So, I'm trying to play through without using the collar and I'm a bit stuck on Kerberos's core in the Fortress of Wrath. Aamon I figured out, the nasty oil coating makes it a total joke, but Kerberos's triple attack has me stumped. Anyone have any tips for that fight?

Do you use a slime? If so, put the slime on 'water' and use protect when needed. Make sure to use an ability or item to get the "Initiative" for critical strikes. It also makes it harder for someone to hit you too. So long as it's not a spell ofc.
What sort of pre-battle setup do you have? As far as auto-spells and stuff
Edit:
This is how I remember fighting against Kerberos:
Auto-Tailwind
Heat Up(TWICE) while Slime attacks
And then Attack (you) plus Rampage (slime) once you heated up twice.
If you still can't beat it, then Rampage with yourself and slime at the same time, instead of just the slime.
That was my strategy...I hope it helps.

Honestly, the problem is the triple hits. I kinda figured it was something like what you said, and I can get to the add summon phase if I get lucky with the misses when I use a flash bomb, but it's just a huge amount of incoming damage and Kerberos keeps getting crits off the slime which makes me miss.

My way was through constant usage of Tactical Advantage from Light and Physical attacks (Nascent Oil Coating). It requires to be faster than him and also relies on RNG, but it's possible.
I also heard that it becomes easy if you use Pacify on him. Double Pacify and his attacks are not really scary although I didn't check that.
There are several guides in SKA's wiki (

and

), also there is one in game's steam page. Maybe they are not smth like super detailed walkthroughs, but are definitely useful

The main character is so lovable that I just can't bring myself to corrupt them.

Since lewdness and corruption are two separate stats, is it possible to just have sex without raising corruption? At least not to the point where she becomes an awful human being? I read one of the posts a few pages back that says corruption is basically her bullying her friends, but can she just become a slut without doing that too?
Out of curiosity, I’ve decided to replay the final battle at different stages of Aura's personality changes. Yes, I admit, the Victory B ending has a few more options than I initially thought. And yet there are some contradictions. During the cheating root epilogue, Aura first says "I can spend most of my remaining time helping those I hurt", but after a few dialogues she's like "oh, but in the end I just can’t stand against my new experience". Meh.
Also, her changes indeed have certain checkpoints (so to speak), after which the Victory B ending changes more significantly. Although I have some questions here too. E.g., her memory changes turned out to be more important for the ending than, for example, corruption of some orbs. This is extremely controversial and, as it seems to me, is not explained by the plot or lore.
Imho, any unnecessary assumptions (like “accumulated curse effect” to explain everything in this case) only worsen the perception of any plot. But it’s a matter of taste, of course. The very fact that SKA and its dialogues made me reflect proves that it’s a great game. I agree, it should be played as RPG without chasing H-scenes. Maybe even without save scumming (yeah, it’s my sin). And it definitely has potential to expansion of both Aura's story and the world as a whole. If we will see new dialogues and endings - great. If we will see a sequel - even better. Aura-dev has done a great job, truly.
Without major spoilers, they are "good" (aka pure path or Victory A) ending, "bad" (aka corruption) ending, and Victory B ending with different outcomes depending your progress in Roya and mental world.
As far as I can see - yes, with a number of factors. For example, if you play on story difficulty with increased effect of Blessed water, don't make major changes in her mental world and go through lewd scenes in Roya - yes, she can become a slut in Roya.

Gonna try pacify later, thanks.
A big part of the game is figuring out how the individual bosses work. They're hard, but there's always something you can do to beat them. It's kinda funny how Aura keeps saying "As long as I'm thinking I can win" because that's very much how the RPG side of the game works. The game is very much an actual game.this game is sooo hard i cant think
should i let it go and go full corruption mode cus it seems easier xD
making gold and progress is soo annoying
You could. Corruption makes things easier. Just be ready for consequences.
Just started the game recently, does Richard/Gilgamesh Knockoff and Alicia get some character development later in game? Or are they just "pure evil"? Like would there be some "backstory" why Richard/Alicia is comically pure evil?
How "hard" is it to try going for pure route/ Victory A Blind on Normal Difficulty (not using walkthroughs)? I'm afraid of the accumulating corruption/lust per day (soft time limit) and makes me think I should min max my Days and not spend too much time on less efficient day consuming activities. If possible, I want to leisurely take my time enjoying the game, but the lust/corruption game makes me dread it (yes, I can lower the difficulty, but I prefer to play normal). Any tips?
Is there any point to fighting normal mobs (aside from possible quests that may require killing x amount of them or something)? Since they drop 0 exp, 0 gold, 0 item, do they somehow give skills when you kill x amount of them (Like 10 goblins killed = goblin slayer skill that increases damage against goblins/ + stats)?
