Thread: 2 New Souls up and Medusa: No... Just. Fucking. No.

Also undefeated in Ultimate (my loss was in Expert), but never in less than 8 rounds.

1) Full burst, down 35-40% depending on how well debuffs land
2-3) Slowly chipping down to stun
4-5) Stunned
6-8) Finish

2 Rounds stunned, 2 rounds overdrive, and there is no attack on the last turn, leaving up to 3 rounds to use petrify or poison. The first debuff is always countered by Amon, the first death is always resurrected by Andromeda. That leaves at most 2 rounds to deal with extra petrify. Poison can be countered with regen.

Having tried both Expert and Ultimate now I had the same as CBW. On Expert she was just destroying me with garbage petrify spamming but in Ultimate thanks to the trash mob placement I always get the Medusa with full gauge and all my buffs ready to use, dropping her to like 40% straight away then using abilities to burn her into to stun and that was with my levelling up party by accident as I was doing raids for limit break materials while leveling up non-maxed kamihime and the new souls.

Maybe the problem isn't I'm not powerful enough to do Expert but in fact too powerful (but not enough to just auto-attack through trash) that I burn through the trash too easily that I hit Medusa with only 40%-50% gauge with no abilities ready and petrify just ruins me. Could try not using abilities but then damage builds up too quick and Expert never seem to drop healing items very much.

am i the only one 25k atk 10/10 ultimate medusa?~ seems a lot struggling in expert :3

As stated above, the problem with expert is that most people does not have michael to build up burst fast enough. This translate into several turns of aa with the boss to build up the rage. Boss can chain cc pretty conveniently and as a result, the tun turns out to be very risky

The minions in expert are pretty weak compared to the last event so the burst build up is quite safe.

btw... only 2 new souls... where's the legend? when will release?

I'm at 27k attack fire team and I full burst medusa from 75% to dead if my debuffs land. Get her to rage in first turn then full burst her out of it/kill her.

I run something pretty close 26k atk with andromeda and ifrit and pretty much can do expert and ultimate without a single unit dying but I feel like this event is just to time consuming instead of actually being hard
