FINAL FANTASY XVI: Odin, Warden of Darkness [No Ultimates, No Damage, FF Mode]

[@R15-99]

I just finally noticed something. Every time you use an ability that slows down time (excluding parrying), Barnabas rift slips out of it. Quite an insane detail

[@Adrastea768]

That lightning rod + megaflare dodges on blinding steel was awesome. Great fight overall.

[@noble7jamie]

Thank you! It took some time to get the timing right, but the combo was wonderful to pull off!

[@tamarcussingleton9251]

“Blessed with a might of a god yet you still fight like a man” he fighting godly to me!

[@noble7jamie]

Thank you! That taunt was in my head throughout the hours of practice. It feels insanely satisfying to live up to the might of a god in the no damage attempt.

[@tamarcussingleton9251]

@@noble7jamie 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Reflection of fire gear Op!

[@Babamarcus2632]

But that is a raw line you have to admit

[@momotarodemo1]

OMFG, it is imposible for me to achieve this technique…

[@noble7jamie]

Thank you! I believe you can do something great with this game. Practice, practice, practice with the game’s actual fights, and always look for ideas from other players. You got this!

[@WillBlanchard-go4qu]

Finally, a player with some ACTUAL SKILL, and doesn't just spend the whole fight behind stunlocking, shiva freezing, rift slips and max level Zantetsuken. I find myself so much more entertained by you out of all of the no damage KZbinrs. My dad and I have played this game and he always sacks on me for having low dodging skill after watching you I feel inspired to git gud now. Have you ever done a no damaged with the titanic counter? One little thing I've noticed is that at 6:19, Odin's eyes are bloodshot. Or it's just the lighting but I always found that to be a cool detail. Also I get that there is the possible Barnabas being the servant of Ultima and that's why is mouth is not shown while semi-primed but I think it would've been cool to see a no full helmet semi-prime of Odin. Following the Odin logic would Leviathan's semi-prime just be a fish head 🤣.

@@WillBlanchard-go4qu Thank you, glad you enjoyed these videos! With Titanic Block No Damage, here’s some videos of mine to look at. Sekhret, Thalaos, Gizamaluk, Ultima Build 2 (Iron Giant), Sigma, Egi Sisters, and Ten of Clubs. Another fun idea with Titan is combining the Raging Fist Block (Just the block part) with Rift Slip or Limit Break immediately after a block to get a block with just an ability. Frees up a Eikonic Trait Slot if you want to use other Eikons. Kuza Beast, Sleipnir, and Hreidmar are my key examples. Have fun expressing yourself in Final Fantasy XVI! Go get ‘em No Damages!

[@SouljaStrife]

That heatwave tech is so cool, I already loved using it to counter projectiles but I had no clue you could just mix it with two other abilities to avoid cooldown So it’s “Counter>RS> Phoenix shift”?

[@noble7jamie]

Glad you enjoyed the use of Heatwave Cancel! The Heatwave Cancel is Heatwave First Hit (Wing Slam) > RS/LB.

[@gabrielmena5902]

Wow, I didn't know you could parry his circle of malius skill at 12:43 that's insane

[@omeanswerone]

Great as Always. So If we use a Rift Slip right after Heatwave, then Heatwave has no cooldown right? That is something never expected!

[@noble7jamie]

Huge credit goes to Eyre for discovering this Heatwave cancel technique. It’s so useful for handling a lot of projectile chains and for combos. Source: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4HZYWx8jrGYe6ssi=_smaXsmV-jx7fp85

[@noble7jamie]

Thank you! I put everything I had into the fight. The last few minutes after Circle of Malius, I was exhausted but kept fighting.

[@kasavaman007]

odin getting rekt'd hard. awesome skills an parries

[@noble7jamie]

Thank you so much! I loved how this fight turned out too!

[@viewtifulzet593]

Awesome stuff! Yeah, KZbin takes a while.

[@noble7jamie]

Thank you! This fight was a personal victory, first time doing the No Damage run without Wyll O’ the Wykes or Ultimates.

[@سلطان-ك2خ]

Incredible

[@noble7jamie]

Thank you! This fight set my heart ablaze.

[@Fain255]

This is amazing. How long did you have to practice to get it this perfectly?

[@noble7jamie]

Thank you! I wanted this fight to be my best. Practice Time: 25 hours, split between 4 sessions. Two 8 hours, one 6 hours, and one 3 hours. I had free time after College, so I wanted to make the fight great.

[@Fain255]

@@noble7jamie Wow, that's some dedication, and it definitely paid off. Those parries are beautiful. Impressive af

[@noble7jamie]

@@Fain255 Thank you so much! The Phoenix Parries were so pretty, agreed.

[@R15-99]

Is it just me or has anyone noticed that Odin is the only dominant when fully primed as well, you cannot see his mouth. It’s just a big helmet covering it. The only dominant without a visible mouth even when fully primed.

[@noble7jamie]

Do you feel that a Mouthless Eikon may have meaning in the story? Like, Odin/Barnabas as the slave to Ultima’s will.

[@R15-99]

@@noble7jamie could be. Honestly, Barnabas is still the most intimidating and mysterious dominant. His backstory is insane if you read the Ultimania.

[@noble7jamie]

@@R15-99 I remember reading about that Ultimania backstory too, and my reaction was genuine surprise.
