Small optimisations:

  • Getting a preemptive may not be the fastest way to escape a battle, because of the extra message
  • We may try to avoid random drops (also saving a message)
  • During preemptives, the last character acts first (to be confirmed), so try to think ahead when positioning characters
  • Length of Desperation Attacks (from end of display message to beginning of damages):
    • Terra (Riot Blade): 128 frames
    • Locke (Mirager): 127 frames
    • Edgar (RoyalShock): 105 frames

Medium optimisations:

  • Save+Quit may save some time to reset and hopefully save random battles.
  • Try to save or factorise menuing, by buying more items than necessary, or keeping sub-optimal equipment if it's enough
