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

The reason I brought it up this early because the boss is no pushover like Yata.
And Raid events never really scare me because even if you fail, you can always obtain help. Even easier if you're in a Union.

By "healer" you mean the self-healing Indra? She does have a cleanse yes.
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....

Ramiel (Dizzy+Mordred, atk debuff and multiple buff)
Perun and Hermod in sub. (Perun for damage reduction in case and no real reason for Hermod)

Not sure if you forgot or just having Ama there for the one time sniper debuff. But she is going to be obliterated even if one tick of the rage burst hits her.

But don't worry, I had the exact same idea as you as well until I realised "Shet, I'm a fire main and the event is friggin water..."

I have Amaterasu in all my parties. So she's just there because she's there. She'll most likely die if she gets double hit by the raging overdrive and no HP buff from the set up.

But as I said, it was just gonna be for my first attempt. If anything, it's just to see if I can handle keeping her out of using regular overdrive, which if I can, I will remove Maiden as a ex skill to use Sniper and swap Amaterasu to another attacker, probably Hermod or Baal.

I haven't really used my thunder team, rather not a big fan of how Hermod and Thor inflict damage on themselves and the team.

Remember that Maiden's Prayer alone may not be enough. That has a 4 turn CD, but you won't be able to use it twice in a row because she'll seal your CD the round before the skill is ready again (that's with with Black Propaganda active). You'll be fine if you only eat 1 overdrive, but you could end up eating two, especially after the first Rage cycle.

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.

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.

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.
