woo DU16 done
20+ rolls so far since my last five-star.
sigh.
That doesn't seem that crazy.
zzzz, trying to get Cloud RM3 before I do Ultimate. This is going to be annoying.
Kinda sad to see Yunalesca-U is so easy with usual Advantaliate strat, oh well.
I'll probably hold off on doing more of DU17 until Thursday, need to farm daily for orbs
Purpose of Advantaliate is so that if you're too undergeared / sick of S/L, then you still have a way to win and thus continue to play. Unless you really want to be that guy on reddit that spent 20 mythril on beating ExDeath Ultimate.

Then there's this guy who can barely win even with retaliate
I missed some very important RMs and MCs so, this is the best I could do with the things I have.
Comp: Cloud RM Self Sacrifice - Retaliate R5 / Tempo Flurry R4 (4** sword with rs)
Tyro RM Seto's Will - Double Cut R3 / Carbuncle R1 (4** with rs)
Lenna RM Oath of Tycoon - Renewing Cure R5 / Shellga R1 (4** with rs)
Y'shtola RM Dr. Mog's Teaching - Curaga R5 / Boost R4 (I have Thyrus)
Wakka RM Thief's Code - Double Cut R4 / Full Break R1
RW Advance
Got through +++ first try no save/rl and with enough stamina for ++++
......... Forgot to bring Lenna. Now I'll have to use a mythril for stamina refresh in order to go back and master it and do exdeath
I really disliked the counter mechanics on Ex-Death, and ended up taking 2.5 hrs S/Ling even though I have Boon and SG in my party (no 5* RS weapons). Counter Hurricanes or Dispels, followed immediately by double AoEs is almost guaranteed to kill at least one party member, and there is nothing you can do about it.
If I had to do it again, I'd consider using retaliate or reflect, just to get past the annoying counter mechanic.
meh almost beat Ex-death on the first try.
Had like 1 more hit to go and instead of going with firaga, wanted to double cast venom just to be safe (2 spells etc) and he's null to poison dmg. Then i died
Edit: ok that wasn't too bad. Took me 4 tries
Guess we're due for another 3 pages of whining about Retaliate.
Spoiler: show
On a more serious note, hoping the future Ultimate, will be a real challenge and not just a RNG fight
Kidding, the whole game is RNG based!
