Also, Lucia is literally the best equipped for this situation. The only people I would really leave behind is Emily and possibly Bambino, due to lack of mobility and sensory options. We don't really need Emily to be there with us all the time, and we're already making a door at the front of the cave. We can just make a door mid journey to meet back up with her and get heals or whatever, then make another door at the front and go back through the previous set.
But between the reapers being able to traverse the shadow levels on their own and Lucia being able to take Derrick with her through the hand mirror, the ideal setup for avoiding fights would be Lucia/Ira, Derrick (maybe with Reggie as a sword, Iunno how that works in regards to shadow traversal), and some reaper kids. Between night vision and the flashlights seeing shouldn't be a problem with that group, reapers can pull healing duty, and with the warm reaches and Lucia's flight mobility shouldn't be too much of a problem either. Plus we're giving them all quiet gear to avoid attracting Daesdyne's attention, and a bargaining chip and emergency undo button just in case they do.
You seem to have not accounted for Lucia being easily frightened. Thats what got her killed last time, she took one look at Daesdyne, flipped the fuck out, and was rendered completely helpless and an easy target.
No, I did. That's why I listed a time reversal item in my list before. Also, I'm not sure if Lucia is mechanically easier to scare than Derrick, or if that's just our perception of her. That's not a refuting what you're saying, we just haven't really done any experiments on that matter. Food for thought.
Regardless of whether or not she is easier to scare, she's still the best option for the cave. Her flight lets her get past most of the terrain obstacles, and her ability to go through levels of darkness make it the easiest for her to get away from Daesdyne if she comes around. Plus she is by far the stealthiest dreamer we've got so far.
If we can keep her calm, and preferably give her a knife so she can use shadow saber's fear reduction ability, she should remain quiet enough with the gear we're making to be okay.
