(+) Yeah! (+)

So Cid just delivered 99999 twice.

We've got a mean as f*** system in place.
---

You guys still need another?
---

we're up against the Ultimate ++ but we're likely to run again soon.

The room will be 8888
---

ok, we cleared Ultimate ++

@eaedwards6400 if you've got a medica or wall that'd be sweet.

Wall moreso.
---

Just woke up

Still playing?
---

yes, room is up right now go go go
---

Oh you were talking about the FFX raids?

I've already cleared all of those.

Earlier today I beat the U+ and U++ for FFX as well. First try on both too.

Against Tidus U++ it was amazing seeing Exdeath's regular Dark Earth Shaker SB hit for 9999x2 after Papalymo's SSB and Mental Breakdown. Then I had Raines BSB RW on both of them to just utterly wreck Tidus. Exdeath was literally hitting for 9999x4 on the first burst command.

99999 spam is beautiful

That it is

Still want to go?
---

That was fun.
---

War ran out of stamina :(
---

Oh okay then

Back to Möbius and Exvius farming for me then
---

I'm gonna find a way to get 2 more mythril so I can make a pull.
---

Like, wait two more days for the daily Mythril?
---

I am however looking forward to the possibilities future raid events hold now!
---

Oh I'm dumb

I should have brought in Zell instead of Eiko
---

Very excited! Finally got over the hump and beat the FFT 110 for a mcII, so now I can get golbez to 80 and have three people at 80 and open up a lot more of the game for me. Also got cid raines mc2 along with his finery relic so tomorrow im going to work on getting both of them close to 80 so I can have a semi functioning team
---

I did 2 raids because I never do them and got the 2 mythril and no s*** I got the OSB and 2 healing staffs.

Havent seen one since i started again

Damn that sucks, they were on there before for 10k
---

You can get MC2s in Nightmare Dungeons as well in the third strongest mission, the Iguions are weak to holy so a RW Orlandeau BSB/OSB will make short work of them.
---

four 5* on FFT pull

2 Ovelia luminous robes (I now have 4)
Mustadio's Full+Mind break SSB
Agria's BSB

no thunder god this time, but I'm pretty stacked in FFT now

Thank you! Worked great! Team is rolling now :)
---

Beat Cuchulainn Apocalypse, this guy is an annoying bastard with all of his status effects, so bring Ultra Cure. He also kept stopping an Orlandeau from doing his OSB, poor guy musta been furious about that.
---

Not sure if this apocolypse is really easy or R2 Affliction break is really OP against him.
---

Cuchulainn Apocalypse mastered

Faris 80: Mug Bloodlust R1, Affliction Break R1, Beryl Serpent BSB, 1 SB Bar at start RM
Vanille 99: Ultra Cure R1, Curaise R4, 1 SB Bar at start RM
Onion Knight w/BSB, Y'shtola w/SSII
TG Cid w/OSB, Vaan w/BSB
Vaan w/BSB, Y'shtola w/BSB

I need to hone Ultra Cure and Curaise one last time, those things are awesome! Thanks to Affliction Break, I've seen three straight turns of Nightmare and Ague missing everybody and I ****ing love it. Also need to hone that thing. The Y'shtola twins were also REALLY helpful, and between the both of them managed to coordinate their heals and buffs. Amazing.
---

Ultimate mastered... not with full medals though, didn't reduce the Black Mage's Magic

RW: Cid Raines's Metamorphose BSB
Tyro 99: Multi Break R2, Exhausting Polka R2, Sentinel's Grimoire SB, 1 SB Bar at start RM
Vanille 99: Protectga R2, Curaja R5, Transcendent Dream BSB, +SB Bar Rate w/attack+ability RM
Krile 99: Waterja R4, Maduin R4, Sheepsong SSB, 1 SB Bar at start RM
Hope 99: Bioga R4, Ruinga R4, Divine Judgement BSB, Significant +MAG but -DEF/RES RM
Exdeath 80: Memento Mori R3, Dark Zone R3, Power of the Void SSB, Dualcast Darkness RM

Magic AoE onslaught is so good. Too good, in fact, that both Exdeath and Krile accidentally killed the Black Mage not long after she popped up before Tyro can break her. Oh well, still mastered.
---

Gaffgarion U+ mastered with full medals

RW; Ramza's Shout BSB
Tyro: Rapid Fire R1, Lifesiphon R4, Sentinel's Grimoire SB, 1 SB Bar at start RM
Vanille 99: Protectga R2, Curaja R5, Transcendent Dream BSB, +SB Bar Rate w/attack+ability RM
Zell 80: Powerchain R3, Full Charge R3, The Duelist BSB, Significant +Dagger damage RM
Beatrix 99: Saint Cross R2, Banishing Strike R5, Knight Protector BSB, Much More +Sword Damage RM
Faris 80: Mug Bloodlust R1, Armor Breakdown R3, Beryl Serpent BSB, 1 SB Bar at start RM

Hmm... I'm not really feeling Tyro's setup since Zell is rocking the PC+FC combo, ya know? Heck, I'm even considering switching to Y'shtola and have her Wrath and heal in a pinch. I also wish I brought a Drawtaliater, because Zell came close to dying when Gaffgarion that ass focus fired on him.
---

Wiegraf U++ mastered with full medals

RW: Cid Raines's Metamorphose BSB
Tyro 99: Multi Break R2, Exhausting Polka R2, Sentinel's Grimoire SB, 1 SB Bar at start RM
Vanille 99: Protectga R2, Curaja R5, Transcendent Dream BSB, +SB Bar Rate w/attack+ability RM
Krile 99: Waterja R4, Maduin R4, Sheepsong SSB, 1 SB Bar at start RM
Hope 99: Darkra R4, Ruinga R4, Divine Judgement BSB, Significant +MAG but -DEF/RES RM
Exdeath 80: Memento Mori R3, Dark Zone R3, Power of the Void SSB, Dualcast Darkness RM

... that was... like, one of the easiest U++ fights I've had. None of Wiegraf's attack pose any danger to me, and the most dangerous one was his AoE that barely broke 1k, and even when he's hasted, he's kind of slow in firing off his attacks. None of the mooks were dangerous or annoying, and even the stuns that hit me barely lasted any time at all. Between hopped up on BSBs Krile + Hope and Exdeath flinging Dark hell all around, Wiegraf and the Corpse Brigade stayed true to their name

Now back to the dailies and stock up on Gysahl Greens and not knowing what to buy with them.
---

Oh right

Maintenance coming up on 2 February 0:00 AM PST to 05:00 AM PST
---

Beat the Ultimates this morning.

