given the discussion of SEs, and the desire to make DQs a positive effect on the game, I don't think the following is off-topic
Could we please get the OFSG updated to include essential equipment?
I recently decided to do an SE DQ, and followed Pardoux's plan. I spotted from the kill log that someone had killed 4 Fushiyoma in quick succession many hours earlier, so thought that would be a good one to hunt. I eventually found one halfway through the second realm (i.e.after quite a lot of walking), only to find that I needed a longsword of fate to kill it---and that needed a lot of items to invent it.
Since I'm at EOC, and my stam is overflowing, I wasn't tooooo bothered. But had this happened to me 2 years ago, I probably would have written off all similar DQs as very bad jokes after that experience.
The simple fix (well, simple to conceive and simple to state) is to include such information in the UFSG creature descriptions.
[PS this information IS in the wiki; but the wiki is not definitive and does contain mistakes, so it would be nice to see this information in the "ultimate" guide.]
