Thread: Kamihime General Discussion + Q&A

Well, if you pull light Nike, you could probably test her against Iwanagahime, the fire raid that's like the first or second event after her introduction. Or maybe by the time we get there, someone will have tested it.

What, those 50k+ hit all overdrives sound intimidating? Pssh, that's 80-100% damage cut strategies' time to shine :P

If 50k is after Atk debuffs, then -80% isn't enough.

Though, hard to say what our powerlevels will look like by then. There's still a full year before that raid, so we're basically halfway there.

Wait, forgive me for not knowing, but that's possible with the himes we get? I don't see an immune all option from any of the skills, and the debuff cap is active, so is there something else I'm missing?

Oh, general purpose damage cuts, element resistance buffs, and reflects stack additively into one term. So if you use a 40% damage cut (like from Joan), then add something like Cupid's +30% fire resist buff when fighting against a fire enemy. That's (40%+30%=70%) reduction of damage. Reiki's summon effect throws another +15% resist against fire on there. Bam, 85% damage reduction from fire.
Eidolon passives like Jack Frost's should stack with resist buffs (but I'm not 100% on this), so double Jack, Cupid's buff, Reiki summon, and Joan's damage cut all together should reduce damage to 0 from fire.

Oh yea, and the wiki also says that plain damage cuts stack with themselves apparently? I'm not too sure on that one. But it is testable in our version. Joan's 40% cut + awakened Gaia's damage cut (40%, +20% thunder resist) should hit 100% reduction from thunder if they stack together.

Yes, they do. Always have. Back when raid buffs used to actually work (and I was still weak), I'd wait for triple Joan damage cuts whenever I was about to die.

Also, I use that same thing in Accessory R4 Wind Quests, Joan + non-Awakened Gaia can laugh off one Raging Overdrive. And then Gaia suicides herself for the greater good for the next one.

The way to use Light Nike is to spend the first 10 turns charging blessings, then the next 10 turns charging ATK ups. After ~20 turns, you'll have full or near-full ATK buffs and a 1 Full Burst charged, allowing you to double Burst with +100% ATK (~+45% damage = free Provisional Forest) one time. That would be how to deal with one of those final bosses with a very slow-moving Rage bar that dies after 1 Rage phase (and has a deadly Rage Overdrive).

Lolwut at this twitter quiz.
