Okay, watching YouTube videos for tips and advice for this GW is useless to me. All these guys are sporting things like full double Hades grids with four FLB +99 Gisla and other such super-setups that are too far beyond mine to be any reference. So how is everybody else doing and getting through the nightmare fights? I can get through them myself, but not very pretty-ly and not in a respectable amount of time. -_-

Well I slowly made the standard hybrid grid for Dark.
3 claws 2 axes, Diablo Katana, unk, baha weapon, ultima sword and Hermanubis as main hand because I go using Berserker. So far is working well. I'm bringing Dispel, Zephyrus and Rosetta Dark in the back to remove those annoying local buffs. Characters are Orchis, Vira for veil and Zeta.

Using the 5 claws 2 Old Cortana Celeste grid for this GW.
The team is Zoey, DAO, Azazel or Veight. Zoey is there for HP1. DAO is THE MVP with her HP trigger blocking. Really really helps in manipulating my hp by controlling on when the HP trigger hits. I can constantly stay below 30% hp thanks to her. Veight is the damage dealer + evade tank. Let me laugh atthe 50% if I can't avoid it, and hts super hard in general. Azazel, using him when I need debuff more than evade tanking. |

I’m running two slightly different grids and parties.
For faster damage in Extreme+ and when I join another nightmare with EP, I run GW gauntlets, 5x Celeste claw, 1 Celeste axe, Baha dagger Codus, Diablo katana, and Old Cortana with Luchador and Tag Team, Orchid, dark Jeanne, and Zooey. For more longevity/more soloing, same grid but maining GW dagger with Chaos Ruler and Splitting Spirit, with Orchid, Seoux, and dark Jeanne. I have light Carbuncle, FLB Athena, and FLB DAO in my summons for both setups. I don’t have Veight, DAO (character), or Azazel. Vira is on backup. Pretty simple setups but they work well for the most part. I just know there are other players who are doing better though, between having other dark characters to use and weapons like Hermanubis, Atma, and Ultima weapons. On Hermanubis, I don’t think I asked this question yet but how essential is it to have a fully uncapped weapon? Like, if I got any new weapon (not just Hermanubis) when I next built up enough prestige points, would it be too weak/useless until I increased its level cap enough, or are its weapon skill(s) good enough that it would make a difference right at level 40? (and max skill level of course) And on another note there, is the new CA cap 1.7 million now? Because I’m constantly hitting that with my dark parties and no higher. How hard is it to beat Ultimate Bahamut for Atma and Ultima weapons? I’m assuming it takes a serious party and coordination like dark pot? My RL still doesn’t meld well with a strict gaming schedule, but I’d certainly like to try for an Atma and Ultima if I could. It feels like Atma/Ultima fists would work quite well with a Celeste enmity grid, Luchador, Orchid, Seoux, and Azazel. Quote:

Some are pretty good. You can't make more than 2 Omega/Ultima weapons and reforging them is a pain in the ass.
Planning on getting the Harp for them echoes thanks to Nio and making Rosetta even more irrelevant lol. Then next priorities would be Spear and Bow... If only they fixed their respective classes first.

Hopefully the echo will be 30% or so. I don't think I'll bother if it is just 20%
But I am not trusting the harp yet. We don't know if it response to 9's coma or not. Chaos Ruler's Sword is not bad too, but Blood Sword has too long of a coo down for that to be good. The Spear... we'll talk if they reduce Absa's ability cool down. Edit: The berserker weapon is actually good for dark magna grid with it's Ougi. Due to dark is the only magna grid with good MA rate, thus can afford not use the GW dagger as main hand. Last edited by shmaster; 2018-02-22 at 04:07. |

The weapons all look good. The problem is the amount of grinding needed to get what is essentially a small upgrade over other weapons available for each class. I'm going to need to see some numbers first.
