat
- Follow the pattern of SAB/COM during Looming Wrath, SAB/SEN just before and during attack strings. Read the above note. (Try to00 activate Tetradic Crown just after Protect wears off.)
- Average: lewd says 2:20? I get more like 2:45
