FF13 Snow Route - V2.1 (ESA)

http://www.nicovideo.jp/mylist/49834873
New FF13 Any% route, based on 5:13:55 run by Shirasu
V2.1 by MLSTRM (ESA Final Version)
- Royal armlet picked up over healers staff
- Wild bear and vegas upgraded in ch9
- Poison used for Enki/Enlil
- Some slight strat modifications
- Still terrible early game notes
- Fixed a couple of paradigm setups
- Some menu inputs included


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
[Possibly run 3/1f, bonus on B2/Anima?]

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