Yes I would absolutely LOVE Scream, but I would choose getting Wall that I don't have over Hastega+Attack that I do have even if it's way more convenient on him. I haven't looked much past the SSBfest but I will certainly spend all my mythril for Wall on that, maybe once I do that maybe I'll spend whatever I have left on FFT.

So what are peoples Ultimate Bahamut strats? I gave it a few shots earlier and his damage output is just insane. It seems you need a nice balance or AoE and single target, the mastery condition is a *** too. Even as lucky as I was to pull Clouds BSSB the fight is a rough one.

Draw Fire + Retaliate to mitigate the adds attacks, kill 6 adds as soon as you can while building SB charge, then go all out on bahamut once the 6 adds are killed.

Interesting, I'll have to try that with my Steiner taking hits. I was having a rough time with it too, very rage inducing when they destroy me before putting ANYTHING up. Or when he does his 3 turn flare and you have nobody ready to do anthing until 1 turn is left.

I'm suprised you found Draw Fire Retal to be useful, I didn't have any problem with single targets compared to the AoEs.

I will have to excersize willpower for sure, I hate they only offer wall once every like half a year and it's SO important.

Ugh finally managed to beat that Ultimate but no master... I'm going to have to try again tomorrow with a different setup. I think I'll need to use Eiko RW for haste/cure and then put Lightning in with her SB. Seems to be the hardest ultimate yet.. Also got Zell's "Gauntlet" from this 100 gem pull, finally got lucky on that for once.

Oh wow, they added 5* Machinist to Cid, as well. As if he didn't have enough utility with 4* Combat and 5* Dragoon lol.

I need some FF8 weapons but I have no interest in pulling in the 2 FF8 banner.

I wonder what are the odd to SSSB fest to start before Laguna event ends. The actual anniversary is still far ahead though, should be when FF9 and FF2 events are happening.

Looks like "The Man with the Machine Gun" won the music remix poll. SE is hit and miss with their remixes, but I love that friggin' song.

That song is the only good thing to come with this event. Laguna as an FFRK character is extremely dissapointing.

This ultimate is hard and I have native SG and SS2. Any ideas for party setup?

I tried fulltiming SG/SS2 but my dmg output was crap.

Whats your current setup?

I managed by using RS gear, Planet Protector and the full break+steal defense against Bahamutt.

As normally an Ultimate boss starts slower, I decided to finish the 6 adds before first Flare stuff. While at that, spamming Lifesiphon built everyones SB to burst after the 6th add was done.

I had to use planet protector as my RW and just get lucky, it was very rough. I didn't master it and I can't see to do it w/o resetting 50 million times. This is just a fight where you really need strong SB's to win because you can't with abilities alone unless you use mythril imo.

To master you need to deal over 500k damage, its really a lot, though you can always use AoE damage to hit all adds.

I saw a video of a dude using the new 4* ability thats AoE Fire damage, and fire is a weakeness for the mini-mutts, but I dont see a point honing a such a situational 4* ability unless you dont know where to use the orbs.

Ifrit could be a decent option, but the 5 uses max is a bother. Idem for Phoenix.

I think I used some Bladeblitz to speed up the damaging process. I had a fine DD party with Tyro (SLG), Cloud (FD), Zack (the new SB), RedXIII (Lunatic High) and Aeris (PP and Healing Wind. In the end, I really had to use an AoE Cura).

You spend a lot for all those weapons though so it doesn't really help most lol. Most people have only one or two of those sadly. Lunatic High and Clouds Fenrir Drive together are crazy improvements and then you have PP and Healing Wind... yeah. Don't see how that helps anyone trying to beat this tbh. Kinda comes across as bragging, not saying you are but just seems that way.

In my suggestion, don't focus too much on the AOE's. You won't have to worry too much about the adds but more on stopping his flares. After you stop the flare it does 9999 dmg to the adds anyway. I used Seph's AOE and with a atk boost it does max dmg to adds and about 6k to the main boss. It worked really well for me along with any aoe soul breaks (had Steiner's.) The biggest thing is all the DMG you will take during the fight. I'd suggest wearing those thunder resist rings, magic breakdown/full break along with Shell/Protect. I brought along a knight with draw fire (Steiner) to take the single phy hits and then had him with drain strike.

I just don't see it possible for people unless you have a native SS2/SG + ATK boost or AOE haste and a really strong AOE SB. You'll end up spending mythril to beat this one. I couldn't deal enough dmg w/o the ATK boost and if I had a native AOE haste or cure it would have been a lot easier.

DeNA decided to balance Bahamutt dificulty, and made Adel a pretty easy Ultimate.

He casted on himself 3 times shell, thats, he just wasted 3 turns. Spam AoE but just magic, like Dr. Mog said.

I used Aerith with Ifrit 5/5 and Valefor 4/5, just holding summons off until there were 2 mobs on the battlefield.

The fight is super shitty though.

Sephiroth (Black Materia/Life Siphon/Flame Blossom/Ace Striker)

Zell (Burning Rave/Life Siphon/Dismissal/Knight's Charge)

Terra (Magitek Missile/Thundaja/Ruinga/Blood of the Espers)

Quistis (Mighty Guard/Armor Breakdown/Mental Breakdown/Dr. Mog's Teachings)

Yshtola (Stoneskin II/Medica II/Curaja/DiagaProtectga/Mako Might)


New party setup, covers pretty much everything (Wall, 2x Medica, Hastega, Boostga) except Full Break which I don't have anyway. If I get another good physical (B)SSB I'll probably replace Terra with whoever has it to unify my damage types and get the most out of Zell.

I supose you lack hastega in your current setup.
So, try this: change Aeris PP for either Boon, Lunatic High or Emerald Light and just use Tifa to boost attack. If you use Boon, you can drop Tyros Shellga to Retaliate and cover adds damage plus extra damage.
Second, you have Power Break and Breakdown. Both dont stack so drop the break for another one, what about the AoE Fire we just get?
Also, most Bahamutt attacks are magical based. Try dropping both Power break/breakdown and deal with physical with just protectga and wall. Instead, bring Armor Breakdown and Magic Breakdown.
Back to Tyro, i sugest bringing him to front row and give him the Gold Sword, that should be stronger than the gun. Hes using Ace Strike, that best use is together with Lifesiphon, so I would give it to Tifa to full time the boostga.

I would try something like this:

Tyro: Draw Fire / Retaliate RM: Dragoon Determination (if Tyro has SLG and hes your best SB, give him Cloud Sword, armlet and Tifas accessory. You need to make sure SLG will hit the damage cap).

Cloud: BladeBlitz if you can, otherwise try Launch or Drain Strike/ Tempo Flurry RM: Self Sacrifice

Tifa: Lifesiphon / Kick RM: Mako Might

Red XIII: Armor Breakdown / Full break if available at 4 uses or just magic breakdown.

Yshtola: Protectga / Curaga RM: Dr. Mog

RW: Boon

Use first Boon at start to put shellga and start killing 6 adds before first Flare. Once the 6 adds are dead, rush to Bahamutt with everything you got.

When do we get MC2's for Tyro or Cloud? Or are they stuck somewhere in the storyline? I need to get some MC2's for people I actually have leveled. :/
