Use this as the cover.

I don't recall Elliot having a thing with eggs in CS1. Is this a CS2 meme?

He's in a specific, telegraphed stance that is a 100% counter rate. Using that turn to heal/buff.


Even when he doesn't have
his weapon across hus chest and is open
he just dodges and counters, used both heals by that point..


I just went back to an old save and will use the pom pom things, this is bullshit annoying

Are you attacking his weak spots correctly, and are you using counter yourself and keeping up the 90cp buff?

Each stance there is a correct action, take a look on the walkthrough on gamefaqs, there is pics of each stance and what you have to do.

(those pics don't work on mobile, btw, I had to use trial and error, lol)


Yeah, I'm keeping buffed and get all the stances up to that point (uner 40k hp), once you get there regardless which spot you hit, he doges and counters. I'm at lvl 66 now, so I'll trying getting to 70 if I could figure out how to use these stupid baits, lol

He should not be countering you if you hit the correct weak spot. Check this guide:

Maybe. You might have just had a better strategy. I think most times people have trouble with any Kiseki Boss they're just trying to brute force it, and get wiped by an S-Craft or something
 
wait, how do you get rean's avoid above 100%? whats the setup?

You mean Evasion?

I think it's something like
Ultimate Weapon - 15%
Aeolus Gem - 15%
Golden Mail(Legram Exclusive) - 10%
Orion Boots - 10%
Evergreen x 2 - 20%(10%x2)
Evade 2 - 10%
Evade 1 - 5%
Shining(rare version) - 5%
Thors/Raven*- 10%

You can get 99% with Wing and Falco* as well.

Setup works for Rean, Gaius, Jusis, Fie and Crow I think.

It's far FAR easier to just get characters to 50% and abuse Insight status though

*Assuming Max Rank for Master Quartz

Elliot and his eggs are overrated.

GOD JUSIS AND HIS BITTER SANDWICHES OR REAN'S HURRICAN HOTPOT.

God I love the cooking mechanics in this game.

Okay so for a second there I thought you said daddy. Weirded the fuck outta me instantly.

All this "waifu" talk got to your head!

Really? Woot, time to abuse it!

I implore that you don't use it as much as I did. It's not all that necessary and it is a tedious process to use at length. Still, nice to never have money be an issue.

Spoilers for one midgame character reveal

Thanks Kira!

Is this in regards to CSI or CSII?

man nord is too big.

wonder if this area was just for them to flaunt their tech muscles or something lol.

just glad the other 'highway maps' aren't this big.

Trust me, an environment like that shouldn't be used to flaunt anything. lol. I'm guessing it was more in the sake of variety/experimentation. While I wasn't in love with the horse riding itself, I found it succeeded in making for a mechanical change of pace.

running around wasn't an issue. its all the sidequests designed to 'make' you run around way too much lol.

Even some of the map layout was designed to make sure you are running around more than you should... someone really should have built a ramp or stairs over this tiny elevation :p

its the pointless sidequests too.

Girl go ask what the boy's favorite color is yourself. don't make me do that shit. no wonder japan's in a birthrate crisis.

Just finished the game today. Ending make me hype for CS2. Couldn't imagine people having to wait for almost a year feel or years for those that play the Japanese version lol.

I especially love at end:
Talking cat in giant talking-robot...just like super robot anime/games. I hope there is more of that in CS2. lol

Also
#TeamLaura + #TeamTowa

Those can kind of be mitigated if you tackle them in the right order, since some quests will take you straight back to where you want to go at certain triggers

but yeah those suck too. but I mean those fetch quests suck on foot as well.

Ok, so I boosted to lvl 82 and is was a breeze fight. That final scene though, if there was no sequel coming out in two days, I'd be soooooooooo pissed off right now.

Some of us have been waiting for 8 months.

Although it's not as bad as the four year wait after Trails in the Sky's cliffhanger.

Just wish that fight was better. Really did kill some of the hype it was setting up.

Was all like "Hyp----.... man I hope this new mechanic is improved in the sequel, because this is awful".

Man, you'd ask that little girl to cross the Nord plains on her own? You monster. :p

are there any Nord style maps in 2?

I have it on good authority that
you'll be traveling through Nord again
. So there's that.

I had a really good time with it

It was a huge contrast from every other fight where i'd slaughter; it was a pretty intense struggle to come out on top since
you had to completely change your strategy.
