DJ: Honestly, you should really just grind dungeons until you have 80 stamina or so. I remember my first few weeks playing, I couldn't even really afford to do daily dungeons until I had a decent stamina stash, and then had no real need of doing so until after. How much of that was a quality of life thing to assuage my Timebux OCD is left as an exercise to the reader. If you're hellbent on the Yuna event's blank MC2, you will probably have to spend mythril.
Honestly, if you're able to get, R3Taunt/Retaliate, since you're running Gilgamesh you may be able to squeeze out Agrias' MC2 if you're willing to blow the mythril. Ramza's is probably out of your reach unless you can get Power BD AND Protectga and are willing to blow even more mythril. So, yeah, probably out of your reach.
Enough about you, more about me.
Gafgarion and Weigraf down, Ramza and Agrias' MC2s get. I'm 1000% sure that it's just the OST + Nostalgia but these fights were much more fun than FF2's. Admittedly, neither were more interesting than the Emperor, but meeeeeh I just couldn't be arsed. I did Gafgarion much earlier today. Wasn't hard and the only interesting thing about it is that one of my RWs switched to Scream and I used that instead of SG. Hoooly shit, 3 physical fighters dealing 8k~ with physicals after armor break. While hasted. That SSB be legit, yo.
Weigraf I just finished. Party was
Ramza (Power BD, Armor BD), Katana Damage 1.2x, Masamune/So Kai Armlet/FFT Bracer
Aeris (Diaga, Curaga), nothing interesting
Gilgy (Indoor Spell, Wind Jump), Protectga ribbon
Garnet (Valefor, Curaja), nothing interesting
Agrias (Come at , Drain blade), HP Down -> Damage Up, stuff
Went less for being super optimal and more for playing around with the freedom Agrias' skillset gives to see if I could beat a +++ boss like this (after all, if I lost I could just optimize and win it easily. It didn't look like a hard fight). I played around with having Ramza sing Power Song before I remembered having both of his breakdowns hit was a medal req. Fortunately Garnet's default SB is a shitty version of that so the idea was still there. Really wanted to see how well the Draw Attack + Drain Blade with the HP down->Damage up RM fared. It was no Come At Me Bro but it is waaay less boring. Gilgamesh's wind jump was mostly to see if it would hit Weigraf while he was "moved away". It did! Not nearly as good as just having a mage, but hey, science. With that, Ramza and Zack's SBs, and the free 5* ball, I now have ways to deal with that gimmick if using Terra is sub optimal.
That having been said playing around made the fight needlessly difficult and I missed the mastery. It wasn't ever overwhelming, but... Blood Suck Strats don't get around his counters, and counters aren't affected by Taunt and they always seemed to proc status at the absolute worst times. Especially annoying was when Weigraf was at <10% health and silenced my mages.
I'll go back in srs bzns mode and get mastery EZ though. Just to guarantee mastery I'll probably just go straight Come At Me Bro strats, swap Agrias for Terra flinging dualcast -aja spells, and be booooooring. I will probably pop a bit of a chub at Gilgamesh countering Weigraf's 4x Strike attack though. Agrias tanking that then Blood Sucking didn't have nearly the same unf factor.
After today's luck Ramza now has a basically permanent spot on my Go Time team thanks to his burst damage and Support 5. His RM2 ain't bad either, all skills give more SB gauge. Getting him to L80 or near enough that I don't feel like I'm wasting EXP but don't have him gimped is now top priority. I'll probably run him and Garnet as a duo next Sunday. Since both he and Sephiroth compete for my Masamune Sephy is probably getting bumped more often than not for Gilgy if I need muscle.
Agrias' skillset synergizes incredibly well (Knight/Spellblade is wonderful and WM4+ is almost the best skillset in the game even with kinda crap mind. Won't be doing any healing, but definitely works for de/buffs), but I unfortunately don't have any 5* swords (almost to the point of frustration), and she can't use anything but swords and Daggers. My 5* Assassin's knife will work for now but she'd really be much better with something with a good attack score. Her niche is unique enough that she won't ever be useless but she will probably wind up always playing second string to Gilgy for the time being. Still, once I get a 5* sword I'm going on a 4* Spellblade honing spree.
Lessee... Drain Blade/Draw Attack made me briefly consider upgrading Drain Dive for Gilgy, but the reqs are all Greater Orbs that are currently in very high demand (Lightning/Wind/Dark) for me.
Not worth it when I need Wind for basically any non-buff WM and Dark for eventual Ruinga (i really wish I hadn't gotten R3 quake. I did not know about Ruinga. I now check my other options a lot more carefully), and Lightning is getting upgraded for R2 Full Break, or possibly turned into R4 Thundaja.
FFX2 dungeons got my FF10 scrubz up to L20, so good for them. This game actually has really good music, and that has made the fights pretty enjoyable despite never playing the game. Enough so that had I still had a PS2 and time I would be kinda tempted to try it out. Fenrir liked it, after all.
Waiting on the EDIT: Velius victory videos to come out to tackle him, but he looks waaaaaaaay more doable than the Elemental Gigases, even with the adds. Worse to worst, I craft R1 Meteo finally and brute force it.
