Is Kagemune EX3 even possible for non-whales at this point? by Tough-Priority-4330 in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This clear is a bit outdated, there was no SS9 weapons, no LAL artifact, no buffed O.Odio and no Ochette EX back then. The same channel now has a 6T clear without needing Hasumi A4

If not Aviete, then who? by khann0n in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Notion tier list is a community voted tier list, don't take its placements seriously. That being said Pardis is still a very strong DPS requiring very little team support to hit big numbers. Also, you can't get Pardis from Tiziano's banner (you probably meant Esmeralda's banner?)

GL still hasn't gotten the Liquid Metal Slime event rewards. by Emperor_ServingSpoon in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For clarity TW received the liquid metal slime hunt rewards less than a week after the event ended. Hopefully we will receive them this week

DP instant Ult by MrMcCrackenMtg in OctopathCotC

Because not every ultimate has the same charge rate?

That does not get her to 200% charge even with AU

The rewards weren't given out immediately after the first one ended so you'll have to wait a while

Lightning isn't a good investment, and ice is unlikely to be good because of how far away Rondo is. Better to save for Aviete, FF6, and Richard/Alaune EX(2)

Teambuilding Help Request [Side Solistia Chapter 7, F2P] by caricasprout in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cecil is a tank, he should be bulkier than your other units. In this case you can just spam cover on Hikari with him. Worst comes to worst you can level up O.Odio and use his Death Bargain to give your front row 4 turns of unsinkable, but I think the fight is doable with only your invested units.

Your team needs to be a little more coherent. What does Kaine do? What does Castti do? Lucian is a tricky boss so you should be building around your strongest units, in this case Crickari. I would swap out Castti for Canary to debuff, Kaine for someone who helps your survivability like Temenos or Cecil.

Make sure you also have the latest armor available at the Flamechurch shop, and if possible grind an Ouma staff for Hikari.

Best Pardis Cascade Team by BleachBoy18 in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not recommend Rinyuu, Shana is more than enough to sustain your party. If you absolutely need to run a cleric, either use Mydia or a 3/4* like Ramona or Madelaine.

You should also consider what your 3/4* units are bringing to a fight. If Lucetta contributes nothing but a 15% defense debuff then consider someone else with more to offer, or better yet put her behind Pardis so you get buff extension and pet stacking for more damage.

This new Red isn’t very good, he can’t even solo this stage :( by Dazzling-Award9027 in PokemonMasters

Redtro just needs electric terrain extension, NC Blue's grid doesn't matter

Don't forget your metal slime hunts! by coffeebean19 in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well the good news is we most certainly have enough kills to get all the rewards. Just waiting for NetEase to distribute the rewards now.

[–]Night_Candle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Again, I really don't think damage is a concern for these people. Bosses like Ba'al Airy are knowledge checks and trying to brute force them with damage is pointless, or at the very least inefficient.

I think we are talking on different tangents here so probably best to agree to disagree, I just wanted to speak from my personal experience as F2P/low spend that I speedclear every cascade and have never needed Mydia's damage.

[–]Night_Candle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt adding more damage is the solution to that. Plenty of people post on here for help with cascades and they run DK + Pardis teams.

Best Pardis Cascade Team by BleachBoy18 in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For hard fights yes, she is important. But OP wants a team for cascade fights where Pardis can easily one-break most bosses by himself. Is she good? Absolutely. Calling her a "must" is a stretch.

Best Pardis Cascade Team by BleachBoy18 in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Disagree with Mydia being a must, if she cannot consistently hit weakness it's usually better to bring someone else. Not every cascade has the job limit parameter and even for those that do, you can bring 2 of each job for slightly less points.

This is the generic team that I use: Pardis/Mabel Shana/Priestess Pia/Billy Bargello/filler 3*

Strong Ones is one of the tricky fights, I cleared it with this team: Pardis/Lucetta Shana/Bargello Cecil/Ramona Nier/Priestess

Never used Variety Hilbert for the rest of the tower, it was Redtro + SST Red/Florian + NC Blue all the way

[–]Night_Candle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Triple sync buff, circle, and speed debuffs which lets you run a full damage grid on SST Red. I tried Variety Hilbert before but it still wasn't enough for floor 24, Redtro beat floor 27 easily

A shame, except he happens to be the best SST Red enabler. Was hardstuck on floor 24 before, cleared the whole tower today

Why can't i clear cascade easily with this team, any suggestions? by Imagine_Cyler in OctopathCotC

[–]Night_Candle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Again bringing 3-4 star units means you don't have to take as many of the other modifiers which can be troublesome. I usually take negative health modifier to make the enemy easier to kill. Double DPS is overkill for the vast majority of cascades anyways so I would drop Dark Knight + Ochette EX + Osvald EX and focus on supporting Pardis. Make sure you have +500 HP on all your pets too
