The Dissidia banner in JP's listed, and there are Dark times ahead.quote:Sephiroth's Genji Blade [AASB, +10 ATK] - 15 single-target Dark/NE physical attacks, En-Dark, Darkness Awakening Mode, Break Damage Cap Level 1 & 500 SB Points to user Edit: Banner 2 posted:Sephiroth's Cetra Blade [AOSB, +10 ATK] - 20 single-target Dark physical attacks & single-target Dark Overflow physical attack There's also a minor change to the Doom mechanics coming: currently, players can't overwrite their Doom counts, only enemies can. The change makes it so ANY Doom cast will overwrite a current counter IF the new Doom count would be less than it currently is. (e.g. Doom 45 -> Doom 30, but Doom 30 can't overwrite Doom 18) Hogama fucked around with this message at 14:37 on Sep 28, 2018 |

If you can RW Auron USB1 (Alkaid), its debuff combination is the exact opposite of Gabranth's enrage self-buff: ATK, DEF, RES. Due to the coding, it will overwrite the buff completely, and that's a 75% boost to his damage and defenses you can wipe from the table.

On the Ultimate++ Gogo fight, if you can manage to mimic him properly (you need to bring Firaga, Flare, Holy, and Meteor) for four turns, he will be Satisfied and have an easier moveset for the rest of the fight. If you mess up at any step (including not casting the proper spell before he casts another one), he goes into his Angry moveset. Satisfied moveset: Physical: Attack, Critical (Single-target), Critical (AoE) Magical: Holy (Single-target holy), Flare (Single-target), Meteor (AoE) Angry moveset: Physical: Critical (Single-target), Critical (AoE) Magical: Meteor (AoE), Snowstorm (AoE ice), Blaze (AoE fire + 18% chance to Sap), Aqua Breath (AoE water) Additional: Maelstrom (AoE 30% chance to deal 99% current HP), Haste (Self Haste) He doesn't get any kind of stat boosts (though he'll always Haste when he goes into Angry mode), so there's no particular need to play his mimic game if you can handle more aggressive incoming damage.

There's also the weird side-case of multi-elemental skills getting boosted by the chain number even when it's impossible to damage the enemy with the chain's actual element (e.g. using Meltdown on an Earth chain to hit a Wind-weak enemy that's immune to Earth damage - Meltdown will still get the +XX% boost from the chain, even though the elemental field is effectively useless). Like, ideally you'd always have the proper element on hand, but it's something you can think about when your options are more limited.

Gau has a curiously high (for a character who literally only has Combat and Celerity) MAG score of 172 at 99. The usual "pure fighter" MAG score tops at roughly 149 MAG. (Also, the Gogos would be decent choices if they did add the school, even if that would give VI three Blue Mages.)

They did, and it includes things you've already sold and rosetta'd before it came out. Probably because there's some section of your account that has tracked that since the game's release. As for relic limits, at this moment I will presume that it's a list that goes to a certain event date like most selections, at least until I see the release list.
