I subbed in Terra and Rydia and honed Multibreak to R4, and it was going pretty well (that damage holy poo poo) until... I got hit by Fira and Fujin's AOE at the same time and someone died. I think I'm going to go with plan gently caress it. Thanks for the advice anyway.

Finally beat FF8 160 to get my third MC3. Any advice on who to level up? I'm in between Vaan as I have his OSB and BSB, or Yuna as she seems to be a mainstay in my team for her miracle veil. Maybe Gilgamesh as I've got his BSB and retameta is useful? The other MC3s I have used on Ramza (for shout reasons) and Orlandeau (cos gently caress you FFT event for not letting me choose).

Vaan's RM is pretty strong (30% physical damage boost with a dagger equipped) but also pretty situational - I can't think of many times where I'd want to bring it along instead of taking a stronger physical weapon and a different RM, but if you've got a decent selection of daggers to take advantage of synergy bonuses then it can still be handy. Yuna's RM is really good if you are running a summoner - especially if you have Alphinaud's BSB or something, since the summon damage boost applies to those BSB commands too, afaik. I think Devotion might still work out to be a little stronger, but I'm not sure on that math, and in certain situations it's probably worth giving up the difference in damage for not taking a defense / resistance hit. If you wouldn't get great mileage out of either of them, then it comes down to picking who you'd rather have better stats for - personally, I tend to notice the difference more in damage-dealing characters than with dedicated support / healers, so I'd probably go with Vaan unless you have issues with Yuna being too squishy.

I'd say Vaan is a good choice for MC3, he just barely doesn't hit 5 hits on Thief's Revenge at 80, so he needs a couple more levels to get there.

Also Vaan BSB is one of the best ones in the game, so that alone is a pretty good reason to level break him as far as you can.

I dollar pulled viii-1 and picked up Raijin's staff. Is this what I needed to justify hit and runs and finally beat some torment dungeons? It seems really good if you can stack a few bars ahead of time. How many charges do people generally generate before using the defend command, assuming you're at the attack soft cap?

I love all of Raijin's relics, he's just a fantastic toolbox of a character. I've benched him now that I'm working on getting my VII and XIII teams ready for the next two events, but I definitely see using him a lot in the future. I'm glad just about all of the Disciplinary Committee relics are recurring in the next FF8 event, since I still need Fujin's Jacket. I'm sad I didn't end up with her Dagger too though, and I'm half tempted to pull again in the next ten minutes just because I don't think I'd be sad even with dupes. But its best to save for anniversary/synergy for the next event.

Elephant Ambush posted:Educate me on Raijin's BSB. I have it too but I can't see why it's good outside of torment dungeons. Because you get an en-element SSB damage entry, 4 turns of off-healing, then a stronger-than-OSB en-element-boosted finisher. The entry is 664 potency + en-thunder, 4 uses of command 1 nets you 4 40% max HP heals, and then command 2 to close out the BSB timer gets you 8x162 (1296 total) potency of thunder damage, before considering en-element. Physical OSBs are 1200 potency, for reference, though their maximum damage is higher since an 8 hit Raijin Detonate caps out at 79,992 damage. It's not the best DPS in the game or anything but the burst damage is insane, especially if you have the gauge to immediately go re-BSB and get the en-thunder bonus on the entry.

He can fill multiple roles depending on how fights are going. -I am a bad player as evidenced by the screenshot above where I had to kill CM U+ Biggs/Wedge with the reflect from Seifer's BSB after they annihilated everyone else I had.

This is more evidence of you being new than bad, since you probably just lack a lot of the stronger abilities that long time players have accumulated and honed over the game's life. If you'd had those along with your FFVIII relics that you pulled from the banner, you probably could've easily mastered it. But even without mastering it, you were able to apply what limited tools you had and still beat a fairly difficult fight. Give yourself some credit here.

I wouldn't really call Raijin much of a toolbox character. His ability options are outright horrid, so he's entirely reliant on his BSB to do the heavy lifting. His celerity upgrade is laughable too. Without his BSB he's only really good as a Nemesis killer once we get that. That said his BSB can be ridiculous if you're willing to build around it. It's the burstiest of bursts you can get in RK and once we have Cloud's ex mode you can do really silly things. Not that good for anything below ~160ish difficulty though.

I managed to solo Apocalypse Bahamut easily enough. The Megaflares hurt but I brought Vanille BSB as a roaming warrior since Wall was pointless, and was able to patch myself up quite quickly. Mostly I was worried about running out of steam before winning, but I made it just barely. I have to stop doing these battles on Sunday. I'm way too lazy.

