Thread: [Event 10] Advent Battle vs Ixion

Looks like they extended maintenance by an hour, so probably won't get that free chance since I'm pretty tired as it is.

Oh well, looking forward to hearing everyones experience on Ragnarok tomorrow, assuming I don't try to get in before reset.

Is this a joke?

Just tried Rag with a wind team and I took over 5k damage per person from an enraged Ixion, after stacking every possible attack down debuff on Rag. It wiped my whole wind team.

My water team averages about 7k health instead of 5k health on my wind team due to jorm bonuses + weapon buffs, but I'm not at all certain they can survive this ultimate either since they take a lot of extra damage from type disadvantage. I'm thinking about trying a thunder team instead of a wind team (my thunder team has no type advantage, but is stronger overall) and trying to run Perun to negate the massive spike.

In general, Mordred vastly improves survivability. +1 turn until overdrive and applies dizziness. I was able to push through rage mode on Rag difficulty in 3 turns, skipping the overdrive completely. Still died, but progress!

Got the Ragnarok down to 10% but died at that point. My team was Siegfried (using Sniper Shot from D'Art as Extra ability), Heimdallr, Gaia, Titania and Sol - using Garuda as Eidolon, 35k ATK. The first burst from the boss I used Gaia on but even with Sieg I couldnt dps her down through the Rage phase and got hit by her burst in Raging. Her burst in raging not only hits for around 6k on each Kami but also drains all your burst gauge from what I could see. I might have got her down after the elixir but got really unlucky on the RNG and Gaia got triple striked by the boss.

I also have Hermes, Cronos, Cybele and Maeve as SR Wind Kami's, might experiment and sub out Heimdallr for one. Also considering switch Sieg out for a defense soul but her damage in that raging seems really important as im sure you must get her Rage down ASAP or you'll wipe. Interested to see how other do.

my team got massacred lol(@ultimate)

Beat the Rag twice with dark team: Jeanne w/ sniper shot, Satan, Susanoo, Amon Unleashed, Sol.
6k HP, 33k raw atk w/ about 100% boost from both weapon and eido skills.

1st battle started with two def down missed, totaling 60% atk down but only 15% def down. Then Satan's overdrive meter down failed, resulted in 2 charging blows during the 1st raging, which dealt 2000 damage w/ Jeanne's shield on, and 4000 w/o it.

The next round of debuffs landed better, only missed 1 atk down, leaving Ixion no chance for burst during the 2nd raging, not much trouble in the rest of the battle.

2nd battle ran much smoother as all debuffs sticked, the party stayed above half HP all the time. So I think I could give up a bit of debuff and try Modred for more consistent performance.

Btw the reward of Rag sucks (draconic eye shards will only be added a few events later), not worth using the elixir.

it says theres a chance to +skill on enhance... at least that is unique i guess.

now it's the moment, when people realize that 0815 SRs have reached their limit.

Damn, I had to use elixir because I screwed up my timing with full burst... Instead of full burst I got kicked back to 25% because I got full round of double/triple attacks and she went with her burst to rage. (I really shouldn't use attacking skills in not rage phase...)
Overall my first try with it started kinda bad: Black propaganda missed and Zephyrus atk down also missed. Zephyrus was also first one to go down because she was focused by Ixion.

Shame that rewards sucks for beating ragnarok.
