Ok, question about what I'm assuming is late chapter 11: I barely squeaked by on Galian Beast, which was a bit of a wall for a couple hours and now I've hit a second wall with Roche of all people. I feel like I'm missing something fundamental about this fight because I'm having a hard time even building up my first ATB bar with the amount he dodges and he wrecks me in short order. I'm not sure if I'm underleveled (full party is currently sitting around level 42) but are there any tips anyone can give about beating him?

Oxxidation posted:you can't Punish Counter him like most enemies because he likes to use projectiles if he catches you blocking, so use cloud's blade beam (attack out of a dodge) to whittle him down and build your ATB at a distance Capfalcon posted:You can only hit him after he attacks or when he is pressured, so dodge the magic attacks on the ground and counter the sword attacks in punisher stance. Haste on yourself as soon as you get an ATB bar does wonders, too. Once you land one hit, you can keep pounding on him. Ultimately took this advice and got him down in a few more attempts. Thank you both!

You mean (Ch. 12) Rufus, don't you? What I wouldn't give for a mid boss checkpoint.  Whelp I gotta go make dinner, here's hoping my PS5 doesn't reboot overnight at this Game Over screen.

Woo, my PS5 didn't update/reboot overnight and left me at the game over screen. Got (ch. 12) Rufus down in one more attempt.

Finally beat Rebirth and hit credits earlier today. Clocked in at ~80 hours of play. While I have some complaints (most minigames not being fun, Red XIII and Cait Sith not clicking well with me in combat compared to the rest of the cast, the 2-3 times the game sends you into long boss gauntlets, sometimes with difficulty spikes I just was not prepared for around chapter 11/12) overall I had a good time. I'm glad I hit the point of no return and went back to do a bunch of the side content I skipped. Cosmo Canyon ended up being my favorite open world map to tackle that I had completely skipped up until then. Really enjoyed the Temple of the Ancients, I liked the light puzzle solving, how if you got lost the black cloaks would literally point you in the right direction, and now I can't help but imagine Aerith dual fisting two 2-liters of Mako Dew cackling like a madwoman obliterating everything around her with lasers. Actually started clapping with joy when I got another Reno/Rude fight. Mixed feeling about the story, especially with regards to the whole multiverse shenanigans, but that might just be because of bad timing due to multiverse fatigue caused by the MCU. Starshower continues to be the best ability to use A++ would obliterate jerks with it again.

Heithinn Grasida posted:I’ve noticed that too. I wonder if the game sometimes changes the order of your active party members after cut scenes or something. I mostly skipped most side stuff until I hit the point of no return in chapter 13, but between going back and clearing as much side content as I could stomach (10-15 hours according to play time) and then finishing the game after the point of no return (another 8-10 hours according to play time), plus everything between chapter 11 until then...there's a lot. It's a lot.

The gliding will continue until morale improves.

Blackbelt Bobman posted:I agree, that would be really helpful. Maybe too strong for something like Sleep? Cloud raising his buster sword and whispering "Sleep." before he swings it. The rest of the party looks on in horror. [Edit] Barret/Aerith put on their sunglasses because they know they're in the splash zone.
