Yeah, there are certainly quite a few strategies that would work. Stop is good if you feel the desire to curb stomp it without any concern for defense.
ya i used stop, doesnt really work with Jenovah death tho i gave up on him lol.

I can't even seem to beat the first Jenova battle...Stop only lasts like 2 attack rounds and he'll put up reflect right after, plus I don't have it honed enough. Feel like I'm doing it wrong.
What speed do you have it set on? I have mine at 2 usually for bosses. Stop lasted at least two rounds for me as well but that is generally enough. I had only 4 uses out of stop for Jenova but with Full break + magic breakdown + stoneskin II she barely dealt any dmg. The main dmg source you can have is probably going to be Poison if you can get venom buster to proc on it early.

Feel like I'm doing it wrong. I had Stop honed to where I could use it 6 times, and I used every one of those to try and keep it stopped for most of the battle. It never used reflect. I didn't take much damage, but if the fight had dragged on any longer I would have been screwed. I used practically every ability I had to kill it before the stops ran out, and it nearly one-shot my lvl 65 Rydia on a couple occasions when stop wore off.

The main dmg source you can have is probably going to be Poison if you can get venom buster to proc on it early. I probably should have gone that route with more defensive abilities, and I forgot to bring poison. Also, just to be super cautious I set the speed to 1 on the difficult fights. Maybe I'm just not ready for it, I certainly don't have enough orbs to hone stop that many times and once reflect comes up all my main damage sources are just boned. I didn't realize that game speed mattered for debuffs, that is really dumb actually. I feel like I could probably melee it down doing 1000 a hit at a time but it would take so long I would get the worst rating.
Stop only honed once gives you 4 uses, if you don't maybe just bring two uses and have aerith do her soul break. I only brought one BLM for that (Vivi) and rest of melee dmg from Zack and Cloud.
Yeah I don't really have enough characters leveled/geared for different events. My only real phyical DDs right now are Wakka (50), Lightning (50), or Thancred (65, no weapon). I usually only bring physical DDs to cast breaks because I can't really get them to do even a fraction of the damage my mages do.

Bahamut.Ravael said: » Jetackuu said: » Oh man, Air Buster wrecked my ***. After seeing a few videos on Shinra Company + and noting that my potential setup was not as nearly as good as the ones on YouTube, I thought I'd get wrecked too. I've never even attempted a bonus battle before, which didn't help. I tried it anyway with my ragtag group and absolutely destroyed all 4 bosses. Stop magic made Air Buster a joke since it halted all counterattacks, and Aeris' default SB (Seal Evil) silenced all of the adds on the 3rd boss. I ended up using Stop on that boss too and hardly took any damage at all. For the 4th fight, I used Blade Beam as my RW skill twice, which almost took out the dog right off the bat. I finished the dog off with normal skills, used Stop on Rufus, and it was over pretty quickly after that. TLDR: Stop magic is seriously underrated in the Shinra Company + fights. I had no issue with Rufus and his mutt, I knocked it out rather easily the second time once I actually looked up a strat. I was getting worried with the third boss though (I don't have either of those abilities you listed) but Shadow Flare knocked the sample most of the way out, so whew. Rekt Jenova Life EP.

Just r4'd Valefor, yay

Summons are where I seriously get owned. I got a paltry Shiva r4, Carbuncle r1, r3 Kirin and r3 Ifrit but all that fancy stuff like Alexander, Ixion and the like are sitting at r1 (-_-)
Just not enough Greater Orbs to go around.

First thing before tackling a hard fight is to check this (awesome) page in reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/FFRecordKeeper/comments/3pqhz4/lost_memories_enemy_stats_and_ai/ That link will provide the foe AI, stats, immunity and weaknesses. That Jenova (the one that can be stopped). One interesting thing to notice is that Jenova is vulnerable to sleep and poison, and that makes for an easy combo: inflict poison and keep mob sleeping. Poison/sap are constant dmg proportional to hp and wont wore off so you dont even need to recast (provided mob wont heal himself). Also, nukes wont wake a sleeping mob so you can sleep him and slowly nuke it down. And sleep last longer that stop though there isnt a high accuracy sleep so you should use and abuse S/L. About reflect, its said it just has 25% to trigger to counter a blm magic. Finally, depending how important is the reward (for example, a MC), one can consider using mythril to continue after a wipe out and receive bonus, that can be stacked.

I'm getting a lot of fire as well. :( in terms of greater, I've gotten as many fire this event as summon and ice combined.
For Major, I've gotten 2 fire, and none of the other two Tactics event in Japan. Ramza and Agrias both get their MC2 right off the bat.

Agrias Mustadio Delita T.G Cid Alma That'd be prediction for a full loadout of main FFT characters. They could expand further with Marche, Montblanc, Luso and the FFTA/2 crew. Sylph.Tigerwoods said: » RIP advance. Was fun while it lasted +50% is the same effect of planet protector, and way below Advance, thats +150%. Its usefulness will depend how many buffs can stack with it. Leon Kasai said: » Tactics event in Japan. Ramza and Agrias both get their MC2 right off the bat. First time i saw that Ramza i thought it was a girl, and Agrias a guy using those french/english wig from the modern age. Anyway, i like the accessory is a Zodiac Stone, but now DeNa must implement more twelve accessories from FFT realm. Belias as a boss means a lot of content will be rushed. They could take it easy and let this first event to end with Algus. *** yeah tactics event!!!!
5/44 5*... won't complain but for some reasons those lucky draws prefer giving me female mage weapons. I got:
Selphie Morning Star 2x Quistis Sleipnir's tail Ashe Rune Blade Yuna Lullaby Rod well... and a Gold Sword
[+]
I only got two :/. The second one is a hypnocrown and I have one already... Debating on merging them or just have two for FF9 stuff.
Was wondering the same with the 2 Morning Stars. But i guess there won't be many Situations where you need 2 chars with high MND weapons.
Not sure if i should change my RW now. Got level 65 Selphie with pretty high MND and trabia light and i could level Yuna for Hymn of the fayth... But i guess Boon is more usefull than AOE Cures 6/44. Blood Lance (Kain), Zwill Crossblade (Vaan), Grand Glove (Tifa), Minerva Bustier (Terra), Sleipnir's Tail (Quistis), and Ice Whip (Rydia). Not a bad haul.
Now to wait for the Hope event for the 10 mythril so I can do 2 single pulls for Organics before that disappears. :I Got 3 - 5*s = Zacks SB and two Hairpins for Redxii (trine one)...
My FF7 Sbs are nuts now Red(trine), Cloud(Organics), Septh (OWA) and Zack (Buster sword) |
