Have been after this Badge for a long time as it fits my headcanon for my Swashbuckler really well: a Master Assassin whose front/alias is as a Master Courier, a Spiral-wide delivery captain who is an expert of weapons from all the different worlds-- striding through Skyways and streets by ship or by Pennyfarthing. Seeing as even though the Badge is locked behind 100 days of Daily Quests, it actually made it feel more worth grinding for.

Dunno if I will be doing the "Friend of --" Badges going forward though as those take 500 days...

Not to mention also Monquistan (we only got a Skiff) and Valencian!

Apparently I have three (3) Rouse cards now, and thankfully all four companions are still alive. Just stacking up on all the shields and heals I can get for survivability, with the three Lasko Arc bosses giving me optimal gear each. Next stop is the Presidio! Which was my nightmare dungeon as a kid, playing my very first Swash.

Headed in with Uncle Milo, Cuccio di Zoccolo, and El Toro! Was a pretty cool challenge with new mobs, just wish it was more than just 1 warehouse location and that they'd be more generous with the drops hehe. Only had 1 companion drop (Cuccio) throughout the gauntlet when the twist starting in the second fight caught me off-guard, but managed to clutch with my Swash tricks. The >!ambush round from the enemy team during the final battle almost got me too except!< the final boss made the mistake of targeting me the Captain and thus eliminating him Turn 1 😃

All in all, I really love hearing Uncle Milo talk extensively again, especially keeping his original voice actor, and learning more lore about one of our parents! Will be running it again for the drops, with the same team of companions <3
