1) Imperil + Deprotect + Elemental Attribute damage doubled the Cut Values of his attacks, enabling interruptions, which is why he was able to Arrow/Kick to interrupt the tier-3 spells and even Wings of Destruction. After Stagger, Bhuni gains Unprotected (+50% physical). Deprotect (+33% Physical) and Imperil (x 1.5 Elemental) resulted in 1.88*1.5, which exceeded 2x damage. Cut values of his attacks doubled, which is why Yellow numbers appeared when WW Kick and Artermis Arrows were casted, which exceeded all of Bhunivelze's Keep values of 95. You'll notice that after the EnAero effect disappears, the numbers return to grey, which means the Cut values are no longer doubled and he can't interrupt Bhunivelze's casting any longer. Ie: If you're having trouble with him, bring a stock of Elemental Potions. Once you've staggered him, drink a Potion OPPOSED to his Spirit, Overclock and just destroy him before he ever gets into his Physical mode. 2) I'm more impressed that he managed to stagger the second form with nothing to Preserve the stagger gauge. It was entirely -ra spells without WW Kick to stabilize the gauge. Nice Guarding on Heartless Angel to keep the stagger gauge up.
+Ward_Point Thanks for the analysis. I thought that the yellow numbers meant he was dealing damage while the enemy was staggered, like in 13-1 and in 13-2. I don't think you have to perfect guard Heartless Angel? Sorry, been a while
+musicmaniack256 if u dont perfect guard Heartless Angel, u will end up with 1 hp after the attack. i dont know if normal guarding will reduce the damage though or still put your hp 1 one.
Actually i just did it with Sacred Knight garb... almost all attack can be guarded except for wings of destruction.. since you have to stagger it when he casted it like Ward_Point already explained. Even Damnatio Memorae is 100% guarded by Sacred Knight with Heavy Guard max level
I could NOT beat this version to save my life. I thought I was screwed and would need to do another playthrough and try and tackle him then. I used your setup (as best I could since I was missing some stuff) and after a couple hours of trying I finally did it. Thank you SO MUCH for this video. I even got to finally experience the after credits scene. Good work! You're a real Lightning expert!
I know much of the hate for this game is cuz of the difficulty, but I actually really liked the combat system. It was different, new. It used the ATB system in a completely new way.
Just to clarify, you cannot interrupt wings of destruction without the enaero item, full buff and debuff plus boss in thunder form (hard hitter 3 on both attackers as well)- any other conditions and you will fail to interrupt. hope that helps ppl who are frustrated. Just escape and reload if he does not choose thunder. 5k max str should be enough. If you time your attacks right you should be able to interrupt every spell he casts during the enaero duration, which you should do aggressively to make sure he's taken down in this form before switching to physicals. You can overclock once or twice during this period and also once in its final form to induce stagger and still score almost a million 5 star rating.
Probably the only boss where they change the fight for a bit in hard mode. I never thought it would have like 4 phase in normal mode. I was freaked out lol.
she saw he got damage after she leveled up to be a charmer among 10 box of 15 forms so get win as well.. But it means she look damn after using or use the “sacrifice or tributes” for trophy ah yes a bit hardly usual. Go down to lvl 1.. HP go down too.. But it ok.. he still under her control same she did to all in next places(wildlands) until he really finished. Like you move chess on table.. something have to be lose but can build in future.. worth that pricing
"God...is defeated...by the children of men...?" Nope. You were defeated by the Master! What an improvement this fight was over the Japanese version. What were the tactics you used this time around masterLL? Do you just go all in and not give him opportunities to attack? Cause you seemed very aggressive in this fight.
My Just Timing for the Kick greatly improved, plus I was able to get some items I never gotten on my JP version, so I was able to take advantage of those said accessories to help improve my gameplay. And yes, I was a lot more aggressive this time since I didn't want to mess around with his first Phase as much (I really hate his Physical Mode).
Hi MasterLL, How did the "Attacker", "Matrix" and "Goddess Mode" appeared on screen? I change my gard into Martial Monk is still stated Martial Monk on screen
Great Video! this looks like a great strategy that i'd like to try. I've been tinkering with diff ways of beating Bhuni and came across yours. any chance i could get a list of the "added effects" on all the Abilities on each of your Schema? it would most appreciated. thanks. and again, very very cool video!
I used your method Imperli and deprotect to make him weak to elemental attacks which works but then he started attacking me different from this video. I'm playing on hard plus. I have the same set up and it's total horse shit. All my weapons and shields are maxed and my stats are very high considering I went through the game 6 times on hard without beating this boss fight.
keep in mind you need to knock him back when doing first phase, when he uses monad beget, start hitting with artemis arrow and then more power on whirlwind kick, forcing him to skip wings of destruction... for final phase you can use sacred knight garb as defensive ("goddess" garb slot in this video) equipped with heavy guard max since that garb upgrades normal heavy guard to heavy guard+ which basically repels all the damage from divine efflux and even damnatio memorae
how are you dealing stagger damage to him after his first stagger? I can easily do so the first time with aerora, but after that I hit him with Artemis' Arrows and Whirlwind kick (Masamune fully upgraded on my SoP class) and he doesn't recoil at all, nor can I stagger him a second time, even using overclock and elixirs. All that happens is me getting my face beat in after the first stagger no matter how much damage I deal to him. Hell Aeronite was a piece of cake on hard mode next to this.
