EX3 9S? in 9 turns - Octopath Traveler: COTC

[@Oncomingstorm777]

Finally - one without A2 and others I don’t have

[@alfredogarcia6196]

Exactly, i was losing hope

[@sk8oblaze]

man i was almost able to beat this following this but your units had just much more sp than mine. its the only reason i couldnt win i ran out and couldnt use any skills since my damage comes up short compared to yours. especially elrica

[@ryuurei3728]

Sorry to hear that ...

[@i-superpanda-i8365]

Thank you for this solonless gameplay ;-;

I take it there's no way to actually stop him from landing an instant kill on one of your party members if he uses Volatile Spear.
EDIT: Managed to do it by replacing my A2 with EX Fiore.

Thank you

Brother should I replace lucetta with Billy ,I don't understand why she is there?

[@ryuurei3728]

Yeah she's there for something that I completely forgot to do in this clear lol, I explained it in the description after I realized it
Lucetta (and Mabel) can extend buffs given to the row partner by 1 turn and that applies to pet buffs. That allows you to stack pet buffs which usually last for the turn you use it, here Elrica should have used p.atk cat on turn 6 for 10% p.atk pet buff and Rinyuu should have used Nyaguste on Elrica for 20% p.atk and crit for a total of 30% p.atk and 20% crit up for the last 2 turns of break. In this clear Lucetta at leasts make Nyaguste's 20% p.atk/crit up buff on Elrica last for the last turns of break, you'll notice that I used Nyaguste on turn 8 but I still had the buff active on turn 9
That way you have 30% p.atk from pet buffs that also stack with active p.atk buff from Richard/Serenoa (and ult buffs if I had any) since they are different categories of buffs and will make Elrica hit very big numbers

@@ryuurei3728 oh now I get it,thanks. I was wondering watching clears on RUclips that why are they using lucetta when they can use Billy for 20% def down.Now I know why lucetta is better in these scenarios 👍.Thanks man

[@ryuurei3728]

@@utkarshgoel1180 You'll see Lucetta more often in speedclears because she can also apply p.def down with one of her skill and ult p.def down if you can charge her ult on time, for example with Auguste's A4

[@utkarshgoel1180]

@@ryuurei3728 yeah she has aoe def down both skill and ult,which is really good against a horde or enemies.
