Thread: Is it just me or is Mastema easier....

Mastema is more demanding for me tbh...
i did 3 Mastema / 3 Kyuki Ragna on two accs each, all of them with dark teams aab (just starting battle, aab and alt-tab)
so far i failed 1 Mastema on each acc, and 0 Kyuki

guess i need a bit better dark teams lol

For me the same.
Mastema ragna is harder than Kyuki...

Mastema's rougher for me in that there's more variance due to Mastema having a special attack. So, poor luck with Thunder Bolt spam can be really annoying. Kyuuki doesn't even have a special attack as far as I've seen, so results are more consistent.

my wind team can go a more defense route and outlast mastema so she's cake... a few times she came close (like leaving my poor SSR cybele at 91 HP), but i can clear the mastema ragnarok w/o anyone dying...

it's more or less how prepared you are on that front...


as for drops... there's some slight variance (there should be at least 3 gold chests per ult clear but i get 4 most of the time), but ultimate is hands down the best grind spot. if you can, toss in D'art with snatch 2nd as ex skill and grind like that if you can handle it (if you got slephir or anzu, that helps further)

raging move can nuke multiple people but causes a debuff (forgot which one). does hurt a bit, but can be resisted well enough with a good setup (needs some luck though as it's random who she hits)

as for the normal one, it's more of a threat cause it takes her high atk power and spikes it... even with 50% atk down, she still hits for 3k+ with no defenses on your team... and that's just regular attacks against a fire team (others take even more damage). might wanna end the fight fast or remove that atk buff...

Did you undergo significant weapon grid and/or hime upgrade since you fought Mastema last time?

If you have, that's probably the main reason for it.

I guess most has already been said about this, but the only thing I don't always like is the steep difference in difficulty between standard, expert and beyond. I can easily run standard fully automatic without using powers and I could probably even turn off bursts if I wanted to. But Expert can pretty much wipe out my whole team if I'm not careful.

Now, I'm not complaining or anything because it definitely makes sense and they're consistent with this too (the same happened with the last event). It's just that I couldn't help but notice.

What I do enjoy however is seeing how my teams are slowly but steadily getting stronger

More of future event eidolon fights will introduce anti-Auto and anti-Abi Auto trigger skills.

Enjoy your Auto fights while you still can.