Gauntlet was easy, with protect+Wall+Unsung Hero they do meager damage outside of the mages, and Beatrix's BSB made short work of them.

Gaffgarion was the easiest Ultimate+ yet. Orlandeau BSB + same RW for Ramza + Beatrix BSB= X,,,,x- "I feel cold..."

Even through his Shadowblade ignores wall/protect you can dull it with full/power break/Orlandeau Burst command 1 and though he counters with Shell/Protect/Haste he's also weak to Banishing Strike. Oops.

Wiegraf and his posse gave me trouble through, but that's mostly bad RNG against his stop/interrupt and Orlandeau hitting the wrong targets with his BSB, if you kill him first you automatically win so I brought Gaffgarion's Burst for Ramza.
---

Beat Nightmare Atomos today thank to Orlandeau! The gems were annoying since he would sometimes end up hitting them instead of Atomos but still his Burst is what gave me the DPS to kill Atomos before he eats too many gems.

I think someone on the RK forum said that mote dungeons will be back this week, hopefully I can beat those bosses and get enough motes so that Alph can use 5* magic!
---

Anything cool coming from this maintenance?
---

Supposedly the physical soft cap increases to ~700ish. This means that if you already get to 700+ Attack reliably, your physical damage will go up by 25%.

At some point we will also be getting a FF9 Greens daily, a Summon Orb daily, and a reset on daily dungeons (so if there are any you have never completed, remember to do them for the token 1 Mithril) but last I heard those were not expected to be so soon.
---

Mastered all the ultimates. The mini-rush was quite easy. Gafgarion was annoying with his ultimate shadowblade spam, but being weak to holy, Orlandu and Agrias hammered him down quite fast. Actually, the only non-FF T character I had in this battle was Tyro. I have Mustadio's Mythril Gun, so I may actually be able to do a Cid Mission. Will give that a shot later possibly.

Wiegraf was getting blitzed by Cid Raines' BSB, but after every time I hit him as he got low, he countered with that ultimate judgment blade, which eventually had 4 characters stopped. Orlandu died right at the end, but Raines killed Wiegraf immediately after.

Will do the last 2 Nightmare guardians tomorrow, then give Tritoch a shot. Got him, Atomos, Necrophobe and Guardian still left.
---

I'm thinking about switching my RW to Serah's Burst with FF8 equipment since Mote Dungeon Ifrit seems to be considered one of the more difficult ones if anyone needs the help.
---

Huh, apparently I only completed the FF2 mote dungeon. Awesome, more 4* motes to get!
---

Are there seriously no Dancers in FF2 for this Mote Dungeon....
---

Beat Dahaka and the Magus Sisters.

Finally Alph can use 5* Black Magic! =D
---

how hard are the mote dungeons? the ? mark scares me
---

Like Ultimate++ hard, the Magus Sisters have a sleep vulnerability and Dahaka isn't too bad if you keep your buffs and breaking him. Everyone else is really hard through.

Ifrit is f***ing stupid though, bastard lives up to hype. Still fighting him but when he decides to do double meteor he keeps killing someone. And even with Fire Resistant equips he still does 2000+ damage with wall+shellga. He's harder than any Ultimate++ I've fought yet.
---

well nevermind then!
---

Beat Ifrit finally! I was using a mage team so I could use Serah's BSB, but meteor spam kept getting me at the halfway mark. Switched to a physical team so I could dull his magic with Full Break, Magic Breakdown and Vaan's BSB commands and used a Squall OSB RW to get through the second half ASAP.

Yeeeash, I've heard horror stories about the guy, and I barely beat him with the recent power creep relics. No way am I attempting a Cid Mission against him unless I somehow get Squall's OSB.

Just Ahriman left for the mote dungeons.
---

as somebody with Squall's OSB, it alone doesn't help. It gives you the damage, as two OSB casts can take off 45-50% of his HP, but surviving that long to do two OSB casts and getting the rest of the damage is still tricky.
---

I know, but I'm still not attempting a Cid Mission against Ifrit anytime soon since my FF8 relics aren't that great (Only have Blitz Sword, Hyperion, Party Dress and Esthar Bracers) I was planning to do a pull on the Fujin/Raijin banner in the next weeks with hopefully the leftover mythril I saved for Orlandeau's OSB, but since I didn't get it and blew it all trying to... augh. Saving for the second anniversary fest instead.

Ahriman was a breather after Ifrit, personally he was the easiest since I used the same Magic dulling strat on Ifrit and brought Blindga. Hardest thing honestly was finding a Lunneth Burst RW. Now that I have all these motes and Alph with 5* Black and White magic I should take on some more Nightmare Dungeons.
---

I still can't believe I beat Mote Ifrit, dude was seriously scary
---

i beat Ifrit CM just using Rinoa BSB as a RW (before Serah's came out) and i didn't even have a magical synergy weapon or an aoe heal. should be considerably easier with Edea's BSB instead once that comes out. and also Edea's MC3.
