On another note, I did finish new quests. Mostly they aren't so bad - I can confirm that they only require A rank (unfortunately not B). The sole exception that gave me a lot of bad blood was 3-5. 2BBV 1CL and 1DD doesn't leave much for any workable compositions. Eventually I used third BBV and 1SSV, overloaded with SPF to ensure AP and routing. It still sucked, but managed somehow.

Yeah, I considered that as a possibility too... but the difference is that Shiden K2's are craftable, but the M52C (601) isn't.

Either way, I think it's worth checking out, and I would but I don't have the screws or extra M52's to really check.

...hopefully someone with more screws than sense will try this out...
