Shit man, now I really do want to tell you because one of those is kinda right, but I can't tell you because it was so mind blowing when he used it on me and I figured out how it works. I just don't want to ruin you the brickshitting.

>Everything I've seen paints Scarlet Grace as being one of the most difficult SaGa games ever.
Scarlet is pretty difficult overall, most of the boss fights, especially the unique bosses like Macha are very tough, the only easy special boss I've fought was Marigan but I fought him very late on so I had statistical superiority , and they really should have given his summons more HP.
I too was following one japanese player and when he got to Firebringer and saw all the bullshit he was pulling he said "何だよこのマソゲ!", many people had to reset Macha's battle multiple times because if you get the tactics and pacing wrong you might as well just reset or watch her nuke you slowly with Crimson Flare breaking your max HP threshold.
It's a tactics heavy game based on planning, the BR here boosts the enemy stats a lot so that the only way to keep up is forging better equipment, but forging requires ingredients locked behind battle conditions, so if you don't fight battles with those extra handicaps you won't get upgrades and the enemies keep getting stronger faster than you do...Its great, it has some problems but it's great.
