Aerith is not weak, she has her strong points but, she needs 2 atb charges before she can start to play, which is annoying as fuck, and well, she is weaker than most of other characters anyway 😅 There are videos of Tifa doing this bellow 10 min, cloud barret yuffie and red bellow 20 min, so let's not pretend aerith it's equal to other characters, having to use 2 full atb charges to setup it's really bad, taking in consideration that she is the most annoying to build atb with, and she is ONLY good with GENJI GLOVES, which is a END game accessorie.

I have fought bahamut titan 100+ times and died the majority. Just takes hours of practice. It took a long time to learn all the timings and how to watch both bosses at once. My eyes are constantly looking at them waiting for openings. When you get Vulcan assault with Titan next to you, it's very easy to nearly stagger titan with all the rapid perfect blocks. But it's become a fun little minigame trying to perfect block bahamut/titan together. When I die it just takes another couples minutes to beat phoenix kujata and try again

Just the title is such a huge flex lol, I barely did it with Cloud, Aerith and Yuffie after 69420 tries

It has been done, holy shit man

Stop is excellent but it wouldn't make sense in this boss gauntlet. Only 2 enemies are vulnerable to it (Kujata/Titan, I think) and I kill them in one stagger. Plus it would be very hard to fit the time materia into my build

Aerith + Genji Glove is just so much fun to watch 😍

The common denominator to all these type of runs is just to be really good at perfect blocking.

Okay this is unbelievable! I even struggled with a team of 3. Congratulations!! But might I ask, why are you using Cure when you have her Limit available? That part I don't get.

@aethertruck

3 ай бұрын

Limit has special properties I like to reserve. Invulnerability is one, and it's also the only way to avoid temporal imprisonment when Odin drops below 25%. The last reason is that animation is very long and I can lose focus on the enemy. Occasionally I have been checkmated out of Limit with an unavoidable ring of helheim, grim upheaval, epemerality, with no way to avoid it. Also Limit is hard coded to heal exactly 50% of your max which is smaller than cure when you have 541 magic attack😂

Oh I've put probably 40 hours into this specific challenge alone. By the time I did this run I had probably 20 wins in this challenge with various teams of 3, so yes I've had a lot of practice lol. The real fruit of my practice is learning the best way to kill everything. Priming a Phoenix kill before it uses rebirth flame takes a lot of preparation. Killing Titan in one stagger also takes preparation, primarily, building up his stagger bar before breaking his shield. Killing Odin without letting him reach phase 3 took a lot of planning too. It took many dozens of failures for me to create this build and dozens more to finally seal the deal. I was very nervous in the Gilgamesh and Sephiroth fights😅

Listen as a Black Mage main in FFXIV Aerith having like 4 wards/Leylines and just annihilating everything in sight is beautiful and I want to throw this at Yoshi-P to ask for a BLK MGE Rework around a gameplay loop like this in an MMO cause this proves that the answer to how to make a casting class better is to just place more Leylines

@aethertruck

2 ай бұрын

I would support a choice of two different leylines cooldowns. For example, warrior's choice of upheaval/orogeny, and DRK's choice between carve and abyssal drain. You have to pick one then they both go on cooldown. The new secondary version of leylines could be placed under any target including bosses, (useful since AM can't be used on bosses, perhaps good for dynamo-type attacks) would last the full 2 minutes, would not give spell haste, but using between the lines would extend astral fire by 5 seconds, or maybe give an umbral heart or two. Maybe it could behave slightly like arcane circle or brotherhood, where party action enhance the effect. Maybe if an ally uses weaponskills inside the lines, you get charges of a buff similar to a monk's chakra. At 5 stacks, you gain access to a buff that grants haste even if you're outside the lines. Maybe once per use of the lines, you get a charge of "replace the lines" that lets you move them the same way sages can move their pvp limit break field thing just one time per use. Maybe the brotherhood chakra effect would only work on the player you cast it on, making that single player something like a dance partner, and putting your DPS in their hands requiring them to stay inside the lines for you while you can freely move around. I'm all for giving BLMs new tools but I want the tools to be complex. A bunch of simultaneous lines seems too simple. It would somewhat trivialize their job identity of needing to plan their movement to optimize DPS. With a set of lines like what I've described, it could enable new movement options, but the player would be forced to engage with the new lines for the full 2 minutes in order for the new lines to give better dps than normal leylines, which increases the stakes of placing them well.

Rulers of the perfect block

When your blocking combos do you press block for te first attack and hold it or press it individually for each attack

@aethertruck

3 ай бұрын

After doing a perfect block and holding it, any attacks that hit you for the next 0.5 seconds will also be immune, including attacks like Titan's thwack which normally can't be blocked at all! However you are able to immediately block again and if the conditions are right you can perfect block again, and if you do, you gain more ATB and build more stagger on your attacker than if you choose to let the first perfect block cover a subsequent attack. For attacks like Bahamut's whirlwind slash, I must block 3 separate times because if I don't I won't immune every hit. Every time you hear that clinking sound, that means I pushed the block button. If you see the words immune multiple times, but only one clinking sound, that means a single perfect block covered multiple hits, which is most easy to see when Bahamut uses Vulcan Onslaught

Don't give up. There are multiple builds that make the fight easier to handle. I am partial to beefcakes, where you make everyone very tanky with materia and accessories, give Aerith magnify-barrier, magnify-healing, enchanted ring, Ceremonial Staff with both Altruistic Buff Up. Give everyone revival materia, prayer materia elemental-fire on your armor, With Aerith, keep barriers up, regen up, and only use soul drain to keep her MP up. Optionally you can give Aerith magnify-enhancement so you can keep bravery/faith active. They boost damage by 50% and shorter fights are safer fights. Don't be afraid to stay in slowdown mode while you wait for enemies to take action. If the slowdown is too slow for you then you can increase the speed of slowdown mode in the extra settings so it doesn't feel like you're waiting forever for enemies to take actions. There is a build that will work for you. Don't give up!

@@aethertruck It's a combination of not knowing the fight because there's no good way to practice it without a tedious runback of three exhausting battles, and a lack of reflexes for the number of perfect blocks seemingly needed to even stand a chance. It feels like he's constantly attacking and that I get punished whenever I even attempt to do some damage. Then I'm in a downward spiral of not being able to heal fast enough or even generate enough ATB to be able to heal, and I lose. Also, the sheer number of skills he has is daunting to try to memorize (again made worse by the runback). I've tried a couple of different YT builds that have gotten me as far as Gilgamesh, but then I can't execute the strategies because I just die before I know what's even happening. And half the time I don't even get to round 4. And imagining finally winning only to die in round 5.... ugh, just nothing about this is fun for me.

If you push him into slepnir's furor but then push him below 80%, he will vanish as soon as slepnir's furor expires. If Alexander uses divine judgement, Odin comes back and you are forced to fight them both at full strength. So it's recommended that you kill Alexander before he uses it, in which case Odin will come back and have access to his full kit as well.
