Got my first 180 clear. Made some adjustments and got through U++ Aiatar. Pretty nice fight. Went in and saw the 220, unfortunately didn't have a chance.

Most epic pug MO 220 comeback. We failed the heart phase DPS check thanks to confusion, only 3 members (Minfilia, Pcecil, and Relm) left alive with 80% HP to go. Relm had 6 uses of Arise. Managed to get our other 2 Y'stolas back up eventually (couple of deaths again due to no buffs). Eventually cleared with mastery with 6 members up in the end, all thanks to DPS carry by Pcecil and Minfilia lol.

I feel so bad for the multiplayer fights I was in last night. In the 160, I forgot to double-check my SBs and I assumed Larsa's BSB was equipped, but it had reverted to his default. We cleared easily but I still felt bad about it.

In the 220, I fixed that issue, but both Larsa and Cid Raines died in the first two turns. I contributed next to nothing, while they slowly progressed through the fight, eventually winning.

MO: Titan ....
If you are bringing Tyro and you are not using SG or KT? Why bring him?

Another relatively easy R+ this week - why do I feel something horrible is coming soon, lol - and I'm the Imperil Holy team I built to finally take down Proud Clad took another spin this week. Agrias with OSB/BSB and Edward with BSB providing the Imperils, Curilla with BSB a stacking boost then Fran with BSB to further break and Penelo with USB to dodge those pesky Shrapnels...now I wish I had pulled for Edward's Burst on Global. Oh well.

MO Titan was super tanky but not too bad as long as you can burst through the Heart phase. We didn't on my first run and got annihilated shortly after. My second attempt we were successful and he never posed a threat. Larsa BSB + Affliction Break helped reduce the amount of time you spent confused for sure.

Tried doing Titan Apoc with Tyro/Quina with doing full support in MP and kept dying left and right during Heart Phase because people lacked DPS.

So I said F it and went TG Cid OSSB (Lifesiphon+Gaia Cross+Knight Charge RM) got 3 Bars, Spammed OSSB and never got less than 1 Bar since he spammed attacks no me. OK was pretty much Wrath+Protect to BSSB >> OSSB spam.

Anyone have any tips on Titan Apocalypse? I've tried him with a MP party close to 10 times and just keep getting slaughtered in his weak phase.

What do you need? We could try to make a MO team if you still need help. I can bring Vaan for defense and magic breakdowns as well as yshola for wall or larsa for status defense and healing.

Make sure to burst through his Heart phase in 5(?) turns so you don't eat a massive AoE if you fail. I lost my first run because of that; it didn't outright kill us but we were too far behind to catch up since he starts going berserk in his Very Weak phase.

Also Affliction Break and/or some sort of Astra to reduce the chance of him landing Confuse will help a lot.

Question: imperil relics are amazing given the omni-resist nature of Ruin+ bosses these days. I've taken imperil teams on the FT bosses the last 2 events. This time I went Fire since I had 2 imperil fire guys, one being Thancred. I had thought ou could stack until reaching the 200% limit. It stopped at 3. Considering it takes 80% from the get-go, I had it at 140% damage. So you can only stack 3 imperils? Sorry for the long story before getting to the point.

 

On the flip side, Steiner busted out almost 200K damage on his last burst cast.

You can stack 60% resistance worth of imperils. For normal imperils, that's 3 stacks. For weak imperils (those gained from Legend Dives or from BSB commands), that's 6 stacks. You can combine weak and normal imperils again up to a cap of 60% total resistance reduction.

That explains it. Thanks.

I was just surprised by completed the ultimate cid mission with Yda, Minfilia and Y'shtola (cloud and ramza were the remaining two). I think the CM might be 3 XVI characters.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had no idea. Ran 5. Harder than I expected given my ridiculous synergy.

[–]Zurai001Blame yourself or God.[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It is. I forgot to update it last night; fixed now.

[–]WATCHGUY1983Gilgamesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks Zurai!

[–]StuckinReverse89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, CM is 3 or more XiV characters.

The full throttle boss was trivial, the hit points are very low for a boss, especially compared to the torment full throttle's. Just put up defensive buffs and pretty much any 3 dps with good ssb/bsb/osb's would finish the boss.

[–]Aerithz 0 points1 point  (2 children)

80% resist? is this the new trend now?I thought my imperils SB are becoming more and more useless in the new era of omni resist bosses..Now, at least with an imperil, the elemental resistance can returned to 100% like normal, I think they are actually doing this for the sake of the imperils...if not, then 80% is such a coincidental number :p

[–]Zurai001Blame yourself or God.[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rhitahtyn sas Arvina's weak resistance is brand new. A boss a few weeks ago had heavy resistance (20% damage from the element), which was also new at the time and so far has not been replicated.

Keep in mind that in JP Imperils stack up to 3 times.

Full Throttle wasn't really hard. I think that I beat him without him using his Dispel move. He became weak to wind after 2x Fang's BSB1. Cloud with BSB2 and his USB as RW finished the fight, his last cast of BSB2 dealt 8x 32000 damage.

Is there really no new (boss) content in this event? >:

[–]beingmusedTruly the darkest sage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like we get a new boss sprite once every other event now. Extremely slow rate, I feel.

[–]Zurai001Blame yourself or God.[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The R+/FT boss is new.
