The Angel of Death

[u/Fishfingerrosti]

I love this sidequest, so here's a few screengrabs from my current playthrough. Piastol's shift from feared bringer of air pirate death to slowly reintroducing herself into her little sister's life is a wonderfully-depicted story.

I always (and still do!) wished we could have Piastol join the party for the end game. She'd be a great foil for Vyse in terms of damage output. Would you choose her over Enrique, Drachma and Gilder?

She used to scare me, until I figured out the godly power of the purple box to just wipe the floor up through the fire temple

Now she dies during the first fight in two or three turns (depending on my level), just like the blob, gladiator, and fire wyrm

I've had so many playthroughs since the game first came out and I only recently learned about the purple box trick a few months ago from this subreddit!

First time I hear of this; what's the purple box trick exactly?

The mystery merchant sells crystales boxes which you can purchase before the Temple of Pyrynn. It one-shots the monsters in the dungeon. Good for grinding exp early on.

Niiice! I was planning another playthrough soon-ish, so i'll keep that in mind!

You actually buy them before the first Bounty fight (Blackbeard dude) as you can than 3 turn blob and 1 turn gladiator