Welp I had his Hauberk, so Gabranth is now a one man endark/darkfeeble machine. I'm very sad I don't have Cid's BSB, but I can always RW it. Prepare yourselves, holy hero ultimate fights  Not sure if a solo lightning vuln SSB is good or not? I do have Raijin's BSB, but I usually don't find myself using single SSB characters as much now.

It's the biggest burst damage option in the game, and if you amortize out the damage over the turns you spend charging it up and releasing its still competitive with some of the highest DPS loadouts in the game (it doesn't quite beat, but is in the conversation with, stuff like PC/FC-> OSB Orlandeau), while spending 80% of his turns doing perfectly competent offhealing.

Raijin BSB is excellent in any fight you think will last 8 full turns. So, combat nightmares, torments, particularly long U++, and apoc multiplayer. The damage with 6 charges is absolutely ludicrous, as though he'd been attacking the whole time when he was actually healing.

Three of them are neutral and the other two are weak to one or the other of dark and holy. Raines BSB is the preferred cheese strat, yes. It's not as simple as just RWing and winning in one shot though because they get brutally nasty at low health.

For Mandragoras I used Raines BSB RW on Ashe and Vayne, had Ashe use command 2, then switch to Tiamat which was able to hit 3 times(had Ashe's Stoneblade for stats). Had Vayne just keep spamming command 2. They went down quick once I did this.

2x Raines BSB works fine if your other three slots are carrying Blind, Stop, Sleep and Confuse. Between them, Balthier and Fran can cover all four status's, and then just single target attack the blinded and stopped and non-statuses dudes with basic attacks or whatever while Raines-Ashe and Raines-whoever burn them all down.

If you have Raines BSB native (or another BSB that's good for damage) and don't want to bother with the CM (c'mon, it's only two power orbs  ), consider RWing Jin (Fujin's Unique-tier SB). The AoE 25% Affliction Break isn't going to completely stop the status fuckery coming in, but between it and the physical blink, you have a lot more wiggle room.For those who own Jin natively, consider bringing Fujin. She can use Phantasm to Sleep the lowest/dark weak mandragora and can either bring Stop (to shut down the middle/holy weak one) or one of the other weakness elements to smack around some pumpkins.

Forgot to bring a source of Dispel for U++ Hydro, Mastered it anyway. Mandragoras were actually a one-attempt kill, although I'll attribute part of that to my very strong XII synergy. Native Hastega on Larsa, and a combinaton of Multi-Break (Penelo), Shatterheart (Fran) and Pyroclasm (Vaan) really watered down all their damage bar Scream. Meanwhile Vayne threw out Raines BSB. Got them all down without needing the second shot of the RW, too. Fran brought in R2 Affliction Break to toss onto them individually between Shatterhearts; not sure how much that helped but the only status I saw was Blind on Larsa.

Welp, talked myself into making a pull on this banner for another shot at Ashe's BSB. Didn't get it, but I *did* go 4/11, finally breaking my terrible pull streak with: Nightbringer Chaos Blade Gabranth's Hauberk Cloud Staff  Guess I, uh, better feed Gabranth some eggs. One step closer to my dream of having an A-team of people that just look cool. Combo medica + hastega for a realm I had terrible synergy in is pretty nifty, too. edit: Is there anything special about this BSB command 2? Kinda looks like I'd never want to do anything but spam 1, unless I'm missing something. Not that that's a bad thing. edit 2: Also just realized that I have 3 physical Dark BSBs now, so I guess I have a dark team finally. Maybe it's finally time to break into the dark orb stash and hone some of these abilities. I was saving them for Dark Zone + Memento Mori but at this rate I'll never have a dark mage team.

I started playing the 17th of January and just yesterday managed to beat U+ Wedge and Biggs which felt really great. More so because up until this point the few Nightmare bosses and so on (including Demon Wall) I just cheesed with FFT Cid's OSB and hopefully lived through the last 20%. This time I used Tyro's wall, and went to town with a bunch of 60s which included Mustadio (Full break AOE) Ramza, (shout) Squall and Tidus' BSB's for damage and Eiko's reraise SSB. I feel like I've passed a milestone and went on to kill a few more Nightmare bosses. I definitely need to hone Full Break one more time (only two uses is grim) and get a whole lot more stuff, I'm looking forward to the Orb Fest and the anniversary and move on to getting some synergies going. I have to shout out to the OP for making me try this game, its been hella fun.

Welcome to Apocalypse MO fights, where DeNA tries to gently caress you over as cruelly as they can. Home of the MO Omniscient fight where he's vulnerable to Berserk ... but his only attack while Berserked is an unblinkable, undodgeable, unmitigatable 99,999 damage melee hit. And he still uses Rewind if you hit him with melee attacks, because gently caress you.
