After clearing Burning Sky with Kratos alone, I (not suprisingly) found Scout Force I in EUR impossible. So I was stalled, stalled, stalled for many months, until yesterday, I reached M40. Then I thought: "Hey, why not just throw in Asteria and see what she can do?" Scout Force I was still difficult, though now no longer impossible. After he fell, the early map was quite easy.
In these battles, Asteria is so new that she doesn't have any equipment on (although she now has a maxed white book).

This is the limit at this level of (non-)seriousness. Left Flank Force's double-fire mage formation is impossible unless Asteria wins a duel with the fire mage at the bottom and Kratos gets real lucky with the center mage failing.
After some good old-fashioned div spamming, Left Flank Force I went down. After that, it was a relatively smooth path to Hypnos, who himself wasn't so hard either.

Then came Aite, a very took cookie due to her double build, which of course did
massive damage while cutting right through Kratos' Rally. To get past her, I
had to add Asclepius and switch in a red weapon for Kratos. Fortunately, I had
2 Ares' Sword frags lying around already, and had some very good luck in NL
farming to get 8 more frags relatively quickly. Even with an (admittedly not maxed)
Ares' Sword though, it still quite a bit of div spamming. After Aite went down,
I once again managed to cut through the next few NPCs relatively smoothly.

Aporia was quite difficult (although a far cry from Aite), due to her dancer +
All Around Ambusclade + Soul Taking Arrows combo. After her, I once again got a
couple of relatively easy NPCs.

Stuck on the difficult Anaideia now. I'm going to need her thunder mage to fail while my Asteria doesn't fail, together with some solid blocking luck from Kratos. Obviously easier said than done.
Beat Scout Force I with without really adding anything new. Needed to add a sunstorm mage to get past the next three after that.

I think this may be the final limit of just messing around at this level with this joke build. VF II just too tough.
