[Contains Spoiler] Please add better hints for special elements in battle
From Discord by Rei and Juffacake:
Feedback: If a map requires a certain special story skill to complete, maybe don't allow the player to use that skill before it needs to be used. Chapter 17 combat was unnecessarily frustrating.

I noted the same in the forum post. Seems there's more than meets the eye to that mission apparently

Juffacake MergedThe tutorial for Eden's new ability is given upon mission start, but its not until Franciso eludes to using it on the Behemoth that the player is told it might be required for something hidden. It's a bit unreasonable to expect new players not to use the new power they've been given, and instead to wait to use it on an enemy they don't know is going to appear on the map.
Francisco says something like "you should try you move on this" but most players, I imagine, would have already used it.
Even if there is another way to fulfil the hidden requirement for the sword, upon being told to use the ability, and not having it, players may think they have missed the chance completely and restart the map (which Is exactly what I did). -

SuricateMy thought exactly tonight. I ended up rage quitting the game at that chapter (will retry later, but combined with the difficulty of Vermiliths I was quite bitter)

Elysiumer MergedI Used Eden's ability - it made like 5 damage. I do not understand how can I pass this battle. Even if I make 1/3 damage to Behemoth - it heals 100 or 200hp.

Randy Ngelale MergedCh17 his gained some notoriety among fans for a number of reasons:
1) You aren't told that (spoiler) is recommended to be used on behemoth to get a bonus reward. This can lead to it being wasted.
To kill a few birds with one stone, how about adding a prompt that says (spoiler) can be used infinitely for this battle only. And when you hit the behemoth with it, you can stun it and disable the damage reflection temporarily? -
