Etrian Odyssey Untold - Fire Torrent Turn 2 Damage Cap vs Yggdrasil Core (Expert Classic)

Been a while since I've uploaded a EO video so here is one.

Also high definition mod in use - link can be found in Utility Document (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m5G-ZQvXsmM68TCrSv2bWfKz2SfSc7xq-REfMXMhAEc) that I loosely maintain. I added a couple upscales of my own since it's missing some classic mode portraits. It seems like I forgot to replace Landy and Ronin-Highlander port though. Ah well.

The RNG layer is Turn 1 head bind landing, Necrosis not killing anyone (...which I can fudge some equipment around to get Jewel Eye on a couple units but didn't really feel like making new grimoires), and the attack not missing. Explode can't be prevented by bind, but head bind + Flame Fantasia makes it quite survivable.

There are better ways to get Turn 2 kill or 99999 damage, but doing both requires some sacrifices here and there.

Some notes on further optimization for damage (or just some random notes):
- Of course, landing Fear and using Muting word is a much better damage gain, but this boss has base 0.1x modifier for Fear (vs 0.2x for head bind). Combined with the fact that Cranial 15 has much better base infliction chance vs Evil Eye, this is likely the better way to go. Another unit could try head bind or fear, but yeah. Didn't prove to be necessary so whatever.
- Frailty Curse isn't the best debuff to use here, but I didn't want to make another grimoire for Forest Barrier 10.
- I could also use this grimoire on Alchemist, have the Alc use Dilution, and have Troubadour use Forest barrier on another grimoire, but didn't feel like changing things around.
- About 1.002x damage can be gained by arranging turns and using Prelude 15 instead of Fantasia 15. I didn't deem that worth the gain.
- As a reference, the damage without Frailty Curse was already like 96000.
- Flame Formula 15 is 490% and Torrent 15 is 580%.
- There are Bloody Offense, War Cry, and Dilution in use so 4th debuff suffers 45% penalty due to diminishing returns. Forest Barrier 10 is 30% base, but 45% dimininishing return makes that only 19.5%. So while Flame Formula 15 could get the kill, it won't be enough to hit 99999 as-is.
- Etc etc. Getting late so whatever.
