Been hitting a wall with Cropdale for the past few days.   
Can't seem to get the Timing right with Damage. Can break her and kill the Monsters in just about every which way. Can do like this video and just never giver *her* a break.   
  
Then someone over on the JP side mentioned that when Cropdale 120 was released, it took a **Community** effort to clear her!  
So that gave me an idea! Why can't EN do the same? Perhaps my approach was wrong from the beginning...Maybe this is an opportunity for all of us to try her. With the talent we have, collectively we CAN do this! This could be something we as a Community share, learn, and grow from! To better ourselves and each other!  
Having this be just *my* clear doesn't matter to me as much if we can ALL have this clear! I wonder if this is how it was designed...  
  
The Woman who Entices Monsters is NOT a whale only clear. She is a Puzzle. An Enigma to be solved by Creativity! All the A4's and characters we have can't simply brute force her.   
I say this because I'm not interested in just a whale's perspective. I think we can all contribute. If any of you out there are experts in any field, then you know that sometimes it takes an outside perspective to provide Clarity. Sometimes "experts" can be blinded by their conditioning, their vision narrows; unable to see what's right in front of them!  
You don't need Money to be Clever ;)  
  
The Ultimate goal with this was series and my small contributions was to hopefully inspire as much as I could through my actions.   
The Octopath community is where I've decided to plant roots on the internet. I have no desire to contribute anywhere else...  
My Highest Aspiration since my first steps here have always been to be a Positive force in whatever way I could. I hope I have been successful, but you'll have to be the judge for that...  
  
I don't know how y'all over on the EN side will take this Call to Action, but please do understand I mean what I say earnestly and sincerely.   
  
If no one feels compelled to take me up on this, then no worries. I'll keep trying and posting any breakthroughs I may have. If I've offended anyone or you just think the idea is stupid, tell me that too! I have no intention of causing harm to anyone.  
IF anyone does, then what I **can** promise you is I'll check Reddit and Discord every night (Well, night in the US) and will be happy to help with sharing what I know, performing the attempts with any new breakthroughs, or just discussing theories.   
I do have one Stipulation. I don't want to just ask a JP player how it works and just clear it without EN giving it a fair shot. That doesn't sit right with me...I think WE can do this!  
  
There is a dedicated Thread on [  / discord  ](https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa2FSNHRhUnhoSThOdktndGFEdkFBVW9UbS1QZ3xBQ3Jtc0trMnhhQUZnbXRlcHU2QXZ3OFhiUDV2UE4zc2xaR0JJSUNGcC1DT2xHaUctZlpwS21pb3p5cGYzQ2NLQl81bjM1ZmVZRUZDeHlxN2xTVWZaOGJYTDVuSHIzajNnSF9iY2dFOFNFQWJnWjlmdlkzRkNyNA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2FAh3xSgtkgd&v=82gj0ru-Zh4) just for EN Cropdale.   
Or post wherever you feel it's appropriate.
