just reporting in to say that yes RWing Hope's Divine Judgement Burst makes the U++ pretty easy

Any opinions on which available mc3 rm unlock is the best?

I auto-battled through the event and don't think I saw roulette used even once. :shrug:


I'll trade you one of my 1/11 pulls of Excalibur IX for your pull! If I keep getting 1/11 pulls I'm gonna flip my poo poo. I spent so many months saving up mythril for the improved draw rates, only to end up hovering around the absolute minimum possible draw rate after multiple pulls.

The game has seen through your plan and adjusted accordingly

I have a feeling that these Cids Missions for U++ are going to be kicking my rear end for the foreseeable future. U+'s I could do with relative consistency but these U++ are nutso and require some ridiculous synergy and/or luck.

beat U++ with many layers of mitigation

Full breakdown (Fran SSB)
MAG+DEF Breakdown (Vaan BSB)
ATK+MAG Breakdown (Agrias SB)
ATK Breakdown
MAG Breakdown
DEF Breakdown
Shellga
Protectga
Wall

Probably could have used a Mug Bloodlust (ATK+DEF Break) but I haven't gotten around to creating/honing one up

wall saves a big chunk of damage. he only has one def ignoring attack. the rest are big attacks that will be mitigated

mastery conditions are land stop, use lightning, and reduce attack

i didn't use any mitigation because i was counting on him not doing anything but flash, which was exactly what happened

I beat necrophobe after figuring out how to time mist overload, armor breakdown, and mug bloodlust to land just before he hit 80% and using shatterheart to turn on/off the atk and mag barriers simultaneously. Went to phase 3 but I had a keepers tome to buy time until he went down. Didn't master one time because two people got flared the first time but second time only one got killed for mastery.
