The floor didn't put up much resistance. I used binds to my advantage as I normally do, especially helpful against the Giant Moas' legs. About halfway through, Varda got to Level 18. This let her pick up her first level in Ecstasy. I immediately employed her new technique I've been building towards the whole game so far against the local FOEs. Strategic spoiler...
***
The Tree Sponges spin when they're hit with a physical attack, and unleash Spin Drive on their subsequent turns. Otherwise, they only have a weakish single hit physical attack that Ichigo could easily laugh off. I used the setup turns to have Devaki lower its offense just in case, followed by having Azura use Blood Fortune via a Grimoire I snagged, Venom Curse (need to do this beforehand, else the poison from the subsequent action takes priority), then unleashing Varda's Force Break to get down as many binds as possible. The important one being the arms - as long as those were locked, Spin Drive was useless. If all three parts were bound, Ecstasy would do over 900 damage in tandem with Guard Slash's defensive reduction! Of course, due to the Force Break, I could only fight one at a time safely, but it's nothing to go back or just avoid them.
To wit how fast this party can kill things when things line up...
This is it after I'm ready to begin the assault, having around 4800HP
This is it three turns later.
***
Of course, Ecstasy and the binds do completely burn through her TP supply...the latter cost 8TP a shot and the former 12TP. Impractical overkill most of the time. I fought a few in my way, dodged some others, picked up some items along the way, and went up the steps. So far, the (second?) return to this game has been going so good.