1 question like i got a main dos 5k stag a main mage 5k but i use my tank as a mage as well in this set up did u have 2 guys with 5k strgh and whats the best way to get my punt to mac level
hy MasterLL, please tell me how to make status bravery when you spoil heavy slash/AA. i follow ure setup. i've also 5star heavy slash on my soldier of piece. but still brave state not shown up. did i miss the accecoris. sorry bad english
Heavy Slash has a rare optional ability called "commital" or something like that which will cast Bravery as a buff for 5 seconds when an option is used that consumes 40 or more points. You can obtain that rare ability by combining Heavy Slash skills together.
i have a question for you (masterLL)....i have the same sword as you ( Masamune ) using the same garb ( soldier of peace ), but why my attacks are always in the range of 180000-210000??? please answer my question...thank you
MasterLL is it possible to do without preta crown, full Magic power ( triple rods or if too risky double rods with a Sacred knight garb Heavy guard, or SOP with Heroic And also a suggestion... sacred knight garb is much better than Cyber jumpsuit... 75% plus anti magic from preta and also 15% extra magic resistant (from runic ring) is already enough against magic attacks since Sacred knight gives you enhanced guard from your Heavy guard level star or 5 you can easily repel even damnatio memorae without perfect guarding (basically you hold for the 2 divine efflux and then aerora 2 times for lending more time for stagger and then guard again when the volley is coming to you. the rest of the spell, yours is still the best because of Enaero... problem is you will be wrecked IF the starter is wind spirit, it will take much longer since WW is wind type attack. SO no Damage is very possible since you can guard all the damage (without being a pro on guarding damnatio memorae and using more ATB since you have to press more times for guarding the full volley) and you can knock him back on Wings of Destruction... It will be easy
NOTE TO ALL MY VIEWERS: As you noticed, I didn't put up any other videos of LR lately, but this is why I am asking you. Do you want me to put up the rest of my live-stream playthrough? The reason why I didn't put up any lately is because I don't know if anyone wants to see it or not as it just shows me speed-running through for quests and stuff. BUT I will still put up some other "special/boss" videos from LR (need to find it in my archives).. but I'm pretty much done with LR!
I can't even properly use guard to any monsters :( i was surprised i was able to finish the sidequests (including the hardest optional monster) and i really don't understand how gameplay really works.
master LL what skill/accessory or whatever you're using at the last phase coz you keep on getting spam bravery and vigilance every time you're using heavy slash? thanks!!
Is there anyway you could message the ability stats i am having the hardest time beating this guy. Like what auto abilities you have because my freaking atb gauge doesn't move anywhere near as fast as yours. Also does it matter what shield i use for the attacker Schema?
Auto Ability has no factor on my battles except for Committal (on my Heavy Slash). I didn't have any shield on my Attacker Set except for Cloud's bracelet for looks. The bracelet has ZERO factor on the fight since all it does is boost my HP (doesn't give any other stats). You should have at least 150-160 ATB Speed for all your set, while Highwind Charm helps for my "Soldier of Peace" since it gives it to 200 ATB-Speed.
WOW. That was amazing.... so bascially use Fira and Aerora until stagger, them whirlwind kick and heavy slash him till he dies! ...Nice. I'll try that this time :) Been trying to beat him in NewGame+ but I can never get him staggered so it takes like 30mins... so frustrating.
+YpmuJ to stagger the final form is already hard..u hv to time your defense accordingly otherwise your chain will break. so thats why they gave a long stagger period.. just like aeronite.. u have to stagger it 4 times.. the final stagger last 3 minutes.. the only time to kill it
***** Ok, also, how do you get the Plus version of Bhunivelze on hard mode? What conditions do you have to meet? Also, ive heard many versions of how to unlock the Ultimate dungeon, but i want to ask someone who's actually played the game. Do you need to have done 40 or 50 sidequests along with the main quests to unlock the ultimate dungeon and epilogue scene?
***** Just be on Hard Mode and you'll fight the + version of the final boss. 40 sidequest at least (Prayers do NOT count) to unlock the Ultimate Dungeon supposedly, but you should be able to do at least 50-60 before the 13th day though (that's how much I had iirc about 60-70). If you did at least 50-60, it should guaranteed, because I've been hearing some people doing 40 sidequests and not unlocking the 14th day. But I know some few JP players that only did 37-40 sidequests and unlocked the 14th day... so I don't know if there is a hidden "formula" to determine how to unlock it.
Got it, thank you for the tip. Ill just try to do 50 sidequests, although i already failed 2 because i forgot about them and they were supposed to be continued at a certain time when i was preoccupied with story quests. XD But now that ive done all 5 sotyr quests and am on day 7, i should have enough time to fulfill the rest.
