Thread: How do you intend to deal with Vuritra? [Upcoming Ragna Advent]

I also saw a player who used Tyr and Gaia there and pretty much used her as a one time meat shield to ensure that no one else dies on the first burst before taking it down with Sieg and Tyr. But the problem is not everyone has Tyr or Gaia so....

lol i'm so dumb to no think about her XD
i think i'll use her instead of baal, in ragnarok there is no wave 1-2 so she won't be useful and gaia can really help.

we dealt with Medusa we can deal with this little fella. Mostly using skills before she gets to do it though.

Pretty sure there was no ragnarok for medusa back then.

I might use my wind team on her, since it can reach 50% atk down.

Joan with black propaganda or sniper shoot or ambush. Whatever I feel is more useful.
Gaia.
Zephyrus.
Cybele.
And maybe Belobog just in case her ailment removal might be useful. Or Satan for her orb drain and def debuff. Or Balor for... all debuffs that she have?
as for sub slot:
Heimdallr
Hermes

So for this fight I don't have the luxury of many of the strong Thunder himes and SSR weapons to run either Seig (no SSR thunder glaive / hammer) or a strong thunder team (no SSR thunder himes). Additionally I don't have Mordred and likely won't be able to scrounge together the extra 540 soul points I'll need by this event.

Knowing all this, I think my best bet will be to try running a dual thunder and light team, using Joan with Sniper Shot, plus Sol for max damage mitigation. I'll also likely run Ramiel for the dizzy, the R thunder healer (Indra?) for the debuff removal, and Raphael for the equivalent of a black propaganda and the rage control. Because I'll be running a dual thunder light team, I'll be running my MLB Phoenix or my 1 star Thunderbird. I have Behemoth and Yatagarasu as secondary Eidolons for the debuff removal and attack down debuff respectively. As backup himes I'll likely use Aphrodite for the strong heal and debuff removal, and Belobog for the defensive buff and debuff removal.

so i've thought to use mordred to cover for the debuff part and maybe give her extra skill that will regenerate a little HP+yggsrdrasil i may be able to have regeneration during the whole battle, though it'll give just a small amount of HP.
and trying to get her stunned so tyr can finish her off, hopefully i can beat her before she crush me :O

Pretty much agree - I don't even have a full thunder team

Two problems with that plan:

1. Black Propaganda buys you 1 extra turn without an Overdrive every 3 turns. Raphael's skill is on a 6-turn CD, so it's 1/2 as effective.
2. Raphael's skill can be resisted. I've never seen Black Propaganda resisted.

Mordred is more or less required to do many Ragnaroks, assuming you don't have one of those perfect teams or unique kamihime that perform the same functions. For most players, she should be one of the first 3 legendary unlocks.

You can try with this setup, but you're going to be taking more damage and dealing with the debuff more often.

I had black propaganda resisted two or three times. Ixion ragnarok resisted it (though I didn't have that debuff resistance), Apocalypse ragnarok also resisted it once for me (this time I had debuff resistance) and I think one of the expert event raids also resisted it

Interesting. The resist rate must be pretty low then. I saw Raphael's skill resisted multiple times just in the course of doing Ixion and Apocalypse Ragnarok. Conversely, I use Black Propaganda more regularly and haven't seen resists.

Yeah, it is pretty rare and if that happens then you know that you will have a bad time with that fight. I might be wrong about Apocalypse, though I am 100% sure that it missed on ragnarok Ixion once. I remember that since it was first time that I saw black propaganda missing when it was needed.
I wonder if it is worth mentioning that I was using Joan with black propaganda as extra ability?

Although it can miss on wind disaster raid even if you land debuff resist down. But then again she have very high debuff resistance.
