i feel like combat got waaaay to hard on this one, mainly because everything seems to be faster than you in this one (so the "stun" move is kinda useless when mixed with the fact that it rarely ocurs):
The last orc on the hellish temple strategy seems impossible, it keeps spamming his buffing move and his triple attack move, at that point the player has 225 HP, the triple move can take up more then200 hp alone, so if i attack one turn, i have to use the next turn to heal, but he hits harder than i can possibly heal with the best healing item of the game, so either i take both the turns he takes to attack healing (at which point it's 100% useless since i do not deal damage) or i do the "heal-attack" strategy constantly and he ends up destroying my ass at the end because like it or not he hits slightly harder than i can heal, so i can't counter him in any way.
On the other hand the new Vine Succubus is absolutely annoying: "oh, how nice, she paralyzed me for 3 turns, i have to take one to heal at least after the decimation she dealt to me during that time... wait, that makes 4 turns total, which means i either use Iron Will immediately or i'm fucked (literally), great, 5 turns where i couldn't do jack and she then repeats the same thing... so i can never counter or attack in any way. could it be any worse? oh, yes it can, she is faster than me, i had no opportunity to even heal myself if i am in a pickle (i have to calculate how much damage she will do in the next round before i can use it... not that it matters since if she paralyzes me again i cannot use items either way... ). this while having the mask of poison resistance on, i don't want to even imagine what kind of nightmare that is without it."
I did Every side quest and temple and whole on the ground i could find, i do not believe there's anything i could've done to be stronger or faster, since this game does not allow for grinding. What am i missing? how can i overcome this two foes?!
