This game ruined my life. Thanks!

Instant subscribe! I love how tales players are coming back!!!!

Nice to see Sonic Barrage get some use!

Mm, your other fights are normally so one sided, it's really nice to see you styling on the two of them whilst dodging their attacks with barely a moment to spare. I really like the use of Homing Shot to air stall and glide, really clever usage!

That Terra Rupture was a bit tight there haha. Great jumps over the Wing Attack!

Jumping over the counter and dodge was very cool! I never noticed whilst playing casually, but dang Xillia bosses can be so easily manipulated!

The weakness resets are really impressive, but I also really appreciate how well you can return to the ground without having to use Dark Radiance!

Man those Rising Phoenix back steps dodges were very cool, it's impressive how you could so seamlessly slide them into a combo without really going idle!

A racist Gajuma getting beat up by another Gajuma. Oh, the irony.

This is awesome! Wish namco could translate this game and other japan only Tales of releases

damn, this is making me wish there was more Rebirth content like this

Samu representing the best Rebirth character 😤😤 Using food to get a refill on artes is also such a big brain move, reminds me of some Vesperia combos that used it for the agility buff (though not as useful as it is here!)

Nice! Make Hilda’s!

Even though you say you "don't really know what you're doing", this was very clean! Pretty good spacing and punishes, especially the jump attack to hit Tohma out of Real Smash

Hilda on the floor traumatized and just sics Eugene to kick his ass

Tohma got absolutely BULLIED lmao. The spacing in this fight was excellent, my favorite punish was at 0:30, theres something extra funny about that jump slash going through his little punch. 😂

I dunno anything about this game but this was a fun watch. I love the way you play around Tohma's attacks, the neutral here is so nice! My favorite moment is when you throw him to another line and then catch him as he comes back to the original line :O

Cooked 🔥

Peak tales of combat. Jude kept me playing for hours. Nice video!

THIS IS AMAZING!!!!

when do we get this back? 🙄

Hyped for Xillia Remastered?

Another Musee solo from the 🐐! Love the play around the OVL here. I honestly kinda suck at repeatedly dodging Seize Throw for some reason so it's fun to watch here + that perfectly timed Souryuu Rengazan at the end of the OVL to cancel the Elemental Hymn is just beautiful!

Take me to the ball game, cuz you just knocked her outta the park!

🐐 Moment

Least amount of 5% stuns in a Samu combo 😂 The windows those stuns give you to charge and/or use Squall Shot can't be understated. Also very cool.to see an X1 specific combo thanks to the crit skill.

There goes Samu, flexing his finely tuned Alvin. Gotta love RNG combos, am I right...? O_o

Im in the process of trying to learn Xillia 2 competently, and man, this is just crazy inspiration. That jude solo with no PC and intentional hienrenyaku whiffs is so technical. Good stuff!

The master of weakness resets! Some really amazing work done here. Extra credit for doing Chronos without Power Charge; that one looked REALLY nice. Muzet as well. Those two stand out, but all the others have also been done very well. Was never really great at the weakness reset myself, but its nice to see how all the characters can utilize the mechanic =03.

I feel weird commenting here since we talked about it BUT hey still impressive stuff specially I like Judo and Muzet. More Elize content increasing Samu Elize run chances every second now

Why is he so cool? Samu must be the GOAT 😊 I still can't believe my eyes when I watch the Leia, Gaius, and Musee solos! The effort you put in and accumulated experience/game knowledge really shows in every solo and each one is beautiful to watch ❤

Lesgoooo My brain will always short-circuit into hype whenever i see combo resets. Even if it's on Julius. I suck at them they are like magic to me. And of course everyone is here. Nobody is missing.

Samu may not be a mailman but he always delivers 🗣🗣

Good to see ya back! Could be bias, love what you did with the casters! Some of the spell timings with Elize and Muzét looked super tight! Glad you found some enjoyment in X2 again! 💖

