Can confirm this works out very well. No outfits, with Cloud with Murasame, Tifa, and Aerith with Fairy Tale. No red star weapon except the Buster Sword. Total 55K CP and was able to clear the same stage played here just by following all your advice here. Failed only one time cause I forgot to switch back to defense stance at one of the attacks. As long as your character survive the big aoe, it is clearable!

@@darienchan1753 If you are talking about coop, depending on your account, you may need to focus on HP and hopefully find people who can carry you on the harder difficulties. If you are talking about the solo quest, make sure to unlock Shiva's summon. Doesn't have to be maxed, but at least the level 1 since it is very good at bringing down Ifrit's bar. Also make sureto bring AOE heal if possible and debuffers. Not trying to advertise my own channel, but I did upload my setup when I first starting out. Look up, "Ifrit Very Hard 2 Brixgale" and it should be my video clear. Hope this helps.

Just a quick thing, you can use heal LB and atk LB together. Just like you explained swap to defense click on heal, then swap to attack and use your attack LB. You will get the respective bonuses for each one. You also dont have to wait for the animation to finish before switching modes. You can activate your attack/heal and then immediately switch back

Going off of this, by not doing all 3 LB together at once, you actually lose out on a lot of damage. When you activate 2 LB, you get 1.10x damage, but when you activate 3 LB together, you get 1.25x damage.

Hey, something you missed about unison buffs, every time you let the guage fall in defense mode, then let it fill to max in attack mode, your stance levels up, making the meter recharge faster and it may also increase dps/defense, you'll also get big medals in co-op for doing this, so just always switch between attack and defense, let the guage fall just a tiny bit, then switch back to attack, you'll find there is a rhythm you can get into doing this where youll always be in defense mode when the boss auto attacks.

Ive been using Auto even in really hard stages and having no issues. I beat this stage at 72k. Its all about your setup and prep before the fight even starts and Auto is always gonna be faster at switching unison and doing spells than I can. The real tip here is to stop using Auto Equip and the Recommend Party button.
@AutieMedia
11 ай бұрын
I did notice too that Auto Equip/Recommended does not set up perfectly for every fight... IMO the strategy during battle still matters depending on the power recommendation and what items/equipment people have, but strategizing beforehand is also very important.
@nekotorin
11 ай бұрын
Its faster with switching for Unison/Stances BUT there's a lot of things Auto doesn't do that can be detrimental for hard stages. Like for example, Auto doesn't know when to save ATB. Big attack coming up? Or a sigil break phase coming up? Auto will always use up your ATB. Another thing is the Auto has a certain delay when casting ATB abilities. Reason for that is Auto Mode avoids animation cancelling. It tries to let a character finish their normal attack BEFORE casting. Sure that leads to more DPS but sometimes you want that heal ASAL or that Debrave etc.

I think the real problem is the x2 speed, if you're really trying to clear something close to your bp, the x2 will make it way harder, cause you won't be able to react to most of the stuff, I guess when you're way above the thing, and you just wanna quick farm, then x2 speed is fine but for a first clear of a " hard " battle, removing x2 is also gonna help a ton

Here's my TIP: Priority: 1. Chapters 2. Chocobo Missions(Unlock E+ Chocobos) 3. Co-Op (Medals/Exp/Materials) 4. Save Gems if you already have at least 2 of your 3 Main have their 5 stars. (For future OP weapons) 5. Watch Ads 6. Crisis Dungeons (OP Stats Materia exchange) 6. Synthesis - (Get at least 2 pairs of materias for 2 of your characters for Boss fights) Focus on those and in 2 weeks you'll already finished with the Chapters and most likely have enougj Stamina Bottles to go level up using Training. Before 27 days, you most likely already at 100k+ Power for all the events.

One thing if you play on PC, put a keyboard button on the switch. I have WASD as movement, F as switch and 1-5 on the buttons. Its so much easier to just press F 1 F to heal and get back to attack mode, than clicking on the buttons. But even just having a key on the switch is gonna help you so much. I click limit breaks for example.

I would add, that maintaining AOE heals from your healer is important and if you know your going to need a an AOE heal from Aerith use her limit break in tandem with everyone else. The damage multiplier is 1.25x when everyone uses their limit, whereas if you only use your 2 DPS limit break its only a 1.1x damage boost.

I know you meant you don't know other ways to get debrave materia, but for others reading out there, Aerith has a weapon that is AOE debrave. It is called Heavenly Spike, on her Full Metal Staff. Now, mind you, that makes her a full on support as it is physical damage and with her heal staff it won't do much dmg, but there may be other weapons that do this too. For me, AOE debrave is amazing for survival. I let Cloud do Cloud things for DPS.

Isn't the explanation for the modes wrong here? in manual your controlled char will not use any active skills but your other 2 chars will still be full auto. And in semi the only thing added is that your controlled character will use an active sill if your atb hits max. Auto is well full auto including switching stances. Example 10:55 where he says that the other two chars do nothing on manual. So semi mode seems kind of useless except when you lose Attention during battle, but then you could just go full auto. Dont get me wrong still love the video, this just confused me.
