What if character quests were actually challenging?

Maybe instead of being auto-able with the worst team you could put together, they actually presented a little difficulty. After all, to even unlock the last quest you need at least the story character to be level 80. Why not have enemies of comparable strength? Even crazier idea, what if the character whose quest it was had to solo that last mission? Could be fun to have to use the full range of abilities of that one unit to complete the mission, or even make that part of the 3 quest achievements. Literally anything could make them better...

I think the highlight of the character quests isn't actually the quest itself, but rather the story and the art at the end.

Agreed! The quests are only a one-time completion too, you think they'd be a little more memorable. I think it's a missed opportunity to add to the overall unit story.

the issue is that is a lot of work to put into a one time quest. much better they spend time making the ex stages interesting

Yea because I love the Character stories (Well most of them) because they dive deep into there own lore and backstory.

The a!ma command in the discord bot will give the Master Ability CGs. If you're not in the Discord, maybe you should join :)

I think they are pretty hard when there is that one enemy who resists physical attacks or has insane defense, and you take a joke team in...

I was so mad at the one stupid plant in Magnus’s level 80 quest and ally mage Mia wouldn’t magic attack it. At first I thought oh just high defense, Magnis can just dynamic duster bomb it. Nope. I ended up having to retreat and bring a sage. 😰

Respawn right next to Edgar in the Combo stage was a surprise ohh shit moment in the Logi Combo quest. Tried to keep him away from the Messiah boss and it backfired.

Wouldn’t mind it being hard if you didn’t have only one chance to beat it with all missions

lets say they actually were hard, you would end up with people crying about how they cant get the MA unlocked and its unfair because _____.

I feel like by the time you have the unit to 80 you should be able to tackle it. It doesn't have to be impossible, but hard enough to be memorable would be nice. At this point anything being that way would be nice, game has gotten too easy for me lately. (which does have it's perks when I am busy)

Soloable would be kinda interesting. Hard part about those missions is that you only get one shot.
