FFXVI | Kairos Gate Warden of Darkness Fight

#FF16

[@YUXKE]

This is a blind run 1st attempt at the last floor. Don’t expect high performing gameplay here.

Bro I can’t believe this ain’t got 1 mil views that combo was crazy

[@RudyGalebayi-gn3dy]

Odin. This is a human sized Odin.

[@erefen]

great finisher

[@YUXKE]

New Ultima abilities are quite insane!

[@user-wt7rm1ze3i]

I just finished this day before yesterday and got Original Sin, one step closer to having this game Platinum, the only thing I am struggling with now is the Chronolith Trials, I just can't get enough time for the final stage bosses, plus I am not good with countering in this game, my timing is super off

[@YUXKE]

Nice nice. Even leviathan has a CT in Mysidia too. Not too hard compared to a couple other trials. Doesn’t seem to be required for trophy either but then again I already had platinum before the DLCs. That said I never tried the Final CT challenges from the Arete Stone in the hideaway myself. Best of luck to you mate.

[@user-wt7rm1ze3i]

@@YUXKE I actually finished that one during Rising Tide, it was honestly quite simple considering almost all Leviathans abilities are AOE based other than Deluge, it's for the Circle of Malius for the collection or curiosities they call them

[@user-wt7rm1ze3i]

@@YUXKE Thought I would give an update, I just completed all Chronolith Trials and got the few trophies for the Eikonic abilities like Never Coming Down, last one is Packing Heat to successfully use Heatwave Counter

[@YUXKE]

@@user-wt7rm1ze3i congratulations! Yeah heatwave counter is super easy to get off so you’ll finish up in no time.

[@user-wt7rm1ze3i]

@@YUXKE Just got the Platinum, figured since I was at the end of the game I might as well finish it by defeating Ultima

[@solracstormhunter3023]

Since you rely on Leviathan for evasion, I'd master "Diamond Dust" and switch Shiva for Titan, that way you have Leviathan for ranged attacks and Titan for defense. Odin wants to get up close more often, than using flying slahes.

[@YUXKE]

Oh for sure. I mentioned to another comment -- this was a first attempt and blind reaching the last floor. If I were to redo the fight I’d have a skill or two swapped out and just wait and counter more intently. Not remembering what’s coming and getting punished for not fighting this guy since a year ago was not on the agenda at this time haha

[@solracstormhunter3023]

@@YUXKE I appreciate it when games have a boss rush/boss selection mode like this, or DMC'5s Bloody Palace. You can train against bosses, learn their patterns, or try out defferent experiments. I for example, wouldn't dare to fight Odin with Phoenix, Ramuh and Garuda, that combination gives the fewest advantages against Odin. 😅

Just practice how to dodge normally yeesh

@@solracstormhunter3023skill issue, i am sorry.

[@y.m.6911]

Too clumsy. You get bodied at 3:05 for being too greedy, so the fight becomes a cowardly Will of the Wykes / Leviathan snooze fest to salvage the Kairos run. There are a couple more mistakes here and there that I am sure you too could realise on the fly, like wasting at a certain point whatever little was left of your Limit Break without recovering HP and dealing with a tense situation where getting hit could have been the end. Congratulations on completing the run though.

[@YUXKE]

You are correct on all accounts. This was a first attempt and blind, and I just wanted to get it done. Performance is definitely barely serviceable haha, no arguments there.

[@christopher_loren]

Imagine taking the time to shit on someone playing a video game and posting their first clear online. Some of OP's early stuff was nasty, and it didn't really become a snoozefest. For a first run it was better than what most people would do. Also, nearly everyone who plays this game crutches zantsetsuken and diamond dust, who the hell cares if OP uses Wykes?