Also, one last thing. If you use Cronostasis before you fight a last one in the dead dunes, does it last through out battle or dissapear before you fight? If so, does it last a few minutes like it usually does in the overworld or does it last through out the entire battle(as in it doesnt dissapear until after the battle's end)?
Punt Level 5 is easy to get in Hard mode, just farm Skata'ne and synthesis them to level star.. then equip it to Martial monk so your level star Punt is enhance and making huge damage
i got the same stats , weapons accesorys customization like you masterll ... but why u make soo muchhhh damage to him ? and how do u always delay his attacks?? i make with artemis arrow like 200.000 till 300.000 damage but u do 700.000
Do you have the capped 5k ATK? You can easily get it from fully upgrading the Masamune type weapons. Interrupting his attack is because he is fully debuffed with his weakness. The Locket Pendant only allows me to do an extra "finisher" at the end of my Kick, otherwise, it is pretty much "Just Attack" timing for those huge damage.
yes i have 5k attack ...i got really exact the same stats weapons equipments customazation like u but i never make that damage like u ...and yea i do the " just in time " attack 2 but still dnt get that crazy damage haha i dont know what i do wrong
Masamune is expensive to get, and even more so to cap out. The only realistic way to beat Bhunivelze is to get Ultima Weapon and Shield. That's how I beat him for the first time, on Easy. Once.you beat him work your way up to Hard. I recommend this instead of going straight to Hard because it allows you to work on your second-best weapon. Capped out Masamune is easily the best weapon in terms of str, but it'll take all your attention.
Man I tell ya I think you musta done at least 2 runs on Hard mode cuz I have 5k-5.4k attack only been through hard mode once on Bhunivelza + and I only hit him 47k-558k with Martial Monk and 320k-425k with Soldier of Peace. ur Martial Monk Hits HARD as Hell 57k-891k damage. Insanity. It took my 8 minutes to kill this guy and it takes you less than 6 minutes.Pro.
Marcus Gabourel It's pretty impressive, true, but you, too, can achieve those sorts of brutal numbers off the bat, without Limit Break (so capped at 5k) ^.^ To get the nigh-on 800K AA hits like that is a culmination of a bunch of multiplicative factors all coming together, so, if you're getting 4-500K, then there's probably just a minor multiplying detail that you're missing somewhere. I only played through twice, once normal once on Hard, and could replicate this video fine with some practice. Nail down your Just timing, and try to get everything else to line up at once, and you'll get there, hehe. Things that are easy to miss: Is your AA (heavy slash) maxed out? Got Brave up? Enemy Debuffed from both His (from stagger), AND Yours? (they stack) Elemental exploit: LL is using that Aero bracelet for a reason.
Seriously how are you 'causing him to not use Wings of Destruction? I've been at this for almost a week and have yet to come up with a way to stop him from attacking with that.
Why is he using a Masamune instead of a second Heaven's Cloud? Chaos' Revenge with its stagger bonus is great, but I see no reason to use a non-ultimate weapon like Masamune. I guess money is not a problem for MasterLL. The only reason I can think of that the weapon does not matter anymore because his stats are at the limit and he is not playing on trancendence. I this case Masamune just looks awesome :-)
Hey MasterLL, your setups are probably the most elaborate setups I've seen in the XIII series and I've been following you since XIII-1 but I've been trying to five star God for decades and I just can't. I notice how you interrupted his attack at the beginning and for some reason I can't. And I have committal too. Are you attacking with Artemis Pierce to interrupt or what? ://
+Ѵįʀưḻẻṉϯ Fłøwḗṟ He used Enaero (adds Wind element to your attacks) when Bhunny is weak to Wind element, together with Deprotect (decreases defence) and Imperil (decreases elemental resistances) debuffs while spamming Whirlwind Kick and Artemis Arrows.
+Julius Chaesar thanks. thats what saving his time from guarding. my record is 10 min in hard mode.. using imperil, deprotect and 4 element strikes(with this i dont have to wait bhuni to begin with certain element to finish him). i only can get free bravery from splendid admiral garb, which i put chaos revenge and preta hood(saboteur schemata)
"Just Attack" is when you perfectly timed your attack you'll get bonus damage. You can tell because it makes a *zhing!* sound effect and Light will have a glowing orb shield around her. The timing for physical attacks is right when you're about to hit the enemy (obviously some attacks are faster than others). The timing for magic attacks is right when Light waves her hands when she tries to cast.
