In my current playthrough, I used just a few of the techniques I know to get 3×100 Flare for my party to junction to STR and 3×100 Thundaga to junction to Elem Atk (you can get two of them, and the Siren has the third IIRC–it’s been a while since the SeeD exam and the playthrough proceeds at a snail’s pace) before the SeeD exam in order to defeat the “Crab Mecha” on the first available opportunity. All that, while keeping my levels at a minimum (under lvl 10, ideally).
I have the patience for it, but it still gets incredibly tedious and dull.
Oh, I know! 😅
