Got back into Nocturne, and it turned out to be easier getting back into the swing of things than I thought. Just finished the Assembly of Nihilo dungeon and beat the boss. I save at literally any opportunity I can get. Seeing a save room gives me the same sense of relief as finding a bonfire in the Souls games, because I'm always so afraid of randomly dying from an encounter.
So far my team consists of Dis, Kikuri-Hime, Makami, and some toothed-vag
ina looking creature whose name I forget. They've been serving me well. I feel as though buffing my team's dodge/aim while nerfing the enemy's has been a very viable strategy so far.
