I'm getting annoyed that one possible thing is holding me back from finishing Titan that isn't gear related.... more Soul Break slots
1. and 2.) -- rainbow anything without Elemental Boost, even armor (unless you need something realm specific early on).
3.) Lots of folks went with magic daggers -- I don't recommend this though. Make 2x MND daggers, for healers, and maybe a de/buffer. You will get enough stones to make any weapon you need. I started making weapons in preparation for Odin, and was able to make 3 character specific weapons for EACH element Physical Team, and three character specific weapons for EACH element Magical team, combined with the 2x MND weapons I initially made... I'm still sitting on 15 stones. -- When torrments refresh I still have realm specific weapons sitting in vault to use.
finally knocked out my 5th odin tonight, could've done it ages ago if i'd been more patient but it's easier to wait for powercreep. fire team of course, used all my goodies from b3
locke sasb/aosb
sephiroth aasb1&2/G+ & wcast samurai LMR
balthier csb/aasb
elarra complete package
tyro aasb
didn't really have to bother with all of the precise timing these fights normally require (alternatively i got stupidly lucky with rage breaks & zantetsuken timing), just stocked meter until balthier was ready to go chain > aasb back to back. locke arcane chopped a good percentage of the final phase before the party stun. sephiroth and balthier brought it home with wcast procs under a capped chain micrometers away from expiring, and i finished sub-30 for the first time.
still have wind/light/dark/bio left, but i have all the accessories now, probably try and focus on 6* stuff from here on out.
I to, just recently cleared my 5th Odin. This weekend I followed it up quickly with my 6th Odin. Only Holy/Dark weak are left. I'm tentatively building a Titan party so I'll be attempting that fight soon.
Any reason to power through Record Dungeons ASAP?
Only Crystal Waters from what I can tell. You'll also want to finish up any missions that will reward you for completing Record Dungeons. Maybe play up to one that has no battles and I think you can skip to completion for mission credit.
You do get an OSB for Tyro at the end of Chapter 1 I think.
There should be missions to clear 10 of them for 5 mithril total + waters. Counts if you find one level with only cutscenes and skip everything.
and are waters, game breaking or not that much?
HP waters were required for low HP mages like Elarra, Rydia, Aerith, etc. to break 10k HP with 2x Health Boon 8s and ignore 9999 attacks to not trigger last stand. Record boards fixes it but Aerith doesn't have a board unlocked for a while iirc.
I record board Rydia and she went from 7.2k hp to nearly 9.8k hp lol. Ignored putting points into HP magia which is 500 hp.
Mag-Ramuh knocked out in 28 secs. Rydia AWSB+Sync, CMD1+Chain Stonja absolutely crushed him. Ellara sang mage song, Red XIII chained, Tyro did Grimoire, but then entrusted one SB to Rydia, Maria… was there... but honestly, she coulda been anyone.
Okay, so I'm looking at my Titan Party and thinking it's pretty good, but I'm missing a few things that some of the clears on reddit have.
Cloud - Glint+, Awakening, USB1, USB3(was thinking of using lenses),
Tyro - USB4, USB3, USB2, Awakening,
Elarra - Glint, USB1, USB2, Awakening,
Faris - AOSB, SSB, bUSB, CSB,
And one of these two:
Bartz - AOSB, BSB(Wind), Awakening2, Awakening1: I think I may swap BSB out for Unique as it's lighter on SB
Zidane - AOSB, OSB, USB, Awakening
I think depending on who I take, the main magicite will swap from Typhon to Syldra. Faris/Zidane have imperil so I'd likely take Typhon.
Climirage is okay if you need the enwind stacks, but usb1 is the money maker. If zidane usb is imperil then that's a very good one with awakening because the one hit chase will usually break cap.
I'd go with imperil still. Just don't heal into the % gravity attacks and titan hardly does much damage.
After struggling a lot so far with Bartz in there I'll jump over and try out Zidane. I can reliably get into Phase 3 (I think). In fact, I'm pretty sure I would have had a win last night if Faris hadn't died unexpectantly a second time during phase 2.
What I had settled on was trying to keep the non-reusable SBs in my toolkit until after the first wall is down. The wall itself is a bit of a pain where only Bartz is capable of taking it down because I can't seem to get Cloud's damage over 50k with his other abilities. I took his Glint instead of his OSB, but that may be something I address.
Man, I'm going to echo Syn's complaint about USB slots. That seems to be holding me back quite a bit. I could likely have this if I didn't have to choose between something and Cloud's OSB. I did grab his USB for a renewable source of en-wind. The armor itself is one of my best ATK+, WIND+ pieces I have. I also swapped from Elemental Weakness+++ to Physical Damage+++ with a Sword equipped. Bartz was the same but I gave him the Dagger one.
So got all magites for 4* wind and Ice, will start working on earth soon
Im guessing that Arcana are not farmable? best place is still EXP dungeons?
If you have a sub 30 4* that's likely better than exp dungeon.
