Decided to pull on banner 3 for a shot at any of the USBs instead of pulling on banner 5 like I originally planned. 1/11 Zack BSB. Not a dupe but holy poo poo what a gut punch. Then of course stupid me pulled salty and set off the Desire Sensor (TM). 1/11 dupe Cloud BSB2. Never pull.

Finally! Double healer was the key. I LD'd Aeris and replaced Shelke with her. I had plenty of healing to deal with the counters so I started spamming Thundering Quadstrike with Lightning after USB. Then finished with her AOSB. I also had good RNG. Not too many counters and OK was the only one who got stopped.

iPodschun posted:For 3* fights I would try to power through them to get to 4* fights. The 4* magicite drops are so much better in my mind that I wouldn't bother farming 3*s unless necessary. I agree with this. Do the bare minimum 3* fights until you can beat a 4* then farm the crap out of that one. Like ceaselessfuture said, the passive bonuses from 4* magicites are insane. Way better than I ever expected the to be. The best part for me is using them on non-magicite content like 220s and 260s and Crystal Towers. They help a TON.

Anytime I try to take time off of healing to do literally anything else (like cast hastega), I immediately eat poo poo. I don't get it and it's annoying because I'm pretty sure I have all the pieces to beat it My Ixion runs involve a lot of resets. I always have to wait for a run where he does NOT Savage Aerospark on turns 3 and 4. If that happens I'm gold. Otherwise I reset

So I'm building my first Siren team and need a little advice. Current theorycraft team: Seifer - Dark Chain - Not sure what abilities I should use/craft/hone OK - pUSB, Wrath, Entrust Selphie - USB, Curada, Shellga My best options for the other slots are Orlandeau, Cloud, and Shadow. I have Orlandeau USB and Cloud USB, but I'm not sure which is better. Cloud can break the damage cap with darkness abilities after USB entry and Orlandeau thirstycasts darkness abilities which require more hones. Orlandeau and Cloud are also both LD. For Shadow, I have his BSB, LMR, and I can easily LD him and maybe hone a dark ninja ability or two. I feel like I should use Orlandeau or Cloud because it will probably result in more damage for less effort but I also don't know which darkness abilities are the best to hone. I really don't think I should be using the one that hurts me because it's magicite and they hit hard. I also don't want to use both Orlandeau AND Cloud because I don't have the orbs to hone enough abilities for both of them. Well, I might, but it would drain me pretty hard and I still haven't attempted Hades either. So I kind of want to use Shadow and either Orlandeau or Cloud. Also, is it a good idea to double heal on Siren? If so, I assume I would drop Shadow? He would build the chain the fastest but I feel like he would also do the least damage.

Fister Roboto posted:For my sub-30 Siren I used basically the same setup as you, with Cloud and Shelke for the last two slots. Yeah, Cloud doesn't currently have any dark abilities, but you can just entrust to him and spam his USB. I did have Aphmau USB for healing though, so you probably won't be able to sub-30 it like that, but clearing won't be a problem. Thanks. I LD'd Shadow and did some honing. RNG is poo poo though. She hits way too hard even with wall and Shellga up

Avalerion posted:There’s something about a blue haired witch wanting to destroy the world but it deliberately takes a backseat to just loving around. Still better than ffta1 where Marche is the one destroying the world because he can’t bear to see his friends having fun. I hate this argument. He doesn't hate his friends and he doesn't want to "ruin their fun". Hanging out in a fantasy land is fine once in a while but trying to permanently run away from your real world problems is incredibly childish and I'm glad he forced everyone to live in reality because I have an intense disdain for people who try to run away from everything bad in their lives. It's no different than unplugging the computer on someone who has an MMO addiction. It's a good thing.

Fister Roboto posted:Cloud USB and Zack CSB is more than enough to dps Golem, and you can easily sub-30 it with two entrusters and Ellara USB. You don't even really need hones, just get two bars for Cloud and do USB->BSB->CMD1 spam until it's dead. If you can somehow get off another Cloud USB entry while his EX Mode is active, the next USB entry does hilarious damage.

Here is my current team: The RNG I'm talking about is the AoE interrupt. Ramza casts chain first turn and Affliction Break on the second. He recasts it around the 15s mark to prepare for the second AoE interrupt. The thing making me want to spin kick my phone through a wall is when I start to recast haste after the dispel and it gets interrupted. If I don't kill him before wall wears off its over. Iris casts BSB ASAP after casting her hastega crit fix SSB first turn. The astra is always on time for his mass debuff so I'm ok there. The only other thing I can think of is replacing Larsa with Selphie for the Last Stand USB but IDK if that will help at all.

Fister Roboto posted:If you have enough dps, you can skip Black Cauldron, which means that you can use your astra for the interrupt. You've got Ramza's chain and (I'm assuming) Orlandeau's and Marche's USBs so that shouldn't be an issue. I'd replace Larsa with an entrust bot to get Iris's astra up in time. Could you please elaborate more on this? I keep trying a bunch of different things you guys are saying but it only gets worse

Unlike other torments, dark is literally the only element in this fight, so you don't have to worry about anything else. Thanks. Looks like character order matters. Ugh. I already have resist accessories so I just need to reorder my nerds.

MarquiseMindfang posted:Cleared out all the Jumpstarts, and also this. Tiamat is the hardest 4* magicite in general. From that list I would recommend you use Relm BSB for Last Stand and bring 2 other characters to Wrath/Entrust to Relm to spam that BSB while the other 2 do all the damage. It will take some time to get a rhythm going but I think it's possible.

MarquiseMindfang posted:Oh, poo poo, just realised I have Raijin SSB. That's better than Relm USB for Tiamat, right? It'll immediately get Vivi into Trance so he can start doubling Voltechs til he can blow his BSB2. I'm guessing I should take Wendigo for Magicite, too, and as many Dullahans as I can be bothered to farm. Raijin SSB is what I used to consistently clear Tiamat. It took a few initial tries to get the order of operations down, but once I did I never died unless I got distracted or wasn't paying attention. Even knowing you can't die it's a really tense fight. Here is my team:  Raijin should Lifesyphon on his first turn while you feed him meter, then on his second turn he should SSB, then all of his turns after that should be SSB. Nothing else or you will die. For a sub 30 I had to LD Squall and Ayame to double cast. I only needed 1 piece of +ice armor for each of them to cap damage. Wind resist accessories are mandatory. Her first few AoEs are scripted and they're wind attacks. After you get the Last Stand train going you don't care what she does. Warning: you will be REALLY close to death right before the first Raijin SSB goes off. The only time you should need to restart is if Squall gets hits with a drain strength before his BSB entry. After that he doesn't care. He can still cap with BSB2 command 2 or close to it. Main magicite is Wendigo for ice imperil to help sub 30. 2 Maliris and 2 Isgebind are the subs, both are fully inherited. I killed Maliris and Isgebind a zillion times to make sure Tiamat went down as fast and hard as possible. She's terrifying and like Fister said you really want to try to sub 30 her because she goes off the rails after around the 30s mark.

Is it worth Legend Diving people just to improve my progress on the new torments? I'm thinking no but I want other opinions. I already have Voltech so I'm not really chasing any other abilities right now. However I do want a bunch of the other rewards. Plus it's really the only challenging endgame content right now until 5* magicites hit. Example: I could LD Larsa for double cast white and Reks for double cast spellblade which would probably get me a sub 30 on the FF12 280. Both are solid dives for the future too. I have both of their BSBs so I'm not wasting anything. I'm mostly concerned that I won't use them much in 5* magicite fights and only in events or this specific torment.
