The last two NPCs were beaten at M41. Anaideia especially gave me fits, eventually requiring some valor+element double washing. Currently stuck at Thanatos and camping at M42. All the NPCs above were beaten with no rens; but for the boss I'm giving all my heroes the +2 ren, which is partly why I've been stuck on Thanatos for a while.

Thanatos: http://b27.clapalong.com/?fid=N201209069662552
Virgin UGL (The Graeae): http://b27.clapalong.com/?fid=N201209069702529

All heroes at max ren. Priapus had +62/+49/+1 wash.

The boss was not nearly as tough as I thought he'd be. Only took 4 tries: First try I gave Melinoe a shot and got Complete Lose due to blocks, second try I switched equipment over to Priapus but forgot to add him to formation (so I attacked Thanatos with only 3 buglers and a healer!), third try I used the winning formation but got a Tie when only the enemy healer was left alive, and 4th try was the win.

Massacred in my virgin UGL as you can see. Not that I care.

P.S. Won with the help of M43

Scout Force I: http://b27.clapalong.com/?fid=N20120907179069 (1 bugler, Asclepius and 1 hitter only)

As you can see, I leveled up to 55 after beating Thanatos. Scout Force I was much more challenging because of his much higher defense; I kept getting Ties until that one lucky run where I got the necessary blocks. Ironically, taking out 2 buglers actually made this winnable because it enabled Priapus to damage more enemies earlier with blocks; without it, a Tie would be impossible to escape.

Scout Force II: http://b27.clapalong.com/?fid=N20120907240061

Such a huge contrast to the usual order of things... Only took I think 3 tries!

No improvements yet except tech upgrades. Heroes and equipment remained exactly the same.

Oops, that's not quite right. Hebe was un-renned. But other than that
all heroes were at max ren. Not that it matters much anyway...

Gutsy (or perhaps foolish) win over Cerberus in mid-ren.

Aeacus was painful, and I've got to admit I got impatient and used gold to kill fast track CDs...

VF I was not today but rather some time ago... The rest were today, in relatively quick succession using M43. Still some room for improvement with equipment actually; I have only 2 yellow cloaks equipped.

Very hard fought win over the Queen of the Dead. Took a lot of tries and a lot of luck. Leveled up to 57 after her, as you can see...

After being stuck on Main Force II for the bigger half of a month, and doing a few +2 rens, I finally broke through yesterday. After that, I made swift progress...

Hades, unfortunately, is just too hard at this time. His jorgumand's Strike in Column can be a singlehanded 1-hit KO!

[dietonight]

Hades down after 20 or so tries, and only a few after switching to Boar's Head.

Virgin HL2: http://b27.clapalong.com/?fid=N20121103478680 (Complete Lose against 1st NPC. Ouch!!)

Obviously the key here was Eurus, with his Apollo's Bow, Chimera, Caged Desire, Cloak of Runes, Magical Theory and Ox Horn, all maxed to (G6)7. He also had max ren, but hero level was 1 below max. His double-wash was solid (+70/+74/+1) but not maxed. Prestige was M43.