Hay man sorry I'm having trouble following your load out I know it a bit much but can u redo it in detail or even better make a vid of it because I'm not understanding
the Heavy Slash has a build in Ability called Committal is a rare ability you need to keep farming heavy slash to combine them till you get that special ability build in to it so happy farming :D "its a ability that trigger when you use a skill that cost 40 ATB and above so if you use heavy slash it trigger it"
Janhyua Just the same build with MasterLL except I used 4 warrior pots, 4phx, 1 ether, and x pots. I had a really hard time with him. He is even harder than aeronite for me. Tip: let's say you have thundara in your garb with Caius weapon and if at the start of the battle he's immune to thunder element, I automatically escape 'cause you won't stagger him quickly that way. If you don't kill him before he used his skill that starts with "G", he will change to a more physical form which is the hardest part so try to kill him ASAP. If you don't have the auto-bravery ability, try to spare 2 or 4 EP and 1 warrior potion for the last phase which is the hardest one to stagger. My 2 attackers have both 5k str and still ran out of items and died so spare some EPs and warrior pots.
im completely lost i have no idea what to do, im pretty much going around these side quests blind and i havent even gotten any good weapons because i cant seem to get the gil needed to get the better stuff, anyone have any advice im a beginner to these type of Final Fantasy
+Marcus Eagland i know this is a late answer, but if you still play this game, you can check the meonekton farming guide in order to get gil and buy the stuff you need
ok thanks Venom, i stopped playing FF13 LR for a while till i got the will to go back and im improving, i actually beat Bhunivelze on my 1st try on easy mode despite how nerve wracking that fight was. hell i even beat aeronite and erishkigal
To make this sound easier to understand, I beat this boss on New Game + on Normal, unlocking Hard Mode. I play Hard Mode ONCE, still couldn't beat him and now I'm starting a New Game + on Hard Mode. What are your recommendations? How do I get as powerful as you've shown on this video to defeat Bhunivelze once again on Hard Mode?
How are you negating Wings of Destruction? In the video it looks like you are interrupting him somehow NVM got it, just need to do a shitload of damage lol
Funny how you keep doing 150000+ damage and his HP bar is just like "nope"
yes for sure no miss any monster she wants destroy on the way
I loved this fight. Great music, great environment, and damn, Bhunivelze was one creepy god!
she kill… she not fight only!
yes only one damage never seen. Should get die not only fight
fool if you only heard his name your ears itching
1) Imperil + Deprotect + Elemental Attribute damage doubled the Cut Values of his attacks, enabling interruptions, which is why he was able to Arrow/Kick to interrupt the tier-3 spells and even Wings of Destruction. After Stagger, Bhuni gains Unprotected (+50% physical). Deprotect (+33% Physical) and Imperil (x 1.5 Elemental) resulted in 1.88*1.5, which exceeded 2x damage. Cut values of his attacks doubled, which is why Yellow numbers appeared when WW Kick and Artermis Arrows were casted, which exceeded all of Bhunivelze's Keep values of 95.

+Ward_Point Thanks for the analysis. I thought that the yellow numbers meant he was dealing damage while the enemy was staggered, like in 13-1 and in 13-2.
I don't think you have to perfect guard Heartless Angel? Sorry, been a while
+musicmaniack256 if u dont perfect guard Heartless Angel, u will end up with 1 hp after the attack. i dont know if normal guarding will reduce the damage though or still put your hp 1 one.
Actually i just did it with Sacred Knight garb... almost all attack can be guarded except for wings of destruction.. since you have to stagger it when he casted it like Ward_Point already explained.
Even Damnatio Memorae is 100% guarded by Sacred Knight with Heavy Guard max level
Wow, very well put
@BlackSilhouette but she is always happy with stone heart.. why it silhouette
3:51 perfect music timing
?
That damage being done per hit, holy crap
I could NOT beat this version to save my life. I thought I was screwed and would need to do another playthrough and try and tackle him then. I used your setup (as best I could since I was missing some stuff) and after a couple hours of trying I finally did it. Thank you SO MUCH for this video. I even got to finally experience the after credits scene. Good work! You're a real Lightning expert!
I know much of the hate for this game is cuz of the difficulty, but I actually really liked the combat system. It was different, new. It used the ATB system in a completely new way.
What difficulty
@Ismael Suliman Normal, if I remember right. It was a while ago. It was rough, but fun. I even beat Bunhivelze on my first NG+
Did this myself years ago. Very difficult. Respect to ya pal
i wouldn't mind seeing a play through considering how good you are
omfg i finally beat it on hardmode after 2 days of trying, gezz its hard as hell
Just to clarify, you cannot interrupt wings of destruction without the enaero item, full buff and debuff plus boss in thunder form (hard hitter 3 on both attackers as well)- any other conditions and you will fail to interrupt. hope that helps ppl who are frustrated. Just escape and reload if he does not choose thunder. 5k max str should be enough.
If you time your attacks right you should be able to interrupt every spell he casts during the enaero duration, which you should do aggressively to make sure he's taken down in this form before switching to physicals. You can overclock once or twice during this period and also once in its final form to induce stagger and still score almost a million 5 star rating.
Damn, benny got absolutely rekt.
Listen, LL is a G!!! Certified Final Fantasy G!!!
Forget the doubters on here - I mimicked the strategy laid out by LL and it worked first time.
so lucky the first element is thunder lol.
Its cool how lighting is the strongest mc in the entire franchise
Cant wait to play this, awesome vid lightning so strong 😲
You're a god at this game, I defeated Bhunivelze+ on normal mode by luck.
