    Wasn't it brute force with Ninjas and not melee?

    iirc i used a summoner setup to brute force it, but you need to be able to stack a couple of magic boosts to overcome the high res to make it worthwhile over the ninja method.

    I could have bought an 11 pull and have 1000 gems left over, but all I got was this silly title.

    IIRC Sephiroth BSB is needed to brute force Curada the physical way. One of his commands ignores defense. Use it on Beatrix who gets RS to maximize the damage. Use Ninjas in the other slots.

    Beat it with a mix of Tyro Ninjitsu, Alphinaud Summons/Deployment Tactics, Yuna summons and Aerith/Vanile Diaging their brains out. Managed to still master despite two deaths.

    Just remember, before orbfest begins:

    In ~1.5 weeks we'll be wanting it to be over because were done with the grind.

    oh my god the ++ is 90 stamina now, yessss

    really that was my only knock against the last couple orbfests, at 60 stamina a go it felt like it took forever with ~3 full runs per stamina bar

    Wow, these CM's were a joke... I was kind of worried when I saw a couple you couldn't bring healing for.... pff.... didn't even need a healer any any of them anyway.

    This was supposed to be a good orbfest in terms of stamina per greater orb, so eyeballing these gigantuar rates seem to be proving that point.

    But damn, can I not get all major dark please?

    Black orbs all around, here. Having trouble deciding which abilities to hone, and I'm short 20 vit orbs on Lightning and Cloud for SPB5.

    Necrophobe now was pretty much a joke now that I have relics. Went 1/2 when I retried it, my only failure being that I completely forgot about Setzer's red card being random and it turned off all the orbs which neutered Faris' burst.
