I hate Somnovores so much :|
It's mostly because of having to farm them for Formaldehyde X(
But Protect Order/Refresh Tactic is good for fighting them :D

Yuna, You would be thinking of the Somnovores don't give formaldehyde, they give some generic item that grants you a cool weapon or something.

Oh crap, that's right o.o!

You can also do it without guard soles, but it requires a bit of timing and precision.

About 4:15 seconds in this video should be where you were stuck at, I made this back in November when I LP'd the game. 8:48 shows the solution w/o the guard sole.

Actually I got that after a few noobish escapes from running into the battles and running away. I'm in a room a little further ahead, wasting a tone of pole stones and multiple attempts. I don't like using guides and such though, and I'm sure I'll get it eventually. Thanks again

The only instance where Guard soles are allowed in the inventory :|

I actually cleared that section my first time around without gaurd soles, hell, I had no idea guard soles removed the speed penalty from mud/slush tiles. I only thought they nullified damage tiles.

as for the puzzle rooms with mortal hunters, I just brute forced my way through, they are total jokes.

Yes and no about the mortal hunter being easy.

Yes, there are strategies that easily kill the Mortal Hunter, namely Sarutobi + Otori/Proboke. The other strategy is to bring Death Magatamas into the labyrinth with you and put them on before you face them, then re-equip you're other stuff once you're done.

No, they are not easy under the circumstance of pretty much any other case. Instant Death puts a huge damper on a team in a way that you're spending half your resources trying to revive and keep everyone alive and he murders the team since you can't deal enough damage back to kill him.

I try to solve the puzzles but eventually I get stuck in a corner and say "fuck it" and just muscle my way through >_>

I don't recall ever using Guard Soles either, so I probably puzzled my way through the first time and just defeated them on later occasions.