Probably the only boss where they change the fight for a bit in hard mode.
I never thought it would have like 4 phase in normal mode. I was freaked out lol.
The first chord is scary as fk. What a way to setup the final boss hehe
Thanks man! I beat his 1st 3 levels on Normal then totally bombed on his last phase...then again I only had around 9k HP so no wonder lol
Holy hell! This is awesome. I struggled with him on normal during my first playthrough. And this is on Hard? Pretty cool.
Yea, Hard Mode combines his Normal Mode Phases into 1, having all his abilites and stuff.
alittle he didn’t has level to win her at chess on last time the moggu pc saw
she saw he got damage after she leveled up to be a charmer among 10 box of 15 forms so get win as well.. But it means she look damn after using or use the “sacrifice or tributes” for trophy ah yes a bit hardly usual. Go down to lvl 1.. HP go down too.. But it ok.. he still under her control same she did to all in next places(wildlands) until he really finished. Like you move chess on table.. something have to be lose but can build in future.. worth that pricing
this one better than don’t let’s her see our weakpoints if want to win(if ya even can do it)
in real she didn’t sing souls songs from Vanilla but seems she did it or did all for maximon high lvl of weapon she needs
Lightning is the most powerful Final Fantasy Protagonist!!!
How are you buffing yourself with bravery and haste w/o using potions in this fight?
I can see that you played this games for a long time that why it's so easy for you
Also known as the Chuck Norris strategy.
I don't regret buying this. I feel like the English voice acting is very improved
"God...is defeated...by the children of men...?"
Nope. You were defeated by the Master!
What an improvement this fight was over the Japanese version. What were the tactics you used this time around masterLL? Do you just go all in and not give him opportunities to attack? Cause you seemed very aggressive in this fight.
My Just Timing for the Kick greatly improved, plus I was able to get some items I never gotten on my JP version, so I was able to take advantage of those said accessories to help improve my gameplay.
And yes, I was a lot more aggressive this time since I didn't want to mess around with his first Phase as much (I really hate his Physical Mode).
Punt is so useful!
I didn't know you could guard heartless angel. That would've helped a lot lol
Hey MasterLL thanks for the video it helped me achieve 5 stars on this battle:)
You're a pro gamer, is really difficult the fourth part
This strategy work. Thank you so much for uploading this
Thank you so much, I have finally beaten Bhunivelze+ :)
Hi MasterLL, How did the "Attacker", "Matrix" and "Goddess Mode" appeared on screen? I change my gard into Martial Monk is still stated Martial Monk on screen
Great Video! this looks like a great strategy that i'd like to try. I've been tinkering with diff ways of beating Bhuni and came across yours. any chance i could get a list of the "added effects" on all the Abilities on each of your Schema? it would most appreciated. thanks. and again, very very cool video!
I used your method Imperli and deprotect to make him weak to elemental attacks which works but then he started attacking me different from this video. I'm playing on hard plus. I have the same set up and it's total horse shit. All my weapons and shields are maxed and my stats are very high considering I went through the game 6 times on hard without beating this boss fight.
keep in mind you need to knock him back when doing first phase, when he uses monad beget, start hitting with artemis arrow and then more power on whirlwind kick, forcing him to skip wings of destruction... for final phase you can use sacred knight garb as defensive ("goddess" garb slot in this video) equipped with heavy guard max since that garb upgrades normal heavy guard to heavy guard+ which basically repels all the damage from divine efflux and even damnatio memorae
I know this s an old video but damn I never see heartless Angel Comming
how are you dealing stagger damage to him after his first stagger? I can easily do so the first time with aerora, but after that I hit him with Artemis' Arrows and Whirlwind kick (Masamune fully upgraded on my SoP class) and he doesn't recoil at all, nor can I stagger him a second time, even using overclock and elixirs. All that happens is me getting my face beat in after the first stagger no matter how much damage I deal to him. Hell Aeronite was a piece of cake on hard mode next to this.
1 question like i got a main dos 5k stag a main mage 5k but i use my tank as a mage as well in this set up did u have 2 guys with 5k strgh and whats the best way to get my punt to mac level
hy MasterLL, please tell me how to make status bravery when you spoil heavy slash/AA. i follow ure setup. i've also 5star heavy slash on my soldier of piece. but still brave state not shown up. did i miss the accecoris.
sorry bad english
Heavy Slash has a rare optional ability called "commital" or something like that which will cast Bravery as a buff for 5 seconds when an option is used that consumes 40 or more points. You can obtain that rare ability by combining Heavy Slash skills together.
Are you using 2 heavens cloud ???
i have a question for you (masterLL)....i have the same sword as you ( Masamune )
using the same garb ( soldier of peace ), but why my attacks are always in the range of 180000-210000??? please answer my question...thank you
With 4 ethers and 4 turbo ethers, my Black Mage is going to beat his ass later!! Nuke Death!!!
When you stagger him in his second stage, is he pretty much down for the rest of the fight or does he recover in a certain amount of time.
