Yeah, if your burst increase is that strong, then you can smite the raging bar...

My light team is dishing about a good 3.25 mil burst with no burst damage increases, but with Michael's buff, meng huo's buff, and light Kaiser's buff. And still needs 2-3 rounds dealing about 400k-600k worth of damage to remove a rage gauge (assuming I don't use skills).

My typical round 3 run is:

Turn 1 - use Managarmr and all debuffs
Turn 2 - use light Kaiser and all buffs (any debuffs that weren't ready as well)
Turn 3 - summon meng huo, send boss into rage with as little ability damage as possible, nuke with remaining ability damage and then full burst
Turn 4/5 - send into stun while summoning echidna then tiamat (using Michael's burst guage refill turn 4)
Turn 6 - unless bad RNG on debuffs and rage guage drain, summon Huanglong to extend stun (never needed, but just in case) then AAB til boss dies.
Turn 7 and onwards (if nuked) - use Shamash's attract and counter damage to stun, then use huanglong, then set up for metatron and shamash dual burst. When both can burst, unleash it and then AAB with burst turned on

I've never had a wipe, but it might still be possible since I'm still debuff reliant, so I might drop sniper for PF to see how that goes since I am using the herc axe (but the debuff from it will force the insta-kill nuke if I try to factor in a PF full burst as well as the eidolon frame debuff).

But since vishnu and metatron can up their burst damage, might be worth using them in place of sol and/or michael

Digging this thread up as AQ6 is coming tomorrow finally. Or should be coming, if Original Content(tm) doesn't happen.


So, having a glance at DMM wiki, it looks like changes from AQ5 -> AQ6 are roughly as follows:
Wave 1: Roughly the same HP, stronger overdrives, but probably not an issue at all?
Wave 2: HP from 4m-ish -> 6m-ish, overdrives significantly stronger and are now actually dangerous?

Wave 3: HP from 7.5m -> 10m, but more importantly, DEBUFF RESISTANT. Debuff resistant content is finally here?
Overdrive is now only two bubbles, but deals 20% current HP damage and 20% max HP damage in Rage. So, by itself, nothing really bad.
Turn 1 Trigger: cleanse all debuffs, apply Debuff Resist+ (cannot be Dispelled)
Does not do normal attacks, instead, does the same fucking clownfiesta bullshit as GO Jack. One AoE debuff per turn, this time the DoTs cap at a measly 500 though. Still, this is probably going to be utter and complete fucking bullshit.
Turn 10, 15, 20, etc Trigger: Nukes you based on the debuffs you have. Combined with the normal Overdrives whittling you down, this will probably just end you.
Stun behavior: Will actually Unstun, so you can still wipe even if you get that far.

So, effectively, the boss went from 3.75m to 10m HP (2.6x more), and the turn limit went up from 6t to 10t (1.6x more). The real problem is the fucking clownfiesta that you have absolutely no control over - you get hit by -50% Atk on turn 2? You're probably just dead. Got Paralyzed or Slept on turn 2? Well, I guess you just lose then. Just like with GO Jack, your only reliable option is to win on turn 1 (but at least unlike GO which is beginner/medium content, this is end-game content so I have slightly less issue with it). So the problem comes from are you able to save up burst through wave2, and well, that's really hard to tell just by looking at a wiki.

At least the rewards are literally doubling yours daily SSR, so that you'll actually find those SSR Tiaras now. Maybe. You wish.
Oh, and AQ7 isn't far (~7 weeks?). So even if AQ6 turns out to be easy - and it might seeing how AQ5 is just AAB material at this point - then fret not, AQ7 will probably be brutal.

i hope higher lvl aq will not drop normal acc, too tired of heap of nothingness

If by "normal" you mean "non-ancient" then no.

T7 will drop one normal/ancient plat chest, and one ancient/devil chest. Sooooo... the non-ancients will continue to be a thing even in T7.

Double posting because this is totally important.

Light was a complete joke, most likely due to the insane Dark Grid the game has thrown at us so far.
Wind was quite scary - second boss Rage Overdrive slams you for 7k AoE even with elemental advantage. Now, I can take one of those easily, maybe even two... but that's still not the kind of damage I want to see happen every few turns. I cleared Wind quite easily, but I am certainly not the average Fire player due to Belial and an insane Fire team. The lack of a proper F2P Fire Grid might topple people on this one.

Drops wise, you basically just get an extra plat box. So it kinda doubles your Accessory progress since the bottleneck is actually finding useful SSRs.

its kinda funny that my dark team performed better at wind than my fire team, (tried off-element out of curiosity), but somehow i landed almost all debuffs while off-element
otherwise, nothing much to say

So lazy to even do lvl6 AQ
Gief lvl7...hopefully just like in DMM i can auto-battle at least 2-3 element,have better grid but have 60-70% less girls here
Nothing worse to do it manually then just get garbage

This.

What element you clear them with doesn't matter, the only thing that matters is that you clear.
