Of course I'm not going to make Laharl the T-1000 Terminator anytime soon. He's powerful, but he can be overcome quite easy should he get ganged up. I did the promotion exams up to where I fought those two guardians and I pulled it off, barely. I think I've found a nice map (2nd map in Jotenheim) to level up for now. It has reasonably powered enemies. Also, is there another movement to boost up my gauge again? I have it at 1 + 10% every time I start a normal battle now, which is very nice.
