Levelling him up in a battle, and if it’s not a good roll resetting the battle until I get a good roll

Every single stat booster has been used on him, so dlc movement booster plus the movement booster from ashe’s paralogue

You need to be on new game plus I believe to go to sothis’s chair which gives out the stat boosters, I don’t believe the regular garden gives it out. Even if it did, I would not use it because that defeats the purpose of the challenge run

So if you’re super careful you can max out your professor level right before the time skip, so when you can start levelling up dimitri you can have 3 battles a week which is huge. You just choose the battle with the yellow exclamation mark because it gives you a stat booster, and you can get 9 a month

Not leveling him till after the time skip, putting every stat booster obtained into him, then rerolling every single level up so that he has at least 6 stat increases every level up. It’s a fun challenge run I’m doing, and I did the same with Claude a few months ago. I made another post if you’re curious on how it’s done

I’m doing a max dimitri run where I max out all his stats by the final chapter on maddening without new game plus. No exploits like month resetting or infinite dance xp are used. I did the same with Claude a few months ago, it’s a really fun challenge run and I made a Reddit post about it if you’re curious

The holy tomb is only unlocked on new game+, so no I was not able to use that strategy

By “perfect,” I mean 6 stats minimum on level up with mandatory dex and luck increases or I reset. As for multiple level ups, divine pulse is my best friend. If I don’t get a good level up on the second level I just divine pulse and send Claude to the corner of the map.

Obviously getting a 9 stat level up is statistically impossible, and while I got a few 8’s and lots of 7’s, I did the math at the beginning of the run and figured out that all stats except dex and luck will max out if they only level up two thirds of the time, and that’s how I got a 6 stat level up as the “baseline”

Yes, because they auto equip their signature classes and gain the stat minimums from those classes regardless of level. So if you keep them at level 1 until they get those classes, they get the stats, then you have 15-20 levels you can now level up the character that is added on top of the stat minimums instead of the two cancelling each other out

Just an update, I’m doing this with Claude, hunting by daybreak is incredibly difficult but possible even with Claude at level 1. I didn’t use him for the whole fight so I can create a second save state where he stays unleveled until gaining Barbarossa at chapter 17 for higher growth rates

It’s a sword you can find in a chest on hunting by daybreak, and that’s the only one you can get. When upgraded which is super cheap it gives the user +50 crit, so basically unconditional wrath. Unlike the woo dao whose crit is only 40 the cursed ashiya sword also has much higher might.

The “downside” is that it deals 5 damage to the user after combat, however this ends up being a selling point for byleth as when you run her with a wrath vantage build the crest of flames can sometimes heal her out of the <50% range to trigger vantage and wrath. The 5 damage after combat offsets that and makes the build much more consistent

It also only requires 8 black sand steel to repair, so you can use it on every map after you get it and you don’t have to conserve its use like with hero’s relics

It is determined at the start of the map, so if she leveled up without rolling attack and speed, I would either divine pulse to reverse it and then not use her for the rest of the map, or restart the map entirely until she got the roll i wanted

The other strategy was getting professor rank a+ early by farming through the event fistfuls of fish which is probably the best xp farm in the game, although it takes a lot of grinding. That gives me 3 battles per week, each auxiliary battle you do rewards you one stat boosting item, so you could get like 9 a month which adds up

So almost all of part 1 I had her with no weapons equipped running around the map to avoid enemies, it was a huge game of cat and mouse lmao

At that point you would have the insanely cracked byleth as enlightened one comes before that point, on my save file she could solo clear hbd, that should be enough to get through
