"Y'shtola has mastered Stoneskin II." Well alright then.  Burning through as many story dungeons as I can during this downtime, since I'm only up to Babel Giant pt.1 so far (also been killing some of the earlier 2 stamina shard elites I didn't get to yet). I think if I hit 50 mithril (only at 21 atm) before the event ends I might do a 3rd pull since all the relics are nice and powerful. Thancred still sucks but getting his relics, or the rod, or the armor for Y'shtola would be nice. Especially the armor for her, since she'd become so very potent due to the AOE heal being more useful than stoneskin in some cases (especially if I'd use Tyro for breakdown duties instead of Sazh for whatever reason).

So Double Hit is definitely looking like it's the RM the game never wants me to get. I've burned half a bar trying to get it today, and nothing. (In cases where I've needed to RW-refresh I've been doing Semitt instead of Fabul Castle to try for it, too).

Jibo posted:How so? Is there a glut of multitarget death vulnerable bosses coming up? I can't think of any reason to run Odin over Valefor, Meteor or (eventually) Ruinga. I'm not talking about any bosses in particular (although lord knows they love throwing that Seymour fight at us again, and again, and again...). But it's a high-potency AoE attack with a virtually guaranteed Death proc tacked on. Good for clearing a wave of trash every stage? Check. Guaranteed one-hit KO on tougher single monsters (whose HP is often over 10,000 and can't be taken out by a Valefor or whatever)? Check (usually). Good for bosses that have/gain death susceptibility? Check. Good for bosses that come with a bunch of annoying death-vulnerable goons? Extra check. The issue with the other instant-KO abilities is they're significantly less accurate and they're not very useful outside of the boss you presumably want them for. Dungeons are getting hard enough that you probably don't have a lot of spare ability slots, so using one on Pressure Point (which can't be restored mid-dungeon, is only single-target, and 50% accurate) or Death (which is only a single cast also, less accurate, single target, and doesn't even do damage if it misses) seems wasteful. You can give a summoner a r4 Valefor and a r1 Odin and have them clear two out of three waves of every stage of a dungeon, then still have some firepower at the boss and the ability to take advantage of any death vulnerability without having to drag along a monk or waste a black mage spot on Death. And it should remain excellent even as trash gets stronger and stronger, because most trash should remain death-vulnerable and the actual damage numbers don't matter. Hell, you could put it on a white mage/summoner specced for MND and still have it work for clearing hard trash waves due to the 99% death accuracy.

KnoxZone posted:e: Ok, all the classic dungeons are completed. Time to go straight into Battle on the Big Bridge Elite. Time to see how I fare in this extremely intimidating looking dungeon. In a matter of hours I will finally be able to use that little black mage of doom... or I will be down 100 stamina. At least the music is great. In the end, that dungeon actually wasn't nearly as hard as I was fearing. The trash could survive Quake (and of course the cats are immune to it), but were all so low health that cleaning up wasn't a big deal. Gilgamesh gave me a heart attack when he casually hit Eiko for 6000 damage on my first attempt, but once I got mitigation and blind up he ceased being a threat. Just a lot of HP to pound through. Now I can finally use Vivi and his all important record materias.

I don't think it's really doable without runic or carbuncle unless you are way over the minimum power needed. I missed runic refresh by a couple seconds and he killed two dudes through shell who had a decent amount of hp instantly.

How much of a ball-ache is it to not have sentinel's grimoire/stoneskin II if my friends list is about 60% sentinel's grimoire? I have boon and whaled a fair bit on this banner, coming away with every single item except for thyrus. gently caress me right? Guessing the next good mitigation relic is Vanille's second (aoe heal+ protectga)?

Vanille's Blessing of Oerba is actually pretty terrible at mitigation. If you need the Protectga effect, you're not likely to need the heal (because it's at the start of a fight), and if you need the heal you're not likely to need the Protectga (because you've already got Protectga up or it's a magic-based boss). It's a good heal and a good SB, don't get me wrong, but the two different effects aren't as synergistic as they sound at first. Anyway, you can do just fine without owning Sentinel's Grimoire or any of the Holy Trinity. I've beaten the last three [Evil] bosses in the Japan client (admittedly, two of those are considered the easiest of the [Evil] bosses by a significant margin) without having any Holy Trinity relics.

Uuurg, I wish I would pay attention. I keep putting all my front-row attackers in the back row as I go through Elite dungeons, because I kill the trash using Meteor/Quake/Valefor every stage, and only bring the fighters forward for the boss. Which is an excellent plan except I keep forgetting to change their row. I'm pretty sure I've wasted 80+ stamina now going into the last stage only to realize I have to retreat to fix my formation. Also, screw you Saturday daily. I've literally gotten twice as many ice orbs as non-elemental orbs after four full runs.

Did an eleven pull, ended up with four 5*. Thyrus, the White robe, the XIV bow, and my third diamond sword. I think I've used up all my luck. Boosted Y, threw the staff on her, made her my roaming warrior and within 12 hours there's 25 new followers. People really love stoneskin.

If you have two, you're 100% set, and all three is just overkill. If you have boon and a healthy set of SG RWs, you shouldn't have too much problem, especially since Sazh can run Power/Magic Breakdowns and/or Full Break, so all you need is a Protectga on your white mage to be fully mitigation'd. Trying to rely on two characters having their soul breaks ready can range anywhere from annoying (in normal dungeons) to outright unfeasible (in boss rushes/EX fights), so there's a certain merit to someone else having SG/Stoneskin II as opposed to having it yourself.

Boss rushes usually start off with the easiest one so I'd say it makes sense to just try to build meter naturally on the first one or two to be ready for the harder fights later on. Those RMs seem really good for EX fights though, if you have any SBs worth using.

Yeah, the Event Rules say the quests are added 9/20. Incidentally, I'm waiting to do all the levels after getting the characters so I only have to do them once but not having the memory crystals to start grinding them up after getting their relics is really hard...

So, thoughts on combining a few 5*s? Zantetsuken, Shark, and Kaiser knuckles. Reddit seems to think even the idea is a travesty, but I'm wondering why since it feels like the majority of encounters go through a primary retaliator who you want to have at max damage.

I really wouldn't combine anything a lot of characters can use. If you're using Advance, you don't need the extra power, and if you're not using Advance you won't be killing the harder bosses quick enough if you've sacrificed everything to power up a single character. The Kaiser Knuckles you might consider combining, though. It's going to be pretty rare that you'll have two characters whose best weapon option is the Kaiser Knuckle in the same party.

I suppose that makes sense. I just guess I feel like most of my trash clears these days are quake/summons/diaga/comet with casters with refresh RMs on them, and I generally only have one capable melee character at best. Not sure if that changes down the line or if it's a personal playstyle thing. The temptation to combine is strong though. E: doesn't higher star gear also get incredibly better RS too?

Having soul breaks for bosses in the 80+ diff dungeons isn't too hard since you can take 2, sometimes 3, hits to kill enemies while still getting full medals on the trash waves. That builds up a lot of SB fast, especially if you put High Scorer on someone whose SB you want for the boss fight.
