Yeah, I've been using Larsa since I lucked out on his BSB quite a while ago. Can't say I notice the Astra but I assume its just been helping without me noticing. Especially as I really notice when status effects mess me about. Larsa has Wrath too

Bismarck is now on the list of reliably beatable magicites. I actually ran out of keystones for the first time ever. So I think I'll rebuild my stock a bit, grind some levels for my waterbuddies, and then go rattle Living Flame's jaw. And then it will just be Mist Dragon I have only beaten once and then after that I can start thinking about the four star ones.

Some day they will release the 6 star dark matter, and then these Tidal Knuckles will really clean up. And I will also have the most magical sword there is. and no gil

Two of Rikku's thingy. Well, could be worse. I do use her in Literally Every Fight.

Ugh I need more keystones gotta beat up more magicites c'mon.

Can pretty consistently get Flame down in 36 seconds. Need another really good water person. Tidus wrecks face but Bartz just isn't quite specialised enough. His multicasts are good at least

Oh my gosh I was just about to say I wish I had some Ninja things but you've reminded me I got Edge's USB a while back. Might need to hone some Ninja skills then. Thank you for the tip

Sep 11, 2007

Well I'm convinced, thanks everyone. On both that Edge needs some attention from me, and that the torments are worth doing. heck, I should just have a ninja week or something

e: gently caress, I always forget Fujin. whether its that she does wind stuff or is a dang ninja, I just forget her every single time

e2: I just have ninja blindness or something

Ha, was just wondering the other day why Ultimecia hadn't popped up yet as a character. Or a boss I don't think. She should have an RM that turns all Cs into Ks. And Thunder God Kid would still wreck face.

Torments are kind of interesting I find, now that they are going away. Gonna try very hard to do them all since they all give mythril so stamina is no excuse

What. How. I take it there's some awful gimmick with the tentacles or something? They were annoying enough on the easiest fight

So why does everyone seem to recommend Godwall RW for Torments? When do you fire it off?

Yeah I can see Bahamut being a jerk. I had Cloud USB and BSB 2 and Zack's Chain and Imperil and Alphinaud BSB and lots of magicite and even then he was kind of rude

McDragon

Some Buster Sword that looked neat until I saw it was for Angeal, a poison burst of some sort I think it was Thancred? ah well, both new

had a rather silly tactic for that xiv fire weak torment. Involved Vivi using both his bursts in a row and then the OSB just for buff reasons. He has a lot of abilities that either make him fall over or be sad. also terra threw fire everywhere and some other stuff happened

fake edit: also those gigases are rude but I stomped them anyway

fake edit 2: ha, Gi Nattak got finished off by Cloud USB doing 75,000 damage a hit. drat I love wind weak enemies

not sure I'm gonna finish them all, not entirely sure I can be bothered with the rest. maybe one with bravery motes

McDragon

So last night with a bit of remembering things I'd read and things I have I realised I had a great potential setup. Basically Relm BSB and then get Vivi and Terra to blow themselves up into Trance. Hidon got entirely hosed and I want to try this out against Sealion I think

Had five torments left in the end. One of those is XIII so it doesn't count because gently caress Barthandelus. Who's idea was that, it'd be like having the IV Torment be Rubicant

I forgot all but the easiest versions of the weapons and zeromus, oops.

Elemental challenge thingy was easy until the bomb fight but Relm's BSB sorted them out in the end. Gonna use her more often, Last Stand is great. The one after that can gently caress off though. Guessing that one wants a chain or something.

took seven tries in a row and got very silly towards the end but sub 30d the bastard at last

Bartz Water Burst dupe but whatever, always lucky pull is my policy

e: also Jenova Synthesis and Bizarro Seph were nice to see at last and they got the music right. not done the harder difficulties yet, knocked out more realm stuff and got like two XIII2 Elites left. The latest Tactics Elites are rude. Which fits I guess since it's the notorious demon assassin twins

Well, every character I have is now at least level 65. I have 80 caps to break now, and then I am free of the tyranny of Memory Crystal IIs. My stock of eggs can finally start to rebuild.


Fister Roboto posted:

Use LM2 (w-cast combat) and LMR2 (w-cast wind), build up 4 bars through whatever means, and then do USB->BSB->CMD1 spam. CMD1 is a wind combat ability, so it can proc both materia and have a chance to triple cast.

This is always tremendous fun. Just so many big loving numbers all over the place

I wish you could just turn off the cutscenes in the whatever dungeons. Or if the skip function just needed one press. It's tedious but I just have to get that mythril and water.

I just like that elements is Bartz' thing. Well, the four main V ones anyway.

Also The Boys Are Back not only got that song stuck in my head, it also had quite a nice stack of 4* motes which was nice. And specific series teams was a neat gimmick.

e: also I broke all the Level 65 caps, hooray
