I did run my strongest team - Thunder. But I didn't even get half of her HP off with the Full Burst. Andro not being able to use PF doesn't help.

Uriel is a pretty good idea, though. It... still requires you to hit for ~584k for the rest of the characters, but that's not so rough.

P.S. Cursed Canting Chains... that is what helped me when I did my Andromeda run. That reduces the damage by 20% and can stack with Hime defense up skills (4k damage), --

I don't understand what you're getting at. When you're taking 5k damage EVERY TURN from DoTs, Def ups don't matter one bit. It's not the Rage that killed me, it's the fact that I was doing zero damage due to the debuffs and no burst, while the DoTs simply ate me alive (30% per fucking turn with probably no cap, fuck off). The Overdrive spam simply finished something that was already over.

Debuff resistance is a giant matter of luck. Especially if you're forced off-element, it's just not a thing.
Kirin didn't let me resist one single thing at least.

Also, Burst bar reduction isn't a debuff, so you can't resist it.

867k average needed for off-element one-shot... ... I'm not really sure I agree with you. With PF, it might be so, but Andromeda can't use that.

You don't necessarily have to kill it with FB only (abilities are there too). Also, if she'll be left with like ~500k you'll probably finish her anyway.

You have Tit, so Wind Andromeda can. With Sytry you can do the same turn you used PF even. Wind's number of exceed weapons should help here too, and while wind weapon grid is... not great for most people, you should have it perfectly enhanced as it's Thunder Tower now.

I clear with my dark team.

When all else fails, phantom element Thor

I gave up doing all the quests in a single day and swapped Andro for good ol' Herc. Turns out my Thunder SSRs slam about 1m damage each when try-harding for maximum damage (with -40% Def, so ~1.16m if def capped). One-pan very successful.

Good point. I didn't even consider Wind outside of Shingen. I should farm Ult Wind more, it's my least farmed Ult.

And yeah, 440% Exceed+PF should hit quite a high number as well.

FRONT-ROW FODLA
VoF/ASTRAEA
10% AFFLICTION THOR Phantom Elemental Lord Thor needs no freakin' Tiaras!
When it works, 100% guaranteed 100% clear every time.

Fucking hell, finally got Andromeda done.

Wind Andromeda failed spectacularly. Simple reason: fourth boss slammed me with Berserk right before dying, so turn1 Jack couldn't be burst, and guess what happened? Oh yeah, -30 Burst -50% Atk debuff. And it was over just like that.

I think I had a day in between where I didn't have time to try due to work.

Today, went in with Fire. Plan was to control fourth boss better with Ares' nuke, and it worked like a charm. Got hit by the Rage Overdrive, a fully Charmed team couldn't attack the boss even once during the duration (15/15 Charm procs, can I have that kind of Charm too please?). But Ares' nuke got the boss to Stun, so losing three turns meant absolutely nothing since the boss apparently couldn't even spam the DoT or Blind Triggers during. And then finally against the boss it was Uriel with 2.1m and the rest of the team 500-600k, barely oneshot the boss. Might've had a problem with even a single debuff being resisted, though.

Thank heavens I didn't need to gamble it all upon Phantom Elemental Lord Thor on the last day.


But seriously, fuck fucking Jack Lantern GO. Complete fucking horsecock bullshit. So far, bullshit GO stuff in order:
1. Jack Lantern, turn1 kill or a complete RNG clownfiesta on whether or not the boss will allow you to kill it. If you get hit by -30 Burst and -50% Atk debuff just right, you are NOT killing the damn thing.
2. Crom's Crotch. The Rage Trigger is, honestly, complete BS. You either need specific Hime to shield you from it (such as Poseidon), or you need to be strong enough to kill her without her Raging. That's not good design at all.
3. Siegfried GO missions. These might not be so bad anymore now that Energy System is out, but seriously, pre-ES Siegfried was a giant middle finger.

Sandalphon off-element pretty tough for me. That 16k AOE is no joke (except for wind and Gaia Awakened)...