MasterLL is it possible to do without preta crown, full Magic power ( triple rods or if too risky double rods with a Sacred knight garb Heavy guard, or SOP with Heroic
And also a suggestion... sacred knight garb is much better than Cyber jumpsuit... 75% plus anti magic from preta and also 15% extra magic resistant (from runic ring) is already enough against magic attacks
since Sacred knight gives you enhanced guard from your Heavy guard level star or 5 you can easily repel even damnatio memorae without perfect guarding (basically you hold for the 2 divine efflux and then aerora 2 times for lending more time for stagger and then guard again when the volley is coming to you. the rest of the spell, yours is still the best because of Enaero... problem is you will be wrecked IF the starter is wind spirit, it will take much longer since WW is wind type attack.
SO no Damage is very possible since you can guard all the damage (without being a pro on guarding damnatio memorae and using more ATB since you have to press more times for guarding the full volley) and you can knock him back on Wings of Destruction... It will be easy
NOTE TO ALL MY VIEWERS:
As you noticed, I didn't put up any other videos of LR lately, but this is why I am asking you. Do you want me to put up the rest of my live-stream playthrough?
The reason why I didn't put up any lately is because I don't know if anyone wants to see it or not as it just shows me speed-running through for quests and stuff.
BUT I will still put up some other "special/boss" videos from LR (need to find it in my archives).. but I'm pretty much done with LR!
this was fun to watch yeah!
I can't even properly use guard to any monsters :( i was surprised i was able to finish the sidequests (including the hardest optional monster) and i really don't understand how gameplay really works.
master LL what skill/accessory or whatever you're using at the last phase coz you keep on getting spam bravery and vigilance every time you're using heavy slash? thanks!!
I have the Heaven's cloud and it's not making him recoil? How can I recoil him? Also What are your base stats for lightning?
2.100.000 hp. Okay ?
Is there anyway you could message the ability stats i am having the hardest time beating this guy. Like what auto abilities you have because my freaking atb gauge doesn't move anywhere near as fast as yours. Also does it matter what shield i use for the attacker Schema?
Auto Ability has no factor on my battles except for Committal (on my Heavy Slash).
I didn't have any shield on my Attacker Set except for Cloud's bracelet for looks. The bracelet has ZERO factor on the fight since all it does is boost my HP (doesn't give any other stats).
You should have at least 150-160 ATB Speed for all your set, while Highwind Charm helps for my "Soldier of Peace" since it gives it to 200 ATB-Speed.
***** Alright thanks. It really helped did it on first try lol
you are the god slayer
whats a god to a non-believer anyway?
WOW. That was amazing.... so bascially use Fira and Aerora until stagger, them whirlwind kick and heavy slash him till he dies! ...Nice. I'll try that this time :) Been trying to beat him in NewGame+ but I can never get him staggered so it takes like 30mins... so frustrating.
Can you upload your Lightning Item Build? Thanks xD
I'll post it tomorrow or so.

Thanks a lot!!!
why your damage is that strong & slowly to decreasing & how to obtain upgrading points to upgrad my weapons can u tell me +masterll :)
to stagger Bhunivelze last phase you only used Fira and Aerora ? im kind stuck there in normal mode
How did he stY staggered for so long?
+YpmuJ to stagger the final form is already hard..u hv to time your defense accordingly otherwise your chain will break. so thats why they gave a long stagger period.. just like aeronite.. u have to stagger it 4 times.. the final stagger last 3 minutes.. the only time to kill it
I cant break him! but i only use firaga ,blizzaga,etc. so fira is better hm?
@MasterLL How do yo uget Lightning's limit break? I have no clue, and it would really help me against Caius.
You get Scene Drive (Army of One) at the Ark on Day 08
***** Ok, also, how do you get the Plus version of Bhunivelze on hard mode? What conditions do you have to meet? Also, ive heard many versions of how to unlock the Ultimate dungeon, but i want to ask someone who's actually played the game. Do you need to have done 40 or 50 sidequests along with the main quests to unlock the ultimate dungeon and epilogue scene?
*****
Just be on Hard Mode and you'll fight the + version of the final boss.
40 sidequest at least (Prayers do NOT count) to unlock the Ultimate Dungeon supposedly, but you should be able to do at least 50-60 before the 13th day though (that's how much I had iirc about 60-70).
If you did at least 50-60, it should guaranteed, because I've been hearing some people doing 40 sidequests and not unlocking the 14th day.
But I know some few JP players that only did 37-40 sidequests and unlocked the 14th day... so I don't know if there is a hidden "formula" to determine how to unlock it.
Got it, thank you for the tip. Ill just try to do 50 sidequests, although i already failed 2 because i forgot about them and they were supposed to be continued at a certain time when i was preoccupied with story quests. XD But now that ive done all 5 sotyr quests and am on day 7, i should have enough time to fulfill the rest.
