Advice on defeating Aegina's valk squad in Framm?, How best to do things the hard way Options

[Greyhawk]

Can anyone offer advice on the best way to handle Aegina's group of [High]'d valks that appear on BF15-3? Aside from avoiding them, that is. I'm trying to get as many items as possible and I really want that Golden Wheat thats behind them (not to mention the sword Aegina is carrying).

You challenged it,

I made no challenge, I interjected.

She was using a long-term condition before you were not.

So he's just as at fault as me for not explaining the conditions from the start.

Justify how the long-term is irrelevant, then. Because you certainly haven't shown why ignoring the long-term makes for better advice.

Fanelia Beam is far better than Disaresta against the Dark Aghart.
Is that statement wrong? No.
Does that mean you should waste your 1x Fanelia on the Dark Aghart? No.
If someone asks what is the best weapon against the Dark Aghart, one - without taking long term consequences into account - should respond "Fanelia." Would one? No. Because the final battle is a far better place to throw away your Fanelia.
Now in application: Did I ever claim that the Warp Shoes should be used for the Golden Wheat? No. Did I claim they were better than another method of obtaining it - disregarding future consequences? Yes. Do you understand now?

Why, then, were you two arguing about whether Durant was the best rather than whether the long-term was irrelevant?

Because Suzu doesn't know how to argue.

So I assumed you thought there was somewhere where she argued that.

Assumptions are bad for you.
