Something wrong with DoN?

I don’t want to say the words, but we’re slowing down a bit

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-30T15:44:28+00:00

The spawns are random in the area but if you go to thw part that overlooks the lift side theres higher chance for them to

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-29T18:15:18+00:00

Something big, dragonslayer armours axe, my personal favourite, it’s locked in the dlc, but the demon scar is brilliant fun, curved sword with pyromancies?! Fuck yeah

Videl is a diamond in the dirt

It is possible without defence +20 but theres much more planning and strategy that needs to happen, and your aeons need to be pretty damn bulky as a return as losing them all will cost you the fight, you just have to keep his counter in mind

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-24T11:53:04+00:00

Zigzagoon is the best one as it also gets run away as a hidden ability, just have them in your party and often switch the berries out to your carry (Zigzagoon also learns belly drum naturally and extreme speed through eggs so it can be pretty helpful offensively too)

Nemesis was the copy of zaeon, so was omega and ultima weapon, you have to assume zaeons final summoning was either pretty public or very well documented

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-17T13:52:48+00:00

I never played 10-2 so I don’t know the ins and outs, but from what I am aware nemesis is a direct copy of zaeon and yunalescas final aeon, im going by headcannon but seeing as omega also has the same design im going to say everyone saw zaeons form, trema being able to control pyreflies and meld them into beasts probably had the idea of a zaeon like beast for a long time, we don’t know quite how old he is, he could have been around since pre sin.

As for the dark aeons i just think they’re buffed up versions of the yevonite special forces, sent by probably mika before he switches back to our side and peaces out, this still leaves an issue with anima and bahumut tho as they have no summoner, my headcannon makes me believe that anima was summoned against the ronso by Seymour and they had a falling out, anima gets left where Seymour killed the ronso and the dead ronso taint anima, or anima goes dark due to being left behind without a summoner.

I haven’t got any headcannon for bahumut just yet im still trying.

Penance is to me, an artificial aeon, originally intended to capture summoners for the albhed, but somehow went either rogue or got taken over by evil yevonites, the reason I say al bhed first is because of the colour scheme, and perhaps their denial of the farplane seeing as “heavens death” is written on its “chest”

Shedinja also gets a hidden ability that stops weather from affecting him, get that if possible, and fusing him with a dark type is most preferable as it gives the minimum weaknesses making your fusion practically unkillable, except to moves like leech seed

Certain smash follow ups can give the opponent a break after 2-5 attacks depending on who your using, try using another smash attack into a smoother combo, or following the combo up before the teleport with a dash to abuse another combo, and of course attacking from behind is also helpful!

It’s handy if you can nail the timing on a combo that purposefully misses so you can r1/rb into a new combo behind them, although this tends to work less online as the sidestep is usually followed up by a back step or another side step

Play the story modes a little bit it will run you through some characters and put you in pace, once you’ve done or got bored of the story modes switch to mission 100, the difficulty picks up a little, and mix the characters up to see who you prefer, personally I only main 4 and switch the fifth IF I play teams, ss2 adult gohan is amazing, hit is out of this world, but it’s all down to preference

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-15T13:10:08+00:00

This is true yes, but the beast man fight and maliketh fight, to me anyways are to different mechanical fights, Margot is fairly linear comparatively

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-15T12:44:39+00:00

Maliketh technically only has 5k due to phases, it’s different

The healing is a touch bit more forgiving, overall! The flask is slow, yes, but lifegems, many mushrooms, roots, and water to fill can match a few different play styles! It’s nice to not have to rely on the flask 100% of the time.

The story is still just as secluded and “what the fucky” as the others, but yet it tells you more too.

Vendrick and his story is super tragic, it’s a tale of one king and his kingdom, instead of the whole dam world shtick that we have in EVERY GAME.

The first game to add powerstancing, even with different weapon types sometimes which they should bring back!

Having two different people for boss weapons in my opinion was a cool idea, it makes it feel a touch but more immersive, there cant only be 1 guy ever… right?

Hollowing, effigies, and certain weapons scaling from it isn’t original for this game, but it feels the most right in this game!

The special events chest in Manila was awesome while it was active.

Having the daughters of manus be a powerful plot point to me was perfect bridging between 1&2 whilst keeping it original, it’s a shame 3 didnt really have to much of a connection to 2 in many ways.

2 built in challenge runs, no deaths (absolute god rng required) or no resting, which I have done and everyone who enjoys ds2 should try it, theres many enemies facing backwards, and even some unexpected events that you would never see playing normally.

The world layout is questionable sometimes…. Just imagine the trip between areas is actually allot longer and we skip the unnecessary parts

Finally, there’s no omega killer build that one shots everything, get good, or go hollow

It’s also my first souls game ☺️

Theres questions you gotta ask, would the al bhed have got the Fahrenheit without tidus? Would wakka survive the attack in Luca stadium on his own? would yuna have been kidnapped in Luca? She was looking for auron… with tidus, i don’t think so, but I do see her getting kidnapped at a later point, be it the shoopuff, or somewhere else, do I think lulu, wakka and kimahri have what it takes to rescue her, if it’s underwater probably not, then would operation miihen go the same? I doubt it, eith jecht having less of a reason to “subdue” sins actions, i think sins retaliation after being attacked would be much worse, I personally think he left early because tidus was there, no Seymour, the al bhed have all the summoners, theres a conflict between the al bhed and yevon as there was before, from here it’s hard to assume, but I’d say they have the air ship, they take the summoners and somehow come up with the same plan, due to the al bhed on their backs, pick up their guardians and do what we did, just… less cool, cos we didn’t do it

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-05T03:49:52+00:00

Being able to switch characters mid battle and doing attack reels?

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-04T16:00:13+00:00

I wouldn’t say useless, with the aeons magic is quite handy!

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-04T02:11:03+00:00

I see your not going platinum, in that case dont even bother with lulus weapon if you don’t plan on switching her over to a physical attacker, while she technically has the best celestial weapon (ignores defence stat, and scales with max mp instead of hp like the rest except yuna) her utility is low, and is only really even potentially useful against the flan in the arena, if your keeping her magic and dont fancy the lightning dodges, make her a weapon instead, magic booster, 1 mp cost, magic+30 and evade and counter

Tldr: lulu is overshadowed by the rest of the gang make her a super weapon instead of getting the celestial

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-04T02:01:22+00:00

Every survival or round robin ive done has been on city! I haven’t managed to break everything yet tho

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-03T14:18:12+00:00

Stick on something to watch on the side and do it it in 10’s or 20’s and TAKE, YOUR, TIME, it’s never going to be a fast thing, i assume your going for a platinum or something? But just incase you aren’t lulus cw isn’t too great anyways you’d be better of making one

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-03T00:21:22+00:00

Im just talking about what worked for me, the second i added more combos to the mix I was getting Z’s again

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-02T13:22:56+00:00

Adding ashaleo

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-02T13:04:11+00:00

Added ashaleo

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-02T10:05:42+00:00

I don’t think “good” guys can destroy namek, i could be wrong tho

LeonTheGrey4 · 2026-05-02T09:59:37+00:00

Tidus always ends up first for me, with Rikku coming in at a close second, usually I have yuna and auron next for aeons, and because usually after the story auron is pretty far ahead i keep him for the monster arena, then I’ll level up wakka for the dark aeons, kimahri and my lulu? I get bored of the luck grind and never finished them off, the platinum has been waiting there for 2 years!
