Must be a bug. Her bar is full, but she won't use it even when I command her to.
Either way, I just beat the (hopefully) final boss. About two minutes ago. I entered this zen-like trance near the end where I was swapping through arts strategically like clock work. I fucking love this battle system, even though some of the mechanics are totally lost on me.
I never was able to build those TP augments, but I had a lot of arts that built TP, so I managed fine. The fight isn't unbeatable. It's just the Skell issue that is extremely annoying. And honestly, it's really just having to wait like 5 minutes through cutscenes and rebooting if you die. It's literally unbearable. The last phase is actually my favorite because the Skell thing isn't an issue so I was able to just keep retrying without having to wait for anything. I'm about to start the next cutscene.
Great twist, by the way. I kind of suspected something in that direction because of the nature of overdrives and the existance of post game content, but fortunately, I didn't think about it hard enough to ruin the suprise for myself.