▶ Leia vs. Julius - 0:00 ∟ Double Damage, 2 Resets This was the spark of it all, I had no plans whatsoever to return to this game, but I was in a call with a certain someone who was getting into running this game, which lead to some co-op labbing sessions.. And I eventually got enough ideas to just do a one-off myself. Leia's weapon pool in the early game is extremely lacking (though this can be circumvented with Fancy Elements), which lead me to picking Julius as her opponent. While not the hardest boss out there, the wind weakness certainly compliments Leia's kit. She also suffers from poorly short timers with most of her artes, even with the additional effects there's only a couple of good timers at her disposal. This combined with her bad line-up with hitting different elements can get very costly when it comes to dps. However, with Julius' wind weakness it's possible to craft some quite nifty weakness resets! While Julius does have both ground- and air enabled counters in both pools, he seems to prioritize the sidestep and Air OVL in this encounter specifically, how convenient! Shunjinsou, which I think is a pretty bad arte with it's end lag and height loss in the air, works quite well in my favor for a reset here. Ensenda timed right towards the end of a gauge lines up perfectly for a low mid-air Shunjinsou to hit a new weakness as well as trigger an air counter which in best case scenario leads into Julius attempting to use Air OVL which fails as he lands, letting the combo continue normally. Shoubu Koubappa is one of my favorite artes for Leia (I swear it's not X1 bias), but it can be quite tricky to land mid-combo against a human boss due to it's long start-up and heavy knockback. However if timed well and spaced properly it can flow well and look quite nice on the eyes! Senpuukon is overall a pretty awful arte, but it has some slight juggling properties and if timed in a manner in which the last hit lands outside of a weakness combo, it will trigger a low aerial counter and can act as a reset on it's own, wow it almost feels like I'm playing Alvin! In any case, once the 2nd reset is conquered, I proceed into stacking all my available elements with an aerial chain and finish it off with a Yousou Rakubakushuu into MA. ▶ Jude vs. Chronos - 0:54 ∟ Double Damage, No Weakness This was actually tedious lol. The start into OVL bait is actually quite consistent as Chronos likes to guard multi-hits, especially straight from idle. I'm not too satisfied with the neutral play that follows after, as I miss a Snap Pivot off of a Chronos Collider, however I do make up for it by back-manipping and successfully dodging a second one with Hitenshouku. Chronos only has a single air counter, this being the Air OVL. So once his Overlimit runs out he'll enter a cooldown (which is like 1min or so, I never bothered to time this lol) in which he can't trigger Overlimit again. During this window, Chronos is completely free to combo in the air as he's been stripped of his only counter. Do note that dealing a clean hit while grounded will trigger another counter chance, this hit always needs to launch him and be followed up immediately mid-air. I make use of another Snap Pivot to hit a Garouhouko at his back, guaranteeing a stagger with the cost of my first free knockdown. I follow with an instant Rengadan (AC can get very tight here so I make use of any chance to preseve it) and OTG with Eishourai. This ensures that the next hit I deal will trigger a counter, which is exactly what I want. For whatever reason, the L1 Launcher into Rondosenpuu + Air Normal combo is inconsistent against Chronos and will only work consistently if the 2nd hit of the Launcher deals an unclean hit. This is when the "hard part" starts. While Jude has the tools to juggle in the air, he is far from an air-focused fighter which can lead to a combo that looks awfully repetitive.. To counter this, I brought in Milla with me so I have access to Wind Cutter when linked to her, which unironically helps quite a bit for being a single additional arte! As another way of combatting the repetitiviness, I threw in as many Air Normal as I could.. This was a decision that nearly drove me crazy as they liked to whiff every so often and it was not too uncommon to find myself run out of AC... Not to mention Hienrenkyaku being an absolute bottom tier arte to use in the air, the last hit makes the enemy drop like a rock.. While under normal circumstances this is hardly an issue as you can just follow up with Saihyoujin or such, I can't stress enough how I literally can not let Chronos land (without knockdown). So ideally, you have the 3rd hit skill equipped and position yourself in a way that the last hit whiffs completely. Once successfully going through with the first chain of attacks, I quickly return to the ground and side-swap with Mueishou and AC Reset. Chronos' long knockdown timer is practically begging for it, so I make use of another Milla link extension. Sazanka -> Grave actually changes the hit properties and the last hits do indeed OTG, though the latter will trigger another ground counter which I have to address by immediately following up with Garyoukuuha. If the RNGods allow it and I can get through the 2nd chain without running out of AC, I can peacefully return to the ground. Despite hitting the OTG limit, I can still extend my arcane with unclean hits. And yeah, I had to go for the secret MA. Meteor Swarm is actually weaker than Satsugeki Bukouken, at least without weakness stacked lol. ▶ Rowen vs. Aska - 2:08 ∟ No Multipliers, 2 Timestops This is very, very much a gimmick combo, however it is one that I wanted to do a long time ago. This is only possible to do against Aska as he's the only enemy in the game with hazards that appear even while he's being combo'd. Starting the battle off by approaching the boss and casting a Tetra Spell to wear off the penetrate and throwing out a Severed Fate just before the first light pillar indicator spawns. This actually works surprisingly well, as long as I don't get more than one crit during the spells, Severed Fate will always stagger and begin a weakness combo. I immediately follow up by walking towards the middle of the pillar spawn and backstep to trigger Splendor Time. The duration of the time stop was nerfed from X1, so it can be quite tricky to follow up without an existing arte chain, but thankfully there is a very foolproof setup with Bright Bell and Freeze Lancer. As I prepare for the next pillar I end the chain with Splash into Crag Waltz. The latter is very important as it's by far the longest lasting active hitbox Rowen has access to, while it's betting on the roll RNG it allows me to end with a different chain instead of repeating the first time stop. As long as I roll one more petrify after Air Pressure I'm good to go with Divine Streak and Tidal Wave. It's worth to mention as well, Aska sports among the fastest knockdown recovery times in the game so Crag Waltz wouldn't even work without the time stop, as it takes a minimum of 3 hits to have a chance to petrify with these early game stats. Even though this is a quick one I'm quite happy with the outcome. My goal was to do no repeated action after staggering which I did in fact get. As a side note, if I used a normal attack at any point I could have hit full weakness, which in case it's not obvious would have been straight up overkill lol.

Wish he was legit in the game. His wide movepool in a modern Tales game is so good.

Lol i thought Cress is playable character in tox2 but its just costume for Jude

could you upload tales of xillia battle voice clips? they arent on youtube :(
