What is the chocobo race people were on about? I just did one on the calm plains first time an got a trophy. Surely that wasn't it?!
Has anyone managed to beat Dark Bahamut?!
I'm really struggling against him, I beat Anima with ease but Bahumat is kicking my arse everytime.
I don't want to use Zanmato as that's just a cheap victory
I killed him without any real trouble, I could have got lucky i guess. I had an armour with ribbon and two with stoneproof. One with auto phoenix, and a bit of auto haste/auto protect. I couldn't use my good armours with all auto protect/phoenix/haste because they didn't have stoneproof. Just make sure to cast dispel when he full breaks everyone, else they will get one hit next move. Summon an Aeon for his overdrives and kill him. Also cast auto-life then how can you lose?
Raised my luck to around 140 for each of my main 3 (Yuna, Rikku and Tidus) and have been farming Yojimbo for Dark Matter. Every quick attack lands without fail
Only need another 10 and I can get ribbon on one of my armours.
For the next ribbon I just need a few more Tonberry (Omega Dungeon) to get 5 of every creature, that'll give me 99 Dark Matters.
Then spam Yojimbo again for the 3rd ribbon
Do you need that much luck? I've got Tidus up to 100 (I'll get my other 2 mains to here as well) don't really want to grind for any more if I can avoid it.
When I'm filling out the grid with my other chars I'm definitely going to use clear spheres on all the luck nodes.
Well when I was trying to fight Yojimbo to farm Dark Matters, I didn't have great luck so Quick hit kept missing.
Get it to 140ish and every attack lands making the fight go much quicker.
Oh and you definitely wont be able to hit Dark Bahamut or one of the Magus Sisters without it
It's not difficult to farm the luck spheres, it just takes a bit of time tbh.
Even with 255 accuracy?
I'm trying to decide whether it would take longer to beat these Aeons missing 99% of hits or if it would take longer to grind my luck to 140.![]()
I've maxed out Tidus' grid now. I've got him up to about 110 luck. I'll have to see how it goes, if I really need to I'll use clear spheres and up it some more although I have heard of people beating all the dark aeons/penance with 35 luck so it should be do-able!
I think I'm going to complete everyones grid then beat the aeons/penance. It will be more satisfying seeing the platinum trophy pop up after beating a boss rather than filling out the grid.
Good luck with that! It'd be interesting to see your tactics if you manage to beat them!
Using your tactics above should work regardless, right? Overdrives aren't affected by accuracy/luck I don't think?
I didn't realise that using clear spheres would delete stats already learn't (even though it makes sense). So I'm going to have to beat all the bosses before maxing out everyone elses grid.
I've beaten, Velefor (1 hitted him with attack reels), Ifrit and Shiva. Died against Bahumat (only attempted it once) but didn't miss at all with 114/115 luck.
Is BHPL highly recommended to fight Penance? I've read it's really not needed but can be difficult. One thing I've noticed is Rikkus overdrives are kind of pointless without BHPL.
