Tentacle Lash (Polymorph): strike an enemy with physical damage and may prevent them from using their own skills (but not spells).

Living on the Edge (Necromancer): for two turns the target cannot go below 1 vitality.

Backlash (Scoundrel): jump behind an enemy and backstab them.

Adrenaline (Scoundrel): gain two AP now, but lose two on the next turn.

Skyshot (Huntsman): leap in the air and deal damage along with any High Ground bonus.

First Aid (Huntsman): restore vitality and remove some status effects.

Crippling Blow (Warfare): slice up to two enemies in a sweeping motion, and may cause Cripple.

Bouncing Shield (Warfare): toss your shield at up to two targets, damage based on the shield’s defense.

The party will want to have strong damage attacks, preferably from a safe range, along with armor regeneration and healing that can target NPCs. Buy and steal items from anyone left in the Fort Joy Ghetto, Seeker Encampment, and other locations.

One should make sure their team is outfitted with good and diverse skill books, high-level equipment, and expendables such as potions and status affecting arrows. This means all shopping should be done before agreeing to depart Fort Joy, and hopefully, some merchants are still alive given the player’s ability to rampage within urban districts. There are no shops between Fort Joy’s docks and the voyage aboard the Lady Vengeance. The encounter with Dallis can be quite a shock if one isn’t expecting it.
