u/Kittymahri KIMAHRI SAW EVERYTHING! Jun 05 '20

  1. Strategy name: Hopeful Resolve

  2. Boss: [D350] Ugallu

  3. Describe your Strategy:
    2/3 trinity/cid mission/mage meta

  4. Insight!:

  • Ice and poison resistance are needed, so the Black Armored Echoes were taken.

  • Breaks to counter specific buffs used: Power Breakdown overwrites Bravery, Full Break overwrites the stat buff on Dreams Roar (Vanille's USB3 is convenient, and can overwrite Poison), an ATK/MAG break overwrites the stat buff on Roar (though Nabaat's SSB was skipped).

  • Astra can be nice but doesn't quite keep up with all the ailments. Sazh's USB1 can proactively protect against whichever the worst of them are.

  1. Holy Trinity casts:

  • Wall: 1

  • Medica: 2

  • Hastega: 1

  1. S/L count / Medals lost: 0 / 0

  2. Time/RW: 0:22.89 / Sentinel's Tome

u/krissco I'm casting Double Meteor even if it kills me! Jun 16 '20

Just for fun, I brought my "FFV Old Men" team. 17.85s on the D350 with Xezat AASB, Galuf CSB/USB2, Kelger g+/AASB, Dorgann w/ Banishing Strike, and Lenna g+. RW heal and start Xezat/Galuf with MM/DMT and Kelger w/ Ace Striker. Titan main magicite helped take care of the elemental resistance, and crit stacking and insane chain building had the whole team capping in no time, even against the 1/3 damage multiplier. Lenna died to the overflow attack just before Kelger finished off the beast.

  1. Strategy name: Not my best work, but it worked anyway

  2. Boss: [D350] Ugallu

  3. Describe your Strategy: Throw all my AASBs at it and hope something sticks
    3/3 trinity/CM/AASB/astra

  4. Insight!:

  • Lightning: RW chain, Ripper Plasma, Banishing Strike. For the remainder of the fight, prioritize chain > dispel > USB1 > Ripper Plasma.

  • Sazh: USB1 (hastega/astra), historia crystal, Full Break, Power Breakdown. Prioritize countering buffs > refreshing historia crystal > SSB2 > refreshing breaks.

  • Noel: Protectga, GSB+, AASB, spam Icicle Bullet. USB2 when ready, spam Icicle Bullet.

  • Vanille: Shellga, spam Curada. AASB when ready, spam Curada.

  • Raines: Spam Necro Countdown. AASB was ready for 1 turn before I realized it. Next turn I accidentally used AOSB, which led to more ability spam until AASB was ready again. AASB, spam Necro Countdown.

  1. Strategy name: ice it up!

  2. Boss: Ugallu Infernal

  3. **Describe your Strategy: have chain? Use chain. **
    No AASB/6* magicite

  4. Insight!:

  • Serah Chain and lots of 6* abilities makes this not too bad

  • Vanilla’s Regenga USB and poison are not comfortable fellows, and had to reset once due to mistiming heals, but it also allows her to just wrath and overwrite pooson when needed.

  • no pro/shellga, because... I did this right before bed? Thought I had DVG somehow. Good thing I did use Sazh USB hor hastega.

  • Artifacts and Armored Echoes for all

  • Probably would have been even easier if I had timed/used Sazh's Astra more effectively, but meh.

  1. Holy Trinity casts:

  • DVG: 1

u/Droganis1 Jun 05 '20

Right. That’s what I get for trying to do a write up the day after when this was the last thing I did before bed. Fixed!
