Octopath COTC Defeating Largo in 9 turns with Billy and Barrad (no Cyrus)

[@orihoola]

That was incredible

[@cotc_grind1059]

thx

[@dracri112]

thanks for the experiments, they help us a lot!

[@cotc_grind1059]

Glad you like them!

[@bgsaps338]

If i don't have Falco and Lars Who should i replace them with I have Heathcote,viola Joshua, Olberic, Kouren

[@cotc_grind1059]

Lars hits 3x aoe... Cyrus would be good or Fiore in a pinch. Falco is harder bc of the extra 15% dagger dmg up. Probably some strong nuker

[@goenawanarief4027]

amazing. congratulations.

[@cotc_grind1059]

thx

[@Mooyuang]

If i don't have Therion Who should i replace them with I have Viola , Cyrus , Sofia , Scarecrow or else

[@cotc_grind1059]

Adelle would do well probably. Cyrus is a great option too.

[@Mooyuang]

@@cotc_grind1059 Thank sir 😍😍😍

[@jay5819]

Amazing! I actually have all the characters in your roster - just gotta level them up more. Would this be a stable clear or is there some rng involved?

[@cotc_grind1059]

if your A2 is awakening0 there may be dmg output or survivability problems imo

[@johnmouzakis]

GG Did it in 9 as well just used Adelle instead of Falco as I don't have him, it was a bit tighter but the 9th turn is quite forgiving.

[@cotc_grind1059]

yes exactlt

[@johnmouzakis]

@cotc_grind actually remembered to record it this time as well so hopefully I can get the rewards. It doesn't matter if I only record the final turn right?

[@cotc_grind1059]

@@johnmouzakis they accepted last fight turn + roster previously

[@johnmouzakis]

@cotc_grind apparently its just last turn now because you only need to defeat largo but we'll see I can always just redo it lol

[@lutheranvash83]

​@@johnmouzakis can you post your run im planning on using adell and would appreciate seeing your setup

[@FollowingStar83]

wow very impressive!

[@cotc_grind1059]

thx

[@Atreyu_08_alt]

I think you could lower it to 8 turns if you dealt DMG with Therion using his 450 nuke instead of the 3hit one

[@Atreyu_08_alt]

With the 3 hit you're behind the 100k barrier by 20K, and that might be the HP you're missing for the 8 turn kill GL! Hope it helps!

[@cotc_grind1059]

@@Atreyu_08_alt yeah I agree there are some bits and pieces to improve

[@antonisgkikas66]

Can the a4 accessories be replaced with sth? I only have maidens bell out of the ones you used. Also my falco is a0 can he still work?

[@cotc_grind1059]

The Maiden's Bell is the only important A4. The rest you can replace with good soul weapons

[@antonisgkikas66]

@@cotc_grind1059 also my Lars is a0 how bad is that?

[@cotc_grind1059]

@@antonisgkikas66 not much I think with the new weapons. Gotta give it a try

[@davidcole2913]

What exactly is the purpose of Billy? The defense debuff was already maxed at 30% surely anyone who could add additional turns with a defense debuff could work in his spot? Or did the speed debuff actually matter?

[@cotc_grind1059]

Billy gives 20% def down in the ultimate category. The UI doesnt show, but his and A2 ults stack with def down in the non-ult skill category

[@kelvinrojas1636]

@@cotc_grind1059 do ult def down are counted as separate so In theory I could cap 30 % down with Tithi and then billy ult and I’ll have 60% ??

[@cotc_grind1059]

@@kelvinrojas1636 correct. Billy gives 20% ult phys def down that stacks with Nicola's A4 passive AND skill based active phys def down. So almost 2x dmg if we can cap all 3

[@lutheranvash83]

just need Falco :(

[@cotc_grind1059]

you can put another nuker and a bunch of famous thief emblems

[@LeNguyen-hr6jx]

Niceeee! would it be possible in 9 turn if we do not have Alfyn? It would be nice if you can showcase the run without Alfyn hhehehe! Thank youuu

[@cotc_grind1059]

Alfyn is so good here because of his 4x single target ice besides the heal, not just pomegranate. I think Tithi could do well with some adjustments

[@VEGETK0]

is falco changable?

[@cotc_grind1059]

adelle and more dagger up items in your thieves. Famous hunter emblems from Auguste lvl 90 refight work well. otherwise other strong ice or bow nukers
