Finally finished reading it all. The addition of whips really makes it even more difficult to choose what to play next, mage or summoner...
I also still have to decide if I want to try Master mode first, or Journey mode with Master difficulty and only using the research and duplication... maybe time manipulation too so I don't have to wait to fight certain bosses.
The side of me that loves challenge says just Master mode, but my collector/builder side says Journey+Master difficulty...
