What's important about the 'Spin Attack' is that not only can you get it relatively early on by grabbing Rare Medals (or later by Fishing), but that the attack either knocks down a lot of bosses or does a ridiculous amount of damage as they then don't have extra invincibility for being knocked down. While the new 'Monoshift' looks awesome, the way to really make boss fights trivial is to craft a Sword with the 'Beast King Crest' to get one with the 'Spin Attack' special attack yet another new feature to Swordcraft 2 is weapons with special attacks that take DURability to use. But to really make most boss fights trivial. Most importantly with the Drill's charging attack, if you position yourself and time the level of charge right, you can hit enemies multiple times, as you spend about 1 extra second standing with the drill extended when you finish moving after being launched, at which time the enemy can be hit up to 4-5 times if they're in contact with the drill.ДЇor the above two reasons, I recommend concentrating on the Drill just like the original game, as it can clear the random encounters you will face much, much quicker, as well as make some boss fights quicker. With the Fist you do an uppercut if you do DOWN+Attack, and holding the Attack button charges the uppercut to do more damage and can knockdown vulnerable enemies, while the Drill you simply hold down ATTACK without a direction and you start charging an attack that launches you forward with distance depending on how much you charged, doing increased damage to enemies you strike. In addition to this, there are two hidden charging attacks: one with the Fist, and one with the Drill. Only the spear has a special attack in the air.

All weapon types have different attacks when you press DOWN+Attack, and some have different attacks if you're able to do UP+Attack without jumping. For instance, I have a hard time 'Just Guarding' with the spear, but an easy time getting it with the drill, which is a faster weapon (despite the drill's lag-time after attacking with it). For timing your blocks just right to negate damage, it seems the weapons block at about the rate at which they swing, which makes faster weapons block faster and slower weapons block slower. Most of the mechanics are the same - most importantly 'Just Guard' for negating ALL damage - but there are some additional things I think may help out any potential speedrunners: If interested, I'd first check out the great speedrun on this site of the original Swordcraft, which briefly explains some important mechanics, and is an all-around decent run: And finally, the game is pretty damn easy up until postgame. New to Swordcraft 2 specifically: early on you get a consumable which lets you save anywhere, which should make segmenting a breeze. The game also rewards you for being underleveled. You can also hold down L to hide the dialogue box altogether (to see what's behind it), though I don't think you can do both at once. The game itself even seems to be made for speedrunning, through holding R+B to quickly skip text (now each dialogue box just appears for ~100ms at most), and pressing START to skip longer in-game animations (including the initial panning at the start of a battle). The game is genuinely a lot of fun, has awesome sound, and real-time combat very reminiscent of a 'Tales' J-RPG.

I'd say it's one of the funniest series Atlus has published, which may be saying something. Not 'it's so bad it's good' hilarious, but genuinely funny. The game has a very high replay value, due partly to a large amount of dialogue changed by picking a different starting Guardian Beast, and partly due to how the game encourages you to focus on just one or two out of 5 different weapon types, and the even larger amount of dialogue that changes between the initial picking of Boy or Girl as well as New Game+ mode. Well anyway, here's the merits of running this game:

Perhaps it's because this game didn't sell too well? It's not ridiculously expensive on eBay if you want a physical copy (about $30). While I see the original Summon Night: Swordcraft Story on SDA, I can't find a proper speedrun of Swordcraft Story 2 on here, Youtube, or even (not even a TAS)! I found just one deathless race on. Hi everyone, recent fan that found this site from AGDQ.
