I recently finished Galahad Fortress and Fiora joined my party, Reyn and Sharla have also rejoined it. I really enjoyed the cutscenes during those moments. Is level 56 good enough or am I a bit underlevled in the Fallen Arm? Is it worth grinding there? 

Can't wait to play this game again next week when I have access. I will have to settle with playing Trials and Tribulations at the moment. I'm big fan of Fiora, her fighting style suits me the best and I really like her voice.

Yeah, I really liked those cutscenes as well. Really put the whole story back together. And your level is about right. Maaaaybe a level too low, but pretty much perfect I feel. 

Her fighting style suits me also. Nice a quick, a good mix of Arts, a changable Talent Art...works well.

When does it stop being too overwhelming? When does someone get used to it?
I'm on my way to Prision Island, and I don't want to do anything but progress the story, it's all too much.

Really, it needs more landmarks.

There's plenty of landmarks. And it stops getting so overwhelming when you hit Bionis' Leg if you keep on top of everything. You've clearly let it all build up, so it'll only get worse from here really.

She is the best female character in the whole game. I love her voice one of my favourite voices ever, altough for me Sharla was the most usefull female character in battles.

I really need to get back and finish the game. I've spent more than 175 hours now. I'm in the Mechonis City right now but I cannot beat the boss battle at level 71. 5 times so far and don't even get half of his health off before I'm wiped.

My son has taken over the game room so I've been 3DSing it for the last couple of weeks. Managed to complete Devil Survivor 2 because of it so that's a good thing.

By end game you don't even need Sharla. You can use skill links to turn a lot of your attacks into critical hits. I don't remember the % rate but it's pretty high. Then one of Dunban's skill links revives 2% HP per critical hit, and there's also a skill link that heals HP after a topple. Combine all this with Glory Gauntlets and 7th's Speed V armor to get 45% Haste, you'll be healing incredibly often just by using the auto attacks. You'll be able to build up the gauge quickly (7th is especially useful) to continuously topple and you'll be destroying monsters and healing like a maniac. Of course, gems help too...

My end game party was Shulk, Dunban, and 7th and I was able to destroy everything. Poor Belgezas didn't even get an attack in thanks to topple.

Well I used her in every boss battle except the telethia boss in the heart of the bionis, and the last one. Had no real problems with her in the team, the health of my fighters was always about 75%. I think Sharla is too underrated by you guys.

This is Gadolt I'd imagine? He's pretty tricky to take down, but I can post tactics if you'd like. It might help!

And Melly is the best female character. Never really used Sharla, because Riki/Shulk could heal fine for the most part.

I don't 'underrate' Sharla. She just has such pitiful attack she should only be in the team as a last resort IMO.

Yep that be he. I've tried switching up characters but nothing has worked so far. I haven't really used Riki a lot. Sharla has more heal/cure abilities but she doesn't always use them when I need it. I went in there with her thinking maybe it was a trick battle and she wouldn't get hurt. Silly me.

Yeah, that could be the plan. I did it with Shulk/Riki/Sharla. The key was to use Monado Armour every time he does that bizzare Ether circular attack. That's the killer.
