    Well, that was an interesting AI even though the actual battle was pretty easy. Physical mitigation was the way to go and just zerg him down as opposed to stalling. The fact that phase 2 and phase 5 share forms is very useful since you can stack debuffs there and have them on for the final rout. Didn't see any ajas, just blew him up.

    Sorry that the bonus battles didn't make it in time guys, been limited to once every week to both catch up on FFRK while doing writeups for the events, i'll finish the bonus battle info in a bit and then work on finishing some of the other event info.

    Ultros is a pain for me with a synergy team since I lack a medica with Relm.

    Edit: got him. Then kicked his ass after subbing in Ysh and Palom.

    Decided to try for CM again after I got Terra's SSB. She was kicking as Phase 5, lol. She was literally using Magitek Missile every turn for the entirety of P5.

    Went with: Terra(MM), Relm(PoL),Celes, Setzer, Kefka(HW)

    This was my first CM victory that required a full party for one realm. (Did the Ramza/Agrias and WoL/P.Cecil CMs)

    My synergy for FF6 is definitely the strongest now even though I lack a medica for Relm. This took a few tries because of that but having BSBs for Terra and Celes really helped.

    After getting Gau, Celes, Realm and Setzer to 80 in Sundaily (Terra was already), CM was a breeze.

    80 Realm - Curaga, Protectga - Paintbrush - Lionheart
    80 Celes - Blizzaga Stike, Banishing Strike - Default SB for shellga - Ace Striker
    80 Setzer - Full Break, PowerBD - no SB, Gift of the Shinobi (+10% thrown?)
    80 Gau - FullCharge, Powerchain - Meteor Rage - The Zangan Way (+20% Fist)
    80 Terra - MagicBD, Blizzaja - Blood of Espers (fire proc) - Dr Mogs

    no medals lost.

    Fucking... tried to go without bringing Shell with Garnet RW. Keep dying because every nuke 1 shots any of my characters.

    Honed SC to r4, barely had enough DPS to kill. CM / Mastered

    Mighty Guard VIII > Divine Guardian if you're not bringing your own shellga (Shell is +100% RES while Divine Guardian is +50%)

    Thanks, I'll keep that in mind for next time. Might have saved me the need to hone SC =/ Burned through them in an attempt to minimize the number of nukes going my way. I suppose it's still useful regardless though.

    1/1 CM as well. Celes+Locke pretty much killed the boss on their own.

    Had to redo for mastery as 2 people died at the end on my CM run, and he just melted under my A team.

    got up through +++ for the first time! I found that actually easier than ++ because it's only one enemy.


    Beatrix: Beryl Serpent RW mostly
    Balthier: Poison Shell until it's gone, then Watera Strike
    Ramza: Shout when it was up, otherwise just Double Cut
    Faris: Defense Breakdown, Tempo Flurry, Beryl Serpent
    Selphie: Shellga, Curaga


    Beryl Serpent, Poison Shell, and Shout make this a joke. not going to attempt Ultimate; seems beyond my reach and not worth the hassle anyway. still, moving on up in the world!

    You should give it a try. This Ultimate boss has very little HP and most of the attacks from the adds can be completely nullified by Draw Fire+Retaliate combo. They still have an AoE attack but Protect+Wall should be enough.

    absolutely agreed, with shout + full breakdown burst you should definitely have the damage to clear it. might need to S/L a couple of times to get your opening mitigation up cleanly, but if you can manage that you're golden.
