Have not finished Ch3/Ch4 of Deltarune yet

[malymin]

On my old computer, I had the following loadout on the party at the end of Chapter 2:

Kris: this loadout gives them +2 ATK and + 6 DEF, and help with bullet grazing
- Weapon: BounceBlade (+2 ATK, +1 DEF)  
- Armor 1: TwinRibbon (+3 Def, increased graze area)
- Armor 2: TensionBow (+2 Def, grazing TP amount increase)

Susie: This loadout gives her +5 ATK, +6 DEF, and +6 Magic
- Weapon: Devilsknife (+5 ATK, +4 Magic, -10 Rude Buster TP)
- Armor 1:  Royal Pin (+3 DEF, +1 Magic)  
- Armor 2:  Royal Pin (+3 DEF, +1 Magic)  

Ralsei: this loadout gives him +2 ATK, +8 DEF, and + 8 Magic
- Weapon: Fiber Scarf (+2 ATK, +2 Magic)
- Armor 1: Dealmaker: (+5 DEF, +5 Magic, more money)
- Armor 2: Royal Pin (+3 DEF, +1 Magic)

...but I no longer have that save data on me. I tried doing Chapter 3 on a "fresh" save with no Ch1/Ch2 data, but everything kicked my ass, and a friend gave me their Ch2 data to help me... but that save is missing a few Royal Pins compared to my old one. And I don't remember how to save-edit equipment onto party members...

I've heard Chapter 3 is a lot harder than Chapters 1+2 were, too...

I didn't notice it getting too much harder... Except for an optional thing that I wouldn't count towards overall difficulty anyway

[malymin]

I have not-so-great reaction time and information processing speed, and I found a lot of non-battle challenges (like the minigames in Ch3) to be overwhelming and difficult to process compared to the bullet hell battles, and those later get incorporated into a boss fight... I'm also struggling heavily with the pumpkin boss in Ch4.

okay that is very fair

the pumpkin boss is a LOT less charming when you have to keep replaying it

[malymin]

At this point, I've ended up seeing spoilers without finishing Chapter 4... rip.

I'm not sure if I CAN do the secret bosses this time.

😔
i'm definitely not trying the chapter 3 boss, it looks absolutely brutal
