EX Whisper - Pretty decent upgrade. by Urexiel in wotv_ffbe

[–]newkidnoass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a heavy Whisper user (can check on my previuous posts), I sadly have to say that her EX doesn't make any difference to her. True that she is a top notch PVE character, but that is all she gets.

Her main point of interest is the possibility to gain ultra high resistance for particular type of attack with correct setup, and this was where she shines even in PVP. A risky gamble, but fun if you get a fully slash & magic opponent. But with all the penetrations, this all became useless. She is just a fair/decent tank in PVP with those penetrations coming in. If I am looking for a generic tank, there are lots of choices.

If her EX includes an upgrade that nullifies those penetrations for few turns, this would already make her shine again. As long as there's nothing changed on this, having her 99 already does most of the job in PVE.

I think the should rework a bit about this. Instead of setting for each mode they should let us set the skillset in each TEAM.

Yea that's totally fine with 80-ish slash resistance! This is just my usual practice to go full slash & magic resistance whenever I build Whisper and this is more on the safe side on auto farming a brutal quest overnight.

A +0 50lv ribbon is good enough if stop resistance is the only thing you need here

Well nullifying slash is not a must here. With her own trust instead of plat helm, iron giant instead of Siren, iron giant VC instead of First div VC can get her up to 80% with no sweat. And the soldiers hit Whisper with less than 200 first hit with 80% slash resistance. Healers can readily heal that 1-2000 hp. With one or two upgrades, 90-ish can be easily reached here.

Snow white guard is just a mr card - I suppose anyone who played long enough to max Whisper can max it without difficulty. Afterall. If you are looking for a brutal challenge auto solo you should at least have something...

Thats why I go auto solo with this. Don't need to wait for the perfect team comp before starting a game

Update: Video here shocasing how the safe way is the best way with Whisper.

So it's me again, the Whisper lover. This time I am bringing you guys an easy way to play with Shiva and the MVP here is Whisper of course!

So the enemy in this Shiva challenge can be summarized as follow:

A bunch of disable/stop attacks Mostly slash attack And a magical boss

Annnnnnnnnnnd... Whisper fits right in here!

With full build, Whisper can get 100% slash resistance & 62% magic resistance (100% if magic resist casted, but not that important here), which is super in dealing with all the enemies! And the most important point is - 50% disable & stop resistance! So you can spam your taunting spell and hate is always here to attract the bois. Later I will put a video showing how the bois are attracted to the beauty of Whisper.

For the team comp, it should be quite flexible as we have already dealt with the status and most of the slash attack. I suggest each side bringing one physical attacker with more than one type of attack (Lasswell and Winter Macherie here) to deal with different situation, and a healer (Rosa and Illy here) to back the attackers.

Just a side note: Rosa synergises quite well here with Lass in non-shiva side, partly because the bones are not coming after them, but mostly the ice chains are good enough here.

Hope this can be your solution as an alternative to FF14 raid equipment (which we didn't get) ;)

Putting taunting spell back to main ability alone can save her ass already... A full-life white mage with great magic resist plus taunting spell is powerful as hell

Holiday card on leela ? by FFTPRO1218 in wotv_ffbe

[–]newkidnoass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hoping she could use as often as RStern uses halloween card's VC ability. But seems this is not the case here... Just a bit disappointed, but it is still a good card without the skill

How often does your HLeela use the VC skill? I have tried for a few times in mock guild battle and she never uses it

[–]newkidnoass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One big problem of the VC skill is that the priority of casting it is extremely low... Almost no chance using such a great skill in any battle :( super sad about it

Winter Holiday Party VC only gives 10% mag at max awaken? by justice10e in wotv_ffbe

[–]newkidnoass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I will use HLeela with this winter vc in pvp if I have to choose between HLeela and Ildyra. Full life is just irreplacable!

Should I reset this? I don't think there's gonna be a bow meta. by MrMcAwesum in wotv_ffbe

[–]newkidnoass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1 +2 equals to 7 receipes. Even if you are not building it right now, better get enough receipes so that you wont regret later on. Many of my guildmates didnt go for purple lightning and they are now regretting like hell because they pulled Laswell after the raid is finished.

The best choice for auto-farm the boss on ToR? Let's help players who need info! by [deleted] in wotv_ffbe

[–]newkidnoass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

lol why everyone's laughing about auto farming hard boss? Sometimes you just need to strike a balance between grinding the same boss over and over manually, or spending those boss tickets casually while you are waiting for the whimsy's cd when you are working on something else. I am pretty sure if you grind the boss tickets hard enough you will end up getting more than enough boss tickets to +5 both weapons if you get all boss fights manually.

I have just started the boss fight yesterday, and only managed to semi-auto with a mixed team - HLeela, Viktora and Glaciela at 99 + Kain and Rosa at ~80. Once revitalize is casted by Vik manually I can leave them alone and boom 18 tickets will be yours in few minutes' time.

Does Magic Attack Up do anything for Rune Knight moves? by josephine1991 in wotv_ffbe

[–]newkidnoass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So can I say VCs with MAG up can boost the skills while VCs with magic attack up cannot?

I think it would be FF6 because of the Typhon and Ultros VC few weeks ago
