FFRK - To Have and Have Not (FFT) Event & Strategies

[Classikmage]

Oh snap, we got a Lode2!!! MC list cleared after this event is finished!!

[kuronosan]

Definitely going to spend some mythril/time finishing Delita and Ovelia to as high as I can get em. Mustadio... maybe.

[Korialstrasz]

Compared to the artwork for every other enemy, it looks like Millueda has backwards feet. 0/10, worst event ever.

[kuronosan]

Managed to get Delita and Ovelia to 70. Meh.

[Moridam]

this is what i brought in to U:



actually had to reset once because i couldn't get slow to proc by the time i killed it, though it probably wouldn't have mattered. still, never want to risk it with the 60 stamina fights. with all those buffs stacked his already small HP pool doesn't hold up very well.

brought the same group in to U+ with some minor adjustments; tyro brought in armor breakdown and esuna and ramza swapped MBD for full break. tyro got silenced pretty much right away so the esuna was a waste of a slot. used an HotE RW here as well, which let me not have to care about recasting shout so i could just go for it and use his second bar on BSB as a finisher.

[kuronosan]

I ended up bringing in Quisty for backup because the 4 party just wasn't cutting it.

He fucking SPAMS Bio.

[Moridam]

yeah, the bio spam is no joke. for more sane/reasonable setups, you'll definitely want an extra layer of magic mitigation and a real medica. y'shtola's would be ideal here, probably.

[Skai]

I imagine bio spam is what you'd want. That's all I got for my 1/1 attempt, nothing but bios and it was a smooth sailing. Didn't get any silence/stop/slow at all. And with Cleansing Strike, magic breakdown, wall, and shellga, the bios were hitting me for 300-400.

[Classikmage]

Spoiler: show

I forgot to snap a picture of U, but I pretty much brought the same setup for both, except trade Banishing Strike for Power Breakdown on Ramza and Dismissal for Tempo Flurry on Fran. Full medals on U, as well. 1/2 on both for pretty much the same reason, I underestimated the magic damage on both the first time through, SL'd and pwnd the shit out of both the second time through. I thought the status debuffs on Cuchulainn were going to be more of a problem then they were, nothing landed except poison. The only real danger was the Bioga spam at the end, but Mist Overload, Magic Breakdown, Shell, and Pride of Tycoon trivialized the hell out of it. Cleansing Strike probably helped too but he was going down so fast I didn't even get to use it until like 30%, Ramza's Banishing Blade, Agrias' Saint's Cross, and Pecil's Attack Command BSSB move were all hitting for capped damage. Pecil's initial BSSB move was doing about 30k.

U+ was easier than U.

Bio spam was great. Fully stacked mitigation and it was hitting in the 180s and w/ regen RW basically canceled it out. Didn't have to heal at all

This 100%. The AOE Bio spam pretty much made Vanilles 'Miracle Prayer' usable every 3rd turn (Lionheart) for full heals and +1 ability use.

...also having 3/5ths of my A-Team made it cake. 1/1, no medals lost on both.

[kuronosan]

I guess that was the difference for me. I brought a full Tactics team, else A Team would be overkill at this point.

[Ratatapa]

Booo not enough stamina to do U this morning, will have to wait after work

[Kirbyprime]

beat both, no medals lost for either... having Ramza on waifu tier also helped.

[Akiyama]

Beat both, 1/1. First one I completely forgot about Slow and when I killed em I was like "Okay more BLMs come out I assume?"

nope. no more BLMs.

U+ I had to beat with basically no healing from about 50% because Yuna got silenced forever so lmao. Oh well, P. Cecil/Agrias/Greg MVPs.

[Kirbyprime]

After this fight I'm actually wondering if r4 SC is better or if I should try to make 2 r3 SC instead.

How come?, Saint cross, Alexander, Diara(ga), Banish Blade are all good Holy spells

[Kirbyprime]

Well, not this fight specfically, but with Shout, and bias I guess, I tend to favor physical DPS along with Knights a lot. It's fairly common for me to field 2 knights which could both use SC. Right now I'm using r5 banishing strike on my other one.

I actually don't have Alexander honed since I only really use summoners for dailies now. =/

[Ratatapa]

well guess i have enough data to do U and U+ woo

[Uzor]

How do you even use more than 4 SC in a single fight? O.o I find most things are dead by the time I reach three.