Also, one last thing. If you use Cronostasis before you fight a last one in the dead dunes, does it last through out battle or dissapear before you fight? If so, does it last a few minutes like it usually does in the overworld or does it last through out the entire battle(as in it doesnt dissapear until after the battle's end)?
wow its like bhunivelze wasn't even trying
what are your exact setups? no matter what i try i can't beat him the other bosses where super weak and easy compared to him
You always come up with the best strategies! Thank you!
What things are you using? I just beat him on my virgin run on Normal... so I have a ways to wait before I get back here.
How are you gaurding all the magic attacks?
I've played through this game twice now and still can't beat this boss or most enemies in the final area... ridiculous!
Were you get all these fighting combats
How do I get the two super strong martial monk attacks? I only have the PUNCH LV 2
Punt Level 5 is easy to get in Hard mode, just farm Skata'ne and synthesis them to level star.. then equip it to Martial monk so your level star Punt is enhance and making huge damage
use soldier of peace and put heavy slash to make a new ability artemis's aroows
& how can i reach the final day to buy the spiny weapon in day 00 (the final day)
***** how do you interrupt his Wings of Destruction?
i got the same stats , weapons accesorys customization like you masterll ... but why u make soo muchhhh damage to him ? and how do u always delay his attacks?? i make with artemis arrow like 200.000 till 300.000 damage but u do 700.000
ah maybe because of the locket pendat+ accesory ?
Do you have the capped 5k ATK? You can easily get it from fully upgrading the Masamune type weapons.
Interrupting his attack is because he is fully debuffed with his weakness.
The Locket Pendant only allows me to do an extra "finisher" at the end of my Kick, otherwise, it is pretty much "Just Attack" timing for those huge damage.
yes i have 5k attack ...i got really exact the same stats weapons equipments customazation like u but i never make that damage like u ...and yea i do the " just in time " attack 2 but still dnt get that crazy damage haha i dont know what i do wrong
Masamune is expensive to get, and even more so to cap out. The only realistic way to beat Bhunivelze is to get Ultima Weapon and Shield. That's how I beat him for the first time, on Easy. Once.you beat him work your way up to Hard. I recommend this instead of going straight to Hard because it allows you to work on your second-best weapon. Capped out Masamune is easily the best weapon in terms of str, but it'll take all your attention.
This game was fun, but so weird.
I finally killed him! Well now I'm going to do another new game plus on hard
Yo. That ish was amazing. I will try this tomorrow. I really hate Bhunivelze+ . . .
Man I tell ya I think you musta done at least 2 runs on Hard mode cuz I have 5k-5.4k attack only been through hard mode once on Bhunivelza + and I only hit him 47k-558k with Martial Monk and 320k-425k with Soldier of Peace. ur Martial Monk Hits HARD as Hell 57k-891k damage. Insanity. It took my 8 minutes to kill this guy and it takes you less than 6 minutes.Pro.
scratch that. 4 minutes.... 38 seconds =|
Marcus Gabourel
It's pretty impressive, true, but you, too, can achieve those sorts of brutal numbers off the bat, without Limit Break (so capped at 5k) ^.^ To get the nigh-on 800K AA hits like that is a culmination of a bunch of multiplicative factors all coming together, so, if you're getting 4-500K, then there's probably just a minor multiplying detail that you're missing somewhere. I only played through twice, once normal once on Hard, and could replicate this video fine with some practice. Nail down your Just timing, and try to get everything else to line up at once, and you'll get there, hehe.
Things that are easy to miss:
Is your AA (heavy slash) maxed out?
Got Brave up?
Enemy Debuffed from both His (from stagger), AND Yours? (they stack)
Elemental exploit: LL is using that Aero bracelet for a reason.
Seriously how are you 'causing him to not use Wings of Destruction? I've been at this for almost a week and have yet to come up with a way to stop him from attacking with that.
wat happened at 0:36, how did you cancel his skill there
Why is he using a Masamune instead of a second Heaven's Cloud?
Chaos' Revenge with its stagger bonus is great, but I see no reason to use a non-ultimate weapon like Masamune. I guess money is not a problem for MasterLL.
The only reason I can think of that the weapon does not matter anymore because his stats are at the limit and he is not playing on trancendence. I this case Masamune just looks awesome :-)
i have a request if possible... in the description can you put in your ability's (lvl and what goes where).. that would be a massive help! :)
Honestly the only three abilities that is maxed is my Kick, Heavy Slash and Heroic Guard, the rest are lv4 or so iirc.
***** but we dont know that ;) we'll.. now i do:) and by kick you mean the whirlwind kick aka. Punt?
i'm so lazy at the start of this game so i just came here to see how it goes ...
Hey MasterLL, your setups are probably the most elaborate setups I've seen in the XIII series and I've been following you since XIII-1
but I've been trying to five star God for decades and I just can't.
I notice how you interrupted his attack at the beginning and for some reason I can't.
And I have committal too. Are you attacking with Artemis Pierce to interrupt or what? ://
+Ѵįʀưḻẻṉϯ Fłøwḗṟ He used Enaero (adds Wind element to your attacks) when Bhunny is weak to Wind element, together with Deprotect (decreases defence) and Imperil (decreases elemental resistances) debuffs while spamming Whirlwind Kick and Artemis Arrows.
