Only mobs that you might want to speed up are your COM mobs. In that case, Siphon boost II + Attack boost II works as well if not better then haste, and thats permanent for your mob.
so wtf is up with characters in XIII-2 getting Mass Effect 3 skins?
idk you guys, with my party being untouchable now a new world with extra tough regular monsters and a new boss would be the only reason to play again…
how many coliseum battles are they planning to have? there’s alot of slots…
Im probably going to wait till all the DLC comes out, and then hope for a discounted combo pack.
maybe it’s because of that whole galaxy travelling thingy
For me, I decided to stop playing at when I meet up with future Hope and I’ll pick it up when all the DLC is out as well.
anyone fought/beaten the latest dlc mob? that weird helper thing just does too much damage to me, what setups are you using that are seeing traction?
Just rolled Jihl. Not sure if I’ll run it back. Fight took me around 7 minutes to complete for a first kill. SABs seem useless here since every time I stripped off protect, it would just get refreshed.
I’ll try Ultros and Typhon tonight. Just looking at the trailer seems like you should strip Typhon’s buffs asap, and if theres enough warning for that crazy bite, swap to toise paradigm to mitigate the damage.
fuck ff13. this is the most rage inducing game in the world.
i was fighting shao long gui.
fucker used bay because my daze spell decided not to stick, so i heal.
fucker cast ultima, someone i survived with 1 character dead, so i heal.
fucker then decides to cast ultima again. game over.
controller is now in pieces.
i normally wouldnt be this mad, but similar bullshit happened 4x in a row.
WTF were they thinkin when they came up with the battle system?
/rant.
what kind of setup are you going into the fights with? not at all trying to be a dick because those shao long gui fights can be very problematic, i havn’t played in a while but the one thing that i do remember being absolutely crucial to taking them out was being very quick on the shift to tortoise paradigm, i would use that for both ultima and bay.
It’s because you took too long to kill it. After the 3-4 minute mark it starts going berserk and casting bay left and right. You should kill it around the 1:30 - 3 minute mark.
Key to beating Shaolong Gui is simple. Have bravery, haste, enfire. Him have deprotect and stagger = you win.
Daze and all that other bull crap is useless. All you need is imperil to get it to 900% + and deprotect and that mother fucker is dead.
Oh No Head explodes Gilgamesh!!!
[media=youtube]_URAMx1yMTg[/media]
He got like ten milli hit points or some shit lol aww man Gotta get my skills up and farm elixers lol.
Gilgamesh is a pain to kill. He has max HP an enemy could ever have in the game, in addition to healing for around 1 mil HP every time he recovers from stagger. During his stagger he can inflict status effects that can completely shut down your characters offense.
And during the course of the fight he has several phases, ones that introduce either extended combos into launchers or abilities he uses only when staggered. By the time he has low health he will be doing 6 hits into launchers and using abilities that can inflict daze from what I’ve read. Oh, and also has a crushing revenge ability called Vendetta, where he unleashes damage based on how much he has received. It’s an annoying ability he uses while he is staggered so the risk there is really higher. I think its manageable as long as you have a SEN out to tank the hit.
I haven’t made it that far. I was kind of distracted when I tried earlier today, but after 7+ staggers he still had like 80% hp still thanks to his heal before I just stopped.
Some people have taken an hour to kill him. He’s just relentless.
Other good news is that there is free costume DLC for Serah, which imo looks pretty sweet.
the alien dlc was easy peasy. but i’m with holy knight, gilgamesh is brutal. His first form is a joke of course but when he gets the swords he’s nuts. I went in with Chichu/Cloudburst/Sazh and managed to whittle him down to 50% or so… but i think without a good sen idk… also i was thinking sab might be very good for him… so maybe sab sen syn?
PuPu is easy, You gotta debuff and stagger typhon, once hes done you can focus on ultros, gilgamesh is gonna be a LOOOOOONG battle bruvs.
Sounds like he’s worth the money though. Maybe I gotta give it a shot.
Ugh Damn gilgamesh Had him down to 4 milli hit points and just watching him heal was just like i know i’ve been grinding hard but imma have to withdrawl. I’ll take him back on during this weekend.
I do love the challenge of the fight and this version of gilgamesh brings the ruckus. I was thinking of all those dope hard battles in FF history and this one even tho its a side thing is up there.
The music the battle the praying you get that crystal and dont have to fight him more times lol.
But now I have a build that does a ton of damage and Imma test it out and see how it goes.
After buying Skullgirls I got some leftover monies, might buy some DLC for this game. Gotta run through all the stages though since I got the Paradox Scope, AFTER I finish up FF6. Man, my plate is full right now…
Fighting him isn’t what i am worried about, it’s capturing him that scares me. It took me about 10x to capture Omega and that was frustrating. If Gilgamesh is that hard as you have described then he should have an easier drop rate.
Man i love this FF13 story, i’ve actually placed FF13 as my actual fav. I can’t say i like FF13-2 more than the first because they are both equally good. I think developed some nerd-crush on lightning.
In FF XIII is it possible to get more than one Ultima Weapon per character or is it limited to one each?
Thanks
