Alter A.I.L.A. Genesis

Neok, let me just start off by saying that you've done an absolutely amazing job on this game. The original was quite fun, but the additions you've made to Genesis have been nothing but good for the game. Love the new combat system and how you've not been afraid to let bosses get hit by bad statuses. Makes in-battle tactics actually matter instead of pre-combat planning being all that matters.

That being said, I like the overall level of difficulty you've implemented in the game. There have only been a couple of fights I thought were getting a bit much.
I'm looking at you, GWeapon. The only boss I had to cheese with my entire "bomb" supply just to squeak by (Admittedly, if I had remembered the "Unequip All" command that fight would have been a bit easier, but the insane defense it had would still have been a major issue with my lack of spell/tech abilities on survivable characters). Also, there was one random encounter with 3 red mechs in "beneath Ceres 1" that decided it would be cool to open the fight with 2 Spellfire Barrages and thankfully a normal attack instead of a third one, dealing about 2000 damage to the whole party. Needless to say, Scott ran like a little girl after that one. Thankfully, that was the only time I got two in a row from that encounter, so I just chalked it up to bad luck. Hopefully no one get's lucky and is on the receiving end of three of them before they get a second turn. Besides those two instances, everything has been either manageable, or manageable after slightly altering your strategy to help accommodate for theirs.

Only thing I'm gonna ask is a list of where the floaty guys are and for which location they are for which character (IE: Gray in the factory, Erin in the Abandoned City, etc.)

Currently, I've been trying to find all of those as well as all of the Soul Mirror battles. I'll list the locations of places I've found Joker and who I assume the new ability is for below in a spoiler tag. Does anyone know any others I might have missed? I've checked each one except the third one in the list with each of the main cast in Phase 8, and any one marked with question marks doesn't fit any of them.

Stynx - Main Prison - Red
Charon - Slums - Silvra??
Charon - Warehouse - ??
Isle - Factory - Tinder??
Pathos - Sewers - Jake
NML 1 Ceres - Gray
Bridge Facility - ??
Rebel Base - Main Prison - Hawk
Pallas - Abandoned City - Erin


I guess I'll end with a couple of questions. First, I looked and didn't notice this question in the posts since release: How many phases are there? I'm in Phase 8, and while it has a very final dungeon feel about it, I'm pretty sure due to other hints in the game(Soul Mirror and Jokers) that this isn't the end.

Second, has anyone found the the Soul Mirror fights(little glowy orb things near a save point) in the Dam Facility and the Slums? They seem to be even more cleverly hidden than the Manor's (Which I'd have never found without a save point to mark it). I've looked them over a couple of times so far and can't quite seem to find them.
