FFRK - The Second Coming (FF7) Event & Strategies

[Alvinho]

o9yi - Shout

I always update it with synergy gear for current event, but I only do so after the previous event finishes (i.e. will switch to FFVII synergy after FFXIV event finishes, etc.). Over 300 MND (with synergy) in most, if not all relms. MND values always updated with and without synergy in friend message.

Having a hard time deciding on set-up for FFVII CM here.

For Sure:
Zack 77 - Apocalypse
Cloud 80 - Blade Beam
Aerith 80 - Healing Wind and Dragon Force

Maybe:
Vincent 80 - Chain Shot
Tifa 66 - Water Kick
Yuffie 66 - Nothing
Barret 53 - Satellite Beam
Red XIII 80 - Howling Moon (Ether)

Will have to egg:
Cait Sith

I'm probably going to do a Shout strat, so will probably need to carry both Shellga and Protectga somewhere. Yuffie would allow me to bring one breakdown dance, but egging Cait Sith will allow me multibreak.

Vincent can pump out AoE damage with summons or MM/DZ, but Tifa could take more advantage of Shout.

Really hate these 60 stamina CM's. The U+'s are fine for trial and error because of 1 stamina. Having to leave and restart the U ones really kill daily orb needs.

Definitely gonna do Sephiroth (Shadow Flare and Black Materia), Barret (AOE DEF Down SB), Tifa (ATK+35% aoe buff), Cid (Hyper Jump), and Cait Sith (ATK/MAG -50%). May do Shout or may just simply switch to another form of hastega since Tifa will be bringing ATK+35% to the party.

You better not fail!

[Robertfb]

You better not fail!

I'll be shocked if I do considering my whole team is blinged out with FF7 synergy

[Ratatapa]

Opinion by rereading my ULT+ CM strat

What you think is better

Cloud Lv80 with Drain Stike (r5) + Full Charge (R2 or 3)
Zack Lv 80 with Powerchain (R2 or 3) + Full Charge (R2 or 3)


No special SB for any

[Alkar]

Zack. Powercharge combo is crazy powerful.

[Ratatapa]

Will do then

[Mertron]

sephiroth hurts.

[Jem]

1/1 on Seph U+ but he wasn't actually a joke as his damage output is pretty damn high. That could have easily been a wipe late on. And my 7 synergy is ridiculously good.

[arus2001]

Trying to do CM for Ult. Fucking sucks when they get AoE happy. -.-

[synistar]

1/1 Ult no medals lost. 1/1 U+ medal lost on damage. Will have to wait til Monday to get some xp on Aerith and Red XIII to attempt CM

[Moridam]

VVRN - I've got Tyro's BSB up if you have a use for it. I've enjoyed it quite a bit. Also have Lightning's BSB.

tyro BSB was super clutch for U+! i ran auron/cloud/ramza/relm/tyro, even with the absurd layers of mitigation my comp packs natively, his damage output is pretty nuts. no idea how much ultimate meteor hits for but i assume it's a lot. definitely would not have cleared it without magic blink + the extra bit of damage saved off break commands; i narrowly avoided a couple S/L where characters just scraped by with probably 100hp left, heh.

[Corwen]

1/1 full medals CM on U with:

Zack - r3 powerchain / r3 full charge / fist dmg+ / helicopter thingy
Aeris - r5 curaja / r3 protectga / dr mog / planet protector
Cait Sith - r5 curaga / r1 multi break / mako might / toy soldier
Vincent - r3 dark zone / r2 memento mori / devotion / shared shellga
Yuffie - r3 thief's revenge / r2 mbd dance / katana dmg+ / shared shellga

RW divine guardian

Gave up for now at around 0/20 trying cm on u+, no native trinity pieces for ff7 aside from shared medicas, I get absolutely destroyed on the last half even with triple stacked power breaks. Ended up smashing with my a-team 1/1 with 2 damage medals lost.

[Moridam]

btw, CM is definitely bugged for this event. i only brought cloud to U & U+ and cleared both somehow.

[Robertfb]

God Ultimate CM was annoying as fuck, had to exit and reenter because Shout was not helping when I was getting raped by magic, so I switched to Quisty RW and after a few S/Ls, managed to finally get them all fully breaked and healed up the party, then proceeded to rape them.

[Robertfb]

Ult+ CM is near fucking impossible if you don't have native hastega, Seph deals so much DMG you are forced to use RW Wall, had him with Power Breakdown + Cait Sith ATK/MAG-50% SB + Protectga + Full Break and his counters were still doing 1500+ as well as his AOEs.

[Robertfb]

Apparently CMs are bugged atm to where you don't have to have any FF7 characters in order to get the rewards, people are reporting going in with 0 FF7 characters and still getting the rewards.

[Karbuncle]

His damage output is insane and I don't have a native haste to ran into the same problem as you. Said fuck it and went in with my A team after two failed FF7 only runs.

Also I still got the Cid mission reward when I beat it with my A team. Idk if it glitches out or what but I went to collect my U orb and got the 2 major holy as well.

[Corwen]

btw, CM is definitely bugged for this event. i only brought cloud to U & U+ and cleared both somehow.

Confirming this, didnt get the screen announcing the mission clear but reward became claimable after bringing cloud on a successful clear.

Thanks for the tip