+白崎尊 Thank you!
+Ѵįʀưḻẻṉϯ Fłøwḗṟ you're welcome!
But you used the DLC, though. Lol. Great vid. btw.
Artemis' Arrow became Heavy Slash during 2nd phase. Does that always happen?
Artemis Pierce/Arrow only works on the ground, in the air it is just Heavy Slash.
HELP can someone tell me the auto ability of his heavy slash? that feeds bravery and anti-curse? no wonder hes not moved with magic
+mohd noh hussin comittal? rare ability synthesis....
+Julius Chaesar thanks. thats what saving his time from guarding. my record is 10 min in hard mode.. using imperil, deprotect and 4 element strikes(with this i dont have to wait bhuni to begin with certain element to finish him). i only can get free bravery from splendid admiral garb, which i put chaos revenge and preta hood(saboteur schemata)
How are you stopping Bhuni from using Wings of Destruction? I don't get it.
How many playthrough did it tack you get that powerful?
+justin gentzler As the video info stated, this is my first run.
+MasterLL How was this your first run if hard mode is only unlocked after completing the game once?
+Kyle Liddell First run of Hard Mode.
+justin gentzler but.. preta crown is the 3rd of preta hood.... ??????
白崎尊 okay i get it now. its vigilance that i was looking for
More proof Claire is stronger than Cloud
MasterLL please can u explain the just attack method , i just dont get it :D !
"Just Attack" is when you perfectly timed your attack you'll get bonus damage.
You can tell because it makes a *zhing!* sound effect and Light will have a glowing orb shield around her.
The timing for physical attacks is right when you're about to hit the enemy (obviously some attacks are faster than others).
The timing for magic attacks is right when Light waves her hands when she tries to cast.
How can I interupt his Wing of Destruction
Hay man sorry I'm having trouble following your load out I know it a bit much but can u redo it in detail or even better make a vid of it because I'm not understanding
***** how can you trigger bravery almost all the time?
the Heavy Slash has a build in Ability called Committal is a rare ability you need to keep farming heavy slash to combine them till you get that special ability build in to it so happy farming :D "its a ability that trigger when you use a skill that cost 40 ATB and above so if you use heavy slash it trigger it"
Janhyua Thank you so much for that info. I just finished hard mode though. >.
***** wow i haven finished it care to show your build :O i am having alot of trouble staggering the boss
Janhyua Just the same build with MasterLL except I used 4 warrior pots, 4phx, 1 ether, and x pots. I had a really hard time with him. He is even harder than aeronite for me.
Tip: let's say you have thundara in your garb with Caius weapon and if at the start of the battle he's immune to thunder element, I automatically escape 'cause you won't stagger him quickly that way. If you don't kill him before he used his skill that starts with "G", he will change to a more physical form which is the hardest part so try to kill him ASAP.
If you don't have the auto-bravery ability, try to spare 2 or 4 EP and 1 warrior potion for the last phase which is the hardest one to stagger. My 2 attackers have both 5k str and still ran out of items and died so spare some EPs and warrior pots.
Hi thanks for this video i was able to defeat him with lower stats and weapons
Even so that 900000k dmg SO FCKING GOOD GG BRO
im completely lost i have no idea what to do, im pretty much going around these side quests blind and i havent even gotten any good weapons because i cant seem to get the gil needed to get the better stuff, anyone have any advice im a beginner to these type of Final Fantasy
+Marcus Eagland i know this is a late answer, but if you still play this game, you can check the meonekton farming guide in order to get gil and buy the stuff you need
cool, i dont want to try the hard mode unless im sure i wont lose so badly, so its constant farming on normal mode for me
that's alright, but keep in mind though that some things (eg. weapons and other stuff) are available only on hard mode
ok thanks Venom, i stopped playing FF13 LR for a while till i got the will to go back and im improving, i actually beat Bhunivelze on my 1st try on easy mode despite how nerve wracking that fight was. hell i even beat aeronite and erishkigal
nice! me too, yesterday i finished the game in hard mode. though i have to say bhunivelze+ was a pain to kill...
I must acquire your abilities MasterLL, I made it through Hard Mode but my stats are possibly nowhere to your level. Did you start over many times?
To make this sound easier to understand, I beat this boss on New Game + on Normal, unlocking Hard Mode. I play Hard Mode ONCE, still couldn't beat him and now I'm starting a New Game + on Hard Mode. What are your recommendations? How do I get as powerful as you've shown on this video to defeat Bhunivelze once again on Hard Mode?
Ur pretty better than me on this battle. I suck at the battle sometimes.
How are you negating Wings of Destruction? In the video it looks like you are interrupting him somehow
NVM got it, just need to do a shitload of damage lol
the list of everything you use please
How did you get to do Hard Mode for your first playthrough?
My JP save is compatible with the EN version, which is very surprising and rare to see that happen too.
Y-You make it look so easy,,,,,,
